Chapter 177: The Disaster of the New Capital



The swarm of insects spread all over Lingyuan Star.

The western urban cluster of the third continent was devastated by the ravages of the alien insects.

The former Sunset Bay has become a ruin, becoming the true "sunset" of the gods.

A small piece of desert between Sunset Bay and Xindu became the main battlefield between Ari Company's troops and the Zerg.

To the west of the desert, thousands of alien insects surged out from the bottom of the sea. Their density was enough to make people stunned. From a distance, all you could see were alien insects, and you couldn't see the color of the earth at all.

Before them lay a fleet of hundreds of mechas, along with fighter jets and small combat craft circling low above. These massive mechas, controlled by humans, formed a steel wall with laser weapons and missiles, forming the city's first line of defense.

The Zerg swarm was too close to the urban areas of the Third Continent. Limited by the power of large-scale weapons, and to ensure the safety of the city and its citizens, the Yari Company could only use troops suitable for close combat to eliminate the disgusting Zerg.

Following the mechas, fighter jets and spaceships are batches of "Flying Dragon" attack helicopters, "Earth Dragon" main battle tanks and armored vehicles loaded with various artillery weapons. They are the second line of defense to protect the city.

They are the main force of this war, because the role of mechas and fighter planes is more to contain the "big guys" in the Zerg swarm, and the remaining massive alien insects are their opponents.

Behind the helicopters and tanks stood the infantry of Yari Corporation. These uniformed warriors, armed with the latest pulse rifles, electric grenades, and handheld howitzers, formed a densely packed human wall. They were the third line of defense, responsible for dealing with any lucky escapees from the missile and artillery fire.

Behind the infantry troops, a wall made of lasers rose up on the outskirts of the new capital. It was a trump card of the Yari Company and the last line of defense of the city. Its scientific name was "High-Power Magic Beam Defense Array".

This is a laser weapon powered by magic stone energy. It sounds complicated, but its structure is actually very simple:

The flying robots hovering high in the sky projected this high-intensity magic laser vertically to the ground, forming a beam of light that was strong enough to burn everything. A large number of similar robots were arranged horizontally on the same horizontal line in the sky, forming a wall of light outside the city.

From the outside, the entire city looked like it was trapped in a laser prison.

Outside the prison, gunfire rang out and insects chirped.

Gigantic steel warriors grappled with the behemoths amidst an endless sea of ​​insects. Circling fighters launched a barrage of missiles beneath the clouds. Several missiles exploded amidst the insect swarm, a series of bursts of fire erupting. Amidst the thick smoke, the broken limbs of the aliens, swirling in the air with a sickening, dark green blood.

These insects weren't just good at close combat and biting. For example, the spider swarms Chu Yao had seen before could spit out venom that could corrode even the outer shell of a mecha.

A mech warrior encountered this fate. After dodging the maw of the giant centipede, he was pounced upon by dozens of smaller flying centipedes. Before he could escape, a swarm of spiders on the ground simultaneously spewed acid. Black smoke billowed from the acid's corroding body, and his massive body was instantly crushed by the countless fangs of the alien insects.

Before he died, he activated the mecha's self-destruct device, turning into a ball of flame and perishing together with the alien insects around him.

With the mechas and warships holding them back, the behemoths were temporarily stopped, but the trouble continued.

Fighter planes and tanks raced across the sky, firing relentlessly. Vast swarms of insects vanished amidst deafening explosions, leaving the landscape practically dyed green. Yet their numbers persisted, and the infantry on the third line of defense quickly engaged those "escaped insects," even engaging in hand-to-hand combat.

Outside the wall of light, swarms of insects were like tides, and spears were like rain; on the earth, wailing was everywhere, and blood flowed like a river.

These bugs have no brains and only know how to rush forward recklessly. They are no match for pulse rifles and electric grenades when fighting alone.

But there are so many of them! So many!

Ari Company's troops were able to block most of the Zerg, but trying to keep them all outside the wall of light was still an almost impossible task.

Some alien insects have already passed through the infantry troops and arrived under the light wall of Xindu, constantly attacking with their flesh and blood. The smell of burning is carried away by the wind, and green patches form lines outside the light wall. That is their blood.

The battle situation outside the wall of light is tense, and the situation inside the wall of light is not optimistic either.

Residents living on the outskirts of the city fled inward with their families like crazy. The streets were crowded with people who wanted to escape, and their target was Liberty City.

There is another "Wall of Light" in Free City, located in the center of the third continent. If the new capital is lost, it will be the last line of defense.

The roads, elevated roads, and even the expressways were crowded with all kinds of vehicles, all stuck together and crawling forward at a snail's pace. The traffic control department of Yali Company had tried its best to ease the traffic, but it still didn't work. Sports cars and pedestrians were crowded together in a noisy manner, and the high-rise buildings that Xindu people were proud of became walls preventing them from leaving.

Finally, a scream became the last straw that broke the camel's back for the citizens.

Under the deadly attack of the swarm of insects, one or two finally squeezed out from the wall of light, and heart-wrenching howls came from their ferocious mouths.

"Bugs, bugs are coming in, run!"

"Run, run, we are all going to die!"

Continuous screams and shouts rang out in the crowd like falling dominoes. These screams triggered a huge butterfly effect. Everyone rushed forward desperately, seeking a glimmer of hope in the crowded city.
