Machine Storm

On the 78th Earth Day of the expeditionary force, Commander-in-Chief Markham launched the first general attack against the Kepler Zerg. More than 10,000 large human warships of various types joined the battlefield, and millions of drones and mobile suits were launched. The giant insect army also surprised the expeditionary force. It is roughly estimated that it can reach tens of millions. The flames of war illuminated the space. Humanity is still in the lead in long-range firepower. Various laser cannons, neutron cannons, laser cannons, and space torpedoes are constantly sweeping away. The swarm of insects and the space fortress of the Hanxing Fleet released one of mankind's ultimate weapons, the anti-matter collapse bomb. The two sides fought fiercely for more than thirty hours on the earth. From the situation, the expeditionary force achieved very huge results, and the losses were not small. As the giant insect swarm was wiped out in large areas and the overall advantage gradually became overwhelming, a sudden change occurred. The clouds covering Kepler's vast sea dispersed, and countless giant insect nests flew towards space. At the same time, Deep in the sea, a giant blue beam wrapped in spiral energy passed through Kepler's atmosphere and blasted towards the space fortress at the core of the Star Han fleet. The human mechas and warships along the way lost their energy, and once they came into contact, they were immediately destroyed. Death, the energy shield of the battle fortress opens, which is also the powerful energy shield of mankind.

This terrifying beam directly weakened most of the space fortress' energy shield and destroyed one-fifth of the space fortress. The human fleet began to retreat, and the expeditionary force's first general attack came to an end.

The Kepler area that had been cleared by the expeditionary force was soon filled with giant insects. The suspended brood nests were like nightmares. From the overall result, humans won, but from the situation, they were not happy. .

The giant insects have shown a steady stream of production capabilities, and they are close to the planet Kepler, so supplies are much more convenient than humans. The human battle front is too long.

Markham's combat style is surprisingly stable. When he saw the number of giant insect reinforcements, he decisively ordered a retreat. Although he could take the risk and take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate a wave of giant insects, he would then be entangled and would have to bear the burden of trying to withdraw from the battlefield. The damage in the battle is difficult to estimate, and this battle is obviously not the time for an all-in attack. It is even said that the giant insects should be prepared by Theseus and other humans that are unknown to humans. This risk cannot be taken.

The damage to the Battle Fortress was somewhat serious this time, and it also caused a lot of casualties. A nuclear power furnace had been completely destroyed, and there was a radiation leak. The engineering ship had been working overtime to repair it. Before the Battle Fortress was repaired, the expeditionary force would not be able to easily Launch a general attack.

The major fleets returned to their anchor points for repairs, repairs of warships, and treatment of the wounded. At the same time, they also needed to wait for the second wave of weapons and equipment supplied by the logistics force.

More than half of the Fifth Fleet was damaged, and it was also the most seriously damaged of the expeditionary force. It also withdrew from the outpost to the end, and was topped by the Third Conquest Fleet of Mars.

The Hunters also participated in the general offensive, but they did not arrange the most outpost tasks. No matter how strong the individual strength is, it will be of little use in such a geometric multiple battle. Of course, the Hunters' results are very significant, especially for top players such as Li Hao and Maxis. The masters really disrupted the local battlefield of the giant insects, and as long as the mechas were not damaged beyond endurance, their continuous combat capabilities were very strong and they could fight back and forth among the insect swarms, giving the giant insects a taste of the same.

In the laboratory of the Battle Fortress, Savitian had lost consciousness after being transported here, but his body was still moving on its own and reproducing rapidly in a strange proliferative state. He was treated with liquid nitrogen ice by a group of scientists such as Jerrys. Feng, even during the war, they were researching day and night. When the battle fortress was hit, there was chaos outside. They didn't care at all, for fear that their experimental products would be destroyed, and nothing else mattered.

Savutian's body was already dead, but the strange thing was that his body was still active and planned to proliferate in an disorderly manner. However, such proliferation would only lead to collapse and eventually complete death. However, they still analyzed various substances from Savutian's body. The same energy fluctuation, this weak energy fluctuation should be Theseus' "divine power". This seemingly inconspicuous energy fluctuation allows this body that should not exist to survive with a biological mentality, but now there is no way to retain this energy. The power completely dies in Savutian's body, and this power will disappear at any time. The things contained in it also make everyone feel itchy. The existence of this power can not only prove that life can be created, but souls can also be given.

The existence of humans, the Earth, and even the solar system is most likely not an accident.

Jerrys and the others have reached a consensus on this. Does Theseus have a certain connection with human civilization?

Could it be that humans are actually the seeds left behind before the Nemel migration?

Humans and Nimels are infinitely close to each other in all aspects including body shape, but Nimels' souls are more powerful and closer to the gods in human legends.

Finding Theseus has become the key to this battle. Through soul positioning, Jerrys and others are trying to figure out how to estimate Theseus, and the energy cannon that hit the space fortress also provides them with a reference. The ability is definitely not the power of the giant insects, but the power of the Nimerians. The enemy that humans finally face is gradually being exposed.

There is a war on the front lines, and there are endless debates within the solar system. Large-scale anti-war demonstrations broke out in various parts of the four major federations, especially on the moon and the earth. Some insect rights organizations believe that humans are invaders. This war is not necessary at all. Humans should fight giants. The peaceful coexistence of insects, coupled with the casualties caused by war and social instability, have given rise to various social problems.

Fortunately, the mainstream opinions within the Solar System Alliance are relatively unified. This battle must be fought and won at all costs, even if it means destroying the planet Kepler. The new information obtained by the expeditionary force is constantly being summarized to the Alliance. The headquarters, after realizing the existence and control of the Nimerians, cannot allow failure even if the planet Kepler is lost. Once the giant insects go to the solar system, humans will become domesticated animals and will not have the chance to kneel down.

In troubled times, kill the Virgin first. The opinions of the four major federations are very unified. There is no luck in civilized war. If human beings are gone, what is the meaning of the universe?

Continuous supplies are being transported to the front line. Radicals within the alliance prefer to use Janibekov cannons once and for all. Although reconstruction will be much more difficult, this is the most advantageous way, but it is the last resort of mankind. One hand.

Markham and others on the front line also had the same plan. Based on the weak connection in the soul band, Jerrys and the others basically determined the area where Theseus was. The shot on the sea might be a smoke bomb. Base has now become the base camp of Nangong Aerospace and Giant Insect.

"I think a war of attrition is not conducive to us. Theseus must be stalling for time to complete evolution, especially his potential impact on mankind cannot be ignored, and this war needs to be ended as soon as possible."

Everyone is very worried about Theseus's huge mental ability and omnipresent influence. It has not reached that level yet, but some people have already had an impact. The key is that they don't know it yet. If they are allowed to develop, the consequences will be disastrous. The giant insect can continue to spread. Production consumption, but humans cannot afford it, is still within control. If the battle damage is too large, the pressure inside the solar system will be huge. If it is not handled well, it will cause immeasurable problems. The support Markham and others have received It was also the alliance that withstood huge pressure. Even after this battle, they may not get any good judgment, but it doesn't matter. As soldiers, they know their responsibilities.

"Our goal is not to eliminate the giant insects, nor to destroy Kepler, but to eliminate Theseus. This is the scourge of our human existence. The giant insects themselves are not so aggressive and reproductive."

"We adjusted Plan B and waited for supplies to arrive before launching a general attack, opening a breach, sending special operations troops down, and destroying five bases. If the operation failed, we would use the Janibekov cannon!" Pang Pai said.

While the fleet was sending drones to continuously harass, they were also discussing combat plans. Markham and others were all staring at dark circles. All kinds of intelligence from the front line and the rear were constantly feeding back. Although the alliance supported it, it could not sustain it for a long time. After all, the war took place in the distant Kepler, and a considerable number of humans really did not understand it. Although the alliance gave reasons, some people only wanted to believe in their own cognitive judgments, and this was also a considerable group of people. , this pressure is equally huge.

Combining various factors and taking into account the situation on the front line, it was imminent to launch a landing plan.

"Are five bases necessary? The scope is too large and the difficulty is high."

"The No. 1 base must be the main attack point. This will be led by Li Hao, but the other four bases must also be destroyed. We don't have a second chance. This time we will invest all the landing troops and destroy them by force!" Markham said solemnly.

There is a high probability that Nangong Aerospace is at Base No. 1, but the other four bases are also giant insect base camps. A large number of giant insects are pouring out of them. This cannot be left alone. This battle is a two-pronged approach, with air strikes and ground cutoffs. It has always been It was thought that the battle command of the giant worm was commanded by the mother nest or the brain worm. Now it seems that it is completely under the control of Theseus. Cutting off the command is the key to this battle.

Of course, if we step back ten thousand steps and the ground battle fails, or the destruction of Theseus still has no effect on the giant insects, then the Janibekov axis cannon will be used. The energy source of this planet-level destruction weapon is As for antimatter, humans are currently quite slow to accumulate dark matter, and the Battlestar only has one shot, but as long as it hits, Kepler's surface and shallow creatures will become history.

The experiments of Janibekov's axis cannon are based on some unmanned and desolate satellite and laboratory data. This will also be the first time it is used in actual combat.
