Chapter 219: Mantis, Locust, Beetle, and Demonic Moth
At this time, Richemont was less than ten kilometers away from the Dawn Fortress. He immediately accelerated again and headed towards the Dawn Fortress like lightning, leaving a faint trail in the sky wherever he passed.
Could it be Xu Hao from the Chuancheng Fortress, leading the army to come again? If this is true, I must teach him a lesson this time! Thinking of Xu Hao's face, Li Feng's anger burned again. This time, I must avenge my previous shame!
After obtaining the blue colloid particles, his body evolved again, and he also obtained the silver colonization suit. Now, Richemont is full of confidence.
He wanted to smash Xu Hao's head with his fist covered with brand new bone armor!
In less than a minute, Richemont had already arrived above the Dawn Fortress, but the scene before him was completely beyond his expectations.
The turrets and firing points in the fortifications of the Dawn Fortress kept spewing flames and making thunderous noises. The huge cannons did not disappoint their size, and a fireball with a diameter of tens of meters would appear immediately after each shot, and a huge crater would appear after the smoke cleared.
However, the target of these firepower was not the human army in Chuancheng Fortress. It could even be said that there was not a single human hair on the other side.
Bugs! A black mass of bugs! They were everywhere, covering the whole mountain and the whole land!
The ones attacking Dawn Fortress were actually huge numbers of mutant Zerg, almost hundreds of thousands or even millions!
There were too many bugs, and Dawn Fortress was unable to launch an effective attack and could only adopt a completely defensive strategy. It can be seen that all the fortifications and turrets in the entire Dawn Fortress were closed, and there were constant flashes of fire, and it was obvious that the people inside were also attacking frantically.
Seeing this, Li Feng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of . I don't know if it was Er Gouzi who issued the order for full defense, but when facing the Zerg all over the mountains, this strategy is the most effective and can minimize casualties.
However, there were so many Zergs attacking that most of the turrets and fortifications were already covered with dense swarms of them.
At the same time, these Zergs kept spitting highly corrosive acid at the gun barrels and the outer walls of the fortifications. Although the building materials used by No. 3 were extremely strong, they had already rusted a large area under the corrosion of these acids. I believe that as long as these insects continue to spit acid, in a few hours at most, the first fortification with the outer wall corroded will appear, followed by the second, the third... The humans hiding inside will surely be eaten into pieces by the insects!
When facing the Zerg attack, the Dawn Fortress's killer Zerg Riders were immediately useless. After all, in a sense, the Zerg Riders that had been transformed by the Zerg Hive were actually humanoid Zergs. This war, to some extent, could be described as a fight between the Zergs...
With this strange thought in his mind, Li Feng immediately began to concentrate on observing the fighting swarm of insects.
He was not in a hurry to fight, but wanted to find out the insect king who was controlling the entire insect swarm.
In such a large-scale insect swarm, there must be more than one or two insect kings. There may be four or five insect kings controlling the direction of the swarm at the same time!
Sure enough, Li Feng observed for a while and immediately found five points where the swarms were relatively dense. In these five places, the types of insects were relatively uniform. The innermost ones were all heavy-armored insects, such as giant beetles, rhinoceros beetles, etc., and the outer ones were some insects with strong attack power and fast movements, such as mantises and locusts. There were also hundreds of huge wasps and swarms of large mosquitoes hovering in the sky, alert at any time.
In the center of these insects are five insect kings with rather strange appearances!
After a little identification, Lifeng immediately found two mantis kings, a locust king, a beetle king, and a hawk moth covered with thick scales.
Obviously, these guys are the nerve center and core of the entire hive.
Although the Zerg's swarm attack is extremely powerful, it is simply the most terrifying and fastest of all races, but it also has a huge weakness. This weakness is that thousands of ordinary Zerg must be controlled by the Zerg King to form a swarm. Otherwise, those ordinary Zerg can easily be lured or even dispersed.
Therefore, as long as they can deal with their insect king, they will also be able to deal with the entire insect swarm.
However, this weakness is relative. Many times, some people would rather face the overwhelming number of ordinary Zergs than the Zerg King.
Because the fighting power of the Insect King itself is extremely strong. Moreover, the Insect King never appears alone. The ones guarding the Insect King are all elite Zergs of the entire swarm! It can be said that they are the most powerful part! Moreover, those elite guarding Zergs are all fearless and ready to sacrifice their lives at any time under the control of the Insect King.
A Zerg King can be said to be the brain of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Zergs. Of course, no effort will be spared to protect the brain.
This can be understood by thinking about the huge scene when Richemont just met Muqi, and the heroic scene when 800 Zerg were annihilated in the armored cluster of Chuancheng Fortress when they were being chased .
Suddenly, Li Feng discovered a problem, that is, the two mantis insect kings among these insect kings seemed very familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere... After thinking for a moment, Li Feng immediately remembered that these two mantis insect kings were the two mantises under Li Feng's command!
Lifeng even remembered that the name of one of the mantis kings was "Strong Saw". When Lifeng and Muqi were escaping from the Chuancheng Fortress Armored Group Army, the two mantis kings led the remaining 800 heavy armored beetles and resolutely rushed towards the enemy. It was truly a tragic and heroic act of a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
In the end, the two mantis kings and eight hundred heavy-armored beetles all disappeared in the rolling steel torrent and never appeared again, which made Lifeng sigh very sad.
Originally, Li Feng thought that they had all died in the battle, but he did not expect that the two mantis kings were still alive and appeared in the insect tide attacking the Dawn Fortress!
What the hell is going on!? Don't they know Muzi is in there?
Li Feng was originally preparing to kill a lot of people, but after seeing these two mantis insect kings, he immediately decided to get to the bottom of it first.
With his wings folded, Li Feng dived towards where a mantis king was.
When they found Li Feng approaching, some elite flying insects circling around the mantis king immediately let out a shrill cry and pounced towards Li Feng. For them, anyone who dared to approach their king was definitely an enemy!
However, before these insects approached Lifeng, they were immediately disturbed by Lifeng's thinking field and instantly lost their ability to make independent judgments. They could only circle in place and dared not approach Lifeng again. Because the hint given by Lifeng made these insects mistakenly believe that Lifeng was also an extremely powerful insect king, even more powerful than their original king!
In the simple social structure of the Zerg, the concept of hierarchy and barrier awareness is even stronger, it can be said that it is engraved in the genes. Therefore, wherever Lifeng passed, the soldier insects immediately retreated and even made respectful gestures.
The mantis king who was heavily protected below had already noticed something was wrong the moment Li Feng broke into his thinking field. He understood that a powerful enemy had appeared!
He immediately shrank his mind field directly to the hundreds of heavy-armored beetles beside him, firmly controlling them and waiting to rush forward and tear Richemont apart at any time. In fact, this method of shrinking the mind field to strengthen control and sacrificing the number of controlled people to increase the intensity of control was taught to him by Mu Qi.
What surprised the mantis king was that the opponent's speed was so fast. In just a few seconds, he couldn't even catch a glimpse of the opponent's figure. That person had already broken through layers of defense and came in front of him!
However, the Zerg 's innate fighting mentality made the mantis king's combat limbs move according to instinct. The bone saws on its two forelimbs had already drawn two cold rays, blocking all space and slashing towards the opponent!
"Bang!" With a crisp sound, the two bone saws of the mantis insect king chopped on the opponent's left arm, but could not penetrate any further, as if they were cutting on diamond.
The Mantis King was startled, but heard the other party say anxiously: "Qiang Saw, it's me!"
"Mr. Richemont!"
