Cataclysmic Era: I can unlock the tech tree

Current distance: 60000 kilometers

[Flight trajectory calculation complete! Ballistics calculation complete!]

Zhao Zijie stared intently at the holographic projection in front of him, breathing heavily into the pale yellow deep-sea liquid inside the deep-sea cabin.

"Let them taste the electromagnetic railgun first!"

As he thought about it, he issued commands through the brainwave reading device.

"First Fleet, fire!"

The next moment, under Zhao Zijie's command, all 60 starships of the First Fleet spewed out countless tongues of fire!

The distance between the enemy ships and our own ships is still decreasing.

Perhaps due to a lack of experience, or perhaps due to an abundance of confidence in their starships, the Proxima Centauri fleet's mode of movement was extremely monotonous—their route was a straight line!

But with the First Fleet opening fire first, the Proxima Centauri Fleet suddenly changed its previously arrogant way of moving.

On the star map, those 120 red dots scattered in all directions like startled flies!

Upon seeing this, Zhao Zijie's expression darkened slightly.

Although it's unclear why the enemy chose such a chaotic flight path, there's no doubt that this unpredictable flight path is extremely effective against their electromagnetic cannon attacks.

It takes about 10 seconds for an electromagnetic railgun projectile to hit an enemy ship.

A 10-second attack delay, coupled with the opponent's incredibly chaotic evasion methods...

The firepower of a mere 60 Golden Crow battleships is simply insufficient!

"Tsk..."

Zhao Zijie's lips twitched, and he clicked his tongue softly.

A mouthful of deep-sea liquid smoothly entered his mouth.

"Pah!" He spat out the deep-sea liquid in his mouth with some impatience.

It has to be said that this thing does affect a person's performance, especially during the commanding process.

Almost every starship pilot has experienced the sensation of accidentally swallowing a mouthful of deep-sea liquid.

This feeling... is incredibly refreshing.

Seeing the enemy ships still scattering like headless flies, Zhao Zijie withdrew his thoughts of complaining.

"Second, Third, and Fourth Fleets, I need fire support!"

Using an EEG reading device, he sent a distress signal to his companions.

With almost no delay, the remaining 180 Golden Crow battleships opened fire simultaneously!

An endless stream of electromagnetic cannon projectiles formed an extremely dense metallic storm that swept towards the enemy ship in the distance!

Suddenly, a highlighted text appeared above the holographic projection.

Accessibility features are now unlocked.

Zhao Zijie was suddenly stunned.

But he soon realized that this was an order from Professor Lü.

In order to improve the capabilities of every driver, Lü Yongchang directly ordered the prohibition of a series of auxiliary functions of Zero.

However, to Zhao Zijie's surprise, it was only at this moment that Professor Lü ordered the unlocking of Zero's auxiliary functions.

What surprised him even more was that the ballistic prediction functions he had previously used were not actually part of the auxiliary functions!

Before he could even react, the scene in the holographic projection left him stunned once again!

WTF? !

He suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared excitedly at the holographic image in front of him!

……

[Earth], Quantum Supercomputing Center.

The moment the accessibility features were unlocked, the CPU usage of Zero spiked instantly!

A thick white mist rose from the heat dissipation area immersed in liquid nitrogen!

The vaporized liquid nitrogen quickly carried away the enormous heat from the supercomputing center. Then, under the action of the compressor, the vaporized liquid nitrogen became liquid again and returned to the cooling pool!

With the support of powerful computing capabilities, Zero quickly calculated the possible route of the enemy ship.

Subsequently, under Zero's control, each electromagnetic cannon began to move in a very small, trembling motion!

Each projectile was positioned with extreme precision, perfectly blocking the course of 120 enemy ships!

Zhao Zijie saw this scene through holographic projection.

"Holy crap! This is so awesome!"

Like Zhao Zijie, almost every starship pilot was intimidated by Zero's powerful abilities!

The five-minute-long metal storm directly consumed 50% of the [Golden Crow] battleship's ammunition reserves!

The cost of those five minutes far exceeded the cost of the past month of guerrilla warfare!

……

Proxima Centauri Fleet.

As the invading fleet drew ever closer, Levi's eyes gleamed with excitement.

His heart was pounding, pumping blue blood into every vein in his body!

From their flight speeds, Levi could tell the difference in technological level between the two sides.

The enemy starships are far inferior in performance to ours!

At this moment, he had already figured out how he would ravage those despicable invaders!

But the next moment, an alarm completely disrupted his plans.

His expression changed instantly when he saw the familiar active detection data.

Another electromagnetic railgun!

Damn it, how much ammunition do those invaders have?!

Just as he was preparing to organize everyone to defend and intercept, he suddenly discovered a problem.

Lacking experience, the fleet was thrown into chaos when faced with the sudden electromagnetic gun attack.

Hundreds of starships darted around like headless flies.

"Calm down! Calm down!!" Levi shouted hoarsely into the communication device, trying to calm his teammates down.

A few seconds later, projectiles, each a meter in diameter, streaked past the perimeter of his spaceship at incredible speeds.

Amidst the chaos, Levi disregarded everyone else and immediately activated the defense interception program.

With the help of active detection equipment and pre-programmed programs on the onboard computer, he successfully deflected several incoming projectiles.

It was only then that he came to his senses and turned to look at his teammates.

It has to be said, fools sometimes have good luck.

Its erratic and unpredictable flight path was precisely what countered the electromagnetic cannon attack from the other side.

At least, they did not suffer any damage in this round of attacks.

Before he could even catch his breath, the piercing alarm sounded again!

The alarm was sharper and more urgent than before!

Levi stared wide-eyed at the screen displaying a dense array of electromagnetic cannon projectiles, shouting hoarsely for his teammates.

Fortunately, Livay's shouts had an effect.

After enduring a round of attacks, the Proxima Centauri fleet gradually regained its composure.

Under Livay's command, they tried to return to their proper positions following the training procedures.

But it was too late.

Metal storm under zero control: density and precision greatly increased!

Explosions and flashes of light continued to rise from the Proxima Centauri fleet!

One, two... ten, twenty!

In just one minute, a total of twenty spaceships were blasted into a sky full of space debris by electromagnetic cannon projectiles carrying miniature nuclear bombs!

But the metal storm is not over yet!

Warning white lights flashed all over the spaceship.

Looking around, the sky and the earth were filled with electromagnetic cannon projectiles that would kill anyone who touched them!

The flashes of explosions reflected the despair on Levi's face!

He gave up when the number of crashed ships reached 50.

He grabbed the communication device beside him and, in a hoarse voice, shouted:

"retreat!"

"retreat!!"
