2326 、 True Asymmetry
The fleet consisting of 12 giant battleships began to slow down and stopped 5,000 kilometers away from the moon's orbit. There was no further reaction.
However, at this moment, there was no other sound in the command center of the Yun Nation's lunar base except for the violent heartbeats and breathing sounds! After a long time, Tsukuyomi muttered, "The Independent Galaxy Confederation … It's really Star Wars …"
Heine frowned and looked at the screen with a solemn expression. Although he couldn't feel how terrifying these 12 battleships were through the screen, he could see some clues from the other party's incredible appearance. From the data reported by the radar soldiers, the other party's speed had reached 30000 kilometers per second, which was equivalent to one-tenth of the speed of light! What kind of concept was this? Even if they launched a probe, it would take at least 100 years to accelerate to this speed!
To be able to accelerate a battleship to such a speed, it could only mean one thing: the other party was an interstellar civilization! This was no longer an existence that even the Solar System — no, even the Earth-Moon system couldn't compare to!
"This Independent Galaxy Confederation and Star Wars … What are they? Are they our enemies? "Heine asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, the worst might have already happened. The Independent Galaxy Confederation is our enemy. Now, you can check the other party's information, "Tsukuyomi said calmly.
At this moment, the signaller suddenly said loudly, "Unknown communication incoming!"
"Connect it," Tsukuyomi said.
However, before the signaller could do anything, a large light screen in front of him flashed, and a figure appeared. Obviously, the other party couldn't be bothered to wait for their consent and directly cut into the communication system.
"Very good! Dregs of the Yun Nation! I'll be merciful and give you three minutes to write your last words. Then, you can die in satisfaction! As for why it's three minutes, it's because the primitive missiles you launched previously made me a little unhappy, so I reduced the original five minutes! " This figure was a ferocious robot. He wore a metal mask on his head, which seemed to be the bone of some kind of beast. The eyes under the mask showed that he was a living creature, just like a terrifying beast! His voice was even scarier. The hoarse voice under the mask was like a rusty saw sawing a piece of rusty metal plate, sending chills down one's spine.
Upon seeing the robot, Tsukuyomi's face turned even paler. Her lips trembled as she squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth, "General … Grievous …"
"Oh? I was surprised to find that there were people who knew me in this primitive and backward place! Looks like Tang Yu is right. The multiverse really does exist. " General Grievous sized up Tsukuyomi with interest. "Since I'm in a good mood, I'll extend the time needed to write my last words to four minutes."
"You and Tang Yu … no, the Independent Star System Confederacy and Tang Yu, what is your relationship?" Tsukuyomi took a deep breath and asked. Then, she added, "Since you are stronger than us, you shouldn't be hiding anything from us, right?"
"Hahahahaha!" General Grievous laughed out loud. "The Independent Star System Confederacy no longer exists. It's just that we didn't change our flag! Because this flag, this symbol, records the history of our bloody battles! As for Tang Yu, I'm working for him now. That's all! You don't deserve to know more than that! "
With that said, he put his terrifying face in front of the screen and grinned sinisterly. "Now, you still have two minutes left!"
Ka-cha! The communication was shut down.
Tsukuyomi's expression was extremely ugly as she asked Lieutenant General Sugama Yoshikichi, "How likely are we to succeed if we launch a surprise attack on them now?"
Sugama Yoshikichi sighed and said, "A distance of 5,000 kilometers. Our anti-ship missiles will need to fly for about a minute. If the other party is in a state of combat readiness, we shouldn't have much of a chance."
"Launch the missiles! Now! "Tsukuyomi said.
Lieutenant General Sugama Yoshikichi glanced at her and hesitated to speak. Then, he immediately understood what Tsukuyomi meant. His gaze turned cold as he shouted, "Launch the anti-ship missiles! Target, the fleet of the Independent Star System Confederacy! "
Hundreds of missiles rose into the air again and flew straight toward General Grievous' fleet! At the same time the missiles were launched, General Grievous's terrifying voice appeared in the communication again. "Since you want to die early, I'll grant your wish!"
At the same time, the 12 battleships began to accelerate. Facing the hundreds of missiles, these battleships did not even have to deploy an anti-air barrage. Countless laser beams flashed past, and all the missiles were destroyed! Technology had developed to the level of the Star Wars world. Most missiles had become weapons that could only be used at close range. If one wanted to attack the enemy from afar, they would have to be like the Diamond Missile and add a deflection shield to the missile. Furthermore, it would be more expensive than a fighter jet!
The Cloud Nation's defensive fleet also opened fire immediately! Seeing the fate of the large missiles, they did not launch their missiles. The current distance had exceeded the maximum range of energy weapons, so the electromagnetic railguns on these battleships opened fire! The 420 mm electromagnetic railguns on the Meneva-class battleships were the most powerful. Accompanied by bursts of dazzling electric light, huge metal projectiles were fired. Their speed accelerated to more than 100 kilometers per second in an extremely short period of time, and it was still accelerating! In the cosmic environment, the range of kinetic weapons was infinite! There was also no upper limit to their speed!
However, the distance between the two sides was thousands of kilometers. At this distance, even if the turret deviated by 0.0001, the final deviation was still a world of difference! Only one projectile fired from the electromagnetic railgun hit the target, and the deflection shield in front of the Victorious II-class Planet Destroyer only flashed for a moment.
Grievous' fleet, on the other hand, was very patient. They kept moving forward and did not launch any missiles. When they were 2,000 kilometers away from the moon, the bow of the Victorious II-class Planet Destroyer at the front of the formation suddenly lit up with a dazzling light! Immediately afterward, two thick green explosive laser beams were fired from the heavy turbolaser cannons! Although the turbolaser was called a laser, it was actually a sub-light speed weapon. However, the distance of 2,000 kilometers was covered in an instant. One of the explosive laser beams missed, and the other directly exploded on a Rorasia-class battleship!
This 200-meter-long battleship almost collapsed in an instant, pierced by the explosive laser beam! Even after the forces of the Yun Nation began to infiltrate Zaft and brought them energy shield technology, they still could not withstand the power of the turbolaser cannon of the Victorious II-class Planet Destroyer! A violent explosion exploded from the front of the battleship to the rear. At that moment, the entire battleship seemed to expand several times, and then it exploded into countless pieces in the explosion! The flames of the explosion instantly extinguished in the vacuum, but the shattering of the battleship continued. There was no longer a complete piece of the battleship!
As if this was the beginning, the 12 battleships began to fire wildly! The heavy turbolaser cannons on the battleships fired beams of explosive laser beams that brought death! Although they still continued the consistent characteristics of the battleships in the "Star Wars" world, the terrible power still became the most fatal threat! Moreover, these battleships were still moving forward, and a few of the explosive laser beams had even landed on the moon. Although the landing point was only a barren plain, it immediately caused a cloud of dust that was hundreds of meters high, and a new crater was formed!
Almost immediately, five battleships from the Yun Nation were destroyed. Four of them were the slowest Rorasia-class battleships, and the last one was an unlucky Eternal-class transport ship.
Under the hoarse shouts of the Yun Nation's officers, the Yun Nation's fleet also launched a counterattack. After witnessing the terrible power of the enemy's artillery, the Yun Nation's fleet dispersed, and a large number of MS and fighter jets rushed straight toward the enemy!
General Grievous' fleet also took off fighter jets, but most of these fighter jets were Vulture robot fighters. These fighter jets had already been eliminated by PNSR, so they were basically useless on this battlefield.
At this distance, the only thing that could threaten General Grievous' fleet was the electromagnetic cannons, but the electromagnetic cannons were very ineffective under the protection of the energy shield. Fortunately, General Grievous didn't want to waste time with them. At this distance, the accuracy of the turbolaser cannons was also very low, so the distance between the two sides continued to close!
However, the difference was that the attacks of the Yun Nation's fleet were like stones sinking into the sea when they hit the energy shield. On the other hand, the dense laser beams fired by General Grievous' fleet were like fireworks as long as they hit the target!
The energy levels of both sides were immediately distinguished, and it was a world of difference!
Just as Tsukuyomi looked at the screen with a pale face, all the screens suddenly distorted and snowflakes appeared. The communicator was also full of static! This was electronic interference!
