2590. The end of "Eye" (Part 2)

"Hell Angel-class rush forward immediately and prepare to launch Disintegration Beam!!" Lin Nanyi gave the order decisively.

Although the current situation seems to be that the Eye of Palpatine is being beaten unilaterally, in fact, the situation is very unfavorable to Lin Nanyi.

At present, the distance between the two sides has been shortened to one light minute. At this distance, most of the weapons on both sides can already exert their maximum power. And as the distance continues to shorten, the accuracy of artillery fire from both sides will become higher and higher.

The high accuracy rate actually doesn't matter to the huge the Eye of Palpatine, but for the smaller Kingdom of Dawn battleship, this means that they will suffer a lot of battle losses!

However, under the current situation, if the Eye of Palpatine's extremely powerful electronic countermeasures capability cannot be eliminated in a short time, Kingdom of Dawn fleet will have no way to stop this super battleship from rushing in, destroying the wreckage of the Destruction battleship, and then flying away.

Lin Nanyi had to admit that he had made a wrong judgment about the Eye of Palpatine's rock layer before.

He had made full preparations for the huge threat of the Eye of Palpatine, including the nearly unlimited energy supply, the powerful shield, the powerful Super-Focused Laser, the extremely thick armor, and even the electronic countermeasures capabilities of the Eye of Palpatine.

But he was dismissive of that layer of rock. He thinks this is just a disguise of the Eye of Palpatine, and there are even craters on it, which shows that the Eye of Palpatine was built directly on an existing asteroid by hollowing it out.

Therefore, in addition to camouflage, this rock formation basically plays a role in supporting and expanding the construction surface to facilitate construction in the early stages of construction. Once the battleship is completed, it is useless.

However, when the war situation developed now, Lin Nanyi discovered that this rock layer made of special materials was actually the first problem he needed to solve!!

Because of the existence of this rock formation, it blocked the scanning of most sensors, making it impossible for the Kingdom of Dawn warship to accurately know the detailed combat data of the Eye of Palpatine, and it was also unable to predict its next attack method based on the opponent's weapon charging status.

And what's even more deadly is that this layer of rock isolates most of the electromagnetic waves, which makes the electronic interference from Kingdom of Dawn's electronic warfare ship almost ineffective against the Eye of Palpatine! The Eye of Palpatine is now almost a unilateral attack. There is no need to worry about interference from the opponent, and it is directly invincible.

If the problem of electronic interference cannot be solved, missiles and fighter jets will all become a pile of scrap metal!

Therefore, Lin Nanyi took the risk and issued this combat order - let Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser use Disintegration Beam!

Disintegration Beam is not actually the latest weapon of Kingdom of Dawn. This weapon has been developed for two years, but has never been used on a large scale. The main problem is that the Disintegration Beam is difficult to focus, so the range is very short.

It was not until later that Kingdom of Dawn Navy tentatively installed Disintegration Beam on Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser. Because Hell Angel-class has sufficient defensive capabilities, it can break into a position closer to the enemy ship and attack.

Disintegration Beam, as its name suggests, is a weapon that can directly eliminate targets at the molecular level. It is an electromagnetic field weapon that uses a strong magnetic field to deflect the positive and negative dipoles of molecules or ion groups to varying degrees, thereby separating molecules or breaking chemical bonds.

Therefore, it is not accurate to say that it is a beam. This weapon only looks like a beam when it is emitted, but in fact, it is an electromagnetic field. And because this electromagnetic field is not a direct effect of energy, it will not trigger a reaction from the enemy ship Deflector Shield.

Because of this, the range of Disintegration Beam is very short, less than 1,000 kilometers. No matter how far the distance is, the electromagnetic field will dissipate. Of course, if you can hit it, the benefits will be huge. Take Imperial-class Star Destroyer as an example. Once Disintegration Beam continuously attacks the core position, the central reactor will be injured in less than 10 minutes, resulting in paralysis or even explosion.

Therefore, this instruction from Lin Nanyi is to let Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser take the risk and break into 1000 kilometers of the Eye of Palpatine! This is completely a fatal distance!

Because even though Hell Angel-class is thick-skinned and thick-skinned, he cannot resist the powerful firepower of the Eye of Palpatine!

However, this is the only way at the moment.

Lin Nanyi's adjutant hesitated when he heard this instruction, but when he saw Lin Nanyi's firm eyes, he nodded heavily and said loudly, "Yes!"

T-series tactical robot on the other side said in a straight and flat voice, "According to simulations, Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser may suffer large battle losses."

Lin Nanyi's face became a little gloomy, but he still said, "Execute the order!"

Now Durov-class Battlecruiser is assisting the electronic warfare warship. There is definitely no room to assist Hell Angel-class, so we can only rely on them for this battle!

The 20 Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser equipped with Disintegration Beam began to accelerate away from the fleet array and rushed towards the Eye of Palpatine.

In order to cover their actions, more than 60,000 Swarm II Droness on Consul-class aircraft carrier swarmed in, surrounding these Hell-Angel Class Battlecruisers and interfering with the shooting of the Eye of Palpatines.

The distance between the two sides continues to get closer, and now it has reached 0.7 light minutes.

At this distance, Particle Beam Lance had almost a 100% hit rate, but at this time, the Eye of Palpatine finally started to fire at full power! It starts firing tons of missiles!

Super AI "The Will" apparently thought that it would be difficult to hit a missile if it was launched in advance, so it only started to launch missiles when it was close enough. Its behavioral logic is not just a rigid computer.

The launch of the first wave of thousands of missiles unexpectedly caused huge trouble for Kingdom of Dawn fleet!

Because of the Eye of Palpatine's powerful electronic interference, the Kingdom of Dawn warship's ability to intercept missiles plummeted, and one-third of the thousands of missiles actually hit the target! Two Light Cruisers were even destroyed by missiles! This is also the first time Kingdom of Dawn has suffered battle losses since the battle began.

Lin Nanyi's fists are clenched tightly, and now the Eye of Palpatine's rock formation must be solved as soon as possible! Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous!

20 Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser quickly approached under the protection of Swarm II Drones. The Eye of Palpatine also noticed these warships, and it immediately turned its gun muzzle and started shooting.

The Eye of Palpatine has a total of Group Four Turbolaser gun arrays. Each array has hundreds of heavy-duty Turbolaser Turrets. Under full firepower, the densely packed Turbolaser beams also carry destructive power.

Swarm II Drones rushed forward one after another, trying to block the fire of the Turbolaser cannon for Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser. But even so, one Hell Angel-class was still destroyed by countless gunfire, and the other three were severely damaged and slowed down, leaving them far behind.

At this time, the Eye of Palpatine Super-Focused Laser, which had been kept charged, suddenly launched! This is a Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser that accidentally entered the range of the super laser.

Eight extremely powerful lasers are gathered together in the dish-shaped device in front of the Eye of Palpatine, and then merged into a beam under the constraints of the magnetic field, and then fired instantly!

The dazzling light lit up, and Super-Focused Laser was like a sharp sword, directly cutting the entire Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser ship with shield and hull into two pieces! A violent explosion immediately erupted from the fracture and continued to spread toward the interior. In less than three minutes, the Hell Angel-class was blown into countless pieces!

Hundreds of crew members and more robots in the battleship were also wiped out!

However, the remaining 15 Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser finally rushed within 1000 kilometers of the Eye of Palpatine! They chose to cut in from the diagonal top of the Eye of Palpatine. The super battleship's main firepower was concentrated on the flanks and front, while the firepower above was weaker.

The shortcoming of uneven firepower caused by this strange potato-like shape gave Hell Angel-class the last chance.

Following the orders from the captains of each battleship, an additional turret installed in front of the 15 Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser suddenly fired a light beam that looked very 'loose'. This beam looks similar to something between particles and light, slightly yellow and green, and does not feel the temperature that a laser beam should have.

But when these Disintegration Beam were shot at the Eye of Palpatine, the extremely powerful Deflector Shield did not react at all, allowing the beam to shine on the surface rock formation.

The moment Disintegration Beam came into contact with the rock formation, a strange phenomenon occurred. The extremely hard rock formation immediately began to disintegrate over a large area, as if it were made of sand, showing countless particles that were so small that they were almost invisible and continued to dissipate!

Moreover, this disintegration phenomenon is still spreading, as if a chain reaction has occurred.

Large tracts of rock formations began to disintegrate, but the rock formations of the Eye of Palpatine were tens of meters thick, and coupled with the huge volume, it was completely the size of an entire mountain range! Even if 15 Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser launch Disintegration Beam at the same time, it will take a long time to crack the entire rock formation.

Lin Nanyi saw this and decisively issued the order again, "The entire army will attack immediately!"

Can't wait any longer!

Even if taking the initiative now would cause greater losses than expected, he couldn't care less about it now. If the 15 Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser cannot be covered, the next battle will be even more passive!

According to the combat arrangement of Vice Admiral Lin Nanyi, five Hell-Angel Class Battlecruisers, all controlled by robots, stood at the front, followed closely by five Divinity-class battleships. The other warships lined up behind to form a Claw Formation array, attacking in a roundabout way from four directions!

At this moment, as a large area of rock formation collapsed, the Eye of Palpatine became visibly anxious. It began to turn sharply, trying to use the Super-Focused Laser directly in front to continue shooting at the Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser around it, while also using the Turbolaser gun array on its flank to conduct more violent attacks.

This is the first time the Eye of Palpatine has turned since the war began!

As long as it does not fly straight towards the wreckage of Destruction battleship, then it means that the tactical arrangement is effective!

"Attack!" Lin Nanyi waved his hand and said loudly.

All battleships accelerate!

At this time, the Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser controlled by the five robots at the front worked wonders!

Originally, Lin Nanyi had a total of 40 Hell Angel-classs, 20 of which were equipped with Disintegration Beam. When making tactical arrangements, Lin Nanyi did not choose to let the robot control the Hell Angel-class equipped with Disintegration Beam. After all, those are just consumables and human shields, so it makes sense that they don't need to be updated.

However, this also resulted in the fact that the 20 Hell Angel-classs could only be boarded by themselves, and among the 5 battleships lost, they were all alive!

But at this moment, when the follow-up fleet caught up, the Eye of Palpatine immediately focused on Hell Angel-class, controlled by the five robots at the front.

It believed that these Hell Angel-classs were also capable of launching Disintegration Beams, so it immediately turned its guns and fired at these five warships.

Because the Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser controlled by these five robots have very rigid tactical positions and can be easily locked.

Super-Focused Laser launched again, cutting the Hell Angel-class into two pieces like a sharp sword! Then came the second ship!

Not only that, under the fierce firepower of the Eye of Palpatine, two ships of Hell Angel-class that launched Disintegration Beam were destroyed again, and two more ships were severely damaged and withdrawn from the battle.

However, seizing this opportunity won with blood, the main fleet is approaching the Eye of Palpatine, firing countless firepower at close range!

The Eye of Palpatine was suddenly concerned about one thing and not the other. The charge of a large number of fleets allowed it to fire back continuously and at the same time, it could only temporarily ignore the Hell Angel-class that launched Disintegration Beam!

The battle unfolded without any fanfare. The two sides only competed with artillery fire and shields!

Finally, as the rock formations continued to disintegrate, the metal body of the Eye of Palpatine was gradually revealed. Because it is built on an asteroid, even if it has full coverage of neutron armor, the internal shape of the Eye of Palpatine is also irregular potato-shaped, which is very ugly.

Whether it's ugly or not is secondary. Lin Nanyi finally got the report he dreamed of.

"General! Doomsday Battlefield class sent a message! Power-Destroying Device takes effect!" the communications soldier said loudly.

Lin Nanyi pumped his fist excitedly and said loudly, "Doomsday Battlefield class, concentrate all the energy on Power-Destroying Device! The electronic warfare ship will follow immediately! Disintegration Beam continue to launch! Send out the rescue boat!"

"Yes!"

Five Doomsday Battlefield-class battlecruisers approached quickly, and Power-Destroying Device aimed at the Eye of Palpatine!

A large amount of reactor energy supply was neutralized by Power-Destroying Device, and the Eye of Palpatine's extremely powerful energy supply finally showed a flaw!

And seizing this opportunity, all Kingdom of Dawn fleet's electronic warfare warships are fully powered!
