Chapter 693, Insect Hive Overlord, Battle of Rheaducches (8)

Leroy’s target is a Insect Hive Tyrant.

This is a serious high-level unit among the Zerg. Generally speaking, if you want to kill a Hive Tyrant, you have to be a Chapter Champion.

Furthermore, it is not guaranteed to be able to kill stably.

The record between the Chapter Champion and the Hive Tyrant is about 70 to 30 points - excluding the human empire's beautification of its own family in the battle report summary, it is estimated to be about 70% to 30%. It's like 50-50.

In addition to their strong individual strength, one of the more remarkable characteristics of the Hive Tyrants is that they are usually the supreme commander of a swarm army when fighting on the front line.

For ordinary battles, or even key battles that can determine the fate of a planet, as long as one hero can kill the Hive Tyrant, the battle can basically be declared victorious.

Of course, in Leadouches, Leroy would not be so optimistic.

On this planet, the Insect Queen is the supreme leader, and the level of the Insect Tyrant is still far behind.

In fact, Leroy suspected that even the current battle could not be ended by killing the Hive Tyrant. At best, it would make some of the insect swarm troops lose control. In that army with biological titans and various high-level insect swarm units, there is at least one insect hive tyrant.

In fact, those insect saint titans themselves may be node creatures that are parallel to or even higher than the insect hive tyrant.

This is a decisive investment for the Insect Queen, and she will definitely not be stingy about sending more node creatures.

But no matter what, killing a hive tyrant in battle can still cause heavy damage to the insect swarm. After their death, a large number of Zerg creatures will become incapacitated.

Of course, due to the presence of a large number of other node creatures of the same level, these disabled insect swarms will soon be taken over and regain their combat effectiveness. However, it always takes some time. Even if it is only a few hours or even dozens of minutes, in the current fierce battle, those disabled Zerg units will inevitably be severely damaged and wiped out in large numbers.

At the same time, there will also be big problems in the position of the insect swarm army, which will give humans a good opportunity to expand their results.

Moreover, the location of the insect hive tyrant was most likely the target of their battle this time - the leader of the large insect hive.

Kill it and they will have enough time to place a bomb inside the insect nest and blow it up.

The original mission of this operation has been completed.

At that time, there will be more choices on the frontal battlefield.

If the battle situation is okay, the troops have spare strength, and the death of the Hive Tyrant will obviously cause a higher damage to the Zerg army, then you can try to accumulate this elite force in one go, even the queen of the worms. The army was wiped out for a long time.

If the battle situation is not good, then it is also a good choice to choose to give up when things are good, retreat and return to the base area. At least the results of this trip have been achieved.

If the insect swarm army still dares to pursue, then returning to the base area covered by artillery positions and fighting a decisive battle will give our side the upper hand.

With this idea in mind, Leroy and his most elite personal guards, two companies of Space Marines, plus thousands of feedback power armor selected from various army units, or At least there were mortal elites in exoskeleton armor who raided the lair together.

The enemies along the way were eliminated by those who cut melons and vegetables.

This is how the battle should have been - if not for the unexpected appearance of an army of insect swarms.

However, then the second accident happened.

When they reached the depths of the insect lair, where the insect nest tyrant was, Leroy discovered that the insect nest tyrant did not escape.

You should be happy. With Leroy's own strength and the troops around him, it is so easy to kill the insect nest tyrant.

But, is this... the Hive Tyrant?

Its body shape is several times larger than the average Hive Tyrant, as well as its red and black chitin exoskeleton, as well as the four wide-bladed serrated psychic slashing knives, which all demonstrate its identity. special. This is of course not a hive tyrant;

Overlord and tyrant seem to be quite similar words. If I had to ask, I couldn't tell which one is more advanced. When used on the Zerg, it is just a rating of title.

The two monsters are named with two different and somewhat similar nouns, but they are actually very different.

The Overlord of the Swarm is the top being in the entire hive, almost second only to the Queen. Sometimes, the Queen and the Hive Overlord may even be on the same level - if the Hive Overlord is not the offspring of the Queen.

In addition to its huge size, the Hive Overlord also wields four huge psychically enhanced bone swords that can easily cut through anything, including force fields. Whenever the Tyranids fail to overwhelm their opponents through sheer numbers or adjustments in tactics, a Swarm Overlord is created among them to clean up the mess, as it is far stronger and smarter than the average Hive Tyrant.

The Hive Tyrant is already equal to the champion of the war group, so what is the level of the ‘big daddy’ of the tyrants, the Hive Overlord?

LeRoy didn't know, but he soon found out.

The Insect Hive Overlord, with his Overlord Guards - also a group of elite units from the insect swarm, and a large number of warrior insects, instead launched a charge towards the Space Marines first.

Intense bullets were fired between the two sides.

Whether it is samurai bugs or overlord guards, they all have symbiote firearms and even symbiote cannons on hand.

The power is no less than the explosive bombs and individual missiles in the hands of Space Marines.

The distance between the two parties is not far, and there are no shields, obstacles, or bunkers between them. Neither the power armor nor the chitin armor of the Zerg elites could withstand the fire from such powerful weapons.

The ground was full of dead people.

However, this kind of brutal firefight is not threatening enough to the truly top warriors or Zerg creatures.

The individual missiles hit the insect nest overlord, just like a smoke bomb, and had no effect even in stopping its footsteps for a moment.

It charged into the crowd ferociously, swinging its four broad-bladed serrated swords with great precision.

Those who tried to stand in front of it or harm it with chainswords or power swords would end up being cut in two.

It moves too fast, and often cannot even block;

Even if it blocks, the person and the knife are often destroyed together.

Whether it is the special warfare elites wearing feedback power armor or the space warriors in standard power armor, they are no match for it.

Only one Black Cross Army captain persisted for a while when he stood in front of him.

But only for a little while.

The Hive Overlord used three knives and took fifteen seconds to kill him.

The remaining knife even killed two veteran shield guards of the company during this period.

The terror of the Hive Overlord is on full display at this moment.
