To be precise, the ball did not disappear, but was suddenly swallowed by a big mouth hidden in the dim light.
Although the Fourth Civilization does not have eyesight comparable to Nine-Tails, with the help of armor, it can also see this, and even see it more clearly than Nine-Tails in slow playback.
It was a huge mouth with teeth like saw files, like two gates closing up and down, shutting the ball in.
Without any hesitation, a fourth civilization warrior quickly launched an attack.
The arm blade on the arm absorbs the light pattern on the entire armor with extremely high efficiency, and the arm blade emits a dazzling light. After a few seconds, this light breaks away from the restraints of the arm blade and turns into a hole. The dark lightning pierced directly to the position where the ball was swallowed.
But what is surprising is that the lightning attack continued to the end of the field of vision, and did not hit anything until it disappeared. At the same time, the already dim lights in the underground parking lot were extinguished one after another, as if they were deliberately damaged.
The soldiers of the fourth civilization showed a little shock, but without the need for verbal communication, more soldiers started the same response. Dozens of small balls were thrown forward.
(One hundred and thirty meters. The environmental field that exists because of our thinking is one hundred and thirty meters. After the opponent approaches this distance, they cannot continue to make the environment suitable for them, so proactive attacks will give us an advantageous environment. structure.)
Kyuubi rarely speaks, let alone analyzes or inferences, but the situation he has determined is basically the truth. He would not show off in front of others, but what he kept silently in his eyes would often point directly to his opponent's Achilles' heel during battle.
When Kyuubi was thinking about whether he needed to make a sound to remind the fourth civilization, the floating balls floating forward stopped at different distances and exploded into brilliant brilliance like successive firecrackers. But these brilliance are not fleeting, but become countless small light sources that are difficult to see with the naked eye.
These micro-light sources are completely dimmed after a few centimeters of illumination, but within the tens of square meters covered by them, they are as clear as direct sunlight. It was as if countless fireflies with weak lights gathered together and completely drove away the darkness where they gathered.
It's just that these light sources are countless times smaller than fireflies, and their number is countless times more than fireflies. When Kyuubi saw this lighting method, he immediately brought himself into the enemy's side, imagining what method he would use to destroy this lighting method if he were himself. But the answer is that other than waiting for them to exhaust their energy and extinguish themselves, there is no way to destroy or avoid them without exposing themselves... at least not with the current level of technology on earth.
While Kyuubi lamented the weakness of Earth's civilization, he was completely surprised by the Fourth Civilization's rich experience in fighting enemies. The small balls they released immediately were not used for special detection or blind attacks, but for lighting.
It was as if they knew what their opponents were going to do before they even thought about it. More importantly, the fourth civilization definitely has the technology to see in the dark. When it saw the other party doing meaningless things like destroying light sources, it didn't let the other party's destructive behavior be ignored because it didn't matter.
Generally speaking, the worst response in this situation is to do nothing and let the other party destroy it. Although anyone who looks at this kind of response will feel stupid after the fact, for the person involved, it is likely that the other party is testing, provoking, or misleading their actions. Therefore, it makes sense to use static braking. It's just that in war, if the tactics of static braking are not dominated by one's own side, the results will often be quite tragic.
A more moderate response is to take the opportunity to attack when the enemy destroys the light source, sacrificing the dispensable light source in exchange for killing the opponent as much as possible. This is also an instinctive temptation, so many commanders of ambush battles will repeatedly emphasize that they are not allowed to fire without orders. The reason why soldiers who are not elite enough often find it difficult to obey this order is not because of nervousness or fear, but because of the sight of them. When there is an enemy in the scope, I can't control my instinct to pull the trigger.
Since it is said to be instinct, not only soldiers have it, but commanders also have it. If the attack plan has not been confirmed for a long time, when faced with the opportunity to take advantage, the commander only needs to hesitate a little and cannot firmly issue an order not to attack, then The result is probably the beginning of a war.
Although the current situation is a bit strange, and the enemy is not in the sight, everyone can be sure that the enemy is not far away, and it would not be surprising even if he launches a blind attack. But none of the people in the fourth civilization showed that they were disturbed by emotions such as fear and pressure in addition to the mentality of picking up bargains. This control over himself alone is enough to compare with most of the Earth's armies that Kyuubi has seen. And their excellence doesn't stop there.
The best response is to disrupt or invalidate the enemy's current actions before their purpose becomes clear. In a war, there is absolutely no possibility of meaningless actions. A wise commander often takes advantage of the fact that the other party knows this but still cannot see the key points, and allows his own goals to change from seemingly unnecessary things. The place breaks through to the fatal point.
Of course, the so-called best response is only theoretical. War is a process of constant evolution of shields and spears. No matter how good the tactics are, there is never a lack of corresponding restraint methods. Although destroying the enemy's actions is a top-notch tactical application, it requires a high level of ability on the part of the commander. The methods used to target this tactic are also ridiculously simple. All you need to do is create numerous illusions so that the opponent cannot cope with it. good. This situation even resulted in a famous general known for his ability to predict the enemy's opportunities before being defeated by a confused-thinking novice...
But the Fourth Civilization's response was even better than the best response. Instead of stopping the destruction of the light source after seeing the other party destroying the light source, he released something that could be used as a light source as if he already knew it before the other party destroyed the light source. This is not only wisdom, but also a response based on experience. This was a complex battle that Kyuubi understood but was unable to access.
Because of the emergence of countless micro light sources, it was meaningless for the other party to destroy the lighting and simply stopped, but the amplitude of the vibration was still increasing.
The ball that released the micro-light source exploded again after floating to a distance of more than a hundred meters in front, but the attacker was still invisible. It seemed that the opponent was deliberately hiding himself completely.
The remaining balls continued to move forward, and when they reached a position of about two hundred meters, one of them exploded again, but what appeared in this ball was not a miniature light source that only illuminated a small area, but something similar to a flare. Effect.
The continuous strong light was blocked by numerous load-bearing pillars, leaving distinct marks of light and darkness. At the intersection of light and darkness, groups of creatures like water bags squirmed to avoid the sudden strong light.
"The maximum moving speed is 6.1 meters per second, the effective reflection range is 32 to 37 meters, the body's energy tendency is combustion, and the efficiency is ordinary chemical strength."
Just as this ball burst out with strong light, another ball followed closely behind it, like a transformed tool box, with more than a dozen instruments of different shapes popping up on the surface. Taking advantage of the interference of the strong light, from Information about the surrounding water bag creatures was quickly collected from all aspects, and then read from the mouth of a fourth civilization warrior.
There must be advanced information exchange methods within the fourth civilization, and his voice is to take care of other civilizations.
At this point, Kyuubi has just begun to understand the complexity of battles between civilizations. The small balls released by the fourth civilization are not aimed at destroying light sources, but are aimed at all situations.
The first small ball that flies out may not have any effect at all, or it may have some effect that will mislead the other party. In short, the purpose is to deliberately give it to the other party for study.
To be honest, if a creature of a different civilization suddenly flew over, whether it was out of curiosity or to understand the methods of that civilization, even Nine-Tails could not convince himself not to collect it and study it.
This is a trap that you know may be a trap, but you absolutely cannot jump through. The most that can be done is to prevent the small ball from being a bomb or causing harm within the virus vector itself.
After this trap is established. The fourth civilization then released various small balls with the same appearance but completely different functions to perform what seemed to be lighting tasks. Even Kyuubi fell for this step.
For the opposing civilization that is unwilling to show up, after seeing the actions of the fourth civilization, it will naturally consider the possible harm caused by the opponent's actions based on its own weaknesses that need to be prevented, so it will firmly believe that these small balls are for lighting. In order not to be discovered, you can only avoid it.
But this step is exactly what the fourth civilization needs. The illumination area of the small ball is not large, which allows the other civilization to deliberately leave room for guidance between early attack and avoidance, and chooses the latter, allowing other people hidden in the light source small ball to Functional balls can successfully perform their functions. Moreover, because the combat creatures of the opponent's civilization were in a moving state when these small balls were conducting surprise detection, all the most critical data in the battle were obtained at once.
Because battles on Earth are all based on the same scientific and technological understanding, among the known fighting methods, the only tactics that can be flexibly assisted are unknown combinations of tactics. But in battles between different civilizations, whether it is items, fighting methods, or tactics combined with novel technologies, everything is unknown. It is absolutely impossible to use existing knowledge to predict what kind of attack the other party will launch, so the only way to contend with the unknown is to transform the power in one's hands into the unknown, or to achieve unknown effects through deception.
It is conceivable that if the earth's civilization encounters an alien civilization with low technological level from the beginning, but with countless experience in fighting unknowns, the result may be worse than a group of farmers who have no tactics at all and charge directly to the special forces.
And so far, the unknown battle that made Kyuubi realize this has only begun.
