Chapter 774: Massacre
The number of plasma balls flying on the ground continues to surge, and more and more plasma bugs are coming from the inside of the mothership to the surface to participate in air defense missions.
In less than ten minutes, the anti-aircraft firepower of the Zerg mothership had doubled.
By the time the Empire's landing fleet reached the orbit of the mothership, more than two out of ten of the landing ships had already been wiped out by these plasma cannons!
Two billion Imperial clone soldiers dissipated into space before they even set foot on the planet's ground.
At this time, the Empire's landing fleet has just entered the low earth orbit of this planet, and the landing has just begun!
The Zerg Mother, who had already reacted, sent all the newly created hummingbird insects in the direction of the Imperial fleet's landing.
The damage these hummingbird bugs have done to the Imperial landing ship is far greater than the plasma ball and bone spur attack just now!
Because these landing ships are not equipped with heavy weapons, their own light weapons can only cause some damage to these hummingbird insects by gathering fire.
But there are too many hummingbird bugs! The number of newly hatched batches alone has reached 50 million, and the number is still increasing by a million per second.
Using their small bodies, these hummingbird insects constantly shuttled through the fleet of Imperial landing ships, and the bone spur shells in their firing cavities were fired at the Imperial landing ships that passed in front of them.
If the landing ship is lucky enough to be concentrated by these bone spurs, it will be able to resist these attacks with its armor.
If you're unlucky enough to get these bone spurs into a weakly defended position, these bone spurs that can detonate will be able to tear the entire landing ship directly from the inside.
The seemingly bulky landing ships are nothing more than slow-moving targets and prey in front of these hummingbirds.
Not only was there no heavy weapons on the bulky body, but even the heavy armor was abandoned by the landing ship.
They can't effectively defend against the bone spur shells of these hummingbirds!
In the flashes released by the bursts of landing ships, less than half of the landing ships were left to rush into the atmosphere of this "planet".
This layer of the atmosphere was obviously artificially created, and when the Imperial landing ship entered, it seemed to crash into cotton, not only did the speed slow down greatly, but the outer armor heated up sharply due to friction.
In contrast, the speed of the hummingbirds and insects that followed them remained the same, and their bodies were still so dexterous, and even their shells did not produce ultra-high temperatures due to friction.
This layer of the atmosphere was apparently created to ward off intruders.
Taking advantage of the delay of the Imperial landing ship, the battleship bugs behind took the opportunity to follow, their tentacles constantly flying behind them, and the firing cavity of the bow of the ship closed and closed, and every time the firing cavity opened, bone spurs and plasma shells would shoot out of it.
The Imperial landing fleet was suddenly caught in front and rear, and a large number of casualties began to appear.
The Zerg, who were attracted by all the attention of these landing ships, did not notice at all that behind this group of landing ships, a hundred ships that had entered a state of stealth were quietly approaching the Zerg mothership.
These 100 stealthy spaceships are carrying the elite warriors of the Empire, and they have only one purpose, that is, when the Zerg is attracted by the landed clone soldiers, these warriors directly attack the core of this mothership and detonate the antimatter bomb in their space backpack!
At this time, the Zerg Mother Emperor didn't really care much about these Imperial landing ships that were landing.
Because no matter how many Imperial soldiers landed on the mothership, it wouldn't do her any damage.
After all, this mothership not only carries tens of billions of high-level Zerg units, it is also the body of the Zerg Mother Emperor!
She is familiar with any creature that lands on her body, and she can manipulate her own tissues to kill and injure these "bugs" who land.
As for the Empire's desire to detonate an antimatter bomb on its body, she has her own way of dealing with it!
Now her main focus is still on the Imperial fleets on the battlefield not far away, because she feels that these fleets are far more dangerous to her than these landed Imperial clone soldiers.
If the clone soldiers who are landing know the thoughts of the Zerg Mother, they will definitely beat their chests and want to cry without tears, feeling that their current life and death situation is the result of the Zerg Mother's actions, if the Mother Emperor is determined not to let them land, then they will not have a chance at all.
In the landing ship led by the Imperial Landing Fleet, a howling cold wind poured in through the holes that had been blown out around the landing ship.
The commander couldn't help frowning when he heard the wind roar in his ears like a hundred ghosts whimpering, as the command ship, the landing ship was particularly armored and armored, but even so, it was still blown up to pieces.
More than 20 soldiers have been killed in these explosions, and the landing ship has run out of gas, and even the thrusters have begun to strike from time to time.
It is likely that the landing ship will not be able to hold out for landing, and the other landing ships in the fleet are basically in a similar state.
After all, there were so many bone spurs and plasma shells flying in that even if they weren't hit directly, they wouldn't feel good if they were grazed by these attacks.
"Sir, we can't hold on! If the Zerg continue to attack, we will all lose here! A soldier shouted as he moved to the commander's side with great difficulty, against the howling wind.
A plasma shell just now caused the landing ship's communication system to enter a state of strike, and it will take a short time to recover, and if you want to communicate, you can only rely on roaring.
As clone soldiers, these soldiers are not equipped with psychic linkers, so they can only resort to this primitive means of communication.
"Waiting for my orders! All ready to go straight airborne! The commander nodded lightly when he heard this, he also knew that he couldn't hold on anymore, and the landing ship could disintegrate in the air at any time.
At this moment, another bone spur shell pierced the hull of the ship and took the soldier who shouted just now directly out of the landing ship!
The commander's outstretched arm weakly scooped up twice in the air and then retracted his hand in despair, after all, the speed of these bone spur shells was too fast, and by the time he reacted, this bone spur shell had already penetrated the entire landing ship.
But fortunately, the bone spur shell only pierced directly through the hull of the ship and did not detonate inside the landing ship, otherwise the entire crew of their ship would have been blown into ashes.
At this moment, the commander suddenly noticed that the firelight outside the battleship, which had dyed the starry sky due to the fierce fighting between the two sides, had suddenly disappeared, and the lights inside the battleship were no longer flickering.
