Colonia Storm Tour

Walker.com AI reminded users to coordinate the ideas of the ship girls to avoid accidental harm.

"Yes!"

The ship girls responded in unison, their doubts vanishing as they focused on dealing with the Skybreaker interceptor. They had been thinking about providing support artillery fire when they saw the Purifiers fighting the Annihilation Death Warriors, but now that the Walker AI had sent a notification, they no longer needed to consider that.

Why was it Walker.com AI that not Lin Haiyuan's notification? They all knew that Lin Haiyuan was guiding energy to break the seal and rescue the Exile key, which was crucial to fighting the Ring Messenger. Therefore, they had no doubts about Walker.com AI's notification, let alone the fact that an AI was commanding their "human" troops.

=============================

Judging from the self-destruction contract, it seems that the survivors hiding on planets not marked by the Void Realm to avoid being eliminated was more like a deliberate act by the God of the Round. Otherwise, why would the Punisher leave the survivors to be eliminated last?

Let players achieve victory in another way, provided they become the last surviving empire in the game.

Chapter Thirty-Five: A Rapid Sprint (VII)

While the two newly built defensive lines, which were still being reinforced with additional defensive units, were engaged in fierce battles with the attacking Ring Envoy forces, Lin Haiyuan's side was also making more progress as time passed.

The mysterious energy drawn from the Mystic Pillar is continuously flowing into the Emerald Key, as evidenced by the increasingly intense light emanating from the Emerald Key's green stripes.

However, this is not a game, and there will be no progress bar with a description and percentage displayed at the top or top right corner.

However, Lin Haiyuan didn't have time to ask. He needed to concentrate on guiding the mysterious energy inside the six secret energy pillars into the Emerald Key. But Exile was quite considerate in reminding him of something.

"Keep it up, psionicist, the Emerald Key is already 35% charged."

Her gentle, mature voice is invigorating.

While most people might not be able to discern anything from her words, Lin Haiyuan instinctively sensed the presence of psychic energy within them.

Lin Haiyuan had also used mental powers to do similar things, but strictly speaking, he didn't buy into that approach; that kind of encouragement wasn't very effective.

Lin Haiyuan did not answer, and continued to focus on guiding the mysterious energy flowing from the secret energy pillar into the jade key.

Meanwhile, in the virtual world of Aquamarine Star, the Agent received a report about the Virtual Crystal Core.

"Acting Agent, the energy charging of the columnar object is estimated to be nearly half complete."

The agent remained silent upon hearing this, continuing to observe the battle unfolding on the ground, in the sky, and in space.

On the ground battlefield, their own army of Annihilation Warriors, Quadruped Hunters, Deathbringers, and Void Titans suffered heavy losses as they were held back by the enemy's strange hovering vehicles and self-propelled artillery.

Especially when faced with those battlefield defense facilities that have a straightforward or bizarre appearance, even the most powerful Deathbringers and Void Giants seem somewhat powerless in the face of their attacks.

First, there are those Deathbringers with square-barreled turrets who know how to focus fire on them, capable of turning them into mist and disappearing within seconds; even reinforced barriers cannot withstand that attack.

Finally, there's what looks like a close-in weapon system that integrates missiles and artillery. They know better than anyone that if they remove one of the Void Colossus's legs, this enormous, imposing creature will collapse and become useless.

The few Annihilation Soldiers who manage to sprint to the enemy's position will be wiped out again by a large number of twin turrets using energy bullets and high-explosive grenades. When the Annihilation Soldiers who actually break through the fire line are intercepted by petite women with strikingly similar appearances and figures.

These women, suspected to be clones, wield weapons far superior to the psionic blades of their Annihilation Legion. When they strike their targets, these weapons unleash powerful lightning strikes and stun the affected individuals.

The petite woman inevitably aroused the agent's desire, but with a major battle raging, there was no time for such thoughts.

The Destroyer Warships, Decay Warships, and Skybreaker Carriers that assisted in the attack on the enemy's defensive lines above the troops did not achieve the expected good results.

The enemy not only possesses powerful ground attack weapons, but also a large number of equally formidable air defense weapons to counter their air force units and attacks.

Those women, all with identical appearances, fox ears, and long guns, seemed to possess weapons that lacked power, unable to destroy small creatures like the Tianba interceptor in one shot. However, their greatest advantage was that they hovered in the air without any apparent support, shooting down the interceptors released by the Tianba aircraft carrier with concentrated firepower, much like shooting at targets on a firing range.

Among the team were ship girls he had seen on Aquamarine Star, who were now using brand-new railgun equipment and electromagnetic bombs to destroy his Skybreaker interceptors.

So this guy was just like me, eyeing those ship girls all along. No wonder he kept ruining my plans on Aquamarine. That was his first thought upon seeing this.

The particle energy bombs and decay bombs of the Decayer warship are even more troublesome, as they can be quickly destroyed by the rapidly reloading twin laser tanks. At the same time, there is also a tank with a bird's head as a turret that fires a unique ice-blue ray to destroy energy bombs and even interceptors.

He witnessed firsthand the consequences of an interceptor being hit by that icy blue ray: it was frozen and shattered into ice fragments, vanishing into nothingness.

Meanwhile, the Destroyer warships, whose attacks could not be intercepted by the point defense system, suffered the most intense concentrated fire. The black and silver anti-aircraft turrets that looked like mohawks fired ice-blue rays that could effectively destroy plasma shields and then freeze holes in the hull, quickly leaving it riddled with holes and destroyed.

Knowing that the enemy had to prioritize destroying the Destroyer warships, their most powerful fixed anti-aircraft firepower was focused on attacking the Destroyer warships, while the Skybreaker carrier and the Decayer warship, which were constantly being intercepted, were largely ignored.

The battle, originally planned to destroy the enemy flagship and fighter jets and then launch ground attacks, has now devolved into an unbearably tense and stalemate.

Although their own warships were numerous and of good quality, they were still struggling against the overwhelming barrage of plasma cannon shells from the enemy flagship. A few shells hitting the plasma shields in the short term were no big deal, but over time, as the saying goes, "many ants can kill an elephant," and they would still be destroyed. What was even more astonishing was that this guy seemed to be launching nuclear missiles at will to bombard their own warships.

Looking at the nuclear nova shining in the dark universe, each nuclear fireball meant that a large number of his warships had been turned into a beam of light.

The attacks from the Voidwarf warships would be quickly intercepted by the point defense drones released by those annoying and cunning Iron Ravens. Their own air phase fighters were completely powerless against that powerful close-in defense firepower. The attacks from the Destroyer warships and the Sky Overlord carriers were not exactly weak, but the enemy obviously had battlefield repair methods similar to the Reconstruction Beam, which could quickly repair damaged hulls and armor to last longer. If they were hit by a single shell fired by those warships with three triple-barreled cannons, even the Sky Overlord carrier would suffer unimaginable damage.

In short, the offensive momentum looks fierce, but against an opponent who has made thorough preparations in defense, such an offensive force is just there to rack up kills and rack up points.

“Actress, I suggest you deploy your flagship into the battlefield. This way we can gain the upper hand in this stalemate. We need to quickly stop the enemy’s columnar object from completing its charge, or something unpredictable will happen.”

The Void Crystal Core offered its advice.

"...Prepare a fleet of Destroyer warships, Decayer warships, and Skybreaker carriers, and prepare to use psionic jumps to the area around the charging pillar-shaped object to destroy everything there."

The agents quickly decided to take down the Arcane Pillars and the Emerald Key to solve the immediate problem.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

The Void Crystal Core immediately complied, waiting for a group of warships undergoing psionic leaps to launch a surprise attack.

The agent thought for a moment and realized that he needed more command ships to deal with such a powerful enemy; otherwise, the current fleet would not be able to turn the tide.

Therefore, more Royal Cores were created in each Annihilation Hub. Once the Royal Cores were completed, they were upgraded to Royal Cores and used to form more Royal Ships for attacks.

The Mothership is on the front lines, it has to win! If it can't win, it's probably doomed.

As the agent, he was not informed by his master, the End of Reincarnation, of the consequences of his incompetence, but he knew he would not fare well and would have to do everything in his power to kill that opponent.

"Let my flagship advance and attack the enemy flagship!"

The agent had already realized that he could no longer let his master stand idly by on the battlefield. The outcome of the attack in the past ten minutes had become clear: simply relying on a large number of ordinary troops would not bring about any further breakthroughs.

They need more powerful warships to compete with the enemy's warships, so as to buy time for their other capital ships to attack.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

The Void Crystal Core immediately controlled the main ship of the Imperial Observer, which was actually providing the energy field for warp, to start moving. At the same time, it controlled most of the warp-in Void World Mirrors to enter phase mode and form a huge energy network to replace the Imperial Observer to continue supporting the subsequent energy field.

The main ship, which had been stationary in the rear without directly engaging in combat, suddenly moved and was immediately detected by Walker.net's AI through its shipboard scanning array.

Walker.com AI knows that since the enemy's Mothership deployed in the rear has started to move, it means that the enemy has realized that relying solely on air phase fighters, destroyer warships, decay warships, and Skybreaker carriers is not enough to attack them. Now that the enemy has sent the Mothership, it must be to withstand and inflict a lot of damage in order to destroy their fleet.

Fortunately, they had time to stop and deal with this big guy.

Walker.net's AI did not immediately activate Time Stop to halt the enemy's warships. Instead, it patiently waited for the Mothership to enter engagement range. If the almost always successful Time Stop could catch the Mothership again, defeating this super Mothership would not be difficult.

Although the main ship of the Imperial Guard is large, it still cannot gain a significant visual advantage compared to the 25km-long air base on the flank of Colonia.

Just as the battlefield was blinded by the flashes of nuclear explosions again and again, the ace flagship, the Royal Guard, instantly appeared on the battlefield by teleporting.

The flagship of the imperial fleet possessed more powerful weaponry and a larger size than ordinary motherships, but that imposing presence combined with the girl's white and pink attire immediately looked strange, only making people feel awkward.

Walker.com's AI was not surprised by the mothership's sudden appearance.

The main ship that the Emperor commands has provided many surprises recorded in Walker.com's AI data.

First, six black and red thermal energy rays shot out directly from three points on the mothership, sweeping across the bow of Colonia's air base on its flank.

These incredibly powerful thermal rays carved six scarlet, glowing, melted gashes into the bow of the Colonia's air base on its flank.

"The bow armor of the HMS Eternal has suffered 6% damage. The nano-repair system is being activated to cool down the damaged bow armor and repair the damaged areas."

Walker.com's AI quickly calculated the percentage of damage and predicted a series of attacks to come.

After the opening six beams of thermal energy hit their faces, the main battleship of the Imperial Command released a large number of Sky Tyrant interceptors that flew toward the air base on the flank of Colonia and began bombarding it with plasma beams.

The number of these Skybreaker interceptors far exceeds that of ordinary Skybreaker carriers; they are so numerous that they cannot be counted on one's fingers and can only be described as a swarm of bees. Moreover, their attack methods are not limited to this.

Numerous anion pulse crystal turrets were also deployed from various locations on the main warship, firing large amounts of long-wavelength ion beams to attack Colonia's flank air base.

The dazzling ion beams and the Skybreaker interceptors flying together created a chaotic battlefield situation, simultaneously opening numerous small, molten armor gaps in the bow armor of the Colonia's air base on its flank.

"Time Shield System, activated."

Walker.com's AI won't just stand there and take the beating without retaliating; it's just that its retaliatory methods are very sophisticated.

After the sound of the energy gate being opened and energy surging in violently echoed within the ship and on the communication channels for several seconds, the familiar situation appeared.

The ground forces of the group's assault rollers, which were attacking the Ring Messenger, ceased all movement and became statues at the mercy of Colonia's flank weapons. With the effect of time stop, the Iron Dragon tanks, which were firing at fixed targets, naturally and happily used Iron Curtain Pulse shells to harvest those ground forces.

As for the Destroyer warships, Decayer warships, and Skybreaker carriers that were assisting the ground forces in their offensive, they also lost power and floated silently in the air, ceasing all movement. Even the Skybreaker interceptors were in the same state, which made it easier for anti-aircraft weapons to target and destroy them.

"It looks inferior to the visual effect of the Spear of Adun's time-stopping effect."

Anshan could not see any special effects from these objects whose time had been stopped.

When the Colonia Flanking Air Base activates Time Stop, a semi-transparent circle cannot be seen appearing on the unit. Compared to the transparent white light covering the unit's surface with the Spear of Adun, it is indeed inferior in terms of special effects.

"They used this trick from a distance to save us last time too."

Because they had experience with this before, Fushun could immediately tell what the situation was.

"That way, we can hit them very easily!"

Changchun was delighted to quickly finish off the stalled Tianba interceptors with a 130mm railgun.

"Has time stopped...?"

Taiyuan looked at the higher sky above with some worry. At this moment, their flagship was leading 20 warships in a battle in the air, according to the answer she had obtained from her inquiry.

The "time stop" function is generally only used in dire situations or when there is no other choice.

"Wow, this is terrible."

Raffi stared wide-eyed at the motionless enemy and exclaimed in disbelief, but his hands continued to attack the Skybreaker interceptors without stopping.

"Is this what time stop is? It just looks like it's making the enemy army look dazed."

Pu Feng's assessment of this simple and unpretentious effect is quite apt.

"It would be good to turn the enemy into metal targets, let's start the assault now! ...I want to do it, but I can't."

Isokaze also knows how to obey orders.

"What power this is..."

Hamakaze never imagined that time stopping could be used in military operations.

"Now is the best time to take care of the enemy."

Gu Feng focused more intently on dealing with the Tianba interceptors.

The battlefield on the ground was affected by the time stop, and the situation was obviously one-sidedly advantageous for Lin Haiyuan and his men. Their troops disappeared like snowflakes as they entered the affected area.
