The arrival of the Bell family has successfully attracted most of the hatred of the insects. Now, except for some lone drones and desert insects that occasionally wander to the coalition forces, most of the time on the battlefield they seem to have nothing to do with humans. , just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
The number of drones is huge. Although it is slightly insufficient compared to the Zerg, it is obviously not comparable to the coalition forces.
The Bell family is different from the Zerg. They belong to a hive mind. The low-level drones have almost no self-awareness. Instead, they are more like mechanical arms that can act alone, and the brains of these arms are the mother nest of the central control area.
The shapes of drone nests are all kinds of strange. Some may be a huge metal nest, some may be a strange-shaped space station, and some may be a high-end fighter plane. In short, they have no fixed appearance.
Judging from the current situation, the mother nest of these drones is likely to be the huge planet in the distance. If you want to win the battle, you only need to deal with the Death Star over there, and the remaining All drones will lose combat effectiveness at the same time.
This is also the biggest difference between the Bell clan and the Wild Zerg clan, and it is also their most fatal weakness.
Of course, in view of this weakness, drones will naturally not be left unprotected. The defense capability of the brood can be said to be almost invincible. It can be said that no one at the same level can directly destroy the brood before destroying all the drones. Unless the level gap between the two sides is huge, it would be possible to kill the nest with the concentrated fire of countless drones.
There are also levels within the Bell drone group. From low to high they are: Scout, Raider, Destroyer, Destroyer, and God Killer.
Among the drones in front of him, Zhang Xiaoman saw more than five Godslayers and nearly a thousand Destroyers.
The defense of drones is also very strong. Their own structure is made of various dark spirit materials, which is even harder than the carapace of those wild insects. And regardless of high-level or low-level drones, they They are all protected by powerful shields, which makes the damage rate of drones much lower than that of bugs when fighting on large-scale battlefields.
The speed of these drones is very fast, and ordinary wild insects cannot catch up with them. If it were not for their numerical disadvantage, I am afraid that the Zerg would not be the opponent of the drones at all, and the two sides would not have been fighting to the death for so many years. .
Zhang Xiaoman observed the battle on both sides for a while, and the form of victory was moving closer to the drone. After all, the current desert insect army had lost part of its strength in the previous battle, and there were still two progenitor insects and one Only a low-level god-level insect mother has been killed, and now it is naturally no match for the Death Star drone group of the same level.
It can be said that the combat power of this drone army is equivalent to that of the super-large-scale seventh-level insect swarm. Even if both sides are in full strength, it is not necessarily possible which side will win, not to mention that these insects have just experienced battles. Humanity is at war.
Less than ten minutes after the launch, an ancestor insect was blown to pieces under the full output of a god-killer-level drone. Zhang Xiaoman remembered this insect. It was the insect that had fought with Zi Kuang earlier. The guy who was there for a long time was probably killed by the drone so quickly because of the huge consumption.
While he was thinking about it, the Death Omen Star in the distance slowly opened a huge opening, and a burst of red light suddenly emitted from it. It was a powerful light cannon constructed from spiritual power.
"boom!
"
As this spiritual light cannon that had been charged for a long time was fired, tens of millions of Zerg were instantly turned into powder. An Ancestor Zerg was the first to bear the brunt and was directly killed by one shot.
"What a powerful force!"
Zhang Xiaoman was shocked. The attack from Death Star just now made him widen his eyes. Judging from the strength of the spiritual power, the damage caused by this attack actually reached the same level as Lan Baiyi, that is, the peak lower god. At this level, no wonder it can kill an ancestor insect in one blow.
The Zerg lost two extraordinary progenitors one after another, and their high-end combat power suffered a huge blow. Coupled with the crazy attacks of the drone cluster, they were retreating steadily for a while, and soon they were heading towards the coalition forces. The direction ran over.
"Damn! These
The drones brought the bugs to us! "
Some people couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw this. Seeing the swarm of insects retreating like waves, everyone in the coalition also panicked.
"The drone is coming! Be careful! Dodge quickly!"
"Oh my god! So many drones! How much materials and money are there! If I could bring them back, I could make a fortune just selling Dark Spirit Circuits!"
"Idiot! You're still thinking about getting rich! Let's save your life first!"
"Don't panic! Don't panic! Gather into a defensive formation and get close to me! Don't take the initiative to attack for the time being. Activate the stealth mode! Let them ignore us! Wait for them to fight with each other first! Let's not take action!"
"..."
There was a commotion on the coalition side, but it soon calmed down again. Zhang Xiaoman saw that most of the fleets had turned on the stealth mode. Although this mode was useless in battle, it was easy to be found by spiritual perception. Come out, but judging from the current situation, it can at least help them reduce their sense of presence, so that bugs and drones can temporarily ignore them, thereby achieving the effect of reaping the benefits of the fishermen.
Many drones flew past Zhang Xiaoman, but these drones did not attack him, but simply ignored them and fought with the insects.
"Strange, why didn't they attack us?"
Zi Kuang looked puzzled. Based on his understanding of Beier's drone, these brainless ironheads would not care that he was an extraordinary true god. They would attack without fear every time they saw him. .
Yeluo, on the other hand, didn't even think about it, raised his chin and said proudly:
"Of course they don't dare to attack. Master Ji Xing is still here. If they dare to move, wouldn't they be too impatient to live?"
Zi Kuang opened his mouth, but he wanted to say something but didn't say it. He always felt that there were many loopholes in what the girl said, but when it came to Ji Xing, he was a little unsure.
[In view of the general environment,
Maybe it is true as she said, the drones are afraid. After all, although the drones released outside have no thoughts, the mother nest does. Maybe the drone mother nest saw the terrifying Pole Star. Because of his strength, he didn't dare to take action against him.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, a beam of light suddenly shot from a distance and hit him directly in the head.
"Who is it! Who is it! Who dares to beat me!?"
Zi Kuang immediately rolled up his arms and sleeves and looked around for his target.
He was too absorbed in thinking just now and was hit by a stray bullet without paying attention.
After searching for a while but unable to find the initiator, Zi Kuang's eyes widened, he directly rubbed a huge purple ball of light and threw it in the direction of the attack.
Immediately afterwards, a strong explosion formed in the area over there. Zi Kuang, who couldn't find who was attacking him, simply dealt an indiscriminate range of damage, killing all the bugs and drones in that area.
Zhang Xiaoman couldn't help but sweat when he saw the old man's violent temper. Somehow he thought of Ziwei again, and he didn't know whether all the people in the Zimei clan were like this or just their father and daughter.
However, judging from the sudden attack just now, Zhang Xiaoman denied the previous speculation. The drone was not afraid of the strength of himself and others, but it was for some other reason.
"Is it because we are lucky? It shouldn't be... It's impossible for drones like this to ignore us..."
While he was thinking about it, suddenly a drone was hit by a wild insect and roared towards him.
Zhang Xiaoman waved his hand casually, using Dark Energy Shock, and easily controlled the flying drone in front of him.
This is a scout-level drone. Although it is the lowest level, its size is far beyond that of an ordinary Linghui tribe.
This drone is about the same size as a fighter jet on Aquamarine, and its shape is rather strange. It looks like a huge oval iron lump with its body extending out.
Too many mechanical tentacles are completely inconsistent with human aesthetics of spaceships.
"Huh? This feeling..."
At the same time, Zhang Xiaoman suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
He stared at the drone in front of him. The latter seemed to be struggling to escape, but since it was controlled by him, the struggle became weaker and weaker, and in the end it stopped moving at all.
"It didn't attack me...and I felt like it was resisting something..."
Zhang Xiaoman recalled the scene when the drone was controlled at the beginning. Although the limbs could not move, the drone's muzzle could still launch an attack, but the opponent did not take advantage of that moment to make any move, which made people extremely puzzled. .
He closed his eyes slightly, then opened them suddenly. As if he suddenly thought of something, he threw away the drone on hand and grabbed another one from a distance.
"Same reaction! They don't seem to be willing to attack me, but due to some kind of instructions, they have a slight intention to attack..."
Zhang Xiaoman felt more and more strange. This drone felt to him like playing a game. It turned out that two people were controlling the character at the same time. One wanted to go east, and the other wanted to play basketball.
"They are resisting..."
Zhang Xiaoman stretched out his palm and put it close to the armor of the drone, feeling it calmly.
"What are you resisting?"
"This is a kind of... intimacy... How can there be intimacy? Is it mine, or is it...?"
In response, he suddenly opened his eyes, and at the same time, the star pattern of the Eyes of Stars lit up on his arm.
The star pattern talent is activated and life is stripped away!
In an instant, the drone lost its movement, and the light of spiritual power within it began to dim.
However, at this moment, Zhang Xiaoman's eyes flashed with light, and his star pattern talent was activated again.
Life giving!
The next second, the drone that had been silent suddenly came to life again, buzzed and began to tremble violently.
Zhang Xiaoman loosened the restraints on it, and the drone was immediately out of control. However, it did not run away, but just circled around him, looking like a puppy trying to please its owner.
""I see!"
Zhang Xiaoman's eyes shrank, and immediately his face suddenly showed a burst of joy, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
After the experiment just now, he finally figured out what was going on.
Looking at the drones in the distance, he felt a sense of surprise and surprise in his heart, as if he had seen a huge treasure.
"These drones actually treat me as their mother's nest!"
Zhang Xiaoman exclaimed in his heart.
From the beginning when he came into contact with the drone, he felt something was wrong. It was a kind of intimate feeling. At first, he was a little unclear whether it was caused by him to the other person or the other person to him.
Logically speaking, since he and the drone are in a hostile position, neither he nor the other party should feel this way.
But Zhang Xiaoman was very sure that he could not have any illusions, and there could be no external factors that could affect him and cause him to have similar emotions. So it was already obvious that he did not feel wrong. There must be something fishy in there!
Later, after his more detailed feelings, Zhang Xiaoman discovered the truth, that is, the drone in front of him had a close feeling for him, so much so that it violated the instructions of the mother's nest and refused to launch attacks on him. attack.
Zhang Xiaoman didn't know why this happened, but when it came to similar situations, he had never seen them before. That is, after facing the creations given life by his star pattern talent, those creations would bring him such a... Feel.
Therefore, without hesitation, he subconsciously turned on the star pattern, activated his innate ability, and used Life Stripping on the drone, interrupting its interaction with the drone.
The connection with the mother's nest is equivalent to erasing the control imprint of the mother's nest on it.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xiaoman added his own brand to it, giving the iron lump new life, and this was the next scene.
In essence, whether drones are intelligent lifeforms is widely debated even among the Dark Star Alliance, because they have no self-thinking and rely entirely on the hive's hive consciousness for control. The control of the Wild Zerg Clan is even more thorough.
After all, although the Wild Insects are commanded by the Insect Mother through spiritual power and mental connection, even when the Insect Mother is not around, the Insects are still independent individuals that can act on their own.
But drones are different. Without the command of the brood, they are really just a piece of motionless scrap metal. Therefore, people feel that they are more like self-awareness than intelligent beings. Cells all rely on the "brain center" of the mother nest to carry out command activities.
