Chapter Seventy-Five: A New Living Battleship (The Last Relative Is Finally Finished~)
Xue Hua carefully savored Abbather's words, but after thinking about it carefully for a long time, he only came to one conclusion.
Unaware ......
Ahem!
Well, a master is indeed a master, and this kind of esoteric words come out of nowhere......
Forget it, no matter how profound you are, don't you still have to work for me now?
Hehe!
Xue Hua rolled his eyes and moved his gaze directly to the egg floating in mid-air.
This appetizer is all served... It's time for an entrée, right?
If you're selling it to me, I'll send you to learn haiku from Basho-san......
Xue Hua squinted his eyes and pouted Abasser, fantasizing about that scene in his heart, and couldn't help grinning happily.
As if sensing the malice in Xue Hua's heart, Abbather didn't hesitate much, and directly stretched out all his appendages and surrounded the egg floating in mid-air.
Then, with a jerk of its appendages, it stabbed them into the eggs and began to inject large strands of biomass into them.
The egg suddenly pulsated violently, and the membrane on its surface was quickly covered with cracks one after another.
Immediately afterward, the whole egg suddenly swelled and burst open with a muffled "bang", and a strange creature that looked like a whale with a surface covered with uneven folds and various spikes "swam" out of it.
"What's this?" Xue Hua's eyes widened, looking at this miniature "whale" that was only the size of a palm, and was a little stunned for a while.
This gadget is what Abbather calls a new class?
How is it only so big?
Why is this going out on a combat mission, and it can't be swallowed by a monster in one bite?
Could it be that this is some kind of reconnaissance class?
Fortunately, Abbather didn't let him wait long, and quickly introduced this mini new class.
"The newborn Zerg unit, derived from the genetic mutation extracted from the main genetic sequence of the first specimen, is only a miniature replica of the unit, and its size has been specially adjusted for display purposes.
The true size of the unit is: 1.7 km on the long axis and 0.8 km on the horizontal axis.
The battlefield positioning of the unit is: heavy firepower delivery ships and land support strike units, its main weapon - the main gun is: plasma strong acid spore cannon, and the secondary weapon - secondary gun is: high-explosive plasma spike launcher.
The unit has a total of 1 main gun (mouth), 20 secondary guns (under the bone plates on both sides of the body), 10 on the left and right, and 30 close defense guns (on the back of the needle jet).
This unit is a heavy air combat unit, which is a living ship, which is relatively large in size, and is suitable for the rules of combat in the inner atmosphere.
The unit's defense is similar to that of the new variant of the Poison Blaster, the Armor Bug, which is a disposable cuticle plate armor that is capable of resisting the Corruptor's prolonged attack from up to ten kilometers away.
In addition, the unit also has the 'Hidden Cloud' ability, which can expel large amounts of biological dust through the skin, which can interfere with most radar detections and psionic scans, thus helping itself and other swarm units around it to detect invisibility, as well as disrupting the naked eye of enemy observers to some extent. ”
Abbather's introduction made Xue Hua's eyes widen and wider, and he stared at the little thing that was spinning in circles on Abbather's appendage, and his face slowly showed a look of great joy.
Heavy battleships!
This new unit is actually a heavy biowarship!
And it's also a heavy fire support ship that the Swarm fleet desperately needs right now!
My goodness!
Twenty secondary guns plus one main gun!
If this is a rush and sinks an island in minutes, there will be no problem at all!
Hurry up and deploy!
Hurry up and get the swarm fleet hatching!
Xue Hua almost jumped up in excitement, this was the first heavy living warship born from his hands by the Zerg!
And as soon as it appears, it is at the capital ship level!
It's only a little smaller than the Hive Insect Lord!
However, Abasser's next words smashed him from the top of the mountain into the bottomless abyss.
Because it told Xue Hua that the cost of this new type of bio warship was 25,000 crystals/25,000 gas each......
Nima !!
Xue Hua tried to restrain his desire to smash things.
During this time, he had been constantly expanding the size of the swarm, first replenishing them with two Hive Worm Lords and thirty Corruptors due to the frustration of the fleet's actions, and then temporarily hatching three Thunderbeasts due to duels in the palace......
Calculated together, the resources he has spent in the past few days have exceeded 20 crystals and 15 gas......
The family foundation that Zagara had slowly accumulated because of his efforts to develop has shown signs of being hollowed out in the past few days......
This made him feel very entangled and painful......
Why is it that the other protagonists in the other areas can recycle the sand, dirt, and everything around them as resources, but he still has to work hard to mine if he wants to get some resources?
What a cheat!!
After the egg hurt for a while, Xue Hua opened the Leviathan's resource pool to check the remaining resources, and found that there were only less than 6 crystals and less than 4 gas left.
These are the basic materials that Zagala must continue to expand the size of the swarm base, and they must not be moved......
Well, out of money......
This money is really easy to spend and hard to earn!
You know, he still has the resource gathering base established by the Zerg fleet in the asteroid belt!
In this way, there is no way to make up for the consumption.......
This time when you enter the desert, you must drive out the sub-base!
Xue Hua swore a curse, saying that he didn't want to continue this kind of life when there were good things and no money to make......
While he was still struggling, Abbather suddenly stretched out his appendage and pointed it in front of him again, and then the image appeared in front of him again.
That's right!
Labor and management don't have the money to make a real one, and I am not allowed to play two fake ones?
Xue Hua's eyes lit up by Abasser's action, and he immediately stared at the picture in front of him excitedly.
As a site for testing new troops, Abbathhar chose to be in an asteroid defense orbit for humanity, which is part of a very powerful asteroid defense system built by the Tyranid Empire.
This defense is filled with a large number of star rail weapons and giant kinetic cannons.
The Tyranid Empire also placed a "Valkyrie Company" here, and a total of 5,000 modified "Valkyrie Archangel" Viking fighters patrolled the orbit of the defense system.
Under normal circumstances, if he wanted to attack this orbital defense network head-on, Xue Hua would have to pull out at least a super fleet of four Leviathans, five or six Behemoths, tens of thousands of nest insect lords, and a few Corruptor Xosaurs in order to bite it down at a huge cost.
But fortunately, this time, Xue Hua's goal was not to gnaw at the entire orbital defense network, but just to do something in the peripheral supply stations of these defense satellites to attract the attention of mankind.
The units that Xue Hua was able to command this time were mainly a medium-sized fleet composed of twenty nest insect lords, forty new troops that he had just named "Heavy Artillery Governors", more than three hundred corrupt ones, and more than ten thousand alien dragons.
Their goal is to destroy a series of supply depots on the periphery of the human orbital defense system.
The operation soon began, and Xue Hua also took command.
He first directly dispatched a detachment consisting of two nest insect lords, four heavy artillery governors, sixty corrupters, and more than 3,000 alien dragons to carry out a tentative attack on the human supply depot.
However, the results were not very good.
Humans clearly value these supply stations, and they have placed a number of small psionic shredders in their locations.
These psionic shredders have little effect on large Worm units, but they are highly effective against small Zerg individuals like nest worms.
Under the machine-gun bunkers and psionic shredders, as well as various automatic defenses of the humans, the army of nest insects projected by the Nest Insect Lord could not even touch the edge of the supply station, and it was quickly eliminated.
And because the supply depot was attacked, a team of "Valkyrie Archangels" also made a detour from the side to try to flank Xue Hua's detachment.
Of course, in the end, due to the huge disparity in numbers, this small group of Viking fighters was quickly wiped out.
However, in the process of exchanging fire with Viking fighters, the performance of the four-headed heavy artillery governor in the shape of a giant whale is indeed quite impressive, they are slender, their armor is thick, and they also use their "hidden cloud" ability to quickly create a favorable battlefield environment for the swarm.
Coupled with the fact that their firepower is very strong, the secondary artillery fire can take out a Valkyrie with almost a salvo. The power of the cannonballs that spewed out of his mouth like black fireballs was even more outrageous, almost the rhythm of a cannon and a Viking.
Xue Hua even suspected that if it weren't for the slow filling speed of these guys' main guns, they might even be able to take out all the incoming Valkyrie with just two heavy artillery governors.
And when Xue Hua really understood the huge destructive power of the Heavy Artillery Governor, he finally understood what these giant monsters should be used for.
