The Zerg Emperor of the End of the World - Chapter 504

c504 Massacre in the air

The battle in the sky started instantly. The 100,000 flying dragons that swept in were like a black cloud, flapping their wide wings, with their thick and long tails slightly raised. Half-meter-long blade insects were spit out from them, shooting at the oncoming anti-gravity aircraft at a speed several times the speed of sound.

The harsh sound of blade insects cutting metal was not noticeable at high altitudes, but the explosions of fireballs and the fighter planes falling to the ground with thick black smoke were enough to let the pilots understand how terrifying these ten-meter-long flying dragons were. Once hit by blade insects, the weakly defended anti-gravity aircraft would be either dead or disabled. There was no place for you to make a safe forced landing in the wild.

Chirp!

Another aircraft was emitting thick smoke and descending crookedly into the sky. When it was still a thousand meters away from the ground, the power system lost control and fell from the original inclined line to a vertical line. It looked like a red and black phoenix, the red was the flame and the black was the thick smoke, approaching the ground rapidly, with an indescribable misery and desolation.

The air battle took place above the coalition forces, and the troops on the ground were naturally the coalition forces. Seeing the anti-gravity aircraft swooping down, many soldiers had a short circuit in their brains at the first moment, followed by a chaotic and hasty escape. Directly below the falling anti-gravity aircraft, the soldiers ran faster than each other, and the tanks and battle vehicles originally set up here also drove away from the original place.

However, the soldiers had too little time left. The distance of a thousand meters was fleeting for the aircraft falling from the high altitude. Before the soldiers ran a few steps away, the aircraft had already come into close contact with the ground.

Boom!

A huge fireball rose into the sky, and the fuel and ammunition carried by the aircraft became the best fuel for the fireball, making the explosion even more powerful.

Because the shock wave spread from the explosion, it immediately caused a large number of casualties. More than 20 soldiers who did not escape nearby were very pitiful. Their internal organs were dislocated, and they were bleeding from their mouths and noses and were shocked to death. As for the soldiers at the center of the explosion, they were engulfed by the fireball and burned to ashes.

A falling aircraft accidentally killed more than 30 coalition soldiers, and the rest of the soldiers who escaped by chance also changed color, because there were too many aircraft falling in the sky.

One after another, the aircraft fell like firebirds and ignited the sky. Many coalition soldiers on the ground had no choice but to dodge everywhere to avoid the aircraft that were hit and fell.

Many people have become the burial objects of these falling aircraft, and were killed by things falling from the sky for no reason. No one wants to be one of those unlucky people.

Compared with the aircraft that kept crashing, the number of dragon deaths was much less. Anyway, the soldiers on the ground rarely saw a dragon falling.

Not only were dragons stronger in individual combat, but their number was more than three times that of the coalition’s anti-gravity aircraft, allowing the dragons to use wolf pack tactics against anti-gravity aircraft. Basically, each aircraft would be targeted by several dragons, and then they would rush up and fight in a group.

In this case, the pilots were lucky to be able to save their lives, and there was no way they could fight back. Therefore, the coalition forces on the ground could hardly see the falling dragons, but only saw one after another of the aircraft being chased by dragons running around in the sky.

Those who could cause damage to the dragons were either lucky or ace pilots. Unfortunately, there were very few such aces, and without exception, they would receive more attention from the dragons. Of course, the ace pilots did not like such attention, because it meant that they would be besieged by more dragons.

Boom!

Another huge fireball rose on the ground. The culprit was half of a 20-meter-long assault reconnaissance ship, which disintegrated into two pieces in the sky and crashed to the ground. It hit a tank very “precisely”, and burned into a pile of scrap metal in the violent explosion, killing several tank soldiers.

The enemy who shot down the assault reconnaissance ship continued to be at large in the sky. It was a huge body of 100 meters, with a huge head, a ferocious beak and hanging tentacles. It looked like a flying squid covered with huge spikes and spherical bumps, but its upper body was disc-shaped, which looked very strange and cruel. This was the Zerg’s aerial fortress Corruptor, the sky overlord creature produced by the third-level mother nest.

A 30-meter-long assault reconnaissance ship is not small in the eyes of humans, but in front of a 100-meter-long, hideous-looking Corruptor with tentacles, the assault reconnaissance ship is like a child, an unarmed child, while his opponent is a tall, strong and vicious man. Just looking at the size, you can tell who is stronger.

In fact, this is exactly the case. The assault reconnaissance ship, the most powerful air weapon of the coalition, has 18 30mm caliber aircraft cannons, four 120mm energy secondary cannons, a 200mm energy main cannon, and is equipped with a missile vertical ejection launch nest. It can launch air-to-ground missiles, air-to-air missiles, and aerial flying warships that use aerial bombs to bomb the ground. Looking at the data, it seems very powerful.

But all this pales in comparison to the Corruptor. The assault reconnaissance ship, which once made the coalition proud, has become a luxury under the attack of the Zerg Corruptor. Every assault reconnaissance ship targeted by the Corruptor almost cannot escape the fate of crashing.

The coalition had a total of 3,700 assault reconnaissance ships, and under the attack of 2,100 Zerg Corruptors, the situation was one-sided.

The air-to-air missiles, energy shells, and aircraft cannons fired by the assault reconnaissance ship could not cause any harm to the Corruptor, because the Corruptor’s huge size was not for nothing. As the sky overlord of the third-level Zerg at this time, the Corruptor itself also has super strong defensive capabilities.

The bulbous protruding original brain clusters on the top and around the body of the Corruptor are a very powerful protective measure. When hit by other objects with sufficient force, these tissues will turn into foam-like substances to absorb and transfer kinetic energy. The damaged brain tissue will then be abandoned and reborn.

The Corruptor will not dodge the attacks of the assault reconnaissance ship every time it is fired, although the Corruptor has the speed and confidence to avoid these attacks, because these attacks can only blow up a bunch of foam on the Corruptor.

The huge size of 100 meters means that the assault reconnaissance ship can only injure but not kill the Corruptor. For the Corruptor, whose recovery ability is ten times stronger than that of cockroaches, being injured is not considered damage at all. It can completely recover to its previous appearance in less than a minute. Such abnormal recovery ability makes every coalition air force feel desperate.

No matter how they attacked, the Corruptor was like a sky fortress that would not fall. It flew steadily in the sky and stood firm in the attacks of various missiles, energy shells, and bombs.

The attack launched by the Corruptor made the pilots even more terrified. The Corruptor spit out a group of dark green spores from time to time, and the speed was so fast that the assault reconnaissance ship did not even have a chance to dodge, and it directly hit the ship.

After hitting the object, the spores would spread rapidly, corroding the alloy steel of the assault reconnaissance ship. All the parts that came into contact would be corroded clean, turning from steel to foam, revealing a ten-meter-sized hole.

No fighter could resist such an attack. If the anti-gravity aircraft was hit, the entire fuselage would disappear completely. The assault reconnaissance ship was basically detonated and fell in the air, and few could survive the second attack.

The Corruptors who were rampant in the sky were invincible. No matter whether it was anti-gravity aircraft, assault reconnaissance ships, or anti-aircraft guns on the ground, they could not really pose a threat to the Corruptors. The number of Corruptors shot down was very small. With the large number of flexible and maneuverable dragons, the Zerg Air Force gradually began to control the sky and beat up the Allied Air Force. The continuous falling of aircraft and assault reconnaissance ships was the best proof.

The Nest Lords could finally output with confidence and boldness. With the dual protection of Corruptors and dragons, they could use the highest firing rate to shoot live shells into the Allied Forces, creating bloody mechanical quagmires on the ground.

A large number of artillery and tanks were blown into scattered parts. It was useless for the soldiers to hide in the trench bunkers. The power of live shells could not be resisted by a mere bunker. Even reinforced concrete bunkers several meters thick would be blown into ruins by live shells. What was the use of a few temporary trenches?

Whoosh! A live shell spun at high speed and finally landed on a small hillside. In the violent explosion, the small hillside dozens of meters high collapsed by half, and the rising dust drifted far away.

In the trench bunkers farther away from the small hillside, a large number of soldiers were completely buried in the mud. When they struggled out, they had become mud men. Some unlucky soldiers were crushed to death by the ejected boulders, and some were injured in their internal organs, with blood coming out of their mouths and noses. Fortunately, the live shell was far away from them, otherwise they would not be injured by the shock, but would be killed by the displacement of internal organs and heavy bleeding.

However, the heavy machine gun position on the small earth slope did not have such a good end. The small earth slope was originally a strategic location with good sight. The coalition forces arranged twelve heavy machine guns and many light machine guns here. Once the battle started, it would undoubtedly play a great role and use the height advantage to attack the enemy with dense rain of bullets.

But now all this has become empty talk. Even the small earthen slope has been blown down for the most part. The fate of the heavy machine gun position can be imagined. All the heavy machine guns and light machine guns have flown to some corner. The more than 100 soldiers serving the heavy machine guns and responsible for logistics have either been blown into incomplete bodies or been submerged and crushed to death by the small earthen slope. In short, you can’t find a single living person.

There are countless such examples. The Nest Lords are not blindly bombing, but give priority to attacking those chariots, artillery, machine guns and other hot weapons that pose a greater threat, further destroying the effective defense force of the coalition forces.

The reason why the Nest Lords can find many hidden firepower points is inseparable from the role of the eyeworms hidden at an altitude of 15,000 meters. It is also under the precise reconnaissance and command and control of the eyeworms that the Nest Lords can quickly find the distribution of the coalition forces’ firepower, knock out those powerful nails one by one, and make the living artillery shells a nightmare for the coalition forces.

It was very frustrating to be beaten without being able to fight back, but the coalition forces could not think of a way to deal with it. The Zerg Lords were attacking from dozens of kilometers away, and the anti-aircraft guns could only stare blankly at this distance. The ground-to-air missiles were often shot down by flying dragons halfway.

The only air force that could be relied on now had problems protecting itself. They were beaten by the Zerg Air Force and fled in panic. How could they have the spare energy to break through the heavy defense lines and attack the Zerg Lords who were guarded in the innermost part? So the coalition forces could only wait dumbfounded to be bombed.

In fact, the soldiers were not stupid. It happened that the Zerg ground forces had not arrived yet, so the army quickly made the best solution, hiding!

If I can’t hit it, I won’t hide!

So the coalition forces made full use of the ground-drilling spirit of marmots, hiding in trenches, holes, woods, ditches, cracks in rocks and other places where people could hide. Looking around, the coalition positions were quiet, and there was no other sound except the bombardment of live artillery shells. Some places where soldiers were originally arranged for defense were completely deserted, and the soldiers didn’t know where to escape to avoid the bombardment of the nest worm lords.

The coalition forces were originally composed of troops from multiple bases, and the command system could not be sounded in a short period of time. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a ragtag army. A group of loose sand can be used to describe the coalition forces at this time. The coalition forces in a hurry did not have the qualities of a strong army at all, and they were not good at cooperation and coordination.

Many soldiers from large and medium-sized bases were unwilling to come to Ludong Province. They were forced to go out by the four super bases such as Xin Jiujiang. Now they have come to the battlefield, but they have not seen the benefits promised at the beginning. They are bombed and cannot fight back. Needless to say, their morale is low. The emotions in their hearts can overturn the sky. They are giving face to the coalition forces by not giving up on the spot.

However, the things that make the coalition forces feel depressed have not ended. In addition to facing the bombing of the coalition forces, they also have to face the damage caused by their own air force.

You must know that these are more than 30,000 anti-gravity aircraft and 3,000 assault reconnaissance ships. In the eyes of the army, these are actually more than 30,000 super explosive packs that can fall on their heads at any time.

Many coalition ground troops looked at the large metal birds flying around in the sky, and they all cursed in their hearts. Damn, the Air Force, these big men are more proud than each other, and they want to raise their eyes to the sky to look at people. They are more ruthless than anyone else in grabbing military funds, and they have withdrawn a large amount of development funds from the army. In the end, they have developed into this?

Each of them has become a fledgling that can only run away. There is no trace of the eagle in the sky. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are dogs that have lost their homes.

Those precious aerial weapons that were once expensive, one aircraft could arm a company, and one assault reconnaissance ship could arm half a regiment. The expensive army could only drool over them. Now they are just torches burning in the sky, like brilliant fireworks, blooming beautifully, and falling quickly at the same time.

Not to mention the fall, the Air Force also pitted the Army before dying. The number of soldiers “smashed to death” by the falling aircraft is definitely not small. The missiles and bombs carried by those aircraft were not used on the enemy, but they fell to the ground and exploded to exert the maximum power. The 7 million coalition troops were relatively densely stationed on this land, and the hit rate was much higher. I don’t know how many soldiers could not escape in time, and died in vain at the hands of the Air Force.

The Army’s thoughts of cursing came one after another. When you were alive, you Air Force were arrogant and disdainful of others. After you die, there are people to bury you. What the hell is this reason? I won’t play with you anymore.
