Chapter 1302 A Two-Sided Attack
Chu Yuanzhen stared intently at the main light screen. Only after confirming that the purple core beam of light had accurately landed on the mother insect did he slowly exhale a breath of turbid air.
After Yun Shengzhe killed the larger mother insect, he ordered Xu Yinyin to keep a close eye on the other juvenile mother insect.
As he had predicted, the queen worm took advantage of the tense standoff and burrowed into the swarm of soft, ribbon-like worms, perfectly concealing herself and attempting to sneak away from the battlefield through the defensive line.
Therefore, he decisively issued an order to kill the mother insect and used the newly equipped purple nuclear beam weapon on the main warship. This weapon, which is powered by nuclear kinetic energy, is more accurate and has greater destructive power.
Now that he had witnessed the mother insect being pierced by the purple core beam, he immediately gave the order:
"Rodman, order the Fifth Mech Squadron to coordinate with the Second Army's Beast Mech Squadron to shred those striped worms. Don't give them a chance to get close to the attack ship. The liquid they spray is highly corrosive and will damage the warship."
"Yes, Commander."
After receiving the order, Rodman quickly tapped the light screen in front of him to relay the command, then focused his attention back on the main light screen, keeping an eye on the overall battle situation.
Yunxi sat cross-legged atop the main warship in the starry sky, looking at the mother insect whose body had been pierced and who was only half alive. She nodded in satisfaction. At least the Federation army wasn't a useless ally; they could still grasp the key points. She was willing to reduce their casualties to the best of her ability.
Therefore, when the battle was intense, Yunxi would release her divine sense and take charge of picking up people from all directions. She would send any soldier who had a breath left to a nearby warship. She believed that medical officers like Nalan Hang were more professional in providing subsequent treatment, so she would not interfere.
At the same time, Yin Tong and Hei Zhan received messages from various defense lines that someone was secretly helping them rescue people. The soldiers affected by the destruction of mechs and damage to warships were all sent to the medical ship by an unknown force.
Because the assassin acted in time, the warrior drifting in the starry sky was not suffocated immediately, but instead survived.
Yin Tong and Hei Zhan exchanged a glance, both having the same guess: it must have been the Cloud Saint who intervened. Although he didn't completely wipe out the insectoid race, he did save many warriors, for which they were grateful.
Yin Tong frowned and asked:
"Black War, when will the Fifth Army arrive? We can only hold back the surging Zerg right now, and we can't launch an effective counterattack. We need new forces to join us."
Black War was equally anxious; he had even more to think about, but he still replied:
"When I left the main planet, the Fifth Army had already begun to assemble and I believe they will arrive in a day or two. Before they arrive, we must hold these two lines of defense and not let the Zerg leave."
Yin Tong said in a deep voice:
"I know, and I hope they don't miss the opportunity, otherwise they will be the sinners of the entire Federation."
Immediately afterward, Yin Tong turned off the holographic image and disappeared from Hei Zhan's sight.
Nalan Hang, timing it perfectly, handed Yin Tong a vial of nutrient solution and said seriously:
"Commander, you need to enter the hibernation pod and rest for two hours, otherwise your body will have problems."
Yin Tong took the nutrient solution and drank it all in one gulp, but she didn't want to go to the hibernation pod to rest. The battle situation was ever-changing, and many changes could happen even in just two hours.
Yu Meng stepped forward and said:
"Commander Yin, Major General Chu is already capable of handling things independently. You should give him the opportunity to be independent. Besides, Commander Hei Zhan is in charge of the overall situation. Please trust them. If there is anything that Major General Chu cannot handle, I will wake you up immediately. You must rest now."
Yin Tong finally gave in. She was indeed exhausted from the intense command and combat these past few days, and obediently lay down in the hibernation pod.
Nalan Hang brought up the control screen, adjusted all the data, and then left. Yu Meng remained dutifully guarding the door of the treatment room.
Nalan Hang did not leave either. He stayed in the outer room of the treatment room, and brought up his personal computer, quickly logged into the chat group, and sent a private message to "Fleeting Clouds".
While observing the battle, Yunxi also intervened to rescue people. She discovered that an attack ship had bypassed the main battlefield and was trying to evade the two lines of defense to reach the back of the wormhole, seemingly intending to destroy it.
She nodded in satisfaction. These people had finally remembered to destroy the wormhole, cutting off the Zerg's path and solving the problem at its root. This made her feel more at ease leaving.
Just then, the jade pendant at her waist vibrated twice. Her consciousness quickly sank into the space and she received two messages. One was from "Star Trek," who pleaded with her to step in and cover for the Federation army if they were defeated, and said that he would try his best to get what she wanted.
Yunxi simply replied "I understand," and then looked at another message from "Fairy Aura," though this time the other person's tone was somewhat serious.
"Yunyan, you need to get the warships surrounding the wormhole to retreat as soon as possible. The mission to exterminate the Zerg here has taken an unexpected turn. The Zerg have abandoned the plane they have been unable to conquer and are trying to escape to the Yunhai star system where you are through the constructed passage."
Moreover, in order to avoid our tracking, they immediately closed the passage after entering the wormhole. The mission takers here decisively attacked the passage constructed by the Zerg, making the passage unstable. The last batch of Zerg to enter was crushed by the spatial gales.
However, these insectoids are incredibly resilient. In their desperate struggle for survival, they will swarm towards the other end of the passage, creating a surge in numbers within a short period. You must stop them, otherwise the defenses on that side will easily be breached. Once the defenses are broken, intercepting these insects again will be extremely difficult.
Yunxi's teeth ached from watching. She said that the swarming insects were abnormal and were really trying to escape. Now she had to take action, even if she didn't want to. If the insectoids were allowed to scatter throughout this star field, the Yunhai Star System would definitely suffer in the end.
So she replied:
"Okay, I'll keep those bastards out of the outer star system."
Then Yunxi withdrew her divine sense, her figure flashed and appeared in the center of the battlefield, revealing her form. With a light wave of her sleeve, she sent all the warriors from the Yunhai Star System side off the battlefield.
Before anyone could react, she waved her sleeve again, sweeping the Zerg back into the wormhole. Her hands quickly formed hand seals, and a purple array wheel appeared before her. After activation, Yunxi sent it into the wormhole.
The insectoids, blocked by the purple lightning-type immortal energy, began to riot, constantly ramming their bodies against the array wheel, trying to break free. They could sense the familiar crushing force behind them, and if they didn't break out soon, they would be crushed along with the unstable passage.
However, the purple lightning became their biggest obstacle to breaking through. All the insectoids that touched the array wheel would be attacked by the purple lightning. The powerful and domineering purple lightning would not let go of these dimensional trash. In a short while, the weaker insectoids were turned into dust.
However, powerful black beetles still fiercely attacked the formation in order to leave the wormhole as soon as possible.
These images were simultaneously transmitted to the main screens of all the warships, allowing them to once again experience the power of the Cloud Saint.
