I Am the Swarm

The war between civilizations is also a process of mutual learning and learning from each other's strengths.

Just as the swarm learns the propulsion system, observation system, and computer hardware and software systems of the Riken, the Riken also learns the swarm.

On this day, the electromagnetic guns of the Riken tribe opened fire on alien forces for the first time. This moment is enough to go down in history and record a new chapter in the turning point of the war.

"Fire!" As the commander of the First Army of the Space Fleet and one of the most powerful figures in the Riken tribe, Khamis was fortunate to have the opportunity to issue a firing order.

——

"Is this what Lord Master said about mastering the barbarians to control barbarians?" Seeing the thousands of cannons roaring from the Ricken clan, Sarah was not nervous at all, but laughed.

Morgan had some black lines on his forehead, and he whispered: "Your Majesty, although this is what you mean, if you say this from the perspective of a Rickan, we seem to be in a not very good position."

"Hehe, they will soon find out that we will too."

The electromagnetic projectile only brought out a little spark when it came out of the chamber, and the subsequent flight was silent. More than 2,000 projectiles crossed the vast starry sky and flew towards the Izumo 14 satellite.

Although the Taikoo-class on the orbit of Izumo was lying motionless, it was the same as the battleship, the projectile flight time was too long, and with a slight movement of the body, it was possible to dodge the shelling. Aiming at them is worth the loss.

And Izumo has many satellites, the current shooting field of view and angle, the best is the swarm creation on the 14th satellite.

The distance between the two sides is hundreds of millions of kilometers, and the projectile is 1 millimeter away from the chamber. After flying this distance, it is unknown where it went. Satellite No. 14 is not large, with a diameter of only over a thousand kilometers. Half of the first round of projectiles of the Riken tribe flew past the satellite.

For this kind of attack that was biased towards grandma's house, the insect swarm didn't take care of it, and the Ricken didn't care. This was originally used for positioning.

After the information feedback, the second round of artillery shelling was soon sent out.

The accuracy of this round of shelling has increased a lot, and the threat has naturally increased a lot, but the swarm has long been prepared.

Some new combat units took off and hovered after reaching a height of thousands of kilometers. Their body appearance was round and similar to the shape of an eyeball, so they were named laser eye bugs.

When the electromagnetic projectile approached, their body quickly adjusted the angle, and a beam of red laser shot from the hole in the body melted the projectile.

For today's swarms, according to the relevant laser generation theory, it is not difficult to evolve them into real objects. However, due to the limitations of biological materials, the insect swarm version of the laser defense weapon has a much lower effective strike distance than the Riken version, only 50 kilometers.

But fortunately, the insect swarm version is more flexible. Unlike the Liken version of the immobile behemoth, the insect swarm version is much smaller. When they were first born, they were only box-shaped objects of more than ten centimeters. They were like fruits growing on a special mushroom creep, and they would absorb nutrients and grow up.

When they grow to a size of 10 meters, they have reached a mature standard, with an effective range of 50 kilometers. Although they can continue to grow, they consume too many resources, and their performance will not improve too much, and the cost performance is too low.

These boxes can exist independently and can move freely after the engine components are fused, so they can arrive in advance and wait according to the calculated trajectory, and strike when the projectile enters the effective range.

At the same time, they can also be integrated into the space octopus, but due to the limitations of its own size and energy consumption, it can only be integrated into the Taikoo class at present. The ship-borne laser defense array that the Ricken people were thinking about was the first to be completed by the insect swarm.

However, in addition to the short range, it also has the disadvantage of laser weapons, which consumes too much energy. The independently existing laser eye worms only have three shots after charging is complete. That is, they need to recharge when they shoot down a maximum of three electromagnetic projectiles at a time.

The charging method can lie on your own, but the speed is relatively slow, and it takes several days to fill up with energy. If you want to charge quickly, you can only connect the creep.

This is also the reason why they can only be integrated into the Primordial Grade. The Primordial Grade has its own atomic furnace, which can be charged quickly and barely maintain consumption.

Insect swarm's move to master the barbarians, but also to use them, made the senior officers of the Riken tribe stunned.

"They must be fakes made by analyzing our laser defense array on Lazer Star."

"This can be 100% confirmed, the other party is not a native race at all."

"I've already said that that statement is pure nonsense!"

"Hmph, the opponent's defensive array is much smaller than ours. Maybe they already have them, but they haven't been used."

"It makes sense. Our energy beam weapons could not be intercepted before, and even if the other party has weapons in this area, they cannot show it."

"Okay, this isn't some advanced technology, it's normal for the other party to have it, so don't be fooled."

"Will the attack continue?"

"Of course, they don't let us idle, and we can't let them idle."

In this way, the insect swarm and the Riken tribe began their daily lives of attacking and intercepting.

However, although on the surface, the two sides have come and gone, the actual consumption level is not the same. Take the wear and tear of key parts as an example, the Riken can only replace new components, but the swarm unit only needs to be metabolized.

In the past, the Riken family will definitely be dragged down.

In the language of the Riken people, although there is no word for boiled frog in warm water, the corresponding reason is still clear. The Rickons are worried, but there is no good solution.

Their warships are assembly-line products, and the advanced automation industry makes the production simple and efficient~www.readwn.com~ Various modules are poured and formed, then assembled in the space factory, and finally added to the battle sequence. The whole process is very efficient.

In contrast, the production of space octopuses by the Swarm is a bit rough. An adult queen can produce several half-meter-high space octopus eggs every day.

After a period of gestation, these eggs hatch into juveniles half a meter long. Next to the spawning room, there is a nesting room built with radiant metal. It is a key protection unit with the egg room. It is usually at a thousand meters underground and is heavily defended.

In this safe environment, the larvae will develop to a body length of two meters by absorbing radiation, and then they will be driven out of the brood chamber to reach the surface of the planet, where they will absorb space radiation and continue to grow.

When they grow to five meters, they will become a glorious juvenile cannon fodder, and at the same time, they will be qualified to go to the close orbit of the gaseous planet and continue to develop.

Here, they will continue to develop, and if there is no war or death in battle, they can grow into a Primordial Class with the passage of time.

Therefore, if the Liken clan and the swarm develop at the same time, the flowing fleet of the Liken clan will become more effective in the early stage, but once the time exceeds a node, what the swarm will show will shock everyone.
