Although we did not expect that we would come to an asteroid belt, everything was still proceeding in an orderly manner according to the plan. The huge imperial fleet was divided into seven legions. Except for the first legion that we personally commanded, the other ones who served as pathfinders
The legion is led by three anti-star flagships (which can launch frontal attacks on fortress planets), with six Eternal-class large battleships and one hundred Expedition-class medium-sized frigates. In addition to these large-scale killers, there are thousands more
Various types of small and medium-sized warships and a huge mixed fleet rely on the gravity system to form a three-dimensional matrix. As soon as they complete the space jump, they enter the space invisible state and then move in the predetermined direction. Their mission is to find a planet suitable as an outpost as soon as possible.
, then collect all available resources and start a crazy rampage.
After all, the journey is far away, and it would be inconvenient to mobilize all the troops from the earth. The Xiling people's proficiency in fighting to support war and the predatory attack tactics are the most suitable for this situation.
The six expansion legions are equivalent to our scout troops (although the combat effectiveness of these scouts is really bad), and the main force of the Imperial Army is the first legion led by us, the leader-level apostles.
"Where is the enemy? Why hasn't it appeared yet?"
Qian Qian, who was wearing the uniform of an imperial general, was jumping up and down on the bridge, looking like she was on fire. If it weren't for the huge height difference, I would have doubted whether she was Pandora in disguise.
"Don't worry," Sandora looked at the holographic projection under the bridge with an indifferent expression. It showed the energy distribution of the nearby star areas we scanned, and this range is still rapidly expanding as the radar power increases.
"Remember, patience and discipline are essential. In such an expedition, we must grasp the information of unfamiliar areas as soon as possible, otherwise it is easy to cause unnecessary losses."
The former Warsong Princess seems to have been resurrected with full health.
Sandora is a well-deserved war expert here. She is hundreds of times better than Pandora, a half-baked general, and adjutants like Sivis who are only good at field command. Every word she says is based on tens of thousands of years of experience. Here,
On the other hand, I have no doubt that my dinner queen has the power of a monster.
"It looks different from what we guessed," Sandora suddenly turned her head, "This is not the nest of those bugs, but should just be a battlefield."
The radar sensing has been extended to the entire asteroid belt. What flashes on it are some gray light spots representing dead targets. There are dead bugs here. Obviously, they fought a fierce battle with some enemies here, but not
Know who the final winner is.
I swiped at the projector in front of me at will, and pulled the distant pictures in front of my eyes. These are real-time pictures transmitted by the micro-jump sensors we released. These are because they are equipped with small hyperspace jump generators.
And the extraordinarily nimble little guy is spreading to the entire asteroid belt at the speed of a city manager, and the Xiling people's ultimate candid camera is showing its power.
"What is this?"
A picture suddenly flashed by and caught my attention, making me scream out involuntarily.
Several girls came over immediately.
"Isn't this the kind of deformed aircraft we found when we intercepted an asteroid last time in Academy City?"
Just after taking a look, Qian Qian remembered where she had seen this thing.
I was still a little confused at first, but Qianqian reminded me that this half-aircraft, half-tank thing in front of me, which exudes the smell of scrap metal and has caused micro-meteorites in the universe to smash into honeycomb briquettes, is not
Is it the one I saw last time in Academy City? At that time, I thought it was Optimus Prime’s long-lost second brother.
In an instant, I understood where the meteorites that hit the earth in the parallel space came from.
What a dramatic coincidence.
"Unexpectedly, that star ring fragment actually appeared in our own universe."
Of course, my sister's reaction was not slow. She had already contacted the source of those space suicide squad-like asteroid belts. Unexpectedly, they were actually pulled from this universe. In this way, the original star
Ring fragments must have appeared here as well.
In other words, the people those bugs are fighting here are the owners of these combat machines, those distant relatives of humans that we have only guessed about?
The range of radar scanning is still expanding. After expanding into this complex asteroid belt, the speed of scanning signals immediately increased several times. The refresh rate of the picture on the holographic projection has exceeded the resolution range of the naked eye. Now it is responsible for
The starship host's bubble is analyzing them personally.
The huge Imperial fleet entered a state of space invisibility and marched silently in the asteroid belt. Agile research ships flew out of the ejection hatch of the "Imperial Admiral" to collect nearby insect samples or mechanical debris.
The analytical value of those mechanical remains is not great. In this regard, the Xiling people are almost as advanced as monsters. What we are really interested in are bugs - why does this sound so awkward?
Well, strictly speaking, the person who is interested in these bugs should be Tavel, the research geek. Even though he is far away in the base camp of Shadow City, Tavel still does not give up the analysis of these magical new life forms. With the help of the "General Flagship Scientific Research Center"
"Mirror***" device, Tavel divided himself into two and conducted research work in two places at the same time.
As Shandora originally speculated, these bugs are a fighting race born for destruction. All those appearing on this battlefield are deformed human weapons. Most of them don't even have digestive systems, and their theoretical lifespan is only a few seconds.
Within a few days, it was obvious that it was a disposable weapon, and its DNA shape was also extremely weird. Although all types of bugs used a basic genetic template, it seemed as if there was an invisible commander controlling their evolution.
Let them differentiate into these various "functional bugs", and all bugs have no thinking organs. They are either low-level creatures that do not need to think and act purely on instinct, or they are another more advanced species form:
Only maternal control.
Looking at these things that have just been analyzed and those twisted and broken machines, a certain idea in my mind has become more and more clear.
"Bubbles," I suddenly shouted into the air, "what did you think of? Use your head full of games and animations to analyze it."
"The history of space wars in which humans fight cockroaches in the future," Bubble's voice directly echoed in the air within two meters of me, "StarCraft."
I think so too - and according to my always tragic luck, such troublesome things are 100% true.
"The baby's father! I found something!"
While my mind was scrolling through the story about James Raynor and his Queen of Blades, the sound of bubbles suddenly resounded through the entire bridge, waking me up from my reverie.
Lilina immediately rolled her eyes: Now that the great prophet Lin is unable to accompany him because he is imprisoned by his father, has this pseudo-loli transformed into the new acting devil?
Bubble took over the giant holographic projection image under the bridge and directly placed what it detected in front of our eyes: a chaotic battlefield.
Galaxy Fleet vs. Space Warcraft Army, this is my first impression.
The holographic projection, which looked a bit distorted due to the distance, was densely covered with heavy spaceships full of human style. Although they looked many times behind our imperial fleet, they were full of a rough and violent beauty.
, the fleet with full firepower was spitting red tongues of fire everywhere, forming a dense firepower network outside the fleet. Although it looked spectacular, it also proved without a doubt that these mighty steel armies were helpless in a defensive state.
fact.
And the enemy that put them into such a situation that relied on intensive firepower to defend them was, not surprisingly, a group of bugs.
With a huge purple-red body, a thick mutated carapace, barbs and bone blades all over the body, and a mutated shape that looks like all kinds of insects put together, you have to admit that the real zerg is better than the bugs in StarCraft.
The variety is much richer.
The overwhelming sea of insects crisscrossed the space and surrounded the human fleet at its core. Their physical strength was truly astonishing. They could survive so easily in a vacuum environment full of deadly radiation, and could even rely on themselves.
The corrosive acid spitting out and the bone spurs shooting out are bombarded by cannons. Carbon-based life has evolved to this point. It is no wonder that Tavel would make a "perfect" evaluation of these freaks. There is just one thing I don't understand:
Do you think those flying bugs with wings really need to flap their wings in a vacuum environment?
Okay, I know I'm getting off topic again...
"Is it within our range?"
I asked casually. Although I could see the scene on the battlefield in front of me, it was something scanned by the hyperspace radar equipped with the light speed immunity system. I believed that the real distance between the other party and us was even one or two light years.
It would take two years for the laser cannon to arrive after it was fired. At that time, I had to count the crime of destroying historical relics - but as soon as I finished speaking, I realized that I had asked a stupid question. With the support of hyperspace firepower output technology,
Do Xiling people still have the word "range" in their heads?
"The Eternal-class 'Galaxy' main gun is the top priority weapon. The 'Imperial Admiral''s main gun is too powerful and may accidentally damage surrounding fleets." Pao Pao calculated the result without even taking a second. "It would be best if we could
Contact that unit and ask them to retreat a little, otherwise even if they just pass by, the 'Galaxy' will be enough to evaporate their armor."
"Well, the main guns of each battleship are charged and connected to the external channel for me."
As my order was issued, the Imperial fleet, which had been wandering in the asteroid belt like old men and women visiting the market in the morning, finally became active. They faded away from the space invisibility force field, and the blue energy light on the huge dark ship
The halos flowed rapidly and gradually gathered at the muzzles of the main guns. The originally dark red heat dissipation grid turned into a dazzling white with the rising tone of the violent flow of energy, and the blue halo of psionic energy gathered in
The muzzle gradually formed a liquid that seemed to be substantial. What was even more eye-catching was the bow of the ten Eternal-class motherships. Dots of light converged like a brilliant galaxy, forming a ball of light that was as dazzling as a star.
, under the illumination of these halos, the ghostly and vague silhouette of the fleet has turned into a group of brilliant lighthouses in the universe, staring covetously at a distant target under the leadership of the giant cross.
Bubble successfully cracked the communication channel of the trapped human fleet a quarter of a light-year away, and sent our voices directly into the opponent's captain's room.
"Hello, human friends, this is the first legion of the Xiling Empire Expeditionary Force. I am the Emperor of the Empire, Chen Jun. Please reply when I receive it."
There was silence in the channel, and the other party seemed not to hear it. A full ten seconds passed, and just when I had begun to wonder whether they had been killed by the bugs or the bubble's microphone had poor contact, a voice with noise
The rich baritone voice sounded.
"This is James Renault, the commander of this force. We cannot identify you, nor can we establish a regular connection with you. Who are you?"
James Reynolds Queen of Blades The legendary protagonist effect in her family?
"This is the Xiling Empire Expeditionary Force, human friends. We will provide you with fire support. Now please break away from the fight with the Zerg as soon as possible. Repeat, break away from the fight with the Zerg as soon as possible."
When I finished speaking, there was no response from the other party. I knew he would not believe it. I would have to be suspicious of such an inexplicable reinforcement that suddenly appeared. However, if the other party was really the famous Renault, he would
You will definitely make a wise choice: one is the Zerg that has almost pushed itself into a desperate situation, and the other is an intelligent creature that can at least speak well. I don't believe that you have really soaked your brain with 60° alcohol.
In order to make him make up his mind as soon as possible, I said to a commander below who was responsible for controlling the firepower system of the main flagship: "Activate the legion cannon of the 'Imperial Admiral' and shoot it slightly."
At the same time, on the distant battlefield, in James Renault's battleship.
The mysterious connection was suddenly interrupted, leaving only a burst of incomprehensible noise.
"Adjutant, can you analyze the opponent's location or other information?"
The unshaven Uncle James held the dimmed communicator with both hands and suddenly turned to ask an intelligent robot next to him.
"During data analysis... the analysis failed. The communication technology used by the other party is a new technology that cannot be understood. The encoding method is too advanced to understand, and the location of the other party cannot be analyzed."
"Sir, what should we do now?"
An officer suddenly said, interrupting Renault's thinking.
"We can't be sure of the other party's identity, but the current situation doesn't seem to allow us to think about useless things."
Lei Piao Astronomy, before being broken into pieces, sprayed a stream of violently corrosive acid onto the ship, accompanied by a sudden siren and a hurried reminder from the machine adjutant: "Serious warning! Serious warning! Ahead.
Almost at the same time as a series of warnings sounded, somewhere far away from the battlefield, an energy matrix of unprecedented scale suddenly appeared out of thin air. The circular energy halo instantly expanded to a radius of nearly several kilometers, and then began to emit a dazzling white light.
The huge blue-white beam penetrated the distant space, spurted out from the hyperspace energy transport matrix, and then swept across the entire battlefield.
Just passing by, it could even be said that it did not come into contact with any soldiers on both sides of the war, this white light suddenly disappeared.
Then, close to the side of the battlefield where the white light streaked, where the insect swarm was the densest, tens of thousands of insects suddenly exploded violently, as if they had just rushed into the corona of the star, struggling violently.
Silently, it turned into large and small round fireballs.
Before Renault, who was the commander of the fleet, had not recovered from the flash of dazzling lasers, another flash of light once again triggered a series of warnings within the ship. When he ordered his adjutant to transfer the observed images,
When he arrived, the scene in front of him left him speechless.
A small planet was originally just the background of this battlefield, but now it has become the most eye-catching thing on the entire battlefield: it was hit head-on by the huge beam just now, and now the planet's crust faces the direction of the attack.
Nearly a quarter of the area has been melted.
"Human friends, I hope you can leave that position as soon as possible. Our fleet is about to launch an attack. Repeat, our fleet will launch an attack within fifteen minutes."
The mysterious message once again easily broke through the flagship's tightly encrypted information channel and resounded in the command room. This time, without even a second's hesitation, Renault ordered loudly: "The entire army shrinks its defense line and moves towards the attack just now."
Evacuate through the breach ripped open by the flash! Get out of this hellish place at maximum speed! Damn it! Leave those bugs alone! Evacuate them all! If you don’t want to be burned into a plasma cloud by that horrible thing!”
The human fleet, which had been surrounded by the Zerg sea for a long time and had little fighting spirit, immediately faithfully carried out their commander's order, turned around and ran away without saying a word. The power of the flash just now was obvious to all, and it was only the light radiation.
The heat can destroy thousands of Zerg, and even easily melt the planet's crust in a frontal bombardment. Anyone who has not had his head caught by an Ultralisk will make a wise judgment in this situation.
Thanks to the unprecedented laser just now, a huge wound was torn open in the Zerg encirclement. Coupled with the desperate charge of the human troops to escape, Renault's army finally escaped from this space before the next wave of hyperspace arrived.
Then, accompanied by the "serious warning" sound from the machine adjutant who was already convulsed, Renault and the others witnessed a real space fireworks.
More than a dozen blue-white energy beams appeared out of thin air, sweeping across the entire space that had just been used as a battlefield. No one understood where this attack came from. They only knew that the Zerg army that was showing off its power a second ago had now lost its ashes.
