Chapter 256: Chapter 232: The Insect King of Tianzhu Attacks! (8000)_3

"Three sets of mecha per person, with this equipment, we’re now the most luxurious combat squad in the world!" Qiu Hong laughed.

"This mission, we guarantee to complete it!" Jie Lang and Feng Xiaolong said confidently, "Find that Insect Nest and flip it over!"

Lv Mei cautioned, "Don’t rely too much on equipment, the Zerg’s abilities cannot be underestimated. If you encounter electromagnetic interference, strong currents, or corrosive poisonous gas, even with ten sets of armor, your lives would be in danger!"

"Yes!" Everyone saluted.

They certainly knew that if these equipment alone could wipe out the Zerg, then the Zerg would be too weak.

Take for example the corrosive poisonous gas from the Thousand Legs, these gears can’t even get close, not to mention there are sonic weapons, high energy beams, and other weapons.

The Hunting Tiger Operation squad immediately began action, first becoming familiar with the equipment, then formulating operational opportunities, heading to the Ganges River plains overrun by insect swarms.

...

For ease of maneuvering in combat, He Xingzhou made the plasma cannon modular in form, separating its parts, using flying mecha as the unit to carry it.

Similarly, the Nuclear Electromagnetic Pulse Emitter was also configured this way for timely battlefield support.

...

Two months later, at the edge of Shen Zhou Territory.

Under the continuous bombardment of the Missile Forces, the speed of the insect swarm’s attack was delayed for a whole month.

At first, the insect swarm was quite dense, but after being bombed a few times, these insects began to disperse.

Due to the length of the defense line, Zerg density decreased, the effectiveness of the missile bombardment dwindled, and it brought tremendous pressure to the defense line.

To ensure timely intelligence gathering, satellites, drones, unmanned mechas, and reconnaissance units patrol day and night without stopping.

In a valley region of the defense line, a patrolling unmanned mecha was suddenly attacked and crashed to the ground.

"Warning, patrol mecha T-18 crashed, please investigate immediately!" The Xuanwu System alerted the monitoring station.

"T-18 patrol mecha crashed, immediately dispatch drone mechas for reconnaissance!" Monitor Luo Han relayed the message while dispatching reconnaissance teams to investigate.

Satellites in low Earth orbit pointed their remote sensing lenses at this valley, but due to the fog in the valley, satellite imaging revealed no anomalies.

The patrol drone mecha quickly reached the target area, carrying a bunch of small drones along.

When the reconnaissance lens unfolded, Luo Han saw a hair-raising scene: the valley had already been occupied by the insect swarm, all sorts of odd-shaped, various-sized insects stacked in several layers, swiftly marching in the valley!

Infrared laser scans showed over five million insects within the detection range, stretching beyond sight!

The drone mecha and reconnaissance drones lasted less than a minute before being overwhelmed by the insect swarm!

"Warning, insect swarm incoming! Warning, insect swarm incoming!" Luo Han sprang up, sending an alert to the command center, simultaneously dispatching more reconnaissance robots for investigation.

"The insect swarm is here!" The command center received the information and immediately deployed actions.

"Defense forces, proceed to the valley area immediately!"

"Missile Forces, lock target area!"

"Activate laser array and arc array module!"

"Apart from the valley, it’s our territory, trap the insect swarm within the valley!"

Various defense teams immediately moved towards the target area.

At this time, the air raid siren sounded in nearby areas, "Alert, insect swarm incoming, please proceed to the nearest shelter immediately!"

"The insect swarm is here?" The people evacuated swiftly, spreading the news online.

"The billion Zerg army coming from the Ganges River plains has attacked!"

"Our battle with the land insect swarm is about to begin!" People were paying attention.

At that moment, on an international channel, the Insect Man Jai Ba was somehow using a communications channel, broadcasting on the internet.

In the footage, Jai Ba stood atop an enormous, scorpion-like Level 8 Zerg, with countless insects behind him.

"People of Shen Zhou, listen up!"

"Our king has already advanced with billions of army troops, prepare to greet our king’s arrival!"

"Anyone who resists will be crushed to become food for the larvae; those who are willing to obey our king, take up your weapons, go and kill those who resist, and you will, like me, become a higher form of life!"

Jai Ba laughed arrogantly, previously blown up till only his head remained, yet now his body had regrown.

He’s threatened humans many times before. This kind of psychological warfare under the immense pressure from the Zerg often leads to many losing sanity, mentally collapsing! It brings mental devastation to enemies!

In previous places, incidents of people killing those who resisted the Zerg and surrendering due to overwhelming fear had occurred.

That’s why Jai Ba wants to do it this way, but this time, he didn’t succeed, the opponent’s reaction was entirely different from those survivors before.

Shen Zhou’s netizens saw his message, scolding vehemently: "Traitor! You have the guts to come out, believe me, I’ll beat your shit out!"

"What bullshit insect, let it try?"

"Remember this guy, we’ll make him into dried insect!"

"High-level life form, made us laugh! Aren’t you just a Dummy Head controlled by insect thoughts?"

Jai Ba, wearing smart equipment, saw these online replies, his face turned grim: "Laugh now, soon you’ll be begging me on your knees!"

The insect swarm’s vanguard forces, about to charge out of the valley!

They were black armored insects the size of heavy trucks, estimated to number tens of thousands, and when they charged together, the earth trembled!
