Chapter 569: The veto and the stagnant ball

Although the stagnation ball is similar to the prophet in model, its battlefield positioning and capabilities are quite different.

The prophet is a powerful air auxiliary unit with good offensive power and flexibility. It is widely used in butchers in battles. Stagnant Ball is completely different. Although it is also a support unit, it is a small ground drone like a mechanical sentry. It has a passive skill "Still Light" and an active skill "Stance".

In terms of composition, there are 3 major components.

One: Energy core: The static ball has a built-in small Kadarin crystal, which can absorb the free energy of space and store it in the crystal like a "protective battery" to provide the energy needed for action and combat.

2. Force field generator: The multi-purpose force field generator carried by the Stagnant Ball can use the energy gathered by the Kadarin crystal to create a small anti-gravity field like a detector, which can be lifted with very little energy. The body is not heavy, and it can be used in all-terrain combat. At the same time, it can also transform the energy burst into a small, unbreakable barrier like a mechanical sentry to hinder, blockade, or gather the attacks of enemy forces.

3. Stagnant light: Kadarin crystal can adjust the phase of the energy of the stasis ball with the external oscillating light path, and then converge into a high-energy pulsed beam. This light beam can not only cause energy-type damage to the target, but also create a small range of gravity The chaotic field reduces the target's movement speed and attack speed.

Judging from the above characteristics, the role of Stagnant Ball on the battlefield is similar to that of the human unit "predator", but with stronger attack and mobility, it can also be used to deal with aerial targets, and it has the "power of a mechanical sentry". The "field" skill can split and encircle the enemy's troops. Gain battlefield advantage.

If the mechanical sentry is a defensive support role in the battle, then Stagnant Ball is an offensive support role, and the two work together to form "Guardian Shield" + "Force Field" + "Still Light". The combination of skills will definitely be the opponent's nightmare.

Then the vetoer. When he moved the mouse to the veto, he was shocked, because the cost of the veto was much higher than that of the mechanical sentry and the stagnation ball. It needed 150 crystals, 250 gas, and a population of 3.

This unit head, which was deleted during the beta version, resembled a mechanical sentry. However, there are golden wings like flying wings on both sides. The ends of the wings are dark blue fins. Its torso does not have an energy ball like a mechanical sentry, but a fishbone structure with only a circular energy core at the tail.

When Tang Fang noticed the vetoer's skill list. Finally found the reason why the veto is so expensive.

It has more skills than mechanical sentinels, with five powerful skills: "force field", "vacuum", "phantom", "anti-gravity", and "molecular displacement".

Needless to say, the "force field" is the same as the "force field" of mechanical sentries and stagnant balls.

"Vacuum" can prevent units in the target area from using any energy-consuming skills.

"Illusions" do not need to be explained, and have the same skills as mechanical sentries and high-level templars.

"Anti-Gravity" is similar to the "Gravitational Beam" of the Phoenix fighter, which can lift buildings or units into the air, losing the ability to move and attack.

"Molecular displacement" gives the veto a powerful attack ability, similar to a flying dragon's ejection attack, when the skill is activated. Can make the phantom energy barrage bounce up to 10 times between units of the same type.

In terms of composition, the veto has five major components.

1. Phantom Barrage: The veto is different from the disintegrating ray of the mechanical sentry. It uses granular phantom energy bombs to kill the target. This kind of phantom energy bomb is composed of many lattice molecules with a built-in arithmetic unit. After hitting the primary target, it will explode phantom energy to produce a phase shift, bounce between multiple targets, until the phantom energy stored by the lattice molecules is exhausted. Exhausted.

two. Nano core: The vetoer has an advanced computing system, and the processing unit is allocated to a large number of nano-scale robotic brains. It forms a thought loop connecting the Kadarin crystal full of phantom energy at the tail and the body of the veto, to control its own energy and matter to fight.

three. Power of the veto: As the signature ability of the veto, by overloading the phantom energy of the Kadarin crystal core, it instantly creates a "vacuum" in a small area to achieve the goal of limiting the energy utilization and conversion rate. This kind of "vacuum" is like magic, all the previous intense energy reaction process will become tepid, and the root cause is that the phantom energy has changed the environment of the target area. The "vacuum" created by the veto is not a vacuum in the conventional sense, but based on a quantum vacuum. The original wave of energy in the target area is suppressed and imprisoned, making the target in the area unable to stimulate its own energy with the original means.

Fourth, the full-phase projection device, the vetoer can scan specific targets or use various data of the Protoss unit in the database to convert light into solids to create three-dimensional copies of creatures, vehicles, aircraft, and even buildings . Although each replica is not durable, it can withstand a certain degree of shock. There are two purposes for creating these lifelike illusions, one is to make Al's enemies think that the army is stronger than the actual lineup, and the other is to protect the life of the Protoss.

V. Force field system: The force field system of the vetoer is divided into two modules. One is the force field used by the "mechanical sentry", which blocks, blockades or converges by transforming energy bursts into small, unbreakable barriers Attacks by enemy forces, huge biological or mechanical energy disintegrates the cohesion of these translucent force fields, but ordinary soldiers and combat vehicles can only be reduced to Protoss particle jammers, disintegrating rays, heat ray guns and purifying rays to be slaughtered. Of lamb. Second, the anti-gravity module, which is more powerful than the static ball, allows the veto to shoot a powerful gravitational beam toward the target, completely offsetting the target's weight to lift it into the air, and disrupt its mobility.

There is no doubt that the "vetoer" is a more powerful "magic unit" than the "Stagnation Ball" and the "Mechanical Sentry". If one of the first two is an attack auxiliary unit and the other is a defensive auxiliary unit, then, The "veto" is a comprehensive auxiliary unit, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the most powerful auxiliary drone of the Protoss.

Needless to say, the "Force Field" played a powerful role in the war, and there is no need to say the "Phantom". The "Anti-Gravity" also has the Phoenix fighter as an example.

Its unique ability is "molecular displacement" and "vacuum".

"Molecular displacement" provides a powerful attack power for the vetoer itself, while the "vacuum" is more bt. To a certain extent, it is similar to the "energy anti-erosion" of the high-level templar, but it is an area effect.

Stagnant ball, veto, mechanical sentry, golden beetle, colossus, detector, transmission prism...

An army of drones is slowly taking shape.

Tang Fang still remembered that he had seen an upgraded version of the detector called "Eye of Giants" in the StarCraft campaign before, but he didn't know whether it would appear in the production menu of "Mechanical Station" in the future, of course. There is also a clone. In fact, the carrier-based interceptor of the aircraft carrier is also a kind of drone...

Unexpectedly, this small Star Shuttle shuttle not only expanded Tassada’s Gantresol in an extremely funny way, it also unlocked the “Stagnation Ball”, “Soul Hunter”, and “Veteran”. Units have been removed in three games.

Although he has high-speed transition units such as the Hercules Transport Plane and Behemoth in his hands, the "Morning Star Casting" will be built in the future, and it will inevitably interact with many forces, and he cannot do everything himself. We must rely on Grant, Old Corey, Johnny and others to equip them with vehicles with high speed levels.

The speed level of the Hercules transport aircraft is similar to that of the Star Shuttle, but it is large in size and has no protection measures, even if some light weapons are forcibly installed. It is also far less secure than the "Star Shuttle" equipped with a small universal position generator. Besides, Emma can optimize its performance. The "Star Shuttle" is of high value.

A few minutes later, he got off the shuttle and told the machine gunners on standby to drive the Star Shuttle into Behemoth’s abdominal cavity for a while, then left the launch pad and walked towards the central unit of the General’s Palace. He has one more important thing. Things to deal with.

Meteleev was also held in an underground cell in the central unit.

…………

When Tang Fang led the coalition forces of the Chinese, Chinese, and Gods to attack "Mubarak." There is also an offensive and defensive battle surrounding a low-speed stray asteroid in the deep space of Ayalos-Koplin-Srandall.

Nicholson Pan didn't expect such a thing to happen. It can be said that the present report came so quickly. It seemed like a torrential rain coming from the horizon, which caught people off guard.

The scene of the leaders of the no-man’s land pirate group celebrating with a toast at the Hannibal Pirates’ space station is still vivid, as clear as yesterday’s events.

Albert's silence, as well as the agave in his hand, still lingered in his mind like a curse.

Hannibal's rudeness and boldness are mixed with the deliciousness and spicyness of lamb and chive sauce. Impressive.

When I think of Boyle Ben, I remember his big beard. He remembered that he hadn't married yet when he was in his thirties, and she looked like a sow-fat daughter.

And Rommel. The two beauties he had hugged left and right were now lying naked on the large bed in the regiment's room not far from the combat command room, which was large enough to accommodate 5 people.

The sneer of Tang Fang and the mockery of Byron still linger in his ears. He even took out the cigarette and put it in his mouth as soon as he had eaten breakfast, and was still thinking about the "Dillard" situation. The kid surnamed Tang didn't sleep soundly last night. Would Byron be as irritable and nauseous as he ate a fly, and what happened to Stephen Sue and Chen Jian? Is it guilt? Or blame yourself? If it were him, I was afraid that he would raise his hand to feed his two big mouths.

Everything is so clear, so real, like close-up shots in movies, full of life and art.

Nicholson was a pirate...a pirate chief, but he never thought of himself as a rough man, on the contrary, he thought he was a gentleman...not a gentleman of literati.

Although he hasn't read many books, he licked his blood with a group of knife-heads, and is full of pirates who are full of money except money, but he always picks out a few classic literary films in his spare time to carefully ponder the philosophy of life and thoughts inside. Emotions, such as "The Pianist on the Sea" and "The Redemption of Shawshank" many years ago, and the modern "Star Alliance" and "I, Morris Slave".

He thinks he is very special, unlike other pirates. He is a pirate leader with connotation, talent and thought. Unlike Hannibal, Rommel, and Poyle, they are all rough Man, barbarian.

Just like the name he gave to the pirate group-Black Pearl, Billummel's "Cobra" is not so elegant and loud. Some people call it motherly, it's just farting.

And Hannibal Sheen the sheep herding. It takes more local turtles to use their name as the name of the Pirate Group. It's really uncultured!

He believes that the gap between the two sides is not only limited to the level of education, but also in the treatment of life.

Take the two women lying on his bed, how about they were used by Rommel? As long as he likes it, the two women are willing to serve him forever. That's enough, why bother about the previous things? People live in the present forever, not in the past. Learn to forgive and uphold a heart of forgiveness.

Nicholson felt that only a smart person like Albert was worthy of being equal to him and talking about wine. As for the others, hum... he has contempt in his heart.

This is the case for some people, who would rather be torn apart by society for the sake of their interests.

Like Nicholson, killing is work. Being a good person is life.

This may seem contradictory, but it is not contradictory. There are many such people.

When Byron led the "Apollo" pirate group to come to the door, Nicholson could only reluctantly turn from a good man to a pirate leader to a vicious dog with bare fangs, barking and roar.

"How did they find the door?"

He couldn't understand, how could he not understand. A low-speed wandering asteroid in deep space is not like those space stations relying on star systems. It does not stay in one place. It can also artificially change the flight speed and heading, which is very suitable as a base for the pirate group, because unless positioning equipment is placed on it. Otherwise it is difficult to trace.

After returning from Hannibal Sheen’s space station, he immediately ordered his team members to activate the booster module and changed the asteroid’s course. Why was it still discovered? why!

Of course, he would not ask Byron. Even if asked, Byron would not tell him that this was a gift from Miss Lilietta from the Bahamut Pirates to "Morning Star Casting".

Bahamut originally wanted to do it himself. However, Captain Tang's expedition to "Mubarak", he felt it was not good to wait in "Dilal". So he led his men out to move their muscles and bones. Anyway, the 44th Fleet was stationed in his hometown. Dove occupying the magpie's nest is disgusting, but on the other hand, it can help to look after the house, go back to the nursing home, or watch the dog...Anyway, they are willing to guard wherever they are.

This kind of treatment has never been seen in the history of pirates, and it is a big capital to say it.

As an Epsilon command ship, "Quan Angel" is not much larger than "Morning Star", but as a command ship that can enhance the combat effectiveness of the entire ship, it is equipped with an enhanced universal position generator and shield. The intensity is much larger than that of "Morning Star".

The fleet of the "Apollo" Pirate Group did not appear directly near the asteroid, but caught up from behind, and then attacked the patrol fleet of the Black Pearl Pirate Group and the pirate camp on the asteroid.

Since the warships of the "Apollo" Pirates are mixed in types and belong to conventional warships, they are far inferior to the rare objects in Tang Fang's hands. The patrol fleet discovered their existence before the battle started, and reported to Xiaoli as soon as possible. Nicholson on the planet.

The Black Pearl Pirates has 223 warships of various types, more than 30 old warships, and some non-combat ships such as engineering ships, tugboats, and cargo ships. In addition, more than 100 space-based defense facilities, large and small, are parked in the military facilities hidden under the asteroid stratum, which can be lifted into the air with the aid of ejection, push platforms and other ground facilities to counterattack the invading enemy.

In fact, there are some hidden and non-hidden anti-air weapons distributed on the surface of the asteroid, including anti-aircraft missiles, rapid-fire near-defense guns, magnetic rail guns, and even several heavy laser transmitters that can threaten Tomahawk-class cruisers. High hopes are placed on the base camp's inherent defense facilities, with 223 warships, and relying on stray asteroids to guard against danger, it is sufficient to withstand the half-conventional fleet of the Covenant Navy.

On the "Dillard" side, Byron’s "Apollo" Pirates had fewer than 500 warships. Without the "Morning Star" and the biological warships participating in the battle, it would be impossible for Byron's more than 400 warships to be defeated. His asteroid.

With the tattered warships of the "Apollo" Pirate Group and a group of mobs, can the combat power be comparable to a regular navy? Obviously not, since half of the naval fleet would have to smash its front teeth to capture his asteroid, let alone a pirate regiment consisting of more than 400 warships?

Don't talk about smashing the front teeth Even if the Cyclops smashes his egg yolk, don't want to gnaw the hard bones of the wandering asteroid. In the end, it can only bear the loss and retreat in grief, leaving a laughing stock in vain.

In this regard, Nicholson is very confident.

The Apollo Pirates Group is no longer the first-class Pirate Group with more than 1,500 warships at its peak. Now it can only be 2nd class ------ whether it is placed on Albert or Byron.

He thought so, and was really swollen face.

Byron’s "Apollo" Pirates had one more warship than he knew, um, there was only one, but just such a ship was his life.

He didn't care when the 260-meter-long battleship appeared on the radar indicator, and when the ground-caliber twin orbital cannons on the asteroid blasted two fireballs at targets out of sight, he still didn't care.

Because the 260-meter-long battleship may be the Seal-class heavy interceptor of the Sulu Empire, it may be the heavy crossbow-class assault ship of the Star Alliance, and it may be the Ranger-class special service ship of the Phoenix Empire. (To be continued)
