Chapter 480
Woo!
Over a sea area in the Pacific Ocean, the low roar of a starry sky thruster group resounded, and even the air on the sea surface trembled. The eight main engine nozzles on the belly and tail of the Sky-Dome Infinite power ship hull surged with indigo ion streams. The energy trail in the subsonic cruise state evaporated a thousand-meter-long atomized tunnel in the heavy rain, like a god splitting the sea curtain with a light blade.
"Viola, lower the altitude again."
On the main bridge, all members were extremely vigilant at this moment. Although it was daytime, after rushing into the hurricane zone, it had already started to rain heavily in the sky, and the sunlight was blocked. Detecting the low and heavy rain clouds above, Lin Xian had to let Viola lower the flight altitude again and again to avoid being targeted by monsters that might appear in the clouds.
The Sky-Dome Infinite skimmed the sea at low altitude, roaring one after another. The hull rolled up a vacuum shock wave ring, and the high-pressure airflow pressed the seawater down to create a depression with a diameter of 100 meters, and the wave wall rolled and burst outward in a razor shape.
The current Sky-Dome flagship added a main weapon cabin section in front, and Lin Xian added three layers of bow defense for flight collision. In addition to the hull shell itself, which is a super-carbon acetylene alloy, there are also electrostatic field generators for resisting energy weapons and fine particle streams, high-energy plasma pulse arrays for active defense, and explosion-proof high-temperature composite armor for frontal impact and dealing with explosion restarts.
With this cabin section, the Sky-Dome train can be considered to have been upgraded from the original "Starry Sky Orbital Transport Ship" to a "Far Star Colonization" weapon equipped with an autonomous defense system.
At this time, Xiang Xiang Ningjing, Hearing Shu Qin, Xiao Qing, and others were responsible for reconnaissance and firing on the arsenal ship. The triple-mounted orbital star-shaking turret and plasma plasma cannon were ready to meet the enemy at any time. Chen Sixuan, Lv Chang, Luo Yang, and others were responsible for the information system. Shasha acted as the helmsman, and others were on standby on the bridge and functional hull. Only Sun Yuzhen, Mo Xiaotian, Ding Junyi, and Xiao Yuan did not need to participate in the battle and handled logistics in the living cabin section.
Huo Ge stood alone in front of the porthole at the very front of the main bridge, with starlight-like light flashing in his eyes, a proud arc raised at the corner of his mouth, and laughed loudly at the rolling rain waves and splitting giant waves outside the porthole:
"Woo-hoo-ha-ha-ha-ha! This is our battlefield! Sky-Dome Infinite, tear through this chaotic rain curtain, step over the stormy waves, my steel giant body is riding above the heaven and earth! Mere hurricane and heavy rain are nothing but dust brushing the face — look! This pleasure of splitting the waves, making the Sea God tremble and the Cloud Demon retreat! This is worthy of the heroic fate of a great man! World, witness it, this journey that breaks through everything is the first step of my deity conquering the universe! Come on, no matter how crazy the storm is, my weaving flame will cleanse the world, ha-ha-ha!"
Bang!
However, before his full heroic spirit was fully expressed, a plasma plasma cannon on the weapon ship ahead suddenly fired. The flashing plasma drew a thunderbolt toward the sky diagonally above and exploded into a cloud layer. Under the azure flash, a strange black shadow burst out from the dark clouds, and the clouds and mist rippled away. It turned out to be a kind of winged demon monster rolling in the air and falling into the distant sea waves.
"Captain Lin, the radar captured low-altitude life forms, and I have already let the ship-borne weapons go online to turn on automatic enemy search and counterattack!"
In the communication frequency band of the main bridge, Xiang Xiang Ningjing's voice sounded.
"Good, don't be polite!"
Lin Xian looked gloomy and looked at Huo Ge: "Huo Ge, Mo Nika, Hearing Shizhi, you go to the Sky Bridge. A Bai, Kiki, Long Zhijie, you go to the bottom layer, and patrol and deal with threats in the air and sea respectively. We are moving so fast and flying so low that the coverage and reaction of defensive weapons may not keep up."
"Good." Mo Nika immediately stood up from her chair and walked directly out of the bridge. Hearing Shizhi followed behind. Huo Ge was entrusted with an important task at this time, and also immediately became serious, rubbing his hands and following.
"Kiki." Lin Xian stopped Kiki: "Besides protecting A Bai, you and Long Zhijie must also be careful not to let anything crash into us directly."
"Understood~" Kiki snapped her fingers, and her electric knife ball drone followed. Long Zhijie nodded to Lin Xian expressionlessly and then immediately hurried away.
Starship flight and train running are two completely different things. Trains have tracks, but now they are on the vast ocean and bottomless abyss, and the strange entities that appear may all be giant bodies. And under such high-speed maneuvering, it is very dangerous once they are hit, and it is even possible for the air cabin section to disintegrate. This is also why air units are more dangerous.
"Lin Xian!"
Chen Sixuan, who was temporarily acting as the technology officer, turned around from her seat with a solemn face: "Super-large tropical storm area, less than 100 nautical miles away from us!"
"So unlucky, it was sunny just now." Qian Dele complained.
"This kind of place is not just a weather trouble, pay attention to dark strange entities." Chen Sixuan recalled the storm she experienced on the Parma Ice Sheet and stated her worries.
"I know."
Lin Xian looked at Viola: "How long is it expected to reach Hawaii?"
【According to the current speed, it is expected to be 7 hours. Considering the positioning error and the impact of dark invasion on the visual interface, there may be an error of about 1 hour. It is recommended to be prepared for this.】 Viola said in a flat tone 【Normally, encountering a storm area is managed according to the starship flight manual, and it can be crossed at supersonic speed, but considering the threat of strange entities in the storm area, I can only suggest lowering the cruise speed to avoid collision accidents.】
"Lower the speed..." Lin Xian frowned: "It's impossible to guarantee arrival before dark at this speed. If you lower the speed, it will be completely impossible."
"And what is the situation on the island over there? Whether it is safe or not is another matter. If it is a place where ghosts and monsters run rampant like Haiyan Island, we can't land." Qian Dele asked Luo Yang at this time: "Hey, can you bypass this so-called storm area?"
Luo Yang shook his head immediately, took off his headset and said: "Impossible. Strictly speaking, we are already within the scope of this storm area. If we want to bypass it and arrive before dark, then we must at least accelerate to Mach 4. At this speed, there is no maneuvering avoidance and firepower defense, which may be even more dangerous."
Lin Xian shook his head: "Supersonic flight is just afraid of not dying fast enough. There is no other way, we can only take the risk to pass through the tropical storm!"
After speaking, he immediately said in the communicator: "No matter what you encounter, the first purpose is to protect the Sky-Dome Infinite to run away. Don't worry about anything else. If you are marked, think of a way after arriving on the island!"
"Good."
"Understood!"
"Xiang Xiang Ningjing, Hearing Shu Qin, decoy bombs ready, we will launch them remotely in batches in the storm area to prevent them from happening!"
Boom boom boom boom!
Under the black sky, the Sky-Dome Infinite, spitting blue tail flames, rushed through the rain curtain with a bang. The missile launch silos of the arsenal ship opened in rows at this time. 8 small missiles flew out at the same time, flying out at high speed toward the left front and right front in a wingspan posture, and then exploded in the cloud layer dozens of nautical miles away.
