Chapter 417 The attack begins
As for the Latu civilization, as a civilization with an independent consciousness, although with the support of the empire, their technological level has advanced very quickly.
And with the protection of the empire, they usually don't need to worry about their own safety.
But they are also very dependent on the empire. In order to obtain more technology and obtain the protection of the empire, they have to complete a series of tasks arranged by the empire.
It is even said that sometimes in order to complete this task, one's own civilization will be put in danger, like now.
Because their battleships were almost completely lost in the previous battle, and now the players attacked again.
So when the Latu civilization's detector discovered that the insect swarm was approaching, the entire civilization fell into panic.
At this time, their first thought was to ask the empire for help.
They sent countless messages to the Empire, telling the Empire that the zerg swarms were coming to attack them.
Perhaps if they encountered such a thing in the past, the message they sent would get a reply from the empire, but unfortunately, the empire itself is not in a very good condition now.
So the empire chose to ignore their pleas for help.
In fact, the empire also knows very well why players choose to attack here at this time, because they know that they will definitely send a large number of troops to garrison that area.
After sending so many troops to garrison, and considering the security of the homeland, it is absolutely impossible for them to risk supporting other civilizations.
Because they did not have their own support, they had only the fate of being wiped out when facing the insect swarm.
Of course, the empire also knows that the players intend to develop and grow through war and war in this way.
But even though they knew what the players were thinking, they didn't step in to stop it.
Because now they need time, and when the players attack them, the battleships they retain can still block the players' attack.
To be precise, it shouldn't be the players, it should be the players together with other civilizations.
Because the message Jiang Yao released to the entire universe was not only captured by other civilizations, but also captured by the empire.
Although they were furious with the swarm's shameless behavior, there was nothing they could do about it. The battlefield was like this, and sometimes people didn't necessarily have to fight you head-on.
As long as it can defeat you, no matter whether this method is glorious or not, it is a good method.
Therefore, as soon as it received the information, the empire immediately adopted defensive tactics.
The empire closed all the more important transportation hubs and gathered all the remaining warships in civilization together in order to withstand the enemy's attack in the final line of attack and defense.
In fact, according to the current statistics of the empire, even if the civilizations that have enmity with him unite to attack him, he can withstand it.
After all, the battlefield is in his base camp, where he has many complete defense systems, through which he can block the enemy.
There are still some battleships left on the outside. With the cooperation of the two, it should not be a big problem to block the intruders from outside or completely destroy them.
And the most important thing is that these civilizations are very afraid of each other, which means that it is absolutely impossible for them to unite.
This undoubtedly reduced the pressure on the empire. In fact, under normal circumstances, it would be too easy for the empire to withstand these attacks.
But as luck would have it, the insect swarm also came over and began to attack their affiliated civilization.
In fact, he is not too afraid of other civilized empires. The only thing he is afraid of is this insect swarm. First of all, the strength of this insect swarm itself is not weak. The combat power of their main battle units is no worse than their battleships.
The second most critical thing is that this group of Zerg has a variety of technologies in their hands.
And this is what the empire is really afraid of. This race is no better than other races. Everything they have is for war.
Take the Corruptor, for example. In addition to improving its own defense and survivability, the only thing left is offense. Let's talk about Banelings, although this kind of insect has a very single ability.
But it is undeniable that the lethality it can cause is terrifying.
And this is where this group of bugs is powerful.
Although other civilizations may not be able to see anything fishy in the insect swarm, the empire can.
Take the baneling bug as an example. The dark matter energy it produces after the explosion can be said to increase the application rate of the entire energy to more than 90%.
The energy usage rate feels a bit incredible compared to the empire.
After all, the empire's most advanced equipment could only use 85% of this energy, which was a full five percentage points lower than the banelings.
This is what is most difficult for the Empire to accept. The final result of their huge equipment is not as efficient as the energy utilization of such a small baneling.
From a certain perspective, the evolution of this creature has exceeded their technological level.
This is the most worrying thing, because the empire cannot confirm whether this group of bugs will evolve again and gain more powerful abilities, and the most important thing is that this group of bugs is different from the previous bugs.
This group of bugs uses all kinds of tricks, which are completely different from the previous fighting methods of bugs.
In addition to having such a powerful strength, he also has such combat capabilities. These two points alone are enough to make the empire feel troublesome.
And the strange thing about these bugs is that among all the tactics, what they like to do most is all kinds of dirty tricks, such as attracting other civilizations or doing other things. In short, they will do whatever it takes to win.
Although the bugs in the past would sacrifice a lot to win, most of them would compete with you on the frontal battlefield. Unlike this group of bugs, not only are they powerful, they will not fight you head-on.
In every battle, the routine is the main one and the front is supplemented. The purpose is to use various advantages to reduce one's casualties.
You must know that a group with strong reproductive ability and strength is also very careful.
When these few points are combined, it is very difficult to defeat this ethnic group even if it is as powerful as the empire. It is as if these bugs are starting to make trouble right under their noses.
Although he was very close to them, he did not dare to act.
Because God knows what tricks these bugs have waiting for you, and the most important thing is that warships from other civilizations are also coming here one after another.
This also means that once you send troops out, it will be a big problem if warships from other civilizations take this opportunity to attack you. After all, since people dare to send warships here, they will inevitably conduct an investigation here in advance, and only send warships after confirming the information they want.
Therefore, the empire is sure that there are countless pairs of eyes hidden in its own area. They are all staring at themselves closely. Once they reveal any flaws, they will take action without mercy.
In fact, the empire also felt very aggrieved when faced with the current situation.
You must know that no matter how bad he is, he is still one of the best civilizations in the universe. Under normal circumstances, no civilization dares to play like this on his side, but now because of these bugs, these civilizations dare to shit on his head. .
There was nothing they could do about it. The defeats in several consecutive large-scale battles caused them heavy losses.
But for them now, it is very normal for such losses to occur. They have been in high positions for a long time and have forgotten that being cautious can keep you alive.
And arrogance or arrogance will get you killed.
From the first few battles, if the empire had been careful, it would have been impossible for them to suffer such huge losses. However, it was a pity that they thought they were very powerful from the beginning, and no civilization was their opponent.
Of course, such cognitions are not developed overnight. These cognitions have been developed over thousands of years.
In the past wars, they were invincible, and all civilizations were easily torn apart by them. The long-term victory made them gradually lose themselves.
For many fleet commanders, those enemies are easy for them to crush.
Of course this is also true.
It was also because of this reason that after they faced off against the insect swarm, they naturally brought this idea into it, so they lost the first battle, and the second battle was even more funny.
After that strange creature appeared, the battleship commander's first reaction was not to retreat immediately and send the battleship to find out the situation of the creature, but to choose to kill these creatures directly.
This is arrogance. He thought it was too easy to destroy these creatures, but when he did so, he discovered the tragedy.
Because the strength of this creature was far beyond his expectation, by this time he realized that the situation was wrong and it was too late to retreat.
Because their civilization flagship has long been interfered with by this creature's anti-jump, in this case they have only one choice, and that is to defeat the enemy.
But don't forget that the insect swarm was also near you at that stage. The commander even guessed that the insect swarm had eyes following him, but he still made that decision based on the quality.
The price they paid after making this decision was heavy, especially at the last moment when the insect swarm entered and started a three-party war again.
Their losses in this wave were even greater, and the most critical thing was that in order to allow civilization to escape with its flagship, they directly sacrificed other warships.
This is the price of their arrogance, and the consequences of this price are still continuing. Their subordinate civilization is also paying for their previous arrogant behavior.
At this time, inside the Latu civilization, watching the dense swarms of insects rushing towards this side, the entire Latu civilization fell into panic. They tried their best to resist these insects, and they desperately called for help, but to no avail.
The messages they sent to the empire seemed to have fallen into the sea without any reply. With no reply for such a long time at such a distance, the people of Latu Civilization had already guessed that they might have been abandoned by the empire.
Seeing that the empire's path was unworkable, they could only use the various defense facilities in their hands to deal with the insect swarms, but it was obvious that they underestimated the combat capabilities of the insect swarms.
In terms of space power, they gave it to the swarm to easily solve it. Then the swarm sent a lot of ground troops to start cleaning up their ground units.
And what they don't know is that if the insect swarm hadn't wanted to obtain their information, these insects would have used some weapons of mass destruction on the entire planet to directly destroy the planet, instead of sending a group of ground combat units over. Ink slowly.
Of course, there are still many things he doesn't know, but whether he knows these things is meaningless to him.
Because after the insects in the sky cleared their various space combat units and defense facilities, they flew towards their home planet in a mighty manner.
The people in Latu looked at the huge insects flying towards them in the distance. They were helpless and had no choice but to raise their weapons and fight against the insect swarm.
But facing the huge Corruptor, these people seemed too small.
The attacks with various weapons in their hands are as indistinguishable as tickling the corrupted ones.
A casual attack from the Corruptor can wipe out a large area of them.
Those huge aerial cities full of sci-fi feel, the Corruptor can destroy them with just one strike.
The special liquid sprayed by the Corruptor covered the city and began to corrupt the city crazily.
After it finished corrupting the city, the remaining liquid fell into the earth and began to corrupt the ground. It didn't take long for a bottomless pit to appear on the ground.
All in all, every blow of the Corruptor can leave very conspicuous traces on the planet. This is the power of the space arms.
Although this level of arms does not have much effect on warships of the same level, once the target is changed to something else, its terrifying and destructive power can be seen immediately.
Corruptors in various locations on the planet are destroying the planet wantonly.
In just a few hours, this planet has become riddled with holes. This is truly riddled with holes.
The special liquid sprayed by the Corruptor can easily corrode to the core of the earth.
Therefore, every attack by an incubator can cause irreparable damage to the entire planet, and players have a lot of incubators.
In this way, under the attack of the players, in just a few hours, the planet finally began to fall apart due to too much corruption.
Just like a balloon filled with water being popped instantly, the water inside spilled to the ground.
The disintegrated fragments of this planet began to slowly fly towards the sun, and this planet was also finished.
The players also successfully obtained the coordinates of the next location, which is the coordinates of Latu's resource mining galaxy.
The players who got the coordinates immediately set off towards the area where the coordinates were located without stopping.
At the same time, players in other areas saw how smoothly the attack in this area was going, and they began to take action.
As the players started to act one by one, one civilization after another began to suffer. After they cleaned up these civilizations, they got the resource coordinates and immediately went there to collect resources.
