Even if you simplify the available components to the extreme, launching a single Star Defense Cannon is still an extremely complex task.
Hundreds of mech soldiers must work together in a coordinated manner to launch the aircraft successfully.
Fortunately, their enemies gave them enough time, and the Star Defense Cannon was designed with sufficient tolerance for error, ensuring that even if some parts of the system malfunctioned or failed, the Star Defense Cannon could still be fired.
Soon after, the muzzles of the nine star defense cannons lit up with white light.
The white light was gathering, growing increasingly dazzling.
boom!
A white light was emitted.
However, these white lights are not in the shape of a straight cylinder, but rather unfold in the shape of a frustum, covering as much of the area in front of them as possible.
Because outer space is so vast, if we only focus on range, we will miss many enemies.
So it was designed the way it is now, sacrificing range in exchange for greater area of damage.
The energy beams fired simultaneously from the nine star defense cannons completely illuminated the space.
It completely obscured the brilliance of those "meteors".
As the blinding light slowly faded, a completely empty space appeared before everyone's eyes.
There were no "shooting stars" or even any meteorites.
The area covered by the energy beam was completely wiped out.
Everyone was stunned; it was the first time they had ever witnessed the power of the Star Defense Cannon.
Because firing a single Star Defense Cannon requires too many Pure Star Stones, in order to save "bullets," the Star Defense Cannon was only test-fired once from its research and development to its construction.
That event was highly confidential, known only to a few people, including the "General Regent," and ordinary soldiers naturally had no chance to see it.
"it is good!"
"too strong!"
Everyone immediately cheered.
With such powerful weapons, they will surely be able to defeat the enemy!
However, the "General Manager" did not look optimistic. Instead, he frowned slightly and looked into the depths of the starry sky.
A short while later, another group of "shooting stars" appeared deep in the starry sky.
The soldiers' cheers gradually subsided.
Yes, they wiped out the first wave of "meteors".
But their enemies are not just the first wave.
They had no idea how many enemies there were or when they would stop invading their homeland.
Fortunately, their weapons were able to eliminate these enemies.
They can also fire eight times the Star Defense Cannon, meaning they can eliminate eight waves of enemies.
This... should be enough, right?
These extraterrestrial alien species can't possibly be infinite; surely eliminating such a large number wouldn't be enough to wipe them all out?
The mech soldiers remained on high alert, a hint of doubt in their hearts.
A short while later, the "General Manager's" second order arrived.
The Star Defense Cannon has been fired for the second time.
After eliminating the enemy this time, the soldiers did not call out; they gazed nervously into the depths of the starry sky.
Sure enough, after a while, a third wave of extraterrestrial beings, like shooting stars, flew over.
The soldiers' emotions began to falter.
The fourth wave, the fifth wave, the sixth wave...
By the seventh wave, fear began to creep into the soldiers' hearts.
If they use up all nine of their Star Defense Cannon's firing opportunities, how will they withstand the tenth wave of enemies?
If there's an eleventh wave of enemies, a twelfth wave of enemies, a thirteenth wave of enemies...
Thinking about this, many people shudder.
The "Chief Executive" had a slight frown on his brow, which was imperceptible to the ordinary soldiers, but he knew that although wave after wave of aliens had been eliminated with each shot, each wave of enemies was stronger than the last.
The "Chief Executive" suddenly focused his gaze on the depths of the starry sky.
Among this new wave of enemies, there is one that is different from "Meteor"... the Moon?
A blood moon glowing red...?
254. The power of the "Grand Ruler"! Imprisoning the "Blood Moon"! 4k
It is called the moon because it is much larger than the other "shooting stars" around it.
Moreover, unlike other "meteors," it does not have a long flame tail, and its movement is not like that of a "meteor" streaking across the sky.
At first glance, the "blood moon" seemed to be moving very slowly, but upon closer inspection, it appeared to be traveling in parallel with the "meteor" as they approached.
There is a contradictory feeling of slowness but actually speed.
"Space..." the "General Regent" said in surprise, "It's folded."
He sensed that the "blood moon" was extraordinary.
The reason why that "blood moon" appeared slow but was actually fast was because the space it was in was folded, compressing the distance of space, so even at a slow speed, it could still keep up with the "meteor".
The Star Defense Cannon was being prepared in the same manner as before. Although some fear had arisen in their hearts, the soldiers still believed that this was just another repeat of the previous incidents.
The "General Regency" felt a vague unease, but he did not stop preparing and firing the Star Defense Cannon.
Because he couldn't yet determine where this unease came from or how to resolve it.
boom.
Another round of shooting.
The "meteor" was once again obliterated.
Gu Ran frowned as he watched the horde of aliens being destroyed, then suddenly looked toward the location of the Star Defense Cannon.
Of the nine star defense cannons, only five were fired; the other four remained completely silent!
This is not the final shot yet, so there is no problem with insufficient "ammunition".
There must have been an accident with those four space defense cannons!
The "general manager's" heart sank.
The light from the Star Defense Cannon slowly faded.
The extraterrestrial creatures within the light were revealed. Because the four space defense cannons malfunctioned and failed to fire, more than 40% of the extraterrestrial creatures remained.
The "blood moon" followed unhurriedly among the group of forty percent of the alien species.
"What's going on? How come there are so many different species?"
"what happened?!"
"Ah! They're coming!"
Should we continue firing the Star Defense Cannon?
Humanity's defenses were thrown into chaos.
Apart from the "general manager" who felt uneasy and made some speculations, no one expected things to change like this.
"The first, third, fourth, and ninth space defense cannons failed to fire. What happened? Where is the base commander? Get them back on the line immediately!"
The commander in charge of directing the launch of the Star Defense Cannon immediately questioned the communications officer beside him.
"Report, General Ren Ling! There has been no response from the first, third, fourth, and ninth star-defense giant cannon bases!"
"General, shall we continue sending communications?"
The correspondent felt cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
Ren Ling was a middle-aged man with a square face. He looked at the alien species that still had 40% of its original size remaining on the screen, paused for a moment, and then quickly said:
"Keep sending communications, keep sending them, don't stop."
Ren Ling sighed.
He then immediately turned to the communications officer on the other side and said, "Where is the Chief Administrator? Report the situation here to the Chief Administrator and ask him if we should continue firing the Star Defense Cannon to eliminate the remaining extraterrestrial aliens?"
The Star Defense Cannon has only two shots left, and each shot is extremely precious.
Once humanity has used these two attacks, it will be unable to launch such an attack again for a short period of time.
We would have to excavate new starstone veins and sacrifice several powerful forces that have existed for millennia before we could launch such an attack again.
This mutation has caused these alien species to break through the blockade line set up by humans using space defense cannons.
If we want to use the Star Defense Cannon to wipe out the remaining 40% of the aliens, we must adjust the Star Defense Cannon, which will take a lot of effort.
