Chapter 378
Four big characters are painted on the hull of this fleet: Lion Legion.
Of course, this fleet with only 500 warships is not the main force of the Lions Legion, and the commander of the Lions Legion, Captain Philip, was not here.
Steve, male, twenty-three years old, is the highest commander of the Fifth Detachment of the Lions Legion and a new generation of generals who are highly concerned in the Lions Legion.
Steve graduated from Jiangling Military Academy in the Redel Empire. After graduation, he was not successful. It was not until he entered the Lions that Steve made his mark and made great contributions in several confrontations with Xiao Hei's Black Shark Fleet. He became the captain of this fleet composed of a thousand space warships at the age of 23.
This fleet is known as the Sixth Fleet of the Lion Legion and is well-known among the one hundred fleets of the Lion Legion.
"Captain, when will we act?" A young officer in a straight military uniform walked up to Steve and gave a standard military salute.
"Wait, now the colorful shell insects are launching an attack, and the nest uses low-frequency infrasonic waves to interfere with communication. Our attack is inappropriate. The most important thing is that the resistance on the surface of the Meilan star seems to be very fierce. If the Meilan star does not fall completely, we will encounter great resistance." Steve reviewed the holographic images at the beginning. Although these holographic images are not very clear, you can see the basic situation of the largest city in Meilan star. It can be clearly seen that the colorful shell insects seem to be killed by a group of horse riding people.
Steve kept reading the holographic images. Unfortunately, because the distance was too far and the interference of the colorful shells and insects, some of the images were blurry and they could not see clearly the surface of the planet.
For Zhenzhen, this planet is too important. The food pressure on Future Star is getting greater and greater. Through various means, in just a few months, the population of Future Star has exceeded 30 million. Large-scale immigration has brought powerful technological power and population resources to Future Star.
In addition to bringing opportunities for sustainable development to the future stars, the rapid population has also brought various problems, such as environmental protection, ecological balance, pollution, etc. Among them, the biggest problem is to solve the food problem of more than 30 million people.
The future star has a vast territory, but this is not a suitable planet for planting. The temperature of this planet is suitable and the harvest cycle is as long as half a year. Moreover, because the huge good beast occupies a large area of fertile grassland, if planted, it will inevitably put this herbivore on the verge of extinction. The amazing herbivore of the good beast is destined, and this planet can only feed them.
Obviously, in order to feed the rapidly expanding population of the future star, one must find a channel, because interstellar wars occur frequently, and the colorful shellworms cut off countless interstellar routes. Now, the entire human alliance is in a state of semi-hungry, and the usual cheap nutrient solution has become a shortage of substances, and the food that makes nutrient solution has become a strategic substance...
When Zhenzhen heard that Mei Lanxing, the granary of the Imperial Federation, was besieged by the colorful shellworms, she immediately asked Philip to take action and sent the Lion Legion's Ace Sixth Fleet.
However, there is a problem with this. Although Meilan Star is an affiliated planet of the Imperial Federation, its identity is different, because Meilan Star is a highly autonomous planet and is not a colonial star of the Imperial Federation. Moreover, when the Imperial Federation did not exist, Meilan Star had the first batch of immigrants. In fact, in addition to providing protection for Meilan Star nominally, the Imperial Federation did not have much constraints on Meilan Star. Its main purpose is to control food resources in its hands.
For these reasons, the real army cannot seize the Meilan Star like robbing territory. After all, Meilan Star belongs to a private planet, and the owner of the planet is the indigenous people of Meilan Star.
In the Human Alliance, individual wealth is sacred and inviolable, and must be higher than national interests. No country or organization can cross the line of the moment. If someone tries to challenge this bottom line of mankind, it will definitely become the target of public criticism.
To occupy Meilan Star, Meilan Star must become a masterless planet.
Undoubtedly, snatching Meilan Star from the hands of the colorful shellworm is much lower than directly snatching Meilan Star. Zhenzhen doesn't want to leave a stain on her fame in history, and Zhenzhen doesn't want to be an enemy of the entire human alliance.
Seeing the colorful shell bugs landing on a large scale in the distance, Steve's eyes showed a hint of anxiety. It was obvious that the colorful shell bug's attack encountered strong resistance, which made the colorful shell bug's nests have to interfere with the planet's ground electronic equipment at close range.
Any soldier who came out of the Future Star has already had the experience of fighting with the colorful shellworms several times. Advanced colorful shellworm linking the nest to interfere with the electronic equipment has become an open secret.
However, although insect nests can interfere with electronic equipment, they must be within an effective distance. This distance is very dangerous. The insect nest must venture into the planet's surface from space. The two-kilometer-long insect nest is undoubtedly a huge goal. When the planet's surface is not completely controlled, the landing process is definitely a high-risk action.
It seems that the resistance encountered by the colorful shell bugs is very fierce. Steve is very clear that when the colorful shell bugs do not gain absolute advantage and control, the insect bugs generally do not land easily unless the ground troops encounter a powerful opponent and are about to finally end up in a catastrophe, the insect bugs have to provide support.
The nest and the colorful shellworm are a complementary community. If the colorful shellworms sent out are wiped out, there will be no nests that provide nutrition for the colorful shellworms.
...
Zou Zichuan didn't know that there was a fleet in the vast outer space paying close attention to Mei Lanxing. He led a surprise soldier to run towards the base station at lightning speed.
The streets are full of broken mechas and corpses of colorful shellworms, and foul fluids flow. From time to time, you can see colorful shellworms eating corpses of humans and animals. The sharp sickle cuts food extremely evilly, which is shocking to see.
The buildings were broken one by one, and the ground was covered with scratches from the arthropods. The colorful shellworms that were initially restrained showed their fierce side. It seemed that they also sensed the support of the insect nest.
This is a battle for time.
If Zou Zichuan can repair the physical links of the defense system as soon as possible, the insect nests landing in the air will become targets.
Killing a nest is more effective than killing ten thousand colorful shell insects. The colorful shell insects that lose the nest are like weaning a baby. It is a very long time to build a new insect nest. Moreover, building a insect nest requires an insect king, and the birth of an insect king requires countless conditions. Most insect kings split from the insect nest, rather than from nature...
The holographic phased position is not far from the underground base. Because of deliberately avoiding entanglement with the colorful shellworms, Zou Zichuan has led more than 20 martial arts masters to the holographic phased position. The damage to the position was not serious, only three colorful shellworms broke in, and dozens of police officers who were in charge of the ground troops were shooting at the colorful shellworms with the help of the cover of the terrain. Unfortunately, these policemen were all light weapons, shooting on the solid exoskeleton of the colorful shellworms as if it was itchy, but instead it aroused the ferociousness of the colorful shellworms. They were rushing unscrupulously on the position. Some huge steel brackets were twisted and deformed, and at least one-fifth of the holographic scanning radar brackets were destroyed.
This holographic phased position was originally guarded by the Imperial Federation, because the space fleet of the Imperial Federation retreated and handed over to the police forces on the planet.
"Captain...we are going to die." In the corner of a steel bracket, a childish policeman curled up in a ball with a gun in his arms, shivering all over, and stammeringly said to a slightly older police officer beside him.
"Xiaojie, we are policemen. It is our duty to protect citizens' life safety and national property." The police officer did not look back, staring at the body of an approaching giant colorful shellworm in front of him.
"But we are just policemen, not army, this is what the army does." Xiaojie looked nervously at the huge shadow, his eyes full of fear.
The officer did not answer, sweat was flowing from his forehead, and something seemed to be thinking about on his serious face.
"Captain, why should the army retreat?" Xiaojie didn't look at that serious face at all.
"Xiaojie, I can't answer. You are still young. Remember, if you want to survive, you must survive. You young people are Mei Lanxing's hope. Mei Lanxing's future is in your hands." The captain gritted his teeth and showed a decisive expression.
"Captain, I...I want to..." Xiaojie looked at the huge shadow that almost blocked this corner, and his face showed endless fear. His already trembling body was curled into a ball of trembling. Because he was too nervous, he began to twitch subconsciously.
"Xiaojie, no matter what happens, don't run around, remember!"
"Where can you run to..." Xiaojie looked depressed, raised his head and glanced at him, immediately bent down and hid.
"Well, remember, don't move around, I'll pull away the colorful shellworm..."
"Captain, ah..."
Xiaojie was stunned. As soon as he shouted, he subconsciously reached out and pulled his hand, but it was too late. The captain picked up an ancient rifle and ran out like a gust of wind.
"Click!"
"boom!"
"Click!"
"boom!"
...
With a series of explosive sounds of loading shooting, the captain rushed towards the colorful shellworm that was walking towards Shiran, and shot at the colorful shellworm frantically, firing three shots in a row, and then ran in another direction, trying to lure the colorful shellworm away.
Obviously, the captain wanted to pull the approaching colorful shellworm away from Xiao Jie.
Unfortunately, the captain's attempt failed, and for some reason, the colorful shell bug ignored the captain who shot and still walked forward with a swagger. For the huge body weighing dozens of tons and the strong exoskeleton, the shooting of the rifle had no lethality at all.
"Damn it, come to me!"
"Click!"
"boom!"
"Click!"
"boom……"
...
When the captain saw that the colorful shellworms were not chasing, he was furious and turned back and ran towards the colorful shellworms. He was almost twenty meters away from the larger colorful shellworms, and kept loading and shooting.
This time, he succeeded, and the colorful shellworm was successfully angered by him. Moreover, the colorful shellworm waved its huge sickle and rushed towards the captain fiercely, with an unparalleled power along the way.
"Come on, damn it." The captain laughed wildly, and suddenly loaded it. Only then did he realize that the rifle had no bullets. Without thinking, he threw the rifle down and ran towards the dense holographic phased positions.
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
...
The heavy body of the colorful shellworm made the ground tremble and the earth shaking.
"Captain, captain, damn it, come to me, come to me..."
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
...
Looking at the captain being chased, Xiaojie didn't know where the courage came from, so he suddenly jumped out, following the tail of the colorful shellworm and shooting wildly while cursing.
"Shit..."
A low and angry chirping sounded in the air, and the air seemed to be torn apart.
With a loud "Boom!", the colorful shell insect turned around and its sharp sickle cut down an iron tower. The iron tower fell to the ground with a loud bang, dust filled with dust and dust flew...
"Xiaojie, run!"
“…”
Watching the colorful shellworms running towards me frantically, Xiaojie looked blankly, his whole body was cold, and the courage of time disappeared instantly, and his tender face showed a kind of dullness, filled with nostalgia for life.
"Xiaojie, run!" The captain felt his voice hoarse and powerless, and suddenly fell to the ground, staring blankly at the colorful shell insect like a mountain rushed towards Xiaojie with a thunderous force, slowly closed his eyes, and turbid tears flowed out of the corners of his eyes.
It's approaching!
It's approaching!
Thirty meters.
Twenty meters!
Fifteen meters!
Xiaojie's pupils shrank like a needle tip, and the colorful shellworm's body became bigger and bigger, and it had completely occupied his pupils.
The huge sickle had risen, and Xiaojie's brain seemed to be playing a movie at this moment. From childhood joy to adulthood, to work, time seemed to become extremely slow at this moment. Xiaojie closed his eyes, and for no reason, a strange smile appeared on his face.
No one knows whether death is happiness or pain, but countless scientists have proved that when a person dies, he will mobilize memory cells, and look back on his life like a movie. Perhaps, pauses in pain are pain, pauses in happiness are happiness, and no one knows...
"Peng!"
"Shit..."
At this moment when time and space solidified, a shocking loud noise and scream woke up the captain and Xiaojie who were closing their eyes at the same time.
Looking at the colorful shell insects twitching and screaming on the ground, the captain and Xiaojie both looked at the shocking scene in front of him with a dull look on their faces...
A young man.
A young man holding a spear in his hand and his eyes were as deep as the vast universe.
Under the spear of this young man, the triangular head of the colorful shellworm was nailed to the colorful shellworm, as if it had taken root. No matter how the colorful shellworm struggled, the spear seemed to be a magic needle for the sea, and remained motionless.
Time and space frozen again, Xiaojie and the captain's eyes were dull, with an incredible look on their faces, and they looked foolishly at the shocking scene in front of them...
