Chapter 114 Unexpected Rescue
There is no problem with the logic of the radical plan.
The swarm is huge, but its lower species are easily wiped out.
Ordinary people can use firearms as long as they receive certain training. It can easily destroy a single low-level Zerg.
Not to mention experienced human soldiers on the battlefield and senior scavengers.
As long as they have enough ammunition and keep a safe distance, they can destroy many low-level insect swarms.
Not to mention the psykers.
Therefore, on the battlefield, the battle loss ratio between humans and insect swarms is very exaggerated.
Unless the ammunition is exhausted or the terrain is disadvantageous. Human defenders can often eliminate dozens of times the insect swarm.
However, due to the characteristics of killing insect swarms that devour biomass, the number of insect swarms is increasing day by day. The intensity is getting higher and higher, and more and more advanced Zerg species are born.
Human beings have finally eliminated insect swarms that were dozens or even hundreds of times larger than themselves.
Next time, we may have to face thousands of times the number of insect swarms.
The shelters that were breached were all under continuous siege by insect swarms.
The flaw was exposed and was torn apart.
After the insect swarms hunted enough humans, they began to devour the corpses of their dead compatriots and humans, and then gave birth to more insect swarms!
Unless the ability of the insect swarm to devour biomass is completely cut off, humans will be consumed to death sooner or later. Ammo will eventually run out, as will stamina and psychic energy.
For example, war worms, hunting worms, abyss worms, and strategist worms.
This kind of advanced and elite Zerg, the elite Ye Bushou can kill them relatively easily.
But if the number increases, ten, fifty, hundreds or even thousands of them appear together.
Company captain-level experts may be killed by force.
If that time comes, it will be useless for the Mad King to take action.
Therefore, the idea of the radicals is to eliminate a large number of insect swarms as quickly as possible before they develop, and to burn the bodies of all humans and insect swarms who died in the battle.
This will use a large number of reinforcements and psykers from Border City No. 1 and 2 outside the disaster fog, as well as the lava mining city in the rear.
This will reverse the ratio of combat power between humans and insect swarms within the mist.
Directly use the power of crushing to actively attack the insect swarm!
As long as the insect swarm cannot recycle biomass, they will not be able to fight more and more. In the end, the mist master can only become a bare commander.
When humans find it and kick it, they can suppress the mist and even capture a mist master!
But the cost of this plan is that most of the human power from the outside world will enter the mist.
The restricted area, which the outside world is watching eagerly, will not just watch.
It is very possible for the army to directly press in.
Maybe humans suppressed the disaster fog. When we came out, we saw that all the huge cities were destroyed.
Therefore, conservatives believe that the radicals' plan is too conservative and will cost too much time and money.
Co-Author Is This What It Means to Be Conservative?
Conservatives believe the plan requires too much manpower and is risky.
Since there are risks, why not make a big bet!
There is no need for excessive external reinforcements, but to gather the human combat power currently in the mist. Subsequently, use all high-risk taboos, and proactively twist taboos when necessary.
You know, if so many taboos get out of control at the same time, they will wipe out both the humans and the insect swarms in the mist.
Class B forbidden objects are dangerous existences that can cause large-scale damage and can even affect the entire giant city.
Just the ice and snow witch, a Class B taboo that Li Yelai knew about, would turn the city in the mist into a cold ice field.
Certain dangerous taboo objects can also instantly reverse the forms of creatures within the range.
This will force the insect swarm to launch a general attack, and may even lead to the Mist Master taking action.
At that time, you can ask the old mad king to take action.
The core idea of conservatives is that we must either die together or kill humanity before we die together!
Even if humans fail, they will take the initiative to lose control of all forbidden objects. Drag the swarm of insects to be buried with you!
Considering that the intelligence of the insect swarm is not low, this plan may also evolve into a deterrent method.
Of course, the price for conservative guys is also high.
Not to mention the difficulty of a general attack, just by gathering combat power, it is possible that more shelters will be breached due to the mobilization of combat power.
Moreover, the insect swarm will evolve rapidly and is likely to evolve resistance to forbidden objects.
For example, the Ice Witch will freeze the surrounding space step by step after losing control. It is said that it can reduce the temperature within the range to more than 70 degrees below zero. The core area is even lower, and even the psychic barrier cannot stop it. But if the swarm evolves frost-resistant Zerg, it will be in vain and only humans will be harmed.
This is a more risky plan than the radicals. But at least it won't affect the giant human cities outside.
Three results in total.
The best result is that humans successfully induce or coerce the mist master, and the old mad king will kill him with one strike!
The next result was that the main force of mankind was wiped out, and mankind used out-of-control taboos, and perished together with the insect swarm.
The worst outcome is that the human race is wiped out, the forbidden objects are adapted to the insect swarm, and the mist master continues to grow.
Li Yelai was a little stunned for a moment. Both methods were crazy to him.
One has the risk of the giant city being wiped out, and the other has the risk of the entire human race being wiped out in the mist.
"Then what plan was chosen in the end?" Li Yelai asked.
"No decision has been made yet." Cheese shook his head and responded: "We currently want to find the exact location of the mist master through the strategist insect. For now, that's it."
Li Yelai nodded silently. This was the safest and the cost was relatively minimal. But the success rate is very low. If the situation does not improve after a period of time, humans will have to take the risk.
Cheese continued: "By the way, after you faced the disappearance of the mountain dragon, your sister's mood fluctuated violently, but she successfully awakened as a psyker."
Li Yelai was startled, then smiled bitterly and said, "It scared her. Does she know that I'm still alive?"
"She is not the only one who is frightened." Cheese said softly: "Starfire and the others are very sad, and the captain even sent out multiple night-time teams to search for you."
"I'm sorry." Li Yelai responded: "I don't have any good way to inform you. How is my sister now?"
"A handler specifically informed Captain Yinhuo and conveyed it to her. She already knew that you were safe." Cheese responded: "Fortunately, Captain Yinhuo did not tell her that you were missing again. Otherwise, It is designated that you are not as good as you.
However, Xinghuo and the others didn't get the news in time that you were alive again, so they gave you the two tributes they arranged. Finally, after hearing that you were still alive, Starfire said that you were jumping and doing sit-ups repeatedly. So he got angry and ate all the tributes, which resulted in a bad stomach. "
These guys really remembered to prepare tributes for themselves.
Li Yelai smiled.
Then, curiously asked: "What path has Yun Yan awakened, and what ability has she awakened?"
Li Yelai knows the virtues of his sister. She has been at home all year round and yearns for many spiritual paths.
The doll held up the billboard and replied [It is the water temperature control of the zero path (*｀)]
"Water temperature control?" Li Yelai raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, water can be boiled and vaporized, or it can be frozen into ice. As long as it has water, she can adjust the temperature voluntarily by touching it." Cheese responded.
[This is a very convenient ability. Pour in a tub of cold water and you can take a hot bath with just a touch of your finger. Normally, food can also be heated. Useful ability for home travel, hehe (**)]
Of course, the doll is actually just a metaphor.
This ability actually has considerable destructive power. You must know that blood contains 85% water content. If he could control the water temperature in his target's body, Li Yunyan could completely cook or freeze him.
Of course, the premise is to penetrate the opponent's psychic barrier and touch the opponent's blood.
Moreover, Li Yelai did not want Li Yunyan to participate in the battle. If possible, it would be best for Li Yunyan to stay at the level of a psychic. As long as you don't awaken, the probability of being distorted is reduced.
Every time Li Yelai wakes up, he is affected by those virtual realm powers. He didn't want Li Yunyan to experience it.
"Currently, the official asked her to provide hot water for the shelter. And began to teach her how to use psychic barriers and air stepping." Cheese seemed to see Li Yelai's worries, and said: "Don't worry, she is in a logistics position and will not Taking part in the fight.”
"That's good." Li Yelai breathed lightly.
Afterwards, Cheese and Doll left the ward. They also have their own tasks and don't have much free time.
After they left, Li Yelai did not stay in the ward. Although his arm injury had not fully recovered, he should be able to help.
So, he found his armor and three-pointed two-edged halberd in the ward.
The extraordinary armor given by Jing Lin had many scratches and wounds on it after going through previous battles.
As for the three-pointed two-edged halberd, some curled blades appeared.
Li Yelai wanted to find craftsmen to repair it. This shelter was the original Dongcheng branch.
The reason why the Dongcheng branch is located underground is because it is surrounded by buildings on the ground.
It is to serve as a shelter when necessary.
Today, with underground bunkers and ground defenses, it houses more than 100,000 people, and nearly 20,000 troops are stationed here.
Guarded by more than five hundred psykers, it is one of the largest and safest shelters currently.
Li Yelai walked through the somewhat crowded corridors and rest areas and found the equipment area in the branch.
and placed his weapons and armor on the counter.
But instead of seeing the staff member who bargained with him and finally provided him with melted ammunition for free, he saw another civilian employee with a strange face.
"Comrade Night General, thank you for your hard work. We will repair your equipment as soon as possible. We cannot recycle your big black umbrella melt launcher, so we will build a new one for you as soon as possible. Don't worry, it's free." The civilian staff chuckled. , and asked Li Yelai to bring her body data, and planned to modify the pierced armor that didn't fit well.
Li Yelai hesitated for a moment and asked, "Where is employee No. 872? Has he taken a break?"
The civilian staff heard this and responded in a low voice: "When the disaster fog broke out, the team he participated in the escort encountered a swarm of insects."
Li Yelai responded with silence. Although the civilian personnel were civilians, they had all undergone rigorous training and were equipped with guns.
When the disaster broke out, he, who usually worked hard, became a warrior without hesitation. In order to escort people to the shelter, he took the initiative to lure away the insect swarm. In the end, he died surrounded by the insect swarm. Officials could only find his torn clothing and blood-stained work badge.
"For the giant city, for humanity." The civilian staff whispered.
"For the giant city, for humanity!" Li Yelai took a deep breath and responded firmly.
The equipment department didn't let Li Yelai wait long before getting the equipment ready.
Li Yelai put on a more fitting armor, put the brand-new three-pointed two-edged halberd into a new big black umbrella, and carried a bag of hot-melt ammunition on his back.
In the handler's waiting area, waiting for orders.
Li Yelai saw Jing Lin here who was also wearing armor.
Jing Lin now wears an eyepatch to cover his left eye.
Coupled with the armor, he looked like a general who had been shot blind. But in fact, Jing Lin used his ability in his left eye and temporarily lost the vision in his left eye.
When he saw Li Yelai, he was happy, and then said in annoyance: "I just realized you were awake. Where are the cheese and the doll?"
"Are you looking for them?" Li Yelai was startled. I thought that Jing Lin and the two of them were not very familiar with each other.
"Tsk, I still didn't get to see the show. Damn it, I should have come back earlier!"
Jing Lin complained, his tone full of regret.
Li Yelai was confused when he heard this.
These days, Jing Lin, a member of Yao Qing Jing's family, has been cooperating with the authorities. The relationship between the two parties has become closer.
In order to solve the food problem, Jinglin and the official handlers went out to hunt insect swarms and extraordinary creatures.
There was no way, the disaster and fog came suddenly, and the shelter was unable to store enough food in front of such a large number of people.
A lot of food in the giant city was devoured by the swarm of insects before it could be brought back to the shelter.
The outside world can airdrop food into the disaster fog, but in many cases, the insect swarm will get there first. became their nourishment.
In order to solve the increasingly serious food problem, officials began to attack insect swarms and extraordinary creatures.
Swarms of insects can also be eaten. Who says that only swarms of insects can eat humans? Humans can also eat insects!
But the swarm seemed to be aware of the human thoughts.
Within a few days, toxins that are not easily decomposed by high temperatures have evolved in the body.
Officials can only turn their attention to those extraordinary creatures who are still alive. There are many extraordinary creatures from the Doomsday Forest that have been swallowed into the mist. Although many were hunted by the insect swarm, there were still a certain number of extraordinary creatures surviving.
In this way, the biomass obtained by the insect colony can be reduced, and the food crisis can also be alleviated.
Therefore, each group attacked one after another to hunt the extraordinary creatures before the insect swarm.
Just now, Jing Lin and a group of handlers hunted down a Leia flying dragon that was close to the fifth level.
Brought back a large amount of flying dragon meat and extraordinary materials.
Although he is a member of an aristocratic family, he is indeed fighting for humanity now.
The official members' view of Jing Lin has improved a lot. Li Yelai also changed his view a lot.
While chatting with Jing Lin, Li Yelai heard a commotion.
It is said that the search and rescue team brought back a seriously injured comrade.
Thinking of those friends, Li Yelai hurried over.
However, he actually saw an acquaintance.
Thunder!
