Ambush

"The captain is in place. This ship is a mass-produced scout-class destroyer. The performance parameters are as follows: main gun LV1, armor LV1, engine LV1, survey radar LV1, hull structure LV1. The overall combat power is evaluated as destroyer LV1, and the remaining Strengthening points: 1090.

Players current combat power ranking is lower than 99.9%, please continue to work hard, captain."

Familiar appearance, familiar interior.

The Scout-class destroyer is a newbie warship in the game "Star Ocean Journey" and is given for free at the beginning.

Its prototype refers to the initial form of the Fire Battleship.

Of course, there must be differences.

First of all, there are no battlefield killers like Mie particles, and secondly, the initial warships do not provide energy shield modules.

To ensure the smoothness and gameplay of the game.

A game is a game after all.

Wang Dong's original intention of playing this game was to become familiar with the control and combat of battleships.

Because other than that, he couldn't find any other better way to understand the space battleship.

I haven't played this game for a long time.

Before rebirth, I was busy being hunted. Besides, who would play this virtual game when there is a real fire warship?

Wang Dong clicked on the game with a bit of nostalgia.

"Enter one-to-one random matching mode."

"Waiting in queue... 3, 2, 1, matching completed.

I wish the captain good luck."

Time: Stardate 10103, June 14

Terrain: Asteroid belt, radius 1 Light minutes (Note: Light minutes means the distance traveled by light in one minute, 1 light minute is about 18 million kilometers)

Participating ships: mass-produced Scout-class destroyer LV1 (ID: Hanfeng), mass-produced reconnaissance Destroyer LV4 (ID: Novice Light Abuse)

Victory conditions: One party is sunk or surrenders.

Battle duration: 1 hour

. The battle begins.

As prompts flowed across the virtual screen in front of him, Wang Dong's battleship appeared in an asteroid belt at the next moment.

"Asteroid belt, what an interesting coincidence..."

Wang Dong pondered for two seconds and gave the order: "Turn on the passive mode of the survey radar, use the engine to exert slight power, and adjust the position of the ship to center on the ship orientation (X01, Y02, Z01)."

The spatial coordinates are a three-dimensional system. The initial center point is defined to establish a complete coordinate system. The subsequent spatial positions can be positioned as the initial center point to facilitate operations such as distance measurement and artillery aiming.

Among them, X is the horizontal axis, Y is the vertical axis, and Z is the horizontal axis.

In the asteroid belt, the exploration function of the survey radar will be affected to a certain extent. Without the energy response of the main gun or the full-output engine, the LV1 survey radar alone will not be able to distinguish warships from asteroids.

Therefore, Wang Dong chose to use the passive mode of the survey radar. He did not actively detect the opponent, but passively accepted the possible exploration waves, and then calculated the opponent's position without exposing himself.

At the same time, in order to prevent an attack from being discovered by the opponent first, the battleship was chosen to move to a nearby asteroid of moderate size as a cover.

Only five minutes later, the survey radar in passive listening mode received the opponent's detection wave.

"Detection wave received, intensity 0.9, source coordinates (X13, Y20, Z11)."

This is a "real" novice, with no concept of covert maneuvers, and he rushed up in a daze.

"The engine is in second gear, use the asteroid as a node, get close to the enemy ship, and maintain the passive mode of the survey radar." "

Follow your orders, Your Excellency, Captain.

The ship's engine is in second gear, and the path map is modeled.

Start approaching the enemy ship and expect to receive Enemy time: eight minutes and twenty-three seconds."

The active detection wave of "Novice Light Abuse" never stops, and based on its position changes, the opponent's traveling speed can be judged.

Even though Wang Dong only turned on the penultimate gear of the engine's five power levels, the speed of the two parties' approach was not slow.

Just five minutes later.

"The enemy ship's position (X10, Y10, Z05), the distance is 0.3 light minutes."

After entering the main gun range, the ship's optical brain automatically prompted.

Wang Dong observed the surrounding environment. There were many asteroids nearby that could hide his tracks, but if he got any closer, the "newbie's lightly abused" sky survey radar would likely detect the engine's energy response, thus exposing his tracks.

"Stop the engine output and remain silent."

After thinking for a while, Wang Dong issued a new order, and the "Novice Light Abuse" warship continued to approach at high speed.

Wang Dong's current position was on the flank of the "Novice Light Abuse"'s direction of travel. The main gun of the LV1 destroyer is a kinetic energy projectile type. Although the effective range is long, its projectile speed is limited.

In order to ensure the hit rate, of course, the closer the distance, the better, especially in this situation where an ambush effect may be formed.

"Enemy ship's position (X10, Y03, Z00), distance 0.12 light minutes."

Two minutes later, the opportunity came.

At this time, the navigation trajectory of the "Novice Light Abuse" battleship was at an angle of nearly 90 degrees with the front plane of Wang Dong's battleship, and the distance had been shortened to the limit of reaction speed.

"Charge the main gun to the maximum and fire automatically after locking on the enemy ship!"

"Charging countdown 10...9...8...7... Warning, the charging reaction has been detected by the enemy ship."

It is impossible for the main gun charging reaction at such a close range not to be detected, but it doesn't matter, the distance is too close to evade it!

"Keep charging!"

Wang Dong shouted.

"3...2...1, main gun fire!"
