Aboard the Earth.
Lü Yongchang watched the scene with a grim expression.
"Zero, run a spectral analysis on the white smoke!"
The results soon appeared before Lü Yongchang.
"Nitrogen, and some fine dust..."
Lü Yongchang studied the analysis report in the holographic projection thoughtfully.
It worked along much the same lines as humanity's giant smoke bombs.
However, the enemy fleet's technology was a passive ability.
It only triggered when an attack damaged the surface armor.
Its operating principle was easy enough to deduce.
It simply used liquid nitrogen to rapidly cool the area under attack, while the "smog" weakened the laser weapons.
Lü Yongchang quietly recorded this in his notes.
They could use this method as a reference for future fleet upgrades.
At least for now, this "passive ability" seemed faster to activate and more flexible than interstellar smoke bombs!
While the Human Fleet launched its attack, the enemy did not sit idle.
They launched another high-energy laser attack against the Human Fleet.
For a time, dangerous high-energy lasers filled the vast interstellar battlefield!
Unlike the enemy starships, humanity had different defenses.
Besides keeping their starships spinning, the Human Fleet relied on Starship Adaptive Repair Technology powered by vast numbers of nano-robots to withstand the lasers.
To put it simply:
The enemy resisted laser attacks mainly by stacking armor and putting up shields.
Human starships, on the other hand, relied mainly on evasive movement and constant health regeneration.
Time ticked by.
The rounds fired by the Human Fleet's Type II Electromagnetic Cannons and plasma cannons finally crossed the immense distance and reached the Little Gray Men's fleet.
Something unexpected happened.
Neither the electromagnetic cannon projectiles nor the deep-blue plasma shells crackling with golden electricity successfully struck the enemy's medium and large starships!
They exploded just before hitting the
