I Am the Swarm

Because of the previous discussions with those middle-circle civilizations, these outer-circle civilizations are far away from the battlefield. Even if they advance fully, it will take a while to reach the designated position.

​​

The evolution of the coalition forces naturally did not affect the Zerg, but because of their shrinking formation, the battle losses increased a lot. But they must give way for the outer circle of civilization to enter the battlefield, and these losses can only be endured.

​​

After several rounds of firepower exchanges, the coalition forces keenly discovered the reason why the Zerg firepower was so fierce. Some never-before-seen or rare Zerg units appeared in their battle formations.

​​

For example, a combat unit shaped like a pufferfish, with a slightly fat body, about the same size as the Taikoo class, but on its flat back, it carries more than ten main guns.

​​

This is a new unit of the Zerg, called the puffer fish. It is a long-range support unit that appeared after Rowan wanted to add targeted units. It has a well-proportioned body and a more mechanical body, making it faster and more flexible than a space octopus.

​​

However, it does not have melee combat capability. The two dark energy furnaces in its body can supply up to sixteen main cannons to fire at full force at the same time. And due to the compatibility of their Creep templates, they can freely choose the number of main guns they carry. At this time, because they are close to the base, most of them choose to carry more than ten main guns.

​​

There are a lot of them, as many as 500 million, accounting for one-eighth of the total Zerg army. With such a large proportion, Conrads couldn't help but scold the intelligence gathering department of the coalition forces.

​​

The intelligence department of the allied army against the Zerg was led by the Ji tribe, and all the races on the front line, including the Rashudian tribe, and even those outer circle civilizations, joined.

​​

Under this configuration, it is impossible to fornicate to sell the enemy. Therefore, the Zerg actually concealed so many new types of arms, and it is really no wonder those intelligence personnel.

​​

Because puffer fish and space octopus are both combat units created based on the creep template. When they are usually basking in the sun, they are all curled up together, and the swarm has deliberately made some confusion, so you can't really see the difference at a glance.

​​

Each puffer fish is equivalent to the firepower of the ancient series with only two barrels. Now there are 500 million here, which fully increases the firepower of the Zerg by more than half.

​​

In addition, the Zerg has a giant structure unit in the orbit of every star in the territory, and there are also here. Although because of this star system, the Zerg occupation has not been long, only a few decades, but the giant structure unit has grown to a level of more than 2,000 kilometers.

​​

Two asteroid-like behemoths traverse the orbits of the stars. For these Zerg giant structures, after years of remote observation and research, the Alliance has long figured out their purpose.

​​

Those Zerg megastructures are different from the construction of mechanical roads. It is necessary to make drawings and study problems such as load-bearing. They should be a kind of Zerg that grows slowly from small to large through the unique advantages of biotechnology. Because of the properties of biological self-regulation, they eventually grow into giants.

​​

This makes it unnecessary for the Zerg to have a high level of technology like the Alliance civilization, in order to build such a giant structure. The Zerg were able to build these things very early, when they were still very weak.

​​

And through the retrieval of some early monitoring data, it is shown that the functions of these Zerg giant structures are also very primitive. They are equivalent to a super electromagnetic gun. When the Zerg did not master the advanced sub-light speed engine and warp speed engine, they used them to launch a meteorite-like structure to the surrounding star system to achieve the purpose of expansion.

Because of this research, the Alliance has also launched a round of operations to find Zerg meteorites. Fortunately, the ejection speed of the Zerg giant structure is far from reaching the speed of light, and it is only a weak flight at sub-light speed. Even if it has been flying for hundreds of years, it has not actually run far.

​​

And they basically do not have the ability to change direction midway, so most of them have been crashed in the vast years. In addition, when the Zerg launched them, the level of technology was still very low, the shielding and hiding of various signals, and the research on stealth technology were far from the current level.

​​

The Alliance took advantage of technology and quickly developed a targeted instrument. With their help, the area bordering the Zerg quickly cleaned up the remaining Zerg meteorites.

​​

What puzzled the researchers of the alliance was that the Zerg's technology in gene locks at that time made them helpless now. However, I thought that the Zerg had accepted some kind of inheritance, so I didn't go further. However, a small number of scientific researchers became interested in what the inheritance was based on to unlock the technology, but because of too little data, it was finally settled.

​​

While launching Zerg meteorites, these Zerg giant structures also part-time launch the task of launching the Primordial Class to accelerate the Primordial Class to the sub-light speed state. In the records, in the war between the Zerg and the Riken, the Zerg used this method to quickly deploy the troops to the Riken galaxy.

​​

But up to now, the role of these giant structures has been minimal. It stands to reason that these things should have been withdrawn from the stage of history long ago. Because the construction of this kind of giant structure is bound to consume a huge amount of resources, even if different biotechnology, think about it, it will cost something.

​​

The Zerg retains those giant structures that have already been built, and it is excusable. But they can still be seen in this newly occupied star system by the Zerg ~www.readwn.com~, indicating that the Zerg still retains the tradition of building these behemoths.

​​

This is very unscientific, unless this giant structure is something like a Zerg spiritual totem. But there are very few people who support this view. The Zerg fights are all biological weapons. I don't know how many real members there are. How can they do this kind of thing.

​​

Therefore, these Zerg giant structures must have other functions. But what the specific role is, there are different opinions. Some say that it is a biological hatchery, and the combat units of the Zerg are all produced here.

​​

It is said that it is a Zerg palace, and there are real Zerg living in it. Just attack and occupy these giant structures, and maybe you will find the Zerg treasure.

​​

Some say that this is a large-scale quantum transmitter. The Zerg has an efficient communication system. Although the Zerg has been trying its best to hide and show a multi-primary color communication system, after analysis by researchers, this system is in small It may be useful in ranged battles, but it's not enough to support very large-scale battles. Because this means of disseminating information by vision is too easy to be disturbed by external factors.

​​

There are also some knowledgeable people who say that this is the framework of the Zerg stargate, which is not complete yet, but as long as the Zerg unlocks the relevant technology, the stargate can be built at the fastest speed on the basis of these giant structures.

​​

In addition, there are speculations such as prisons and experimental sites, and the number of supporters varies, but in general, everyone firmly believes that these giant structures are definitely not spiritual totems.
