Chapter 182: Wormhole
After this huge nest insect lord appeared, he opened his terrifying mouth and spewed out a green light, which hit the advance ship on the side fiercely, and this unlucky guy was blown into two knots on the spot before he could open the energy shield. Then, the nest insect lord jumped into shape, and then pounced on a frigate and attacked wildly.
As he swung his powerful front claw to attack, he didn't forget to release many ice mantises, cockroaches, fire-breathing insects, speedy bugs, and tank cars from his belly......
In a very short period of time, the huge nest insect lord had put all the crew he was carrying on this frigate, and by the time the crew on the frigate reacted, it was already too late.
Even if they closed the alloy door of the starship, they couldn't stop the crazy impact of the tank bugs.
When the alloy door was slammed open, the extremely fast speedworms and ice mantis rushed into the cabin.
Before some of the hapless crew members could figure out the situation, they were cut into three pieces by the ice mantis, and then became food for the velociraptors.
Once these bugs enter the cabin, it's like the sci-fi movie "Alien" thousands of years ago, just slaughtering for the sake of slaughter. The scariest thing is that they still travel in groups. Except for the mechs, there is basically nothing that can stop them from moving forward.
By the time the bugs had entered the frigate, he had essentially fallen halfway.
And this situation is also playing out on other starships.
Almost instantly, countless bugs appeared in the rear and inside of these starships, and they appeared as if they had been born out of thin air, and after they appeared, they launched the most fierce attack on Santiago's fleet.
The worst thing is that in order to save energy, Chris put the fleet in shield defense mode, and the rear of the fleet is almost equal to zero defense, and the weakest part is handed over to the enemy to attack in an instant, and the scene is a mess.
In the face of this attack, the chaotic fleet in the rear immediately propped up the energy shield defense and gave up the shield to resist the attack in front.
And just when defending in shield mode, Santiago's fleet is very densely gathered, at this time, it is very likely to collide with other starships when the energy shield is opened, if the energy shield of the two sides collides together, causing energy disorder, it will be even more of a disaster, in order to avoid this kind of thing, they must spread quickly and reserve a certain position for each other.
Just as their fleet was spreading, the energy shield wall was dismantled in an instant, and those who were frantically attacking the Ark Zerg in front finally found an opportunity to quickly rush into the middle of this huge group of ships, and the largest melee in history began.
At the same time, the three Leviathans in the distance also launched a plasmid attack, and this terrifying green light directly destroyed the energy shield of an Overlord-class starship and damaged his engine. There were also a couple of unlucky frigates that became pond fish among them.
And the most embarrassing thing is that in this melee, San Diego's combined fleet has become constrained, because many of their weapons cannot be easily used, and some high-power weapons are released, which is likely to accidentally injure their own people.
This embarrassing scene is like a group of warriors directly teleporting to the mage's nest, but these mages are still in the whole mode, and they will kill their teammates by mistake if they are generally careful.
The biggest headache for them is that the enemy is still constantly reinforcing them.
Even though they've killed a lot of damn bugs in the heat of the battle, many more keep appearing.
In the face of this chaotic situation, Chris, as the supreme commander of the combined fleet, was also a little panicked, after all, this was the first time he had fought these Ark Zerg head-on, and it was also the most powerful Ark Zerg. You know, four Leviathans are enough to sweep through four regular fleets of the Federation.
At this time, the Freedom Fleet, far away near the Caleb meteorite belt, recorded all the battles without leaking. The battle has reached this point, even if Santiago's fleet continues to fight, it will not be of much use, their battle has been completely disrupted by this kind of bug, in this case, the only thing to do is to give up a part of the preservation of most of the starships intact, and then put a certain distance from these bugs, and eat away at this huge Zerg army little by little by flying kites.
Chris: They didn't choose to retreat at that time, I'm afraid the most important reason was to pursue the non-existent Freedom Fleet. It is precisely because the bomb planted by Renault and others in the Zerg hatchery below the Rafadiman mine is originally in progressive mode. The weight of the first explosion was very small, and after a while, the explosion weight would be increased to control the number of rescues of the Zerg army, which made Chris choose to attack.
From the very beginning, it was Chris himself who brought the entire fleet to an extremely dangerous point.
If he had been willing to give up on Renault, or give up on dealing with that Leviathan, he wouldn't be in such a passive situation as he is now, but there are never ifs and ifs in war. Because of Chris's wrong decision, Santiago is destined to lose many starships.
But this doesn't mean that Chris is incompetent, but these zergs are too powerful.
This kind of war, even if Renault is allowed to fight, I'm afraid it won't have a good result, and the Ark Zerg can become one of the biggest enemies of mankind, and they do have their strength.
"What's that? Could it be that this is a wormhole? Hart wondered.
Tearing through the void and suddenly appearing behind the enemy, this is simply terrifying.
Even human beings, who have always regarded themselves as technological civilizations, have not yet been able to create wormholes, and these savage and vulgar looking insects can master this terrifying ability before humans, isn't it?
If the Zerg can create wormholes in space at will, wouldn't it be very dangerous to engage them in an encounter in outer space? It is almost difficult to defeat them on equal strength. But in fact, the battle between humans and the Zerg has always been won and lost, and although every time they encounter the Zerg, they will pay a heavy price, but the mortality rate of those bugs is no less than that of humans.
Obviously, they are not as powerful as Renault and others think.
"That's right, those things are wormholes! It turns out that wormholes are made up of these bugs......" Snyder said in surprise.
"So, those Zerg Leviathans are too terrifying, aren't they? Not only can it carry so many Zerg troops, but it can also release such terrifying plasmid attacks and create wormholes to transport other troops! When I was at war with the Zerg before, I luckily didn't meet such a big guy...... I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to live until then......" Hart said with some trepidation.
"I'm afraid that wormholes are not made by those plasmid weapons, and their role should only be positioning." Renault frowned.
