51 [Position Emergency]

"Where's the bullet? Why hasn't the ammunition box arrived yet? ”

"Area F needs heavy fire support...... What the? Running out of shells? You son of a bitch tank driver! ”

"The bugs are up, turn on the psionic jammer!"

"Hive Insect Lord! Watch out for nest bugs! ”

……

F position.

Insects are pouring in.

This is a forward position, several kilometers away from the main position, designed to create a certain amount of defensive redundancy in the rear, so that the recharged Sarnagar artifact is not directly exposed to the blow after the insect breaks through the defensive line.

But six hours ago, it was one of many intermediate positions. Alien insects eat away at the human defense line at any cost, and no matter how many casualties are hesitated - Char has more than 10 billion alien insects, and can withstand such attrition.

It can even be said that after the Rangers and Valerian's Imperial fleet landed in Char, the hundreds of thousands of insects killed were nothing at all.

The speed at which the insects were killed in this position close to the main nest area of the Char Star Alien Insects was far from the hatching speed of the nest in an emergency.

The Marines stood knee-deep in bullet casings, guns in their hands, and tanks in the rear were blasting up bloody stumps in the midst of insects.

Countless lines of fire weaved a terrible web of death in front of the base.

Hundreds of insects die in the way of the charge every second, and Rao is still going forward without fear. The target was the Sarnagar artifact that was being charged and protected by all the positions in the depths.

The insects are moving towards the position.

The stinging snakes mixed in with the swarm shot a wave of spinal needles, and the marines who were not protected by the bunkers and bunkers fell into a sea of bullet casings.

Someone immediately took their place and continued shooting.

The medic quickly pulled open the bullet casings and pulled the wounded up, dragging them back as he unmasked his mask and injected nano-medical needles. Some even cut the powered combat suits of the wounded on the spot and carried out battlefield emergency surgery in a race against time......

"Spore bomb, cover!"

With a shout from the communication equipment, I saw dozens of emerald green spore venom balls rising from the main nest of the insect swarm in the distance, drawing a graceful arc in the air, falling into the defense line and exploding.

The strong acid substance instantly covered hundreds of Marines who had no time to dodge, and the terrifying microbes quickly disintegrated the hard power combat suits with the help of the power of the strong acid venom. In the midst of these screams, these brave warriors quickly melted away, turning into clumps of green liquid......

A large number of giant flying insects in the shape of rays, under the dense anti-aircraft fire, emerged from the horizon at the end of the line of sight. He is the Hiveworm Lord, the mainstay of the Insect Air Force, whose outrageous ground attack capabilities far surpass those of ordinary heavy bombers.

A large number of nest insects broke through the air through the anti-aircraft fire net, some crashed into the steel shell of the pillbox, and exploded, but they also blasted it into potholes, and some fell to the ground, quickly crawling out of the impact crater, and began to gnaw at everything living things as far as the eye could see.

Attacked by the enemy on the flank, the position suddenly fell into chaos, and the intensity of suppressive fire was greatly reduced. Emergency response forces rushed to defuse the crisis, but at this moment, the earthquake trembled.

Boom, boom, boom!

A large number of thunderbeasts that were twenty meters tall appeared in the swarm, led by a huge king beast. Regardless of the trampling of jumping insects along the way, he rushed forward with dense artillery fire.

The most powerful of these insects was immediately hit with all the concentrated firepower.

But no matter what caliber of ammunition, even if those Viking fighters in the air deliberately adjusted the angle and launched the Lanzel Flying Mine, which was originally used to attack air targets, it could only blast a small hole in the hard chitin shell of the king beast.

Even the 180mm concussive howitzer that pierced through the siege tank was just a blast wave of flames that exploded into its huge body.

The psionic jammer at the rear of the position was activated at the right time.

The invisible fluctuations spread, and the soldiers on the battlefield felt a confusion in their thinking, but they quickly came to their senses and were only slightly affected.

On the other hand, the swarming wave of insects immediately slowed down.

During the reign of the Jugnard, even the powerful Juggernaut cannot control the actions of each Insect in such a nuanced manner. Its pressure and domination need to be shared and expanded by the brain worm endowed with a certain amount of self-will, and the more detailed control command transmission unit is the king worm.

During the reign of Queen Blade, although she tried her best to slaughter the brainworms that were so serious that she ruled herself, she also transformed a large number of worms to replace the status of the brainworms. It still continues the mind control network of the three levels of "master" - "brain worm" - king worm.

On Char Star, which has tens of billions of alien insects, the massive number of king insects is the cornerstone of the mind control network.

From how to command alien insect units such as thunder beasts and jumping insects to attack after receiving orders, to how to let worker bees collect resources for the development of the main hive, all of them are controlled by this floating monster.

And the psionic jammer is a scientist based on the current Imperial Yuan. The psionic launcher used by Shou Mengsk to attract insects and destroy the planet Tassanis, the capital of the Tyranid Federation.

It can interfere with the signals of the insect's psychic network, causing the insect to fall into confusion.

They have no self-will, and are perfect warriors who know no fear and only carry out orders 100% in normal times.

However, after the command signal is interfered with, this instinct to carry out the command becomes a source of chaos.

Right now, the insects in front of the position are in this predicament. After being interfered with by the psionic jammer, all the instructions from the previous lesson were confused.

Some are retreating, some are continuing to charge forward, and some are even fighting with nearby insects, creating a chaotic scene for humanity to regroup its defenses.

But those thunder beasts, although they were disturbed to varying degrees, became even more terrifying.

One of the Thunderbeasts slammed into an abandoned bunker on the outskirts of the position—which was at the forefront of yesterday's defensive line—and tossed the shattered metal structure entirely, sending it flying far away, smashing a storming siege tank and causing an ammunition explosion.

As the flames swept through the position, the king beast seemed to have gone berserk, no longer bowing its head to protect its torso with a hard chitin shell, but fell into a state of rage, raised its head high, let its limbs be hit by artillery fire, exerted its maximum speed, and rushed towards the position.

That's the downside of psionic jammers.

It can interfere with and confuse the command signals received by the worm, but there is no guarantee that the disrupted command will cause more confusion, especially if it acts on a powerful unit such as the King Beast.

The king beast rampage, and the dozen or so thunder beasts that fell into a state of rage behind them also followed step by step, and were about to burst into the F position under artillery fire to set off a terrible disaster. The battle cruisers in the rear, on the other hand, were providing artillery support for other positions that were in a more worrisome situation, and had no time to care about anything else.

This is how positions have often been broken through over the past few hours.

A wave of ultra-long-distance bombardment from the main hive group of alien insects, combined with the air strikes of the nest lord regardless of casualties, finally sent a number of thunder beasts and king beasts that broke through the critical point - even if the command signal was interfered with by the psionic jammer, there were always a few that would become more terrifying - and then completely overwhelmed a certain position, making the humans have to retreat their defenses......

"Retreat, retreat! The position is about to be lost, retreat! ”

"Carpet bombing in twenty seconds, target F position! Turn this place into a sea of fire......"

Officers at all levels gave orders to retreat in the communications channel, and the Marines ran out of the bunkers with the wounded in their arms, and the bullet casings that flowed across the ground retreated.

But at this moment, a figure stood in front of the position against the crowd.

"Are you crazy, come back!"

"Leave him alone, let's go......"

But this man ignored the shouts of his comrades in the communication channel and threw away the Gauss rifle in his hand.

In the next second, psionic energy fluctuations emanated from his body, forming a terrifying psionic storm around him. The power suit on his body fell off piece by piece, and was replaced by a black alloy armor that seemed to be drilled out of his body. Its surface was glowing with blazing light, and a cloak made entirely of psionic energy was windless.

Bearing the spiritual energy, he slowly rose into the air, and in the shocked eyes of the Ranger Marines who looked back, he stretched out his hands towards the rushing behemoths......
