End of the World: My Items Can Be Upgraded Infinitely.

Chapter 319: War breaks out, unexpected third-order Zerg
"How long will it take to repair it?"

Lin Feng asked.

Now that the war is imminent, there is a risk of conflict and direct escalation at every moment.

Lin Feng needs to lead his decapitation team into combat status and carry out infiltration missions.

As the flagship captain finished his announcement, Long Yi opened his mouth and said:
"It will only take a few minutes. Mainly check that the functions and tissue structures of the colony are functioning normally. There is no need to worry."

As a high-tech and sophisticated collection, biological colonization equipment is like a stealth fighter among humans. Before and after each mission, it must be carefully inspected and maintained to avoid any accidents during high-intensity combat.

At this time, the entire Golden Fleet began to split up according to the arrangements of the combat command and commander-in-chief Chen Yanyan, and arrived at their respective posts in turn.

As early as the Jincheng base, there were plans and preparations for the expedition to the south, and for attacking and retaking cities along the way.

This includes research on the strength levels of the local Zerg, as well as offensive strategies based on terrain.

After the Battle of Hangzhou ended, the command center, which received the news from Minzhou, immediately focused on Mingcheng and conducted detailed research on several nearby suburbs and county towns.

This time, the entire Zerg race in Minzhou, including five third-stage mid-stage queens and the Zerg swarms under their command, totals as many as one million!

Among them, there are as many as four or five hundred thousand combat guard soldier insects alone. The huge number of first-level black-backed insects can cover the entire Ming City.

The urban area simply cannot accommodate so many insect swarms, so they are naturally scattered in the five counties or suburbs surrounding Mingcheng.

The suburbs of Sha County in the northeast are one of them. It is also the place with the largest number of troops and the most densely populated insect swarms, except for the city center of Ming City.

In addition, there are also a large number of second-level Zerg under the Five Emperors Alliance.

It is estimated that there are tens of thousands of mantis flies, a second-level swarm.

Includes most tiger spine bugs and warrior hunter bugs.

At this moment, there are less than two thousand second-level awakeners in the Savior Army, and more than half of them are new members of the regiment who have just been promoted to the second level.

The gap in the number of first-level warriors between the two sides is more than ten times, and the comparison of the backbone forces of the second-level warriors is an exaggerated ratio of five to one.

Therefore, the only advantage of the Salvation Army lies in the advanced weapons and equipment.

But even so, it still takes a lot of time to attack the center of Ming City and tackle one tough problem after another.

From the suburbs of Sha County to the center of Mingcheng, the distance from east to west is 30 kilometers. Every kilometer of advance results in tens of thousands of artillery shells being fired and considerable casualties.

The most important thing is actually the time consumption.

The Salvation Army lacked supplies, especially food and medicine, and could not withstand the long-term consumption of the war.

Minzhou’s location is the most awkward, especially since the battle takes place in the central Mingcheng.

Starting from the Jincheng base, the only way to reach the southern part of Zhejiang Province by water is to travel two to three hundred kilometers. Although sea transportation can reach Minzhou directly, it also has to cross the large hilly and mountainous area behind the coastline.

The roads and railways that had been built were either completely blocked by fleeing convoys or destroyed by the expansion of the Zerg, and the only way to get there was to cross one mountain after another.

As for Wucheng, the support from the United Iron and Steel Group could not arrive in a short period of time because there was no direct river access.

Only when we reach the next target, Yuezhou, can we deliver it all the way via the Dongting River.

At that time, Lin Feng will also send a large number of wounded soldiers from the Savior Army to Wucheng. Among them, the second-level awakeners will be able to help Zhang Yurou to successfully take over the Ganglian Group.

As for now, Lin Feng and the Savior Army’s top priority is to win quickly and decisively.

In order to avoid being slowed down by the Zerg in Minzhou, which would double the pressure on their own logistics, the late-stage Zerg queens born in Dianzhou and Guizhou would also move into Yuezhou.

Intercept Wucheng’s support to Yuezhou.

This put Lin Feng in a dilemma and forced him to start the decisive battle ahead of time.

So the key is now. We must capture Mingcheng, Minzhou within three days, and then move quickly to seize the northern part of Yuezhou, establish contact with Wucheng, and establish a temporary Yuezhou base.

At this time, as the outside arrangements were completed, the flagship in the rear, the golden battleship, fired heavy battleship artillery after heavy battleship...

The prelude to the war has begun.

Artillery shells rained down on the urban area of ​​Sha County, defeating the swarm of black-backed insects that were gathering there.

At the same time, in the front, the tanks responsible for the attack line, led by the dreadnoughts, slowly drove into the city.

Now the Zerg Queen has learned her lesson and will no longer launch surprise attacks on the plains and hillsides in the suburbs. Doing so will only result in her becoming a dead soul under artillery fire, a meaningless death charge.

So right now, the Zerg, under the remote command and dispatch of the Queen Mother, are all hiding in the urban area, taking cover in buildings and sewers, and engaging in brutal and difficult street fighting with the Savior Army.

Even if the Golden Fleet was hit by artillery fire and the entire city was razed to the ground, the Zerg could use the underground tunnels to continue fighting and launching sneak attacks with the Saviors in the ruins.

At this moment, the strengthened and modified level 34 colonial mecha has returned to the golden battleship. Lin Feng came to the command tower to check the battlefield situation.

After the first round of bombardment, with tens of thousands of armor-piercing shells firing, the smoke cleared and the situation was not optimistic.

Chen Yanyan frowned slightly and said:

"The Zerg had been prepared for a long time. It is estimated that after the battle of Hangzhou City broke out, they decided to have a decisive battle with the Salvation Army in Ming City."

"So these urban areas have been reinforced by the red beetle swarms using the coagulant's saliva. The armor-piercing cannon can only barely penetrate them, leaving a hole half a meter in size."

Lin Feng nodded, his expression solemn.

As a worker insect in the Zerg race, the red beetle is responsible for collecting food and raising offspring, as well as building insect nests and reinforcing wormholes.

Especially the top and bottom of the mother nest, which have actually been reinforced by some kind of biological coagulant secreted by the red beetles, so the members of the second-order regiment can only use armor-piercing cannons in moderation underground.

Firing a few armor-piercing shells will not directly destroy the stability of the hive structure.

However, just in case, Lin Feng still tried his best to let them use electromagnetic cannons. It is better to use armor-piercing cannons as little as possible unless it is absolutely necessary.

Otherwise, they would not have specially formed a guard regiment, armed with tiger-tooth chainsaw swords, to fight against tiger-spine worms in the bottomless insect nest.

Today, this coagulant is used on the surface of the earth, relying on the original urban buildings of humans to build the Zerg defense line in Minzhou...

It became the first problem standing in the way of the Salvation Army.

Seeing Lin Feng's heavy expression, Chen Yanyan added:

"Although the Zerg have reinforced their buildings and turned them into fortifications, they can all be destroyed with a few more rounds. In addition, the Dreadnoughts and the Second Order Battle Group also have multiple electromagnetic cannons that can penetrate the fortifications and kill the Zerg inside."

"It's just advancing time, it might be much slower..."

Lin Feng shook his head:
"What we lack most now is time. The original plan was to push forward in one go. Now we have only a reinforced bridgehead, which has interrupted the rhythm of the attack. It will be difficult to reach the urban area of ​​Mingcheng before noon..."

"If we can't distract the attention of the mother queens underground, our decapitation plan will not be able to proceed smoothly."

After a pause, Lin Feng slowly continued:

"Let's put the suburbs of Sha County aside for now..." "Arrange Liu Yi and his men to lead their second-order battle group, and with the cooperation of the dreadnoughts, bypass the suburbs first and penetrate into the urban area of ​​Mingcheng from the left and right!"

"At the same time, let the anti-aircraft gene regiment go deep into the battlefield and fly over Mingcheng to carry out bombing and support."

"At the same time, arrange for Zhou Di to run around in Ming City, go down from time to time, and kill the insect swarms in the tunnels..."

"Give the Zerg the illusion that we are eager to attack the Zerg nest from the surface."

“This will also relieve pressure on frontline suburbs.”

Chen Yanyan nodded, understanding that Lin Feng wanted some of his third-level subordinates to lead the second-level battle group to attract the attention of the Five Emperors Alliance.

So as to prepare for the real killer, sneaking silently into the deep of the mother's nest.

As the order was issued, four dreadnought fleets were separated from the Golden Fleet, taking away half of the ships...

Lin Feng also came to the stern of the golden battleship, boarded the modified colonial mecha, and notified Long Yi, Shen Jie, and Liu Yueqi to take their positions.

Two minutes later, four people and two biological colonization suits appeared on the back of a hillside outside the city.

"Can the battle of Mingcheng be completely ended within one day?"

"It all depends on whether our decapitation operation of raiding the mother nest can be completed as scheduled!"

Lin Feng opened the cabin door and spoke slowly:
"Shen Jie, Liu Yueqi, the two of you must deal with at least one of the mid-stage queen mothers to reduce the pressure on the front battlefield."

"Lingyi, with your strength, you are enough to restrain one of them, so there will be three left."

"In my current state, I can kill one of them in the first place. As for the other two, even if I summon the divine domain to descend, they will be dead without the help of other queen mothers!"

"When the time comes, everyone will act accordingly!"

As he spoke, Lin Feng pulled out the enhanced version of the level 32 Hunter King Chainsaw Sword that was across the waist of the colonial mecha, which was a full ten meters long.

The attribute damage of wireless cutting is as high as 12,500 points per second. Even a mid-stage perfect Zerg Queen cannot withstand its one-second slash.

With excessive damage, a ten-meter-long sword blade, and the fourth-order thousand-ton power of the colonial mecha, Lin Feng is confident that when he launches a surprise attack, he can instantly kill one of the five queens before they can react.

In this way, the number of people on both sides was equalized.

Later, even when he was fighting one against two, Lin Feng was able to handle it with ease and kill them one after another.

After arranging the specific tasks, the strongest team in the Savior Army immediately took action.

Led by Longyi, who was piloting the Queen Mother, he and the other three went deep into the Zerg hinterland and arrived at the northern suburbs of Mingcheng.

At this time, heavy artillery fire could be heard coming from the northeastern part of the city. It was the second-level regiment led by Liu Yi, who was engaging in a fierce battle with the Zerg in Mingcheng.

At the same time, the insect swarms stationed in the four surrounding counties began to recall their troops one after another to provide support in the direction of Mingcheng to ensure the safety of the city center.

This put the second-order regiment in a heavy encirclement, but fortunately they had the fleet to rely on, and each person had an armor-piercing cannon or an electromagnetic cannon. The powerful firepower was able to suppress the fierce offensive of the Zerg swarm.

With them attracting the Zerg's attention, Lin Feng and his three companions successfully entered the underground insect nest from the quiet suburban wormhole.

Longyi released his spiritual power to cover up the aura of the colonial mecha and Liu Yueqi to avoid being discovered by the Zerg Queen.

As for the low-level Zerg along the way, they were already trembling with fear when they met Shen Jie again, and Ling Yi only needed to use the power of his artistic conception slightly to make them ignore everyone.

In this way, we arrived two hundred meters underground.

We are about to enter the location of the second-level insect nest.

This is the middle part of the entire hive, and it is also the construction site of the hatching nest. A large number of second-order Zergs have been sent here to stay on standby to ensure the safety of the hatching pyramid.

Because the second-order Zergs gathered here, especially the huge second-order tiger-spine worms, they blocked the passage to the mother nest deep in the Zerg nest...

Lingyi drove the Queen Mother and began to sense the structure and route in the hive.

Soon they found a narrow path for the red beetles and black-backed beetles. It was only more than ten meters wide and could accommodate more than two black-backed beetles at the same time and allow them to enter and exit freely.

This road is also a low-level insect swarm passage leading deep underground, responsible for cleaning the mother nest and delivering food to the queen.

It also has a ventilation function.

Therefore, based on the aura of these low-level insects, Long Yi concluded that they were not far from their destination:

"Everyone, try to restrain your aura and stay within ten meters of me. I want to reduce the range of my spiritual power and increase its shielding effect as much as possible."

"From now on, everything should be done with gestures, and try not to make any noise!"

After saying that, everyone nodded.

The few people who had fought on the ground several times were actually very familiar with these things and followed behind Long Yi very skillfully.

Until we went down again, walking nearly 400 meters...

A strong and heavy breath hits me in the face.

Suddenly, even the low-level insect swarms moving nearby had to crawl forward with difficulty under this pressure.

Long Yi frowned slightly and used his spiritual power to convey to everyone:

"When multiple mid-stage queen mothers gather together and release their spiritual power, this effect will be achieved. Especially the closer you are to the mother nest, the stronger this feeling of being suppressed will become..."

"Once I start, I'll release the power of my own state of mind, and it will be much easier."

Lin Feng, who was sitting in the driver's seat, nodded silently.

He knew very well that with such a lineup of queen mothers, an ordinary second-order regiment, or even a peak second-order genetic warrior, would find it difficult to withstand the five times spiritual power added up by five mid-stage queen mothers.

And this spiritual pressure is infinitely close to that of the third-stage late Queen Mother!

As the group continued to go deeper, they carefully shuttled among the crawling swarms of insects and finally arrived at the final destination ten minutes later.

The deepest part of the Mingcheng Zerg's nest is a large mother nest located seven or eight hundred meters underground.

Lin Feng took a deep breath, gestured, and prepared for action.

At this moment, the Queen Mother on the side suddenly raised her arm and interrupted everyone's preparation.

At the same time, the voice of Long Yi rang in the minds of the three people:
"No, the aura inside is too strong, and there are more than five third-level Zerg auras..."

"There are other third-order Zerg!"

The third-level king spiny worm appears!
