I Am the Swarm

After intensive research by the think tanks of the coalition forces, it was finally decided to give priority to attacking the ancient Zerg class, because even if they were close to each other, these larger ancient classes would be more destructive.

As for those small space octopuses, the coalition forces temporarily released drone formations to block them.

It's just that after the war was mobilized, the space factories built were all warship assembly lines, and metal smelting was also a priority for manufacturing warships. The production line of drones has not increased much, and there is a shortage of materials. Therefore, in today's coalition fleet, the number of drones has not reached full strength, and some warships even have only a dozen drones.

It's just that because of the large base of warships, the sight of densely packed drones lining up to fight in neat formations is still very spectacular, but the total number is still several orders of magnitude lower than that of adults and larvae.

There is no sun or moon in the void. After several days of fierce fighting, the swarm relied on their numerical superiority to divide the battlefield and then penetrated the entire coalition defense line, breaking into the orbit of the planet of life that was being guarded.

Some adults opened their storage capsules, and sent a large number of cysts to the living planet from the close orbit. The cysts are covered with multiple layers of carapace, which can help them insulate the outside, such as high temperature and other special environments,

And the carapace is supported by cartilage, which can play a good cushioning effect when subjected to strong impacts.

Under the carapace is the cystic tissue with the creep gene as the template. The tissue is not only covered with fibrous structures, but also increases the toughness of the cyst. Moreover, there are small airbags between them to further reduce the damage suffered during impact.

There is a space of about 3-5 square meters inside the cyst, which can carry some creep seeds, queen larvae and some land combat units. They are the latest generation of air-dropped cysts after several improvements, and it is these things that adults drop.

A large number of cysts pass through the atmosphere in the form of free fall, and the flames generated by friction, coupled with their large number, make it look like watching a spectacular meteor shower from the ground. Some Mo Tuo people who don't know the truth even closed their eyes and made a wish.

But immediately they noticed something was wrong, these "shooting stars" were more and more, boundless, and even illuminated half of the sky.

Although the Motuo defenders on the Life Star didn't know what these things were, they knew that a big battle was taking place above the dome, and they had already communicated with the coalition forces and learned that these things were not done by the coalition forces.

Since it is not the coalition forces, the owners of these things can be imagined. Even if Mo Tuo defenders think with their toes, they can guess these beautiful "shooting stars", which are definitely not good things.

The Meto defenders opened fire, and all kinds of anti-aircraft weapons began to pour out their firepower. They even pushed out the old-fashioned gunpowder kinetic energy anti-aircraft guns.

But these "meteors" are not dead objects. They can use the air bags in their bodies to change their falling trajectory, and even slightly change their falling speed. Moreover, they are small in size and fast in speed, which makes Moto's defenders have unsatisfactory results in anti-aircraft weapons except for various locking weapons.

The "Meteor" is still falling, and near the city on the Life Star, the anti-aircraft firepower is strong, annihilating most of the "Meteor" towards them. However, it is impossible for the Moto tribe to deploy defenses on the entire planet indiscriminately. In those suburban areas, the number of anti-aircraft weapons is relatively small, and the firepower is relatively poor.

The Zerg sensed this right away, and started throwing more cysts at these areas.

finally……

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

The roaring sound continued, and the super-high speed caused the cysts to smash hard on the ground. But its special, multiple anti-shock structure allowed it to reduce most of the damage, and some of them were even bounced off, bouncing on the ground and under the tree before slowly stopping.

The dry mountain forest was ignited by the high temperature, and the cysts split from it in the flames.

Some of them popped out a few land combat units, and some of them crawled out with the creep seeds and queen cubs on their backs. Some crawled out of insect-shaped units with large digging feet, which looked like good burrowers, while others simply drilled out a tunnel worm larva.

After a simple investigation of the dangers, various excavation units excavated on the spot, and the worker bees sneaked into the ground with the queen and planted the creeper. The sporangia are also broken down and serve as the first round of food.

During this period, other marine units scattered and patrolled outwards to resolve various uncertain risks and collect intelligence.

Although the anti-aircraft fire around the cities of the Motu tribe was fierce, some lucky cysts passed through the artillery lines and fell near the cities.

Not only were these guys more apprehensive during the fall, but they were also far inferior to their companions in the mountains and suburbs after the fall. The environment they live in is even worse. After all, it is only by racing against time to hide themselves.

The traditional skill of digging holes has become the best choice, which is why more than half of the ground troops launched in this round can dig holes.

Those who can't dig holes will rush into the Meto tribe crowd, causing chaos to cover their companions.

Soon, in less than half a minute, except for those combat arms that were still causing chaos, the rest of the bugs had disappeared on the surface. Even if the Mo Tuo soldiers came here, they could only look at the excavation marks on the ground and curse.

Although the coalition forces in space saw the movement of the swarm, they were unable to stop it. When they tried their best to re-block the gap, the swarm had already dropped several rounds of airdrops.

"Sir, there is a message from the ground forces."

"How? Did they find out what the Zerg threw down?"

"Sir, the ground troops said that through optical instruments, they found that what the Zerg dropped should be some kind of airdrop landing device. The ground troops went to the scene to check and found some Zerg units, but not many."

After speaking, the correspondent opened several pictures and videos that were transmitted synchronously. On the screen, the Mo Tuo soldiers were fighting some spider-like bugs and small beasts. Although these Zerg units were very ferocious, they were eventually wiped out one by one by soldiers with advanced weapons because of their small number.

"Is there any research report on these monsters?"

"No, although they are not strong, the Zerg still have genetic locks on them..."

"Damn it, tell the ground troops to be careful that the Zerg can't do meaningless things." The Zerg threw so many things down with great effort, but they were killed without even making a sound.

Although it was the first time for the coalition commander at LKDW262 to fight against the Zerg, he also knew that the Zerg could not be such idiots. This thing is full of weirdness, it's better to be careful.

The fierce battle in space was not affected by the ground, and the two sides fought in full swing. From time to time, warships or Taikoo-class battleships that had been prepared were withdrawn from the battlefield for repairs to replenish losses.

More than ten days later, just as the coalition commander guessed, the Zerg did not do anything useless. A large number of Zerg units appeared from nowhere on the Life Star and attacked the coalition ground forces.
