Chapter 276 Is This Going to Split?
A few minutes after the Xuefeng launched another attack, the captains of the other warships also responded one after another and began to follow the Xuefeng to clear out the remaining Zerg swarms.
The threat level of the Zerg army to the human fleet was greatly reduced when the Zerg King was lost. As long as too many individual Zergs were not attacked at one time, those Zergs that were not attacked would prioritize finding their own kind to fight until the last Zerg.
Under normal circumstances, Qi Yiming could actually let these Zergs kill each other.
But this time the situation was a bit special.
According to humans, this Zerg swarm is an experimental force.
This Zerg swarm, whether it is Leviathan or Zerg individuals, has a relatively special genome in their bodies. This set of genes records the performance of each individual Zerg in the battle. After the Zerg swarm recovers these Zerg individuals, the Overlord will analyze and optimize the information recorded by this set of genes to provide strong information guarantee for further improving the Zerg swarm's combat capability.
Therefore, these Zergs in front of them cannot be allowed to fight, and their numbers must be reduced as much as possible before they complete the fight for the Zerg King.
Because the Zerg will be accompanied by a strong energy fluctuation at the moment of the birth of the new Zerg Emperor, and then the Zerg Emperor will use this strong energy fluctuation to break through the air, which is equivalent to the space jump characteristic of the Xuefeng.
However, this energy can be controlled, that is to say, the fewer Zerg Emperors killed by the Zerg Swarm, the smaller the energy fluctuation.
The smaller the energy fluctuation, the longer the preparation time for the Zerg Emperor's space jump. In this case, Qi Yiming has the opportunity to kill the newly generated Zerg Emperor.
Soon, the chaotic Zerg swarm was rapidly reduced in number under the siege of the human fleet.
Under Qi Yiming's deliberate suppression, the Zerg that exceeded a certain number of kills were set as priority targets. When the Zerg Emperor of the Zerg Swarm was born, it actually did not complete many kills.
The huge energy fluctuation that should have appeared did not appear, and the newly generated Zerg Emperor was blasted into slag by Qi Yiming and the fleet with a salvo.
The fleet stayed near the battlefield for more than an hour and recovered all the lifeboats that were ejected due to abandonment.
In fact, Qi Yiming and his team did not recover many lifeboats.
In this encounter, Ye Lu's men lost more than 3,000 warships, and only less than 200 of the more than 30,000 crew members survived. This is the helplessness of fighting against the Zerg.
A large number of crew members who abandoned their ships and escaped were taken back to Leviathan by the Zerg, along with their lifeboats, and became the swarm's nutrients.
This is the most troublesome thing in the battle between humans and the Zerg.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Qi Yiming knew that he could not stay in this galaxy any longer, and the Zerg Overlord would sooner or later send a new Leviathan warship here to investigate the situation.
After all, the loss of an experimental fleet is a very serious matter for the Zerg Overlord.
Because it means that its upgrade plan for the Zerg will be delayed indefinitely, and it is impossible for the Overlord to organize an experimental fleet to directly fight against the human fleet until new data is formed.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Qi Yiming commanded the fleet to go to the border of the galaxy to meet with the colonial fleet led by Wang Shuhua.
When he took a transport boat to enter the Hope, the city inside the Hope was crowded with people.
Most people were celebrating the victory of the encounter, and only a small number of people had some different ideas.
Qi Yiming didn't know what these people thought, and even if he knew, he was not in the mood to deal with it now.
The most important thing now is to leave this galaxy as soon as possible, the farther the better.
Soon the fleet began to accelerate towards the next rest point, and one warship after another and the colony spacecraft disappeared in front of Qi Yiming and entered the jump channel.
Although this encounter happened very suddenly, fortunately only the rear guard fleet suffered some losses.
If the Zerg broke through the defense line and entered the fleet composed of colony spacecraft, Qi Yiming would have no place to cry.
When the fleet entered the jump voyage, it was Qi Yiming's most leisurely time.
But Qi Yiming didn't expect that when there were more idle people, troubles would come.
The publicity plan that had been discussed with Fang Min was fully rolled out after a live broadcast of the battle with the Zerg.
Qi Yiming originally thought that with that live broadcast, the publicity effect should be better.
He did not ask everyone to shoulder the responsibility of human resurgence like him, and Qi Yiming himself did not think that he would lead human resurgence.
Qi Yiming's only idea was to take human beings back to their home planet and take back their home from the enemy.
But I didn't expect that this propaganda was a bit too much, causing serious polarization.
Some people formed serious pessimistic thoughts, believing that human beings could not defeat the Zerg, even with the Xuefeng, they could not defeat the Zerg.
These people are mainly concentrated in the army.
Although these people gave great affirmation to the Xuefeng fighter, they knew better than anyone the horror of the Zerg army, and it was not something that a Xuefeng could resist, otherwise they would not have to embark on the road of escape again.
Another part of the people was a little too optimistic, and they believed that the Zerg was only terrifying on the surface, but not invincible in fact.
These people are mainly concentrated among civilians.
These people also gave a very high evaluation of the Xuefeng, especially through that special live broadcast, they intuitively realized the combat power of the Xuefeng, and they were more convinced that the Zerg was vulnerable to the human fleet.
The reason why humans embarked on the road of escape was entirely due to the extreme lack of confidence of the human leaders.
At this time, human society actually showed signs of division.
As a soldier, Qi Yiming was not a qualified politician.
He originally thought that as long as propaganda was done well, some more extreme ideas in human society would gradually dissipate. Little did he know that propaganda was done, but it could not withstand the interpretation of some people with intentions.
Ordinary people are blind. When a statement becomes the mainstream of society, even if a person has the ability to think independently, he will inevitably be led astray by mainstream ideas.
As a result, the division of human society became more and more obvious. When another jump voyage entered the second year, this situation finally had a breaking point.
At first, it was just two friends arguing about whether the Zerg Leviathan was powerful or the human Xuefeng was powerful, but as the topic deepened, people who lacked entertainment joined the discussion.
At the beginning, people with different opinions could discuss calmly, and at most they would raise their voices when the discussion was most intense.
However, as the number of people discussing increased, the scene became chaotic, and finally a small discussion turned into a violent incident that affected the entire colonial ship.
The two sides formed two distinct factions, fighting each other on the streets, and even casualties occurred in some places.
