Chapter 658: Chapter 201 Simulation Test
As Chen Ming actively connected his consciousness through the normal way to the simulation device already under his control.
He found that a scene gradually appeared in his mind, a scene located in a spaceshipâs main control room.
However, his consciousness remained free and he could still control his body normally.
After a brief adaptation to this strange perspective, Chen Ming focused his attention on the simulation scene.
In this spaceshipâs main control room, which should have been bustling, he was the only person present.
However, through the porthole, he could see the neatly arranged three hundred spaceships outside.
This was a medium-small scale simulation, three hundred against three hundred, fifty destroyers paired with two hundred fifty frigates.
The environment was set as a standard cosmic environment, with almost no physical interference except for the illumination provided by a star.
The settings that Chen Ming had just mentioned were basically implemented in this simulation as well.
Itâs just that some settings werenât too excessive, so the ships destroyed couldnât re-enter the battlefield through Chen Mingâs spiritual energy according to the settings.
However, Bai Quanâs side had set it so that three ships with damage not exceeding 50% could be combined into one intact ship, mitigating the restriction on Chen Mingâs spiritual energy somewhat.
Of course, Chen Ming couldnât just construct something out of materials; he could only choose a sample from the original ships used as materials to recreate.
Otherwise, Bai Quan wouldnât know how to win against Chen Mingâs side if everyone there went into torrential rain mode.
Moreover, unlike large-scale long-line simulations that need to consider all aspects, small-scale simulations generally donât consider logistics issues, purely testing oneâs battlefield command skills.
Therefore, among these three hundred ships, there wasnât a single fuel or cargo ship.
With unlimited logistics, Chen Mingâs strength could reach terrifying levels.
Whatâs more, the possibility of accidents in small-scale battles is even smaller.
If Chen Mingâs outrageous ability wasnât restricted, Bai Quan even thought Chen Ming could finish a battle with all opponent ships blown up without losing a single one on his side.
Of course, after imposing restrictions, Chen Ming couldnât be as excessive.
After entering the simulation device and confirming the restriction conditions, he normally dispatched thirty frigates.
Divided into ten groups of three, spread out evenly, starting to explore ahead.
At the very start of the simulated battlefield, although Chen Ming didnât see the opponentâs fleet on the sensors, the positions in such small-scale battles are fixed, directly ahead.
This initial distance gives the opposing sides a chance to implement different tactics.
Therefore, at the opening, Chen Ming certainly needed to probe and understand the opponentâs plan and arrangements.
His greatest advantage lay in direct combat, but the opponent might not be willing to meet his desire in this way.
To understand the opponentâs information and figure out a way to draw the battlefield into the situation he most wants to see, thatâs what he needed to do next.
Therefore, Chen Mingâs fleet stayed in place, only constantly arranging new three-ship squads to explore, searching for traces of the enemy fleet.
Though Chen Mingâs search attempts werenât successful, he had not been able to find the opponentâs fleet.
However, it seemed the opponent found a three-ship squad he dispatched.
Because Chen Ming suddenly discovered the communication signals of one of the squads he sent out were jammed abruptly.
Although signal jamming is a form of electronic warfare, electronic warfare isnât limited to signal jamming.
Not setting electronic warfare at the beginning naturally resulted in this impact.
The impact only affected command through normal communication channels.
Chen Ming didnât rely on communication signals as he could intuitively grasp the condition of every spaceship, even if signals were blocked it made no difference.
As soon as the signals were jammed, the sensors on Chen Mingâs three ships immediately detected an enemy fleet approaching.
A small fleet consisting of five destroyers and twenty-five frigates appeared near Chen Mingâs three-ship squad.
With a certain enhancement to the detection systems due to fleet clustering, they could scan a larger area, spotting the three frigates first and surrounding them.
And just a few seconds after the three scouts detected the small fleet, they were subjected to intense attacks and were almost instantly obliterated.
But from the moment the signals were jammed.
Chen Mingâs flagship continued to receive all normal signals from the shipâs return data.
This implied that the opponent had decrypted his command communication password, disguising things as functioning normally, preparing to stir up trouble.
But it wasnât a big deal, Chen Ming didnât even bother changing the password.
He might even use this password as a counterattack method later on.
Just then, Chen Ming suddenly thought of something.
He told Bai Quan, "When it comes to my spiritual energyâs influence, even if the ship is destroyed, leaving only a single iron atom, I can still control that iron atom to perform any operation I want."
Upon hearing this outrageous description, Bai Quan immediately knew what Chen Ming was up to, and Chen Mingâs next words were as expected.
"I just saw a bit of ship debris crash into the enemy ship, leaving some fragments..."
Bai Quan rubbed his brow, feeling a bit of a headache, and said, "This simulation aims to test your command abilities, use less of your spiritual energy."
