Chapter 885 - Chain Reaction
Mist and fog are different.
The fog inside the abnormal area is an acidic aerosol containing water, with a pH value fluctuating between 4 and 5, which is typical acid fog.
The thick fog covering the entire abnormal area is not water vapor and various suspended particles in the physical sense, but a special energy field composed of densely packed energy pathways interwoven together. If you cut off any small piece of it, you can see the characteristics of the "Lichtenberg Totem" (lightning pattern), which is completely different from what you see with the naked eye.
Adam: Unidentified flying creatures spotted, numbered 'Lin 00001', 17 in number.
A number of reconnaissance drones have built a three-dimensional monitoring network. With the help of physically connected communication carriers, data exchange inside and outside the abnormal area is realized. The interior of the giant flying ship's bridge simultaneously projects a part of the ground and sky in the abnormal area in a three-dimensional holographic projection manner.
A dozen small dots flashing red light flapped their fleshy wings from a group of stone pillars of varying heights and thicknesses, took off into the air, and flew towards the group of drones in the sky.
The starting point of the flight trajectory was marked in real time, confirming that these unidentified flying creatures, temporarily named "Lin 00001", came from one of the stone pillars with a diameter of more than 30 meters and a height of about 100 meters.
Obviously, this stone pillar is the nest of these "giant manta rays". Judging from the appearance features scanned by the drone, the rugged rock surface looks a bit like scales, layered one on top of another.
Six combat drones following the four reconnaissance drones simultaneously released short-range combat missiles.
With multi-mode joint guidance, flying creatures whose flying speed does not exceed 400 kilometers per hour have nowhere to escape.
Boom boom boom! ~
Fireballs exploded in the sky, and 17 "manta rays" were blown to pieces, with none of them surviving.
But in the next second.
Countless "giant manta rays" suddenly flew out from the towering stone pillars, so densely packed that they almost filled the space inside the stone pillars.
Adam: Unidentified flying creatures spotted, numbered 'Lin 00001', 568 in number.
Adam: Unidentified flying creatures spotted, numbered 'Lin 00001', 7996 in number.
The artificial intelligence AI "Adam" that continuously pops up prompt subtitles simply created an independent digital interface to update the ever-increasing "giant manta ray" statistics in real time.
The number of UFOs numbered 'Lin 00001' quickly exceeded ten thousand. The number ten thousand is really a critical point. Once anything reaches ten thousand, it will be overwhelming and numerous.
"Oh my god! What the hell is this!"
A large area of red dots suddenly appeared in the three-dimensional holographic projection screen, which scared Sanhao Xuesen.
Is this stirring up a hornet's nest or something?
“There’s something wrong with these rocks!”
Heseman Brown, an S-class space-powered psychic, stretched out his hand, selected a stone pillar, made an eight-character gesture with both hands, and pointed it diagonally. The three-dimensional stone pillar was immediately partially enlarged.
Those "big manta rays" crawled out from the roots of the scaly rocks that were pointing towards the sky, and then flapped their fleshy wings and soared into the air.
"Ton-class thermobaric bombs, 10 in number, set the detonation point! Fire!"
Chen Fei fired consecutive shots above the stone pillar and set the impact point. All ten ton-class thermobaric bombs chose the air-blast mode.
At the same time, the group of drones that entered the abnormal area had moved away from the impact point and far away from the "giant manta rays" flying all over the sky.
The giant flying ship's railgun fired continuously, delivering ton-class thermobaric bombs to the designated location, exploding black and white fog balls. After a few seconds, a flash of fire appeared inside the fog balls, and a fierce bright light suddenly bloomed. The flames and shock waves swept in all directions, engulfing countless "giant manta rays".
The huge shock wave, comparable to that of a small tactical nuclear weapon, overturned most of the "Manta Ray". Ten ton-class thermobaric bombs detonated adjacent to each other cleared a large area in the sky visible to the naked eye. Almost no one was spared within the killing radius, and the effect was immediate.
However, the huge noise caused by the cloud burst in the air seemed to have triggered a chain reaction. The entire abnormal area instantly exploded. Instead of being cleared out by the "giant manta rays", the number of "giant manta rays" increased explosively at a geometric rate. The number counted by the drone directly exceeded one million.
The swarm of drones that had penetrated deep into the abnormal area avoided the destructive radius of the ton-level thermobaric bomb at the first possible moment and climbed upwards to avoid being hit by the crazy flying creatures.
Even if they didn't avoid it, it would be useless. The ammunition carried by the combat drones is simply a drop in the bucket in front of such a large number of flying creatures, and not even a small wave will be created.
"It's over! The entire area must be blocked off."
Heseman Brown, who immediately realized something, was about to use his special ability to completely isolate the entire abnormal area from the mainland of Blue Star.
A large number of "giant manta rays" that were startled by the explosion and shock wave have rushed out of the edge of the abnormal area. From the outside, they broke through the fog and flew directly into the sky of the blue planet.
"Railgun swarm interception!"
At Chen Fei's command, railguns rose from the back of the giant flying ship, with the number exceeding 200, all locking onto their respective targets.
A high-performance computing center is installed inside the flying ship, which cooperates with the auxiliary computing of artificial intelligence AI "Adam" to reduce the pressure on Chen Fei's blood sugar consumption.
The "giant manta ray" that had just rushed out of the outer "fog area" of the abnormal area was hit by a fierce and precise sniper attack. It broke into pieces in mid-air, and then fell like raindrops, creating a strange rain of flesh and blood.
But an incredible and strange thing happened. The fish that had escaped the net and had not yet been locked by the railgun did not fly far. It lost its momentum without any warning, tumbling towards the ground, and smashed into the hills with dense ping-pong sounds, and was also covered in blood.
"Stop shooting!"
Chen Fei also noticed this.
The railgun group that was continuously delivering 30mm caliber shells came to an abrupt stop.
"what?"
Miyoshi Gakusen, who was about to ask why the interception was stopped, also noticed something unusual.
After the railgun group on the back of the giant flying ship ceased firing, the "big manta rays" that broke into the sky of Blue Star continued to fall, as if there was intercepting fire from somewhere else, sweeping them all down from the sky.
In fact, there is no other intercepting force. The army of the Persian sovereignty is gathering, and it will take some time before a large army can be sent to arrive and block the entire abnormal area.
"Isolation!"
The S-class psychic Heseman Brown shouted.
Outside the bridge, as far as the eye can see, there are no more "manta rays" emerging from the "fog", and the ones that flew out before also quickly and inexplicably fell down, and the sky of the blue planet became clear again.
The trouble came suddenly and disappeared without any reason.
"It's gone. Why are they all gone?"
Mr. Brown then discovered that the flying creatures that flew out from the abnormal area were actually falling down by themselves.
His face looked a little unsightly.
First, it's tiring. After all, using supernatural powers to isolate such a huge area, from the ground to the sky, is no small burden even for an S-level supernatural user.
Secondly, it seemed like I had done something unnecessary. Even if those flying creatures flew out, even if I didn't do anything, they would die cleanly on their own. I didn't know whether they fell to death or how they died.
"It's suffocating. The atmosphere is different."
Chen Fei thought about it and gave an answer.
“Yes, it’s true!”
Herseman Brown finally reacted, his mouth twitching.
The space-related supernatural skill "Isolation" was actually useless except for making himself exhausted.
Sanhao Xuesen said with lingering fear: "It was really scary, I almost messed it up!"
Millions of such flying creatures breaking into the sky of Blue Planet would be a huge trouble, not to mention the monsters that kept emerging from the "wormhole cloud" before. Moreover, the local sovereign army has not arrived yet. With the mobility of flying creatures, they will spread quickly and become a disaster.
"Those stone pillars are not simple. Let's find a chance to split one open and see."
The "Giant Manta Rays (No.: Lin 00001)" in the abnormal area were still flying frantically in groups. Many of them could not fly out and were just crashing around the edge.
Such brainless behavior is not an isolated case. It is obvious that they are not intelligent creatures.
This preliminary judgment will make many people breathe a sigh of relief.
No matter how ferocious a brainless creature is, it is vulnerable in the face of wisdom.
Ten drones flew a large circle and spent more than six hours thoroughly scanning the entire abnormal area.
When they returned through the window specially reserved by S-class psychic Herseman Brown, most of the dancing flying creatures had calmed down.
