The Reaper's thrusters were damaged, and its speed and agility were severely affected, and in such a tense and exciting space battlefield, this kind of injury was already fatal, and if it was not repaired in time, it would be difficult to withstand the dense attack of the insect swarm.

As a last resort, Mu Chen had to ask the two Intrepid space carriers to help him delay some time, and he drove the Grim Reaper to the repair ship to replace the damaged parts.

"Luban, the Reaper needs to replace the No. 4 main thruster and repair the balance device, please prepare immediately, it is expected to be able to reach your current location in 15 minutes." Mu Chen reluctantly controlled the rickety Reaper to fly in the direction of the maintenance ship, and sent a maintenance request through the communicator.

"Luban received! Please upload the damage to the Reaper, and we should prepare in advance. ”

"Damage uploaded ......"

As soon as the Reaper left the battlefield area, the pressure on the two Dreadnoughts suddenly increased a lot, but the task given to them by Lord Death was to delay as much time as possible, not to be able to annihilate the swarm in large numbers, as long as they could be dragged down.

The two Dreadnoughts were also desperate, and all the missile launches were bounced open, and all the flashing bombs equipped were launched.

Most of these zergs use their eyes and bodies as sensory tools, and the strong light and violent spatial vibrations generated by the flash shock bomb can effectively affect the sensory tools of the zerg, making them blind and deaf in a short period of time, and reducing the possibility of the battleship being attacked as much as possible.

The flight unit composed of tens of thousands of Hurricane fighters also encountered the biggest crisis since the beginning of the war, without the fire suppression of the Reaper, the first to bear the brunt of these front-line fighting troops, and the rate of casualties increased rapidly.

These space pilots were buying as much time as possible for the Reaper at the cost of their own lives, and everyone went out of their way, biting the swarm of the Grim Reaper desperately, and even did not hesitate to use their own fighters to block the attack of the Grim Reaper when necessary.

Mu Chen saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, but now he turned around and went back to continue fighting, which was obviously irrational.

"Made, these damn reptiles, I'm going to let them all die here without leaving any of them!" Mu Chen roared angrily, raising the speed of the Death once again.

The Reaper quickly arrived at the location of the Luban maintenance ship, and it would take at least 30 minutes to replace the thrusters and repair the balance device.

"Mu Chen, don't worry, this is also something that can't be helped." Hou Ying stretched out his hand full of engine oil, patted his friend on the shoulder, and whispered comfort.

This guy is now able to take charge on his own, and with his excellent repair skills, he has successfully sat in the position of the chief maintenance engineer of the Luban.

Mu Chen shook his head bitterly: "Hey, how can you not be in a hurry, this is not a game, you can still start from scratch if you lose, we really can't afford to lose." ”

Hou Ying looked at this friend for many years with amusement, it was the first time he had seen Mu Chen so depressed.

"When did you become so unconfident? I remember when you bragged to me and Richard that if you gave you a warship, you could turn the universe upside down, why don't you have that ambition now? ”

"Wasn't you young back then, how can you take bragging seriously?" Mu Chen's face was rarely red, but he didn't expect that this friend who had said well before would still remember it in his heart.

The eagle stretched out a hand

Finger, pointing to the first-class eagle medal on Mu Chen's chest, and said seriously: "I have never doubted your ability, for you can defeat any opponent, Richard and I are convinced, if you lose to this group of zergs, it is not a big deal, it's just a death, our brothers also have a companion on the Huangquan Road, and it is not very happy to come back and kill Yama with a banner of 100,000?" ”

Mu Chen can be regarded as convinced of this heartless guy, he can make jokes at this time, this bastard is really stupid and bold.

"Okay, okay, don't comfort me here, have this spare time, hurry up and let your people repair the Grim Reaper for me, and the energy pool will be filled, and the next battle will not be too easy." Mu Chen said angrily.

"You white-eyed wolf, Lao Tzu is kind enough to comfort you, but you still don't appreciate it? I'm busy, don't make a sad face here, look disgusting! ”

"Dead fatty, you're itchy again, aren't you?"

"Ha, it's still the same, I want to do it when I'm in a hurry, haven't you learned some gentleness with Laura?" The eagle was hit by Mu Chen's buttocks, but he didn't care, trotted into a maintenance mecha, and quickly began to install the Death's spare thrusters.

Mu Chen also lowered his head, and used the light brain on his wrist to connect to the reconnaissance satellite on the battlefield, paying attention to the dynamics on the battlefield in real time.

The casualties in these few dozen minutes were almost more than the previous two hours combined, and the flight troops suffered heavy losses, and the space pilots paid a heavy price in order to help the Reaper escape from the swarm.

At least 5,000 space fighters crashed, and the space flight force was reduced by more than one-eighth, although it took away dozens of times the enemy, Mu Chen was still heartbroken and couldn't breathe.

More than half of these space pilots are clone warriors, but they are all living beings anyway, they have ideals, pursuits, and the good life they want to get, but after this battle, many people can never go back.

Through the reconnaissance satellite, Mu Chen can clearly see every corner of the battlefield, and every second, a severely damaged space fighter drags its wreckage to rush towards the swarm without hesitation, and then detonates the power core of the fighter and dies with the swarm.

Mu Chen didn't know their names, and it was impossible for him to remember everyone's appearance, but their heroic actions were forever imprinted in his heart and never forgotten.

Unconsciously, no one around Mu Chen dared to approach, and the kind of killing intent and monstrous anger that was like a substance made people dare not look at it directly.

Everyone understood that the huge casualties had angered Lord Death, and the next battle was probably even more fierce than before.

The crew of the Reaper hurriedly took advantage of this short break to replenish some food and water, even if the tension in their hearts made everyone lose their appetite, they forced themselves to swallow the food in their mouths, because this battle was obviously not over in a short time, and if they really had to return to the battlefield, I am afraid that there would be no time for them to rest again.

This precious rest time was earned by the comrades-in-arms at the cost of their lives, and every second should not be wasted.

"Lord Death, I suggest using a weather weapon to freeze that Zerg asteroid in one fell swoop, after my calculations, if I launch a freezing ray with all my might, it should be possible." The weapons officer withstood Mu Chen's killing intent and reported the plan in his heart to him.

"It's not the time yet, weather weapons take too long to recharge, and they need to be kept after launch

Staying still, continuing to output energy, with the Zerg's attention to that blood-colored planet, I am afraid that a large number of swarms will definitely be sent to attack us, it is difficult to resist the crazy attack of the swarm with only two Dreadnoughts and those flying troops, this is a lose-lose tactic, until the last moment, I will not adopt it! Although Mu Chen was angry, he still had the sanity he should have.

In fact, he had long thought about using the Freezing Ray, but the disadvantages of this weapon were great, the Freezing Ray needed to last for a long time after it was launched, so that the target could be completely frozen, and during this time, the Reaper needed to use all its energy to support the attack of this meteorological weapon, which was equivalent to completely giving up the ability to defend, and could only use the hull of the ship to bear the damage received.

At this time in the battle, people already clearly know the attack power of the Zerg troops, the kind of giant horned flying insects can easily tear through the alloy armor of the fighter, if it loses the protection of the energy shield, it will be difficult for the Reaper to withstand the attack of the Zerg army.

"Let's find a way to clean up the Zerg's flying troops first, otherwise it will be difficult for this meteorological weapon to come in handy." Mu Chen said solemnly.

Die with the Zerg army, as long as a qualified space warrior has such courage and consciousness, but Mu Chen has to think more, he not only wants to destroy this Zerg planet base, but also wants to bring the Death Fleet back as much as possible, after all, this is the best warrior that the Earth Federation can find, each of them is worth a lot of money, after the baptism of this battle, they are very likely to become more outstanding space warriors in the future.

"Weapons officer, are there any weapons we have equipped that can directly destroy this planet?" Mu Chen asked coldly.

The weapon officer thought for a moment and shook his head solemnly: "It's difficult, our particle beam weapon has the strongest penetrating power, but it is still too difficult to directly penetrate an asteroid with a diameter of 2,000 kilometers." ”

Frowning and thinking for a moment, the weapons officer continued: "The only way to completely destroy this planet is to find a way to enter the interior of the planet, reach a position about 200 kilometers underground, detonate a high-yield nuclear bomb, and destroy it from the inside. It's just a pity that it's almost impossible to do. ”

The Zerg planetary base is covered with a highly corrosive slime, and even the intelligent robot Lion made of alloy cannot fight, and it is simply wishful thinking to send a high-yield nuclear bomb to a position 200 kilometers inside the planet.

This is not counting the dense Zerg army on the planetary base, and no number of space marines sent to it are not enough for these reptiles to fill their stomachs.

Mu Chen pondered for a moment and asked, "Do we have such a high-yield nuclear bomb on our warship?" ”

The weapon officer shook his head: "This kind of big guy is indiscriminate damage after exploding, and there is also a huge amount of radiation, so the Reaper is not equipped with this weapon." ”

"Hey, can you find a way to make one? Or hit that intensity with an explosion of episodes. ”

The weapons officer checked the Grim Reaper's heavy weapons inventory with his portable light brain, calculated it and said, "You can give it a try, but this weapon needs to be activated manually, otherwise it will not produce the expected effect." ”

"Don't worry about it for now, you can figure out how to make things." Mu Chen said solemnly.

The weapons officer nodded solemnly: "Give me an hour and swear to complete the task!" ”

This is already the only way to destroy this Zerg planetary base, even if it is dangerous, you have to try it......
