Chapter 9: The Failure of the Swarm

The javelin pierces the worm's body, pinning it to the ground, and then the knife is cut off, cutting off the worm's head.

Several Soldier Worms pounced on a wormman, tearing it apart in a split second, rendering it useless even with its hard carapace.

After observing the battle situation, Taryn directly transferred all the nearby soldier insects, and asked the worker insects of the nest ** to wake up the dormant soldier insects in the chrysalis.

I don't know what the reason is, the insect people are obviously much weaker, their combat effectiveness has decreased greatly, both agility and strength have decreased significantly, and the soldiers and workers of the insect planers here before were stunned to play a ratio of three for one or even two for one.

Moreover, the number of insect people that have been re-drilled out of the ground has been greatly reduced, and only three or four hundred remain.

Weakened, reduced in numbers, lost commanders. Together, Tyron decided to take a leap and wipe out the insects once and for all.

But...... Why the hell is it playing like this?

Think back to the beginning. More than 700 soldiers and insects surrounded the insects here, and the two sides were temporarily deadlocked.

Subsequently, Tylen planned to send a wave of Zerg camouflage attacks from time to time to keep them on high alert and drain their energy.

After experiencing three camouflage attacks, the other party also seemed to see that the insect swarm was a camouflage attack, and each time only some of the insects were on guard, and the others were resting.

How could Taryn let them rest and recover? They immediately pressed on the other side, startling the other party, and just when they were ready to meet the impact of the swarm, they found that the swarm retreated...... At that time, they must have been scolding their mothers in their hearts.

In the Zerg's ranks, the Hunter took a look at his comrades, who possessed a dormant ability that allowed them to avoid this dangerous time by putting most of their people into hibernation during periods of food scarcity and natural disasters. In this state, the Bugmen's metabolism has almost stopped, maintaining only minimal functioning, while being able to tolerate high temperatures and extreme cold, as well as a near-anaerobic environment.

However, the premise of this is that a certain amount of preparation is required, and it is very likely that you will never wake up if you go to sleep unprepared. Also, being forcibly awakened in the middle of sleep will lead to a period of weakness.

The current state of the worm people is very poor, and the group of beasts on the other side is ...... No, it's definitely not an ordinary beast, the hunting king analyzed: their numbers are abnormal, generally speaking, only when a single predator is difficult to catch food, they will gather together to work as a team, but the number of gatherings is only one or two hundred, and more, but a large area will starve to death, after all, the prey that can be captured is limited.

However, in addition to the previous raids, the number of these beasts was too large to eat all the animals in the vicinity. But there were so many animals in the previous fires...... Unless...... They're like bugs and rat people. The Lord Hunter shook the tentacles on his head with some uneasiness. The other party is not a simple beast, but an existence of the same level as them.

"We have to break through! They're draining our energy! When we're exhausted, they'll deliver a fatal blow! "These are not simple beasts! They are the same beings as the nezumen! Alert! ”

Although the Zermen defeated the Ratmen and forced them to the point of extinction, the Zermen did not dare to relax their vigilance against the Ratmen, and they were not invincible on the battlefield.

"We have to break through before they react! Otherwise, all that awaits us is death! The Hunter shouted.

"How do you break through? Where to break through? The wormman asked.

"That direction." The Hunter pointed in the direction he had come, "There's the weakest defense. We'll break through from there. As for the timing of the breakout...... I'll signal when the time comes. ”

On Tyron's side, he once again pretended to press on the troops, and the other side immediately began to be on alert, and just as Tylen returned the swarm to its original position, a scream suddenly came from among the wormmen, and then the wormmen roared and charged in the direction they came.

"Why did you suddenly counter-charge?" Tyron was taken aback, but fortunately he was the will of the swarm, and the order could be conveyed as soon as possible. So, the swarm pressed again.

However, one of the insects on the other side made a strange cry, and then the insects suddenly turned around and threw their javelins at the insects that were about to attack the insects from behind, and the insects suffered heavy casualties for a while. More than fifty soldiers and insects lost contact in an instant, and many more were injured.

Then the opponent turned again, threw the javelin in the opposite direction, and then killed again.

In order to avoid the javelins, the soldiers and insects in the way of the insect retreat could only scatter to reduce casualties. After the javelin rain, the soldiers and insects also launched a charge, but it was still difficult for the newly gathered soldiers and insects to block these insects, and then the large army of insects broke through this thin layer of defense and fled forward, leaving more than a hundred insects to break the rear.

After the loss of more than 100 insects, there are still more than 600 insects, and the battle is almost no suspense, Tylen left more than 300 insects to besiege the more than 100 insects, and the rest went to pursue those insects, the speed of the insects is much faster than that of the insects in a weakened state, but for 300 soldiers and insects to defeat more than 200 insects in a weakened state...... Taryn still didn't have that confidence. Even the insect people in a weakened state have stronger combat power than the soldier insects. It's hilarious in case it's counter-killed. So Taryn just let the troops hang behind the Zerg army to maintain the pressure on the other side and consume the opponent's physical strength. Until you are sure of victory.

However, the more than 100 insects left behind also caused huge losses to Tyran's swarm, and more than 160 of the 300 soldiers and insects were killed in the battle. Taryn couldn't imagine how terrifying the Zerg in their full state would be.

In the end, the more than 300 soldiers and insects in pursuit and the remaining troops of the insects fought again, and finally ended in the defeat of the insect swarm, and only one of the insects escaped, and the pursuing soldiers and insects were all wiped out.

This war made Tyron bleed profusely, and the mass death of the swarm left him in a state of weakness for a while, as if he had undergone a major operation, and even after waking up the Zerg in the chrysalis, it took Tylen a long time to recover.

"It's still too weak......" Tyron, who is in the recovery stage, can't even operate the panel, can only barely accept the perspective of the zerg, and the images are blurry, "The swarm needs to evolve...... Must evolve! ”
