I Am the Swarm

"No, our observation devices over there were all destroyed. This was taken with the large shipboard telescope on the Qila Goddess." Malachi shook his head and said.

The Qila Goddess is a functional ship, which integrates a variety of large-scale observation instruments.

"As for why they turned into this appearance, it must be the hidden civilization. Although I don't know what they are going to do, it must be related to the energy reaction that appears. And the other party can change on such a large scale in a short period of time The environment of planets and satellites, this is something that even our Rikens cannot do. Therefore, this is not the negligence of our intelligence department, but that the other party is beyond our understanding, and the other party may be far more troublesome than we imagined There are many."

Malachi first shirked a wave of responsibility, but the arrogance in his bones still believed that even so, the other party had only turned from a small trouble to a big trouble.

"We really can't do this kind of method. Maybe this is a unique ability of biological civilization, but what's the matter with the opponent's electromagnetic gun?" A staff officer asked.

"What's so strange about this? There are even creatures that spit nuclear bombs. What is it that can launch electromagnetic guns? The atomic organs in the monster's body are much more technologically advanced than electromagnetic guns. Maybe that monster is the experimental product of the civilization on the opposite side. "Another captain complained.

"That makes sense, Dr. Balter, what do you think?"

"The internal structure of that monster is beyond my knowledge, and I can't tell whether it is a natural product or an artificial product." Dr. Balter, who was thinking about the problem, did not expect the problem to suddenly turn to him. He thought Think, honestly answered the question.

"I don't think it's a good time to discuss this issue. Since just now, the energy fluctuations of T855 have not stopped. Should we focus on this?" A captain saw that someone still wanted to Continue to ask questions, kindly reminded.

"That's right." The captain echoed.

"We can't know the power of their electromagnetic guns, and we can't guess the flying speed of the shells, but I suggest that the fleet need to do some evasive operations?"

"The fleet will now launch all the detectors, and then offset 3,000 kilometers to the coordinate 31.67." General Massai felt that the proposal was very reasonable, so he ordered.

After a few months, the entire Likon fleet started to fire again and slowly moved to the side. The shells of the electromagnetic cannon can't change direction midway, and they should be able to avoid the opponent's firepower as long as they leave their original positions.

A day later, the communication conference room.

"The opponent's electromagnetic gun still hasn't stopped, and the attack has continued."

"We have changed positions three times, and now we can no longer determine where the opponent is aiming."

"Did the detector find anything?"

"not yet."

Suddenly, Malachy landed in the conference room with some new news.

"Gentlemen, this is the latest observation from our detectors."

Several video images were uploaded to the large screen in the conference room.

Above is the deep void, occasionally flashing a few blue arcs.

"What is this?" a captain asked suspiciously.

"This is what the other party shot over!" Malachy replied, "Our detectors found them, and this is the picture slowed down by 5,000 times. According to their flight trajectories, they will pass through our fleet 2,000 kilometers away."

"It looks like it doesn't look like a cannonball!"

"Perhaps that's what their shells look like."

"I just saw some blue arcs."

"Their stealth technology is quite advanced. If it weren't for those electric arcs, our detectors would not be able to detect them at all."

"You mean they put cloaking devices on the shells? That's a nice idea."

"Maybe they should consider shielding the energy fluctuation of the electromagnetic gun, maybe it will be more effective."

Hearing that he couldn't hit himself and lost his sense of threat, the many Riken commanders let themselves go.

In fact, the optical cloaking and electromagnetic signal shielding systems of the swarm are quite advanced. If it wasn't for slowing down and activating the plasma engine organs to reveal observable energy signals, the Rickens would probably not be able to discover them until the octopuses in space rode their faces.

"I have bad news for everyone. They may not be shells. According to the data transmitted by the detector, these things are slowing down. According to the calculation of the outline when the arc flickered, they are all big guys over 500 meters." Malachy added.

"It's unbelievable. If I didn't know the inside story, I almost thought they were the ones who launched the meteorite that crashed into the Trimblen area." A captain murmured softly.

"Could it be a conspiracy by the military department?"

"Don't think about it, how is this possible."

"How soon are they within our range?" General Massai asked.

"They are constantly slowing down, but even so, it is estimated that after 30 hours, they will approach our 300,000 kilometers and enter the effective range." Malachy replied after looking at the data on the personal terminal.

"Everyone, no matter what they are, I think destroying them before approaching us is the best option." Seeing that the captains all nodded in agreement, General Massai continued: "Malachi, next you The task of the intelligence department is very heavy, I want you to lock all the invisible objects as much as possible, mark their flight trajectories one by one, and then I will let the artificial intelligence assign everyone's attack area based on the data."

"receive!"

In the following time, the Riken tribe entered into intense pre-war preparations, and the densely packed forts on the battleship came into play. With the help of artificial intelligence, they locked the flying objects one by one, and waited until they entered the attack distance. will launch an attack.

"So many?" In the first round, more than 500 unknown objects were locked. This is only the first wave. There will be three or four waves later, and the total number may exceed two thousand.

"What exactly is this?"

"I don't like them alive."

"Me too."

The time of contact is getting closer and closer, and the hearts of the Riken people are raised. No matter how confident they are, this is the first time they have fought against an alien civilization. They are writing history now, so they have to be nervous.

"Be careful! Dodge quickly!" Suddenly, Maqila's roar came.

These insidious guys on the opposite side actually fired many solid projectiles behind those guys who could emit arcs. Since these projectiles didn't need to slow down, they came from behind and ran to the front.

Of course, this is the result of precise calculations. During the interval between the ejection of troops, the swarm launched two waves of physical ammunition for the first round of long-range support.

Because these projectiles are much smaller, the detectors didn't detect them until they were right in front of them.
