Super Copy of Great Power Technology

A few minutes later, the first wave of attacks initiated by the intelligent system came to an end, the enemy ships' counterattack also quickly stopped, the nearby airspace returned to darkness, and the radar waves swept across, clearly showing the situation of the enemy warships on the radar screen.

"Commander, the first wave of attacks launched by the intelligent system has achieved very limited results. The enemy has only lost three of its smallest warships, and the rest are intact. Radar echo analysis suggests that there may be some kind of energy shield around the enemy ships, which has blocked attacks from space mines and various types of shells."

"Okay, I knew it wasn't that simple. The Sirius people's technological level is similar to that of us humans on Earth. We have already mastered a variety of force field shield and energy shield technologies, so how could they not have mastered even one?"

"Having shields is good, this makes things more interesting. If AI System A gets destroyed in the first wave, what's the point of us fighting? Notify the First Fleet to move forward and conduct a saturation attack."

At the command of the commander-in-chief, the two hundred warships of the First Fleet, which had been silent until now, simultaneously lit their engines, formed a formation, and quickly entered the battlefield.

Flagship Great Wall commander Chang Jiangyuan stood before the enormous holographic star map, his deep eyes reflecting the flashing red and green lights of his instruments. His finger swiped across the virtual screen, bringing up a real-time projection of the enemy fleet: seventy warships, shaped like multi-legged insects, their hulls shimmering with a ghostly blue energy, were charging in formation. The flagship at the head was particularly enormous, like a giant mantis lurking in the darkness, its main energy cannon at the bow charging, emitting a dangerous purple glow.

"All units, enter Level 1 combat readiness! Main guns charging, missile arrays preheating, force field shields up to maximum power!" Jiang Yuan's order was calm and clear, and it was transmitted throughout the entire First Fleet via the communication channel.

The "Great Wall" is the latest space battleship designed and built by China's military industry. It is 3,000 meters long, its hull covered in the latest nanocomposite armor, and its main gun, "Dawn," is a particle beam cannon capable of tearing through space, powerful enough to destroy an asteroid in a single shot. At this moment, it is like a colossal beast awakening, ready to face a life-or-death battle.

The two fleets flew towards each other, and the enemy fleet quickly came into firing range.

"Buzz—" The enemy flagship's main gun fired first, and a purple energy beam tore through the void, heading straight for the "Great Wall" with a world-destroying momentum.

"Evade! Turn 15 degrees to port!" Jiang Yuan roared. This was the first time humanity had engaged in combat with a Sirius warship. The power of the enemy warship's main guns was still unknown, and Jiang Yuan had no intention of using his warship's force field shields and armor to withstand the shells head-on.

The massive hull of the Great Wall struggled to turn under the immense thrust of its engines. An energy beam grazed the starboard side, sending sparks flying, and the shield's energy reading instantly dropped by 10%. The Great Wall dodged the attack, but a nearby escort ship, its evasive maneuver a fraction too slow, took the full brunt of the attack. The pale blue energy field flashed violently before shattering, the remaining energy beam striking the hull and blasting a large hole in the port side, crackling and sparking.

"Damn, the enemy flagship's main gun is really powerful; it shattered the force field shield of our Yangwei!"

"Yangwei, please report on the extent of your damage."

"Commander, our ship has been hit by the enemy ship's main guns. It has sustained second-degree damage on the port side, with two guns destroyed and some wiring damaged. Fortunately, the fusion reactor and anti-gravity engine were not affected. I have dispatched a repair robot to the port side for repairs. At present, the problem is not serious and will not affect our ship's maneuverability and combat effectiveness."

"Captain, the enemy flagship has entered our firing range." "Then what are we waiting for? Counterattack! Main guns, Dawnbreaker, target the enemy flagship, unleash full firepower!"

"Boom!" A dazzling golden beam of particles shot out from the bow of the "Great Wall" warship, moving at a speed almost impossible to detect with the naked eye. The golden beam accurately struck the enemy flagship's energy shield, creating a huge energy ripple that dimmed the shield's light considerably.

The two fleets officially clashed.

The other warships in the human fleet—destroyers, frigates, and cruisers—also opened fire. Countless missiles, trailing long plumes of flame, swarmed towards the enemy ships like an angry bee colony. The red beams of laser cannons, the golden glow of particle beams, and the blue flames of plasma cannons intertwined in the darkness of space, forming a web of death.

The enemy warships retaliated just as fiercely. Their weapons appeared to be some kind of energy pulse capable of disrupting the electronic systems of the human warships. Several escort ships had their shields breached under the continuous barrage, their hulls instantly torn apart, turning into dazzling fireballs that dissipated into the cold void of space. Fortunately, the human warships were all unmanned, relying entirely on human soldiers in the rear who remotely landed on intelligent robots to operate them. Now that their warships were destroyed, the loss was only of one vessel; no human soldiers had been killed.

"Port No. 3 turret damaged! Requesting support!" came the damage control officer's voice.

"Send the maintenance robots over! At the same time, activate the backup power source to maintain the shield!" Jiang Yuan responded calmly. As humanity's ace warship, second only to the Star Destroyer, the "Great Wall" is equipped with a rather luxurious configuration, featuring three nuclear fusion reactors—one main and two auxiliary—and its energy reserves are quite abundant.

Jiang Yuan's gaze was fixed on the enemy flagship. Although the massive warship's shields were damaged, it was still continuously firing powerful energy beams. It had to be dealt with first!
"All warships, concentrate fire on the enemy flagship with your main guns!" Jiang Yuan ordered.

The First Fleet's more than two hundred warships opened fire simultaneously, hundreds of golden beams of light piercing the enemy flagship like sharp swords. This time, the enemy flagship's shields finally gave way and shattered. Immediately afterward, dozens of high-explosive missiles accurately struck its hull, triggering a series of violent explosions. The enemy flagship began to disintegrate, sending huge fragments flying in all directions.

"Enemy flagship destroyed!" the tactician reported excitedly.

However, the battle was far from over. The enemy fleet, having lost its flagship, did not crumble; instead, it became even more frenzied. Like a swarm of bees, they charged recklessly towards the human fleet, launching numerous space fighters in an attempt to exploit their agility for suicide attacks.

"Prepare for close-quarters combat! Activate the close-in weapon system! Deploy our space fighters," Jiang Yuan ordered.

Several dark tunnels opened on both sides of the "Great Wall" warship, from which triangular-shaped space fighters surged forth, densely packed like a black cloud, to meet the enemy's space fighters. (End of Chapter)
