Star Wars: My battleship can transform

The appearance of the elite troops of the insect swarm shows that the mother insect has reached the point where it has exhausted its resources.

Before the insect swarm got entangled with the ground troops, Xuefeng once again launched a round of orbital bombing towards the densest place of the insect swarm.

Special emphasis was placed on taking care of that group of elite troops.

Facing the elite units of the insect swarm, the weapons of the ground troops may not be lethal enough, and it will take multiple rounds of firepower output to kill the elite individuals of the insect swarm.

Facing the low-orbit bombardment falling from the sky, the ground troops of the swarm were not enough.

Strangely, Qi Yiming only found a very small number of elite individuals among the insect swarm, which confused Qi Yiming.

There are too few elite Zerg individuals on the battlefield, far from reaching the upper limit of how one female insect can hatch elite individuals.

But for the current battle, Chen Cheng was having a hard time dealing with it.

Even if the Xuefeng can provide support for ground troops in low orbit, the number of insect swarms is too large, and the support provided by the Xuefeng can only be said to be a drop in the bucket.

It wasn't that the Xuefeng's attack power was too weak, but that it was unable to open fire with full force due to concerns over the casualties of the ground troops, and could only provide a certain amount of support.

At most, he can help Chen Cheng eliminate some elite individuals in the insect swarm in advance.

Ground troops on the front line do not need to aim at all. They only need to close their eyes and pull the trigger, directly dumping all the ammunition in the ammunition box at once. It cannot be said that the bullets are perfect, but the bugs that hit more than 90% are definitely can be done.

From time to time, large airdrop warehouses fall to the ground.

It is the ammunition and energy supplies sent by the Xuefeng to the ground troops.

When facing these low-level insect swarms, unless the battle is rushed and the troops fail to block the fire, there will be a large number of casualties. Otherwise, heavily armed troops like the Falcon Special Forces Group will rarely suffer casualties.

But the ammunition and energy supplies they need every minute are also astronomical.

Fortunately, Qi Yiming has always had the habit of hoarding energy and ammunition. Even before setting off from Gaia, Qi Yiming filled all the warehouses on the Xuefeng with ammunition and energy blocks.

This was barely enough to support this small-scale ground battle.

Chen Cheng's ground troops advanced extremely slowly, which made Qi Yiming very anxious.

He had a hunch that the female insect would buy time on its own.

At this time, the other troops that had been sent out to search for the whereabouts of the mother insect had just gathered less than half. In addition, transportation also takes time, and they cannot be reassigned to Chen Cheng's heavy troops in a short time to increase their firepower density.

While the two sides were in a stalemate, the heavily armed troops commanded by Chen Cheng suddenly and inexplicably suffered huge casualties.

A siege tank suddenly exploded from the inside. Two heavy armored tanks were pierced by spikes that suddenly appeared from the ground. The drivers inside were killed on the spot.

And more internal guards soldiers wearing individual exoskeleton armor were pierced by flesh thorns that suddenly emerged from their feet.

The sudden stealth attack instantly caused widespread panic among the ground troops.

All the combatants stared nervously at where they were standing, fearing that the flesh thorns just now would suddenly emerge from the soil under their feet and kill them.

Qi Yiming, who was monitoring the battlefield in real time, immediately reminded Chen Cheng: "Lurkers are lurkers of insects... They will hide their bodies underground and use the life detection equipment I equip you to find the hidden ones." Lurkers in the Underground.”

With Qi Yiming's reminder, Chen Cheng turned on the life detector on the siege tank he was riding in.

Sure enough, dozens of lurkers were found 5 meters underground, right under their feet.

Soon there were more than a dozen soldiers from the internal security forces carrying a disk-shaped equipment in pairs and following Chen Cheng's instructions to the ground where the lurker was.

The disk-shaped equipment was then placed on the ground, and the two team members quickly evacuated.

The next second, the side of the disc-shaped device facing the ground emitted high-frequency energy waves. The high-frequency vibration caused the surrounding air to show ripples in circles.

Then there was a loud noise, and the disk was blasted directly into the ground by high-energy directional explosives, opening a large hole with a diameter of more than one meter in the ground.

In just one second, the depth of the hole exceeded 8 meters.

At the same time, a huge hole was punched into the body of the lurker underground.

Then members of the internal security force threw more than a dozen high-explosive grenades down the hole made, and a lurker hiding 5 meters underground was successfully eliminated.

Following the same pattern, the remaining lurkers were also killed by members of the internal security forces in the same way.

But before Chen Cheng and others could celebrate, the ground shook violently again.

Among the swarms of insects, a tunnel worm tore open the ground and emerged. When it broke through the ground, its huge kinetic energy threw its body high into the sky, and then hit the ground heavily.

It even killed many of its own kind, and then its entire body quickly retracted, supporting an exit with a diameter of more than 500 meters in the hole it made.

Just when everyone was horrified by the variety of attacks by the swarm of insects, another tunnel worm tore open the surface and appeared on the ground.

But the strange thing is that at the huge exit supported by the tunnel worms, no swarm of insects has come out yet.

What's even more bizarre is that a large number of worms are quickly moving away from the exit supported by two Nydus Worms.

Chen Cheng felt very bad, always feeling that what was going to happen next might be something he would never forget in his life.

Qi Yiming's feeling is not much better. From the beginning of the whole battle to now, the quality of the troops sent by the female insects is not high. Although there are some elite insect groups on the ground, their number is far less than that of the normal female insects. The number of elite swarms that can be hatched.

Now that he saw the Nydus Worm again... the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.

Qi Yiming was trying to remember what other terrifying units there were in the insect swarm that required huge amounts of biomass, so much so that the mother worm had to sacrifice the number of her elite insect swarm to hatch.

Qi Yiming's pupils suddenly tightened, and he thought of the devil called the Thunder Beast by the former federal marines.

Just as he was about to alert Chen Cheng on the surface, two thunder beasts struggled to get out from the exit supported by the tunnel worms.

The Thunder Beast, which was five hundred meters high and about eight hundred meters long, appeared in front of the ground troops.

After the two thunder beasts emerged from the underground passage created by the tunnel worms, they looked up to the sky and roared in unison.

The huge sound instantly caused all the ground troops to lose their hearing, their ears were buzzing, and some team members even had blood flowing from their ear holes.

The two front hooves raised high slammed into the ground, immediately causing strong vibrations on the ground.

It even caused two tanks in siege mode to topple over. All the soldiers, including the heavy armor, lay staggering on the battlefield.

After the ferocious entrance ceremony, the two thunder beasts brandished the pair of giant 100-meter-long scythes under the crocodile and rushed towards the heavily armored troops not far away from them.
