Chapter 338 Moving Towards the Goal
Zhang Lei finally figured out what happened when she found that the War Star suddenly folded.
The War Star had just carried out an over-the-horizon attack, with an attack distance of an astonishing 1.12 light years, and it forcibly killed the folding blocker in the center of the Zerg swarm. The preheated and charged folding engine immediately folded after the Probe obtained the stable gravitational line coordinates.
At this time, the War Star had appeared at the final destination of their trip, the nest of the Zerg master, which was the former capital galaxy of the Human Federation and the real home planet of mankind.
The moment the folding was completed, Qi Yiming saw the planet that he was so familiar with.
But when he saw hundreds of millions of insects, his excitement instantly dropped to the freezing point.
The dense swarm of insects reminded Qi Yiming all the time that this was the nest of the Zerg master, and whether humans could defeat the Zerg swarm would be determined by the next battle.
Without Qi Yiming's instructions, Fang Min commanded the special fleet to leave the surface of the War Star after the War Star completed the folding, and quickly formed a semicircular defense formation around the War Star.
Under Qi Yiming's command, the war star also launched a high-energy particle oscillation position at the first time.
Then the entire fleet arranged this tight formation and slowly flew towards the planet where the master was.
The master's reaction was not slow either. The moment the war star appeared in the local galaxy, the swarm army was quickly mobilized.
Looking at the orderly mobilized swarm army, Qi Yiming always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he could only launch an attack on the swarm according to the established plan.
The missiles carrying micro-artificial black holes were launched at the first time. Dozens of black hole missiles instantly drilled into the swarm under the impetus of the micro-jump engine. Only one attack caused a huge gap in the neatly arranged swarm formation.
Looking at the defense line that was torn open so easily, Qi Yiming's mood, which had dropped to freezing point, became active again.
Fang Min took this opportunity to command the special fleet to frantically pour firepower on the swarm blocking the fleet.
Millions of high-energy particle beams did not need precise aiming at all. The next second after the launch, they hit the Zerg 1.2 light minutes away from the fleet.
Under the interference of the battle star, even the elite Zerg troops seemed vulnerable when facing the crazy firepower tilt of the special fleet.
Millions of individual Zergs were pierced by high-energy particle beams and turned into corpses floating in space.
Of course, this is the nest of the Zerg after all. For the battle star that suddenly appeared in the local galaxy, the attack power displayed by the Zerg was much stronger than the Zerg that Qi Yiming and his team had encountered before.
Especially the large number of explosive mosquitoes launched by Leviathan. The Leviathan battleship group, which was originally large in number, launched a number of explosive mosquitoes that far exceeded the interception limit of the raid fleet's anti-aircraft firepower.
Fortunately, each neuron battleship only needs to maintain the survival of one person, so the large amount of space saved makes the neuron battleship have more room for improvement.
Therefore, having a high-intensity energy shield is a necessary defensive weapon for each neuron battleship.
Even if a large number of explosive mosquitoes hit the warships, the explosive mosquitoes, which were originally weakened by the oscillating field, only hit the energy shields of each warship and created a series of energy ripples, which did not cause much damage to the warships themselves.
Even some unlucky warships, whose shields were broken after being attacked by a large number of explosive mosquitoes, still blocked the attack of the explosive mosquitoes with their thick armor layer.
But the problem is that the swarm does not only have this kind of attack method. Following the explosive mosquitoes are a large number of flying dragons.
They quickly surrounded the neuron warships one by one, spraying plasma bombs from their tails, and formed a high-intensity continuous attack on each warship.
Seeing the sudden increase in casualties, Qi Yiming certainly would not sit still and wait for death. He immediately ordered the repair drones in the support area of the war star to take off. These frigate-sized drones carry a large number of nanorobots inside, which can provide uninterrupted maintenance support for friendly ships.
The Guardian in the support area controls the nanorobot production line in the support area of the war star, producing nanorobots non-stop. The drone assembly line not far from the production line is also working at full capacity, continuously assembling new drones. These newly assembled drones will carry a large number of nanorobots to continuously replenish the battlefield.
Fang Min's special fleet was able to block the attack of the swarm army with the support of drones.
Of course, this does not mean that the assault fleet is only capable of this. Don't forget that there is a big guy behind the special fleet.
At this time, the real combat power of the war star was brought into play by Qi Yiming.
A large number of turrets drilled out from the surface of the war star, and the north and south poles of the war star extended two giant cannons about 2.5 kilometers long and more than 500 meters in caliber.
These two giant cannons are not energy weapons, they fire physical ammunition.
The huge projectiles are accelerated to 50% of the speed of light in the super-long barrel, using super kinetic energy to bombard the enemy ship.
Although this weapon cannot achieve beyond-visual-range strikes at ultra-long distances, it can demonstrate stronger attack power than energy weapons in battlefields with a narrow range of engagement.
At this time, the enemy and our side are engaged in an offensive and defensive battle around the planet where the Overlord is located. The battlefield situation is just right for these two giant cannons to exert their powerful attack capabilities.
The moment the four solid shells were fired out of the barrel, they were cut by the high-energy laser net that suddenly appeared at the muzzle. The huge shells were cut into countless small projectiles, which flew towards the swarms of insects crowded in various places on the battlefield at 50% of the speed of light.
The powerful kinetic energy instantly penetrated the biomass armor of the insects. One or two would be fine, but the density of the distribution of small projectiles almost covered the entire production length, and each insect was attacked by these small projectiles almost from beginning to end.
This attack is like a shotgun on the battlefield of ancient humans. It hits a large area with one shot. The lucky enemies are only hit by a few projectiles, and the unlucky ones are hit by dense projectiles all over their bodies.
The current swarm of insects is facing this kind of attack. No insect is spared where the projectiles sweep, and the biomass brought by the projectiles passing through the body is scattered all over the battlefield.
The flying dragon group war stars that originally surrounded the special fleet destroyed it with just one attack.
As for the neuron warships of the special fleet, they had already received the course correction instructions from the Wise before the dense small projectiles flew over, and avoided the storm caused by the dense projectiles from behind to the greatest extent possible.
Even if some warships were hit by the projectiles fired by the war star, they were not serious and were quickly repaired with the support of drones.
The battle line slowly advanced forward under such circumstances. The assault fleet led by Qi Yiming gradually approached the capital star of the former human federation. Qi Yiming could even imagine the horror of the master when he saw the war star with his own eyes.
