Chapter 408: Harassment or confrontation?
Obsidian Battleship not only has a rich variety of game resources.
There are also many laboratories up there that develop energy weapons.
The Morg Engineers of the Burning Legion use fel energy to power energy weapons.
Of course, Herad can also use arcane energy to achieve this effect.
A fel gun that shoots fel rays can be turned into an arcane gun that shoots arcane rays with just a few modifications.
The principle of this weapon is simple, and it is also the easiest to implement!
A true electromagnetic weapon that converts evil energy into high-voltage arcs and shoots them out.
It’s a little difficult to implement!
Of course, there are difficulties that can be overcome.
Conducting experiments in the obsidian battleship's laboratory will provide great safety guarantees.
If there is a problem during the experiment, obsidian can absorb the high-voltage arc very well and prevent serious experimental accidents.
These small energy weapons used by individual soldiers are actually just a small business in the laboratory.
Large energy weapons are also being developed and initially tested here.
The evil energy main cannon on the Legion battleship has been used for tens of thousands of years.
However, those Morg engineers never thought of improving it.
The demons of the Burning Legion are very ferocious and easy to kill, and they like to crush their enemies with numbers.
Morg Engineers are demons first and engineers second.
Therefore, they don't care whether the successfully developed evil main gun still has potential to be tapped.
As long as the weapon is useful and can burn glass on the natives on the planet, it will be fine.
Then I kept using it like this.
However, when Herard obtained the relevant information, he immediately improved it.
The energy cannon on the Obsidian battleship has been improved several times.
And every time it is improved, the super magic computer conducts multiple deductions to find the best improvement plan.
Therefore, although the energy cannon is derived from the evil main gun of the legion battleship.
However, it is more powerful and has a farther range.
If it hadn't been for an asymmetric war, the Morg engineers would have discovered to their dismay that their own warships couldn't touch the enemy ships at all.
Before entering the enemy ship's range, our own warship was blown up by one shot!
The obsidian battleship's energy cannon can be so successful not only because of multiple improvements.
Testing when making improvements is also important.
The energy shells fired by the energy cannon will be absorbed by the obsidian hull and then replenished as energy.
Although there will be some losses in this process.
But compared to the one that doesn’t get a single shot after one shot, this one is just like picking it up for free!
Even if 10% of the energy is lost each time.
Even if you shoot ten rounds, you can pick up nine for nothing.
In fact, the loss is not that big.
When obsidian swallows energy, it is almost as good as a black hole!
When energy cannonballs hit it, only light can escape the absorption of obsidian.
With such high efficiency of absorption, energy loss will not exceed one percent.
Since it is a free test.
Then there is no need to consider cost when testing.
Only for range testing, actual shooting in the outside world is required.
In the largest laboratory of the Obsidian battleship, heavy energy cannon testing is currently underway.
This is a behemoth that has no additional accessories and is comparable in size to an eighteen-story residential building.
Compared to ordinary energy cannons.
That's the difference between water pipes and sewer pipes.
The water pipe is a little thicker than a finger, but the sewer pipe is much thicker than an arm.
The energy cannon currently in use can already destroy legion warships with one shot.
Heavy energy cannons are used to attack legion warships, and the damage will definitely overflow.
However, Herard did not feel it was a waste.
What does damage overflow matter?
The armor of tanks on Earth does not exceed fifty centimeters.
The armor penetration depth of tank guns is measured in meters.
Wouldn't it be too wasteful if the penetration depth is so high and the damage is greatly overflowed? No one on the battlefield would consider this issue.
Just blow up the enemy tank and you're done.
Therefore, the higher the power of the tank gun, the better.
Then it comes to the competition of who can fire the gun accurately.
But Obsidian battleships are different from tanks.
The real purpose of developing heavy energy cannons is to attack ground units.
In the magical world, there is a strong man who can defeat a city.
For example, Archimonde who tore Dalaran apart.
To deal with this extremely powerful demon, it makes sense to use a more powerful heavy energy cannon.
And it's the kind that fires volleys of heavy energy cannons.
After the Obsidian battleship conducted a simple test flight, it opened the portal and went to the predetermined target for actual combat.
Before it was transformed, it didn't just sit on the broken planet Marton every day doing nothing.
The central control system of the battleship has high autonomy.
It will analyze the situation of the detected evil planet, and then choose whether to take the initiative to engage in a low-intensity battle.
Each time, he would just hit a quick round and then run away.
I don't care if it can severely damage the vitality of the Burning Legion.
The purpose is to harass them and make them restless.
Although the Burning Legion's fleet was very large, there was no chance for an ambush.
Of course, this guerrilla method is limited to the outermost reaches of Argus.
It is absolutely impossible to attack Argus, the headquarters of the Burning Legion!
In fact, forget about Assault on Argus.
Even when fighting guerrillas in the outer areas of Argus, they cannot stay too long.
Once the Burning Legion is given a long time to prepare, it will once again experience the feeling of being surrounded.
The master might be beaten to death by random punches.
However, this time is different from before.
The modified Obsidian battleship has been strengthened in all aspects.
The stronger firepower and stronger defense give the Obsidian battleship's central control system the confidence to fight a head-on conflict that ends quickly.
When the Obsidian Battleship is at high altitude, ordinary people cannot see anything in the sky.
But the planets occupied by the Burning Legion will have the most basic defenses on them.
When it approached the target planet this time, several beholders stationed on the planet quickly discovered this uninvited guest.
The beholder has extraordinary eyesight and can see a rabbit hundreds of kilometers away.
A thousand-meter-long giant ship lies flat on the ground and can become a super-large commercial complex.
Although far enough away, it will look very small.
It's even so small that you can't see anything at all.
However, inside the beholder's super-big eye, which is larger than the desktop, it is still an out-and-out behemoth!
News of the incoming black battleship was immediately passed to Argus and handed over to the senior management for decision-making.
Kil'jaeden stood on the rooftop of the academy, listening to his men report emergency information, and his heart felt as if ten thousand horses had trampled over him.
Damn it, how many times have you been attacked?
That black battleship is shameless.
If you hit it, it will suddenly run away.
Therefore, if the fleet rushes over, it will definitely miss.
But it won’t work if we don’t rush over.
This will make it appear as if the Legion is afraid of the other party.
Thinking of this, he waved his hand.
The men behind him immediately went to arrange support matters.
Soon, the fleets stationed outside Argus began to disappear into the night sky one after another.
This is according to the predetermined plan to set up an ambush near the target planet.
After many actual combat-like exercises, the fleet has become very efficient.
