Chapter 424: Apocalypse

At first, people didn't notice how the sky changed overhead.

The first to be discovered was an astronomer who, while observing the universe through the National Astronomical Telescope, stumbled upon a strange space meteorite.

"The trajectory is not quite right!"

The astronomer said to himself that he had noticed that the meteorite was flying at a speed that was increasing far beyond the theoretical calculations. There isn't enough gravity in the solar system to power it, and more importantly, the meteorite is heading towards Earth.

The astronomers' discovery was quickly reported to the government, and it was immediately supported by the relevant departments, who called on their space telescopes to observe the meteorite. Since there have been signs of unification of the governments of the earth, under the auspices of the United Nations, several major powers have jointly built a super telescope on the lunar base.

When the telescope focused on the meteorite, it was horrified to find that it was not a meteorite, but a bug!

Huge bugs!

Lots and lots of bugs!

"Oh my God! These bugs are coming at us! Someone immediately came to his senses and quickly handed this information to the desks of the heads of state. On that day, they held a secret United Nations meeting to discuss the matter.

Some heads of state wanted to keep this matter under wrap so as not to cause too much panic. Some countries disagree, arguing that it is necessary to warn the population in advance so that people can prepare for defense as soon as possible. There are also those who take a neutral attitude, and support whoever shouts loudly.

In the end, it was the opinion of maintaining stability that prevailed, and as a result, most of the people on Earth were concealed from the truth. As for some basic defensive measures, someone still has to do it. A small group of high-ranking officials learned the truth and began to direct the army to build defensive bunkers.

At this time, someone also went to Alex and wanted him to solve the problem.

However, after contacting and understanding, I learned that Alex had already left Earth and could not help. Humanity can only survive this difficult time by relying on itself. All the cutting-edge forces on Earth are ready, and those starships that have been in space have returned, gathering in lunar orbit to wait for the invasion of bugs.

"We can't be beaten so passively. It must be preemptive! So said the chairman of the Soviet Union. He advocated the preemptive launch of nuclear bombs. It's best to be able to get rid of the bugs in space.

Such an idea is supported by a lot of people.

China and the United States have also shipped some powerful nuclear bombs from their arsenals and launched them through Starships. However, at this time, the starship is not under the control of any country, nor does it belong to any country. In support of this pest control program. And for the safety of the planet. The Rune Corporation and the SCC Corporation decided to lease the starships out.

Starships can be rented! Isn't that like giving someone away?

With this big cake, several nuclear powers on the earth are very active, and they will divide up the starships at once. In the eyes of others. Lending the starship out was a stupid decision. And it was Alex himself who made this decision, and when he left the World Tree, he gave orders to the people concerned.

In his calculations, these starships are bound to be destroyed by this bug attack, and in that case, it is better to let it go. Doing so will not only boost your prestige, but also motivate people. If you only rely on the power of Rune Tech Corporation to resist the Zerg invasion, it will be a thankless thing.

After obtaining the right to use the starship, the governments of various countries immediately formed a large starship force to pounce on the Zerg in outer space, and at the same time, the production base of Rune Tech was working hard to build a new starship.

Soon, the starship force sent out by the earth encountered the Zerg, at first there were some people who wanted to coexist peacefully, did not believe the warning left by Alex, they wanted to communicate with these Zerg, and the small spaceship sent out was torn to pieces by the bugs before it got close.

In the face of such an outcome, everyone understands that war is inevitable.

"Nuke! Only a nuclear bomb can get rid of so many bugs! ”

"We can't let them break into the orbit of the moon, that's our last line of defense, and once it is breached, our hometown will definitely suffer great damage!"

"Prepare to launch a nuclear rocket!"

After tense communication, it was decided that the Soviet Union would launch several nuclear bombs first to test the strength of the other side. In the astonishment of the people, several small teams were sent out of the mass of bugs to intercept the nuclear bomb at a distance from the large number of bugs by means of suicidal attacks.

"These bugs must belong to highly intelligent creatures!"

Seeing such a thing happening, the people present only felt a chill rising from their backs, they were not afraid of many insects, nor were they afraid of the fierceness of insects, they were afraid that these insects were as smart as people. Then the enemy they face is not so easy to solve, and the enemy with wisdom and without intelligence is a completely different concept.

In fact, the IQ of these remnants of bugs has been greatly reduced. Bugs are different creatures from humans, only one of them can be the leader, and only she has wisdom and soul.

When Alex kills the projection clone of the Zerg Queen, the remaining bugs will naturally mutate, and a new female worm will be born among them, and once this female worm develops, it will definitely become the existence of the Zerg Queen. Now the mother worm in these insects, her wisdom is equivalent to that of an adult, and she can still deal with some simple attacks very appropriately.

However, the humans of the earth mistakenly believe that each of these insects will have a high IQ, which is actually a very wrong idea.

"What to do? They can send death squads to intercept nuclear warheads, and even if we launch nuclear bombs together, there is no way to destroy these bugs. There are too many of them, and we only have a few hundred of them with nuclear bombs. ”

Some people want to back down, they are afraid that after the nuclear bomb is launched, they will have to go shirtless. Fortunately, there are still people in this team who dare to fight, and they don't believe that the other party can send out many death squads. According to their thoughts, if all insects are intelligent, just like humans, then the desire for life is the same.

"As long as all the nuclear bombs are launched, these bugs will not be able to send hundreds of death squads out!"

The plan was quickly approved, and even if they wanted to retreat, they would have to fight first. Now that the bugs haven't pounced, it will make people laugh if they return to the sea.

All nuclear bombs are not launched at the same time. Each starship has a frequency of attack, and they require them not to retreat until they run out of ammunition, and they must fight until they run out of ammunition.

Then, the nuclear bombs rained down on the swarms. At first, the bugs were able to intercept some nuclear bombs, causing the warheads to explode or disable in the middle of the process. But as the frequency of attacks increased and the number of nuclear bombs increased, the bugs made mistakes.

One or two nuclear bombs were leaked and flew towards the swarm, and then after a flash or two, the bugs were more than half gone. What at first seemed to be hundreds of millions of bugs turned into about one or two hundred million. And most of the remaining insects are also wounded.

"Yay!"

"It worked!"

"The power of the nuclear bomb is so cool!"

The earthlings on the starship were encouraged and clapped their hands in celebration. In their opinion, the bugs were beaten so badly at once, and the remaining bugs were not to be feared. However, they did not understand the characteristics of these bugs, and as long as the leader of the bugs was not harmed, the bugs could still recover in a short time.

After suffering such a heavy blow, the mother worm of these bugs realized that it was impossible to break through the starship defense line directly. In the explosion of the nuclear bomb just now, she sacrificed almost half of her men to withstand the impact of the nuclear bomb and all kinds of radiation.

In the face of the impending attack, she was not stupid enough to resist, and immediately separated some bugs to attract fire in place, while the other part of the bugs hugged her and fled in other directions.

"What's going on?"

"Send someone to stop those bugs!"

The humans on the starship saw that the bugs had split into two groups, one of which had fled far away, although not in the direction of Earth, but they were also worried about the consequences. However, because they know too little about the bugs, they don't realize that the group of bugs that escaped is the real body.

Attracted by the bugs that were left behind, they sent a small team to hunt down the fleeing bugs. In fact, the task of this team is only to track and defend and stop the bugs from flying towards the earth.

Eventually, the bugs flew to Mars, and the remaining bugs were destroyed by nuclear bombs.

The First Human-Insect War ended with the victory of the humans.

But what they didn't expect was that this war had just begun, and humanity was still far from victory. The mother leads the remaining bugs and soon finds a suitable area on Mars for breeding. Although Mars does not have a very good living environment like Earth, it is not very bad for this kind of insect that can physically cross space.

As long as water is found, these bugs can multiply quickly. There is indeed water on Mars, and although it is buried deeper, it is difficult for sensitive bugs. They dig deep enough into the ground and then set up camp at the outlet of the water source.

At first, the humans were still very nervous about the escaped bugs, and they also sent starships to surround them, but these bugs were very good at hiding and leading the humans in circles, and they never found their nests.

What's even more cunning is that from time to time, these bugs send one or two small teams to sneak into the earth's atmosphere, so that the nerves of the human army have been staring nervously at the sky, for fear of putting one or two bugs into human society.

As the saying goes, if you defend for a long time, you will lose, and soon the insects broke through the interception of the human army and appeared in front of the ordinary people. And the existence of insects became known, which caused a very big shock. (To be continued......)
