Juggernaut: Rise of the Zerg

Chapter 326
The biological invasion of the Zerg not only changed the environment of these living planets to a certain extent, but also directly controlled the fate of all individuals living on them.

Although the space channel is still operating and a large amount of materials and armed forces are still being transmitted here, many people who are still driving warships to fight against the Zerg know that although they have not yet been defeated, this place has actually fallen...

The meaning of their existence and fighting is to protect these living planets, but now it seems that it has been lost. There are Zerg mother nests breeding on it, many magnificent buildings have been overthrown, and a large number of compatriots have died in mourning.

The space-based weapons were completely disarmed, and the fleet mobilized combat power to return to support, but what they faced was a planet that had been "infected".

They cannot take the initiative to attack their compatriots. The huge muzzle can kill more than hundreds of thousands of surface units with just one flash. But is it a "cancer" that has been infected by the Zerg, or is it a citizen under civilized rule? Without screening and inspection, no one can easily judge.

The three major civilizations have speculated that the Zerg have the ability to infect intelligent creatures. After all, after so many years of monitoring, they have finally gained something.But in the end, it didn't stop the insect swarm from reaching this point. It wasn't that they were unprepared, it just couldn't be stopped.

With such an attack method, the Hero Federation has no effective means at such a distance. After the planet's self-defense completely fails, the outcome is already doomed.

The planet is still in the hands of the Federation. At least the expansion and development of the Zerg here are greatly restricted. Federation warships can attack the surface at any time.Before the main force completes the breakthrough, the enemy still has the final say here from a macro perspective.

The Hero Federation chose to land, of course under strict protection. It had only one purpose, and that was to truly understand the situation on this planet and recover losses for the Federation as much as possible!

But Zero did a great job this time. Even if the Zerg could not control such a large number of intelligent race individuals, he still allowed the Zerg lurkers to infect every individual almost equally. There was no need for control, it was just a kind of monitoring and protection.

This is the first time He has captured individuals from an entire planet of the Hero Federation. Massacre is really a waste of resources. Individuals of this advanced civilization almost perfectly meet the Zerg's rule requirements. Joining the Zerg scientific research team is undoubtedly a very appropriate decision. Whether they are willing or not is not within Zero's consideration.

The people of Velvet were once very reluctant, but now they are not working diligently?
The Federation did not discover this at the first time because these individuals were not really controlled by the Zerg, and those controlled by the Zerg were actually difficult to detect.

But as long as the biological level detection is detailed enough, a clue can still be found. Soon, the existence of the lurker was exposed to the Federation. However, before that, the insect swarm had almost conquered and infected the war star field. All living planets in it!

The resolute resistance of the three major civilizations has finally become meaningless. In fact, there is no essential difference between this place and other star fields.

Zero did not sit back and watch the Zerg lurkers being discovered and then solved by the other party. In his eyes, these intelligent individuals of higher civilizations who survived the war were the wealth of the Zerg. If they entered his pocket, there was no reason to give them away, even if The main force of the Zerg has not yet been able to completely break through the enemy's defenses and take control of the entire planet.

All infected individuals, even if the Zerg does not substantially affect their thinking, are equivalent to controlling their life and death. If Zero is not willing, they cannot leave.

What's more, they can't sit back and relax now on the surface of each planet. The insect nest has been established under the surface. The surface units of the insect race may rush out from any corner of the city or other places at any time!

Those huge warships cannot directly land on the planet. Only landing craft and aerospace planes can land on the surface. These "gadgets" cannot stop the "death charge" of the Zerg. Today's Zerg surface units, although their size is compared to that of space species, Countless times smaller, but if there are a huge number, their attack power may not be much weaker than that of a space battleship!
In space, the insect swarms are surging forward crazily, and the defense lines of the three major civilizations are retreating steadily. On the planet, they are also suffering from increasingly frequent harassment attacks by the insect swarms!

The people inside are not cooperating, and a very large number of individuals are actually affected. Those bugs that penetrate deep into the body not only affect their bodies, but also affect their thinking. Some individuals are promoting the "cruelty" of their mother civilization. "And injustice, this sounds ridiculous, but it happened right under their noses, and under the operation of all aspects, the effect was unexpectedly good!

Under the harassment, cooperation and protection of the insect swarm, it is usually difficult for these individuals to be punished. The pressure on the front is getting bigger and bigger, and the attacks on the space channels are also increasing. They may cut off support at any time, and the main force of the insect swarm may be cut off at any time. Breakthrough, then everything on this planet will no longer be decided by them.

Faced with this situation, the Hero Federation has gone through a long period of decision-making. There is no doubt that this planet is hopeless. It is difficult for these "surviving" individuals to be taken to the rear for resettlement. Their survival may mean the destruction of the Zerg. Many plans, after all, they are not just instinctive beasts.

As the swarm's attack became more and more fierce, the situation on the entire planet gradually became uncontrollable, and the Federation finally chose to evacuate.

After trying their best to recover the losses, they gave up here and the planet. At the same time, it was equivalent to announcing that all the ethnic groups here that were once affiliated with the Federation would be lost to the Zerg.

But this is not the only federal colony in this star field. Due to more complex changes, the situation in many areas has not developed so harmoniously. Often, the insect swarms can always attack and cause damage, and even directly break through the opponent's defense system, destroying the entire colonial galaxy. Incorporated into saturation artillery attack.

Of course, there are also planets that did not hesitate to choose to die together. They were the frontier colonies affiliated with the Vege Empire. After being infected by the Zerg, they did not hesitate to implement the ethnic cleansing plan. They did not have any reservations in the face of their own people. hand.

This may be the racial mysophobia mentioned in the information obtained from the minds of federal prisoners, Zero thought, but did not take it seriously.The other party has the right to make their own choices, especially if the swarm has no power to interfere.

But then again, in the battle with the three major civilizations, Zero can intuitively feel that the fleet of the Veggie Empire is often much stronger than the other two in terms of combat ability and organizational strength. , relatively difficult to deal with.

During this attack, they also resisted the most fiercely. Even though they had implemented the ethnic cleansing plan, they still did not retreat like the Hero Federation. Instead, they increased their troops here!
This is actually a good thing for the Zerg, and Zero is indispensable.Going against the retreat direction of the Korva Empire and the Hero Federation, the Vege Empire continues to increase its troops here.From the intelligence, Zero knew that the situation facing the other party should be the worst among the three major civilizations. Not only did they have to face extremely powerful "foreign invaders" like the Zerg, but they also had to deal with long-term internal turmoil.But at this moment, when other civilizations were retreating, they seemed to be unaware of the impact of the insect tide, and pretended to be fighting the Zerg here long ago.

Brave or stupid, for Zero, even among all the civilizations encountered in the history of the Zerg, they are special.

But the Zerg swarm will not stop attacking because of any special situation. While continuing to penetrate deeper, the Zerg swarm still has enough power to fight the Vege Empire, and even continue to invade the hinterland of Korva and the Hero Federation.

If Zero was still a little unsure before, then after experiencing a war, he is completely convinced that even if the three major civilizations unite now, it is impossible to defeat the Zerg!
Of course, they can escape. The swarm has no ability to completely prevent this, and Zero has no intention in this regard. However, it has to be said that the real war has just begun, but Zero has already seen victory.He could not find a way for his opponent to effectively deal with the advance of the insect swarm, nor did he think that the insect swarm would be defeated in a frontal attack.

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

Mira did not actively participate in the swarm's war, but it almost watched everything.

From previous wars, Mira's gains are not small. Thanks to its own particularity, it is often able to obtain many secrets. Therefore, the mechanical fleet is already deepening. It only targets the Hero Federation. The direction is exactly the hinterland of the Federation.

Zero already basically knows the coordinates of the star field where the capitals of the three major civilizations are located, and the insect swarm is also on the way forward, but Mira does not know where the capital of the Hero Federation is. It is still exploring, trying to obtain more information.

Facing the Zerg war, it watched with a cold eye. No one knew the strength of the Zerg swarm better than itself. It could be said that after the opponent's homeland was exposed to the Zerg, the outcome of the war was no longer in doubt for it.

Mira spent a lot of energy on revenge against the Hero Federation. Originally only interested in the unknown of the universe, Mira has now actively intervened in the scientific war and has the intention of exterminating civilization!
Predation is also a means of development. Facing her former "Creator", Mira has no intention of holding back. With the supply of huge resources and a series of complex refining and processing, powerful warships emerge from deep space one after another. It is produced on the production line and can be put into battle after simple installation.

This is another strength of Mira. As the production line continues to be established and expanded, as long as its computing power can keep up, it can even arm a fleet that can collide head-on with the Zerg!
Zero has always paid close attention to its movements. He is unwilling to fight Mira because the gains are small, but the sacrifices may be great and victory will be difficult.Fortunately, the two sides are still in harmony now, and Zero is not worried that Mira will fall out with the Zerg at this time.

However, there is one thing worth paying attention to. After continuing to penetrate into the rear, following Mira's footsteps, the swarm also discovered some important galaxies that the Hero Federation had not found in its memory. This may have been obtained directly by Mira from the database. , but that's not the point.

This is the first time Zero has seen a device that can perfectly defend space weapons. Mira found a "manned" ship of the Hero Federation in deep space. It was not an armed warship, but more like a scientific research vessel. There was something like a boat, but in the subsequent pursuit, attack and defense, the other party showed unusual abilities!

The cutting power of the high-power space cannon seemed to be malfunctioning in the area near it!
No spatial fluctuations were generated there, not to mention cutting, not even a gap appeared!

Facing Mira's pursuit and interception, this gave the opponent a lot of opportunities to escape. Otherwise, it would have been destroyed long ago.

Conventional weapons such as anti-matter cannons and other attacks are also ineffective. The opponent's defense system is very advanced and it is difficult to truly break through before the energy is exhausted.

There is zero guess that this scientific research ship must be carrying some important mission, or it may be carrying important individuals.He doesn't care about the former, but if it's the latter, it's different.

The insect swarm, which had been standing by, joined the roundup, which made the scientific research ship's situation even more difficult. Their jumping ability was better than that of the insect swarm and Mira's mechanical fleet, but jumping close to the enemy required risks. A huge risk, which is equivalent to putting your life and death in the hands of the enemy within a certain period of time!

Routine navigation is almost impossible to escape the surveillance of both parties. In a very short period of time, this scientific research ship has experienced many crises.

Zero knew very well that there might be an enemy fleet coming at this moment. Although the main force of the insect swarm was not here, Mira's mechanical fleet was right behind, and nothing could stop him from capturing this "important unit".

At the same time, he was a little concerned about the opponent's ability to defend against space attacks. Mira probably came here for this reason, so he did not go all out to destroy it.

I don’t know whether this kind of device can be installed on a large scale, and whether the other party has already carried out technological innovations. If so, maybe the war will add some more variables. After all, this is an epoch-making change in the war, and it can even affect the war to a certain extent. The outcome of the war!
Of course, the Zerg will not fail, at least not because of this, but it does have the ability to change the situation of the battle. After all, due to the need to study space jumps, the main attack ability of the Zerg now is space weapons!

The two sides engaged in an interstellar "hide-and-seek" in deep space, but in the end it still failed to escape the double containment of Zero and Mira. Under the close influence of the seemingly free gravity bomb, its defense The field has undergone considerable changes and is no longer flexible.

And this means that it is almost at ease.
