"Warning, the war trial (2) is about to begin. The trial rules are as follows."
【War Trial (2)】
【Difficulty】:a
【Duration】:Various
[Affected scope]: Undetermined
[Introduction]: This war trial is extremely special. It will cover both natural disaster trials and insect disaster trials. The challenges are particularly severe, but the rewards will also be quite generous.
The trial will be divided into two parts: [Rift Blocking War] and [Void Annihilation War]. If you reach the corresponding reward target, you can immediately call for airdrop support and accumulate combat merit. After the trial is over, a special exchange store (rare) will be opened, and generous rewards will be given according to the ranking.
award.
【rift blocking battle】
This is the first stage of this trial.
In the next 24 hours, the psionic energy storm from the middle layer of the void will tear apart the weak points of space in the sky galaxy, creating short-lived and unstable void rift connections.
During the existence of the rift, the sky galaxy will continue to be connected to the middle layer of the void. On the way, the Tyranids, the rulers of the middle layer and the minions of the Void Demon, will appear and try to invade the material universe.
The Tyranids are ferocious and evil. They are the enemy of all races in the universe and must be destroyed.
During the trial, any act of killing Tyranids will result in combat merit. Every time 10,000 Tyranids are killed, an airdrop can be called, and the rewards can be upgraded through accumulation.
When the rewards accumulate to 100,000 Tyranids, Rift Bombs will be added to the airdrop rewards.
As long as a rift bomb is ensured to explode in the void rift, the rift can be closed in advance. Closing the rift in advance will gain a lot of combat merit.
Please note that the longer the rift exists, the more troublesome it will be for the Tyranid swarms emerging from within. Please evaluate the risks and benefits comprehensively.
During the existence of the Void Rift, a large amount of psionic energy and void crystals will appear along with it. Triers are asked to collect them by themselves.
Blocking the Void Invasion can be done cooperatively, but there is no friendly damage limit.
When all void rifts are closed, the first phase of the trial ends.
【Void Annihilation Battle】
After the rift is completely closed, the spiritual tide will also subside.
However, the Tyranids that have invaded Skyrim will not die, but will continue to wreak havoc and corrupt more native life, acting as living beacons for the next void connection.
To do this, these void threats must be eliminated.
This is the second stage of the trial.
After entering the second stage, each registered force can obtain a void psionic sensor (level 1) for free from the oracle store to search for void threats.
Eliminating the void threat will upgrade the detector level from level 1 to level 7. At level 7, the detection range can cover the entire sky galaxy.
At the same time, clearing the void threat will also result in combat merit, and your performance will be included in the final ranking.
Please note that when the remaining threat is not enough for either force to upgrade the psionic sensor to level 7, the remaining threat will be marked when it is less than 5% of the total.
When the last threat is eliminated, the trial ends and enters the reward settlement phase.
[Additional rules]:
1. This trial allows the merging of forces. All the merits and reward progress of the merged force will be merged into the merging force, and in the second stage, the upgrade progress of the psionic energy sensor can be freely divided.
2. Native creatures corrupted by the void are also included in the threat of the void.
3. This trial contains a number of hidden achievements, which can be unlocked to gain considerable military exploits.
…
The oracle's trial rules immediately appeared in the minds of managers of all registered forces.
However, as part of the plan against the imperial colonial army, there is no longer any force manager in the four major colonies.
Accordingly, even if the imperial colonists learned of the existence of oracles and trials from civilians, and if the higher-ups in the empire paid attention to them, they would still need to spend more time going out into the wild to find insiders in other strongholds.
When the empire's top brass obtained accurate information and wanted to make adjustments to the military deployment,
Buzz——!
A natural disaster has come.
A terrifying magnetic storm broke out instantly, and the energy tide affected the Sky Star and its synchronous orbit at an unprecedented speed.
All the military satellites left in orbit by the Empire for transit and surveillance were burned out in an instant. Fortunately, the squadron moved to the back of Skyrim 3 in advance to avoid it, otherwise the powerful magnetic storm would instantly destroy the invincible battleship that the Empire was proud of.
Even so, this squadron composed of 5 battleships still suffered heavy losses. The power on the ship was interrupted, and the sensors were burned out in large areas. The chaotic imperial engineers worked desperately to make emergency repairs, so that this battleship could not be destroyed.
Become a space coffin.
On the other side, the main force of the Empire's 46th Fleet, headed by the Jaeger-class fleet, has dispersed and hovered over the wasteland and rainforest where void rifts are most likely to appear. Three Aquitens-class ships have been deployed on the Rainforest Continent, and flagships including flagships have been deployed on the Wasteland Continent.
There are two ships left.
However, the Imperial Army, who originally thought that hiding in the atmosphere would be enough to rest easy, were shocked to find that the battleship under their feet was tilting rapidly.
"Your Excellency Baron, our electronic systems have suffered heavy damage, and half of the systems are being restarted, including the anti-gravity engines! We are going to make an emergency landing now!"
"Damn it, the abominable natives of the earth have deceived us. This is not an ordinary natural disaster at all, this is a level 7 cosmic magnetic storm!"
Baron Nut clenched the armrest and couldn't help but cursed in the tilting bridge.
The Imperial Navy has a clear classification of natural disaster levels, which is exactly the same as the classification standard of the Oracle.
Because the designed magnetic storm resistance of the Aquitens class is level 6 and the designed magnetic storm resistance of the Jaeger class is level 6.5, Baron Nat can judge the approximate level of this cosmic magnetic storm at a glance based on the situation encountered by the flagship.
.
In fact,
This cosmic magnetic storm, which even the oracle did not specifically mention, is the most violent level 7 natural disaster in the history of Tianji Star!
The cause of the formation is naturally inseparable from the spiritual tide that is about to erupt.
The residents of Skyrim, who have long been accustomed to regular natural disasters, were surprised by the violence of the natural disasters, but they had already taken refuge in the shelter, and their mood did not fluctuate much.
The Imperial Army who stayed outside originally didn't care much about these burdens, and planned to go and seize the Void Crystal when the natural disaster started. However, when a natural disaster struck down, they were dumbfounded.
Like ants on a hot pot, they are scurrying around to avoid the incoming blazing radiation and cosmic rays.
Before this, the residents of the occupied areas would naturally not be kind enough to remind the empire that military supplies must be fully protected from natural disasters. At this moment, the supply boxes that had not been put into the warehouse were only covered with a thick layer of composite protective cloth.
This crude protection did not last even five minutes before it spontaneously ignited violently and was immediately scrapped along with the materials underneath.
Of course, the buildings in each colony could not withstand this level of natural disasters, and some of the repeatedly reinforced buildings and facilities were also in trouble. However, the people in trouble at this time were not the local residents, but the imperial troops stationed here.
"This place is really bloody. How can these natives withstand such a disaster? Why don't we hurry up and send people to repair these equipment that are about to burn!"
The Imperial Army commanders stationed in the four major colonies almost all had this reaction.
The moment the natural disaster struck, they lost contact with the fleet and failed to receive Baron Nutt's final military deployment. They could only follow the established plan or act expediently.
However, before the spiritual tide broke out, they were already in big trouble.
Not only were all the supplies and equipment left outside burned down, but even the original colonial buildings on the ground broke down.
The Stormtroopers who stayed in the main building of the colony immediately went to find the Earthlings who were taking refuge, intending to force the Earthlings to repair these fatal faults.
However,
In the end, they only found the dead Imperial guards and the empty shelter.
"Damn it, where are these traitors hiding? There must be a tunnel hidden here, why didn't I find it at the time!"
——Because these tunnels had not been dug at that time and were only opened before the operation.
The rebels, who knew the exact time of the natural disaster, started taking action half an hour ago. Taking advantage of the imperial army's distraction and the help of psykers and the back door of the colony, everything was done without anyone noticing.
When the imperial troops discovered that the residents had defected and tried to remotely activate the remote-controlled bombs around the residents' necks, the remote control had already failed due to the influence of natural disasters.
The Imperials obviously didn't expect this.
The angry stormtrooper raised his blaster and fired at the wall. In the end, he only found a tunnel that had been sealed off, and there was nothing left.
Imperial officers quickly sent people to other shelters, and it turned out that this was the case for all ground shelters.
The passage to the underground shelter was unexpectedly blocked by the rebels.
The Imperial troops who were still in the underground shelter were suddenly isolated, with disastrous consequences.
There was no other way. The defenders on the ground had no choice but to send people to find a way to open the underground passage. At the same time, they could only repair the facilities damaged by natural disasters. Otherwise, they would not be able to survive before they could find those rats.
At present, the buildings in the four main colonies are roughly divided into two types:
One is a permanent building that has been reinforced many times by the aboriginal people. Although it also breaks down, it can still be inhabited;
The other type is a temporary building that was rushed out after the Imperial Army arrived. Although it looks neat and beautiful, its protection is very worrying. It is estimated that it only has a protection level of 4 to 5 level natural disasters.
According to Baron Nut's order, he required all Stormtroopers to stand by on their vehicles and be ready to attack at any time. Once a void rift near the colony was discovered, they would rush to the scene to control the situation and seize resources.
It was this order that caused a large number of the main forces of the Imperial Army to wait in the vehicles in various temporary hangars. Once this level 7 natural disaster arrived, these buildings suddenly turned into tin cans.
After discovering this situation, they immediately tried to escape to other buildings.
