Chapter 560: Chapter 366: Blasting a Path_1
When Harrison Clark and others arrived about 5,000 kilometers near the giant cocoon, silken light beams began to burst from the white cocoon.
However, the Galaxy Equipment was also equipped with a high-performance deflection field shield specifically designed against it.
The light beams first hit the shield and then were deflected to the side.
Even if the occasional silken light beam struck the shield directly and was not dispersed, the Galaxy Equipment would quickly eject a piece of reactive armor, actively collide with the silken light beam, and then explode.
Brilliant explosions create dazzling clouds, and it looks intimidating, but the Galaxy Warriors can pass through unharmed.
Using reactive armor to block silken light beams requires extremely high response speeds from artificial intelligence.
Now, Star can do it.
With the threat of silken light beams no longer existing, no one dares to let their guard down, as more eight-legged beetles and dragonfly fighters emerge from the holes in the white cocoon, and the two sides are about to engage in close combat.
Harrison Clark took a brief look at the battlefield information and couldn’t help but be awestruck.
In just a short time, the Compound-Eyed Observer had released several millions of dragonfly fighters and thousands of eight-legged beetles.
It is unknown whether the long whiskers’ space freezing ability has the ability to distinguish between friend and foe, or whether there is something special about the energy used by the Compound-Eyed Observer’s combat units. The dragonfly fighters and eight-legged beetles are still very comfortable and even more agile in the coverage area of the long whiskers’ space.
Furthermore, according to comprehensive analysis results from the compound detector, the birth time of this new batch of troops can be calculated using subtle changes in half-lives. They are so fresh that they seem to be steaming hot buns.
Harrison Clark silently cursed.
Are you kidding me?!
This surprise is a bit too much.
After losing to them multiple times, he had never dared to be complacent, always planning for the worst-case scenario.
Since this time the spherical battleship appears to be losing, they will undoubtedly use all of their cards.
Harrison Clark is acutely aware of his self-recognition and prides himself on being prepared to face everything. He can handle even the worst situations, but he was still caught off guard by the terrifying speed of the Compound-Eyed Observer’s all-out troop production.
No wonder a small spherical warship can carry out a race extinction strategy with the help of the Solar System Barrier.
With such an ability to produce an unreasonable amount of troops, I can do it too.
It’s infuriating!
Star has new information again.
“The ultra-large power engine inside the spherical battleship is running at the highest efficiency. The instant intensity of its energy reaction is equivalent to one ten-thousandth of a sun. This phenomenon did not appear in the past timeline, and it is speculated that the Spherical Battleship used a special energy supply means.”
In the invisible quantum battlefield where they fight tirelessly, Star knows the enemy best.
As the sole controller of the entire military intelligence system, the amount of information in Star’s hands is unimaginable to ordinary people.
Any subtle parameters collected by a soldier when fighting against the Compound-Eyed Observer’s combat units have value.
The energy vibrations caused by each artillery shell, missile, and energy weapon can also reveal a lot of new information.
The energy changes leaked by the spherical battleship’s every move also serve as information.
In the quantum network-level confrontation, Star both exposes its information and disintegrates more of the Compound-Eyed Observer’s operation rules each time it penetrates each other.
Such a vast amount of information is gathered in Star’s superbrain core like rivers converging into the sea and is decrypted and analyzed into useful intelligence for humans to reference.
Harrison Clark was shocked, “One ten-thousandth of a sun?”
“Yes.”
Harrison Clark frowned and then felt his heart race with alarm.
If it were just dragonfly fighters and eight-legged beetles as cannon fodder-type soldiers, there would be no need for such terrifying output power as one ten-thousandth of a sun.
There’s only one explanation: the spherical battleship inside the white giant cocoon is doing something big that he doesn’t understand.
As Harrison Clark accelerated forward, he couldn’t help but be full of mixed feelings.
He didn’t know whether to be happy or sad because, after exploring eight different timelines, he had finally arrived at this point.
At first, he was clueless about the shape of the enemy ship and even mistook it for a round disk, dying unaware of the truth.
Later, humans were wiped out again and again like cats playing with mice.
But now, humans have finally forced their opponents to give it their all.
The progress on their side is apparent, but the new cards the enemy continuously reveals can always make them feel a new despair.
While they are fighting tooth and nail, the enemy is leisurely strolling, making it hard not to be angry.
But Harrison Clark thought to himself, with just a 3,000 kilometers in diameter warship, and using one ten-thousandth of the sun’s power, could this finally be their ultimate card?
After surviving this ordeal, there won’t be any more surprises, right?
“Accelerate our advance and don’t get entangled in battle.”
As he issued new orders, Harrison Clark took the lead and faced the array formed by several dozen dragonfly fighters and several eight-legged beetles.
“Star, I need stronger computing power support. The stealth form is not as strong as the Omnipotent Battle Armor, and I cannot be hit easily.”
“Which direction should the enhancement be in?”
“Increase the command reception speed. From now on, the speed of my command release every second will be three times faster than before.”
“Three times?”
“Yes.”
“Needham Brown’s thirty times?”
“Yes.”
“That’s the limit of your equipment.”
Harrison Clark smiled, “Yes, that’s right. It’s still the equipment that limits my strength.”
From 35% to 38.91%, his physical strength didn’t change much, but his brain’s computing power had long since become incomparably stronger.
Of course, he usually would not engage in such high-intensity brain activity.
First, it’s too exhausting. Second, having a fast brain doesn’t necessarily mean a person can be smart. Just like someone who is exceptionally good at mental arithmetic, if they wanted to study theoretical physics, they would still have to start from scratch, otherwise, they would be clueless.Once on the battlefield, controlling equipment like the Galaxy Equipment that required continuous brainwave commands, Harrison Clark’s uniqueness could be fully showcased.
Compared to the second strongest human, Needham Brown, Harrison Clark’s brainwave command volume per second was thirty times greater, and much more accurate.
Wielding the same equipment, he demonstrated entirely different prowess.
Behind Harrison Clark’s stealth form, forty-eight octopus-arm-like metal whips extended.
At the tip of each metal whip, space was torn with shimmering vibrations.
Physical toxin bullets could be launched from the opening at the tips.
This was the latest technological achievement from the Weapon Research Institute, a perfect combination of close combat and mid-range combat capabilities.
Harrison Clark, being the only one with forty-eight of these attached to his back, simply outclassed everyone else.
Others couldn’t possibly control such a large number of intricate weapons at the same time.
Ordinary soldiers on a Galaxy Equipment would usually be equipped with only four at most.
In the blink of an eye, Harrison Clark entered the fray as a butcher in the stormy night, weaving through the bullet storm created by Dragonfly Fighters and Eight-legged Beetles, slashing and dancing his whips in the air.
Intense explosions filled this narrow starry sky, and he had no equal.
He demanded that others not engage in battle, but he himself started killing with great enthusiasm.
Harrison Clark’s goal was to reduce pressure for the soldiers behind him and to wait for Needham Brown’s progress.
Needham Brown, who aimed to surpass Harrison Clark, felt helpless when he saw his sudden surge in kill counts.
Not only that, but after not too long, Harrison Clark sent new information.
“The shock caused by the explosion of an enemy ship can temporarily disrupt the space-freezing ability of the Long Whiskers. If trapped, one can use the method of traversing the remains of the explosion to escape. The escape route lasts for 0.5 seconds. You all, observe my details and try to collect the wreckage of enemy ships,”
At the same time, Star was analyzing the performance differences between the new Eight-legged Beetles and Dragonfly Fighters and the previous ones at the fastest speed, trying to find the core principle that enabled them to shuttle through the Long Whiskers’ space.
Star already had an extremely heavy workload for intelligence support tasks on the battlefield, and with the decryption of the new information, the amount of her calculations increased even further.
The Summit Fortress re-ignited and started, continuing to shorten the distance between it and the battlefield.
Although Harrison Clark was eager to fight and didn’t let any enemy units pass along the way, he was always at the forefront, continuously advancing.
Three thousand kilometers.
Two thousand.
One thousand.
“We can’t go further. The density of Long Whiskers ahead is too high, and there’s no room to dodge. Just detonate here,”
Harrison Clark shook his head, “It’s too far, the Particle-interference Bomb won’t reach.”
“So, what do you plan to do?”
Harrison glanced ahead and grinned, “Force my way through.”
Star: “Huh?”
The next moment, Harrison dashed forward.
Right in front of him, a Long Whisker swept past.
Ten thousand kilometers seemed to have special significance to Long Whiskers.
Although their movement speed was still fast, it slowed down quite a bit compared to within ten thousand kilometers.
Harrison first moved laterally, then slightly retreated backward, regaining some distance.
In the space ahead with more Long Whiskers, the Dragonfly Fighters and Eight-legged Beetles flying out quickly changed direction and continued chasing after Harrison.
Harrison used this small space to sometimes feign a charge and sometimes retreat explosively.
Star helped him monitor the battlefield.
After a few seconds, Star understood Harrison’s intention.
“You…”
Harrison moved again, and at the same time, he said, “Synchronize my operation records and send them to all Galaxy Warriors in the Special Attack Squad, focusing on Needham Brown. They may need you to provide calculating power support.”
Immediately after, Harrison lunged forward again.
This time, he fearlessly charged toward the area covered by the Long Whiskers’ space.
Straight ahead, hundreds of stretching Long Whiskers intertwined and formed layers of overlapping coverage with no gaps left.
Closing in.
In Harrison’s left hand, his war blade changed into an energy particle gun, and the war blade in his right hand changed into a heavy physical toxin machine gun.
The forty-eight metal whips behind him spread out like jellyfish facing directly forward.
A continuous fire was launched.
Up to now, Harrison was already intimately familiar with the capabilities of the Dragonfly Fighter.
Dragonfly Fighters boasted their stealth as the proudest feature, but it had already completely failed.
The long-range bombardment he unleashed was inescapable.
As the nearest Dragonfly Fighter at the edge of the Long Whisker space was shot down and exploded, it caused an impact cloud with a diameter of about one thousand meters.
Harrison charged headfirst into the aftermath, unaffected by the space freeze.
At the next moment, another Dragonfly Fighter a few hundred meters away from the cloud was hit by the particle gun fired from within the impact cloud, its defenses were broken, and it was engulfed by physical toxin bullets and exploded as well.
Harrison lunged forward again into the new explosion’s aftermath.
It turned out that during the previous maneuvering, he had aligned the approaching Dragonfly Fighters and Eight-legged Beetles into a straight line ahead of him!
He planned to use the impact aftermath that could open up the Long Whiskers’ space as a path and force his way in.
If there was no path, then he’d make one himself.
