Chapter 129 Incident
No one expected that the Abyss's counterattack against Nidhogg would begin in early November.
The large-scale invasion began quietly, and the destruction of Nidhogg's main garrison fleet in the seventh sector marked the return of the long-dormant abyss from the edge of the world to the main stage of the Cloud Ring Star Territory.
The sneak attack that occurred on November 3 was called the "113 Incident."
On this day, the Seventh Sector Guard Fleet had just completed its sector cruise mission, and a large number of main battleships returned to port for supplies. The Abyss fleet quietly attacked, just like the last sneak attack on the e101u space hub, the entire fleet adopted silent stealth mode.
The five interstellar battleships in the Abyss completed their acceleration before arriving, then shut down all engines and approached the Nidhogg space port like meteorites.
Although the small ships on the outer perimeter had discovered the movements of the abyss in time, because the main battleships were in the port to replace ammunition and fuel, the black alarm sounded for fifteen minutes, and the main battleships still failed to leave the port normally.
The swarm drones and a large number of carrier-based warships dispatched by the Abyss side's battle aircraft carriers caused a lot of trouble to Nidhogg's destroyers. Just when they were trying to find opportunities to release their EMP defenses, the Abyss's destroyer formation
, but charged forward desperately.
Even the Nidhogg cruiser, which is famous for its powerful firepower, had to dodge in embarrassment when faced with an almost suicidal attack in the abyss.
Torpedoes filled the sky, turning a third of the battlefield into a no-man's land.
On the one hand, Nidhogg's main battleship needed thirty minutes to make an emergency exit; on the other hand, Abyss's main battleship only took twenty minutes to complete a full restart of the battleship.
What follows is a devastating disaster.
The third-generation battleship of Abyss is equipped with six 950mm cannon batteries. The turret base suspended on one side makes the entire battleship look quite clumsy.
But that doesn’t stop you from having plenty of time.
As the party launching the surprise attack, the five "Nioh"-class battleships adjusted their posture leisurely, then locked their guns on the Nidhogg naval port, and fired ten rounds of salvos in succession.
This is an absolute saturation hit.
Nidhogg's battleships were like juicy steamed buns, being bombarded to pieces by ferocious firepower in a fragile semi-defensive state.
The third-generation battleships "Denier", "Banna" and "Ironthorn" were completely destroyed. The first ship "Ilga" was seriously injured and tried to counterattack when it left the port and was hit by four rounds from the enemy Steel Rat-class destroyer.
Armor-breaking torpedoes hit one after another, leaving corpses on the spot.
In less than an hour, the main garrison fleet in the seventh sector was almost completely wiped out.
Two Tuna-class destroyers escaped in panic, and a St. Louis-class cruiser was forced to initiate a jump. One-third of its hull was torn apart by space shocks, and finally barely escaped from the battlefield.
The entire "113 Incident" was like a gorgeous performance.
Nidhogg, who had ruled the Cloud Ring Star Territory for many years, relied on the strength of his ships and powerful guns. He believed that "with mechanical monsters all over the universe, the Abyss would not launch an attack rashly."
The biggest defeat ever.
Abyss, who was originally called the "Rebels", stepped onto the stage of "Deep Space" in an incredible manner after this incident.
With a development speed beyond ordinary people's imagination, they built several main fleets that were no less large than Nidhogg.
Starting from the seventh star sector, Abyss shifted from a passive and diversionary style of play to a large-scale offensive battle for the first time.
Throughout November, most of the star systems in the Seventh Sector rapidly collapsed. By the end of the month, the Seventh Sector was actually completely out of Nidhogg's control. The interstellar media called this month when the situation took a turn for the worse.
"Black November".
Nidhogg's official statement only said that he had suffered a large loss, but it did not affect the suppression of the Abyss.
But in Qin Lang's view, things are far from that simple.
Why do you say that? Because on December 1, in the latest batch of "Newbie Village Promotional Videos" released on the player forum, Qin Lang saw the "inverted a" sign that should not have appeared.
"Mom!"
Qin Lang covered his face with his hands and rubbed it for a long time before he believed that this was actually the truth.
He immediately informed others of the incident.
"It seems that the abyss rebels should have mastered this technology a long time ago." Vencott speculated, "It is also possible that they have stolen Nidhogg's technology."
Kumar was a little confused: "Why?"
"Because the first target of their attack is the seventh star sector." Lao Wen expanded the map, pointed at Nidhogg's sphere of influence and said, "Nidhogg's sphere of influence is like a spoon. One to five stars
The zone is the head of the spoon, and the six to nine star zones are the handle."
He pointed to the location of the seventh sector: "If I were the commander of the abyss, I would attack the eighth sector first. This can isolate the entire ninth sector and slowly eat away at it."
Qin Lang already understood when he heard this.
Prioritizing the attack on the seventh sector is definitely not a wise choice if it is not for a special purpose.
If the garrison fleets in the two star regions of Nidhogg are combined together, if they attack desperately, the abyss will definitely be overwhelmed. Coupled with the attacks from other regions, they will be surrounded.
After analyzing it, everyone suddenly understood.
"The main question now is, once Abyss also masters the technology of extradimensional humans, what impact will it have on them as a whole." After Wen Ket finished speaking, he locked the realization on Qin Lang.
He pondered for a while, then raised his head and scanned everyone, and said slowly: "It's very serious, but the problem is not big."
"It's just that we need to make some adjustments to Nidhogg's attitude."
…
At the same time, an advanced mineral mining system in the seventh sector.
A Steel Rat destroyer was docked quietly among countless hills made of earth and rocks.
At the entrance of the huge iron gate, there were several things that looked like human bodies, lying on their knees.
A figure with short hair was standing in front of the door, trampling these humanoid things to pieces in front of a group of soldiers behind him.
Countless purple fragments flew everywhere. Inside the thing he trampled to pieces, a seemingly well-preserved submachine gun was revealed. The soldiers behind him could not help but feel a chill running down their spines as they witnessed the scene in front of them.
These purple things lying on the ground are not strange furnishings at all, but human soldiers who have turned into purple crystals!
"It's the crystallization caused by the mutation of psionic energy." The short-haired young man smiled slightly and pulled out his panel, "Let me see...'Psionic Energy Mineral', this is the research of Nidhogg's psionic energy main gun.
Base."
He tilted his head slightly.
