But Qiao Lv knew very well that although the number of Zergs that appeared so far was huge, they were actually cannon fodder for the Queen of Blades to try to trick the Nova Impact.

If it were the elite main force of the swarm, it would be a large group of Thunder Beasts hitting the barrier force field, and there should also be a large number of Brood Lords in the sky, as well as Leviathan, the flagship of the Queen of Blades, not just flying dragons, Zerglings and Banelings are as simple as that.

At this stage, the Wandering Earth still has to see the tricks, and wait until the main force of the Zerg lands as much as possible, and then use the Nova Impact of the Keystone to wipe them out in one fell swoop!

While the Zerg outside were still continuously impacting the barrier force field, there was an unusual vibration from the ground, as if there was a gigantic beast swimming beneath the ground.

"Unknown earthquake movement detected, tunnel worms are coming!"

Before the words fell, a terrifying creature like a giant sandworm broke out from the ground, opened its bloody mouth and spit out countless zerg troops from it, bypassing the barrier force field from below and directly entering the Shanghai Fortress.

That is the tunnel worm of the Zerg. This giant sandworm-like creature can stretch itself to an astonishing length, thus using its own flesh and blood to form a tunnel underground, allowing the swarm to move rapidly by relying on the channel's peristalsis and chemical stimulants. The speed shuttles inside, thus posing a huge threat to the area that was thought to be safe.

The barrier force field of the planetary engine fortress can't extend to the depths of the ground, which is why the zerg spit out from the tunnel worm can directly engage with the human army hand-to-hand, which is the field they are best at.

The defenders in the city immediately bombarded the heads of the tunnel worms indiscriminately, trying every means to destroy them in the shortest possible time.

However, even so, the tunnel worms still spit out a large number of zerg troops, and started a street battle with humans in the urban area of ​​Shanghai.

And there are far more than one tunnel worm like this. If they are allowed to continue to send Zerg troops into it, the barrier force field covering the entire Shanghai will be useless!

Faced with this situation, Qiao Lv immediately ordered:

"Drilling Beast, it's time for you to dispatch!"

The prototype was obtained from the planet Cybertron, and the drill beast was used when the asteroid mined energy crystals. Now it is used again by the wandering earth as a war machine.

This dragon-like steel worm also burrowed into the ground like a tunnel worm, relying on the serrated cutterhead on its head to devour and crush soil, rocks, and anything else.

Under the ground, the Drilling Beast is like a fish in water. The Wandering Earth was able to dig so many complicated tunnels in a short period of time, thanks to this huge steel worm.

Just don't think that the Drilling Beast can only be used as a shield machine. Its body is covered with sharp serrated blades, which can not only rotate at high speed to dig tunnels, but also crush everything blocking the way like a meat grinder. thing.

The Nydus Worm stretched underground until its soft body became the best target of the Driller Beast. While it was quickly transporting the Zerg Troops in its body, it cut it in half with the high-speed rotating sawtooth cutterhead!

Unlike the Drilling Beast, which is covered in steel and steel and covered with blades, almost all the armor of the Nydus Worm is on the head. In order to be able to extend infinitely, the body has to be as soft as possible to absorb the vibrations from the ground, but The steel teeth and iron mouth of the drilling beast cannot be stopped.

The Drilling Beast easily bit off the bodies of several tunnel worms underground. Even when the tunnel worms tried to fight back through the bloody mouth, they could roll the serrated blades on their body so that they could not bite, and in turn bit the tunnels with one bite. Insect's soft body.

The existence of this terrifying steel worm made it impossible for the tunnel worms to go any further. The longer their bodies were stretched, the more likely they would be strangled underground by the drilling beasts.

Therefore, the tunnel worm can only break out of the ground immediately after bypassing the barrier force field, and would rather bear the fierce firepower on the ground than be bitten in two by the drilling beast underground.

In this way, the effect of the tunnel worms is greatly limited, and they cannot go deep into the enemy's rear for surprise attacks. They can only barely bypass the barrier force field, allowing the swarms to have a chance to enter the barrier.

It's just that even if they successfully enter the barrier force field, there are still a large number of fortifications waiting for them in the urban area of ​​Shanghai.

There are human machine gun positions on every street, and a large number of small light prism towers are densely covered like telegraph poles. The Zerg troops transported by the tunnel worms are stuck in the mud, and there is no chance to get close to Shanghai No. [-] where the keystone is placed. engine.

In this underground war, the Wandering Earth relied on the Drilling Beast to gain an advantage. The tunnel raid that the Zerg is best at has no chance to come in handy now!

Chapter 399 Endless Sea of ​​Insects

With the passage of time, the outside of the barrier force field has been completely covered by the Zerg's creep, and dense swarms of bugs writhed and squirmed on it, extending all the way to the end of the horizon.

Countless airdrop sacs were still falling in the sky like a torrential rain, and each drop was like raindrops falling into the ocean, creating waves in the endless sea of ​​insects, which meant that more insects would join the battlefield.

Under the threat of the Drilling Beast, the Nydus Worm did not dare to go deep into the vicinity of the planetary engine where the Keystone is located, but it still appeared underground from time to time like a whack-a-mole, helping some Zerg troops bypass the energy barrier and directly attack Shanghai. The city attacks.

Now the entire Wandering Earth Shanghai Fortress is in a battle from the inside to the outside. The endless sea of ​​insects is constantly impacting the barrier force field outside, and the Zerg troops sneak in through the tunnel insects from time to time, fighting with the garrisoned city. The human forces engaged in brutal street fighting.

The Drilling Beast patrolled the city of Shanghai underground, trying to prevent any Nydus Worm from entering.But the swarm seemed to be fighting a guerrilla war at this time. With the advantage of the number of tunnel worms, they could send the zerg continuously into the barrier force field no matter what, but they couldn't go directly behind the enemy and transport them to the keystone.

While the outside of the barrier force field was under the impact of waves of insect swarms, the battle inside the Shanghai Fortress was also intensifying. Under the endless attacks of the insect swarms, it was inevitable that a few streets would fall, and all buildings and fortifications would become Due to the ruins, humans had no choice but to shrink their line of defense and retreat to the next area.

Just as Qiao Lv originally expected, the Queen of Blades concentrated her main forces near the Shanghai Fortress.

Although other cities have also been attacked by insect swarms to varying degrees, they are basically within the acceptable range and have not reached the level that can threaten the dungeon.

Only around the Shanghai Fortress, there was a huge swarm of insects, like ants smelling honey, rushing towards this side crazily.

On the one hand, this is because the energy emitted by the keystone has a natural attraction to the Zerg, and on the other hand, it is also because the Queen of Blades is very aware that this Xel'Naga artifact is the biggest threat to her.

If this thorn in the side is not removed first, no matter how huge the swarm is, it will be wiped out under the impact of the fully charged nova, and even she herself will be knocked back to her original shape by the energy of the keystone. This is the only thing she fears.

You must know that the Queen of Blades, who has become the master of the swarm, can be resurrected by re-hatching a new body no matter if she is killed by any other means.

The Keystone is the only thing that can completely purify her, which is why the Queen of Blades has come to get it at all costs!

Just as the defense forces on the wandering earth were still struggling to resist the swarm, the voice of the Queen of Blades suddenly sounded over the city:

"The defense line is well organized, but it is far from enough. My swarm is like a vast ocean, but you are suffering casualties every minute. What suspense is there in the result?"

As the Queen of Blades said, even with a high battle loss of 1:1000 in exchange, the number of zerg in the Koprulu sector is far more than that of humans on the Wandering Earth, not to mention that the Wandering Earth is not a place where all the people live. For all soldiers, the combat population including support personnel is less than one-tenth, and the disparity compared with the Zerg is even greater.

Now the Queen of Blades is just continuing to exert pressure, trying to force the Wandering Earth to use Nova Impact to clear the field, and then she can unscrupulously send all the main forces to flatten the Shanghai Fortress in one wave, and then occupy it after getting the keystone The whole wandering earth.

The reason why she made provocative words was also to achieve this goal. As long as the coalition government took the lead in using Nova Shock without complacency, there would be nothing to stop the Zerg's main force.

So Qiao Lv also used his psychic power to respond loudly: "Don't be too happy, we still have billions of people, every inch of mountains and rivers and every inch of blood, [-] youths and [-] soldiers! Let's see who is drowning in the ocean of war!" !"

"You are seeking your own death!"

With the Queen of Blades' angry cry, more advanced Zerg units appeared on the battlefield. In addition to the Hydralisks and cockroaches that had appeared before, there were also octopus-like hanging tentacles in the air, and bird-like sharp ones. The Corruptor, pecking and swelling the sac, attacks the barrier field with more ferocious ranged fire.

Under normal circumstances, Corruptors will only appear near the most evolved hives. They generate a powerful electromagnetic force field through their tentacles to distort the gravity nearby, allowing them to fly through the air as if swimming by waving their tentacles.

Corruptors attack by spitting out parasitic spores in liquid sacs, blasting straight at the energy barrier like biological missiles.Or spit out green corrosion spray, spray strong acid from above onto the barrier force field, and continuously erode the shield.

Regardless of the attack method, the Corruptor will be greatly depleted by the integrity of the barrier force field, so the defenders have to focus their firepower on these disgusting and terrifying creatures first.

However, the Corruptor is not as fragile as the Wyvern, with a bulbous shell of neurons growing around its seemingly bloated body.

When hit by other objects with sufficient force, these tissues will become absorbed by foamy substances, just like the reactive armor of a tank, which has excellent protection against anti-aircraft missiles.

This damaged neuronal tissue is then discarded and regenerated, allowing the Corruptor to absorb more firepower, which in turn causes more damage to the barrier field.

After a large number of Corruptors joined the battlefield, the depletion rate of the barrier force field soared. At the same time, the cockroaches that could move underground also entered the barrier together with the tunnel worms, bringing greater pressure to the garrison troops in Shanghai.

The Hydralisk's venomous spines hit the energy barrier like a storm. Although every shot would still be bounced off, the barrier force field obviously couldn't support the keystone when it was fully charged.

What's even more frightening is that thunder beasts began to appear in the distance. Once these huge siege beasts gallop up, even the intercepting force field of the protoss mechanical sentinels will be crushed, and there is almost nothing that can stop them their charge.

If these Thunder Beasts were allowed to charge towards them, it would be the last camel that crushed the straw to the force field of the planetary engine barrier, and it was impossible to stop them intact.

The swarm gradually showed their ferocious fangs, but Qiao Li knew it was not time to use the keystone nova to charge.Because Leviathan, the flagship of the Hive Fleet, has not yet arrived, and the Queen of Blades, who has level [-] spiritual fluctuations, has not yet descended on the Wandering Earth.

The coalition government must first make a difficult decision. In order to ensure that the barrier force field can persist until the end, it must not forcefully connect the thunder beasts that are like living siege vehicles to charge head-on.
