Chapter 11: The Rangers' Defenses
A large amount of crystal ore, a large amount of high-energy gas, and an extremely long incubation time are all necessary for a hatchery to hatch a thunder beast, and the thunder beast is indeed worthy of its price.
The Thunderbeast was immensely large, weighing hundreds of tons, and with the help of its thick, armor-like carapace, a siege tank that could easily blast a cockroach to pieces could do nothing against him. And the only way humans can deal with them is a planetary fortress cannon, or a naval cannon strike at high altitude in orbit.
As far as Noyce knew, the human base did not have a powerful planetary fortress cannon, and there was no powerful fleet high in orbit that could overturn the thunderbeast, so she thought that as long as a thunderbeast was created, the human troops in this army would definitely take it.
There is no doubt about it.
Several battlefield insect mothers surrounded such a huge insect egg fifty long and fifty meters wide, spraying a large amount of catalytic saliva. Underneath the eggs, the fungus blanket extends out of several large blood vessels that connect to the eggs. If one looks closely, they will see that these blood vessels extend from a nearby hatchery.
With every pulse of the eggs, the hatchery, which gives the eggs a lot of nutrients, looks like a point of weakness.
Seeing the egg expand at a speed visible to the naked eye, the eyes of the insect mother Noyce were filled with an unknown light.

"Bugs are coming soon! Brace oneself! ”
The captain beside him patted Zhao Yi's shoulder fiercely, and even through a piece of battle armor, he could feel his violent tendencies.
A group of rebels save a few Imperial soldiers who were supposed to be enemies, and then have them join their ranks to resist the bug invasion. If there are still people in this sector who can do this, probably only Renault's rangers can do this.
Although they had separated the three Imperial soldiers into various squads to defend against the invasion of insects out of concern for their safety, Zhao Yi didn't mind or be unhappy at all. Compared with the medical soldiers who were full of worries and the captain Love, Zhao Yi was simply happy!
Who is Renault?
A notorious traitor, a friend of the stars, a messenger of freedom, and a god of the sun. A huge halo was placed on his head, casting his almost legendary life.
Although now he is only a notorious traitor, a friend of the Star Spirit.
You said, such a fat and thick thigh that is about to drip oil, how can Zhao Yi, a traverser, not hug it fiercely and kiss it several times.
Although I was separated from my friends who had been with me for a month or two, it really didn't matter at all.
It's true.
The corners of Zhao Yi's mouth twitched with a smile as he looked at the situation outside through the outside perspective of the fortress.
Half an hour passed, and there was no reaction from the biodetector, and nothing of the same appeared in the field of vision.
"Well, aren't there a lot of bugs out there, why didn't they come?"
Zhao Yi, who was tired of laughing, turned his head and looked at his superior.
"Call me head!"
"Head!"
Zhao Yi's rapid comprehension of the skills of the superiors and subordinates in the army surprised the commander a little, and he thought that this original Imperial Marine would not be able to accept the traitor.
"After all, it's a bug, and I can't say what kind of conspiracy I'm planning.... Soldier! Tell me your name. ”
"My name is Zhao Yi!"
Zhao Yi......
Zhao Yi didn't need to look at the change in the expression of this commander hidden in the battle armor, and he knew that he was chewing his name. To be honest, his own Chinese name is very rare for people in the Koplu Star District.
"I'll call you Zhao in the future." The chief paused, then seemed to say something.
"Didi Di !!"
The Life Probe suddenly screamed.
"Warning, insect signals detected."
"The bugs are coming! Bullet on! ”
Zhao Yi's conversation with the commander was interrupted by insects that broke into the sensing range, and the four marines in the fortress quickly raised their rifles and looked out through the shooting window.
One two three... At a glance, the jumping insects that almost crowded the entire side of the bridge made Zhao Yi give up the idea of counting their numbers, his fingers were firmly on the trigger, as long as the commander gave an order, he would pull the trigger tightly.
The fort where the four marines were stationed was one of the bridgeheads, and five or six meters away was another bridgehead, and Zhao Yi knew that there were also four marines hidden inside.
"Zhao! Are you a veteran? ”
The jumping insects in the field of vision did not rush across the bridge in a swarm of brains as in the game, they waited on the other side of the bridge, as if they were identifying the human marines in ambush, as if waiting for other high-level alien units.
"No, I've only been a soldier for a month or two. The actual combat experience is only a day or two. "Actually, I have only fought today. Zhao Yi added in his heart.
"Ah~huh~~~"
The voice of the commander's sigh reached the ears of every Marine through the communication channel, and the veterans couldn't help but smile.
"Learn a little, Zhao!"
"These bugs are very smart, don't think they're just animals that eat and drink the Lazarian worms, they're very cunning." The chief stretched out his finger and pointed at the group of jumping insects in the distance: "They know that we are squatting here, they must be waiting for the help of stinging snakes or cockroaches before attacking us." Later, if a stinging snake comes, you can shoot it in the stomach, not its head! The bone plate on the head of the stinging snake is so hard that we may not be able to shoot through it. ”
"And what if the cockroaches come?"
"We've got siege tanks behind us, boy, and those siege tank bastards can kill them as soon as those cockroaches pop up! All we have to do is kill the stinging snake and other small insects. ”
Just as the commander had judged, the hoppers were reunited on the other side of the bridge, outside the beam of the rifles in the Marines' hands, and remained dormant.
Soon, the jumping insects that were lying quietly on their stomachs became restless, and after a while, two stinging snakes and a cockroach crawled from afar.
In the process of the slow vigilance and confrontation, the fungus blanket slowly but surely infects the land, providing environmental assistance for the movement of the alien units and the battle.
The arrival of the high-level units gave the Hoppers, the targets in the eyes of the Marines hiding in the fortress, the confidence to storm the defensive line, and soon, the Worms launched an attempted attack.
The meat shield cockroach is in front, the stinging snake follows behind to suppress the soldiers in the fortress, and the jumping worm is ready to insert the direction with incredible speed at the side.
