The giant corporations that started in Night City - Chapter 397

“Assemble–!”

Under the psychic control of the Blade Queen, the Zerg fleet continued to produce combat units while advancing against the bombardment of the Universal Corporation.

In order to protect the remaining Zerg Lords, countless dragons approached them, forming a living protective shield layer by layer.

With the help of the dragon shield, the Lords could reach the defensive position and destroy the turret facilities of the Corporation.

When the hard light cannons of other turrets attacked, these dragons would actively form an array and block forward, like moths to a flame, intercepting these deadly artillery groups.

Doing so can reduce the damage to the Zerg Lords as much as possible, even if thousands of dragons will be lost every time they are bombarded, that is worth it.

At the same time, the flagship Leviathan where the Blade Queen was located was also wrapped by dense dragons.

Three layers inside and three layers outside, the entire Leviathan was blocked tightly. Every time it was attacked and damaged, more dragons would appear to replenish it.

This is the defense mode of the Zerg fleet!

Unlike the Protoss’s psychic shield and the human’s armor shield, the Zerg’s defense is quite plain, that is, relying on countless bugs as front-line meat shields.

This method seems cruel and inhumane, but for the Zerg with explosive productivity, it is the lowest cost and most efficient defense method.

The use of energy by bugs is basically carried out in genetic evolution. Humans use energy with tools, while bugs only need to adjust their own gene sequences.

Relying on the tactics of consumption and production, the Zerg fleet pushed the first line of defense system.

Under the cover of the flying dragon, the brood lord released a large number of worm sacs and threw them on the orbital array, gradually encroaching on the space of the AI ​​turret array and destroying the weapons facilities of the giant enterprise.

After the two sides fought for several hours, the Zerg fleet finally advanced to the last three galaxy orbital areas.

Although the Queen of Blades’s advancement was unstoppable, the process was not smooth, and more than half of the Zerg troops had been killed.

Even if the Zerg troops can continue to be replenished, the Zerg have not absorbed any nutrients along the way.

They can only continuously dispatch more reinforcements from the rear.

It turns out that under the sturdy defense of the Universal Corporation, all planetary life in the front-line orbital defense system has long been cleared out.

Not to mention organisms and plants, even a simple cell will not be left to these bugs!

The Blade Queen calculated the consumption in her mind while estimating the advancement time. The breakthrough line in front has wasted her too much time.

If this continues, it may be too late!

“Speed ​​up the attack and give priority to launching airdrop capsules.”

As the Blade Queen’s order was issued, a large number of airdrop capsules were projected to the ground of the planet by the Nest Zerg Lord. These airdrop capsules did not wait until the defense system was completely destroyed before they were officially dropped.

Instead, they directly resisted the bombardment of the hard light cannon and forcibly descended to various places on the front-line base star of the Giant Enterprise.

At the same time, groups of flying dragons also entered the various planets in the core orbital area to cover the landing of these airdrop capsules.

However, under the powerful firepower of the orbital gun array, the Zerg inevitably lost a large number of troops.

More than half of the Zerg were blasted into pieces by the hard light cannon during the fall, and completely turned into ashes.

The nest worm lords who relied on flying dragons as cover and shields also suffered heavy casualties during the period.

This is the result of ignoring the hard light turret array and forcibly landing. The Zerg either gnawed down the orbital defense positions one by one, or could only take the harassment with their lives and cross other positions.

Although the risky decision of the Blade Queen aggravated the casualties of the Zerg troops, at least some of the Zerg successfully landed on the front-line base of the giant enterprise.

But what made the Zerg doomed to be disappointed was that even if they broke through here, they still could not get any effective biological nutrients from it.

Because most of the combat units here have long been replaced by AI automated machinery by the Universal Giant Enterprise.

From the fighter planes flying in the air to the combat individuals, all are controlled by powerful AI.

At this time, a huge Zerg airdrop capsule dragged a long tail flame and fell directly into the seabed.

The sea surface hit by the airdrop capsule suddenly turned into a rolling wave and spread out in all directions.

[The Zerg is landing——! ]

After the AI ​​shuttle’s reconnaissance system recognized the invasion of enemy units, it immediately reported the situation.

Almost at the same time, more and larger airdrop capsules fell down, landing on the seabed, the beach not far away, and the dense forest.

Then, the overwhelming flying dragons began to break out of the ground. They gathered into a group and swept towards every facility area of ​​the giant enterprise like locusts passing through.

There is a huge stinging organ on the tail of the flying dragon. It was originally the part where the flying dragon used to lay eggs, but now it has been transformed into a parasitic weapon that can launch “blade insects”.

After being launched, the blade-like insects will immediately curl up and use high-speed rotation to cut armor.

Then they will drill into the target’s body and use their own explosive impact to further destroy the target unit.

At this moment, an AI Skyhawk shuttle was targeted by a group of flying dragons and was hit by dozens of spiral-like blade insects.

The shuttle was destroyed to pieces by the blade insects in an instant, and a large number of instrument parts fell like raindrops.

The remaining AI shuttles immediately used their cannons and anti-air missiles to counterattack. Large-caliber aerial cannons poured out, instantly tearing apart the bodies of several flying dragons.

But the reproduction speed of the Zerg is really astonishing. A large number of new bugs appeared in a short time. Compared with the huge number of Zerg, this level of casualties is nothing at all.

With no other choice, the AI ​​shuttle fleet could only fight and retreat, moving towards the military base in the rear, preparing to rely on the base’s air defense firepower to fight against these flying dragons that were blocking the sky and the sun.

At this time, the defense system of the frontline base was fully activated. The anti-aircraft firepower formed by anti-aircraft turrets and surface-to-air missiles formed a staggered network of death.

The overwhelming flying dragon legions turned into fragments and fell down. The blade insects sprayed by the flying dragon were also blocked by the energy shield force field.

Fortunately, the giant company has prepared enough planetary engines to supply energy, so that the core area of ​​the entire frontline base will not be damaged by the impact of the blade insects.

The AI ​​shuttle being chased by the flying dragon rushed through the shield force field at full speed, but the flying dragon that followed suddenly hit the invisible force field hard.

Just like a fragile bird hitting the tempered glass window of the building, the final result is to break its neck and fall on the spot.

This is a planet-level engine shield force field improved by a global giant. It can not only allow the firepower from inside to hit the outside, but also allow one’s own troops to pass unimpeded.

The enemy units will be ruthlessly intercepted.

Under the protection of this indestructible energy shield force field, the flying dragon’s harassment failed to achieve any more results and could only be used as a target and eliminated by the giant company’s anti-aircraft firepower.

At this moment, the broken limbs of the flying dragon fell like raindrops, and soon a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​bones piled up around the frontline military base.

However, the Zerg’s offensive tactics were executed very patiently.

Under the cover of the flying dragons, a large number of airdrop pods have successfully landed around the frontline base, and the hatched bugs turned into a surging tide and hit this side.

The ground troops of the world’s giants also opened up their firepower at this moment. The large-caliber cannons roared continuously and poured out artillery fire at the Zerg crazily.

The high-speed shock wave generated by the violent explosion set off huge waves among the Zerg troops, and scattered broken limbs and debris in the air and on the ground.

But even with such a fierce bombardment, the Zerg will continue to produce more Zerg troops and attack them. Among them, the fastest moving Zerglings have rushed to the edge of the shield force field.

These bugs hit and bit the energy shield like crazy, trying to destroy the barrier in front of them.

The AI ​​turrets deployed on the city wall strafed them from above. Heavy pulse cannons and Gauss electromagnetic guns fell one after another, sweeping away this group of agile and ferocious springtails.

The rain of bullets mixed with pulse bombs and metal spikes bloomed countless blood flowers among the Zerg, and a large number of springtails turned into a puddle of mud.

At the same time, the rest of the AI ​​hard-light turrets were still firing continuously, filling them with energy crystals and high-energy gas mined from other planets.

Check out the correct version one by one!

Blocking the approaching Zerg fleet.

Fortunately, the “StarCraft” universe is rich in energy crystals and high-energy gas. Otherwise, there is really no way to keep AI turrets and planetary engines carrying high loads.

Although the defense system of the global giants is indeed powerful, the Zerg fleet’s offense is equally outstanding.

The Zerg Legion commanded by the Queen of Blades is always moving forward steadily.

Judging from the current situation, if you want to completely eliminate the Queen of Blades’ Zerg fleet, you still have to rely on fully charged key stones.

Looking at the various defensive positions where the battle was intensifying, Paul felt a little unable to hold back. He looked at Qiansihu and asked:

“Is there any way to speed up the charging speed of the keystone, such as using a few more planetary engines to charge together? Is this feasible?”

The Queen of Blades’ tactics have achieved results. Although the Zerg troops died tragically, their backup did not stop throughout the whole process.

On the other hand, most of the defense systems of the world’s giant companies have been destroyed, and even a large number of bugs have appeared outside the frontline bases.

If this continues, I’m afraid they won’t be able to survive the moment when the key stone is fully charged.

Qian Sihu sighed helplessly, shook his head and said: “The charging principle of the key stone is mainly to activate the huge energy contained in the key stone itself.”

“The energy transferred from the outside to the inside is just an introduction and cannot determine the charging speed of the key stone at all.”

“After our precise calculations, using a planetary engine will almost reach the charging limit. If it is any more, it is likely to explode the keystone fragments.”

Qian Sihu said truthfully, if there was really a way to complete charging in a short time, they would have used it long ago.

The current method is already the optimal solution!

Paul was silent. He turned his head and looked at the holographic screen, silently assessing whether the existing defense system could last until the keystone was fully charged.

At this moment, the raging insect tide is still continuously impacting the energy shield force fields of various fortresses. The accumulated insect remains alone are stacked to nearly a hundred meters outside the force field!

If it weren’t for the ultra-high-temperature laser cannons that burned and cleaned up a batch of Zerg corpses from time to time, I’m afraid the fortresses of various ministries would have been overwhelmed by the insects.

Seeing that the giant company’s frontline base headquarters fortress cannot be conquered for a long time.

The Blade Queen immediately gave instructions to let a large number of Zerglings climb onto the shield force field, and by expanding the contact area, they continued to cause more damage to the barrier.

In an instant, hundreds of base fortresses in various places turned into small hills crawling with insects, and dense dragons and Zerglings tried to drill in from any angle.

Even people who don’t have intensive phobia will feel a little scared when watching this scene. It’s okay if the energy shield force field is not broken.

Once it is broken, the soldiers inside will die instantly!

In order to extend the duration of the shield force field, the AI ​​turrets of various fortresses began to lock on the banelings and make them the primary target for killing.

Unlike the relatively primitive and backward sharp teeth of the Zerglings, the self-destruction effect of the banelings will obviously cause greater damage to the energy shield.

In particular, this kind of insect will produce a high concentration of corrosive acid when it explodes.

This is far more destructive than the claws of the Zerglings.

Therefore, the AI ​​turret would rather ignore and let the Zerglings climb up the shield force field than allow the Banelings to approach here.

The built-in high-precision AI laser ray device will immediately snipe the Banelings among the Zerg after scanning and identification.

But even so, there are still many Banelings that use the cover of other insects to rush under the shield force field and detonate themselves.

The venom splashed on the barrier and continued to erode the shield force field of each fortress.

At this time, the charging progress of the keystone has just reached 13%, but the shield force field of some fortresses has reached a worrying 39%.

Looking at the Zerg with an orderly attack frequency, Li Ang, who is sitting in the headquarters of the Wanjie Base, has already guessed the battle plan of the Blade Queen.

She is testing.

As long as the Universal Corporation can’t hold back and releases some killer moves, the subsequent Thunder Beasts, Nest Lords, and even the flagship Leviathan in the air will immediately go out in full force!

How could Li Ang not see this trick of cheating a key move to facilitate the team fight?

So under his instructions, the current stage of the Universal Corporation mainly focuses on countering the moves, delaying time as much as possible, and waiting for the main force of the Zerg to arrive.

When the main force of the Zerg is almost here, use the killing move to annihilate it.

Just as the Zerg army outside was still struggling to attack the shield force field, a tremor suddenly echoed underground, as if a huge beast was swimming underground.

[Detected the movement of tunnel worms——! ]

As soon as the alarm sounded, a terrifying creature like a sandworm broke out from the ground, it opened its bloody mouth and spit out a large ball of fungal carpet and alien Zerg troops.

Relying on the method of digging a detour, the Zerg actually bypassed the shield force field directly and successfully entered the interior of the front-line base of the giant enterprise!
