Because according to the technological level of the mechanical race and the other civilization, considering the distance between this mechanical race and the mechanical cruiser in the city center, there should not be any delay in the signal sent by the cruiser to control the mechanical body.
The source of this situation is that the three-component planetary communication blocking device was activated by him shortly after the battle began, blocking the communication signals inside and outside the entire planet.
Although Chen Ming felt that the effect was not ideal at the time, external support from the Mechanical Clan still arrived just as quickly.
And those orbital defense satellites that should have been effective were destroyed because he attacked them too quickly, so even if they blocked the signals on the planet, there was no follow-up effect.
However, Chen Ming thought from the beginning that it was better to do it than not to do it, so he didn't care at all even though it had no practical use before.
But he really didn't expect that the equipment he had casually arranged, which he had even over-arranged, would actually play a role at such a critical moment.
After making this clear, Chen Ming did not hesitate.
Immediately, the three connected devices were remotely controlled to adjust their respective frequencies and slightly change their positions in orbit.
All the power of the equipment originally used to block the communication signals inside and outside the entire planet was used in the city of the Mechanical Clan, acting on the location where the Zerg and the Mechanical Clan were fighting.
The signal sent by the mechanical cruiser was completely disrupted, and the communication signals of all frequency bands in the entire city were completely cut off.
For a short period of time, all signals on the entire planet except Chen Ming will be silent.
And that special machine became paralyzed after it executed the last command it received.
Without the support of this special mechanical race, the remaining mechanical races had no ability to resist the Zerg, whose total number had not yet decreased significantly.
They were easily defeated by the Zerg.
The Queen of Zerg once again wantonly splashed the blood of fungi and Zerg, relying on the effects of these special substances to continuously lower the temperature on the battlefield.
At the same time, he was also trying to lower the temperature of that special mechanical body.
In just a few minutes, the surrounding environment changed from the orange-red color just now to the pure white at the beginning.
The molten metal liquid beneath the dozen or so almost connected giant pits blasted by that special mechanical body was almost solidified.
At this time, countless Zerg insects had completely surrounded the special mechanical body that was paralyzed in place in three circles inside and three circles outside.
The bugs that had already bypassed began to destroy the few defensive weapons on the cruiser in the center of the city.
The moment when all the external security weapons of the mechanical cruiser were destroyed.
The temperature of this special mechanical body outside finally dropped to a level acceptable to the Zerg.
The Queen immediately released those parasites at the special mechanical race, allowing the nerves of the fungi and parasites to completely control this mechanical race.
Although unlike other mechas controlled by parasites, the parasite on this particular mecha cannot use its abilities excessively.
But the performance of this mechanical machine just now has left a deep impression on Chen Ming.
Chen Ming felt that this mechanical machine seemed to be an elite individual among the mechanical ground units, similar to HR.
After all, it is just a mechanical body with a length of more than 40 meters, about the same size as two small frigates stacked together.
The difference between them and other mechanical races is not that big, but their actual combat capabilities are exaggerated to the extreme.
The weapons mounted on its back can almost achieve the effect achieved by the large weapons installed on cruisers two levels higher.
Not only that, this mechanical family also has the ability to change the environment, which means it must have special technology.
Moreover, the powerful individual combat capability of this mechanical clan also reminded Chen Ming of Yan Xiong.
Yan Xiong can directly enter space in his physical body, and condense a steel giant with the help of the wreckage of a cruiser, giving him the ability to fight against a cruiser fleet alone.
If Chen Ming hadn't taken advantage of his unpreparedness and sent a wave of cruisers to jump and concentrate fire on him, forcing him to expose himself.
Then he took advantage of Yan Xiong's arrogance to feed him some spaceship wreckage, and added the logistical supplies from several Yuhui colonies to replenish the explosives.
Otherwise it would definitely not be that easy to fight.
Chen Ming only blew Yan Xiong half to death. If Chen Ming had not controlled the spaceship to check, Yan Xiong might have been resurrected with full health in a few hours.
If Yan Xiong were to face off against a city of mechanical people with his abilities, the entire city would probably be like clay in the hands of a child, at his mercy.
This is the peak of individual combat effectiveness.
When fighting against the Zerg, this special mechanical race was able to use a single mechanical body to influence the entire environment around it and was able to take on the entire Zerg nest without being at a disadvantage.
It really made Chen Ming feel a little bit like Yan Xiong back then.
So at this time, Chen Ming not only arranged to transport the machine as soon as possible, but also figured out what its working principle was.
He was still considering whether it was necessary for him to let the Queen of Insects try to create some elite combat individuals.
It is similar to Yan Xiong, this mechanical body, or the large black Zerg that Chen Ming had seen in the Zerg's genes during genetic tracing. It was hunted by the Zerg. Its combat effectiveness seemed very good.
Although their final endings are similar, and not very good.
Yan Xiong was rolled into a ball by Chen Ming and used as an alloy furnace. The special mechanical body was just kidnapped by Chen Ming.
That dark Zerg ended up in the stomachs of the Thorn Zerg and has become a part of their genes today.
But their performance is indeed impressive and worth studying.
Chen Ming thought he could give it a try.
But not now, he has things to do now.
The ground battle was won the moment Chen Ming discovered the weakness of the special mechanical race.
There were only a few scattered mechanical tribes left on the ground, who were putting up a desperate resistance and were completely unable to organize themselves.
However, the third batch of mechanical reinforcements is definitely on the way. Although it will take some time for them to arrive, it will definitely not take too long.
Chen Ming needs to speed up the cleanup of the mechanical clan and complete the final finishing work.
At the same time, he packed up his spoils and retreated as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, he would definitely be killed by the reinforcements of the mechanical clan who would arrive in an endless stream.
Chen Ming didn't want to experience the situation where that special mechanical body was constantly attacked by Zerg.
But at this time, another unexpected thing happened to Chen Ming.
Those mechanical tribes who were still resisting suddenly gave up the defense of the city and chose to retreat.
Left the city from the other side opposite to the Zerg attack direction.
Under the further pressure and attack of the Zerg when the Mechanicals were retreating, those Mechanicals who were unable to escape the city and fought desperately also began to be defeated.
The mechanical race seemed to have completely abandoned the city.
Chen Ming's sense of vigilance instantly reached its peak.
He was wondering if this was a trap left by the mechanical race.
The mechanical race has stayed on the planet for at least half a year, so it is normal for them to have some backup plans in other places.
But even if it was a trap, there were some things he had to do, otherwise there would be no point in him coming here.
Chen Ming made up his mind and immediately controlled the aircraft, which had begun to descend in altitude earlier. At this time, it was close to the highest point on the ground and the defenders who were protecting the highest point gradually approached the city of the mechanical clan and prepared to land.
They were preparing to take away the mechanical race that had been kidnapped by a large wave of Zerg since the Zerg broke through the core area of the city just now.
There are Fiery Silkworms and special mechanical individuals on the front of the battlefield and in the core area of the city that can raise the ambient temperature and suppress Zerg parasites.
But the mechanical people outside the city are not treated so well.
It is easy to control large numbers of mechanical people by spreading the fungus.
Although the Zerg could not directly connect the mechanical bodies they controlled to Chen Ming's psychic control like Yu Hui could, it did save a lot of trouble.
As the Defenders and the High Point separated, they landed in the outer areas of the city, ready to assist in the transportation of these controlled mechanical bodies.
Once again, traces of a jump appeared in space.
However, this was not Yu Hui's third wave of reinforcements, but the trace of the Colossus-class cargo ship that Chen Ming had previously snatched from Yu Hui.
A special cruiser-class cargo ship is the main force for transporting these controlled mechanical creatures.
Although Huihuang was still on alert in space at this time, he was also distracted by helping the two ships on the ground manage the affairs of the transport machinery clan, just like before.
Seeing that the outskirts of the city no longer required his attention, Chen Ming turned his attention back to the Supreme Point he was driving.
Prepare to land in the city center and seize the mechanical cruiser.
Without the mechanical defense and all its weapons, the cruiser was just a lamb to be slaughtered.
In addition, although the mechanical people ran away, Chen Ming still gave the Queen of Insects a new target to continue tracking those escaped mechanical people.
One is to let the Zerg help him step into the traps that the Mechanical Tribe may set. Anyway, as long as the Queen Zerg does not encounter any accident, the loss of any other Zerg, or even all Zerg except the Queen Zerg, will be a drizzle.
The second is to obtain as many mechanical clans as possible.
After all, those who escaped were the mechanical tribe members who could hold on to the end, and they were the backbone of the mechanical tribe's ground combat.
The benefits gained from capturing these mechanical species will definitely be much greater than capturing those ordinary logistical mechanical bodies.
It was also at this time that Chen Ming discovered that the Zerg actually had the ability to accurately track the Mechanical Race.
Even though many mechanical races have left the city and are fleeing all over the desolate planet, the Queen Zerg can still accurately mark out each mechanical individual and have the Zerg units capture them.
The reason why the Zerg can do this seems to point to a deep pit inside the mechanical colony.
Of course, it was not the deep pit that was blown up by the special mechanical body just now, but a pit dug by the mechanical race that existed here itself.
This pit looks like a water storage warehouse in a sewage treatment plant, but the liquid stored in it is all gray-green in color, similar to the color of Zerg blood.
These things...
Chen Ming suddenly remembered that these gray-green liquids were all pollutants produced by the nanorobots in the mechanical race when they were working.
A little bit is okay, just like the mechanical machines Chen Ming encountered on Ruimu before, the amount of pollution they produced can be said to be almost zero.
But once the number of mechanical species increases and clusters are formed, the pollutants produced will cause extreme damage to the normal ecological environment.
Even the mechanical race itself does not have a good way to deal with these pollutants.
So what they do is to find a place to store it first, and then release it into the environment after a certain amount has been stored.
It doesn’t matter to the mechanical race whether a planet is habitable or not. They themselves are not affected by these pollutants. They just emit the pollutants no matter what planet it is.
This is how the Zerg are able to track the Mechanoids, each individual Mechanoid has these pollutant-producing nanobots on them.
Nanorobots are the symbol of the Zerg.
Anyway, Chen Ming felt more and more that something must have happened between the Zerg and the Mechanicals in the past, probably before humans stepped out of their own galaxy.
Now the situation of the mechanical race is not right.
Because as Chen Ming thought more deeply about the current situation, he suddenly remembered what Bai Quan had said to him before.
"When the mechanical race fights humans, they will fight to the death and will definitely defeat us to the point where we are completely helpless."
The fight to the death that Bai Quan mentioned would definitely not be the case now. It would definitely be a fight to the death with every soldier fighting to the very end.
It is impossible for the Mechanical Race to say that they don’t know that someone is controlling these Zerg races from behind the scenes.
Especially after Chen Ming killed the second batch of reinforcements of the Mechanical Clan and swept the ground with his Tachyon Spear, the Mechanical Clan should have fought to the death.
It is impossible to say that when facing insects, the mechanical race has lost the ferocity they have when facing humans.
Instead, this seemed like a temptation, tempting the Zerg to continue spending a lot of time tracking down these fleeing mechanical races.
At this point, Chen Ming finally realized one thing: the traps set by the mechanical race might not be set on the planet or in front of those escaping mechanical races, but might be set in a wider place.
He raised his head and looked at the starry sky outside the porthole at the highest point.
The third batch of reinforcements from the Mechanical Clan may have arrived. The Mechanical Clan is aware of Chen Ming’s combat effectiveness and the situation of Chen Ming’s fleet. They know that if they want to keep Chen Ming completely, they cannot appear directly in front of Chen Ming.
They have to make some preparations and arrangements.
Then it is completely understandable that the mechanical people on the ground cooperate and do things that they would not do under normal circumstances.
After figuring this out, Chen Ming felt a sense of pressure in his heart.
Those mechanical races that fled out of the city were no longer a threat to the Zerg after losing their cluster. They were just walking trophies.
The city was also abandoned by the mechanical clan, and everything in the city was left to Chen Ming's control.
The mechanical race is not using those mechanical races as bait, but using the entire city as bait to trap Chen Ming on this planet and in the galaxy.
But Chen Ming still couldn't be sure what the mechanical clan should do specifically.
But at this moment, Chen Ming's psychic power suddenly took effect, and a sense of danger from outside the galaxy came into Chen Ming's mind.
This sense of danger was like a cover that was gradually closing, gradually confining Chen Ming completely within this galaxy.
Chen Ming took a deep breath and prepared himself mentally.
Then he immediately gave orders to the Queen of Zerg, directly recalling the Zerg and stopping tracking the fleeing Mechanicals. Instead, he began to concentrate on capturing the Mechanicals on the ground.
He had to take away as much loot as he needed before the danger he sensed like a hood closed completely.
Anyway, for Chen Ming, whether they are the escaped mechanical race or the mechanical race that remains in the city, they are all individuals of the mechanical race and can enhance the hive thinking network of his mechanical race. There is no essential difference between them.
The only difference is the abilities of their former mechanical bodies.
But as long as Chen Ming masters the method of manufacturing mechanical people, the difference in the body will no longer be a difference.
So Chen Ming changed his mind directly and decided to capture mechanical individuals as efficiently as possible.
He doesn't have much time left.
He must start the jump engine and take the captured mechanical people away from here before the last moment arrives.
As for the Zerg on the planet, they will have no choice but to stay on the planet.
After all, the number of these Zerg units has reached a terrifying level during the Queen's development during this period of time. Even if there have been many losses in the process of attacking the city, they cannot be taken away by two cruisers in a short time.
At that time, these insects will be directly absorbed by the Queen Insect and transformed into the most basic energy crystals.
Chen Ming's spiritual power can just directly recover these energy crystals, minimizing the losses.
One minute later.
Chen Ming's highest point landed near the cruiser in the core of the city.
During the landing process, Chen Ming had already released a group of robots equipped with afterglow cores from the highest point and landed on the landing craft in advance.
Following that, another Defender that had separated from the Supreme Point landed in the middle of the city and began to clean up the battlefield in cooperation with the Zerg.
What Chen Ming wanted was to let these afterglows find the mechanical family with damaged lines, and then immediately connect to the lines for control.
As long as the mechanical race is controlled by Chen Ming, they will be transformed into abnormal sub-individuals, and Chen Ming can directly transfer the consciousness of these abnormal sub-individuals to the honeycomb network of the mechanical race he has constructed.
He relied purely on his consciousness and mental strength to temporarily support the survival of these mechanical creatures.
Save storage space on both of his cruisers.
Anyway, Chen Ming’s goal is indeed the consciousness of these mechanical races, not their bodies.
As long as the consciousness of the mechanical race exists and these consciousnesses strengthen the honeycomb network to the point where new mechanical consciousness individuals can be constructed, the problem of the body is actually very easy to solve.
Then the only thing he had to do next was to control the cruiser.
However, he had not yet had time to disembark.
A piece of news reached his ears that made him stunned.
The afterglow entities he sent out and installed on robots failed when they tried to control the mechanical creatures with damaged appearances.
His mental power cannot affect the consciousness contained in the core chips of the mechanical race.
He couldn't control the mechanical individuals.
However, when Yuhui and the others tried to connect to the bodies of the mechanical creatures whose consciousness had died, there was no obstruction.
This strange situation made Chen Ming stunned for a long time, and countless chaotic thoughts and ideas flashed through his mind.
But he didn't have time to think about it, because the methods deployed by the mechanical race in the galaxy would not give him time to think.
Chen Ming could only let those thoughts stay in his mind like a tangled mess for the time being and deal with them later.
Now let’s take these mechanical people away from the physical level first.
As for the cruiser in front of him, he had to try it himself.
See why his psychic powers can't control the mechanical race.
Was there something wrong with the afterglow of the transfer, or was there something wrong with his psychic power?
Or maybe there is something wrong with these mechanical people themselves.
Chen Ming came to the exit of the highest point.
Pure white metallic liquid gradually flowed out of his body, mixed with some bright green Zerg energy crystals.
The white cloud steel liquid gradually condensed into the skeleton of the power armor, and the color of those energy crystals gradually solidified on the skeleton, gradually turning black.
In a blink of an eye, what appeared on Chen Ming's body was not the locust power armor given by Bai Quan, but a unique biomass armor.
The covering of jet-black Zerg carapace gives the armor a biological aesthetic.
At this moment, Chen Ming no longer looked like a man wearing modern individual combat equipment, but rather like he had evolved into a ferocious insect.
The original mechanical auxiliary wings on the back of the power armor were replaced by the Zerg's elytra, and the collision of the jet pack was also covered with Zerg's carapace, giving it the texture of a Zerg biological spaceship.
This is a complete set of biological armor created by Chen Ming using the biological technology and power armor technology he currently mastered as well as the deep maintenance capabilities he had just acquired.
It combines the advantages of the Zerg carapace and the Locust Armor, and surpasses the prototype Locust Power Armor in almost all capabilities.
It can also be regarded as an attempt by Chen Ming.
Chen Ming realized that biology and machinery are not two ends of the spectrum. They can be combined with each other to accomplish things that were originally difficult to do, reaching heights that are more difficult to achieve than with any single technology.
During this attempt, after communicating with the Queen of Zerg, Chen Ming discovered that the Zerg still had various shortcomings even after having his psychic deep repairs.
These shortcomings are inherent to the species and cannot be compensated by the species itself.
So Chen Ming came up with this idea at that time and tried it.
The result was clearly a success.
The unique evolutionary ability of the Zerg and the crystallization of human technology are fully reflected in the biomass power armor that Chen Ming is currently wearing.
This proves that the way Chen Ming chose to make up for the shortcomings of the Zerg species was correct.
He will make more attempts later.
This biomass powered armor is also the basis for him to have the confidence to leave the spaceship in the mechanical city.
Of course, there was another thing that gave him confidence: the psychic power of the Queen of Insects.
To be precise, it is the Zerg's psychic power.
