Free Federation, Northwest Star Field Frontier, Burgess Mobile Planetary Fortress.

Between two unexplored and barren planets not too far from each other at the edge of the Baltiwin system, there is a planetary moving fortress that is invisible to the naked eye or a starry telescope.

In his state of complete concealment, Burgess completely blended into the dark cosmic starry sky, and it was difficult for even starships to discover its existence.

Although Burgess did not choose to leave the Northwest Defense Zone, he changed the original mooring coordinates, and the star defense level was also raised by one level.

Dozens of artificial satellites surrounded Burgess to form the outermost defensive fortress and reconnaissance array, and even the slightest distant energy fluctuation could not escape their keen senses as long as they entered the reconnaissance range.

The head of the first district of the Planetary Self-Defense Force is changing his combat uniform, and the news about the Zerg invasion is scrolling on the light screen with him.

"Another planet in the Northwest Defense Zone has been raided by insect ships!"

"Does the lack of combat power mean that the frontline battlefield planet will be lost?"

The news anchor was either exaggerated or serious, and the terrible scenes of war transmitted by front-line reporters to the Star Network made people who were not on the battlefield feel the scorching cruelty.

The commander of the first district put on his combat uniform and stared at the screen, frowned, and muttered, "Damn bugs." ”

Being woken up by the news of the Zerg invasion every day, such a life is naturally not pleasant, and every day begins in a tense mood.

Because of the intensification of the Zerg's offensive, the relaxed living atmosphere of Burgess has been somewhat affected. However, it is generally peaceful and stable.

Everything seemed to be proceeding in order, and the explorers of the base on the Yama Islands were training and patrolling step by step. Go to the cemetery for training.

And in space, at this time, a fleet is passing through the border of the Northwest Defense Zone of the Free Federation, quietly entering the territory of the Free Federation, and does not alarm any outposts, as if all the outpost guard detection systems are blind.

The head of the first district of the Burgess Self-Defense Forces walked out of the dormitory gate, and just got on the flying car, he heard a message pop up in the light brain.

"Urgent mail, do you want to read it immediately?"

"On. ”

The light curtain popped up, and the image of several insect ships descending from the sky to attack Basra appeared in front of his eyes.

"Basra has been attacked, the security index of the Ardavin system has dropped, and a transport ship is calling for backup. ”

A flurry of information jumps out. Jerry immediately started the flying car and flew directly to the command center.

The system in which Burgess is located is no longer safe, which means that Burgess is equally unsafe.

Basra, one of the living planets on the border of the Northwest Star Domain that is being invaded by the Zerg army. It is also the most densely populated planet of the attacked planets, and as a B-class habitable planet, Basra has a population of more than seven billion.

Basra is the most populous planet on the Northwest Frontier, and the sudden attack of the Zerg has caused the entire planet to panic. Even if the ruling government appeases in many ways. But the tusks of the Zerg hanging on their heads are really not reassuring.

Basra was not very far from the current mooring coordinates of Burgess, and it would take less than a day to sail at full speed with the battleship.

Burgess chose this system to anchor at that time for the convenience of material operation and the development of import and export trade, but who would have thought that the Zerg would choose to attack here.

The trouble for Basra is not the invasion of the Zerg, but how to cut off the supply of the wormhole to the troops from the source, otherwise no matter how strong the star defense system is, there will be a time when the energy will run out. Protracted warfare will certainly not work.

The military forces are concentrated in the airspace of the planet Basra, and the warships and insect ships go head-to-head.

A cargo fleet that entered the Northwest Sector from the central circle was intercepted by the Zerg army as it passed through the Baltiwin system.

Three cargo ships were seized at the same time. Thousands of crew members became prisoners.

The Zerg commander is negotiating with the military stationed in Basra, not in the real sense of the word, which is more inclined to the Zerg to blackmail the Northwest Frontier Army.

The war continued, and the entire galaxy entered a state of martial law readiness.

This planet with a large population and coordinates located in a key position in the northwest defense zone is of great strategic importance, but because of the multiple Zerg invasion attacks that began not long ago, most of the military strength of the border guards has been transferred to another direction, and this time the number of Zerg invasions far exceeds the ordinary scale.

"Damn, did you see that?"

"Sixty-five, the star map shows sixty-five insect ships!" The front-line commander almost fainted when he saw the star map display, which was really exciting.

In addition to the forty normal-sized bug ships, there are twenty-five Big Macs.

Twenty-five gigantic insect ships that resemble ancient beasts have appeared in the Baltiwin system, and this is likely to be just an advance force.

With a hideous and huge head, a carapace glowing with metallic luster, and the zigzag patterns of each piece of scale armor, each of which looks like a huge interstellar aircraft carrier.

Such a big guy is not just a means of transportation, some species even have extremely strong attack capabilities, and most importantly, this big guy can actually be counted as alive, it is a living Zerg, the inside of the body cavity is hard, there is a huge space to accommodate other Zerg, and provide an environment to adapt to.

In a sense, these insect ships are actually much better than saint-level beasts, after all, it is difficult for even the brick master to survive in the space environment for a long time, let alone sail long distances.

A bizarre half-lifeform with a defense-worthy of a warship.

If the Egg Cake had been here, they would have known that the big ones were bigger than any bug ship they had ever seen.

Just after the sixty-five insect ships entered the Baltiwin Galaxy, a faint blue halo flashed on the surface of their bodies at the same time, and the energy magnetic fields around their bodies were instantly linked.

The interfering magnetic field wave spreads to the entire Basra star and to the periphery almost in the blink of an eye. At the same time, it affected many surrounding planets, whether it was a natural star or an artificial satellite, and under the influence of strong interference magnetic waves, the communication signal immediately fell into a bump up and down and continued to weaken.

Burgess is the only planet to receive Basra's call for help.

Their determination can be seen from the size of the Zerg army. The scale of the previous attacks on the planets, including the Mine Star, was more like a funny and eye-catching foreplay than what happened to Basra now, and this is where the meal begins.

If reinforcements do not arrive, Basra's star defense system can only hold out for two days at most, and after two days, if the offensive is as strong as ever or even stronger, then the star defense system will undoubtedly break.

The Zerg army is more powerful than ever.

Burgess's reconnaissance satellite technology is far more advanced than that of the Northwest Frontier Guards of the Free Federation, especially in terms of anti-jamming.

"Has the message been sent?"

The communicator's hands kept sliding on the operation panel, and the data ripples on the light curtain kept flashing, and the data ripples were constantly changing with the increase of the red light spots in the star map.

"No, I can't. The entire Baltiwin system is filled with interfering magnetic waves, and once the signal is sent, it will be weakened at an accelerated rate, and by the time it is transmitted out of the Baltivian system, the signal has weakened to the point that it is difficult to translate. Even if a nearby outpost receives a call for help, it is very likely that the system will identify it as spam.

In the middle of the retro wooden buildings in China on the mountainside, the light curtain of the command center is playing back the images from the previous satellites.

"Oh my God!"

This is the same reaction of all explorers after seeing that scene.

The scarlet behemoth appeared in the starry sky realm of Basra with its monstrous body full of the Zerg army.

"Is that a bugship? bigger than an Imperial-class starcarrier!"

"I've never seen a terrifying bugship this massive. ”

The forces of the North-Western Frontier Army were redeployed to other theaters. Basra's garrison was an elite unit though. There are twice as many as other planets, but who would have expected this to be the case, but it is difficult to resist for a long time in the face of such a terrifying number of Zerg armies.

Such a huge insect ship like an interstellar aircraft carrier has never appeared before in the history of the Star Alliance, and now there are twenty-five of them at once.

Several high-ranking officers of the garrison looked at each other and saw despair and shock in each other's eyes, and then in an instant, it turned into a kind of firmness, but there was no fear, as professional soldiers they had territory and people to protect, they had no reason and should not be afraid.

There is no better way to do it at this point. Even if they took their lives, they had to buy time to get the word out and hold out until reinforcements arrived.

Basra must not become a defensive gap in the North-Western Frontier. There are also more than 7 billion people, countless families, and billions of people who depend on their homes to survive, and they must hold on to the stars.

"Did you get in touch with the garrison fleet?"

"Communication has been made with the captains, thirty-two warships have been dispatched to the front line, the two sides have exchanged fire, the Zerg have formed an independent encirclement, and the giant Bug ships have super attack power. ”

"Report to the commander, the battleship No. GE2356 was destroyed by the Zerg and the main engine was forcibly boarded by the Zerg and attacked. ”

The ground ejection base of the mecha corps is ready, and the two mecha corps are preparing to catapult into the first battlefield of the front line.

War sirens sounded three times in quick succession over the globe.

"Everyone go back to their homes, don't walk around the streets, everyone goes back to their homes, close the doors and windows, and don't walk around the streets"

The Free Federation has always been a country with strong people, especially the border residents, even if the sirens sounded, the atmosphere was so tense and stagnant, and the people who cried and cried and made noise were still only a minority, and most of them calmly returned to their residences and closed the doors and windows in accordance with the requirements of the warning notice.

The streets are lined with patrolling mechanical guards and guards, and the once bustling commercial center and food court have suddenly become empty, and most of the shops have chosen to close.

No one can be sure that there are no Zerg spies or anything like that on Basra, and it's not always safe to wander around the world.

command center,

"Report sir, there is a request for communication, the suffix is Burgess. ”

"Connect immediately. ”

The commander of the garrison did not expect to receive a communication from Burgess, and after the conversation ended, the commander smiled for the first time of the day.

"The explorers of Burgess have set out, and they will be responsible for sending the call for help. ”

"They're in the Baltiwin system?"

Burgess's aid is definitely a boon to Basra, a voice of hope, Burgess's combat strength as soldiers of the Free Federation they have all heard of it, if Burgess lends a helping hand, they will be able to hold out until the reinforcements arrive There is even more hope.

This greatly boosted the morale of the garrison, who were not alone, and had a strong reinforcement by their side.

Burgess, the base of the Yama Temple, two groups of explorers divided into eight squads have set off from the planetary fortress, their mission is to accurately relay the news of Basra's attack by the Zerg to the Northwest Frontier Army.

The Baltiwin system was almost completely isolated at this time, and the outposts around the galaxy did not find any anomalies, and the Zerg's strong attack this time was obviously not only the use of giant insect ships, but also the eighty percent of the Weilan Empire was also involved in it, without the help of top hackers, the outpost's reconnaissance would not be blinded in this way.

Burgess also raised the alarm, orange-red siren lights flashing in the light curtains of the advertisements, and citizens who had practiced countless times knew what was going on.

Department of Space Security,

The ring light curtain shows all the real-time intelligence around Burgess's star sector, and every change in smile cannot be ignored.

Southern Hemisphere of Burgess,

The endless blue waters of the Southern Ocean are connected with the blue sky, the bright sun shines on the sparkling surface of the sea, the sea breeze blows, and the sky flies past a flock of seabirds in the secret room, one after another waves tumble and fall, playing the music of the ocean.

At this moment, a flash of light mixed with the dazzling sunlight suddenly plunged into the sea and then disappeared.

The space security services are detecting this inconspicuous change through a global monitoring system.

"What was that?"

"A white light, not sure what it was. ”

If it were in normal times, such a thing might be inadvertently ignored, but now it is inevitable to think about it a little more, in case it is a UFO!

"Replay the screening, and at the same time send a marine reconnaissance team to the corresponding coordinates immediately. ”

Both the Department of Space Security and the Planetary Self-Defense Force reacted in a timely and cautious manner, but even so, some things or some people were not so easy.

In the depths of the Southern Ocean, white light flickered again and disappeared to the bottom of the sea. (To be continued.) )
