Chapter 692, Titan Showdown, Battle of Rheaduches (VII)
Witnessing a Warlord-class Titan from distant Mars being captured by the ferocious appendages of a Zerg Saint Titan, with the huge chainsaw sword swinging in vain but missing the target, Gu Zhouhua anxiously controlled the action system and ordered to open fire.
The plasma cannon equipped on Gu Zhouhua's warlord-class Titan suddenly fired and hit the side of the Insect Saint Biological Titan at a distance of less than 500 meters.
The plasma cannon is still powerful, especially at such a close distance.
A big hole was melted on the body of this insect saint.
Like the Zerg bio-ships, the Zerg Saints also lacked void shields or energy shields. Instead, they had thicker, better-performing armor. At the same time, they were organic creatures that had a strong internal self-repairing ability after being damaged.
But despite this, the wound that Gu Zhouhua had just inflicted on this Insect Saint was still the biggest.
However, it still failed to stop the Insect Saint from killing the warlord-level Titan of the Martian sect.
It ignored the firepower of Gu Zhouhua's plasma cannon, and aimed its huge cannon at the chest of the Titan under its feet and opened fire.
The cockpit, along with important parts of the chest, were destroyed in an instant.
This Martian warlord-class Titan was destroyed.
Then, its sharp appendages cut downwards, ensuring the end of the Titan once and for all.
However, Gu Zhouhua's Titan also rushed nearby at this time.
A 'long knife' stabbed insidiously, but Gu Zhouhua dodged it.
Under his operation, his Warlord Titan hit the side of the Insect Saint hard, knocking it off balance.
Then, the huge chainsaw sword cut a big hole in its body.
The roaring Insect Saint turned his head and wanted to hit Gu Zhouhua at close range with the gun barrel extended from his mouthparts, but he was hit by a heavy punch before firing, and his head was knocked crooked.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Zhouhua inserted the gun barrel into the Insect Saint's wound.
Another fierce one.
Chainsaw sword cuts again!
No matter how strong the Insect Saint's vitality was or how thick his armor was, he could not withstand such a blow and was completely destroyed.
Gu Zhouhua was overjoyed, but the next moment he felt his whole body shaking.
As he charged to rescue his friendly forces but failed to kill an important target, the enemy's heavy firepower was also concentrated on him.
At this moment, the void shield was overloaded.
Around him, at least four holy servant insects - also known as little holy insects - had already approached.
He turned the gun and shot one dead, but when he wanted to kill the second one, there was another violent shock.
The Titan he was piloting was immobilized.
Gu Zhouhua's face turned pale.
In such a fierce battlefield, what does it mean when the void shield is broken and the mobility is lost?
It's the end of it.
It would be a lie to say I'm not afraid.
Especially since he has a bright future.
As a member of the Gu family, he had a smooth journey from Zhongsi College to the National Knights. He also participated in the previous Wanzhou Star Battle, defeating the Iron Armor Fallen Titan Legion and made great contributions.
After he returns, he will be able to be promoted quickly.
But I didn't expect that I would die here.
But despite his fear, he still did not lose his basic judgment.
"Quickly adjust the plasma cannon and hit target B4! Quick, quick, quick! It's aiming at us!"
"The damage report has been issued. It's not life-threatening. Damage control team, hurry up!"
He is making his final struggle.
The little bug saint marked as B4 still gave them a shot. The overloaded void shield failed to block it, but the warlord-level armor gave a wave of force and withstood it once.
However, two more attacks were imminent.
Unable to move, relying on armor to block the attack, the outcome seems to be doomed.
But at this moment, Gu Zhouhua saw that a flame exploded from the body of each of the three little insect saints.
From behind him, a group of knights rushed out.
Six Ranger-class tanks, two Overlord-class tanks, led by a Nemesis-class tank, arrived here!
The Nemesis is fourteen meters tall, almost the same size as the Warhound-class Titan, but a little thinner; the Overlord-class is eleven meters tall; and the Ranger-class is about eight meters tall.
Their size is almost miniature compared to the warlord class which is about 30 meters long. But in fact, compared to the insect saint, they are not much smaller. Although the firepower equipped on them is much smaller than that of the Titan, there are nine of them after all.
The three little bug saints were blown to pieces, and Gu Zhouhua's Titan took this opportunity to kill the B4 target.
Then, he cooperated with the knights to take care of the remaining two.
The Knights also lost two.
But at this moment, Gu Zhouhua was not optimistic.
From a distance, he saw a worm saint with several small worm saints, who seemed to have noticed the battle situation here. They had just dealt with two war dogs and seemed to be coming over to kill the immobile warlord-level machine he was on.
With the cooperation of the knights, they can deal with the Holy Service Bugs, but they cannot deal with the Grand Holy Master Bugs.
A voice request came through, and after answering it, it turned out to be from the Knight of Vengeance.
"Hello, Colonel. I am Grand Knight Commander Rudolf Hart. May I ask if your Titan can still be repaired?"
"have."
"How long will it take?"
"Eighteen minutes, but I'm afraid I won't live to see that time..."
"Please speed up with your men. We will buy you eighteen minutes."
"What?"
By this time, Grand Knight Rudolf Hart had stopped responding.
But Gu Zhouhua could hear external sounds.
The Knight of the Goddess of Vengeance shouted loudly: "For the Empire! For the Alliance! For the glory of the Black Arrow! Black Arrow Knight Squadron, follow me and charge!"
Hearing this, Gu Zhouhua understood that these were the knights from the same hometown as him, the Black Arrow Star in the Pegasus Star Region.
It was only at this time that he discovered that in addition to the livery of the Alliance National Knights, these knights also had a small black feather arrow logo on their chests.
Looking at them rushing towards the Insect Saint Titan, Gu Zhouhua couldn't help but burst into tears.
"I swear, I will either die here or I will destroy that insect saint!"
…
Leroy observed the battlefield from a distance.
The massive battle between the Titans unfolded right before him.
In fact, he could probably judge that this group of new Zerg troops that came to support the battlefield were not specifically here to support this battlefield.
It was more like the Zerg had already prepared a large-scale attack on the human base, and this force was on the way, and the two sides collided.
Is it a coincidence?
Not at all, actually.
Just as humans intended to break the current deadlock by launching an all-out offensive after a large-scale airborne attack, the Zerg actually had similar plans.
It is normal indeed.
They gathered their forces and prepared for a big fight.
The Queen of Insects could no longer tolerate humans occupying a base on the surface of the planet and continuously expanding this base.
As the air defense nests are eradicated one by one, the success rate of human beings launching extermination weapons will become higher and higher. Until it exceeds a certain critical point, even if there are backup plans and special targeted interception, it may not be able to stop it.
At that point, it was over.
Rather than waiting to see humans deploy more troops to the ground and expand their base bit by bit, it would be better to kill this base, which is not that big at the moment, in one fell swoop. Then, before humans make the next large-scale airborne landing, rebuild the air defense nest in the area.
The Queen of Insects understood that if she wanted to win this war, she could not expect a quick victory, but could only delay it until a year later, when the large reinforcements sent from the 'tentacles' arrived, before she could truly compete with humans.
She would have to prepare for a long war.
Although the amount of biomass she currently controls is limited, and she has nowhere to make up for it after humans blockaded the entire planet, but because of this, the millions of humans in the base are a great tonic in her eyes.
The idea that the development of insect swarms only requires biomass is not wrong, but it is not complete.
Biomass is not completely equal to organic matter.
If it were just pure organic matter, why would the swarms devour the world?
Why not just find a planet and farm there?
The amount of endless stellar energy converted into organic matter is much more abundant than the little bit obtained by eating up the creatures of an entire world.
But in fact, human scholars have not observed that the Void Zerg have a similar mechanism.
According to the analysis of the seized 'biomass', it is currently believed that it is not simply organic matter. The presence of 'souls' has been detected in it.
The so-called "soul" is, of course, not the appearance of the person being devoured before death. Instead, it is something that has been transformed after being eaten and digested and can be used by the Zerg. The process of the Zerg "digesting" the dead or the living not only represents a transformation of matter, but also a transformation of the soul.
For the Void Zerg, the most delicious thing is the body of a creature that is soaked in its wisdom, experience, strength, will... these soul-level things.
Eating an adult human is much better than simply eating a piece of grass or a forest; similarly, eating a strong person is much better than simply eating a group of ordinary mortals.
Those with weak souls, or even no souls, were just ordinary plants and animals. After eating and digesting them, they could only create ordinary worker insects and soldier insects. However, the flesh that was moistened by a strong soul was the necessary raw material for creating some powerful Zerg creatures.
This is true whether it is some Zerg tyrants, biological titans, or biological battleships.
Because of this, the Queen of Insects is obsessed with the "delicacies" in the human base.
Although there are not many of them, each of them is a veteran of many battles; there are also many generals among them, even mortal generals and officers, their experience and wisdom are also very popular.
Not to mention the Space Marines, and numerous champions of this and that.
Whether from the perspective of strategic security or the perspective of replenishing biomass resources, it is inevitable that the Zerg will mobilize a large army to try to conquer the human base.
They have already been accumulating troops.
It is only natural that the armies of both sides would meet here.
The Zerg judged that this important nest could not be taken by the human army at the moment, so they mobilized their army in advance and came to support.
Just as Le Roux lamented in his heart, they had to engage in a ground decisive battle with the Zerg without being prepared. For the Zerg, they also had to fight a decisive battle with humans without having accumulated all their troops.
That's quite fair.
On the current front battlefield, the situation of the human army and the Zerg is roughly the same.
Leroy turned away from watching the fight.
He has his own battles to fight.
