Chapter 17 There are no tears in space (4)
When the blue light appears in space, it is an exciting experience for everyone on the passenger ship. Just imagine that in the dark, light years as the distance, tens of thousands of years as the instant eternal space, such a bright dynamic color surges in front of people, just like a treasure given by God.
Although the passengers on the passenger ship had made a jump trip, they had not seen the real scene of jumping out of the airline with their own eyes. A travel poet once compared the jumping of space to as beautiful as the dolphins on the ancient earth's summer, which was once very fascinating. So much so that all passengers now have no abnormality in their eyes, only admiration for this wonder.
But anyone with experience in spacecraft understands that at this moment, something unusual has happened.
The stirring of space ended, and a colorful starship appeared on the flanks of the Seagull and Tianma frigates.
This starship looks different from other passenger ships and Imperial military warships like the Tianma. Its size is more powerful than the Tianma frigate. Compared with it, the Tianma is like a small man facing a tall man.
The shape of the starship is a bit strange. The front end is like a round hull like a currency copper coin, with strange grooves on both sides, and a strange and colorful paint all over the body. The entire starship looks like a dangerous fish staring at the two ships in front of them.
This is a warship, and not just an ordinary warship, but a destroyer!
Such a painting will feel weird when it appears on civilian ships, not to mention on a destroyer. The more colorful animals there are in the deep sea, the more weird and dangerous it means. In this moment, the appearance of this ship has caused the passengers of the Seagull who are observing on the observation deck to gradually evolve from initial excitement to some uneasy and panic.
At this moment, many people on a frigate and a civil aviation passenger ship were watching the outside through the porthole. Against the background of the star like an octopus and crab-like stare, the destroyer quietly appeared on the side of the universe, motionless, making people feel even more creepy.
In the voyage room of the Seagull, the captain and the commander of the pilot were already in a hurry.
"Hurry up and communicate with the other party!"
"During the interference of stellar activity, the distance from the other party is too far away, and the electromagnetic emission is extremely attenuated. The communication signal cannot be known by the other party, and we cannot receive the other party's signal."
"Increase the power and continue to try to connect to the communication, fire up the lighting flares, and ask them about their purpose."
Captain Seagull has a sailing history of nearly twenty years and has a great effect at critical moments. At this moment, he looked at the silent starship on the screen as it was enlarged on the screen by the visiting glass, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart.
"Tianma, Tianma, this is the Seagull. We need to confirm the situation of that ship, whether your military's response ship..."
"Zi... zi... we are also communicating with each other to confirm... Please wait..."
The navigation room was in a brief silence.
In addition to the captain, the engineer, the first mate, and the chief of the ship here have more or fewer decades of experience in the field of civil spacecraft. At this time, everyone's face could not hide a look of panic. Obviously, they all thought of a possibility, but in this terrible tranquility, no one dared to speak first.
Open the Pandora's box-like ominous sign.
In the cabins of the Seagull passenger ship, people were surrounded by portholes.
From this brief tranquility of the intersection, people had already had some problems. Seeing the Tianma frigate not far from the passenger ship outside the porthole, and then seeing the New South Star with a wide horizon in their sight, they finally came back to their senses from their longing for a joyful journey with adventure and excitement.
A fat man's face against the glass window began to gradually twist and change, and then in extreme horror, he exclaimed that word.
“…It’s an empty thief!”
The entire cabin seemed to have a very short silence, and people's facial expressions began to change gradually in panic.
"This is the painting of the thief!"
"God, we actually encountered an air pirate!"
Many people know about the New South Star Pirates issue that has been causing a lot of controversy in the Milan star area recently. This has become a hot topic in civilized society. However, for most people, although the pirates are a group of desperate people, robbing cargo ships, holding hostages and extorting the government, it is a story that happened elsewhere, which is far from their lives in civilized society, having families, status, lovers, relatives, comfortable work and monthly vacations.
Although the air pirates appear in the Xinnan Star Universe, people actually know that most air pirates are active outside the empire's territory. In fact, they are still tens of millions of kilometers away from the Xinnan Star. What's more, the empire's patrol fleet often just patrols, and the air pirates will run far away. Not to mention that air pirates appear so close to the Xinnan Star!
The passenger ship immediately seemed to be in chaos, with babies crying suddenly, people panic, children running, and some people rushing to the viewing window and looking at the pirate ship with great enthusiasm. Although many people are frightened, for many people, pirates are like an exhibition, providing topics for people to view. More of them are not fearful, but curious, wanting to see how these guys who were chased by imperial warships and robbed cargo ships from time to time, so that those who exploited the bourgeoisie's jumping foot and pain limit looked like three heads and six arms.
So at this time, the pair of eyes not only showed fear, but also curiosity, appreciation, and various expressions, paying attention to the colorful warship in space.
At this time, Li Yifeng's face was extremely gloomy and terrifying. The adjutant beside him looked at the Tianma frigate flying beside the passenger ship, knowing that the current frigate would definitely be as busy as in the passenger ship. When the Tianma frigate was sailing, the soldiers on the ship were already excited when they thought of the replay lady they wanted to guard. When the frigate's majesty posture broke through and flew away from the planet, everyone felt the passion of the head.
But I didn't expect that this time I would encounter such a situation before my eyes.
The people of this passenger ship believed in the majesty of the Imperial warship that only people like Li Yifeng and soldiers with great combat experience in the Tianma frigate understood how unfavorable they were in at this moment.
Li Yifeng felt a flash of fear in his heart, looked at the extremely dangerous warship in space, and murmured, "When did the pirates in Xinnan Star actually have a destroyer of this level?"
It is precisely because we know the combat capability of the Tianma frigate that we understand the difference between them and the destroyers in front of us.
In the bridge room of the passenger ship, the captain and others were waiting for the feedback from the frigate next to them with great anxiety.
The communicator finally rang, "...she... the opponent's warship was unresponsive, all the members entered the first-level combat readiness!... Turn the head of the ship, please leave the current airspace immediately... Detect the thermal energy effect of the opponent's warship, Tianma is ready for battle! Repeat, the opponent fires, Tianma is ready for battle!"
It is as dark as ink, like a long scroll of galaxies,
The Tianma began to leave the formation of the Seagull and was turning to the Shunsi who intended to face the other side. On both sides of the round bow of the colorful warship, some fire suddenly spurted out in the deep space.
In space, rows of space torpedo compartments like fisheyes on the bow of the air pirate destroyer gradually opened, and torpedoes dragging the flame-tailed one by one shot out.
At the same time, the vertical array missile hatch doors were also opened in rows, and missiles rose from the destroyer.
The revolving gun door of the hull automatically locks the Tianma and the Seagull in the distance, and the thermal cannons are bombarded one by one.
This is a ruthless move to keep the two warships in this airspace forever.
For the first time in history, a destroyer from the air pirate actually fired at the warships of the Great Eagle Empire in the territory of the empire.
Not only were all the crew members of the Seagull stunned at this moment, but even the soldiers in the Tianma frigate were caught off guard by this situation.
"The gun door opens, walk to the hotline cannon energy shield! The near-defense cannon launches barrage defense against missile fish, the engine has two-quarters of the thrust, and the hull is spread horizontally to cover the Seagull!"
After a brief shock, the captain of the Tianma quickly responded with extremely profound combat experience. "Opening the hull horizontally will cause us to be attacked by the maximum area, Captain!" a tactical officer warned.
The old captain with mustache sat firmly on the command seat and said in a deep voice, "I understand that with the interference of star activities and the opening of shields, the opponent's missiles and torpedoes cannot be guided, and they can only carry out indiscriminate coverage. At this time, don't forget our mission. If this warship hurts the civil ship behind us...the Imperial Starship, how can we get along in the future?"
