Chapter 425 The attack begins
At this time, after the players began to take action, the commanders on the empire side also began to make arrangements.
At this time, the commander of the empire's fleet immediately ordered the warships stationed at the Star Gate to rush here.
"The Star Gate is still some distance away from us, and normal navigation will take several hours."
"So we let them rush here now, the time is just right."
Having said this, the commander looked at the adjutant on the side and asked: "What is the current status of our garrison fleet?"
Upon hearing the commander's question, the adjutant quickly gave the commander an overview of the current situation.
"Because this area is quite special, our main battleships consumed a total of 30% of the energy during this period. Now the energy reserve of each battleship is about 70%."
< br>
The commander couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard what the adjutant said, "Thirty percent has been consumed in just a few months?"
The adjutant could only nod helplessly, "Because the situation here is much more complicated than we expected."
"First of all, the materials and rays contained in this area do not appear to be fundamentally different from the outside.
But in fact, these things are not as simple as they appear on the surface. These things are very strange. They can cause damage to our battleships, and the most important thing is that we cannot transform this substance. ”
"It is also for this reason that whether it is buildings, some planets, or meteorite fragments in this area, they will not be of any help to us, but will also bring us great hidden dangers."
< br>
"So during this period of time, our warships have used shields to resist some adverse factors from the outside world. This has also resulted in us consuming the warship's reserve energy during this period."
After hearing the adjutant's words, the commander couldn't help but frown.
"I have some understanding of the situation outside, but what I really didn't expect is that so much energy is consumed to resist these things."
The adjutant could only sigh helplessly, "Actually, according to normal consumption, we don't need to consume so much energy at all, but the environment here is very strange.
Our energy consumption was quite normal at first, but after staying here for a while, energy consumption began to gradually increase. ”
"Now, our daily energy consumption is nearly 10 times more than when we first came here."
The commander also nodded after hearing what the adjutant said. They had no way of understanding the environment here. After all, the level of civilization and technology that once existed here was much higher than theirs.
It is normal for them not to understand the methods of these advanced civilizations.
Thinking of this, the commander couldn't help but feel a little lucky, "But fortunately, we deciphered the ruins quickly enough.
Otherwise, if this energy consumption continues to increase, I estimate that by then there will be no need for insect swarms to attack us, and we ourselves may be wiped out by the environment here. "
Hearing the commander's words, the adjutant on the side also nodded in agreement, and while the two were still talking, the insect swarm had already appeared in their observation area.
At this time, the commander of the insect swarm looking at the sky could not help but frown, "It is just as I thought, the insect swarm was not greatly affected in such an environment."
"It looks like it may be a tough battle ahead."
Having said this, the commander immediately ordered the fleet to attack the insect swarm. While attacking, he also began to pay attention to the location of the support troops.
"There is still some time before the support troops arrive, so we can use this time to clean up as many of these bugs as possible.
Because of the special environment here, the fake bugs from the insect swarm cannot be used here, which actually reduced my combat pressure a lot. ”
"But now we still have to be careful about their self-banaling bugs. Once that kind of bug rushes into the fleet group, the damage it will cause to our fleet group will be devastating."
"We should disperse the fleet according to the previous method, but if we do this, I'm worried that the insect swarm will directly break through and rush into the ruins."
"It seems that we must speed up the progress of the exploration team in the ruins. Otherwise, when the insect swarm enters, all our efforts during this period will be in vain."
In this way, the commander was directing the battle while analyzing the current situation. Now they were only one step away from success, so at this juncture he had to be careful to ensure nothing went wrong.
But at this moment, he suddenly discovered that something seemed wrong with the situation over the insect swarm.
"This is it?" He said as he looked at the swarm of insects in the projection with a puzzled look on his face.
"The opponent's general numbers are comparable, but only those giant beasts of the opponent did not appear on the battlefield."
"Could it be that the other party has hidden the giant beast and wants to catch us off guard at the critical moment?" At this point, he immediately shook his head and rejected his idea.
"No, the possibility of this is very low. There are no bunkers in the area where I am currently that can block the figures of some giant beasts. In other words, as long as they appear here, they will definitely be discovered. ”
"So the sneak attack tactic does not make any sense, but the problem lies here. Since the sneak attack tactic is not feasible, in such a battle, what is the point of sending the giant beasts away? Or are they preparing again? What?”
At this point, the commander seemed to have thought of something, "Teleportation? If my sneak attack fails, then they can use that teleportation technology."
Having said this, it shows that the commander is not sure about this situation. "We have analyzed their teleportation technology. This technology has the same effect as jumping technology."
“Essentially, this technology can be understood as a scaled-down version of the jump engine. Although we don’t know how the swarm achieves this, since it is this technology, it must have certain requirements for the space environment. ”
"But in the space environment here, there is a high probability that they will not be able to use this technology, or even if they can use it, there will be many restrictions."
"So it is basically impossible to use teleportation technology, and the only one in the entire insect swarm that can use this technology is the giant Thunder Beast. Next, I only need to keep an eye on that Thunder Beast. Once that When the Thunder Beast appears, it will immediately focus the fire.”
At this time, while the commander was still thinking about these things, a shield wall composed of dense small insects suddenly appeared in the distance and flew towards them.
And the moment he saw this small shield wall, he immediately guessed that those giant beasts were most likely hiding behind this wall.
He also knows about this special kind of bug. Compared with those small fighting locusts, these bugs are a lot larger than those fighting locusts, and the most important thing is that they have very terrifying defenses. ability. Normally, the insect swarm will use this insect as a means of defense, attaching to other combat bugs to improve their own defense.
At this time, they used it as a shield wall to create conditions for the large-scale troops to advance. The commander was not surprised at all by the insect's operation.
Because they had thought about how the insect swarm might adopt such a routine when they were studying this insect before.
"Although the defense capabilities of this kind of bug are strong enough, it is a pity that you are not qualified to withstand the attack of nearly a million warships!"
At this point, the commander gave an order for all the warships to collectively turn on the insect wall.
At this time, as his order was issued, all the warships immediately began to execute it. When the players on the front line saw the opponent's actions, they knew that this was a good time to charge. So the swarm of insects fighting in the front immediately started to move towards with all their strength. The empire's fleet rushed over.
And all this was seen by the commander, "It was a good plan, using the insect shield to attract my attention, and then create opportunities for your frontline troops to break through."
"But have you ever thought about how much time you have to advance when faced with the concentrated fire of so many battleships?"
Having said this, the commander immediately set his sights on the insect wall. For him, he only needed to defeat the insect wall in a short time, and then get rid of the powerful units hiding behind. Then This time they basically won.
For him, the biggest threat is those giant beasts, because the damage caused by those giant beasts to them is very exaggerated.
Especially if they are in scattered positions like they are now, if they are approached by a giant beast under such circumstances, the scattered area will become an excellent harvesting ground for the giant beast.
Therefore, he must find a way to deal with the enemy's behemoth first. It is not difficult to deal with the enemy's behemoth. He only needs to use one routine, which is to focus fire directly.
If you want to directly focus the fire, you can still kill them instantly, but usually the insect swarm will not give you this opportunity.
Especially when fighting in a group, the swarm will deliberately protect these giant beasts, which will cause a very embarrassing problem.
Even if they want to focus their fire, many times their attacks will be partially blocked by other bugs, giving the giant beasts time to escape.
Therefore, in previous battles, their killing rate against the behemoths of the swarm was very low. But now for this commander, this strategy of the swarm undoubtedly created a way for him to kill these behemoths. Chance.
Those defensive bugs provide only minimal damage compared to the Corruptors, so as long as those defensive bugs are dealt with, then focusing on their behemoths can basically clean them out.
At this time, he also knew very well that after he cleared these giant beasts, the enemy's frontline troops would definitely rush into their fleet group, but it didn't matter even if they did.
Because in a fierce battle at close range, they are no weaker than the corruptors of the insect swarm.
Therefore, the losses on both sides are basically the same, but without the help of those giant beasts, when their support troops arrive, the insect swarm will basically be here.
And because of the special environment here, the insect swarm cannot escape even if it wants to.
Just like this, under the commander's gaze, he saw that the small bugs that made up the shield wall were being cleared away at an extremely fast speed.
And this city wall became thinner and thinner with the attacks of these warships. When the commander saw this scene, he couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"I'm thinking that the bugs may not have thought that I would abandon their frontline troops and choose to attack these giant beasts."
"It is a good way to let the giant beasts break through in this way, but unfortunately in our eyes, your giant beasts are more valuable to kill than those corruptors on the front line."
"If we want to kill these behemoths of yours, what will happen even if all our warships here are destroyed?"
"As long as there is no Thunder Beast, you will not have any advantage in the subsequent battles, and after such a long battle.
We can basically confirm that that level of Ultralisk must be a special case, and you cannot produce it on a large scale. We can even say that it is a unique mutation of your insect swarm. ”
"As long as this mutated thunder beast is dealt with, you will have no advantage in dealing with us in the future."
The commander who had made up his mind in this way stared closely at the shield wall of the insect swarm. At this time, the shield wall of the insect swarm was getting weaker and weaker. Countless insects on the edge began to gather towards the center point, hoping to support it for a while longer. .
But everything they did was in vain for the commander in front of them.
"It's useless, unless you have ten times or a hundred times more power, it may support you to rush here, but it is a pity that you are not very prepared to defend against insects."
In this way, under the commander's gaze, this huge insect wall became smaller and smaller.
At this moment, the commander seemed to realize that something was wrong.
"What's going on? If all the giant beasts of the opponent are hidden behind the insect wall, we should be able to see the giant beasts with the current size of the insect wall."
"But why can't I see it now?"
At this time, the commander was staring at the increasingly smaller insect wall with a furrowed brow, and had a vague feeling of bad premonition in his heart.
And just when he was still thinking about this problem, the next moment, he saw the one-eyed giant beast and many thunder beasts appearing in the area where they were at the same time.
"What!" Looking at the sudden appearance of these giant beasts, the commander couldn't help but widen his eyes. It was obvious that he knew that he had made a mistake.
First of all, he could confirm that his previous guess was correct. The insect swarm's teleportation technology was also interfered with in this environment.
But even under the interference, the insect swarm still successfully completed the transmission.
Looking at everything in front of him, combined with his previous guesses about the insect swarm, the commander seemed to understand something.
The first is this routine about the enemy.
He had thought before that the enemy might use this technology in such an environment, but because this technology would be hindered in such an environment, they would definitely not use it as smoothly as in previous battles. .
