Chapter 225 Main Artillery Salvo

The communication was connected soon.

"Professor Lu, we have arrived at the scheduled location." Seeing Lu Yongchang, Zhao Zijie asked in a hurry, "The current distance between us and the asteroid is 5,072 kilometers. Have you started attacking?"

Lu Yongchang looked solemn and nodded, "Start attack!"

The moment the order was issued, Zhao Zijie spat out a breath of turbid air from his lungs.

“1, assisted observation!”

Asteroid with a diameter of 100 kilometers is 5,000 kilometers away, with a dark and deep universe in the background.

Without the help of various high-precision observation equipment, it is impossible for humans to see the target at all, let alone aim at it!

"Received!" 1 A slightly rigid voice rang in the cockpit.

Then, the holographic image on the console changed, and an asteroid with irregular shape appeared in front of him.

Zhao Zijie did not hesitate at all: "1, enable the auxiliary aiming function."

A green crosshair suddenly appeared in the holographic image.

【Assisted aiming function has been enabled】

Zhao Zijie swallowed slightly, gently moved the joystick, and aimed the green sight at the target asteroid.

"Gaoyang, start an electromagnetic gun."

Zhao Zijie stared at the holographic image in front of him and said in a deep voice, "Don't start the other four units first."

"Let's try the power of a shell first."

Under the gaze of all the drivers in the starship, he pressed the button to fire the electromagnetic gun.

A slight vibration came from the deck under your feet.

The operating power of the nuclear fusion reactor at the tail of the starship soared instantly!

The most powerful energy in the star system gathers in the fusion furnace.

The electrical energy emitted by the magnetic fluid generator flows through a line composed of superconducting materials toward the superconducting magnetic energy storage device set at the bottom of the starship.

Within a few milliseconds, the superconducting magnetic energy storage device responsible for supplying the main gun energy is filled with electrical energy.

Immediately afterwards, 1 runs the program in the onboard computer to accurately control the magnetic field strength of each part of the coil inside the solenoid coil gun.

At the same time, the projectile entered the chamber!

Under the constraints of the magnetic field, the projectile is quietly suspended inside the gun barrel without any contact with the gun barrel.

The next moment, the projectile with a diameter of one meter rushed forward quickly under the powerful magnetic field!

In a very short time, the projectile passed through the accelerating gun barrel that was up to 30 meters long.

The projectile is out of the cavity!

"The projectile has been launched!"

"The initial speed is 6127 km/sec!"

Gao Yang stared at the holographic image in front of him, and shouted loudly the moment he saw the data!

At this moment, Zhao Zijie suddenly held his breath, his eyes widened, staring at the asteroid image in front of him!

0.5 seconds, 1 second, 2 seconds...

wrong!

The distance of 5,000 kilometers, logically speaking, a collision will occur within one second!

"What's going on?!" Zhao Zijie looked at the asteroid that was still "doing his own way" in the picture and shouted anxiously, "1, has the projectile been launched successfully?"

"Captain Zhao Zijie, the projectile was successfully launched five seconds ago." A rigid voice rang in the cockpit.

Gao Yang looked at Zhao Zijie with a somewhat ugly expression: "Captain, will we... have we beaten wrong?"

Zhao Zijie's face changed slightly, and he turned his head to look at the aiming screen.

The asteroid stayed quietly in the center of the crosshairs.

"No, there is no problem with aiming." Zhao Zijie turned his gaze for help to the holographic projection beside him.

In the projection screen, Lu Yongchang sighed slightly.

"Sure enough... the control of this electromagnetic coil cannon is still a big problem."

"Zero! Take over control!"

The moment the speech came, a familiar electronic synthesizer sounded inside the starship.

"Received, professor!"

"The control of the starship has taken over and is analyzing the trajectory of the previous projectile..."

"Control program is being adjusted..."

"The adjustment has been completed, continue firing!"

Before Zhao Zijie could react, another projectile rushed out of the barrel!

One second later.

“…The launch was successful and the target was missed.”

“Re-adjust the data…”

As Zero's sound continued to sound, more than ten projectiles were emitted in turn from the main gun barrel.

Zhao Zijie's eyes twitched, and after looking at Gao Yang beside him, he sighed helplessly.

Is this accuracy...a little bad?

Just as everyone was disappointed with the performance of the electromagnetic cannon, a powerful flash appeared on the asteroid in the holographic image!

While countless rock debris splashed everywhere, the trajectory of the asteroid changed drastically!

"…In the 16th test, the projectile was successfully launched and hit the target!"

The voice of zero report is coming late.

"Success, did it work?"

Zhao Zijie's Adam's apple moved, his eyes staring at the holographic image in front of him.

The light gradually dissipated.

A huge "crater" appeared on the surface of the asteroid.

Although this projectile did not disintegrate the asteroid, everyone could still feel the huge power of the electromagnetic cannon!

"Wait...Why are there any flashes?" Gao Yang asked after aware of it, "It seems that the effect seems to be similar to an explosion?"

“It’s very simple.”

Lu Yongchang's voice of explanation rang out: "We installed micronuclear bombs inside these projectiles, which are not very powerful, and are about the same as the one in Hiroshima back then."

Gao Yang: "…"

Zhao Zijie: "..."

"Nuclear bomb?" Gao Yang's eyes were filled with deep fear, "Professor Lu, are you talking about the tens of thousands of projectiles we brought with us, and there are nuclear bombs inside?"

Zhao Zijie looked at the cabin behind him with a pale face.

They actually spent more than ten days with tens of thousands of nuclear bombs!!

"Calm, calm." Lu Yongchang said happily, "It's not that exaggerated."

"Of course there are only a few hundred of the tens of thousands of projectiles loaded with micronuclear bombs."

"Don't worry, we have taken adequate safety measures and nothing will happen."

"..." There was silence inside the starship.

Zhao Zijie took a deep breath and calmed down his inner "stimulating" mood.

"Teacher, professor, are we going to continue firing projectiles now?"

"Of course." Lu Yongchang in the projection was surprised, "What? Do you still want to bring these nuclear bombs back?"

【All electromagnetic coil cannons are being started…】

The lights in the cockpit dimmed.

Main guns are fired!

A second later, a dazzling light lit up on the surface of the asteroid in the holographic image!

Before the light could dissipate, the main interface color of the holographic projection turned red.

Zero's voice also rang.

"alarm!"

"The asteroid was disintegrated!"

"Full power rapid fire mode starts!"

A low buzz sound rose from under the deck!

Under zero control, five electromagnetic guns suddenly shot out the feeling of Gatlin!

In the deep and dark universe, bursts of light shine!

It was the scene of projectiles loaded with micronuclear bombs colliding with asteroid debris!

Zhao Zijie and Gao Yang looked at the silent picture in front of them in a dumbfounded manner.
Chapter completed!
