Chapter 1600 Victory Reunion

When the huge drone army entered the hub battlefield and set off a firestorm in the Holy Land, another battle had just come to an end.

At the original site of the Naqdal base group, the invading force composed of corrupted monsters finally tore apart the defense line of the remaining troops after a fierce battle. These mutated and crazy creatures were like wolves gnawing at everything in their path, including those that had lost their power. Armed drones and extinguished sentry turrets, wherever they advance, the space is littered with debris after fierce battles: scorching alloy fragments, spark-jumping remains of fortresses, flesh and blood tissue floating everywhere, and pieces torn apart by explosions black battleship. These wrecks use their still-warm "bones" to show the brutal battles that took place here, and also completely paralyzed the judgment of the commander behind the corrupted monster.

The resistance is so fierce and the defense is so tight. How could there be a pit inside? This must be the base camp of those drones. The judgment of the professional commander must be correct - the commander behind the Corruption Legion will undoubtedly think so.

Inspired by this self-confidence and the sense of accomplishment of finally successfully advancing the front after a fierce battle, the Corruption Legion accelerated its advance and pounced towards the high-energy reaction area sensed by the detector.

There are still sporadic resistances along the way, which are the previously dispersed armed drone units and warning floating artillery groups set up in space. In addition, there are also sparse shield generators that are barely working, interweaving out A blockade that was no longer tight, but the Corrupted Legion was now under command, so they resisted the urge to continue to entangle with these sporadic guards. After clearing out the most threatening turrets, the monsters went straight past the blockade. line and continue to move closer to the depths of the base group.

The gravity well generators used to block jumps have been shut down at some point - maybe the firepower in the fierce battle destroyed the energy systems of these gravity wells, or maybe there is no such annoying equipment deep in the base complex. The commander of the Corrupted didn't care about this at all. Anyway, without those ubiquitous jump interruptions, the monster army could advance deeper into the enemy's fortress at a faster speed: the changes that had taken place on the hub battlefield had slightly caused The Corruptor Commander is vigilant. It feels that it can no longer waste its troops in this remote place. This place must be defeated quickly.

The depths of the base complex were unexpectedly empty, but a huge space structure appeared in front of the corrupted army. The scene in this space structure dispelled - or temporarily diverted - the corrupted commander's doubts.

It was a loose spherical building complex formed by countless weird spiers. Each spiers released straight lights and barriers. These lights were intertwined to form neat squares one after another. Within the squares, Various twisted and mutated wreckage samples are quietly suspended.

This is a research facility, which is used by drone swarms to study the enemy's weaknesses. The Corruptor commander immediately made this judgment and realized the importance of this facility, so the monster army immediately dispersed cautiously around the spherical structure. , and then cautiously approached those shimmering barriers.

As expected, this facility has its own defense system. The "node spiers" located at the vertices of each grid launched a counterattack as the enemy approached, but for the army of Corruptors that had broken through the entire blockade, From a practical point of view, the self-defense firepower of such a mere "research institute" is of no importance at all. The existence of these defense systems actually made the monsters feel at ease, and then poured into every square like a tide.

They want to destroy the research here and prevent the drones from continuing to master the Corruptors' weaknesses.

Then, "art" exploded.

Endless heat and light erupted from each node spire, and even the space itself began to tremble violently in front of this terrifying energy release. The entire spherical space structure was quickly filled with firelight like a ignited cotton ball, and then The whole thing collapsed inward, taking the space itself with it!

The monsters reacted. The monsters in the outer area were almost immediately ready to enter the hyperspace state to escape from this terrifying place. However, they only discovered now that the jump disruption effect that had disappeared without knowing when had reappeared. .

The grand art event continues to be staged in this distant space, and the gaming experience of the participants is extremely poor...

"The 'surprise' we left has worked." The data terminal flew in front of Hao Ren, his whole body filled with a happy glow - well, it usually shined, "at least one-half of the intruders Being trapped inside, none of them should be able to escape after the space collapses."

After hearing the good news, Hao Ren frowned: "Half of it? Still can't keep all of it?"

"Okay, partner, don't be greedy." The data terminal swayed from side to side, "Not everyone is as good as you. If half of those monsters can fall in, their commander is reckless. The cancer has spread and the brain has been flooded with water - and we have to thank the drones we left behind for their superb acting skills. With so many corrupt monsters, some of them will definitely escape, and we must be prepared to deal with them: the situation on the key battlefield has become clear, and those The monster knows that this is a premeditated action, and the troops who escaped from the base group will probably come here soon..."

"It doesn't matter..." Hao Ren looked up at the tactical diagram, "We have more people."

The battle between the Guardian Giants and the Corruptors is no longer fierce. The protagonists of the battlefield are gradually becoming those armed drones coming from all directions. In front of the vast ocean-like fleet, the Corrupted Monsters have always been proud of their numerical superiority. For the first time, it actually showed the trend of being submerged.

They are overwhelming and endless. As long as you are on this battlefield, all you can see are the surging silvery white waves and the never-ending flash of artillery fire. The deep space background has long been completely covered up, even Even the nearby friendly units have been overwhelmed by the fleet. As the battle progresses, any "person" trapped on this battlefield will find that he has become alone without knowing it, with no one except himself in the field of vision. , just the fleet.

This is what it's like to fight against an army of drones.

On the Guardian Legion's flagship "Aiur", Salaman and his adjutants and advisory team had fallen completely silent. No one spoke. Even the reports from various control seats were interrupted for a long time. Except for various instruments and equipment, Apart from the buzzing sound, the bridge was silent.

Everyone is staring blankly at the scene of space being filled with drones, shocked by the horror displayed by the silver wave: the battlefield is already filled with these cold mechanical lives, but every moment, every minute Every second, there are still tens of thousands of drones filling in, as if their goal is not to win in battle at all, but to physically cram this space into a dense solid metal block.

Of course, this is a very exaggerated statement, but the sight of drones constantly pouring in is really hard to resist.

This is the result of pressing F2 twice more (crossed out).

Finally, the young adjutant spoke: "Legion Commander, our soldiers everywhere have stopped attacking... There is really no way to fight."

The adjutant's face looked a little pale: "Optical observation has failed, drones are everywhere in space, radars are also blinded, the battlefield is filled with various unidentifiable interference signals, and all artillery firing areas have been blocked... …If these drones hadn’t left us a ‘reserved channel’ as agreed, I’m afraid we would have lost contact with all combat units.”

Salaman can only comfort himself: "At least so far, these drones are operating in strict accordance with the previous agreement."

On the periphery of this battlefield, the Giant Turtle Rock Platform and the Nakdal Fortress were quietly suspended in space, surrounded by an escort array composed of countless second-echelon armed drones. After observing the battlefield situation, Nolan couldn't help but said: "Boss, I find that we don't seem to need to let the Nakdal Fortress appear..."

"Just armed drones are enough to clear the frontal battlefield," Vivian also nodded lightly, "During this period, we mobilized all armed drones within the entire X star cluster, and also from outside the X star cluster. Hundreds of army groups have been mobilized, and the numerical advantage of drones here is too great."

Hao Ren shook his head and pointed at the holographic projection: "The existence of Naqdar Fortress is necessary. The reason why the drone has achieved such great results is actually because the thing has not moved yet."

Hao Ren pointed at the edge of the battlefield, where a dark red "planet" was standing still in a way that violated the laws of nature, neither revolving nor rotating, like a dormant giant beast.

Vivian frowned and said the name she heard from the goblin: "Amantil...the Corruptor's planetary battleship."

It was a dark planet filled with unknown light. It originally had the same bright atmosphere and lush ecological environment as Nakdar. However, after the power of the Crazy Lord exploded, it completely distorted everything on the planet's surface. Now it The water is full of corrosion, the atmosphere is hot and poisonous, all living things have turned into twisted monsters like those in space, the sacred temples and crystal towers are all destroyed, and a huge rift stretches across the equator of the planet The location almost cut off the planet like a terrifying wound - in the picture returned by the detector, Hao Ren could clearly see that there were countless surging substances that looked like blood in the rift, and A steady stream of monsters emerge from there.

The drone swarm once tried to get close to the planetary battleship, but in front of the latter, the numerical advantage was not so effective. After suffering huge battle losses, Hao Ren stopped this senseless wasteful behavior and focused on the frontal battlefield. duel.

Nolan said: "The Guardian's 'Agudar' planetary battleship is a reciprocal deterrent force. With it, Amantil will not enter at will."

"Agudar has been severely damaged," Hao Ren said about the information he got from the goblins and Salaman. "Almost all of its conventional weapons were paralyzed, and its mobility and protection capabilities were only less than one-third of normal conditions. , except for the doomsday weapon 'Final Torrent' that is still intact, the role Agudal can play is actually just a 'deterrence'. So if it is really urgent, it is possible for Amantil to enter."

"Of course, Amantil is not that scary," he added. "As far as I know, Amantil is not completely undamaged. Its doomsday weapons have been damaged in past battles and are completely irreparable. Therefore, Although it poses a great threat to the drone swarm, it is not completely invincible. If you really want to fight for the super high battle damage, the drone swarm can still defeat it - if there is Naqdar Fortress to assist in the battle, the situation will be even worse..."

Before he finished speaking, Nolan's voice suddenly interrupted him: "Boss! The enemy is retreating!"

The corrupted legions finally began to retreat.

Although those Corruptors who escaped from the trap set by Hao Ren also joined the battle in the later stage, the overwhelming advantage formed by the drone swarm was irreversible. The increasing pressure on the frontal battlefield made even those who were madly clamored The monsters infected by the main force felt something was wrong. After leaving behind countless wreckage, they finally began to retreat.

But it wasn't a retreat.

Even in the retreat, those monsters were still in good order. They were chased and intercepted by the drone swarm and even forcibly reorganized the order of the team, and then slowly left the battlefield under the cover of Amantil's powerful firepower.

"Partner, are you chasing me?" The data terminal floated up. "If we catch up now, we should be able to expand our victory."

Hao Ren thought for a moment and made the decision to pursue him naturally.

But at the same time that the drone swarm was swarming in the direction of Amantir's retreat, Nolan suddenly received an emergency communication from the Guardian Legion.

"Boss! The legion commander named Salaman sent an urgent report. He hopes we will not continue the pursuit!"

"Don't pursue?" Hao Ren was shocked.

"Yes," Salaman's image appeared directly on the holographic projection in front of the console, "Please listen to me, continue to pursue, those freaks may make crazy moves that will destroy the entire fortress - but Amanti You cannot be destroyed no matter what!"
