Federation Year 102.
It is now the second year since Lin Fan entered Large Magellanic Cloud, and it is also the sixth month since Estelle Empire merged into the Federation!
Today, the size of the rapid response fleet has reached 20 million warships, mainly due to the addition of the original Estel after modification!
Although these modified battleships have reached the standard of Level 4 Civilization battleships, there is still a certain gap between them and the Federation's main battleships. However, they are sufficient for the current rapid response fleet to deal with Void Dragon.
Of course, this is just a temporary transition. After all, modification can quickly form combat effectiveness!
After that, as the production line of the Federation's main battleships is gradually put in place within Sirius Sector, these battleships will also be gradually phased out to be used by affiliated civilizations for point redemption.
In recent months, the rapid response fleet has achieved fruitful results. Even with the increase in the number of warships, in addition to continuing to perform rescue missions, it has gradually begun to take the initiative!
This is the second stage of the three-stage operation originally planned by Lin Fan, shifting from defense to counterattack, gradually compressing the scope of activities of Void Dragon!
At this moment, Planet Devourer is still hiding in the territory of the original Fein Federation, recovering its strength, and its main ethnic group is also missing. The ordinary Void Dragon is not an opponent of the Federation. Under this situation, in just a few months, the Federation compressed its scope of activities in the direction of the original Fein Empire by a full 1,000 light-years, and conquered a large number of star fields!
Everything is progressing smoothly according to the planned plan of Lin Fan.
At this moment, a key test is being carried out in Star System, which is 3 light years away from Ord!
In the void, a huge spaceship is parked in the void. This is the large scientific research ship Bai Zixuan.
Within its bridge, dozens of people in white coats are doing the final inspection work before the test!
Behind them, Lin Fan also brought more than ten people to observe again. In addition to a few core generals under Lin Fan, even Alwin and Bilodis were among them.
"Minister, all inspections have been completed and testing can begin!"
"Okay, start Spatial Shield system of Test Ship!"
"Yes!"
A few seconds later, Test Ship, five million kilometers away, suddenly became blurry for a moment, but immediately returned to normal. After it recovered, you could clearly see a white barrier surrounding its hull!
If you look closer and look closer, you will find that this circle of barrier has a completely different shape from Energy Shield!
Energy Shield is like a whole, while Spatial Shield is made up of countless regular hexagonal small barriers, rather than a whole, and its visual sense is much stronger than Energy Shield!
"Is this Spatial Shield from Level 5 Civilization? So beautiful!"
Bilodis looked at Test Ship in the image and couldn't help but sigh.
"It looks good. I'll talk to my brother later and let your fleet be the first to be commissioned!"
After someone heard it, he immediately came to Bilodis and whispered.
Although he said it in a low voice, there is no one here who has not used gene enhancement potions, and their hearing is very sharp!
But no one said anything. After all, everyone's name as Bilodis Tengu No. 1 has long been known, so there is nothing surprising about these words now.
However, Bilodis completely ignored Lin Tian's intention, and even looked disgusted!
"Minister, Test Ship Spatial Shield has been deployed and the energy output is stable!"
"Okay, let's start the first test, start Plasma Cannon, and shoot Test Ship three times at maximum power!"
"Yes, Minister! Plasma Cannon is starting up. It is charging and is ready to shoot!"
"Shoot!"
Following Bai Zixuan's command, the door installed on the back of Research Ship and the third-generation Plasma Cannon suddenly opened fire!
In the bridge, everyone looked at Test Ship in the video with a little nervousness!
"The first hit in three seconds! 321 hit!"
In the image, an energy bomb slammed into Spatial Shield, and then half of it seemed to be absorbed, completely submerged into Spatial Shield, and completely disappeared!
In less than 1 second, this energy bomb appeared from the tail of Test Ship again and continued to sweep towards the rear!
Soon, the second and third shots had the same ending!
Test Ship is not damaged at all!
"Success!"
In the bridge, someone shouted, and all the people in white coats jumped up excitedly, hugged and shook hands with each other!
"Quiet, the test is not over yet!"
However, before the joyful atmosphere lasted long, it was ruthlessly interrupted by a loud shout from Bai Zixuan!
In an instant, everyone fell silent, and they all remembered that they had only completed the first of the three tests today, and it was indeed not time to celebrate yet!
"Start the second test immediately and release Drones!"
"Yes!"
Bai Zixuan ordered again!
Soon, not far from Test Ship, there was a long cabinet like a container. The outer wall on its side suddenly opened, revealing many Drones parked inside!
Immediately afterwards, dozens of Drones were ejected, and started their engines and headed towards Test Ship!
"Command Drones to hit it at top speed!"
"Yes, the Drones formation is accelerating. It has reached its maximum speed and the impact will occur in 3 seconds, 321 impact!"
In the video, everyone could clearly see that dozens of Droness collided directly with the side of Test Ships in formation, and then disappeared very strangely without causing any waves!
Just like the first test just now, it felt like watching Spatial Shield swallow all the Drones!
However, soon, these Drones suddenly appeared on the other side of Test Ship, as if Spatial Shield on the other side spat them out again. The picture was very weird!
The first test tests Spatial Shield's defense against energy weapons, while the second test tests its defense against physical matter.
Clearly, both tests were successful.
But this time, the people in white coats did not cheer like last time, but looked very serious, because the highlight of the entire test was about to begin!
The third test will be to test the reaction of Spatial Shield to living organisms!
"Okay, let's do the last test and release Void Dragon!"
"Yes, Minister!"
5 million kilometers away, not far from Test Ship, there is a huge square metal box, which is half the size of a battleship!
As the outer wall of this huge box opened, everyone saw what was inside.
It was a Void Dragon that was restrained and unable to move.
"Open the restraints!"
"Yes, the restraints are being opened!"
"Ouch!!!"
A minute later, although sound cannot be transmitted in the universe, I looked at the image of Void Dragon with its head raised and Zhang Kai's big mouth.
Everyone felt like they heard its angry roar!
