Chapter 652, only five percent?

Seedorf and his troops were not close to the center of the infection at this moment. But those biological ships are all things that can sail in the starry sky, and they are so large that they can clearly see this shocking scene with the naked eye from such a long distance.

Seedorf himself especially.

His mechanical eyes, through optical zoom, can see the situation in the distance more clearly.

"Biological ship..."

He muttered.

The huge biological structure was clearly visible in his eyes, at least he could clearly see what it was.

It looks like a huge monster, with a huge head and a long, whisker-like tentacle tail. Its whole body is covered by a thick carapace.

And there are dozens of such biological ships at a glance!

It was his first time seeing something like this, but that didn't mean he didn't understand what it was.

For biological ships, the focus is on the 'biological body', not the ship. Calling it a ship is just a more consistent human definition of its function. In essence, it is a creature, but it is so huge that it can even fly in space. It has a complete environment inside for the Tyranids to survive, and different organs will evolve inside it depending on its purpose. Different facilities equivalent to a starship?

But why?

It stands to reason that shouldn't only the existence of the insect nest mothership and insect queen be able to evolve powerful insectoid creatures through biomass?

On Strange Road VI, we didn’t even see the shadow of the serious Void Zerg. Even if the biomass was very abundant, how could such a terrifying thing be born?

Seedorf's limited knowledge could not figure this out.

It seems to be flying slowly in the sky, but in fact, it has flown quite high and far in a short time.

Of course, it is impossible for humans not to react during this process.

There is no large-scale orbital gun group on the Qilu planet, but there are still many basic anti-aircraft guns. When these artillery fires began to fire violently into the sky, although the firepower was not effective against its hard carapace, two of them were still shot down under the concentrated fire.

At the same time, Seedorf also saw firepower descending from outer orbit to bombard these biological ships.

That should be the Alliance destroyer that had recently stayed in the orbit of Strange Road VI, and it arrived in a hurry.

The M-level firepower it possesses is ideal for killing biological ships.

After getting over the initial shock, Seedorf could also see that these biological ships were not as big as imagined. Each of them is only about one thousand meters in length. Judging from the specifications, they are even smaller than human frigates.

Although, generally speaking, the carapace of Zerg biological ships is much harder than the armor of human ships, and because the internal structure is a complete biological body, it is not as easy to be destroyed as a ship. However, it also has a weakness, that is, it does not have the additional protection of void shield/energy shield. If you are beaten, you can only resist.

The kilometer-sized biological ships we see now can withstand S-class firepower, but the M-class firepower of destroyers can be taken away by two rounds.

As far as Seedorf knew, the Wind Treader—the name of the Shark-class destroyer—had two thermal hammer macrocannons, a SkyAx missile launcher, and a melting lance.

The Wind Treader had destroyed seven of those biological ships before they broke through the atmosphere and left orbit.

After entering space, these biological ships had no intention of fighting with the Summit Treader.

They scattered, speeding away.

As a Shark-class vessel, the Wind Treader also brought along a Silver Sword-class frigate and four patrol ships, so there was no way it could catch up with them all.

A few days later, Seedorf, who was cleaning the battlefield on the ground, learned that there were more than twenty biological ships destroyed in the end. Still, nearly ten ships ran away and disappeared without a trace. At this time, after entering the original core infection zone with many friendly troops, Seedorf and his soldiers found that the place was completely deserted. It stands to reason that out of the hundreds of millions of infected people in this area, only very scattered and rare individuals are left.

In this sense, the war on Strange Road VI is over.

They achieved their initial strategic goal, and the threats on the planet were eliminated.

There is no longer a need to deploy so many army units here. The local defense forces, which account for almost 20% of the population, can be demobilized on a large scale and return to production. The remaining things are to eliminate the scattered infected people who are not dead, and to burn all the mucus groups, meat blankets, digestive tanks, etc. left by the infected people... To put it bluntly, it is to clean up the ruins and rebuild step by step. home.

These have nothing to do with Seedorf.

His mission is over.

I originally thought I would struggle on this planet for ten years, but I didn't expect that it would end so cleanly in just two years.

However, after witnessing more than thirty biological ships rising from the ground, and although most of them were destroyed, a dozen of them escaped, Seedorf didn't know if it was considered a victory.

……

Gu Hang believes that Qilu, and this special war that happened on many similar planets, can be regarded as a victory.

What happened on Strange Road was certainly not isolated.

Gu Hang had received reports of similar things in the Alfonzo Star Territory, including the Nepeta Star Territory.

Those worlds with particularly large groups of infected people seemed to have received the same order at the same time, desperately absorbing all the biomass they could absorb. The infected jumped into the digester on their own; plants, animals, and even a large number of ordinary organic matter were also jumped in while being held by the infected.

Their losses during this process were of course very great, just like what happened on Qi Qi Road, the infected who desperately started to convert biomass completely handed the situation to the Alliance.

Many of them were wiped out before the transformation. During the transformation process, many digesters were destroyed, pipelines were cut off, and even the core infection zone was conquered.

However, there are too many. In those worlds where infection is serious and the number of infected people is extremely large, it is inevitable that biological ships will be transformed and then soar into the sky.

They will suffer another large loss due to anti-aircraft firepower, orbital interception, and alliance ship pursuit.

Although many biological ships escaped in the end, according to the estimates of experts, scholars, and Mechanicus researchers under Guihang, the biological matter that these biological ships actually successfully took away would never exceed the amount of biomass they infected. 5% of the total number of controls.

Those biological ships look intimidating, but each one is about a kilometer in size, about the same size as a patrol ship. Moreover, it has almost no fighting ability and only knows how to run away with a belly of biomass.

Even if they find a new place to gather together and rely on these biomass to re-evolve the fleet and the army, they will not be a powerful force and are completely within the scope of being able to deal with it.

However, this is the situation in the Alfonzo and Nepeta star regions.

In the Spider Web Domain, what about other star domains that were controlled by Iron Armor in the past and were infected by large amounts of insect pests?

What about those worlds that the Western Front and the Northern Front don't think are important, and they just focus on marching all the way, and leave them behind and ignore them?

Just thinking about it makes Gu Hang shudder!

The broken promise is back!

It's still dark!
