Chapter 2210: The Insect Race Arrives
"Open the door! Open the door! There are bugs outside!"
"Help! There are bugs!"
On the streets, people who had been marching earlier were now fleeing in panic.
Some people rushed to the nearest shelter.
But the doors to these shelters have long been closed.
The sign above indicates that the shelter is full. Please go to the nearest shelter.
No matter how much people outside pleaded and pounded on the door, it would not open.
"Ahhh!"
People are already getting injured on the streets because of the Zerg.
"No...don't...don't come any closer!" said a young man with a white cloth tied around his head, on which slogans were written.
Looking at the mantis-like insect monster in front of them, it was more than three meters tall.
Half of its body was stuffed into its mouth.
Those were the bodies of his friends who had marched with him.
Just minutes before, they were throwing Molotov cocktails and singing together.
Now, he has become food for the Zerg.
The man wanted to escape, but his legs were trembling.
Watching the mantis monster about to swing its scythe.
The man closed his eyes in despair.
He wished it were all a dream.
He wished he had followed orders obediently before, and he would probably be in a shelter by now.
But he no longer has the chance to regret it.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw the other half of his body; he had been cut in half at the waist.
From that moment on, no one in the Dragon Star world questioned the credibility of the Dragon Kingdom's invasion of the Zerg.
Because these insects are now right in front of them.
In some shelters with internet access.
Many people gathered in front of the television, watching the news reports about the city.
"This is a war correspondent from the Nancy Empire."
We are now in the capital city of the Nancy Empire.
We can see many meteorite-like objects appearing in the sky.
But these things are actually Zerg.
They vary in appearance, but all have very obvious insect characteristics.
Some resemble mantises, some resemble cockroaches, and some resemble spiders.
But they are hundreds or thousands of times larger than ordinary insects.
We can see that the defense system inside the royal city is operating at full power, destroying those 'meteorites' in the sky.
However, many insects still landed on the streets.
Next, our soldiers will be deployed to clear the insects from the streets.
People in the shelters can rest assured.
Thanks to the efforts of the Dragon Kingdom, the Dragon Star Alliance, and our Nancy Empire.
We will definitely wipe out these Zerg invaders who have invaded our homeland, and you will soon be able to return to the surface.
In the picture.
The Nancy Empire's army can already be seen entering the city.
There are tanks and an army.
The tanks aimed at the giant insect-like creatures and opened fire.
When the shells hit these large insects, they instantly blasted them into pieces.
When insects swarm in, the soldiers use machine guns, flamethrowers, and other weapons to eliminate them one by one.
When they saw that human weapons could still be effective against these insects.
The people in the shelters have all gained hope.
At least, these insects are not invincible.
But soon.
A huge burning spaceship appeared in the sky.
Upon closer inspection, it was clearly a Zerg hive resembling one from a literary work.
The Zerg hive was subjected to a barrage of bombardments, but it still managed to enter Dragon Star's near-Earth orbit and dive towards the ground.
After the Zerg mothership crashed heavily into the ground, a large number of Zerg combat units poured out from its wrecked body.
Fortunately, the Zerg mothership crashed not in any city, but in the wilderness.
Otherwise, it would pose a devastating threat to the city.
Dragon Kingdom - Command Center
"The location of a Zerg mothership that crashed has been determined."
"Orders have been issued to the nearest combat troops!" Marshal Chu Xuan marked a location on the map in front of him.
The threat posed by the Zerg mothership is enormous.
The Zerg mothership contains many Zerg eggs that may not have hatched yet.
Therefore, the Zerg mothership must be destroyed in the shortest possible time.
This was a plan they had devised before the disaster struck.
But as luck would have it...
Not far from this Zerg mothership lies a vast ocean.
There is a JF-17 carrier battle group in the middle of the ocean.
A squadron of fighter jets and bombers immediately took off.
At the same time, countless missiles were launched, all targeting the crashed Zerg mothership.
at the same time.
In the cities surrounding the Zerg mothership, higher-level alerts were sounded.
The soldiers stationed in these cities have all entered their defensive fortifications to prepare for the upcoming insect swarm.
The earth began to tremble.
This is a city on the border of the Nancy Empire.
Cities have walls.
The walls are equipped with anti-aircraft guns and machine gun emplacements.
A commander held binoculars, gazing at the distant forest.
He witnessed firsthand which direction the Zerg mothership crashed in, and the city he was stationed in was the closest city to that Zerg mothership.
And they also received instructions.
Their city is highly likely to be among the first to suffer a wave of Zerg attacks.
"Everyone, give it your all."
It's just a group of larger insects.
Look at the weapons in our hands.
As long as you hit accurately and hit a lot.
"We can easily wipe out these insects too!" the commander roared.
This roused the spirits of the soldiers who were somewhat afraid and nervous.
Just then.
Trees in the surrounding forests began to fall in large swaths.
A dark mass of insects appeared in their field of vision.
These insects swept in like a black tide, and several enormous figures could be seen among them.
That's the T1 Thunder Beast they already know about!
"Fire!" the commander immediately ordered.
On the city walls, all kinds of weapons were unleashed at this moment.
Bullets, rocket launchers, flames, grenades, bombs, artillery shells.
All kinds of weapons were brought out.
Many of the insects that charged at the front were blown to bits.
However, there were simply too many of these insects, and they were getting closer and closer to the city wall.
Within ten minutes, the insects had crawled to the foot of the city wall and began to swarm up it.
They sprayed corrosive liquid at the city wall.
The enormous, mountain-like small thunder beasts then rammed into the city walls.
Feel the earth shaking as the city walls trembled.
The soldiers stationed here all felt a sense of despair.
Is this the despair of fighting the Zerg?
They thought they had seen many works of this kind and played many games of this kind.
But when they actually faced it, they realized how terrifying the swarm of insects was.
Just then.
Bombers flew overhead, dropping incendiary bombs on the ground.
The area outside the city walls was set ablaze, turning it into a sea of fire.
Many fighter jets swooped down and strafed the insects lying at the foot of the city wall.
This round of support greatly relieved the pressure on the city walls.
But those stationed here know that this kind of support is only temporary.
"Remember our mission."
Behind us are our homes and loved ones.
Once we lose this place.
Our city will be invaded by these damned bugs, and our families will be harmed by them!
"Remember, we will live and die with this line of defense!" The commander fired his machine gun at the insects below.
"To live or die together!" the other soldiers roared in unison.
This situation has also occurred on other battlefields.
The Zerg invasion lasted six hours.
Dragon Kingdom Command Center
"So far, of the three hundred T1 insect hive motherships, we have destroyed one hundred and fifty."
We have three satellite fortresses.
Number One has lost contact, while Number Two and Number Three are still in contact, but their situations are not good either.
More than 50% of our second line of defense has been destroyed.
On the ground.
Insects have begun falling to the ground on all four continents.
More than 123 cities were affected.
We have less than 30% of our nuclear arsenal in space and less than 40% of our long-range missiles remaining.
...The staff officer reported these figures one by one.
As the supreme commander, Chu Xuan was under immense psychological pressure at this moment.
In just six hours of fighting.
They have used up the vast majority of their top-tier weaponry stockpile.
If this continues, they will be left with only the most basic weapons to fight.
"No matter what, the first priority is to destroy all those Zerg motherships!"
If those Zerg motherships were still around.
They can then continuously produce Zerg combat units.
One hundred and fifty ships remain...
Relay my orders.
At all costs, within the next eighteen hours.
"We must destroy all the Zerg motherships!" Marshal Chu Xuan said resolutely.
"yes!"
Behind Marshal Chu Xuan was King Zhao Chen of the Xiaolong Kingdom, who had remained silent throughout.
He watched the situation on the battlefield in silence.
He knew very well what Marshal Chu Xuan's final order meant.
If we lose weapons such as missiles and nuclear bombs.
The only way to destroy those Zerg motherships is...
It's a suicide attack!
This is also part of the Bug Project.
High-speed fighter jets, all of which have been modified, have long been stored in underground hangars around the world.
Apart from a high-explosive bomb, there were no other weapons.
Their sole mission upon taking off is to hurtle toward their target!
To use oneself as the last shell fired at the enemy.
This was a step Zhao Chen didn't want to see.
But this is also the only way they can protect the planet.
Zhao Chen looked at the map of Longxing, where the locations of battles had been marked.
Even on the land of the Dragonflight Kingdom, Zerg combat units have been found to have crashed here.
However, because the residents here had been evacuated to underground shelters early on, there were almost no reports of civilian casualties.
In the city streets, the well-trained JF-17 Army units annihilated and destroyed the Zerg combat units one by one.
An underground shelter somewhere in the Dragon King City.
Princess Polly is holding a group of her younger brothers and sisters.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
We are all here.
Everyone is safe.
A younger sister said timidly, "Sister, those bugs will come here and eat us."
Princess Polly looked at her sister and smiled reassuringly, saying, "Don't worry."
Above us, there are JF-17 soldiers fighting.
They will wipe out all those bad bugs.
We'll be back on the ground soon.
Although Princess Polly said that, she was actually worried and afraid inside.
In order to take care of her younger siblings, she was actually the last to enter the shelter.
She also witnessed a large, fleshy ball that had fallen into the street; it was a meteorite.
When this large fleshy ball opened up, you could see the worms inside.
Although the shelter doors were closed in time, gunfire erupted outside.
But the ugly and ferocious appearance of those insects is still vivid in her mind.
"Hello.
These are your lunchboxes.
After you finish eating, please put your lunchboxes in the metal bins outside.
"Thank you." The staff member pushed the food cart out and distributed the heated lunch boxes according to the number in front of them.
Princess Polly took the lunchboxes and distributed them to the children.
They have been here for more than six hours.
This is their first meal here.
She had heard that each shelter was stocked with plenty of food, including fresh food and compressed biscuits that could be stored for a long time.
This food supply is enough to sustain people in a shelter for a year.
"Everyone must be hungry."
Let's eat first.
After dinner, everyone should get some rest.
Perhaps, I should take a nap.
"Then nothing bad will happen," Princess Polly said with a smile.
The children obediently took the lunchboxes.
It contains steaming hot rice, as well as three dishes and a soup.
I must say, this first meal was quite delicious.
This may also be to appease the emotions of these refugees.
Although they had known for a long time that a Zerg crisis would occur and were mentally prepared.
But being mentally prepared is one thing, and actually doing it is another.
Many people are now panicked and look worried.
And at this moment, if a delicious meal were placed in front of you...
Peace is undoubtedly the best way to soothe emotions.
Time passed little by little.
The lights inside the shelter gradually dimmed.
Although you can't see the sun here.
However, the lighting inside the shelter is set according to the outside time.
So by this time, it must be night outside.
Some children were already asleep on the made-up beds.
Princess Polly tucked each of the children in with a blanket.
She leaned against the corner of the wall, and only then could the smile on her face fade slightly, revealing the weariness she had been hiding.
She is now starting to worry about her relatives who are still in power, as they hold positions in the Kingdom of the Wraith and need to step forward at this time.
Therefore, they will not evacuate to the shelter.
At this moment, Princess Polly could only pray silently for her brothers and sisters.
And there are also my father, mother, and aunts who live far away in Haikui Town.
I hope they are all safe and sound, and that nothing bad has happened to them.
I also hope that this disaster will be over soon.
