Chapter 63 Find a way to give it a shot

   The beam struck across, piercing the armor of the friendly battleship.

  Xiao Liu knew that it was a sacrifice made by the friendly side to cover his firing of the main gun.

   Such a thought flashed through, and the movement of the hand did not stop at all, and decisively turned on the beam cannon that had fully charged.

   There is no need to aim at all, because there are enemy ships that are exactly the same model as your own warships in all directions!

  The huge high-energy beam immediately pierced through the enemy ship that had just shot down his teammate, and the next second, the battleship that Xiao Liu himself was driving was also pierced by the beam and turned into a sparkling spark in space.

  The field of vision was pitch black, and the system popped up that his training time had reached the time limit, and the virtual reality was about to withdraw him from the simulation.

  When Xiao Liu opened his eyes, took off his helmet and sat up from the virtual cabin, his teammates also woke up from the virtual reality system.

  A young man with bright eyes on the right asked, "Did it just sink?"

   Staring at the helmet in his hand, Xiao Liu nodded silently.

  The young man asked again: "How many ships were shot down?"

  Xiao Liu then answered: "12 ships."

   Sitting on the other side of him, the young man with a cropped head stared and couldn't help admiring.

   "Amazing! I fired a beam cannon after loading it in and then hung up!"

And there are people who are worse than them and can't help complaining: "Damn! This thing is not training at all, okay? Although we are all pilots, we should train all kinds of aircraft. How can it become a space battleship?" Already??"

   "But as a virtual reality game, it's quite fun, it's too realistic, and it continues as if we are really engaged in a space war."

  Xiao Liu listened to a group of people's unfinished discussion.

  Hmm. My teammates are all pilots, and I’m the only research dog. Did I make a mistake?

   "I don't know if you have heard of it?"

   "It is said that our base may be directly connected to alien civilizations. In the future, we will not really enter space battles of this intensity with space battleships, will we?"

   In an unknown corner, someone suddenly made such a gossip.

   "Heh! So what about beating aliens? Aliens can't torture us so badly!"

   This sentence speaks to everyone's heart. Which one of you is not a flying elite in the theater, and has been selected through layers of selection to get here?

   "If the opponent is an alien, I think we can still be proud,"

   Someone tried to comfort him: "At least the whole world, probably only a few of us, have fought against aliens in a serious way."

   Who knew this sentence aroused everyone's blood even more.

   "It's not serious, is it? It's just a simulation training program, and it's been tortured by blood."

   "It's hard to say what the reality will be in the future. We can't let them abuse us in training, right? We have to find a way to **** them!"

   "If you can't bully real aliens, can you still be bullied by training programs?"

  This sentence resonated in everyone's heart.

  How about the real space war, it's really hard to say.

   But you can’t still be beaten during training, right?

   Fight back! Fight back!

  For a while, everyone was too lazy to continue to rest, discussing the so-called tactics in a hurry.

   "Everyone knows that the battleships we fight are all consumables, and the main battleships of the opponent are those spherical spaceships!"

"exactly!"

   "No matter how many ordinary warships we destroy, their constituent materials will be recovered by the spherical spaceship, and new ordinary warships will appear from the spherical spaceship soon."

   "The spherical spaceship should be the mother ship. Our primary goal should be to deal with it, instead of always struggling in the pile of ordinary battleships!"

   "The opponent doesn't care about ordinary warships at all, even if it is to destroy us, even if it affects allies!"

  While listening to his teammates analyzing the battle situation, Xiao Liu found a button-sized battery from the virtual helmet. The electric energy inside was tens of thousands of times that of a normal lithium-ion battery!

  And this is not a battery in the conventional sense of humans, more precisely, it is a new and mature high-energy electromagnetic device. It is such a button-sized thing, which involves all technologies such as new material technology, nanotechnology, super electromagnetic technology and so on.

  It’s just such a small button battery, and it’s an epoch-making product made by any country if it’s placed outside Base Zero!

  In order to prevent electrical interference when inputting neural signals, the virtual helmet will distort the virtual reality even if it is a little bit, so it simply uses super battery technology to turn the virtual helmet into a built-in power supply.

  Although Xiao Liu has now changed his job to become a spaceship pilot, he was originally a researcher, and he knows how much life will be brought about by the popularization of various technologies in Base Zero once it is spread to the whole of China and all human beings!

  He is proud to be a part of this!

   And in front of them, the teammates unanimously quickly agreed - they must find a way to slam the spherical structure!

  Adhering to this simple concept, they took the initiative to apply for additional training with their superiors on this day.

  At this time, the space battlefield is already different from the initial stay in one place, and then being wiped out by concentrated fire. The warships controlled by them often appear surrounded by many warships.

  After three months of training, they have already been able to control the spaceship proficiently. After loading in the past, facing endless siege, they will form small teams to fight flexibly. This is the tactic that can survive the longest after practice.

   But this time a completely different tactic was adopted. More than 300 of their warships actually spiraled together to form an ellipsoid, protecting one warship in the middle, and then approached the nearest spherical spaceship.

  This method is to sacrifice most of the spacecraft, just to protect the only killer in the middle.

   And the person who is in charge of this important task is Xiao Liu, who has the best grade so far. The organization has decided that it is up to you to fight this shot!

   At this time, the increasingly thinner queue has come to a distance of 0.5 light seconds from the spherical spacecraft.

  Sacrificing most of the spaceship driven by his teammates, Xiao Liu, who was firmly protected in the middle, put all the energy of the shield into the beam cannon, and the beam cannon with overloaded energy flashed a rainbow light!

   It's done!

   It's done!

  Although the spherical spaceship had been prepared for a long time, it still underestimated the power of the blow. The shield blocked most of the light beams, but was penetrated a little, plowing a scorched black ravine on the surface of the spherical spaceship.

   Despite yet another total defeat, cheers erupted throughout the training room. This time, it wasn't for annihilating the enemy, but for shooting him!

   Anyway, it's just a training session!

   You can’t hold back your breath any longer, it’s just for a shot, no matter whether your simulated object is an alien or something else, this shot is just to show the sword!

  Amidst the cheers, Xiao Liu was thrown up again and again.

   And when they thought that they had only achieved phased training results, a corner of a spherical spaceship not far from the Silver Star was shattered, hundreds of billions of light years away from the Blue Star.
