Chapter 444: Flat Push
The mother worms occupy dozens of star systems and use them as a base to expand into the outside world.
The fleet sent by the Edith Empire is constantly attacking these star systems, and at the same time pulling up a very exaggerated warning belt, and using some kind of advanced equipment to block this space, just like what the previous Erady Universe Alliance Zone did, all of which wanted to use this way to block the artificial wormhole created by the cave worm and prevent the almost crazy expansion of the alien worm.
This delicate standoff lasted for a few days.
Unlike the Eladic Universe Alliance, the empire created by Edith is unprecedentedly powerful, and when the empire comes up with some galaxy-level superweapons, the insects instantly become the weaker side.
That's something that has only appeared in film and television works or literary works, such as the Death Star, the Sunbreaker, the dark energy weapon, the dimensionality reduction strike, these things that sound a little illusory have become a reality under the pale technology of Edith, the overwhelming insects can no longer threaten the Imperial Army, the Death Star slowly floats through the dark starry sky, the main cannon can turn a planet into dust completely, the worm nests built by the insects are destroyed one after another, trillions of insects are vaporized, torn apart by huge energy, and turned into cold wreckage between the stars。
Even the highest-level mutant blaster in the swarm, or the Giant Eye Destroyer, could not destroy the quantum crystal armor on the surface of the Sun Destroyer, and could only watch as it shot the energy resonance missile into the star at a speed close to the speed of light, and then watched the star split, and then turned into a supernova in the collapsing gravity, accompanied by a terrifying gamma-ray burst, enough to destroy everything and devour everything in the star system at the same time.
Whether it's alien insects, or the nests they build.
"Huh, request for backup?"
Mo Ren, who was in the Alien Insect Star Domain, suddenly received a simple signal from several female worms, which made him raise his eyebrows in surprise.
These mothers don't have too much intelligence, but that doesn't mean they're just as incapable of thinking as other insects, in fact, in addition to their absolute loyalty to the queen and the master, they actually have the ability to think.
Just like the current situation, the mother worms felt a mortal threat, which made them unable to complete the order given to them by Mo Ren (to destroy the empire), so they began to take the initiative to think and judge, after realizing that their death was actually meaningless, and there was no way to provide effective help to Mo Ren, they began to take the initiative to ask Mo Ren for help, hoping to send more insects to help them destroy the imperial army, or find a way to save themselves.
The mother worm is different from other insects, and other insects don't actually care about whether they will die or not, but the mother worm will think and judge, because the mother worm itself is the production unit in the swarm and is a very precious resource in the swarm, so for the swarm itself, the mother worm will do everything possible to ensure her own safety.
Of course, if the interests of the swarm are involved, then the mother worm will not hesitate to die, just like all the insects that are loyal to the queen and the master.
"Squeak Squeak......"
Through the unique network of psychic links between the alien insect population, several female worms began to explain to Mo Ren.
"Oh, a weapon that can destroy the star system?"
After hearing the mother worm's explanation, Mo Ren also squinted his eyes slightly.
"Squeak!"
The mother worm continued to describe the situation on the battlefield to Moren.
"You're doing a great job. ”
Regardless of whether the other party could see it or not, Mo Ren nodded to himself, and then directly issued an order to the entire alien insect group: "The female worms in the seventh sector continue to produce super giant cave worms, and the female worms in the rest of the sectors will immediately support." ”
"Squeak squeak!" "Squeak squeak!!" "Squeak squeak!" "Squeak squeak!" "Buzz buzz buzz !!" "Squeak quack!!"
After Mo Ren gave the order for support, the incomparably dense insect chirping began to resound in the psychic network.
Subsequently, the entire Alien Star Domain was completely boiling.
Countless cave worms coiled around their bodies, forming stable wormholes of large or small sizes, and swarms of cockroaches large enough to devour the entire starry sky rushed into it, followed by the Cataclysmic Mosquitoes, Plasma Flame Dragons, Mutant Blasters, Giant Eye Monitors, Mirage Butterflies, Tyrants, and all the insects that were dormant on the surface of the planet woke up at this moment and joined the massive war......
……
On the other side, in a galaxy about to be destroyed.
The silvery-white Death Star is accumulating energy, and the glittering super laser cannon has been aimed at a planet that has turned into a hive, and when the energy is accumulated, the planet can be reduced to a cloud of dust.
But at this moment, the entire starry sky suddenly seemed to be sprinkled with a handful of stones, and countless ripples appeared near this planet, and then before the commander of the Imperial Army could react, a swarm of insects devouring the sky and the earth had appeared in front of them, and the swarm of cockroaches large enough to fill dozens of planets surged wildly, turning into a black tide that engulfed the entire Death Star, frantically gnawing at the deflection shield on its surface.
Of course, despite the extremely developed arthropods and mouthparts of cockroaches, it is obviously impossible to attack the energy field with pure matter.
It's just that the purpose of these cockroaches was not to break through this deflection shield, their only role is to shield the other party's means of perception, only to see these cockroaches slightly open the gap in the carapace, and one by one soft insects the size of a palm crawled out of it, they spread the softened wings, and these wings completed crystallization in an instant.
It was a mirage.
This kind of little guy with no effective means of killing is constantly flying around this death star, sprinkling layer after layer of translucent crystallized scale powder, which can emit, reflect, and absorb electromagnetic waves to a certain extent, which is enough to shield any means of perception that relies on electromagnetic waves, and the biomagnetic field released by the cockroach colony is also enough to affect the ...... Or rather, interfering with the accuracy of gravitational waves.
This is almost equivalent to cutting off the Death Star's means of perception.
And although the Death Star has tried hard to fight back, even if those laser cannons are swarms of crazy strafing, killing trillions of alien insect swarms, they can't completely break themselves out of the encirclement.
More cave worms began to create artificial wormholes around the Death Star, and when these wormholes stabilized, more than tens of thousands of lasers were sprayed out from different wormholes, accurately hitting the same point on the Death Star's shield layer, and the powerful energy directly tore through this layer of shield, and even before the alien insect swarm poured into it, the entire Death Star exploded into a brilliant cosmic firework in an instant because the internal reactor maintenance elements were melted.
At the same time, on the other side of the wormhole.
The black giant scorpion, which was nearly 100 kilometers in diameter, raised its chela twice in protest, and the scorpion tail raised high did not have a sharp venomous hook, but was replaced by a cluster of bright white crystals that constantly flashed with electric arcs.
This is not a mutant alien that Mo Ren has modified, but a class of troops that the alien clan already has.
This kind of alien insect class called by Liu Xuan is a rare long-range attack method of the insect swarm, and even if it is the plasma flame dragon, the giant eye destroyer, and the brain worm, their attack range is not as far as the light prismatic scorpion, after all, just by listening to the name, you can hear that the plasma flame dragon uses high-temperature plasma...... That is, plasma is used as an attack weapon, the Giant Eye Destroyer is a particle ray, and the brain worm is a psychic field, and only the light prism scorpion can release an astonishing high-energy laser in the entire alien insect race.
In fact, after each female worm lands on a new planet, she will produce a certain amount of light prism scorpions as a means of defense when the resources are abundant.
Of course, this kind of defense does not necessarily have to be the enemy of the alien insect race, in fact, the biggest protective effect of these light prism scorpions for the mother worm is actually to guard against some meteorites and asteroids that do not have long eyes, but for the alien insect group, the artificial star of the death star is similar to an asteroid in a sense, anyway, everything that dares to cause harm to the alien insect group must die, which is a fact that all female worms absolutely recognize.
"Good, keep expanding. ”
Mo Ren had also been watching the battle at the moment, and after seeing the mother worms join forces to destroy the other party's death star, he also nodded slowly and continued to give orders to the mother worms.
"Squeak !!"
Once again, the insect chirping of the mother worms resounded throughout the psychic network......
……
After destroying the Death Star, the Worms destroyed many of the Imperial Army's other superweapons in the same way.
It's just that for some sun-destroying ships with extremely strong shields and very small size, the tricks of the insects are not so easy to use.
The quantum crystal armor on the surface of these sun-destroying ships can even resist a salvo of light prism scorpions, and because of the limited accuracy, the mother worms can't gather more light scorpions for salvo, after all, each cave worm has a subtle deviation from the construction time of the wormhole, if all the light prism scorpion attacks in the entire star field are really gathered together, it is estimated that it is no problem to directly evaporate tens of thousands of such warships, but it is a pity that any female worm can't do this.
But the alien worm is an alien insect after all, and since there is no way to kill the other party, then these alien insects simply ignore it.
The overwhelming swarm of insects was mixed with some hidden guards of the King's Nest, and the carapace of these King's Nest Guards protected the newborn female worms, and these insects spread wildly throughout the territory under the jurisdiction of the Empire.
Whenever they encounter a resource star, the swarm will drop a guard of the king's nest.
And once they encounter a resource star, then these alien swarms will separate a small part to attack the planet, destroying all other life and defense equipment on it, and then throwing down a lair guard.
Through the exaggerated visual distance of the Giant Eye Monitor, which exceeds that of any creature, coupled with the unique artificial wormhole manufacturing ability of cave worms, the invasion speed of the alien insect swarm is extremely fast, almost in just a few hours, thousands of colony stars have been devoured by the alien insects, and as for those resource stars and planets that are so barren that there are nothing, there are countless more occupied by alien insects.
But despite the fact that the swarm of insects has been so wreaking havoc, the Imperial Army is not ready to destroy it completely.
Edith's empire is still Edith's empire after all, relying on the technology of the Pale Web, these imperial resistance forces continue to shrink the defense circle, and finally after giving up more than 90% of the territory, they successfully used some advanced technological devices to resist the attack of the insects, and built a super giant defense circle against the insect race, as long as any insect enters this defense circle, it will become a little weakened by some special radiation, and then annihilated by various strong interaction warships.
And once there is a large-scale invasion of alien insect swarms in a certain area, this group of imperial troops will even use dimensionality reduction strikes to directly completely block the entire space.
Once again, the Alien Insect Race is in a stalemate with each other.
However, despite the fact that the Imperial Army was once again locked in a tug-of-war, the situation on both sides had changed dramatically.
At the beginning, the alien insects occupied a small space and it was extremely difficult to develop, while the imperial army occupied the resources and land of a small half of the galaxy, constantly slaughtering the alien insects, and even once forced the alien insect group into a desperate situation.
Now, the alien insect race has occupied more than ninety percent of the territory of the Edith Empire, and the female insect larvae have all grown up, enough to devour the entire galaxy of the alien worm is produced by these female worms at an exaggerated scale and speed, which will bring more incredible pressure to the imperial army all the time, although the battle situation is still in a stalemate, but as the alien worm gradually adjusts to the negative effects caused by the radiation, this delicate balance begins to become more and more fragile, and now the imperial army is almost entirely relying on dimensionality reduction strikes to resist the offensive of the alien insect race。
It's a pity that Liu Xuan only gave Mo Ren a small part of the alien insects to use the permission, not all the alien insects, otherwise, according to Liu Xuan's kind of statement, since even the energy state and high-dimensional alien insects exist, then the low-dimensional alien insects must also exist, and when the time comes, get a bunch of two-dimensional cockroaches to press over, I'm afraid you can solve these annoying imperial troops in minutes.
But although the alien insect swarm can't do anything against the Imperial Army in a short period of time, it doesn't mean that Mo Ren can't do anything about them either.
