Chapter 771 - Hole Cards Out
However, even though the Empire's firepower network was extremely dense, the swarm still used their numerical advantage to rush ahead of the Imperial fleet.
At this time, the Zerg fleet had just lost less than 50 million warships.
The Zerg warship that entered the empire directly spat out the plasma shells that had been stored in its body for a long time.
These zergs have not used their own weapons for thousands of years, and in the last thousand years, they have been using the shipboard weapons on the mechanical technology side as their main means of attack.
And because these battleship insects are wearing heavy alloy armor, the weapons of these Zerg biological warships are permanently sealed inside the alloy armor.
Just because these weapons haven't been used for thousands of years doesn't mean that the Zerg have forgotten how to use them.
Likewise, their power hasn't diminished in the slightest, and although their lethality hasn't increased much compared to what they used to be, they can still win in numbers.
More than 100 million plasma balls, which were about to reach a diameter of nearly 100 meters, directly covered the shield of the Imperial fleet.
The Imperial fleet's shield didn't last even a second before it was shattered.
The "flesh and blood" of the Imperial warships were exposed to the plasma ejectors of the swarm.
"Start mobile combat, and Eva will cooperate with the super host to deduce battlefield data to increase the evasion rate and weapon accuracy of all warships."
"Skywing is responsible for controlling the remaining Vespa fighters, so be sure to assist the Imperial fleet in keeping these swarms here!" After a while, the order from Li Mingze reached Tianyi and Eva's minds.
The Imperial warships, which had been neatly arranged, immediately scattered in all directions like frightened birds.
While leaving, the warships were still doing all sorts of irregular maneuvers.
Due to the limited range of the Zerg plasma projectile, its slow flight speed once out of range makes it highly likely that the Imperial ships will avoid them.
However, the Zerg warships did not give the Imperial warships a chance to distance themselves, and they crashed headlong into the Imperial fleet.
The skeletons on both sides of the bodies of these Zerg warships instantly opened, and rows of bone spurs shot from the bodies of these battleship bugs towards the Imperial warships on both sides.
Some Imperial warships that didn't have time to dodge were instantly hit by this row of bone spurs.
The sharp bone spurs directly hit the dimensional armor on the outer layer of the Imperial battleship, and the kinetic energy it carried was instantly absorbed by the armor.
However, the explosive solution carried inside these bone spurs began to react, and the violent explosion directly covered this side of the hull of the Imperial warship.
The armor of the Imperial warship successfully withstood this violent explosion, and only the outermost dimensional armor reached the upper limit of energy absorption and was retracted from the interior of the battleship.
At this time, the excellent defensive ability of the Imperial Acetic Crystal armor was revealed, and no matter how the Zerg's secondary weapon attacked, it could not break the defense of the Epistol armor.
The only thing that can damage it is the Zerg Warship's main weapon, the Plasma Cannon.
However, these slow-charging plasma cannons are not too much of a threat to Imperial ships, and their slow flight speed makes their effectiveness very limited.
At this time, the Empire's Vespa fighters also began to enter, and these black-painted fighters directly drilled into the battlefield in the melee.
Countless warplanes lined up in a neat formation shuttled between the battleships, occasionally aiming at some injured and flawed Zerg warships to attack.
With the help of the Imperial Swarm, the damage rate of the Zerg battleships began to skyrocket, and every moment the Zerg battleships were besieged by the Imperial Vespa fighters and turned into a cloud of waste.
The essence in their bodies has been broken down into various elements and transported back to the mothership to create new warplanes.
At this time, the Zerg mothership that Li Mingze had been observing finally made a move, and after seeing his fleet fall to the downwind, hundreds of canyons suddenly cracked on the Zerg mothership.
Black-pressed hummingbirds and insects poured out of these canyons, rushing towards the battlefield like black clouds.
At this time, Li Mingze remembered why he had been feeling wrong and uneasy, it turned out that the hummingbird insect that he had always seen before did not show his head in this battle.
This Zerg Mother Queen must have used these hummingbird insects as hole cards, and when the empire's hole cards are exhausted, she will send these hummingbirds to the battlefield!
The number of these hummingbird insects is not weaker than that of the Empire's wasp fighters, but is fifty percent more numerous!
The fact that so many Zerg fighters have entered the battlefield has directly changed the situation on the battlefield.
While their weapons can't do any damage to Imperial ships, they can interfere with the fight of Imperial Vespa fighters and interfere with Imperial weapon launches!
The wasp fighters who met these hummingbirds and insects could only fight with these hummingbirds and insects in desperation.
The two sides went back and forth against the background of the two warships, and they were happy to kill, and from time to time hummingbirds and insects were smashed to pieces by the Empire's Vespa fighters.
From time to time, a wasp fighter plane was damaged by a hummingbird insect and crashed into a battleship on the side, turning into dust in a violent explosion and flash.
Except for the hummingbird insects that were fighting with the wasp fighters, the rest of the hummingbird insects rushed towards the Imperial warships.
While their weapons can't do any damage to the letter crystal armor of these Imperial ships, they can destroy the Imperial ships' weapon systems!
When an Imperial warship opened the spatial windows on both sides of the ship, and the guns of the weapons in the battleship reached out of the spatial window, these hummingbirds seized the opportunity.
One by one, they rushed into these spatial windows like death squads!
"Alert! Anomalous creatures have been detected invading the inside of the battleship! ”
"Alert! Weapons systems are under attack! Thirty percent of the time it's offline! ”
"Alert! Detect the high-energy reaction that is happening in the weapon bay and start throwing the weapon bay! With a cacophony of sirens, dozens of chambers were thrown from the Imperial warship into space.
Immediately after that, there was a violent explosion in these chambers!
These chambers are the weapons bays equipped with space folding equipment, and all the electromagnetic railguns, anti-gravity guns, and other weapons of the Imperial warships are housed in these cabins.
The open window of space outside the battleship is also the window that these weapons bays open.
The hummingbird insects blew themselves up after rushing into these weapons bays, and the chemicals in their bodies released a large amount of energy after mixing.
If these compartments are not thrown away, the entire battleship could be implicated!
Thankfully, this was done with this in mind when the Zeus III was designed, and all the compartments with weapons were individually designed to be disposable at any time!
