A Core Ship From The Start
/ A Core Ship From The Start Chapter 809
Chapter 809: Chapter 571 Rest and Recuperate_3 Chapter 809: Chapter 571 Rest and Recuperate_3 Players had tried this method before, and later said that it simply wasn't fit for humans to play, so they gave up.
But now, was there really someone using this method to fight?
Sure enough, although the first wave of attacks hit the swarms, the swarms locked onto the attacker's position as a result. Quickly, a large number of insects surged forward as if a monstrous beast stretched out its gigantic tentacles, reaching for prey hidden in the depths of darkness.
Almost simultaneously, Duanmu Huai saw that the fleet also immediately reacted, retreating while continuing to fire — what surprised Duanmu Huai the most was that they hit their target almost every time!
How was this possible?
When the fleet launched an attack, the swarms were still outside their range of visibility. To the average person, it would seem like the fleet was simply wasting ammunition. However, every one of the opponent's attacks was precisely hitting where the insect swarm troops were most dense and focused.
Was it done through the reconnaissance troops?
Duanmu Huai, of course, also noticed that the other three reconnaissance troops didn't leave the battlefield, but constantly monitored the insect swarm army from afar. If one could calculate the swarm's position, coordinates, speed, and trajectory in this way, it was indeed possible to attack in advance — though it was something Duanmu couldn't do himself.
Because it required a large amount of calculation, and his brain would crash whenever it exceeded basic arithmetic.
As for calculus and higher mathematics, he returned those to the school after graduation.
“No wonder they could fight for five hours.”
Duanmu Huai watched the entire process at fast forward and shook his head helplessly. The opponent's tactics were clear: to kite the insect swarm using beyond-visual-range attacks to buy time, and then to evacuate civilians from other planets as much as possible. When the swarm attacked a planet for “local resupply,” they would simply hit them with an extinction order, adhering to a scorched earth strategy to slowly, bit by bit, wear down most of the swarm's living force, before launching an attack on the swarm's core warship, breaking through its defense in one go and crushing it.
The process was smooth and uninterrupted, with the fleet grinding down health for the first four hours, like a level 1 player challenging the final boss. Maybe my attack only takes 1 point of your health, but as long as you can't hit me, I can wear you down indefinitely.
When the last half-hour arrived and the swarm's vanguard troops were almost worn down by the tactic, the retreating fleet suddenly accelerated, tore through the opponent's ragged defense and rushed into the battlefield, catching the Insect Race Mothership in a furious barrage and ultimately securing victory.
From a combat perspective, it was impeccable. Of course, the only flaw was that during the evacuation setup, they didn't account for the presence of sneaky looters, resulting in the loss of most of the transport ships to the raiders – this caused a certain degree of loss for the fleet… but overall, considering this was their first battle against the Tyran Swarms, the performance was quite impressive.
“Mm, very impressive.”
After watching the process, Duanmu Huai nodded his head in satisfaction. What impressed him beyond the clever ideas was the commander's ability to simultaneously control several fleets — Duanmu Huai had initially given him just one fleet, then the commander divided it into four reconnaissance squads and split the transport ships into three groups to evacuate the planets. all the while he had to keep the insect swarm army's direction and position locked and anticipate the right occasion to counter-attack… This was exactly what Duanmu Huai needed.
“It's him, where's his file?”
“It's here, she's Akot Marrus, valedictorian of the Officer's Academy.”
“It's a woman? Never mind, that's not important. But valedictorian… that might be a problem. Is she willing to come?”
“I think there should be no issue. Since she comes from a civilian background, she has always been bullied at the Officer's Academy. In fact, she is now in debt. I heard she borrowed money at high interest rates to pay her tuition fees and currently can't repay the money…”
“What? I just can't understand this line of thinking.”
Upon hearing Ling'Nu's report, Duanmu Huai was stunned. Truth be told, every time he saw similar scenes in novels, animations, or games, he found them unbelievable. It was understandable if someone was bullied because of a shy or cowardly disposition, or poor academic performance, but it was incredible that even a top student would be bullied. After all, in Duanmu's time, every top student was the teacher's pet, protected by the teachers. Who would dare to mess with those outstanding students and risk getting disciplined by the teacher?
Or had times changed? Were teachers no longer looking after even the top students and the academically gifted? What was the point of those teachers then? Were they just freeloading?
“Also, according to my investigation, her Strategist Level is the highest among all humans, actually at LV2.”
“Are you serious?”
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai could no longer sit still. He certainly knew that people in Ling'Nu's world could see their level cap and talent skills. One of the people with the strongest command capabilities that Duanmu Huai knew was the girl from the Kingdom of Seth who once used a wheelchair, Wu Luze, and her Strategist Level was only LV1.
Yet this civilian-born Akot had a Strategist Level of LV2?
You had to know that a Skill Level of LV3 was the ultimate ceiling, and many people in that world didn't even reach LV1.
In this respect, Akot was indeed worthy of the title of genius strategist.
“Bring her over immediately… no, I'll go to her!”
With that thought, Duanmu Huai could no longer remain seated.
