I Am the Swarm

The large chunks of metal debris orbiting Lazer's star were quickly concentrated. Small pieces of debris are also cleared by large numbers of larvae. Those larvae that have just been released from the fiber net are hanging up in this battle, with almost no loss of energy, so it is suitable to do some trivial things at this time.

These railguns are basically huge monsters with a length, width, and height of tens of meters or even hundreds of meters. In addition to the large number, they are piled up to form huge metal mountains.

In addition to the wreckage of the orbital cannon, there are also a large number of warship wrecks floating in space. This time, the Riken tribe lost their wife and lost their troops. Not to mention casualties, in the last few rounds of attacks alone, nearly 300 warships were directly blown up. Self-destructing, the number exceeds 500.

This caused the number of main battleships of the Riken tribe to drop by 2,000 again.

And if it wasn't for the early damage, the warship withdrew from the battlefield first. In addition, when Star Lazer was bombarded by "Rickon's Glory", those functional ships left the main battlefield because they couldn't defend against strong electromagnetic pulses, and evacuated first when they found that the battle was unfavorable.

Then the number of ships lost by the Liken tribe may be increased by several percent.

But even if there are only these, the wreckage of warships that have been dragged back one after another and the piled up metal mountains are not inferior to those mountains of rail gun wreckage.

You must know that the smallest battleship of the Riken clan has a captain of more than a kilometer, which is a real giant.

After most of the wreckage was concentrated, some larvae pounced on it and turned into creep seeds. Soon, purple-gray fleshy tissue crawled out from the gaps in the wreckage, and quickly multiplied.

The mountain of metal debris is slowly covered in purple-gray, and they are re-decomposed into metal elements after being corroded and absorbed by the creep. After that, the Taikoo class stepped forward one after another, stretching out their arms and legs to connect with the creeper, supplementing the war losses.

The swarm seemed to have lost a lot this time, but it was negligible compared to the loss in the first offensive and defensive battle on Star Lazer. Except for those Primordial Level ones used as assault tanks, the rest are basically not completely dead.

Without the help of external force, they only need to float in space for ten or twenty years, and they will recover again. If there is external help, the recovery speed will be faster.

As for the depleted larvae and adults, even if they die, the remaining body tissues can help other swarm units to speed up their recovery. Moreover, these cannon fodder-level combat units for space warfare only need to occupy a radiation source, and after spending some time and cost, they will be continuously produced.

The Rickon galaxy is the same as the origin galaxy, but there is a gaseous planet like a huge power bank in the system.

Now that there is Lazer Star as the frontline base, I believe that the swarm will march towards the gaseous planet in a short time.

The war with the alien race failed again, causing the Rickon tribe to fall into a great panic. If it weren't for the wartime situation at this time, the change of the main general would not have a good impact, maybe Khamis and the others would have gone to the staff office to drink tea like Masai.

After the victory of the first offensive and defensive battle on Lazer Star, the Liken tribe invested a lot of resources in Lazer Star, so that the construction of the "civil and military" double-star defense circle and the parent star defense circle stagnated.

Originally, it was thought that it would be possible to complete all their efforts in one battle, completely resisting the swarm of insects outside Lazer Star.

Moreover, a variety of weapons and equipment newly added to the regular sequence have also achieved good results, and the unit combination of the insect swarm is perfectly restrained. Everything was going well at first, and everyone thought that this offensive and defensive battle would be won again, and even the process of the celebration banquet and the invitation of guests began to be discussed on the home planet of Rickon.

Unexpectedly, the situation took a turn for the worse. In just half a day's work, not to mention the victory that was about to be obtained, the defense line of Lazer Star was also lost, and the battleship suffered heavy losses.

Until now, the Rickens still haven't figured out how the swarm hid so many troops on Lazer.

This is so abnormal.

All the patrol records, surveillance videos, mission reports, etc. of the previous Lazer star defense line, and even the extrasolar meteorite belt, were dug out, and more than one million think tanks and staff officers analyzed them frame by frame day and night.

But nothing abnormal was found.

"It's impossible for the Zerg to have such advanced technology that they could transport so many combat units to Planet Lazer and hide them from us."

"Ha, are you still dreaming? Now the fact is, they did."

"You mean that there is something wrong with our work?"

"Then who knows?"

"Want to fight?"

"Do you want to do it because you can't make sense? But who is afraid of whom? Come!"

"Shut up!" Speaker Antonio also had some headaches as he was about to stage a full-scale military action. Although these senior military personnel are already in important positions, they are still very enthusiastic about resolving disputes by force, which has made Antonio, who was a politician, still unable to adapt.

Antonio can also be regarded as the pioneer of the Rickon tribe. When he first came to power, he encountered the defeat of the Rickon Expeditionary Force in the Proxima Galaxy. This changed the position of the speaker from a hot spot to a hot potato. However, under the leadership of Antonio, he successfully resisted the invasion of the swarm when his three-term term was about to expire, and won the first battle to defend Star Lazer. , The experience is very legendary.

But the more legendary thing is yet to come. Antonio is a very capable Rickon. During his tenure, taking advantage of the alien race's eye-catching eyes, he vigorously reformed and gradually took over the military and political power through various methods such as wooing and suppressing. , becoming one of the most powerful Rikens in the history of the Riken tribe.

As a result, when its three-term speaker expired, with the momentum of successfully resisting the invasion of foreign races, the Riken tribe was transitioned from a federal parliamentary system to a military-controlled government. As the chairman of the wartime speaker, there was no such thing as a resignation. Since then, the forces that had hindered him in the life-prolonging potion were also secretly divided and suppressed by him, and his power expanded day by day.

Time flies, and until now, he is still the most powerful person of the Ricken tribe.

Therefore, the words of Antonio, who was sitting at the highest position in the parliament, were very effective. The situation of the imminent armed force was suppressed, and the meeting process became normal.

After all, the Liken tribe is a high-level intelligent civilization. The elites born out of a population of tens of billions are not just for nothing. With little by little clues, two theories gradually took shape.

The first theory is that the swarms had been laid out on Lazer a long time ago. This is early, when is it early? Long before the Rickon tribe went to explore the Proxima Galaxy.

After all, until now, the Rickens have not been able to confirm when the swarm entered space. Ricken even guessed that the members of the swarm belonged to space creatures from the time of their birth and could live freely in the space environment.

If this is the case, they may have been to the Rickon system a long time ago.
