Knock wonders from the space station

Chapter 414
"Redstone Galaxy... which Ranger is the closest?"

Lu Feng, who was on standby at the headquarters of Tiangong, was immediately refreshed and asked anxiously.

"It's the Third Ranger Fleet, it's already rushed over!"

"Well, let Raven continue to monitor, don't get caught... To be on the safe side, let the First Ranger Fleet also move there, order the New Moon mothership to preheat the hyperspace core, and be ready to help at any time!"

Shen Tang moved up and down upon hearing the wind, operating at high speed.

……

On the periphery of the Redstone galaxy, white light flickered, and a total of 18 dazzling light bands appeared in the dark deep space.

Headed by 6 Shenyi-class battlecruisers, followed by an escort formation composed of 12 Aegis-class cruisers, the entire fleet appears streamlined and capable.

The names of most of the galaxies in Meteor Jedi are named by the Vigels. The names are simple and direct, mainly because they are easy to remember.

There are two colonial stars in the Redstone galaxy, Redstone Ⅰ and Redstone Ⅱ. The two rocky stars are rich ore planets. The surface is rust-colored. They produce a lot of distinctive red iron ore. A little refining is good. Armor steel was the most favorite material for shipbuilding before the Vegels made their fortunes.

At that time, the Veiger spacecraft did not need to be painted, and it was bright red. This color matching style has continued to this day.

The two unspectacular mining planets had unprecedented prosperity and formed a short-lived black market.

However, due to the rapid mining of the shallow mine veins, coupled with technological progress, the pirates had better armor options, and this place began to decline and gradually became a marginal world.

Today, there are only 10,000+ mining population living here, and some leftover red iron ore is sporadically mined to sell to civilian shipyards to earn a little money.

ten minutes ago,
A small pirate fleet is mooring in the huge and dilapidated orbital airport for a short period of rest. This large space station used to be a very famous transportation hub, but at the moment it feels only in disrepair and dilapidated.

Suddenly, a violent thunderstorm formed in the universe 20 kilometers away from the orbit of Hongshi Ⅰ. The scope of the thunderstorm was not large, and the diameter of the thunderstorm was only about one kilometer in diameter.

"Look, what is that!"

The pirates on the orbiting space station pointed at the nearby lightning vortex and screamed. The cosmic thunderstorm is a very common natural phenomenon, but such a small and concentrated one has no clue with the superficial knowledge of the pirates. Talk about bragging in bars later.

The energy in the vortex surged violently. After several minutes of stabilization, it finally calmed down, and finally formed a blue vortex with a diameter of one thousand meters. The center of the vortex was like a mirror, revealing a deep black color, with a diameter of about 600 meters.

"Huh? Could this be the legendary wormhole?"

"Tear... Don't tell me, it really looks alike, I want to take a photo and send it to Jenny at the Iron Ax Bar!"

"I know how to pick up girls, do you think there will be any treasures in it?"

The pirates' eyes lit up immediately.

Although they have never seen a real wormhole, this is the case in the information age, but if some characteristics are attached to it, people can take it for granted that the truth is what they think it is, and show amazing self-confidence.

Fortunately, the pirates guessed right this time, this is indeed a basic small wormhole.Not uncommon on the Zerg side.

"Hi~ If you want me to say, there is nothing in the wormhole other than bugs, it's better... to drink!"

This is, an old alcoholic next to him hiccupped and muttered as a matter of course.

Even though he was obviously out of his mind, and what he was talking about was drunk, but at the moment it was like a bolt from the blue to the ears of the surrounding pirates, and the discussion stopped.

"Ha...haha...Old Clay is drinking too much again. The Zerg has been extinct for thousands of years. Where did the Zerg come from~"

Someone laughed, but the laughter sounded a little stiff, as if they were emboldening themselves.

"That's right, don't listen to the old drunkard's nonsense... I'm going to sail over there to see if there is anyone together?"

Some people echoed loudly and tried to pull people to go with them.

"Good idea, I'll go too!"

"Go together! Go together!"

……

A few minutes later, more than a dozen pirate ships of various shapes took off from the airport and headed towards the newly-appeared wormhole.

The first one is a modified medium-sized cargo ship, which can barely pretend to be a cruiser, and the crooked melons and cracked dates behind it are even more unsightly. It is mainly a frigate, and the hull that lacks scientific maintenance looks a little mottled.

The temporarily formed pirate fleet slowly approached, and the engine nozzles emitted red light, which was caused by impure gas fuel and aging equipment, like the tail flames of imperial warships and Shentang fleets, which were pure blue.

"Gunner, try firing a cannon!"

On the leading pirate ship, an electromagnetic cannon on the back of the ship moved slowly, with lightning flashing, a low-power projectile pierced through the air, and instantly disappeared into the vortex.

"no response?"

The pirate captain calmed down a bit, and turned to "Where's our drone? Send it in to have a look. By the way, remember to fix the steel cables and data cables so that they don't fail over there. This thing is very expensive..."

Soon, a clumsy reconnaissance drone took off from the pirate ship and slowly plunged into the wormhole.

The pirates on the ship were looking forward to the image transmitted by the data cable, but the moment the drone passed through the wormhole, the picture was torn, and then it was completely frozen and stuck.

The pirates sighed and scattered in disappointment.

"Draw the drone back immediately, I hope the video can be seen."

The hoist at the bow of the ship began to reverse, and it easily dragged the drone back, but the pirates who saw the drone were startled. A huge flying insect crawled on top of the drone, spreading its bloody pussy He gnawed at the metal casing of the drone.

In less than a minute, half of the drone that was regarded as a treasure by the pirates was gone, apparently scrapped.

"Different... Zerg! There really are Zerg!"

The pirates immediately exploded, some turned their cannons, and some turned their heads and ran away immediately.

Soon, sporadic artillery fire streaked across the starry sky, and the hit rate was terrible. The frightened Zerg worm raised its huge fleshy wings to surpass the pirate ship, and its body was light and flexible in the windless cosmic vacuum. It was even more difficult for subsequent shelling to hit.

The old pirate angrily kicked away the frantic gunner, and began to use high-speed machine guns to shoot at the Zerg. After all, there was only one Zerg, and it was quickly swept down by the rapid-fire fire.

But before it died, it still sprayed a few worm blades at the pirate ship. After the worm blades spun and hit the hull, they exploded violently and released green acidic smoke.

The pirate ship under attack trembled violently, and some cabins caught fire, causing the pirates on the ship to panic for a while.

Can't help feeling terrified.

Just one zerg is so difficult, what if there are more?
A retreat suddenly rose in my heart.

Unfortunately, it's too late to quit now.

The next moment, a swarm of worms spewed out of the wormhole like black smoke, engulfing several pirate ships at the door in an instant, and several balls of fire exploded in the black cloud.

In less than 3 minutes, this small pirate fleet was completely wiped out, without even a splash in the sea of ​​insects.

After killing the pirate ship with ease, the swarm immediately rushed to the nearest orbital airport. The faces of the people in the airport were pale, as if they could feel the unstoppable power of the swarm.

"God, it's a bug swarm, run—!"

"Go away, don't be my way!"

"Ah, help, my leg is broken..."

"Hurry up and ask outside for help, where is the nearest fleet?"

"Grass, what kind of fleet does Meteor Jedi have? If you don't want to die, follow me to the fort. I'm here today with the bug!"

In the rusty corridors of the space station, there was the sound of shouting and running of the pirates in a panic. The pirates present scattered in a rush, trying to escape the rapidly approaching black cloud outside the porthole.

The bug swarm didn't give the pirates much time to react, and the bug swarm attacked the thin track building in just a few minutes.

Countless flying dragons swooped down one after another, pouring worm blades towards the old armored surface of the space station. A violent explosion swept across the surface of the space station. The shock wave lifted pieces of the deck, tore the steel beams, and sucked the pirates in the cabin into space. Turned into ice sculptures one by one, and then swallowed by insects.

Not long after, a few old forts with a small number of people began to fight back, and even two anti-aircraft missile launchers on the central tower began to operate.

A few red lasers passed through the swarm, scorching a few unlucky flying dragons, and then 4 more missiles flew in, raising the battle result to double digits.

But that's it.

The firing fort was quickly attacked by the swarm, and the pirates who were cursing loudly were consumed by the explosion flames.

And the missiles misfired after the first round. The reason is that there are no spare missiles in the airport. The 4 just now are all in stock!

After all, this is a desolate fringe galaxy, where even the pirates don't care about it. Who would spend money to deploy so many missiles here?

So the resistance of the pirates present was very weak.

The only thing that is a little suspenseful is the number of pirate ships that have left the port ahead of time, and those that are too late to leave the port have now become space junk on the berth.

These guys who escaped by chance are frantically fleeing outwards. As long as they can leave the planet's gravitational well, they can use their warp speed to throw off the pursuit of the insect swarm. warp speed.

Otherwise, the coffin boards of all human scientists will not be able to hold down.

The menacing insect swarm obviously did not intend to let them go, and hundreds of flying dragons immediately chased after them. The flying dragons had better acceleration, and within such a short distance, they quickly approached the fleeing pirates and launched an attack on the hull.

The Veiger pirates also became ruthless at this time. After all, they were outlaws. The various turrets on several ships turned around and fired wildly at the swarm. The sparse barrage of light followed the swarm, resisting the attack of the swarm near.

The pirates couldn't care less about the money any more, and happily threw out all the weapons on board.

Not to mention, this round of full-bore firing was quite imposing, and even the swarm of insects was temporarily forced back by this round of explosion.

But bugs are cunning. After discovering that the missiles only chased individual individuals, those flying dragons locked by the missiles immediately left the large group and began to circle around with the old-fashioned missiles behind them.

During the process, some flying dragons were caught up and killed by missiles because of their inexperienced skills. After passing through the barrage of humans, the missile behind it hit the pirate ship that just launched it!

A fireball suddenly rose up.

The most advanced pirate ship on the battlefield was severely damaged by the missiles fired by itself, and a hole was blown out in the side of the ship. Several flying dragons rushed in immediately, biting the pirates inside frantically.

Soon, the fleeing small pirate ship was sunk by the insect swarm. Right now, the pirate destroyer is the last survivor, but it has come to an end.

At this moment, the desperate pirates suddenly heard someone shouting from the bridge: "A massive object is approaching at warp speed! It must be the fleet! It must be!"

Like a drowning man trying to grasp the last straw, the pirates frantically determined and looked forward to it.

The light dissipated, and huge hammerhead-shaped bows jumped into view, and the pirates were stunned. These were ships they had never seen before, and they had never seen the signs on the side of the ship.

Where is this battleship from?
Regardless, although I haven't seen it before, it still belongs to the human side, so the other side shouldn't be desperate, right?

But soon they found themselves thinking too much.

The huge hull of the hammerhead-shaped battleship passed in front of the pirate ship, bringing a huge sense of oppression to the Veggle pirates in the ship at close range, and then, this mysterious fleet passed them by, completely ignoring them the meaning of!
"Hell, whoever they are, they can't be counted on, keep running! I hope the bugs will go after them..."

The only remaining pirate ship fled to the outside of the galaxy with billowing smoke.

This time they were finally lucky. The swarm chasing them obviously found a bigger threat, so they flapped their wings and rushed towards the human fleet that suddenly appeared.

Inside the flagship of the Third Ranger Fleet, a majestic middle-aged officer stood with his hands behind his back. He was the commander of this fleet, Gu Yue, who belonged to the Shenzhou Fleet.

Speaking of it, this should be the first time that the Shenzhou Fleet escaped from the cover of the Shentang Fleet and fought outside alone, especially against a dangerous swarm of insects.

But for Gu Yue and the officers and soldiers of the Shenzhou Army, it was a bit exciting.

This is a battle to prove himself, and it is also a battle to establish the prestige of the Shenzhou Army, and he must go all out.

"The entire fleet has entered the first level of combat readiness, turned on the weapon insurance, loaded the missiles, and released the fighter planes. We are going to fight the bugs head-on, cheer up!"

"Yes, Chief!"

The high-spirited voices of the captains came from the channel.

There was no tricky tactics in this encounter. At best, the pirates helped attract some firepower, mainly relying on the fleet's tough front.

The swarm immediately switched their offensive after discovering the new threat, and the two sides began to move toward each other.

At a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers, the Shenzhou Fleet opened fire first, and dense blast energy beams rose from the 4 groups of artillery arrays above and below the Shenyi class, and hit the overwhelming cluster of flying dragons like raindrops.

The turbolaser cannons of military battleships are much more reliable than the rags of pirates. The insect swarms that formed the black cloud melted like ice and snow under the intertwined blast energy beams, and large pieces of black slag fell off from the dark cloud.

After being hit head-on, the swarm immediately changed their tactics, like a swarm of bees exploding, attacking the human fleet from all directions.
