Overlord: Rise of the Zerg

Nuclear bombs are the most powerful weapons currently available to the Zerg.

Theoretically speaking, there is no limit to the yield of thermonuclear weapons, that is, hydrogen bombs. The thermonuclear theory inherited and developed by the Zerg from the Octopus adopts a hierarchical design concept, and this "level" can theoretically be unlimited. Continuing to increase.

In other words, as long as Zero can be ruthless and have enough raw materials, he can theoretically create a nuclear bomb that can blow up a planet.

The principle of the hydrogen bomb, to put it simply, is that the first-stage nuclear fission provides the high-energy neutrons required for the second-stage fusion reaction, thereby "igniting" the second-stage nuclear fusion fuel, and the second-stage The nuclear fusion reaction itself can release high-energy neutrons.

Therefore, as long as there are enough stages, the yield of hydrogen bombs can theoretically be superimposed infinitely.

Of course, the nuclear fusion mentioned here is nuclear fusion in a general sense, which can release energy far exceeding that of fission.

In other words, in the decades after mastering nuclear fission technology, Dagos has already taken the first step in nuclear fusion technology.

Similar to fission reactions, nuclear fission has gone through a process of development and maturity from its generation to its controllability and refinement.

As for nuclear fusion, from its application in hydrogen bombs to controllable nuclear fusion, if there are no accidents, the Zerg still have a long way to go.

The way this unknown entity attacks the Zerg is undoubtedly a hydrogen bomb. In the space age, this kind of weapon is quite cheap to make.

On those gas giant planets, hydrogen isotopes, deuterium, tritium and helium 3, are relatively high-quality fusion fuels. Even on some planets and satellites, there are many such materials.

It is powerful and cheap, making it the most convenient weapon to make.

In this one-sided attack by the insect swarm, the opponent released thousands of high-yield hydrogen bombs on the three natural satellites of Planet 6. The scale seemed huge, but in fact the insect swarm was also able to do the same. at this point.

Those Zerg units carrying thermonuclear weapons are not inferior to the opponent's carefully crafted nuclear bombs, and they have their own navigation. The only shortcoming is that its own biological structure is destined to not be as full of technological beauty as the opponent, and it must exist With a part of the extra structure used to sustain life, this extra but necessary mass may make them inferior in speed of advancement.

Now, the swarm was wiped out by this almost completely unknown enemy in just one strike, including all units in space and on the surface. Only the diggers and energy units underground survived. It can be said that if it is an ordinary intelligent civilization that suffers such a degree of attack but does not even see the opponent's face, it can already declare defeat.

However, the Zerg are different. Now, under the command of Visser, they have completely given up on their own development and are fully moving towards war.

Before the opponent lands, a large number of Zerg diggers will first be hatched, which will provide sufficient resources for the Zerg underground base.

Secondly, the rapid reproduction of the underground carpet, with the help of the huge energy from the core of the planet, rapidly grows the Zerg base and provides energy support for the subsequent hatching of Zerg units.

There is no material accumulation here, nor is there any energy enrichment. Every resource collected will be used in the next moment to increase the number and strength of the insect swarm.

After the opponent launches landing activities, the Zerg surface units will compete with them on the surface for control of the entire planet.

At the same time, the brand new Zerg space units equipped with nuclear weapons produced from the inner resources of the planet will re-enter space as quickly as possible, and try to launch a counterattack against the opponent's space weapons, and finally regain "air supremacy" ", guarding the safety of the Zerg's only three satellite colonies in the orbit of Planet 6.

At this time, Zero and Visser did not know the nature of the other party's civilization, and only treated it according to the standards of ordinary intelligent civilization.

In the general concept, every individual in a smart civilization is important. It takes a long time for an individual to grow up to have sufficient knowledge and action.

In this process, in addition to the time cost, a lot of resources need to be invested, so their lives are precious.

Visser's idea is very simple. If he can inflict huge damage to the opponent on the surface of the earth, and at the same time forcefully "compete" with the opponent at the cost of huge losses in outer space, compared to the Zerg's characteristic of not fearing losses, the opponent cannot afford this. Continuous attack.

At that time, the swarm can take back the initiative in the entire war, and then avenge their shame and let them know what fear is.

Yes, after a simple analysis, Visser has such confidence.

The attack methods used by the opponent are not beyond the understanding of the swarm. On the contrary, although the hydrogen bomb has not been born in the hands of the swarm for a long time, it has already been mastered by them.

In this regard, even if there are some differences, there will be no generational differences.

This gave Visser, who was almost stunned, quite a bit of confidence.

Of course, it is also possible that the opponent has more high-end attack capabilities, but thinks that these "small means" can already deal with the insect swarm, so they disdain to use them.

However, Zero thinks that this possibility is relatively small. With the other party's immobility and thunderous movement, it is obvious that he has the idea of ​​​​a fatal blow.

Therefore, if the other party has a more convenient method, they will not have to use it.

Either "they" don't have it, or this method has certain limitations and cannot be used easily or does not have the ability to be used under such conditions.

No matter which one it is, it means that there does not seem to be a huge gap between the two sides.

It is a pity that the other party's skills are obviously very exquisite, and there is no situation where the nuclear bomb fails to explode. Otherwise, if a relatively complete technological product can be obtained, what kind of technology the other party possesses will be reflected in the manufacturing skills.

A large number of land units that have been extinct in the Zerg battle sequence for a long time have returned to the stage of history after hundreds of years.

Compared with the last time they appeared that year, during the war that destroyed all the Octopus' thoughts, they are still as diverse in appearance as ever.

Compared with the first generation of uniform Zerg warriors, today they represent the pinnacle of Zerg biotechnology!

Because they know nothing about the opponent, whether it is attacking or advancing, long-range or close combat, even Zerg blasters carrying small fission nuclear weapons are also among the attack sequences of land units. Together, they form an unprecedented large-scale land army. , with the accumulation of resources, their number is rising crazily.

At the same time, Zerg space units that had given up most of their transportation capabilities also began to form in the underground space. Compared with many land units, the tasks they undertook were the most important part of Visser's plan.

Therefore, the protagonist of this subsequent counterattack that may break out is not the swarm of bugs that are already approaching the surface in large numbers and are still being supplied continuously, but these small space units equipped with the strongest attack weapons of the bugs!

Visser chose to let it go when the opponent's follow-up nuclear strike was inevitable after the counterattack began.
