Chapter 246 A Fleeting Chance
The Sirius' energy-gathering countdown was constantly transmitted over the communication frequency, but the ballistic calculation data from the command headquarters was not transmitted for a long time, and more and more frigates began to fire at this huge target.
Amidst the roar of artillery fire, Shi Chen could only turn to a certain existence in a desperate situation and shouted in his mind: "Xiao Chu! Give me the ballistic data!"
Xiaochu responded immediately, "The trajectory is being calculated, there is no reliable data support, and it is expected to take three minutes and forty-seven seconds."
"Damn it!" Shi Chen yelled through the communicator: "How long do you want!"
The command hall was also in a state of high tension. Feng Shangming's expression remained unchanged as he stared at the messy and complex data on the screen. The nails of his hands had dug into his flesh, bleeding.
"Particle acceleration reaches peak!"
"Particles began to overflow, and the superconducting circuits were damaged!"
"Cut off the damaged line! Quick!"
"The pattern of the Sirius' trajectory changes lacks data support! It cannot accurately lock the target within the limited time! The probability of completing the hit is 0.003%!"
As this report sounded, the command hall fell into a moment of silence. Only the ground shook and muffled, and a sense of despair spread.
Just then, the system issued its final alarm.
"Sirius's main gun is about to be charged, and there are still five seconds before launch!"
"Four!"
"three!"
"two!"
On the big screen, you can already see the spiral gate of the Sirius's main gun port slowly opening, and the inside is red, like a volcanic crater about to erupt.
Feng Shangming, who was originally motionless, immediately said: "Adopt Plan B, change the sniper target, and shoot the engine!"
The expressions of everyone present changed. They all knew what this choice meant, but no one would question this order.
The arrow is on the string. If they miss this fleeting opportunity, they may lose their only chance to shoot!
With the wide range of shooting targets, the theoretical data that had been completed were instantly called upon.
"Shoot the metadata to start final calibration!"
"The planetary rotation and gravity error is 0.0017, corrected!"
In the cockpit, data reports came one after another from the originally silent communication device. Although the sniper target was temporarily changed, Shi Chen's spirit was still highly tense and he was breathing heavily.
This may be the only shooting opportunity, no matter what, you can't go wrong!
"The sight has completed target lock!"
"All the compressed particle energy begins to be directed into the electromagnetic orbit!"
"emission!"
In the shattered vision, all the command signals merged together in an instant.
Shi Chen also pulled the trigger.
Bang!
Along with a heavy muffled sound, Shi Chen felt that the rail gun barrel as heavy as a mountain on his shoulders was pressed down instantly, and the war apostle's two soles sank deeply into the ground covered with alloy.
Following a burst of infinite light that erupted like a solar particle flare, a cylindrical beam of light instantly crossed over the city.
Under this high-heat and high-energy particle ray, wherever it passes, the smoke dissipates, the haze retreats, and the clouds in the sky are instantly evaporated, creating a ring-shaped hole that extends in all directions!
Dozens of global fighters and imperial mechas that were making an emergency landing into the atmosphere near the light beam instantly turned into pieces of red-hot iron ingots and turned into fly ash in an instant.
This beam of light, which seemed to be the first of its kind in the world, passed through the barrier of near-Earth space and atmosphere out of thin air in an instant, directly came to the Sirius sailing in low-Earth orbit, and hit the left engine cluster.
The light pillar cut through the starry sky, and after exploding all its energy, it turned into a line as real as hair, and disappeared into the depths of the empty universe. It seemed to appear and disappear in an instant. If it weren't for that terrifying bright light, it would be like
has never appeared.
However, as if to prove its existence, a circular cavity with a radius of more than thirty meters appeared in the rear wing engine of the Sirius. Along with the dull sound of explosions, red fire and smoke continued to appear.
The command hall of the Sirius trembled violently, and the system kept making sharp sounds.
"Alert! Alert! The main engine of Sirius has been destroyed, the power consumption is 83.41%, and it cannot continue to complete the interstellar orbit change!"
"Captured by the gravity of the planet, it is about to make an emergency landing on the Sudake planet. It is expected to make an emergency landing on the planet's surface in three minutes and fifty-seven seconds!"
Amidst the exclamations of many pale-faced people in the command hall, Prince Hong Jian smiled and stared at the Ruther area on the screen with his sharp eyes like an eagle, staring at the silver computer that fired this terrifying shot.
Giant, "Sure enough! The Federation people also brought the sacred objects of our empire to the battlefield! But is this your last trump card? If so, the outcome is determined!"
"The stated goal remains unchanged! Let me raze this place to the ground!"
"Target coordinates corrected!"
"Shoot the metadata to start final calibration!"
"emission!"
...
In the Luther command hall, no one showed any signs of relief when they saw that the shot accurately hit the Tianlang's master Yinqin.
"Sirius is adjusting its hull, and its main guns are still charging!"
"Raise the Wall of Superion immediately! Deploy all the anti-aircraft forts on this line! Abandon the position and recover the War Apostles!" Feng Shangming ordered! No matter what, the safety of the War Apostles and pilots must be ensured.
"Everyone! Be prepared to bear the impact!"
All the officers in the command hall tightly grasped the edge of the workbench and looked at the ferocious blue Sirius on the big screen.
Just a few seconds after these orders were issued, one of the countless stars suddenly shone brightly in the night sky that had just fallen silent.
A bright beam of light, like a divine punishment coming to the world, passed through the barriers of time and space and hit a row of metal turrets that had just climbed up from the ground.
However, these forts did not play a big role in weakening the impact, and turned into molten iron and fly ash in the extremely high energy and high temperature.
The beam of light that destroyed the world instantly melted these forts, and then directly hit the wall of Suborion that had just risen!
This metal wall that melted close to Suborion's super-solid alloy armor finally played its due role.
It was like a tsunami turned into red light, hitting the thick embankment heavily, and suddenly disintegrated, spreading in an arc towards both sides and high in the sky, and all the ruins and fortresses along the way were scattered.
Flooded and melted.
The dust and smoke are billowing into the sky, the rivers are steaming, and everything seems to have fallen into endless purgatory.
From a bird's-eye view from space, it looks like a strange and ferocious smiling face appears on the map of Ruther City.
Even so, the Wall of Suborion continued to melt at a speed visible to the naked eye under this incomparable impact.
Behind the Subrion Wall, after Shi Chen completed the shooting, he did not choose to follow the emergency passage and sink into the underground base shelter. Instead, he immediately chose to crawl on the ground and kill the particle rail gun that had completed its mission.
Pressed tightly beneath him.
When the impact came, Shi Chen felt that his vision was instantly filled with a sea of red light, as if he was thrown into a hot oil pan. His bloodshot eyes were wide open, and he could not help but feel like a beast.
Roaring in pain!
Even though the Wall of Suborion blocked most of the direct impact, it still couldn't stop the scorching heat from continuing to spread.
The alloy armor on the upper body of the War Apostle turned red, with molten iron dripping constantly, just like the blood of the Apostle.
Countless green smoke emerged from the seams of the armor, exuding a burning smell.
The underground command room in Ruther District also seemed to have experienced a magnitude 7 earthquake at the same time.
Seventy percent of the electronic screen turned into snowflakes, and the rest was shrouded in red light. Everything in the field of vision shook and trembled violently. Electronic instruments kept falling to the ground, and paper documents kept falling from the desk.
As soon as it was sprinkled, many officers fell to the ground, their faces covered in blood.
After an unknown amount of time after the terrifying impact, the tremors in the command hall finally weakened. The officers climbed up from the ground in embarrassment and returned to their posts immediately. Then there was a desperate message from the officers.
.
"Sirius's main gun is recharged!"
Feng Shangming also climbed up while holding on to the workbench. He had a bloody hole on his left forehead, but he couldn't care less. He ordered in a deep voice: "Get ready to evacuate the headquarters!"
This is an extremely painful decision that must be made. Without the Wall of Superion, the last shot of the Sirius before its emergency landing will inevitably reach the headquarters!
They can only choose to temporarily preserve their strength and fight the decisive battle with the Imperials on the ground!
However, at this moment, an officer who was packing up his documents suddenly froze. He pointed at a intact holographic screen and shouted: "Shi...Captain Shi!"
Everyone followed his gaze in astonishment and saw that on the scorched Suborion position, the War Apostle, whose entire body was red and smoking, slowly climbed up from the bloody purgatory.
Shouldn't the War Apostle be recovered along the emergency passage? Did something go wrong?
"Shi Chen! What on earth are you doing?" Feng Shangming said in confusion and anger. The War Apostle is the only trump card they can rely on in the next land war, and they must not lose it here.
There was silence in the communication channel for a moment, and then Shi Chen's hoarse but determined voice came:
Chapter completed!
