Chapter 294 The fleet of Crossel Civilization is coming
The skin sales this time were just as Jiang Yao expected, and the results were not very good.
The more than 1,000 sets of skins prepared by Blackworm were quickly sold out, and it also received orders for nearly 20,000 skins.
Ever since, after returning, the Black Insect Queen immediately ordered her Black Insects and two civilized people to speed up the manufacturing process.
Try to make these skins as quickly as possible and then sell them.
There are just a few things that can achieve such an effect with this skin sale.
The first and most critical point is that for players, the functionality of the skin is not important. The most important thing is whether it looks good or not. This is the core of the skin.
You must know that there are many games on the market that are supported by skins, and most of the skins in these games have no attributes.
It’s just a simple picture that looks good, but there are definitely more players who pay for the good looks than those who pay for the strength.
And there is a reason why he launched this mecha-style skin.
First of all, this game of mine is positioned as a Star Wars game in the minds of players.
Most players who like to play this type of game naturally have little resistance to mecha battleships.
So this style naturally caught their attention easily.
Of course, it is impossible to sell such a high price just to attract attention, so he added a lot of functionality to these skins.
After adding functionality, this skin is not only good-looking.
It also has the effect of improving combat capabilities. Only after a two-pronged approach will players be willing to pay for it.
And the skins Jiang Yao currently launches are only basic models, and he currently has many ideas for transforming these skins.
At that time, the advanced skin will be released, and the price of the advanced skin will naturally be much more expensive than the basic one.
But having said that, Jiang Yao doesn't want to make money from his skin.
The ultimate reason why he studied these mechas was to improve the combat capabilities of the insect swarm.
Although his idea is for multi-races to cooperate with each other in the future, he will never allow other races to have weapons.
Since they can't go to the battlefield, their only way out is to engage in research and development.
Simply put, from now on, the races that join Jiang Yao can only take the auxiliary route and provide services to players on the battlefield.
Therefore, Jiang Yao will also deliberately collect these more potential races in the future, and they will work for him in the insect nest.
And he used their armor to further enhance the combat capabilities of the insect swarm.
In the future, the way the Zerg fight may also undergo earth-shaking changes because of these armors.
When the time comes to fight, all players will wear battle armor to fight the enemy. After the battle armor is destroyed, they will then move on to the main body.
It is equivalent to saying that if the enemy wants to defeat a bug, they need to fight at least two blood.
Although my current material technology and armor technology are not very high.
But in the future, Jiang Yao believes that he will definitely find stronger materials and develop a civilization with deeper research on armor technology.
All in all, the path Jiang Yao will take in the future must be a two-way development path of science and technology and biology.
After all, I am not as stubborn as the Queen of the Zerg. I will not invest in auxiliary technology just because the Zerg system is strong.
Although the reason why she did this may also have some factors such as faith in it.
But Jiang Yao is different. He and the Zerg have no common beliefs. His belief is to enable him to live well.
And the route he is designing now is also the most suitable route for him under the current circumstances.
Although at the beginning he thought about taking the route of violent soldiers, and he also knew very well that for the Zerg, violent soldiers would always be the most suitable style for him.
But for various reasons, he had to give up this idea.
You need to understand that for players, this is just a game. For Blue Star, it is also just a game. How popular can you get with a game in Blue Star?
Jiang Yao's game now has 100,000 people online, and it can be considered at least a mid-level game in the gaming industry.
Going further up, Jiang Yao is estimated to be at the million level at most, and it will be difficult to even reach the tens of millions level.
Even if it reaches an online rate of tens of millions, it is still too few for the hundreds of millions of units in the insect swarm.
If you don't take the quality route and only consider the quantity route, don't go too far and just talk about the nearest.
He might not be able to defeat the coalition forces of Taylor and Yongye Civilization some time ago.
You must know that the more people you have, the fewer resources you will distribute equally to each person. The number of high-level units will definitely be much less than it is now.
I'm afraid that most of the troops going into battle will be basic troops. If they are all basic troops, how can we fight this battle?
Take the Velociraptor as an example, even if it has only evolved to the second stage, it can at least defeat three to five basic Velociraptors alone.
Not to mention higher stages of evolution.
Basically, the highly evolved arms in his hand are one against ten or even one against one hundred.
Only with the blessing of such high attributes can he win these battles, although when the number reaches the extreme, the combat power will increase exponentially.
But the premise is that you can increase the quantity to this much. Obviously Jiang Yao's current situation is not able to increase the quantity to that point.
And now Jiang Yao has only one way to increase the number of worms, and that is to get rid of the brain worms in the future.
Because Cerebrates can control multiple Zergs to fight.
At that time, players can become commanders, and one player can control dozens or even hundreds of bugs.
But this is also a matter for the later stage. At this stage, he will not consider this matter at all.
Because you control a large number, you cannot control all junk units.
You can only maximize your strength by controlling evolved high-quality units.
Because even if you control dozens of basic arms, your strength is definitely not as strong as controlling one or two highly evolved arms.
It’s better to have less than to overdo it, that’s the truth.
But if you want to control a large number of highly evolved units, you need to pay. In addition to the high cost of the brainworm itself, you also need to take into account the cost of unit evolution.
After you take all of this into consideration, a question arises in front of Jiang Yao, that is, can the current economic level of the players support it?
Although this gameplay is very useful, the reality is that players at this stage simply do not have the money to play such high-end operations.
They need a certain amount of time to accumulate, and only after everyone has a certain foundation can they introduce this kind of gameplay so that everyone can use this routine.
At this stage, if you introduce this kind of gameplay yourself, it will not make much improvement to the overall strength of the current insect swarm.
So he chose to develop armor technology.
This routine has low investment cost, quick results, and everyone can afford it.
In short, the current insect swarm in Jiangyao is like a country with a very backward economy. It is a problem for everyone to eat. It is definitely unrealistic for them to buy a car, a house and enjoy life.
Only when the food problem is solved and production is ramped up can you think about cars and houses.
After all, this development must be done step by step. If the step is too big, it will easily lead to failure.
…………
At this time, while the players were still rejoicing about getting new skins, Jiang Yao discovered that something was wrong.
Because after the insect nest has been upgraded, its own perception is also very powerful.
As soon as he upgraded, he discovered the method left behind by the unknown civilization in the rock and soil civilization.
Needless to say, he immediately eliminated the means left by that mysterious civilization.
Originally he thought he would be safe after eliminating this method, but he never expected that just now.
The Hive discovered that a fleet was rapidly approaching him within three light years of it.
Although the number of this fleet is not large, the movement trajectory of this fleet is obviously aimed at him.
"Is that mysterious civilization coming?" Jiang Yao frowned a little at this point, but then he shook his head and rejected the idea.
"The direction of travel of this fleet is obviously from the Taylor 1 area.
Obviously, they went to Taylor No. 1 area but did not find themselves, and then came to Taylor No. 2 area. ”
"If it is really that mysterious civilization, then they will definitely come directly to the Taylor 2 area where they are, so this fleet should not be that mysterious civilization."
Thinking of this, Jiang Yao was also a little confused. "If they are not that mysterious civilization, then they may be a fleet of a stupid civilization in the universe that went out to explore."
However, if you think about it carefully, Jiang Yao definitely has a very low possibility of this. After all, this fleet is very purposeful, and it is obvious that it is well prepared.
Although he didn't figure out who this civilization was for a long time, he still responded immediately.
The next moment, the huge snake-shaped insect nest in the universe was seen moving, and it was seen flying towards the periphery of the planet.
At the same time, the players all flew out of the insect nest, ready for battle.
"My dear, this is like falling asleep and hitting the pillow."
"Yeah, I'm still thinking about shutting down the server immediately. There's no use for the skin I just bought.
As a result, the planner immediately arranged a wave of battles for us, allowing us to experience whether the new skin is easy to use. ”
"Hey, I have to say that I feel comfortable now. We will know soon how much the skin can be improved in actual combat."
While these players were still excited, Emperor Penguin couldn't help but remind him loudly: "Everyone, please be careful. This matter may not be as simple as we think."
"The commander just told us that this fleet may be related to that mysterious civilization, which means that their combat effectiveness is definitely not weak."
"So brothers, although everyone now has the blessing of skin, if you don't want to die miserably, you still have to be careful."
After hearing what Emperor Penguin said, everyone nodded.
At this time, Crossel Fleet No. 7 also appeared within the players' reconnaissance range.
These battleships appeared for a moment, and the players immediately realized that the situation was not good.
Just by looking at the leading battlecruiser, players know that the technological level of this civilization is definitely not too low.
Because this battleship makes players feel a strong sense of threat.
This is something they can't feel when they fight against Yongye or Taylor civilization.
Not only the leading battlecruiser, but also other battleships also gave players this feeling.
Needless to say, the technological level of these warships is many times higher than that of Taylor and Yongye.
At this time, inside the Crossel fleet, the fleet commander couldn't help but frown a little when looking at the projection of the insect swarm.
"Mechanical race?" He shook his head as he said, "No, it should be the Zerg race."
At this point, he became even more confused, "How can this Zerg have the products of technological civilization? And didn't the empire say that they have exterminated the Zerg?
And it is said that they also made a specimen of the Zerg Queen and put it on display in the Imperial Museum. ”
"Is it true that the Zerg Queen that was reported in the empire was resurrected, caused a scene in the museum, and escaped?"
Speaking of this, the fleet commander was a little unsure, but he immediately reported the information here to the headquarters.
After the headquarters received this information, the headquarters also suspected that the Zerg Queen might not be dead.
And they also suspected that the Zerg Queen was most likely here, so they immediately issued an order for the fleet commander to capture the Queen for their study. Although the total number of players now reaches 100,000, it is simply not worth mentioning to the elite fleet of Crossel Civilization.
The warships of the Crossel Civilization are divided into two categories. The first category is conventional combat warships. This type of warship is not weak in strength and has low fraud, so it is usually used in large-scale battles.
The second type is an elite formation similar to Fleet 7.
These formations perform resource searching and civilized cleanup tasks outside all year round.
Therefore, these battleships are the elite of the elite, although the cost of each battleship is dozens of times that of conventional battleships.
But its strength is much higher than that of conventional battleships.
After all, people can wipe out a relatively strong civilization with these five hundred battleships. This is definitely impossible without something.
So for them, although it is difficult to defeat the 100,000 bugs in front of them, it is not impossible.
After all, this is not the first time they have fought against the Zerg, so they still know the situation of the Zerg very well.
For them, there are only two types of Zerg that pose the greatest threat to them.
The first of these is the Corruptor, which is currently the strongest space combat unit known to the Zerg.
It is also the type of unit that they feel poses the greatest threat to them.
As for the second type, it is Leviathan, but this Leviathan and the others have only heard that there is such a military unit in the Zerg legend.
It is said that the Zerg sent a Leviathan during the war with the Empire, and that Leviathan caused a huge blow to the Empire.
However, the authenticity of this news has yet to be verified, and their eyes placed in the empire have not collected any information about Leviathan.
If Leviathan is included, they are actually afraid of the two arms of the Zerg. Apart from this, they are not afraid of the other arms of the Zerg at all.
Especially those like the Hydralisk Aliasaurus, they are not afraid at all.
Because it is difficult for these creatures to break through their defenses, let alone cause harm to them.
You must know that the war between civilizations boils down to the degree of civilization's understanding of matter.
Taking the most basic warship materials as an example, under normal circumstances, warships produced by low-level civilizations have very weak defense capabilities, and they rely on shields to fight.
The shield was their only means of defense. When the shield was broken, the battleship was not far away from the enemy.
Advanced civilizations have reached the ultimate understanding of matter and can synthesize materials with extremely exaggerated strength.
And the defense of the warship itself made of these materials is very amazing.
Even without relying on shields, they can take a lot of damage.
Therefore, for low-level civilizations, they only have shields to resist ships, while for high-level civilizations, they not only have shields to resist ships, but also armor to resist ships.
And for them, it has never been said that as long as you attack enough and the frequency is high enough, you can penetrate the armor of their warships.
If you don't understand matter to that level, you'll never be able to do any damage to their armor.
A very simple metaphor can help you understand the principle.
If the battleships of the Eternal Night Civilization and the Taylor Civilization were compared to a piece of paper, then you could easily pierce it with a bamboo stick.
So if you want to destroy their warships, you only need to break the shield protecting the warships and the problem will be solved.
But if you want to destroy the warships of the Crossel Civilization, you are like using this bamboo stick to pierce a steel plate dozens of centimeters thick.
Not to mention it was pierced, it would be difficult to leave marks on its body.
If you want to penetrate their warships, you can only wait until your material understanding reaches the same level as theirs and create higher-level materials. Then you can penetrate their warships.
Although among the Zerg, the Mutalisaurus barely reaches the level that can cause harm to them.
But this damage is minimal. If you want to penetrate it, you can only pile it up with quantity, and this quantity is massive.
As for the Hydralisks, they have not reached this level at all, and this is the confidence that the Crossel civilization can still face such a huge army of Zerg.
After receiving the order at this time, they directly took the initiative to attack the insect swarm.
At this time, the players watching their actions were dumbfounded.
"Oh my god, this civilization is very brave."
"Yes, five hundred versus one hundred thousand, they still dare to take the initiative. Is this civilization so stubborn?"
"What the hell, I'm really sorry for them if I don't teach him how to be a good person!"
The army of players who were shouting like this also moved towards Crossel's fleet.
And when the battle just started, the players finally understood why these hundreds of warships dared to attack them so stubbornly.
The strength of these battleships exceeds players' imagination.
Many Hydralisk players found that the spikes they fired bounced off the armor of these battleships.
This also surprised them.
"Holy crap! What's going on? Is the battleship on the opposite side so tough? My spikes can't even break through the defense."
"Your spikes are nothing. I have more than 200,000 alien dragons and they can't do any harm to them in one attack. This is outrageous!"
"Holy crap! It's not over yet. It took a lot of effort to do some damage, but it didn't take long for the wounds on the battleship to repair themselves."
"What the hell is this? The defense is so high and it has self-repair. I'm afraid it's going to go to heaven."
"Worri, the attacks of these warships are extremely fierce. One shot of my Hydralisk's health will be reduced to full health.
If my skin hadn't blocked some of the damage, I probably would have died on the spot. ”
"Wori, I can't beat him, I slipped away."
At this time, Xianyu, who saw all this, couldn't help but complain, "So I told you not to waste your time. You buy skins every day just to show off, without even looking at what these monsters are like."
< br>
"This is obviously a high-level monster. Compared with the low-level monsters you fought before, it is naturally not on the same level."
Speaking of this, Xianyu looked at everyone in the guild, "If you want to fight these high-level monsters, you need highly evolved troops. I just observed it carefully.
If you want to cause damage to these battleships, you need to at least reach the attack power of the alien dragon.
And even if you reach the attack power of an alien dragon, the damage you can do to them is minimal. ”
"It is currently known that the attack power of the basic Mutalisaurus is 1500, and this is also the basic defense breaking standard."
"If you want to break defense and cause good damage, your attack power needs to be at least 2000.
So, if you are a Hydralisk player, you need to evolve to the first stage of Hydralisk, and if you are a Velociraptor player, you need to evolve to at least the third stage of Velociraptor. ”
At this point, Xianyu shouted at everyone in the guild: "From now on, brothers who have met this requirement are ready to listen to my command and prepare to fight!"
At the same time, some other guilds immediately made the same reaction.
Unlike the individual players who attacked before, the guild players obeyed the orders during the battle.
Therefore, they will not move as long as the commander does not issue an attack order.
At this moment, Crossel's fleet commander couldn't help but sneer as he looked at the swarm of insects that were constantly attacking him but could not cause any damage.
"So what if you bugs are blessed with some mechas? It just allows your ground troops to fight in space.
If your attack power cannot be improved, then it is simply a dream to cause harm to us. ”
"If there were corruptors among you, I might still be afraid, but it's a pity that you don't."
Speaking of this, he suddenly discovered something.
"What kind of insect is this? When did this kind of insect appear in the insect swarm?
Not only that, except for this bug with huge eyes, there are many strange bugs in the swarm that I have never seen before. ”
As he spoke, he showed a trace of confusion, but he soon returned to normal, "Whatever, kill them first."
At this point, just as he was about to order a charge, the guild players began to take action.
When he saw the large army behind the insect swarm launching an attack, he actually didn't care much at first.
But when countless red-glowing spikes destroyed a cruiser in the fleet, he realized that something was wrong.
And before he could react, he saw several huge alien dragons attacking him, and then an incredible scene happened.
These giant mutant dragons covered with lava streaks can not only cause huge damage to their battleships, but also spit out blade insects.
What's even more terrifying is that these blade insects can cause secondary damage to them after they explode.
Under the attack of this alien dragon, their warship could not withstand a few attacks before being destroyed.
Of course, this is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is the attack of those creatures with huge eyes.
The light emitted by that creature could easily penetrate their battleship.
It’s not consumption bit by bit, but direct penetration!
Do you have any idea? This means that the attack power of that kind of insect has reached a very terrifying level.
When they wanted to kill this kind of bug, some bugs twice the size of them stood in front of these eyeworms.
Of course, the fleet commander didn't pay much attention to these bugs at first.
They are nothing more than cannon fodder.
But after they attacked, he realized that the situation was not good, because their attacks could not cause much damage to these bugs.
Although the main guns of their battlecruisers can cause greater damage to these bugs, the recovery ability of these bugs is really amazing.
He saw with his own eyes that the insects that were torn apart by their main attack only took less than a minute to recover.
This is outrageous!
What is the concept of resisting the main gun of a battlecruiser!
Now he said that he couldn't understand the insect swarm.
"What the hell is going on! What happened to these bugs?
Why has their strength changed so much in less than a hundred years! ”
At this time, looking at the warships in his fleet being sunk one by one, the commander also looked horrified.
Obviously the changes in these bugs have exceeded his imagination.
At this time, the commander also felt extremely regretful. If he had known earlier that these bugs had such fighting power.
Even if I beat myself to death, I would not do something as stupid as challenging one hundred thousand with five hundred.
It's a pity that nothing happened, and Crossel's fleet was submerged in the sea of insects.
Of course, the commander still sent the information about the insect swarm back to the headquarters before the battlecruiser was sunk.
Although this wave of fleets of the Crossel Civilization was seeking death, it still caused a lot of losses to the players.
Their firepower really shocked the players.
Even a unit of Hydralisk level is useless with one shot. If it doesn't wear armor, it's basically useless with one shot.
As for the alien dragons, these are slightly better, but not much better. Basically, they will be carried away directly after being shot four or five times.
