In the flagship of the German-Austrian special fleet, Baltra frowned as he looked at the cracks in the void ahead and the asteroids that kept appearing.
"Stop the fleet immediately and prepare for battle. At the same time, send fighter planes for reconnaissance. I have a bad feeling!"
"Yes, Commander Baltra!"
Hearing what Baltra said, the adjutant suddenly became nervous.
Soon, two fighter planes flew out of the fleet and flew towards the abnormal area 1 million kilometers away.
"Commander, the fighter plane has set off and will arrive at the target area in about 5 minutes!"
"Okay, tell the pilot, be careful. If anything happens, retreat immediately!"
"yes!"
Ten minutes later, two fighter planes approached the periphery of the group of asteroids, turned on the various reconnaissance equipment carried by the fighter planes, and began a close-range scan!
And Altra was also in the bridge of the flagship, watching the real-time scanning results.
"Huh? It shows that there is a complex network of channels inside? Every one of them?"
Looking at the results of the structural scan, Baltra was a little confused. According to the scan results, each asteroid had an extremely complex channel network inside and was not solid. This was very abnormal.
Wait, channel network? Could it be
"Quick, let the fighters turn on the life scanning equipment immediately!"
"Yes, Commander Baltra!"
A few seconds later, the fighter jet activated its life scanner and scanned one of the asteroids.
At the same time, a life scanning picture was also displayed in front of Baltra, showing an asteroid being scanned.
A few seconds later, the scan was completed, and the image in front of Baltra suddenly changed. He saw that the asteroid was densely packed with life signals, numbering at least a billion!
"Quickly, order the fighters to retreat!"
Baltra immediately shouted to his lieutenant.
Unfortunately, it was too late. A large number of objects suddenly flew out of the asteroid, swooping towards the two fighters like locusts.
Because it was too sudden, and the fighter plane was too close to the asteroid in order to conduct life scanning, it was directly surrounded by the locust swarm-like object. A few seconds later, the two pilots displayed on one side of the flagship bridge The driver's vital signs turned red, indicating that the two pilots had lost their lives!
"Detect it immediately and release the detected image!"
"Yes, Commander Baltra!"
More than ten seconds later.
"Commander Baltra, the observation has been completed, now project the image!"
With a wave of the adjutant's hand, an image was displayed in front of Baltra!
Looking at this dense group of objects, they all turned out to be ugly bugs. They were huge, about 5 meters long, and had a pair of huge front legs like a sickle.
Bugs that can survive in space
Baltra was a little confused. This was because he had seen bugs that could fly and survive directly in space. Not to mention seeing them, he had never even heard of them.
And this quantity.
There are more than a billion bugs in one asteroid. How many such bugs are there in the more than 1,000 asteroids that have appeared now, and in the asteroids that will continue to appear in the future
This question made Baltra's scalp tingle.
"Quick, order the fleet to start attacking immediately, give priority to those asteroids, and blow them all up!"
"Yes, Commander Baltra!"
Baltra believes that even if these bugs are very powerful and capable of destroying fighter planes in space, they should not pose an effective threat to warships.
After all, the battleship's condition is often more than ten meters high. The pair of front feet of these bugs can't penetrate the armor of more than ten meters!
Therefore, attack the asteroid first. As long as the asteroid is exploded, all the bugs inside that have not yet come out should be killed at once!
Although, according to normal logic, Baltra's analysis was correct, and the tactics he adopted were fine.
However, the mysterious enemy in front of them is definitely not a species that can be treated normally. It is illogical to say that they can survive and fly in space.
And Baltra's wrong judgment will soon cost him a big enough price.
Fifty thousand warships quickly formed an attack formation and began a fierce attack on the more than a thousand asteroids ahead!
Since the distance is only 1 million kilometers, the German-Austrian special fleet obviously has a high hit rate, but it is only a high hit rate.
When the first wave of attacks crashed into the asteroid group, many asteroids were indeed hit directly.
However, the power of the attack is not enough, and the effect is very limited when mounted on these asteroids.
When the German-Austrian Special Fleet completed its first wave of attacks and was recharging its weapons for the second wave of attacks, a large number of bugs were flying out of all the asteroids in front, heading in the direction of the German-Austrian Special Fleet. Pounce in a straight line.
On the bridge and on the tactical images, the numbers are rising.
700 million
3.5 billion
10.9 billion
27 billion
In just one minute, the number of these bugs has exceeded 27.9 billion, and this is not the limit. A large number of bugs are still flying out of various asteroids.
Attacking one after another, the German and Austrian special fleets did not even have to deliberately aim at the insects that covered the entire area!
There are so many that no matter where you shoot, there seems to be no miss.
Although the attack effect is very good, the number of opponents is too much. According to the latest information, more than 2,000 asteroids and more than 50 billion bugs have appeared at the crack.
The Oude Special Fleet, a total of 50,000 battleships, bombarded the insect swarm wave after wave, but in fact, this was of no effect. There was not even a decrease in the number of bugs. After all, the number of these bugs was very large. Too scary.
A few minutes later, the insect swarm crossed the firefighting zone and pounced directly into the array of the German and Austrian special fleets.
"Order the entire fleet to treat these bugs as fighter targets and clean them up. All battleship air defense systems are turned on!"
"Yes, Commander Baltra!"
At the same moment, at the forefront of the battlefield, more than a dozen bugs lay directly on a battleship of the German-Austrian Special Fleet, then raised their sickle-like front legs and swung directly towards the outer shell of the battleship.
Suddenly, a very deep crack was cut out of the battleship's shell.
Looking at the big hole made by itself, and feeling the numerous life breaths inside the battleship, the bug immediately jumped into the hole and broke into the interior of the battleship!
Several insects nearby also saw this scene, pounced on it one after another, and crawled in through the big hole.
