Chapter 923: Roar of the Cannon
A blinding light appeared on the battlefield.
That was the star shield of a T5 Terrorblade-class medium star battlecruiser.
A closer look reveals that it was a massive cannonball that struck the star shield of the T5 Terrorblade-class medium starship battlecruiser.
The sparks generated by the impact were as dazzling as a small star.
Everyone watching this scene held their breath.
The next second, spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the star shield of the T5 Terrorblade at the point of impact. After a brief pause of a few seconds, the huge projectile continued to rush forward.
Although the speed was reduced considerably due to the previous obstruction.
But when it hit the T5 Terrorblade, it directly shattered the ship's armor at the point of impact and plunged into it.
In the blink of an eye, it emerged from the other end of the impact point.
During this process, several explosions occurred inside the ship, followed by a series of secondary explosions.
It appears that the penetrating impact hit some ammunition depot locations.
Even without these secondary explosions, the starship was essentially rendered combat incapable after the impact.
Just one shot!
A T5 Terrorblade-class medium starship battlecruiser was destroyed.
Seeing this, the other two T5 Terrorblade-class medium starship battlecruisers panicked.
Neither of the two demon captains knew how to decide at first, so they could only ask Marshal Red Demon.
Marshal Red Devil remained silent for a long time before finally deciding to continue the fight!
Destroy this T5 starship as soon as possible.
Upon receiving the order, the two T5 Terrorblade-class medium starship battlecruisers had no choice but to grit their teeth and continue carrying out this combat mission, facing this terrifying starship.
The only hope is that the interval between uses of this giant cannon on this T5 starship will be longer.

T5 Holy Redeemer-class Heavy Space Armored Battleship
In the shell loading department of the Redeemer-class 300M caliber electromagnetic railgun, the department sergeant in charge is carefully checking every loading detail.
"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!"
"Captain's order: Reload Redeemer ram shells!" a department petty officer shouted over the department command channel.
At the same time, she looked up and gazed through the floor-to-ceiling windows at the huge cabin outside.
The entire shell loading process is 99% mechanical, but the remaining 1% requires some manual operation.
Dozens of enormous mechanical arms slowly dragged a huge cannonball as they approached.
Although he had seen it many times before, the sergeant in the department still couldn't help but swallow hard when he saw the huge shell again.
Because this shell was really too big.
It's a whopping 300 meters in diameter!
To them, it looked like a small mountain.
Throughout the process, operators at various control points input commands, and the shell is successfully loaded into the massive cannon barrel.
Next, the electromagnetic railgun needs to be powered up to prepare for the launch of this massive projectile.
A few minutes later.
The department petty officer contacted the bridge: "Report, the Redeemer-class 300M caliber electromagnetic railgun has been loaded with Redeemer impact projectiles."
The electromagnetic railgun is fully charged.
Please provide instructions!
A voice came from the other end of the bridge.
"Enter new attack direction..."
............
The two T5 Terrorblade-class medium battlecruisers employed guerrilla tactics, using their high speed to maneuver around the T5 battleship and never staying in one place for long.
In fact, they might have to sacrifice some of their firepower for the sake of mobility.
Having witnessed the terrifying cannon attack of that T5 starship, they were unsure whether their own starship could withstand the hit.
They can't afford to gamble.
In this maneuvering manner, they would also intentionally avoid the bow of the T5 starship.
Compared to the high-speed maneuverability and turning ability of starships, these two T5 Terrorblade-class medium starships are naturally superior.
Therefore, the two demon captains' tactic was to use this method to kite and wear down the starship.
If your giant cannon can't aim at me, then it's just for show!
Just as the two demon captains were brimming with confidence...
Their pupils dilated suddenly, their eyes filled with fear.
Because they saw that the giant cannon on that T5 starship was actually moving, and moving quite fast!
"Damn it! This isn't a fixed cannon!" a demon captain cursed in terror, immediately ordering his flagship to distance itself from the T5 starship.
At the same time, he used his command authority to draw upon the surrounding T4 demon starships to help him defend.
Another T5 Terrorblade-class medium starship battlecruiser also responded in the same manner immediately.
At this moment, the demon captains of these two terrifying blades were both praying.
It wasn't me!
It's definitely not me!
They stared intently at the massive, rotating cannons of the T5 starship, praying that it was aiming at another T5 Terrorblade, not their own flagship.
final.
The muzzle of this giant cannon was locked onto a T5 Terrorblade that was trying to evacuate!
At this moment, the two demon captains were in completely opposite states of mind, one in heaven and the other in hell.
Damn it!
Hurry! Hurry! Order the surrounding starships to provide cover immediately!
quick!
Tell them this is an order!
"Order!" The unfortunate demon captain was now furious.
At this moment, he could only try his best to reduce the danger to himself.
"Report, target locked!" The vice-captain looked at Captain Zhao Ruyue.
Captain Zhao Ruyue said coldly, "Fire!"
With the issuance of the order.
This terrifying cannon roared again after about ten minutes.
A huge cannonball was launched at an extremely high speed.
This time, however, a dozen or so T4 Demon Starships had appeared in front of the T5 Terrorblade-class medium starship battlecruiser.
They all deployed their star shields, and all their close-in weapon systems were firing, attempting to intercept the massive projectile.
However, almost no interception could work against this incredibly tough shell, let alone whether it could be intercepted at such a high speed.
Even if you were lucky enough to crash into it, all that would be left at the point of impact would be a cloud of dust.
In comparison, the interception by those T4 demon starships using themselves as meat shields was actually somewhat effective.
boom!
With the appearance of a huge fireball, the first T4 Demon Starship hit by the cannonball, its Star Shield, was destroyed almost instantly upon impact, and then the entire starship turned into a fireball.
The incident happened so fast that no one had time to react.
