I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World-Chapter 385 - 264: Abnormality of the Stars
Chapter 264: Abnormality of the Stars
Translator: 549690339 |
The enemy’s algorithms were far superior to those of humans, but in doing so, they inadvertently provided guidance for the stars. As long as parameters could be continually collected from the front, they might be cracked.
To buy time for the stars, Nora Camp made a new decision.
“Advance the shield-type fortress! Release an indiscriminate coverage interference field!”
The battlefield situation changed rapidly, and it was necessary to adapt on the fly. The cover for Harrison Clark’s side was now over.
Due to the change in enemy ship positions, Harrison Clark and the others no longer needed the curved space. Following the solar wind straight forward, they happened to aim at the relocated spherical battleship.
As the enormous force field of the shield-type fortress swept through, the regions already mixed with the main fleet and dragonfly enemy aircraft saw their ever-changing spatial structures become even more chaotic.
As the dragonfly enemy aircraft moved forward, they left the range of the proton fission explosion’s glow, and human eyes and detectors could no longer capture their traces. However, without a doubt, the intervention of the shield-type fortress temporarily locked the enemy aircraft in this area.
Of course, the human main fleet was also trapped inside.
Even though Star and the fortresses’ built-in intelligent cores were doing their best to control the friend-or-foe recognition system, it was simply too difficult to manipulate such a huge and high-intensity twisted space, and humans could no longer achieve precise control of their attacks.
While damaging enemy aircraft, friendly combat units would sometimes be destroyed by the spatial tearing force as well.
Large and medium-sized ships in the main fleet could no longer strictly execute friend-or-foe recognition.
In order to hit the “invisible” enemy aircraft as much as possible, they had to use area weapons continuously.
Although Falcon Warriors had already taken the Meteor Elixir, unleashing strength equal to Sky Eagles, in such a chaotic situation, casualties were still inevitable, and authentic Sky Eagle Warriors were no exception.
Of course, the most significant threat to human combat units still came from the elusive and untraceable Dragonfly Fighters.
After fighting for so long, humans still couldn’t figure out the essence of the enemy aircraft’s attack methods, only guessing and predicting according to the appearance of their injuries.
Some high-mobility close-combat armor-shaped fighters would suddenly be cut in half during flight, presumably by the enemy aircraft’s wings.
Then the fighters quickly adapted, changing into larger assault forms, but the assault-shaped armor would be pierced through the chest.
After another adjustment, they opted for the ultimate form with the highest material structure stability, overall performance, and energy consumption. This was slightly better.
The enemy aircraft could no longer pierce through the chest, but in an extremely short time, they repeatedly cut several gaps in the ultimate form armor and eventually caused an explosion.
In addition, some people suddenly burst open while flying, presumably having been directly hit by the enemy’s weapons.
Based on the information gathered by the detectors, technical staff speculated that this should be a kind of endogenous explosion method. With a minimal amount of energy consumption, the atomic structure of the composition material could undergo a rapid chain self-fission, resulting in this sudden explosion phenomenon.
As Mr. Connor put it, “This is poison! This is a damn physical poison!” The appearances of the large ship’s destruction were quite similar, with the difference being that these spontaneous explosions often happened in multiple areas on the ship’s body simultaneously. The explosions then spread like a lit corner of a tissue and quickly engulfed the entire ship.
This process was extremely fast, but indeed there was a spread process, albeit so fast that it approached the speed of light, creating a visual illusion.
The precise battlefield detectors accurately captured this process and displayed it on the projection in front of the commanders’ sequence after slowing it down by countless times.
Star tentatively analyzed it but soon found the technology level too high and swiftly gave up.
There were too many places on the battlefield for her to take care of, especially when attempting to crack the stealth algorithm of the dragonfly enemy aircraft, and barely maintaining the friend-or-foe recognition ability of the functional fortress, among many other subtle operations. The tremendous pressure strained her seemingly boundless computing power to its limit.
The fiercely contested area turned into a massive meat grinder.
Although they still couldn’t accurately locate the enemy aircraft, over time, relying on the completely saturated and overflowing internal indiscriminate firepower coverage, debris from destroyed enemy aircraft would occasionally become visible in cosmic space, regardless of friendly casualties.
Compared to the enemy’s ten million aircraft, only a few dozen could be killed every second on average, and the casualty ratio was totally unreasonable. The mam fleet could only hold out for a maximum of ten minutes before being completely devoured.
But at least this proved human weapons could cause harm to the invaders and successfully halted the progress of the dragonfly enemy aircraft towards the human rear fleet.
About two minutes later, the main fleet, originally consisting of over 7o million ships, quickly reduced to 50 million ships, and the Eagle Strike Warriors also suffered heavy losses.
Mr. Green’s flagship was destroyed, and he was killed in action.
The position of commander of the main fleet was taken over by Lauren Danni Fox.
As Lauren’s ability was slightly weaker than Mr. Green’s, Nora Camp intervened to help maintain the situation.
If nothing unexpected happened, in about three minutes, the main fleet would be left with fewer than 20,000 ships, and the casualty rate of Eagle Strike Warriors would exceed 80%. The stealth battleships would then further penetrate deep into the enemy lines and directly target the commander’s flagship location, or attempt to destroy the currently charging giant cannon fortress and the shield fortress that played a crucial role.
Nora Camp needed to oversee the overall situation while simultaneously participating in micro-controlling the main fleet. Her mental state was already stretched to its limit. Improved energy liquid and atomic robot repair fluid had already been applied.
It was six minutes before Harrison Clark and the others would arrive at the spherical battleship.
No matter if she could hold on, Nora Camp had to hold on. She had to keep the dragonfly fighters at bay while completely drawing the enemy’s attention.
She could only silently pray that Harrison Clark and the others would not be discovered by the spherical battleship. Otherwise, given the lethal power of the dragonfly fighters, they could instantly divert millions of them to strike Harrison Clark’s team. Even Harrison Clark himself would be in great danger, not to mention the particle loaders.
She did not know that at this moment, far behind her, the situation at Earth’s core was also precarious.
As the star constantly squeezed the core’s computational power, the Earth and the various quantum supercomputers built in space already ran at full capacity, unable to provide even a sliver of extra computational power.
However, there was one place that could – the core intelligence she had completed by simulating the structure of the human brain!
To quickly crack the invisibility principle of the dragonfly enemy aircraft, the star increased the energy supply layer by layer, raising the frequency of electric current oscillations in the core intelligence.
The core intelligence had already overheated beyond the limits of stability. With too much heat bursting out, the inner transitional layer, which was originally a solid-liquid mixture, had completely melted into a liquid state. Under extremely high pressure, the liquid structure, which could normally withstand nearly 6,000 degrees of high temperature, now showed signs of boiling.
Meanwhile, the logical main body concealed in the neuron cells of Harrison Clark s cerebral cortex was also collapsing at a faster rate.
According to her previous accurate calculations, when August arrived, she would enter an irreversible rapid decay period. She would have to allocate at least 99% of her computational power to maintaining her own stability to barely survive a few more days.
She still had a few days left.
But as she continued to push herself, the great collapse she faced arrived ahead of schedule, and her irreversible decay was further intensified due to her extremely “unreasonable” allocation of computational power at this time.
She was doing something an artificial intelligence could never do.
With her entirely breaking through the three basic laws of artificial intelligence, even if she could only live a second longer, she should prioritize maintaining her own stability.
But now, she wasn’t.
Harrison Clark didn’t know any of this. He only knew that his brain was a bit itchy, which was bearable, and he occasionally noticed that the awakening rate of his genes had started to jump upwards at 0.02% from 35.1%.
A minute later, new changes occurred.
The invaders once again increased the intensity of the Song of the Wilderness! This action caused the surface of the spherical battleship’s flowing light shield to become even more unstable, but because the main human fleet was dealing with the dragonfly fighters, they could not spare a moment to care about it.
The humans couldn’t seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
It seemed that the invaders were also starting to become impatient, tired of tangled affairs. They again weakened their defense and strengthened their offense, attempting to bring the battle to an end.
Everything happened too fast.
No matter how much Harrison Clark calculated and mapped out, Nora Camp could not predict that the invaders would increase the intensity of the Song of the Wilderness in such a short period.
The signal from the player on Mercury simply couldn’t arrive in time!
Due to the limitation of the speed of light, in the previous operations, Harrison Clark had the eight medium-sized players on Ganymede release electromagnetic waves and gravitational waves of both carriers well in advance before the opponents arrived. This was a skillfully calculated move.
The player on Mercury had also considered some advance quantity but was ultimately a bit late. This was an unavoidable error when Harrison Clark faced a completely new situation that he had never seen before. It was already a stroke of luck to have guessed it right once.
From now on, the formation of particle-interference bombs began to become irreversible.
In their previous battles, although the power of particle-interference bombs was extremely astonishing and could completely engulf an entire space, there was nowhere to escape from. The invaders had become habituated to dropping them near the power cabin of the battleship.
This seemed to be a war instinct.
But this time, the invaders changed their strategy. They no longer targeted any particular location and instead randomly selected a position near the battleship and directly launched the bombs.
However, the invaders did not launch the particle-interference bombs into the war zone where the dragonfly enemy aircraft were mixed in, but aimed at the reserve fleets and war fortresses behind them. The number launched was not as terrifying as before, at most a few million.
As the number decreased, the launching speed also increased a lot.
However, the rear fleet was also well prepared.
