Xia Chujian said casually, "This was made for me by Master Su. I don't know what the material is. You can ask him."
Kang Shanxing thought deeply and said, "I guess so. This kind of material might be very effective against the Zerg army."
Xia Chujian glanced at him and asked, "How much do you know about the Zerg army?"
Kang Shanxing is the highest-ranking officer of the Special Security Bureau's Intelligence Department, so he must know a lot of intelligence.
He just frowned and said, "Not much, I just know that their shells are extremely hard, comparable to our regular mechas, and they have very strong defenses."
"Ordinary bullets are completely ineffective. High-energy electromagnetic beam bombs or laser weapons with strong focusing capabilities are needed."
"But these weapons are space weapons. Their performance can only be fully utilized in space."
"On the surface of a planet within the atmosphere, their power is only one tenth of what it is."
"Because these weapons are best used in a vacuum environment."
"There's so much gas and dust on the planet's surface that their power is greatly reduced."
"In this way, every time we kill a Zerg soldier, we consume a lot of energy."
"Fighting a battle, even if it's a bitter victory, will still consume a huge amount of energy."
"If we continue fighting like this, even if all the energy resources of our entire galaxy were added together, I'm afraid it wouldn't be enough."
Xia Chujian frowned and said, "You mean, if we keep fighting like this, even if it's a one-for-one fight at the limit, we'll still lose in the end?"
"Then can we use those high-energy explosive packs? Just one dropped into a Zerg nest would kill countless Zerg soldiers, right?"
Kang Shanxing shook his head. "We've tried everything. These Zerg soldiers are fearless. If you throw a bomb at them, they can completely cover it with a giant Zerg... or even swallow it directly."
"Even if it explodes, it will only kill one Zerg soldier, and the others will just be affected."
Xia Chujian's eyes widened: "...No way?! This is so outrageous?!"
Kang Shanxing sighed deeply, "I don't want to boost others' ambitions and destroy my own prestige."
"But it is true."
"Ordinary bullets and swords are simply incapable of breaking through the Zerg army's defenses."
"And weapons that can penetrate their defenses and cause harm are not suitable for the environment they are used in, so their performance is greatly reduced, making the cost too high."
"Kill one thousand enemies and spend ten thousand of your own money. It's impossible to sustain the killing."
"Also, the Zerg's reproductive capacity far exceeds that of the human race."
"It takes us humans eighteen years from birth to adulthood, and according to ancient customs, fifteen years as well."
"But the Zerg only need one year."
"To be honest, the remaining five billion people in the Southern Cross, from eight to eighty years old, are all soldiers."
"But it's only been over a month, and they've already lost a billion people and injured two billion..."
Xia Chujian couldn't help but twitch his eyes: "The casualty rate is so high?!"
Kang Shanxing said: "Not only has our casualty rate increased, but our losses are also the Zerg's gains."
"Because they can gain more food, manpower, and breeding carriers from our losses."
"Then their insect population will increase even faster."
"Our scientists speculate that after the Zerg use our human bodies to reproduce for a few more generations, they will be able to evolve into a Zerg species that can reproduce on their own... the Zerg Queen."
"When the Worm Queen is born, it will truly be the end of mankind!"
Xia Chujian was truly shocked: "No way? Director Kang, are you exaggerating too much?!"
"...It's the end of humanity... Our Beichen Empire's elite troops haven't joined the battle yet, right?!"
She hasn't even gone to the battlefield yet!
Kang Shanxing smiled bitterly and said, "Why would I exaggerate this? Would scaring you be of any use?"
"Xia Chujian, you sometimes think too highly of yourself."
Xia Chujian was not angry at all. She nodded and said, "Director Kang is right. Sometimes I really think too highly of myself."
"But I still think it's a bit too depressing to talk about the end of humanity before the actual fighting even begins..."
Kang Shanxing shook his head and said, "Okay, I was just being nosy."
"Actually, no matter what, it has nothing to do with you now."
"You should go back to school and study hard, and don't worry about home."
"We will help you guard your home."
Xia Chujian looked at the living room of her house.
Every brick, every blade of grass, and every tree here were built with great effort by her and her family.
Although she didn't contribute directly, she did contribute money.
It's like she's directly contributing.
Xia Chujian is a person who would rather work than spend money.
The fact that she can spend so much money to buy land and build a house shows how much she cherishes this place.
Xia Chujian said, "I will go back to school, but you have to upgrade your defense measures against my family."
Kang Shanxing said, "How do we upgrade? How about sending a battalion to live in your house?"
Xia Chujian waved his hands and said, "No need for that! As long as you agree to double the area covered by my air defense system, I think it will be much safer."
Kang Shanxing thought about it and said, "This request is not impossible."
"You probably don't know, but the two plots of land next to yours have been sold recently. A top family in the empire is planning to build a manor here."
"The air defense level here will be greatly improved. By then, the enemy will definitely have to install an air defense system, and the coverage area will probably not be limited to the ground area of the manor."
