Juggernaut: Rise of the Zerg

Chapter 287 Mira’s Trouble
It is definitely not difficult for the Virgilians to dismember a planet.Of course, dismemberment is not destruction, it is actually a technical job.

The Zerg had done similar things back then, but their methods were relatively crude. Due to the insufficient level of science and technology at the time, in order to achieve the goal as quickly as possible, Visser used the method of blasting from the inside. In the end, it took a lot of effort to get rid of the Zerg. The entire planet became what the Zerg wanted.

But for Weiji, there is no need to be so troublesome.

Although the empire does not often do this kind of thing, in its long history, starting from mastering more and more powerful technologies, and after launching wars against intelligent races, this method has often been used for those civilizations that resisted hard. kind of deterrence.

Of course, compared with wartime deterrence, this time is still different, but the problem is not big.The Empire has equipment specialized in this work. To be precise, it is a group of very large engineering ships affiliated with Imperial Heavy Industries!
This time the dismemberment of the planet is essentially a scientific research activity, so it is naturally more precise.After Feli determined the demand, he had already ordered the transfer of a heavy industry team that was originally preparing to carry out industrial development in the colonial galaxy. They have been engaged in planet development for a long time. Their corporate history can even be traced back to the ignorant period of civilization, and they have extremely rich experience.

After explaining the needs, Feili got an exact time.

From the start of the work to the initial stabilization of the final environment, it only takes 220 or four Oridays at the fastest!

For a planet, this speed is simply terrifying, especially if it is done in a "gentle" way.

And this is the strength of Weigi. The strength of civilization lies in all aspects, and this is just the tip of the iceberg.

If Visser could pay attention to this place at this time, he would definitely find that this planet looks familiar!

The same living planet, the same size, the same magnetic field anomaly...

It had even anticipated what Feili could dig out.

Over the years, the Zerg have not come to any definite conclusion as to what purpose the internal functional structures of this thing are used to achieve. One of the important reasons is that the many structures scattered in the core of the earth seem to It forms a complex whole, and once it is dismantled, it will stop its original function.

As for another reason, it is because the Zerg destructively dismantled it during the original research. Although there is no way to do this, in fact, it is inevitable to dismantle it completely and precisely. The structure had irreversible effects.

The combination of the two leads to difficulties.

But this time, although the construction process of Imperial Heavy Industries was equally fast, it was indeed a meticulous workmanship. While maintaining the overall progress, they also ensured to the greatest extent that they could complete the target as soon as they discovered it. control!

After all, this is the only valuable clue discovered by the empire in the past ten years. This may even be related to the life safety of countless citizens of the empire, so they have no choice but to be cautious.

It didn't take long for the underground explorer "Saidi", which went deep into the planet's underground for close detection, to report the latest discovery.

"Saidi", part of the Imperial Heavy Industries Group, is a large extreme work machine. If necessary, it can even complete construction at close range to the star!

The pressure and temperature deep underground pose no threat to it at all. Above the core of the earth, everything is "shallow".

Therefore, it went straight to the depths of the ground and found the source of the change in the magnetic field in the first place!
With the first discovery, not long after, these components hidden inside the hot core of the earth were fully exposed to the observation of the imperial research ship. With the help of the detectors that went deep underground, the entire planet no longer had any knowledge of Vege. There are so many mysteries, and the only thing we don’t know is the role these obvious man-made objects play in this planet.

The rest of the matter is much simpler. A large number of engineering equipment from the Imperial Heavy Industries has landed on the surface of the planet. Feli is obviously much more cautious than Visser back then. He has ordered to ensure the integrity of these components as much as possible. At the same time, observe its specific effects from the outside.

Without this order, in order to complete the task as quickly as possible, the construction personnel of Imperial Heavy Industries would not hesitate to use extremely precise directional space generators to bring the entire underground structure to the surface as soon as possible!
Although those outer armors are extremely dense and hard, they cannot resist the shear force from space, and some damage is inevitable.

.......................................

Here, Veggie is dealing with clues that may be closely related to itself, while on the other side, the warships from the Hero Federation have continuously made 426 Oriday-long space jumps in the real universe.

And their goals have become increasingly clear.

Different from wormhole passage, if the energy of Hero Federation's space jump is sufficient and the mass is relatively small, the distance that each jump can cross is quite far. Perhaps only Zhuna's navigation state can compare with it. .

It is actually not an easy task to complete positioning from a long distance. After all, the distance between the two sides is a large number of unexplored galaxies. It is a place that is far enough even for the Hero Federation.

In the explored universe, no explorer has ever reached there. The universe is so big that even the three major civilizations can only occupy a small corner. In that endless deep space, how many secrets and how many images are there? There is no way to know that existences like the three major civilizations are dominating the world at this moment.

Maybe there will never be any existence that can complete the exploration of the entire universe. After all, in theory, the "edge" of the universe is expanding faster than any known navigation method, and nothing can catch up with it to "grow". footsteps.

The delusional desire to rule the entire universe is an impossible thing even for the Hero Federation. As civilization continues to move forward, what they need to consider is not even how to rule the universe, but how to rule the universe in the endless and distant future. , when the stars in the universe begin to extinguish, how to ensure the "survival" of the ethnic group.

And this is actually related to what they are doing now to some extent!
The existence of the intelligent life Apocalypse was indeed the work of the Federation, but it was not just an ordinary intelligent life. It had no reason to betray the civilization it was attached to. Using idealistic adjectives such as "wolf ambition", It is absolutely unreasonable to describe an intelligent life with extremely strict logic.

Among the federal top-secret files, there is a remaining document about the events of that year that has been preserved. It records part of the information about Apocalypse. What is shocking is that, according to the records, Apocalypse was knowing that the Federation had counter-attacks. On the premise of controlling their own means, they launched this war called the "Omnic Rebellion"!

The meaning represented by this is thought-provoking.There has always been a view among the higher echelons of civilization that the Apocalypse of intelligent life seemed to have discovered something before launching the rebellion...

This is not groundless. Some relevant evidence can be detected from some secrets. Over the years, through continuous research and speculation, the Federation gradually believes that its "discovery" may be related to its own "existence". form".

What was discovered this time, an intelligent existence that was almost in line with Apocalypse based on the underlying logic, almost caused an uproar within the Federation!
Although they showed nothing in front of the Weegis, as if this operation was just an ordinary scientific expedition, in fact, the entire federation was making plans for this and putting it into action. Its priorities and The importance is extremely high. Even the actions against the old rival Vege Empire must serve this matter to a large extent!
Their goal is to "catch" this unknown intelligent life and conduct a detailed and comprehensive study on it, because it must be related to the apocalypse that year!
Zerg In 2159, Mira, who had been entangled with the Zerg for decades, ushered in the enemy she had been waiting for.

During these 32 years, the insect swarm has never stopped expanding. While maintaining a high-intensity war with Mira, they are also rapidly expanding their sphere of influence.

Endless Zerg warships are heading towards galaxies in the observable universe. They are either deserted areas or have local civilizations. After the Zerg swarm arrived, they all became Zerg territory.Of course, during the war, both Mira and the Zerg had their own gains in war technology. They were both using the other's superior technology to improve their own strength.

At this moment, Mira has long given up on "erasing" the marks in her body. Over the years, she has been building a "model" of the enemy and making plans.

However, until the enemy actually arrived around the battlefield through space jump, it finally realized that delaying the insect swarm here in order to resist the unknown enemy might not be of much use.

Because what they want to do, the insect swarm cannot stop them at all! The "diversion of trouble to the east" plan was almost a complete failure.

Its operating logic began to become chaotic the moment after the opponent appeared. Apparently those warships invaded the quantum network covering the entire battlefield!
And until now, the insect swarm has not even figured out what happened and is still attacking crazily. But Zero, who occasionally pays attention here, is shocked to find that Mira's originally extremely determined resistance has become full of loopholes in a certain moment!

Immediately, he discovered the three extra warships on the battlefield that definitely did not belong to either side!

How to limit the activities of an intelligent life?This time the Hero Federation almost gave their answer.

That is, start from the root, influence its logical behavior, and at the same time master the "hardware" where it currently lives.

In layman's terms, while interfering with the other party's "network speed", it means to find and unplug Mira's network cable, and lock her "soul" in her "body".

Of course, it is extremely difficult to implement this under Mira's nose, at least Zero and his Zerg will definitely not be able to do it.Quantum network is not the development direction of the insect swarm.

The federal warship, which had been prepared for a long time, had already exerted influence on Mira at the first opportunity.At this moment, Mira is engaged in a special battle, a battle that is under the eyes of the Zerg, but they cannot participate at all!
It must break away from the endless torrent of data blocking its eyes before the other party controls its "body", complete the transfer of consciousness, and temporarily escape from the crisis at hand.

Otherwise, it won't be long before it turns into a real caged bird!

Mira has simulated the opponent's use of such methods more than once. Therefore, it has also prepared corresponding plans. However, with its current methods, although it has tried its best, its effect is very limited.

The generation gap in technology prevents its potential from being truly unleashed, and its "body" limits its capabilities!

The other party's war with it on the information network is entirely relying on more powerful hardware to fight it, but in terms of real flexibility, there is a gap with it.

But this does not change the situation in which Mira quickly fell into trouble!

At this moment, of course it has recognized the opponent's extremely conspicuous symbol, the Hero Federation!

Even with Mira's strict logic, it is difficult to imagine that she just sent a group of mechanical battleships to stay away from the insect swarm, but that it would be noticed by her real old master, the Hero Federation!
But the situation has come to this, and it has no other choice but to fight.It may have little hope, but it has already escaped from the cage and is absolutely unwilling to return to the "cage"!

At this moment, the insect swarm has stopped attacking, because the mechanical fleet belonging to Mira has also completely stopped resisting.Zero was not very interested in destroying some junk. After collecting a complete batch of "specimens", he shifted his focus.

In order to get out of that restricted state as soon as possible, Mira no longer had any extra computing power to use to fight the Zerg.

From Zero's perspective, although it was unclear what happened, it was obvious that Mira no longer seemed to have the intention to continue fighting the swarm.Zero didn't know what happened to Mira, but the swarm of insects advanced from the front battlefield without any resistance.

Instead, the sudden appearance of warships in the star system attracted his attention.

When they appeared, Zero didn't even have any perception. This was because he didn't pay much attention to this war for a long time, but at the same time, the way they appeared also told him that the other party's technological level was definitely far beyond Zerg!

Over the years, as the insect swarm expanded.Zero no longer has any fear of these so-called advanced civilizations. Because the Zerg race is now almost impossible to be exterminated, he does not need to worry about the existence of the race, let alone his own life and death.

Therefore, for those races whose technological level is obviously much higher than that of the Zerg, Zero can only express joy, because its appearance may represent further hope for the Zerg!

So at the next moment, the insect swarm launched a brazen attack.

The increasingly powerful space cannon and the invisible flow of antimatter particles all headed towards each other at a certain moment!

This is an attack and a temptation.

However, the other party remained motionless. They were obviously doing something, but the swarm knew nothing about it.

But their overwhelming attacks were like a drop of water blending into the ocean, without causing any ripples.

Zero observed familiar but completely different spatial fluctuations. In an instant, he understood the opponent's defense methods.

This does not seem to be an enemy that the Zerg can defeat, even if their number is a drop in the bucket compared to the Zerg swarm, it is an exaggeration.

However, Zero had no intention of giving up.The insect swarms on the battlefield are gathering and surrounding, and various attack methods are also being prepared. The opponent only has three battleships, not to mention that one of them does not look like a spaceship specialized in combat.

Zero asked the Zerg swarm to prepare the highest-power space interference equipment currently available to the Zerg swarm, and prepared to try the opponent's "space shield".
