Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

The entire crew involved in this operation learned from Lone Wolf that there are two ways to completely destroy a Marauder fleet.

One is the simplest and most brutal way, using absolute firepower to instantly vaporize a mothership with a diameter of more than twelve kilometers.

Must be instant.

According to Lone Wolf, there is a brain beast with independent thinking in the mothership of every predator fleet.

The Brain Beast is responsible for commanding the entire fleet, ranging from a mothership to a biological unit.

And between Brain Beast and Brain Beast, there is still an unknown communication method, and information is shared all the time. This is why after destroying a fleet, there will still be a steady stream of fleets coming.

The Lone Wolf and the Clan speculate that this method of communication may be some kind of telepathy.

Only by killing the brain beast can a predator fleet be shut down, no longer aiming at devouring and assimilating planets, and unable to perform self-repair like just now.

The position of the brain beast in the mothership is not fixed, so it must be instantaneous and one-time vaporize the entire mothership in order to achieve the purpose of killing it.

But as a mothership, it is not so easy to be evaporated in an instant.

Followed by jump gang operations.

Sending elite troops to forcibly board the mothership to find and kill the brain beasts accurately is also the method used by the Iron Blood Clan.

At this point, watch from a distance.

I saw that the fleets of both sides were approaching rapidly.

The Umbrella fleet on the left side fired another plasma cannon salvo.

boom-! boom-!

Twenty-four meteor-shaped artillery clusters emitting blue light came out of their chests.

Synchronized with the salvo, the Goshawk class also deployed the missile bays located on both sides of the hull.

Wait for the distance between the two parties to get closer.

Swish! Swish!

One hundred and fifty missiles carrying different warheads quickly exited the warehouse, immediately adjusted the diverging distance of the direction, and fired towards the predator fleet with irregular flight trajectories.

Of the one hundred and fifty, forty-eight had plasma bombs in their warheads, and the rest were nuclear bombs of various yields.

Forty-eight is Umbrella's current inventory of plasma bombs.

The remaining nuclear bombs are responsible for confusing the public and helping the plasma bombs hit the target as much as possible.

Nuclear bombs, hydrogen bombs and plasma bombs.

Most of the power of these three weapons comes from shock waves, but the universe lacks gas and dust and other media that can form shock waves, so they can only rely on pure heat energy and light radiation to kill targets, so their power will be greatly reduced.

Radiation has no effect on predator creatures and warships that rely on flesh to navigate.

Immediately afterwards, the plasma cannons hit their respective targets first, and cyan flames shone on the periphery of the Marauder fleet.

As for the destroyed biological battleship, when the flames dissipated, it began to perform automatic repair steps.

At this time, one hundred and fifty missiles followed.

Those insect-like biological carrier planes, as well as small biological warfare ships, immediately launched a suicidal interception of the missiles.

boom--! boom--!

In an instant, blazing white and blue miniature suns rose from the predator fleet.

Spectacular to look at, but only low-value targets are wiped out.

Even so, there are still many missiles that pass through the outer and middle layers of the Marauder fleet.

In the end, the remaining four plasma bombs successfully hit the front and left side of the mothership.

boom--!

The four suns emitting dazzling blue light scorched the creature and the metal armor with extremely high temperatures.

After the glory.

The four plasma bombs caused four huge gaps of different sizes to appear on the front and left side of the mothership, exposing the internal structure and biological tissues.

But this damaged state only lasted for a few seconds, and then biological battleships acted as maintenance components, filling the giant gap caused by the plasma bombs.

See here.

Umbrella continued to increase the speed and further shorten the distance between the two sides.

The divine body of Sanguinius is located at the front of the fleet, a carrier-based aircraft squadron composed of nine Falcons, a total of twelve squadrons and three Goshawks are moving forward in coordination.

Prepare to punch through the Marauder's defenses.

Shorter distances...

shorten…

Finally, the Umbrella fleet came within range of the opponent!

call out! call out!

The insect-like biological carrier-based aircraft shot densely packed bone spurs towards the Falcon, the Body of God and the Goshawk, and launched wave after wave of suicide attacks.

And those biological warships even shot out guns of unknown attributes that emitted a dark green light.

Umbrella's side was fearless, piercing through the enemy fleet like a spear, and continued to sprint towards the mothership in the central area with unabated momentum.

Ri~—Tat, tap, tap!

The artillery fire of the rotary pulse near-defense gun was wide open, harvesting those big insects recklessly.

In groups of twos and threes, the Falcon engaged in a space dogfight with the big insects trying to approach the fleet.

Sanguinius, who was at the tip of the fleet, even used the magic weapon temporarily borrowed by his brother to cut and pierce anything trying to stop it.

What's even more amazing is that when the predator's bone spurs and biological cannonballs were about to hit the body of God, they were all intercepted by the light wall composed of golden ◇diamond blocks.

Pure physical attacks such as bone spurs and biological cannonballs can't deal an effective blow to the body of God at all.

The generation principle of this light wall seems to be fundamentally different from the energy shield technology.

In fact, the energy shield technology mastered by Umbrella is temporarily unable to generate enough shield stance to wrap the body of God.

In other words, this light wall is the unique shield system of the body of God.

According to the explanation given by Birken, after the body of God possesses the original body as the driver, it is equivalent to possessing a soul, which is combined with psionic energy to create a unique defensive stance.

With Sanguinius leading the way, the Umbrella fleet approached the giant mothership gradually.

…

Inside the one-man cockpit of a Falcon.

Tap! Tap!

The noise of the cannon on the belly is transmitted to the cockpit through vibrations when it fires.

A pilot wearing a special flight suit is manipulating the Falcon to chase a fly-like biological enemy plane.

Puff-puff!

The 20mm caliber shellless aerial artillery shell exploded violently the moment it was injected into the fly, and the internal organs, blood and tissues were thrown into space.

But it didn't take long for the display on the console to remind the pilot that the ammunition was empty.

So the pilot prepared to return to the voyage and asked the ground crew to replenish his ammunition.

Beep! Beep! Suddenly, an urgent alarm sounded in the cockpit.

A larger biological enemy plane launched a suicide attack from the oblique front of the Falcon, preparing to die with the Falcon.

but…

The pilot didn't choose to dodge, but controlled the Falcon's retracted wings to collide with the biological enemy plane in a shuttle shape.

Sting -!

Not only did the biological enemy plane not complete the act of dying together, but it was cut in two by the Falcon.

The pilot manipulated the Falcon to rotate, and after shaking off the visceral tissue stuck to the window, he saw the giant mothership that was so close at hand.
