When Barry woke up, it was already the third day.
He was very hungry, so he opened the refrigerator, grabbed some bread and water, and had a hard time. He found that his appetite had increased a lot.
In his mind, the bug could communicate directly with him: "Your body is too weak, and my ability to modify your body is limited."
"If your body is transformed into a Zerg, you will break through the limit of human lifespan and no longer be troubled by human diseases. My kindred spirits will soon come ashore."
"In short, you have to obtain more resources as soon as possible to cultivate the land Zerg."
"I need money, it's time for you to contribute some information!" Barry said.
"It's a piece of cake!" Chongzi suggested, "I suggest you start with cancer. Don't you want to become a great man in science? If a physiologist conquers cancer, what a great achievement it will be?"
"Those capitalists will rush to give you money. You will become the guest of the big guys. We only need an opportunity and we can carry out the plan."
"Let's get started." Barry closed his eyes, and the bug shared a piece of information with him, which was some knowledge about cells, genes and the like.
…
Thirty days have passed since He Xingzhou announced that the Zerg were trying to attack the estuary.
During this time, more and more Zerg gathered and began to take action.
The closest to them is naturally the mouth of the Tone River in Choshi District, Sakurajima Island.
The Sakura Belt has been preparing for a month. This month, they urgently mobilized all their forces for defense.
In the waters near the estuary, four quasi-aircraft carriers, plus submarines, large-tonnage destroyers, frigates and various mine ships and patrol ships have been patrolling. From time to time, they will launch some fish or depth bombs to target the gathering. Mutated creatures bomb.
On the ground, they have built a coastal defense line with sand, rocks, trenches, etc., equipped with tanks, armored vehicles, self-propelled artillery, ground artillery, rocket vehicles, heavy machine guns, etc., which have equipped them with a large amount of land power.
During this period, the arsenal has been operating at full capacity and has been manufacturing new weapons. As the world's top industrial country, their assembly lines can produce a large number of weapons every day.
It can be said that the defense personnel of the entire Tone River estuary have been armed to the teeth.
"Warning, the Zerg are moving. They are beginning to gather at the estuary. Within ten hours, they will enter the warning zone!" A message appeared at the command center.
Commander Ishii Koji stood up suddenly and shouted on the communication channel: "Everyone is ready, the Zerg is about to attack!"
"The Zerg are coming?" The commanders sent by White Eagle to assist are also here. There are two of them, land commander Jonah and sea commander Harvey.
Although Harvey was defeated in the last battle, he lost an entire aircraft carrier fleet. But considering that his opponent was an alien, and he used hydrogen bombs but failed to kill the deep-sea behemoth, White Eagle did not revoke his position.
Instead, let him continue to participate in relevant command. Now Harvey is the only commander with combat experience against the Zerg, and has high command authority.
Harvey said directly: "Immediately spread the mine formations in the sea! Use as many as you can. Don't be stingy with firepower when dealing with the Zerg!"
"Submarines and warships should not get close to the Zerg and attack them from a distance! We have no advantage in fighting them in close combat!"
"The entrance to the sea is directly blocked with underwater nets and small underwater submarines! You can't let the Zerg into the river!"
"Get all underwater detectors ready, especially the radiation detectors. If a behemoth appears this time, don't think too much and just load up the hydrogen bomb! Our aircraft carrier is on standby in the nearby waters!"
The last deep sea monster had already cast a shadow on him. If a guy like that were allowed to land, what could stop him?
"Start intercepting!" Koji Ishii ordered, and the warships had already begun to search for targets and fire.
But the Zerg are very smart. They hide under a thousand meters of water. Within this range, there are almost no weapons that can cause harm to them.
"They will float sooner or later. The water depth in the offshore sea is so deep that you can pick up money. Stay calm!"
The news that the Zerg would land within ten hours immediately spread throughout Sakura Island, and everyone was nervous.
People close to the relevant area have already evacuated, but this place is too small, and even if they evacuate, they won't be able to evacuate very far.
Once they fail to hold on, they will still face danger.
"They are really coming? Can we hold on?"
"We can definitely defend it! The land is covered with weapons, and there are fleets in the sea!"
"Let the Zerg come, we will be the first nation to defeat them!"
"Mutated creatures are just larger beasts in the face of modern weapons! There is nothing to be afraid of!"
"That's an alien creature. There must be some tricks we don't know about!"
…
The situation here has also attracted the attention of the world.
Sakura Island's military strength ranks among the best in the world, and it has White Eagle's help. This war against the Zerg landing is the first confrontation between human civilization and the Zerg on land. The outcome is particularly important!
…
"What are their chances of winning?" Xuanwu executives were discussing this matter.
"The strength they have deployed is enough to defeat 90% of the human countries in the world." Qin Peng said, "But this time they are facing the Zerg. No one knows the strength of the Zerg, and there is no specific data to analyze. "
He Hongwei said: "If a deep-sea behemoth like last time appears this time, none of these defensive measures can stop it! However, no deep-sea behemoth has been detected yet."
He Xingzhou analyzed: "According to the data from the last battle in the Mariana Trench, the deep-sea behemoths definitely belong to the advanced insect race. Although they are powerful, human nuclear weapons can still hurt them."
"The war between humans and Zerg has just begun. I think they are also testing human power, and they will not send out the deep-sea behemoths from the beginning."
"I think so too," Song Jinghong said, "But we can't think about the Zerg with any human thinking inertia, just in case they are not afraid of death."
Everyone nodded. It was not wise to use human thinking to think about the thoughts of other races.
"It's one thing if the giant beasts of the deep sea move out; it's another situation if they don't. Xuanwu, start simulation analysis." Qin Peng shouted, and a quantum computer simulation appeared in front of everyone.
"Current detection data shows that the number of mutated creatures attacking Chozi District this time exceeds 10 million. The total number of Zerg should be around 1 million, and the total number of defending human troops is more than 300,000." Xuanwu Said, "The strength of the Zerg troops here is only predicted. The number of smaller mutated creatures, as well as those that have not been counted, may exceed one million."
"They should be able to block the mutant organisms." Qin Peng said, "Human firearms can easily kill those mutant organisms."
After three years of research on mutant creatures and Zerg, their "Zerg Biological Dictionary" has been greatly improved.
For example, according to the different degrees of mutation, mutated organisms are divided into three types: primary mutation; intermediate mutation and complete mutation.
Primary mutation refers to a Blue Star creature that has been contaminated by Zerg genes for no more than three months under a normal environment without any extra biological stimulation or energy supplement. At this stage, it is basically still a Blue Star creature.
For intermediate-level mutant creatures, the mutation time period extends from three months to three years, and the degree of change is already a bit high.
Complete mutation means that it has nothing to do with the original species and is about to become a real Zerg.
The specific degree and speed of mutation vary with different environmental conditions.
After reaching complete mutation, some mutants will no longer evolve, while a small number will continue to evolve, activate the Zerg biological chip, load a certain Zerg biological template according to their own conditions, and start evolving according to the template.
Divided into many different types of Zerg.
For example, resource gathering bugs can collect minerals, organic food, sunlight, oil and other materials;
The soldier bugs of the combat unit can launch attacks, the conventional ones are biting and impacting, and the advanced ones can also use biological and chemical weapons;
A brainworm similar to a command center, capable of emitting infrasonic waves, ultrasonic waves or other signals to command the Zerg;
Engineer bugs can build a unique living environment for the bugs or destroy enemy buildings...
They also have levels. The research team believes that the so-called level refers to the permission to read information on the biochip.
Obtaining more advanced permissions will unlock more evolution templates for evolution.
Human beings have not yet figured out what the specific level is.
In the Sentinel Tower Scientific Research Institute, apart from the deep-sea fruit that has not yet been fully studied, the most advanced Zerg among the other mutated creatures is the "Black Snapper No. 2" that He Xingzhou originally cultivated. Its current level is level four.
It is already more than four meters tall. Because it has lived on the road for a long time, it has been loaded with some kind of terrestrial Zerg template. Now it has completely lost its fish characteristics and evolved into some kind of monster covered with bone spurs.
It is already difficult to kill it with ordinary firearms. According to computer analysis, to kill Black Snapper No. 2, at least the explosive power of a 100 kilogram TNT-equivalent artillery shell is needed!
As for the level of the deep-sea behemoth, He Xingzhou didn't know.
He Xingzhou said: "Level 1 Zerg can be killed by rifles and machine guns; level 2 Zerg needs armor-piercing bullets, heavy machine guns, grenades and other weapons; level 3 can only be killed by weapons such as anti-tank mines and high-explosive bombs; level 4 Zerg needs weapons such as armor-piercing bullets, heavy machine guns, and grenades. level, we need artillery and missiles.”
"The intelligence this time shows that there are a large number of level one to level three Zerg. When they land, the defenders will definitely suffer a heavy loss."
"If the number of Level 4 Zerg exceeds 100,000, and the number of Level 5 Zerg exceeds 10,000, then I don't think they can stop them."
He Hongwei said: "If it is a fifth-level Zerg, according to our speculation, conventional artillery can no longer kill them. At least tactical missiles are needed to kill them! Once these guys land on land, their mine arrays, trenches, armored vehicles, and tanks will , can’t even stop it!”
He Xingzhou whispered: "Maybe after this war, the world will know why we built the Great Wall of Steel."
…
The whole world is watching this war, but the difference is that some people can't even see it.
China can be observed in real time through the Skynet satellite network and comprehensive mapping images from underwater detectors.
Five hours later, Sakura Island, Choshi District, the sea near the mouth of the Tone River.
Explosions continued to sound. They were explosions caused by mutant creatures touching the torpedo array. The depth of the water here was no longer high, and various underwater weapons began to take effect.
Judging from the images taken by satellite, the nearby sea area is completely black.
Looking at it from a distance, I thought it was a leak from the cruise ship, and the oil turned the sea black. However, when the camera zoomed in, what everyone saw were densely packed mutated creatures, and their number was horrifying!
"These Zerg are very smart. They let the weak mutant creatures walk through the mines and hide behind them." Qin Peng looked carefully and saw that the mutant creatures were densely packed together, and the Zerg were scattered among them to avoid being killed by the mines.
The mutated creature broke through the minefield with its flesh and blood body. In just a few minutes, the sea surface was dyed into colorful colors, as if the god poured a bunch of paint on the sea surface.
The blood of most mutated creatures is red, with some other colors mixed in.
In the headquarters, the observer reported nervously.
"The Zerg army is twenty kilometers away from the coastline! Fifty percent of the mine array and depth charges have been lost."
Before the Zerg came ashore, they destroyed most of these bombs. Some were physically resistant to mines, while others were destroyed through some electromagnetic means.
Ishii Koji was holding his breath. Now they have been intercepting with underwater weapons. It is obvious that the effect is not great.
Although one to two million mutated creatures were killed, the real Zerg haven't shown up yet!
"The mine array has failed!"
"Mutated creatures are approaching the beach!"
"Bombers, dispatch!"
"Open all the heavy machine guns and artillery muzzles on the beach!"
"Rockets and short-range missiles are on standby!" Koji Ishii ordered.
At this time, some mutated creatures have crawled onto the beach. Their appearance is extremely strange. Some are just fish with arms and legs, and there are also software creatures that move slowly on the beach; crustacean creatures that crawl very fast. Most of them are cannon fodder, used to absorb firepower.
Under the bombardment of bullets, artillery shells, and explosives, these guys were blown to pieces before they even landed on the beach.
The sky, land, and ocean are covered by three lines of firepower, fully demonstrating human military strength. No mutant creature can get close to the defense line.
As everyone suspected, these guys with low mutation levels can block mutant creatures with human firearms.
Seeing this scene, the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief. It turns out that resisting the Zerg is not that difficult! According to this situation, as long as they maintain their firepower output, the Zerg will not be able to land!
The entrance to the sea can also be blocked by ships and underwater weapons.
This continued for half an hour. Their gun barrels and cannon barrels began to heat up, and the density of the mutated creatures was significantly reduced.
"According to this situation, we can definitely stop them!" Koji Ishikawa was reporting the situation to the top management. At this point, the reporter sent an urgent message: "A large number of unknown creatures have been found under the sea surface, and they are quickly approaching the coast!"
"The mine formation was completely destroyed!"
"Deep water weapon interception failed!"
"They're on the beach!"
These guys were so fast that Ishikawa Koji didn't even have a chance to react. Through the drone's battlefield footage, he saw that they were huge beetles, with their whole bodies covered by hard carapace, in cyan, red and other colors.
The size is comparable to an armored vehicle, and it moves very fast!
Bullets hitting them are like hitting an iron plate, it is difficult to penetrate! Falling artillery shells can sometimes injure them, but they cannot kill them!
These guys, in just a few minutes, had broken through the beach defense line and approached the coastal defense line!
