Constructing-Style Wizard
Chapter 432 422Forced boarding
Each type of artificial angel possesses extraordinary self-healing abilities.
Within three seconds of their heads leaving their trunks, the scarlet liquid flowing from the cross section changed.
These liquids originally obeyed inertia and flew outward along the impact force caused by the explosion.
But now, the scarlet liquid became thicker and brighter in color, uncharacteristically rolling back towards the smooth wound.
The artificial angel's head was dragged closer to the cross section of the neck by its blood.
Countless slender strips of flesh protruded from the cut surfaces of the neck and head, intertwined together like impatient lovers.
It won't take long for the large scar on the neck to disappear as the meat strips squirm.
At that time, the artificial angel's head will be tightly integrated with the torso, leaving only a shocking ring of scars on the neck.
This super self-healing ability comes from the passive skill "Exemption from Death" that must be carried by adult artificial angels.
Only adult artificial angels will have this passive skill, minor angels do not.
Because of this, craniotomy on an artificial angel must wait until the artificial angel reaches adulthood.
During the days when Li Nuo was wandering around the artificial angel breeding planet, he had already figured out the secret.
After the artificial angel reaches adulthood, every year that passes, the number of triggers of the "Death-Free Pardon" will be increased by 1.
The artificial angels protecting the transport fleet in front of them are about 28 years old and have been adults for 8 years. Each of them has 8 chances to avoid death.
Deducting the craniotomy surgery artificial angels undergo when they reach adulthood, they still have 7 chances to avoid death.
At this moment, it is basically impossible to kill them 7 times in a short period of time.
Oh, and don't even think about killing them during their resurrection phase.
The strips of flesh protruding from the wound were healing, that was true.
But this kind of artificial angel in the resurrection stage is not a living thing, but a dead thing.
Cutting him into pieces at this time will not trigger the next "death-free pardon".
You have to wait until it recovers and regains its mobility before you can kill it again and trigger a new "death-free pardon".
Li Nuo learned about this strange killing rule not from practice, but from what he saw in the experimental records of the Angel Enterprise Consortium.
The Angel Enterprise Consortium has conducted extensive practical research on artificial angels.
A large number of incredible artificial angel properties have been unearthed.
In addition to the "death-free pardon", there are many imaginative features.
For example, artificial angels are viviparous creatures whose reproduction process is similar to that of humans.
This sounds quite normal.
But don’t forget that adult artificial angels will have their brain tissue removed and put into the pilot’s cockpit…
If there are no pilots to fly artificial angels, how can adult artificial angels reproduce?
What is even more ridiculous is that while the pilot was flying the artificial angel, his nervous system was connected to the neural signals of the artificial angel.
...That kind of nerve impulse is far more intense than when humans perform indescribable events. On the one hand, it will bring the pilot an experience far beyond normal conditions. On the other hand, it has become one of the biggest culprits in the sudden death of pilots.
There's nothing I can do about it, it's too exciting, even a neural connection pilot can't stand it.
Another situation that would cause a pilot to die suddenly due to too strong nerve signal impulses from the artificial angel is the death of the artificial angel.
The more sudden and intense the death of the artificial angel is, the greater the possibility that the pilot flying the artificial angel will die suddenly.
Although the 20 artificial angels entered the resurrection state at this time and would recover soon, the 20 groups of pilots who piloted them suffered heavy casualties.
Li Nuo used the "Fixed Pyroblast Technique" to create an explosion, and combined it with the "Energy Shaping Technique" to forcibly shape the explosion impact into a "blade", and then used the "blade" to cut the artificial angel's neck.
This series of operations was completed in a very short period of time, and even the pilot in the neural connection state could not react.
All pilots flying artificial angels will experience the pain of being decapitated because they cannot cut through the nerve connection with the artificial angels.
However, the pain won't last long.
The coldness and weakness transmitted from the artificial angel will soon overwhelm the pain of beheading.
The "death" nerve pulse signal emitted by the artificial angel will destroy the pilot's will in an instant, tear open the pilot's brain, and then with a bang, the pilot's head will explode.
Li Nuo learned through passive deconstruction that the operation he just performed killed 20 artificial angels and 9 pilots.
The artificial angel missing from the pilot cannot participate in the battle even if it is resurrected, and can only wait to be recovered.
The artificial angel with a sound pilot will regain mobility in about 3 minutes.
Therefore, the golden time left for players is only 3 minutes.
Li Nuo raised his hand, spread his fingers and made a fist hard.
"Buzz buzz-"
A series of electrophoretic roars came from all over the heavy transport ship.
The armed personnel on the ship were horrified to find that the shield protecting the ship had mysteriously disappeared.
"Oops! The energy pipeline is damaged!" someone shouted.
An alarm sounded in the corridor:
"Beep——"
"Energy diagnostic system activated."
"Beep——"
"The diagnosis is complete, the main energy pipeline is cut off, and the emergency energy pipeline is being activated."
The heavy transport ship has 20 shipboard shield generators.
With so many shield generators, it's difficult to activate them all at the same time.
According to the emergency plan formulated by the ship engineer, the ship's shield will be restored starting from important ship parts.
The first thing to be connected to the emergency energy pipeline is the ship's power room, then the ammunition room, bridge and other parts of the ship, and finally it is the less important cargo hold passage.
Including the heavy transport ship Li Nuo was on, the entire transport fleet had the same emergency plan.
The cargo hold passage has become the key for players to board the ship.
Li Nuo picked the right moment and was about to send a task to the players to remind them to board the ship, but he saw that the players who had been staring blankly at the artificial angels had already taken action.
As if they had received an order from someone, they rushed towards the ship that had lost its shield protection. They did not need Li Nuo's reminder at all.
"Oh? That's right. The commander responsible for commanding the players was really good at not being surprised by the sudden death of the artificial angel."
Li Nuo nodded slightly, and his evaluation of the player commander improved a bit.
He simply gave up on issuing the mission, and instead held his right hand again, activating the magic bombs arranged in the cargo hold passages of each ship.
These bombs, protected by the "veil of isolation", were placed in the gaps between the outer armor plates of the cargo hold by Li Nuo.
Once detonated, rich and violent magical energy burst out, directed against the weak points of the external armor plate under the guidance of Li Nuo.
"Boom——"
A heavy muffled sound came from the lower deck of the heavy transport ship, causing the hull to vibrate slightly.
The piercing alarm sounded again.
"Beep——"
"Beep——"
"Warning, warning."
"The air pressure in the cargo hold channel is unbalanced, the external armor plate and hull structure are damaged, and the artificial gravity field fails partially."
"The ship-based repair robot is conducting an emergency request."
The technology tree of the angel enterprise consortium is all focused on biotechnology integrated with artificial angels.
The Bureau can use nanorobots to repair ships, while the Angel Enterprise Complex can only use so-called ship-based repair robots.
There is a huge difference in efficiency between repair robots and nano-robots. The former is about the same size as a human being, and it takes at least 10 minutes to repair the hole that Li Nuo blasted.
The shield is gone and the damaged hull has not been repaired. If the players cannot forcefully enter the ship, it will be somewhat unjustifiable.
Fortunately, the players did not disappoint Li Nuo.
More than 50 players screamed and rushed towards the hole in the heavy transport ship. They rushed in swarm despite the hail of bullets from the armed crew.
Thanks to the limited shooting angle of the ship-based turret, the gun barrel cannot be pointed at the hull, otherwise these players will definitely have close contact with the shells.
But even without the involvement of ship-based turrets, players still suffered casualties.
They all approached the ship in flesh and blood, and were inevitably hit by the organic life-killing guns.
With a muffled bang, their bodies exploded inside the power armor, turning into dense drops of blood and minced flesh, covering the entire interior of the armor.
Li Nuo did not remind players to use transformation spells.
He wanted to see how well the players were able to adapt to situations and select players who truly had the talent for magical combat.
Sure enough, there were a few players who were extremely alert and almost immediately recognized that the firearms in the enemy's hands were specifically aimed at flesh and blood.
They hurriedly selected the transformation spell in the spell list, clicked to activate, and turned themselves into strange life forms such as gas man, stone man, iron man, etc.
In this way, even if the armed crew thrust the barrel of a gun into their mouths, they would not be harmed at all.
Although the remaining players did not react so quickly, their basic qualities as elite players were still there.
After seeing that some players were immune to enemy fire, they immediately realized that changing their own form could effectively withstand attacks.
While activating the transformation spell, some people also conveyed their findings to the commander.
After a while, the player commander issued an order for everyone to transform into other forms.
During the exchange of fire that lasted less than half a minute, the armed crew members were surprised to find that the enemies had all changed, and the firearms in their hands were as useless as fire sticks.
"What's going on with these guys?"
"How did they become monsters?"
"Shoot, shoot, switch weapon modes and keep shooting!"
"It's useless! It's useless to switch to laser mode! Their power armor is coated! We have to use kinetic weapons!"
Chirping and shouting came and went.
The armed crew had to give up their firearms and instead drew their serrated swords to face the enemy.
Serrated Sword...what an ancient melee weapon.
Although the saw teeth will rotate at high speed under the traction of the engine and chain, after all, this is just a melee weapon.
There is no way, who told the guns of this group of armed crews to only fire organic life-killing beams and ordinary laser rays, but not bullets.
Only the serrated sword he carries with him has the slightest chance of cutting through the enemy's power armor.
But the players didn't give the armed crew a chance at all.
After discovering that the opponent was planning to take close-quarters measures, the first player to board the ship immediately raised his gun and fired.
"Bang bang bang bang -"
There were intensive gunshots, and explosive bullets flew out, hitting the armor of the armed crew members and shooting out large sparks.
For a time, countless fragments split from explosive bullets were scattered in the cargo corridor.
Although the armed crew also had power armor to protect themselves, they were still inevitably staggered slightly by the impact of the bullets, and their steps were halted.
Just like this pause, another group of players successfully boarded the ship by force and joined the queue of inclined firepower.
Several players fired their guns and laughed cheerfully:
"Hahaha~ Are these crew members stupid? In what age are they still using melee weapons to engage in boarding battles?"
"Yeah, if you don't use the gun, use a serrated sword. No serious person would use that thing."
A young player bent down and picked up the laser gun on the ground.
After a while of tinkering, the little player burst into laughter:
"Oh, I said why don't they grab it? You see, this feather gun can only fire organic life-killing rays and A-type laser beams, and it can't break our defense at all."
"Hahaha~"
"Fortunately, we did our homework before setting off. We removed the armor module on the power armor and added a coating that reflects the laser."
"These NPCs are so miserable. They suffer the consequences of being uneducated."
There was a lot of laughter in the cargo bay passage, and the players were enjoying themselves, quickly expanding their advantages and seizing more territory.
But, it won’t be long before players stop laughing.
In Li Nuo's senses, several teams of armed crewmen came from other parts of the ship, carrying many electromagnetic guns.
Space-age electromagnetic guns use electromagnetism as power to fire alloy bullets, which is similar to the era of ground warfare.
But space-age electromagnetic guns are a bit more advanced.
Its bullets can be made with different bullet cores, and then the impact force can be used to excite the bullet cores, creating magnetic storms or flames.
Players' power armor has a laser reflective coating that can indeed resist some laser attacks.
However, when faced with magnetic field interference and electromagnetic interference, their power armor may be paralyzed due to poor shielding capabilities.
Likewise, Li Nuo didn't intend to help.
Among the spell lists he provides players, there are spells to deal with electromagnetic guns. It all depends on whether the players can respond flexibly.
The only things that Li Nuo can really help are ship shields, external armor plates, and artificial angels, which players absolutely cannot deal with.
Li Nuo turned his gaze and looked at the artificial angel outside the ship.
20 artificial angels recovered as before, 9 of them were paralyzed due to the lack of pilots.
The remaining 11 artificial angels did not approach the ship to deal with the players in the cabin. Instead, they dragged long tail flames and flew towards the player fleet in the distance.
This is a smart move.
Space-age weapons are not yet capable of "zero friendly damage."
Although artificial angels can easily eliminate players concentrated in the ship, they can also deal a fatal blow to their own ships.
Rather than dealing with players boarding ships, artificial angels are better off dealing with distant player fleets.
Li Nuo was thinking about whether to help the player's fleet contain a few artificial angels. Suddenly, an obscure and dark aura came from the laboratory of the heavy transport ship. (End of chapter)
