Chapter 305： 　 ambush

Located on the other side of the moon, the Rainbow Bridge floating in space is slowly turning. The huge metal structure is flowing with silver luster under the reflection of the cosmic light, and the magic starships are entering the Rainbow Bridge one by one, waiting for the activation of the channel permissions.

The Dawn’s passage permission was submitted to the Rainbow Bridge space station a week ago, and the location of the express passage was successfully obtained. Under the pilot's operation, the starship steadily slid in toward the designated passage, waiting for the Rainbow Bridge to open the speed space of the designated coordinates.

In the cockpit of the starship, Allen sat on the bridge, looking down from the captain's position, to get a clear view of the operating platform below.

"Whenever I see the Rainbow Bridge, I feel very spectacular." The newly added mercenary Belmod looked into the projection window of the starship, and used an external camera to project the scene of the starship's exterior onto the inner layer of the ship in real time. On the armor of the ship, this allows people in the hull to see the scene outside.

Roy, who was sitting next to him, was sleeping with his eyes closed. Not far away, Broy, who had an interstellar barrier, tightened the handrails on both sides nervously. Vera in front of him painted the scene in the cockpit with black and white brushstrokes on clean drawing paper. Strangely, Vera was painting with her eyes closed throughout the process, as if she was looking at the entire space from another dimension.

Everyone is doing their own thing. With the passage of time, the space station of the Rainbow Bridge sent instructions, and the speed space was officially opened!

As a result, the Dawn and the surrounding space gradually distorted, stretched, and finally disappeared into the normal space.

"It will be out of the speed space in ten minutes." The pilot reported to Allen.

Allen nodded. He sat in the captain's seat and took out a pocket watch from his jacket pocket. The pocket watch was given by Horn, and it has been a few years, but Horn wiped it brightly. Open the pocket watch, there is a photo inside. The photo turns yellow, and the person inside is Lanny when she was a child. Allen silently looked at this photo, this pocket watch, this photo was extremely precious to Horn. However, he gave it to Allen, and the implications are self-evident.

"Mother..." Allen whispered: "Please look at me in heaven, I won't let you down!"

Vera, who was painting, suddenly stroked her brush, even too hard, breaking the tip of the charcoal pen. The girl suddenly opened her eyes, and there was only a grayish white in her eyes. Her gaze seemed to have traveled through time and space and fell on a specific point. Then the dark pupils slid down from the eye sockets, Vera said anxiously: "Assault!"

Although her voice was soft, Alan could hear her clearly. He retracted his pocket watch and asked, "What did you say?"

"Assault, when we leave the warp space, we will be attacked immediately!"

Everyone in the cockpit was stunned, and Adele categorically said: "This is impossible. The colonial star allocated by the Federation is located in the Rudson star field. This is a public star field developed by us and Idahua star. We are here. There are no enemies, so attack or something..."

"I believe what I saw." Vera said in a calm voice: "So far, what I have seen has not been the slightest deviation."

"There are five minutes left." The pilot called.

Everyone looked at Allen, Allen's eyes lit up and he had made a decision: "Enter the combat state, open the weapon platform and defense system!"

Since the captain of him has issued an order, other people will naturally not object.

"Turn on the shield!"

"The high-energy light cannon array is on standby!"

"Quantum Lightning Fortress, ammunition filling is complete!"

"Oscillation guide/projectile, launch preparation is complete!"

After a series of operations, the Aurora completed its preparation state, and a layer of dark blue shield wrapped up all the hull and became invisible. As for all weapon platforms on the ship, they are ready to be launched at any time.

The pilot continued to count down: "There is still 1 minute left before the exit..."

"50 seconds."

"30 seconds."

"10 seconds……"

"5 seconds……"

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"Leave!"

The exterior view window in front suddenly brightened, and then the light dimmed. In front of the starship is a gleaming universe. In the distance, a nebula with blue and purple halos traverses indigo outer space. From time to time, one or two fell across, and the tail of the flame it brought up left a clear path in space.

"Look, where are there any attacks." Adele shook her head and said, "You are too sensitive..."

At the end of the speech, the ship's body suddenly shook, and the pilot yelled: "Our tail is under attack, and the enemy is behind us!"

"How come?" Adele flashed a look of uncertainty.

On the outer shadow window, a small window opened, which was the rear projection window of the starship. It is not difficult to see that behind the Dawn, a group of small airships are flying in line, the main guns of the hull fired continuously, and the high-energy beam of lasing hits the shield of the Dawn, bursting into flames. These spaceships have no signs, and it is impossible to see which forces they belong to.

But being able to accurately grasp the coordinates of the Dawn’s entry into the constant space is obviously for Allen’s hunting group.

"Fight back!" Allen ordered.

The array of high-energy light cannons on the Dawn attacked first, and a series of azure blue electric lights pierced the star screen, making a fierce counterattack to the enemy aircraft. The enemy's airship made flexible evasive actions, but several of them were exploded by light artillery and turned into huge fireballs, lighting up the nearby space.

"Be careful, there is an unknown spaceship ahead of us."

There was an asteroid in front of the Aurora, and a spaceship behind the planet swept over. There were dozens of these combat units, and they dispersed, making the Aurora unable to concentrate firepower to annihilate it. Following the spaceship, a silver starship that was much larger than the Dawn appeared from behind the planet, and it continued to rise, pressing towards Allen and the others with a slow but unparalleled momentum.

This is a battleship!

Battleships are the backbone of the flying fleet. They are mobile fortresses that can provide sufficient firepower to suppress the fleet. When needed, it can also serve as a temporary repair factory, allowing the damaged combat unit to quickly restore combat capability.

It can be said that the combat capability of a fleet with battleships will increase several times.

"It's really hard work!" Allen gritted his teeth.

The Dawn is just a means of transportation for the hunting group to and from the interstellar. Although it has a certain amount of firepower, it cannot be compared with the battleship in any case. Seeing this battleship, everyone took a breath.

At this time, the starship received a connection request from the ground communication center. Each starship that ships on the expedition has a matching communication terminal. Communication terminals are generally installed in the family's ground communication center to ensure the connection between the family and the starship. After the Dawn passed the connection request, Allen grabbed the communicator and said: "This is the Dawn. We were attacked by unknown."

"Repeat, we were attacked!"

"Captain!" the pilot suddenly yelled, and he pointed to the outer shadow window.

Allen looked up, and in the window, the opposing battleship raised the deck from the front of the hull, spitting out a gun barrel that spread all over the loop. That was the starship's quantum main gun, and the shield of the Dawn was still unable to withstand this level of attack. Allen snorted and said anxiously to the communicator: "The other party used the quantum main cannon, we have to evade. Grandpa... I will try my best to keep the promise."

Putting down the communicator, Allen stood up and shouted: "Prepare to sail at war speed!"

The pilot's face changed and he said, "Captain, without specific coordinates, we don't know what is on the other side of the exit. We will get lost!"

"If you are lost, you still have a chance to find a way home. But if we don't go now, we will become cannon fodder!"

The muzzle of the battleship was lit up, and the diffused light was like a small sun. Allen said flatly: "Do as I say!"

"Yes!"

"Turn on the speed engine and enter the countdown."

"3, 2..."

"1!"

When the Dawn entered the warp space, the battleship's quantum main guns also fired, and a bright quantum beam rushed through the space like a torrent, which could wipe the afterimage of the Dawn when it escaped into space. The torrent continued to go away until it disappeared on the other side of the star screen, but the Dawn had been lost in space.

At the same time, the ground communication center in Ugalle Castle in Babylon is constantly calling the Dawn.

Horn, who heard that the Dawn was attacked, strode in with the butler Heising. Horn said solemnly: "What is going on, why is the Dawn attacked!"

The director of the center wiped his sweat and said, "Master, the situation is at the end of the day. We only received a brief message from Master Allen, and we lost contact with the Dawn."

"Play the message." Heising said for Horn.

After a while, Allen's voice rang in the communication center: "...We were attacked! The other party used the quantum main cannon, and we have to evade. Grandpa...I will try my best to keep the promise."

After repeating this a few times, Horne's face was so solemn. He clenched a fist and said: "Quantum main gun! That means that the opponent used at least a battleship, only to deal with one of my Beskard juniors, they used the battleship, which is really generous."

"Master, will the coordinates make people move their hands and feet?" Heising said Horn shook his head: "The coordinates were obtained by Alstai. There is no reason why people will move their hands and feet. It is said that someone took Alan’s coordinates and set up an ambush in that place in advance. Mr. Heising, inform Alstai about this."

"Anna!" Horn called.

A slender figure turned out of the gate, and it was the blood scorpion Anna.

Horn said with a sullen face: "Go and inform the dark owl, and let them find out the mastermind behind this matter."

"What is the action level?"

"S!" Horn's eyes shone sharply: "This is war, no matter who that person is. Since he wants war, how can Bethkod fear it. Find him and destroy him!"

Anna nodded solemnly, she knew exactly what Horn's words meant. At the same time, she may not have seen Horn so angry in a long time.
