Chapter 223 Chasing
This invasion was brought forward because, with the instigation of the resistance, the Zerg realized that they needed to start a war before the new generation of transcendents and healers fully grew up.
Otherwise, the hope of winning will only become slimmer.
Therefore, they even gave up attacking the Federation and the Empire at the same time as in the plot, and chose to attack the Federation with all their strength.
They were originally trying to see if they could lure Yu Zhi over. Now that they saw her really appear on the front line of the battlefield, the Zerg commander immediately became excited and ordered the Zerg soldiers under him to rush forward desperately.
At the same time, four Zerg hives were temporarily transferred through the black hole, and the Zerg army, which was already extremely large in number, now had even more manpower.
Although both the Federation and the Empire quickly dispatched reinforcements to support after discovering the situation, it would still take some time.
The pressure on the front battlefield suddenly increased.
Extraordinary people were continuously dispatched from the war preparation base and the second front to join the battle.
But the several blocks in front of Yu Zhi continued to turn red one by one, and the color continued to deepen.
Even though she had squeezed the available energy in her body to the extreme, the battle situation still gradually became one-sided.
The extraordinary army had to start shrinking its front line.
"Ms. Yu Zhi, we need to retreat!" The team of extraordinary people responsible for protecting her said anxiously.
Now is not the time to show off, Yu Zhi nodded, followed the instructions and quickly evacuated to the rear.
She had to keep as much distance as possible from the extraordinary people on the outer front.
Otherwise, the Anchorworm would have mindlessly brought high-level combat Zerg to assassinate her.
If they are attacked at close range, the extraordinary people on the front line will have to go back to provide support, which will disrupt the well-established defensive formation and the situation will only get worse faster.
But as long as Yu Zhi carefully maintains a distance that requires the Anchor Worm to jump several times to reach, the Zerg will suffer too great a sacrifice if they want to implement this tactic.
After the front line shrinks, the frequency of rotation and fighting among the extraordinary people will increase, and they can delay the battle for a while longer.
Time passes by every second.
It has been nearly ten hours since the emergency alarm sounded.
Some reinforcement troops arrived and the situation improved slightly after joining the battlefield.
Yu Zhi's healing energy was almost exhausted after ten hours of continuous soothing.
With such a large number of people and consumption, even she would find it difficult to maintain the "expenditure balance" of energy.
However, the military was well prepared for this.
As she raised her hand, a bottle of dark blue potion was handed to her - free support from the empire.
This is already the second generation product, and it is specially developed for Yu Zhi.
Compared to the first generation which restored healing energy by a certain value, the second generation has been updated to restore energy by percentage.
This is not very cost-effective for low-level healers, but it is extremely suitable for Yu Zhi.
After one dose, the energy in his body had recovered by 30%, and then two more doses were handed over.
Although the cost of one is nearly 10 million star coins, it is almost free at this time.
Although the number of extraordinary people on the field was far less than that of the Zerg, they managed to hold on thanks to Yu Zhi's continuous healing.
until--
Four more Zerg hives were transferred here.
The structure and characteristics of the mother nest are very special, and it can quickly jump through black holes.
But the Federation and the Empire's starships and extraordinary people do not have this ability, and can only rush here from other places temporarily.
Even if we already have space jump technology, we cannot reach a black hole instantly like we can.
Wei Yuan had no choice but to order the abandonment of Star 392 and all personnel to retreat to the second front.
For the past dozens of hours, he has been fighting dozens of super-high-level Zergs alone almost without any interruption.
Kill one batch, and a new batch will come.
Later on, he had to rely on Yu Zhi's special care to continue to maintain such combat intensity.
The same is true for Qiao Zhiyu and Sheng Jiayi.
Even though the Zerg's defense against the two of them was not as strict as Wei Yuan's, they still faced continuous attacks from several high-level Zerg.
The Zerg sensed the federal army's intention to retreat and attacked more fiercely.
At the same time, dozens of hidden anchor worms swarmed out, carrying high-level Zerg such as sickle-blade worms, crossed the outermost line of defense, and headed directly for Yu Zhi.
The two hidden anchor worms took the lead in using space jump, leading this assault force to the inside of the outer defense line.
The extraordinary people on the front line reacted quickly and tried desperately to stop them.
A Cryptobot and a Titan Beetle were killed in the process.
The hidden anchor worm leaped again and had already created some distance from the defense line.
The muzzle of the anti-aircraft device on the ground had predicted their landing point, and the high-power particle cannon fired instantly. Most of the energy was absorbed by the Titan beetle, but it still took the lives of two hidden anchor beetles.
There are still ten hidden anchor worms and dozens of combat-type high-level Zergs remaining.
The extraordinary people left behind on the ground were also rushing towards Yu Zhi quickly, and emergency response devices were activated one by one.
Chen Wang summoned the Jade Chi, and together with Xie Wenyu and Yu Zhi, they sat on it and flew away quickly.
Qiao Zhiyu and Sheng Jiayi immediately chose to retreat to protect Yu Zhi.
Kuiji's expression also changed. He burst out with all his strength and killed the two high-level Zergs in front of him. Then he rode on Dun Dun and flew towards Yu Zhi.
The third space jump.
This group of Zerg teams has arrived at Yu Zhi’s original location.
There were only the military's extraordinary people there now. They attacked with all their might as soon as the Zerg appeared, but they were unable to stop them in just a few seconds.
The fourth leap.
The distance between them and Yu Zhi was less than five kilometers.
Two more hidden anchor worms had used up their skills and were ruthlessly abandoned to delay the extraordinary people.
The fifth, sixth, and seventh leaps.
Although the speed of the hidden anchor worm's continuous leaps is faster than the flying speed of the jade dragon.
However, because the landing point was detected in advance by the positioning device, there were countless extraordinary people waiting in wait throughout the pursuit.
Almost every jump is accompanied by the death of one or two high-level Zergs - and this is when the interval time is extremely short.
But they finally narrowed the distance to two thousand meters.
Even if the time the Jade Chi continued to fly was taken into account, it would only take two jumps at most to catch up.
But the jade dragon stopped.
Because everyone present knew that the Zerg's operation could not succeed this time.
The losses along the way were too great, and now they only have eight sickle-blade beetles, five titan beetles, three golden beetles and the last two hidden anchor beetles left.
Yu Zhi had already slipped into Xie Wenyu's mecha cockpit like a slippery loach.
The hidden anchor worms cannot enter a space smaller than their own size through space jump, as doing so will only cause them to be torn apart by turbulence.
But if they had to break through the hard turtle shell, Qiao Zhiyu and others who caught up with them would be enough to kill them.
