"Bzzzt..." Coils of silver spirals around the Long-Lived One's trunk began to flicker with electricity.
As powerful currents surged through the coils, an invisible, intense magnetic field filled the surrounding space, fluctuating at high frequency!
The countless high-speed metal projectiles fired by the Sea Race Fleet slammed headlong into this invisible barrier before they could reach the Long-Lived One.
As they drew closer, the projectiles not only slowed drastically but also began to glow red with heat. Then, like melting chocolate, they melted into pools of red-hot liquid metal before being vaporized into clouds of gas, losing all capacity to threaten their target...
"High-frequency magnetic shield detected. Electromagnetic kinetic weapon attacks ineffective!"
The Sea Race AI Core's notification sent another wave of shifting expressions across the officers' faces.
They had never expected the enemy to turn their own methods against them, countering their electromagnetic kinetic weapons with the same electromagnetic defensive technology.
Clearly, the enemy not only had formidable physical defenses but had also prepared for the enormous threat posed by kinetic weapons!
Before the Gemini Civilization developed the Force Field Shield, high-frequency magnetic shields had once been widely used throughout the Twin Stars' fleets.
However, the primary weapons on interstellar battlefields were light-speed weapons, against which magnetic shields were utterly useless. Coupled with the powerful protection offered by Force Field Shields, this had led to magnetic shields gradually being phased out.
Projectiles launched using electromagnetic technology naturally had to be made not merely of metal, but of magnetic materials, making them perfectly susceptible to electromagnetic defenses.
It certainly proved that saying true.
There was no strongest weapon, only the most suitable one!
However, the greater a magnetic shield's coverage and power, the higher its requirements for conductive materials. Overloading could easily melt the circuits.
For a fortress-class magnetic shield
