I Am the Swarm

Chapter 316 Rickon's Glory

Although it has been more than ten years since the last battle to defend Lazer Star, in that war, the Riken tribe also harvested a lot of experimental samples of swarm combat units.

But until now, they still haven't unlocked that lock.

So, they still don't have a good idea for these creeping purple-gray patches.

"Launch Rickon's Glory!" The fleet commander and the staff had an urgent discussion, but in the end they could only choose the old method.

Rickon's glory is the modified version of the nuclear bomb, which means that it shines like a light and protects the Rickon tribe.

They are also the most powerful weapons of the Riken tribe so far, and they are also weapons with huge hidden dangers.

"Hey, although it is a dose of poison, it can solve the urgent need."

Every time "Rikon's Glory" explodes, it is equivalent to broadcasting coordinate information to the surrounding galaxies.

With such frequent use, if there is a civilization with a certain level of technology around it, it can be guessed that a war is breaking out here. And it can roughly infer the technological level of the two sides in the war. A confident fisherman may take action.

"No way, if we don't solve them quickly, we will be attacked!"

In a war between civilizations, if the technological level of the two sides is not much different, the attacker will suffer a lot.

For example, in this current battlefield, the Riken tribe, as the passive guard, has the home court advantage. Not only has a large number of fortifications been built in advance, but you can also use Lazer Star as a cover, and you can attack, evade, and switch defenses very flexibly.

Moreover, there is an entire galaxy as logistical support, and a steady stream of supplies are delivered from within the galaxy.

On the other hand, the attacking insect swarm has no geographical advantages at all, and logistical supplies are also very troublesome. If it weren't for the special shape of the swarm, perhaps the consumption of the Riken tribe on the way from the outer system to the planet Lazer would have dragged down the entire army.

Back then, the Rickens only thought that there was a weak civilization lurking in the Proxima galaxy, and they went there with the idea of ​​colonization, and dispatched 315 battleships, but the number of transportation ships has reached 164.

If it is a change of thinking to fight a tough battle, perhaps the number of transport ships will be several times that of battleships.

This is the expedition configuration of a normal civilization.

However, although the Zerg Swarm also has troop transport units, it seems that there are no supply units. This is what the Rickon tribe has always been puzzled about. If you don't understand the key points, you can't make some consumption-oriented solutions in a targeted manner.

Closer to the point, if the swarm occupies Lazer Star at this time, the positions of the two sides in this offensive and defensive battle will change instantly.

The swarm became the defensive side, and the Rickens became the offensive side instead.

Regardless of where the food and clothing of the swarm troops are hidden, but by analyzing the firing frequency of their electromagnetic cannons before, it can be inferred that the swarm must need supplies.

Then, with the swarm troops relying on Lazer Star, they can get some logistical improvements and some changes in tactics.

Although the Rickens don't know much about the swarm so far, they can foresee that with the swarm at the logistics base, at least they will be much more generous in launching electromagnetic cannons.

The swarm troop without logistical supplies still looks fierce, but maybe in a few hours, they won't be able to maintain this high-intensity shooting.

At that point, the Swarm may only be forced to retreat to the asteroid belts in the outer reaches of the system to resupply. However, if the main fleet retreats, the insect swarm will not only lose the Primordial class that served as a meat shield in vain, but also the hundreds of thousands of larvae trapped by the metal fiber net, and even those adults and larvae that have rushed to the front, Nor can it be taken back.

After losing so many combat units to the swarm, it will take a long time to organize the next round of war. And these times will give the Riken people a chance to breathe, if they are allowed to develop and improve several targeted weapons. Then, fighting back to the home of the swarm is no longer a dream.

But all of this is based on the fact that Star Lazer cannot be lost.

Therefore, the top leaders of the Rickon clan would rather blow up Lazer than let the swarm occupy it.

However, the Rickens don't have the means to destroy the planet now. They can only try their best to clean up the swarm forces on Lazer. Even if they blow up all their bases and turn them into a neutral unit, it is acceptable.

The huge "Riken Shining" with a length of 35 meters and a diameter of nearly 8 meters attacked again, turning the purple gray plates into oceans of light. The violent energy flow generated by the explosion formed a huge EMP field, which paralyzed many Riken facilities that were not well protected, and even some functional ships far away in planetary orbits were affected to varying degrees.

The battleship is protected from damage because of its special protection.

The familiar scene reappeared, and the purple-gray plaques were removed piece by piece, leaving a smooth semicircular pothole with extremely high temperature in place.

But what worried the Rickon tribe was that the deployment of the swarm on Lazer this time was beyond imagination. The purple-gray plaque did not stop spreading after being hit like last time.

Each smooth pothole was accompanied by more purple-gray patches elsewhere.

As a strategic deterrent weapon, "Ricon's Glory" is extremely troublesome to manufacture, maintain, and maintain, and there are not many of them. The last time the Rickens blew up hundreds of them on Lazer, they had exhausted their previous inventory.

Even after more than ten years, the preparation of "Ricon's Glory" has not stopped for a while, so far there are only less than 2,000 pieces in stock. Because some were deployed in the "Civil and Military Double Star" defense circle and the parent star defense circle, only more than 1,200 pieces were deployed in the defense system of Lazer Star this time.

If this trend continues, "Riken's Glory" will be exhausted first.

Moreover, as more and more "little suns" light up, the environment on Lazer is getting worse and worse. Even the cannon base that has not been attacked is basically shut down under the powerful EMP magnetic field.

The situation is very pessimistic.

"Hey, let's bring back our left-behind personnel on Lazer first." Khamis sighed.

The powerful electronic pulse has greatly affected the operation of the base on Lazer Star. Although the base itself has been protected against this and the life support system is still working normally, it is difficult not to guarantee that there will be problems if the bombing continues like this.

Moreover, the swarm's attack did not stop for a while, maybe they would break into the base in the next moment. Now that the defense system of Star Lazer has basically fallen, there is no need to stay behind.

"It's too late. Our small transport ships can't withstand this level of electronic pulses, and large transport ships can't approach the surface of the planet. Those Ricons can only ask for luck."

"It's better to send a message and let them save themselves as much as possible. As long as we continue to hold on for half a day, the other side may not be able to hold on." But this kind of thinking, Khamis himself feels that there is no bottom line.

Thank you for the reward of 1500 starting coins for every meeting in a foreign land.
