I Am the Swarm

Facing the oncoming intensive artillery fire, the swarm troops did not turn around to avoid it as the Rickon tribe thought. Instead, the entire cluster shrank inward, using the Taikoo flying at the forefront as a physical shield, and forcibly withstood this wave of attacks.

Due to the narrow formation and an irregular cylindrical shape as a whole, the area under attack is actually extremely limited.

Of the 5,000 Taikoo-class, in this round of volley, only the 200-300 Taikoo-class at the front were seriously injured. However, their broken bodies were still surrounded by the entire swarm, continuing to serve as human shields to resist the second round of attacks.

This scene fell into the eyes of the Rickens.

"It's a terrible civilization!" Just imagine, if they were in the face of artillery fire, would they be able to stand in front of the fleet without hesitation?

It's hard!

There is not only the commander on the battleship, but also many soldiers and crew members. Even if the captain wants to sacrifice the entire ship, it is hard to say whether his orders can be carried out in the face of life and death.

This is a moment of lightning and flint, and the fighter plane is fleeting. If there is a slight delay, this formation cannot be achieved.

But looking back at the insect swarm, the Primordial class standing in the front did not hesitate at all. Hundreds of Primordial class moved in unison and completed the formation change in an instant.

This amazed the Riken tribe who didn't know the specific shape of the swarm. This kind of cohesion and execution, in their view, was too terrifying.

"What are they going to do?"

After being amazed, the Rickens expressed their incomprehension of the behavior of the swarm army, and they did not know what the swarm wanted to do.

"They are heading towards Lazer Star! Are they going to make an emergency landing on Lazer Star?"

"Stupid! They are asking for their own death!"

Indeed, for the Rikens, it is difficult for large ships to take off and land freely on the planet. The mutual gravitational force makes it necessary for large warships to have quite powerful engine power to complete this operation.

However, when breaking away from the strong gravitational force, it will cause certain damage to the hull itself. If you want a warship that can take off and land freely, then the overall structure of the hull needs to be rewritten.

All the large battleships of the Rickon tribe were assembled directly in space, and the hull structure did not consider the situation of facing strong gravity.

If it is the kind of satellite whose gravity is not strong, their battleship can also consider landing directly on the surface. The Krazer star is a planet with a very strong gravitational force. Facing it, the Riken warships can only stay in the orbit of the planet, and do not have the ability to take off and land freely on it.

Based on their own experience, the Riken tribe thought that the commander of the swarm army might have his mind squeezed through the crack of the door. Once the army descended, it would be difficult to fly again.

"Be careful that they may be a cover-up, feint a shot!"

"I agree."

Many commanders agree with this statement, the swarm army may make a sharp turn when approaching Lazer Star, bypassing Lazer Star. In this way, with the help of Lazer Star's occlusion, they can avoid being besieged. At that time, they only need to withstand the firepower of the land-based cannons on the back of Lazer Star to stand out from the encirclement.

There may be heavy losses, but the entire army will not be wiped out.

At this time, the second round of fire coverage of Star Lazer had arrived, and the hundreds of Primordial-class ones standing in the front had already suffered more injuries after resisting this round of attack.

The most serious ones have even been evaporated by the high temperature, all the strains in their bodies were destroyed, and they died completely. This was the first time a Swarm Primordial had been killed by conventional weapons in the war with the Rickon.

During the third round of firepower from the Rickens, the firing angle had been adjusted, and all the artillery fire was concentrated and shot at the front of the swarm troops. If this round of artillery fire was exhausted, it might be possible to destroy the only Taikoo class in front.

It's just that this kind of good thing can be thought about. Sarah and other blades are not fools. The swarm troops suddenly dispersed, giving way to the area where the concentrated shooting was concentrated, and then scattered and rushed towards Lazer Star.

When the fourth round of artillery scattered and covered, the swarm troops gathered together again.

Since then, the ground-based artillery group has tried various attack methods. For example, although it is a cover attack, the places where the swarm troops gather will be taken care of.

But this is still not a problem for the swarm troops. After they get out of the range of the key strike, they gather around them into several "slender" cylindrical formations.

In such a confrontation, after more than a dozen rounds of artillery fire, the swarm troops did not make a big turn as the Rikens thought, but went straight to Lazer Star, and had already reached the low-earth orbit of Lazer Star. Just one step away from the surface.

The swooping Archaic cluster suddenly ejected a large number of adults and larvae from the inside out.

In the artillery attack just now, the insect swarm lost a total of thousands of Taikoo-class. The original number was more than 5,000, but now there are only more than 3,000 left. In just a few tens of minutes, the loss is more than a hundred times that of the previous ten days of fierce fighting.

But at this moment, the small space octopuses transported in the body were released, and their number expanded dozens of times in a blink of an eye.

The sight of hundreds of thousands of space octopuses swooping down was extremely spectacular, and the 30,000 land-based cannons fell into difficulty in choosing for a while, and they didn't know which one to choose as the target.

With such a delay, the swarm troops got closer. After two rounds of hasty firing from the land-based cannons, they had already lost their best shooting angle.

The land-based cannons approached by the space octopuses were extremely clumsy. Facing the flexible space octopuses, their barrels had no time to adjust.

In the face of immobile land-based cannons, only a space octopus above the adult level can destroy them with an electromagnetic cannon fired at close range.

Although some close-in defense guns were also deployed on the surface of the planet, facing the huge army of swarms, it was a drop in the bucket, and it was impossible to prevent their destruction.

The Liken tribe did not expect this kind of situation. According to their thinking, in this case, escape must be the main way. Although the Zerg troops made an emergency landing on Lazer Star and seemed to have destroyed the land-based cannons, they completely lost hope of escape.

This kind of operation made the Liken tribe a little confused.

However, even if the vanguard of the swarm was wiped out, the Rickens would feel a little uncomfortable. Although those land-based cannons were just dead objects and mass products from the assembly line, it would take a long time to deploy so many.

According to the current destruction speed of the swarm, before they completely wiped out the swarm troops, there might not be a few land-based cannons left. Before the follow-up troops of the swarm arrive again, it is definitely impossible to restore the above arrangement.

After this war, Star Lazer will be useless, and can no longer be a nail that sticks into the marching route of the swarm.

In the short term, annihilating a leading force will be a small loss in the long run.

But this is still the unilateral wishful thinking of the Liken people.

They don't understand the life form of the swarm at all, so they naturally feel that it is unreasonable to exchange life for some dead things. But this kind of thing is just a routine operation for the swarm.

Even if the exchange is really like this, a nail can be pulled out, no matter how you look at the swarm, it is not a loss.

Not to mention, things are far from being as simple as they seem.
