Juggernaut: Rise of the Zerg

Chapter 296 The First Raid

As the results of the Zerg scientific research team are transformed into military applications, Sk's fleet has also been strengthened recently.Since arriving here from the rear, it encountered the Federation invasion before even fighting Mira. It was completely unable to intervene in the subsequent small-scale war, so it simply actively participated in the research and development of technology, and fought with Sars and many other brainworms. Shine and release heat to catch up with the federal science and technology system.

Of course, it didn't forget to build a comfortable environment for itself.

Very different from other Cerebrates, Sk always likes to surround himself with a green and beautiful living planet. On the contrary, he does not have much interest in the space fortress built by the Zerg themselves.For it, those bare and desolate planets have no attraction.

This can be regarded as a small hobby and a pastime in leisure time. For the size of the Zerg, this is nothing at all.

But at this moment, through long-distance observations by galaxy detectors, representatives of the three major civilizations are also puzzled by the abnormal actions of the insect swarm.

Before that, they viewed the Zerg as a large, unintelligent creature with an instinct to plunder.

It can be judged that the other party has a strict and unified command system, but all the time the other party has shown only destruction and destruction.

So, what does this act of construction represent?

This is a very simple inference. Since there is construction, there will be demand. So what is the demand?

They thought of a biological behavior—nesting!
Thinking that the Zerg here is so special and its behavior is also different, although it is impossible to be sure, they don't need any evidence!
The Colva Empire's Lieutenant General Guevlar, who was the first fleet commander of the alliance at the time, accepted the advice from the civilized think tank and decided to integrate the fleet and use the space jump to take advantage of this opportunity to launch a surprise attack here.

Whether this is the location of the "important individual" of this race, you will find out once you try it!
Since the start of the exploration, the alliance has obtained information about insect swarms. They finally discovered something special. They were unwilling to waste this opportunity with a detector that would most likely find nothing. Therefore, they dispatched a large-scale warship. Going there has become an inevitable choice.

And Sker still knows nothing about it.

The expansion of the insect swarm still has not touched the opponent's interstellar "defense line". Even Zero doesn't know what measures they have taken, and Skok naturally doesn't know either.

It came here to absorb the knowledge of intelligent races, so naturally, like other brainworms, it sat here personally.

And it will soon experience its second crisis of insect growth after the predator civilization back then.

………………

In Zerg 2386, Imperial Vice Admiral Guevlar completed the fleet integration and expanded the organization on the original basis. While ensuring the continuous construction of the "defense line", he also deployed a force capable of defeating the intelligence in a short time. The fleet of mid-zero swarms broke into the central core area of ​​the star system!

After everything was ready, with an unimaginable energy consumption in an instant, this "pieced together" [-] imperial warships entered the space jump provided by the Federation with precise positioning and technical support, and disappeared. trace.

42 Oridays later, when hundreds of millions of insect swarms in the interior and edges of the star system were almost dormant and stagnant, accompanied by powerful and violent space fluctuations, the first imperial warship reflected the light of the star, Appeared in the empty space at the edge of the galaxy.

Then came more unified battleships!It is better to call it a combat unit than a battleship, because although Korva's manpower is cheap, it will not be wasted in such a war. They are undoubtedly unmanned. As for intelligence connection and information support, Provided by the many detectors lurking around the star system.

At this moment, the entire battlefield is already enveloped by the Alliance!
The opportunity is rare, so they are naturally prepared!

Sk's reaction was not slow. As early as when the space changed drastically, it had already sensed something was wrong through the nearby Zerg units, and immediately began to wake up the sleeping Zerg swarm.

But Golawal did not give it the slightest chance to organize the resistance of the insect swarm. Their mobility of the insect swarm was unparalleled, and their offensive and defensive ends far exceeded the Zerg technology system. Although the number of Zerg combat forces present here is terrifying, the effective There are very few attacks!

What's more, this time they are not just two frigates, and they don't carry any burdens. There are more than 2000 battleships. Even if they are not the latest main battleships, they are not something that the insect swarm can stop!

The Zerg units that hurriedly gathered in one direction and launched an attack were like a waterfall flowing down the river. However, the Alliance warships that moved forward forcefully opened a passage through it. The Zerg units that had completed their assembly were all killed or wounded.

At this moment, Si Ke had already realized something in his heart.

The other party seems to be coming for me!
After the last time he faced the predators, leaving behind a large number of Zerg units and fleeing in panic, but the opponent did not reach his planet at all, Sk was deeply ashamed of escaping, and he was still worried about his failure to personally destroy the opponent.

But this time, it clearly knew that even though it was in front of its huge and elite Hive Fleet, they could even easily tear apart the defense lines of intelligent races, but if it didn't escape, it was very likely that it would never leave again. No more falling.

Zero had already diverted his attention shortly after the incident. Such a large-scale military operation was unprecedented, and it was impossible for him to turn a blind eye.

Of course, facing the other party's active invasion this time, he had nothing to do.

The Zerg units here can indeed be called the truly "elite" fighting force of the Zerg today, but they are obviously unable to stop the opponent from advancing.

Although a big reason for this is that the insect swarm was not prepared in advance and failed to complete the assembly, but with the opponent's overwhelming advantage of technology, it is difficult to say how much effect they can play after completing the assembly!
Sk has already launched its own escape plan. While the main force of the Zerg is trying its best to block the enemy invasion, its "car" is also moving at full speed towards the entrance of the wormhole inside the galaxy.

In order to facilitate movement, Sk's station is naturally established in the wormhole galaxy, which provides one of the few hopes for its escape.

If you use normal speed to stay away from a massive celestial body and then start the super-light engine, not to mention whether the opponent has tracking capabilities, with their mobility, they may be caught up by the opponent before they can reach the edge of the galaxy and successfully enter the super-light state.

However, Sk's last hope was completely shattered by a powerful space cannon invisible to the naked eye.

The Zerg unit that opened the wormhole was shattered and died in an instant due to the violent spatial mutation, and the wormhole passage was also closed at this moment. Obviously, it is impossible for the opponent to ignore such an obvious loophole!

Seeing that it was impossible to escape, Skok no longer stopped the other party from advancing. The Zerg warships behind them dispersed at this moment and sailed in different directions.Mixed in with many Zerg units, Sk tried to escape from here.

But previous actions have exposed the traces of these Zerg warships. Within the intelligence system at the rear, they have already been marked from "among the armies"!The Alliance's fleet began to disperse, turning a blind eye to the fleeing Zerg warships in front of them, with a very clear goal of encircling Sk's fleet.

Due to the swift action of the opponent, even though 24 Oridays have passed, there are still a large number of Zerg combat forces at the edge of the galaxy that have not arrived. The number of Zerg swarms guarding Sk in front of Sk is not small, but it is far from all of them. .

When it realizes that the opponent has locked onto itself and there is no way to escape, the insect swarm will make no more unnecessary moves.

Naturally, they would not wait to die, but Sk already knew that he probably couldn't leave anymore.

He is very clear about the situation of the Zerg, not to mention whether the nearby combat forces can arrive in time. Even if they can appear here, it will not have much effect on themselves who have been locked by the opponent.

The wormhole has been temporarily destroyed, and we are unable to enter the super-light state near large celestial bodies.All it can do is try its best to organize the insect swarms within the galaxy to resist!

Try your best to cause harm to the other party and delay the arrival of "that moment"!

Zero knew exactly what Sk was thinking, but he couldn't do much. The other party found Sk's existence and launched a surprise attack with obvious preparations. With the Zerg's current methods, there was no way to recover.

In the end, all Skok could do was to prevent the Zerg from having the first captured brain worm.

Sure enough, after another sixteen ori days, although the number of supporting Zerg units was still large, the damage caused to the opponent was extremely limited.

At this moment, the main force of the swarm has been left behind by the opponent, turning from blocker to pursuer. The opponent is keeping a close eye on the group of Zerg units where Sk is located.

The reaction of the insect swarm made Golawal more and more certain that his goal was unusual. Although the three major civilizations were unable to exterminate so many individual insects, they could seize the key "characters" protected by them among these low-level existences. "More than enough!"
But after all, they couldn't control everything. Just when they were about to succeed, Sk made the final choice of this period of his life.

As the Zerg warship carrying it was annihilated in the deep space of the universe, the most important goal of the alliance's raid also disappeared.

Looking at the cold space in front of him that returned to nothingness as the violent energy reaction disappeared, at this moment, Golawal was a little confused.

This possibility is indeed not impossible, but he did not expect that the other party would be so decisive.

With such energy intensity, it is impossible for the opponent to even have any remains left, so he must be completely dead.

It's a pity that this massive raid, except for annihilating a relatively small number of Zerg units, achieved very little.

It can't be said that there is nothing gained, because the insect swarm in front of them is still attacking us crazily, and some warships have been damaged due to the overload of the defense system.

It has to be said that the Zerg's weapon system has become much more powerful after upgrading over the years. Under the siege of absolute superiority, for the first time, the opponent's warships suffered visible losses.

Of course, to Golawal, this loss is insignificant, but it represents another important piece of information!

That's what they destroyed just now. I'm afraid it's not a key individual of the Zerg race, or maybe this race is a multi-leadership system!

No matter which one it is, it represents trouble. The feasibility of their "decapitation plan" requires more intelligence support and a more serious discussion.

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

The insect swarm in front of it naturally came under the control of the Hive Will as Sk's "return", and for the enemies within sight, it had only one simple idea, that is, to destroy it.

The insect swarm is still fighting against it, using its extremely large number to consume the opponent's power. A large number of insect swarms die every moment, but more insect swarms are coming to replace it.

The scene seemed a little overestimating. There were only two thousand battleships, but they were able to maintain large-scale destruction of the Zerg while advancing.

The biggest target has been lost here, and Golawal has no interest in entangled with the insect swarm. The imperial warships began to actively throw away the pursuing insect swarm, and soon they could no longer be traced.

This time, the not-so-long raid war has come to an end.

The Zerg lost more than 40 space units, and Gask returned to its "infant body", while the opponent's loss was only 22 battleships.

The battle damage ratio was very exaggerated, but Zero wasn't too angry.It is true that Sk's "death" caused a short-term gap in the Zerg's arrangement of brainworms on the front line, but the Zerg's progress in weapons still makes him happy.

The other party also failed to achieve its goal. It is almost impossible to capture the Zerg brainworm alive.Zero will not allow such a thing to happen, and Sk himself cannot allow it. When they cannot escape, "death" is their true destination.

After this battle, Zero finally realized that the other party had begun to use a large fleet to prevent the expansion of the swarm. It was foreseeable that the subsequent expansion process of the swarm would not be so smooth.

Before finding the other party's real ruling area, Zero didn't have much desire to go to war with the other party. Such a war would not yield much gain, and a large number of casualties would not bring the benefits it deserved. He preferred to go straight to Huanglong and injure the enemy. The other party is fundamental.

During this war, the insect swarm was able to capture a batch of broken materials, but it was also unrealistic to reversely deduce the opponent's scientific and technological achievements. Even if it could be achieved, the time required would not be too short.

Driven by Todd, the Zerg scientific research team is purposefully conducting research on space. With the Zerg's sufficient supply of materials and energy, as long as they can think of and design to meet the needs of the existing technological system, the Zerg will Basically, it can be satisfied, which is why the progress over the years has been so rapid.

Zero hopes that the next time they encounter this kind of invasion, the insect swarm will be able to actually kill the opponent through weapons, and they will not be completely behind the opponent!
