The energy generated by a meteorite falling to the ground is definitely no less than that of a nuclear explosion, but in this case, the eggs can still hatch smoothly, which shows that they have unknown protective measures to ensure that the larvae reach the target area alive and grow into shape.
Therefore, after Lu Li divided the fleet into four parts, he ordered the captains of each division not to waste ammunition for the time being and wait until it was confirmed that bugs had hatched before firing.
Flares, searchlights, telescopes.
Through these devices, it is still impossible to see clearly what is inside the crater, and everyone is waiting.
In the darkness, the scorched earth around the pit began to vibrate slightly, and then dense clicking sounds were heard.
"There is nothing. Did the Zerg have a transmission error?" The monitor comforted himself, trying to dilute the solemn atmosphere in the cabin.
Will's eyes glanced slightly, and suddenly, the guy's heart suddenly thumped.
You must know that the Zerg are not some barbaric beasts without intelligence. They are the same as humans and have their own civilization. You can not understand it, but you must not underestimate it.
Otherwise, why would humans, who have always been pioneering and enterprising, stop their pace after encountering the Zerg, and stay there for thousands of years without daring to make any other moves.
Frankly speaking, every time he thinks of the records about the Zerg in his ancestors' manuscripts, Will doesn't dare to take it lightly.
With the development of the times, humans have discovered genetic locks, and a small group of people have embarked on the road to transcendence. Even if the powerful enemies of the past have not evolved, they cannot degenerate.
Lu Li swallowed the energy bar and warned the two people in front of him: "Celine hasn't woken up yet. You two don't have to join the battle later. You are responsible for protecting her."
Frankly speaking, the two girls, Samantha and Viola, are of average strength. Due to limited time, they have not even adapted to their own abilities.
Therefore, Lu Li did not plan to send them to fight the Zerg. He just wanted to protect Xilin.
A dragonborn with the blood of an ancient dragon breaks free from the genetic lock.
The overlap between the two is really exciting.
The most important thing is that Xilin is very loyal to herself. Although Lu Li has no interest in preaching, he can't deny the piety of believers. He and she will never abandon the gods they believe in.
"gentlemen……"
Samantha hesitated to speak.
Fighting the Zerg is likely to result in death.
These were Lu Li's exact words. He hoped that all dragonborn would think carefully and never act out of anger. If they were unwilling to participate in the war, they would not be blamed afterwards.
Having said that, if you are willing to participate in the war, you will definitely be favored and receive more guidance. Celine is the best example.
In the eyes of all the heirs, the reason why she became the most special one was because she was the first to meet Mr. Lu and offered her loyalty.
"War is not a child's play."
Lu Li saw through the hesitation in Samantha's eyes and said solemnly: "As long as there is no betrayal, I will treat everyone equally."
"Complete the mission seriously, and I will continue to train you after the war."
In any case, these young people are quite loyal and don't care much about conspiracy. Therefore, it is worth spending your time to cultivate them.
Lu Li's idea was so simple.
"We will never stand against you."
Another girl, Viola, immediately gave her assurance.
At this time, a flash of light suddenly came from the porthole, illuminating half of Lu Li's face.
It was a lightning-shaped sphere shot out from the deep pit, and the defense system had already been activated to deflect it at the first opportunity.
"Fire."
"The Zerg have been hatched."
The person who gave the order was Will, and after Celine fell into a coma, this guy took on the important responsibility.
At the same time, the fleet near the other three craters encountered similar incidents. Fortunately, Lu Li warned them in advance that the defense unit must be turned on during the observation period.
Otherwise, the spacecraft will definitely be shot down unexpectedly, and the combatants on it will also die.
"It looks like it's really the Arachnis Zerg."
While muttering to himself, Lu Li turned around and walked towards the command cabin.
A main battleship, a light transport ship equipped with an attack unit, and the fact that I am stationed here are enough to suppress a group of Zerg.
"Well...if it's just to this extent, it's not the end."
At this moment, Lu Li longed for a battle, glorious and difficult, so that he could improve his personal evaluation.
Of course, no matter how difficult it is, he must achieve the final victory, and then confirm his position and return to the earth. This is not a loss.
"Sir, you are here."
Will, who was temporarily in command, quickly noticed Lu Li, stood up and introduced, "The attack unit has been activated and is launching tactical missiles."
"Nuclear weapons will cause harmful radiation to carbon-based organisms, making it inconvenient for combatants to enter and fight. In addition, Zerg are silicon-based organisms, so they are probably not afraid of radiation..."
"You did a good job." Lu Li interrupted the explanation and looked at the crater through the telescope.
The light flickered, but you could clearly see the dense insect legs in the pit. They did not climb out hastily, and seemed to be using the terrain created by the meteorite to avoid attacks.
At the same time, the plasma worm is still squirming its fat tail and firing high-energy plasma cannons, acting as an anti-aircraft cannon.
"How is this possible? I remember that when the first meteorite crash occurred, it took nearly two days for the Zerg to complete its development!!"
With the help of the red and blue light, General Otto was lucky enough to see a shocking scene. The impact crater with a radius of several miles was filled with Zerg warriors, densely packed like the eyes of stars in the dark night.
Seeing this, many technicians felt a chill in their hearts.
“In the final analysis, the data is still limited.”
After speaking, Lu Li shook his head. He was not going to give these people a temporary education on the Arachnis Zerg.
One is that there is not enough time, and the other is that the more you know, the more frightened you become.
Although the truth is a bit cruel, war ultimately requires cannon fodder.
"Commander-in-Chief, the load capacity of the defense system is about to reach its limit. We must hold on for another ten minutes at most."
a technician shouted.
No one knows how long the Zerg plasma bugs can last. Anyway, the inventory of defensive missiles on the spacecraft is declining rapidly. If this trend continues, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Take out all the incendiary bombs and land in a safe area away from the crater."
Although the Zerg are tenacious, weapons of mass destruction such as incendiary bombs can eventually play some role.
"yes."
the other side.
A Roche Biotech executive is giving instructions to members of the mobile suit team.
"Everyone, I just received news that the defense system is close to its limit and may collapse at any time, and the Zerg air defense forces are still firing plasma cannonballs."
"Maybe they have reached their limit, but we don't dare to gamble, so I ordered the fleet to descend."
"And you are equipped with the latest mechas produced by the company. You are the elite among the elite. You can be entrusted with important tasks. I plan to send you to the impact crater to annihilate the Zerg anti-aircraft troops."
Hearing this, the members of the mecha team did not have any doubts. They all clenched their fists in front of their chests and said in greeting:
"Everything is for the benefit of the company."
Compared to human civilization, they have more feelings for Luo's creatures.
After that, the small team of only thirty people left and went to the equipment depot to change weapons.
at the same time.
Lu Li has also organized a special team here, including twenty warriors who have undergone three cell enhancements, including security personnel from Roche Biotech, as well as military personnel, as well as two dragonborns, Will and Dean.
"These guys are greedy for life and afraid of death."
Will was putting on his mecha and was cursing. He thought everyone would end up, after all, they were all on the front line.
As a result... after seeing with their own eyes how troublesome the Zerg were, they all retreated.
On the side, although Dean was a little unhappy, he was not irrational, thinking: Actually, we two heirs of a plutocratic family are the exceptions.
You must know that they are not alone. They are all the hope of the family's future. They have the obligation to protect themselves and should not put themselves in danger.
However, the higher the risk, the greater the reward.
After this battle, in Mr. Lu's mind, not only is he equal to Celine, but he is definitely not too different.
"Scanning."
"The mecha's power system is normal."
"Weapon loaded to full capacity."
The electronic reminder sound echoed in everyone's ears.
This is the weapon secretly developed by Luo Che Biology. Experts assert that if you look at the entire Nemesis galaxy, you cannot find a more advanced model than it.
The only pity is that I have never experienced actual combat.
Now, the opportunity has come.
It's not a test without any danger on the proving ground, but a real combat.
"Protect the mecha's database, it's second only to life."
"Attention is the next best thing to life."
Lu Li emphasized again while closing the protective shield.
"Sir, you mean that once your life is threatened, you can give up your data and everything to protect yourself, right?"
The speaker is a frontline defender with good physical fitness. As long as the conditions are right, he can break free of the genetic lock.
Of course, you don't need to look to know his identity, because the security personnel of Roche Biotech will not say such things.
"That's right."
Lu Li glanced at the soldier, "Although first-hand combat data is important to the company, it will never be higher than life."
After being with capitalists for so long, no, it should be said, being a capitalist for such a long time, Lu Li has learned how to use stage talk skillfully.
"Thanks."
The soldier nodded. He didn't care whether what the new commander said was for the occasion or not. As long as he said it face to face, it was enough.
"Fight hard, complete the mission, fight hard, protect yourself."
The slogans once shouted by Allied soldiers during Operation Market Garden echoed in the hangar.
Lu Li didn't say anything more and directly activated the power system of the mecha.
To be honest, it deserves the name of mecha.
Energy system, transmission system, skeleton system, armor system, weapon system, plug-in system, perception system, master control system, control system, and life support system.
Everything is available.
The moment the spacecraft opened a hatch, Lu Li controlled the mecha and flew out first.
Since he was lying in the single cockpit, he couldn't feel the night breeze and everything was calm.
In front of him, a touch panel composed of a simulated light screen displays various indicators and equipment status.
They may seem complex, but even those without prior special training need not worry about being unable to operate them.
"system."
"I am here."
From this moment on, Lu Li was also a man with a system. He ordered: "Give the flight path and automatically adjust the angle."
"receive."
As soon as he finished speaking, the world in Lu Li's eyes changed slightly. Virtual arrows that did not block his sight appeared from time to time, marking the direction of travel.
"Warning, strange fluctuations detected."
"The radar has been automatically turned on."
"No anomaly detected."
"The optical imager has been automatically turned on."
With constant beeps in his ears, Lu Li switched his visual angle twice in a row and finally discovered something unusual.
In the sand below, countless lines undulate. Radar equipment cannot scan them, and the human eye cannot capture them.
If the system hadn't reminded them, Lu Li would have been able to spot them only by getting closer, using a visual system that was completely different from ordinary people.
"Sir, what should we do with the invisible Zerg troops below?"
Will contacted Lu Li in the battle channel.
"Send the coordinates to the attack ship and let them blow this thing up into the sky."
After all, mechas are individual weapons with limited ammunition capacity. Although their firepower is fierce, there is no need to waste it here.
The target of this trip is the plasmaworm.
Only by killing the Zerg air defense forces can the fleet take off again and take advantage of its technological advantages to conduct a new round of air strikes.
"Keep moving forward. The plasma bugs are large and move slowly. Every time they fire a plasma cannon, they need to be charged. Follow the system prompts to avoid damage immediately."
"Compared to unreliable combat experience, the system is more trustworthy."
This was obviously a warning to several soldiers with military backgrounds. Lu Li was worried that they would act based on experience, and the quality of the soldiers at the forward outpost was worrying. They had only experienced war in the past half year. Instead of trusting their intuition, it was better to be a tool man.
"Attention, there is a jumping Zerg 652 meters ahead."
"The distance is too close, it is recommended to use energy beam daggers."
Energy beam dagger: Through a special energy supply device, a swarm of high-energy scattered particles appears on the blade of the dagger.
In addition, the system said it was a dagger, but the body was a little over six meters long. Well, compared to the seven-meter-high mecha, it could barely be called a dagger.
The first time he controlled a heavy mecha in actual combat, Lu Li did not lose his temper. Unlike the others behind him, he was definitely a god-level player. He could perform unparalleled operations by himself without the need for system equipment.
Before the prompt sounded, the dagger shining with a strange light was pulled out and slashed directly in front of him.
In an instant, the jumper's transparent metal wings broke, and dark green liquid splashed out.
[Low acidic liquid, can be ignored]
【Crisis Resolved】
A huge insect corpse fell to the ground.
The crew on the ship watching the battle through the distant viewing equipment shouted, and with one simple and beautiful blow, the enemy's head was easily taken off.
Great momentum.
Later, more than a dozen jumpers came around and gave him his head.
They either engaged in close combat or launched micro-missiles. In just a few encounters, they were eliminated by the mecha troops.
"It's almost like a holographic game. It's completely fool-proof."
In the individual cockpit, someone held the control stick and gave a pertinent evaluation.
