Chapter 563: Zerg VS Saiboke (2)
Seeing the combat data transmitted back by the Warrior Spirit in the Shared Consciousness Network, A-27S's pupils constricted slightly, and he edited his analysis into the combat log.
【Facing enemies with formidable melee attacks, the Warrior Spirit's performance is not ideal. The next step should be to continue strengthening the soldiers' melee capabilities and increase the frequency of close-quarters combat experiments.】
After saving the combat log, A-27S cast his gaze back onto the battlefield.
At this moment, the Warrior Spirit had already begun a targeted offensive against the Crystal Death-Servants, and while the Insect Tide had already engaged the Saiboke soldiers, they were blocked by the formation composed of Saiboke soldiers, with the constantly slashing High-Frequency Blades harvesting the lives of the fragile Zerg.
Even some of the more powerful Zerg found it difficult to shake the formation composed of Saiboke.
The carapaces of two Crystal Death-Servants rippled simultaneously, and a21r1's arm transformed into an Energy Snare, seizing the opportunity to pierce into the throat joint of one of them.
Energy Circuits emerged on the surface of the snare, forcibly disrupting the bio-plasma within the Crystal Death-Servant, and he backhanded the overloaded energy into the eye socket of the other Death-Servant.
With a surge of energy, the two crystal husks melted into entangled, glowing fluid within the torrent of energy.
"Hmm, the combat data has been collected; it is time to end this combat experiment."
Seeing that the objectives of this combat experiment had all been completed, A-27S issued the command to end the battle, and the Shared Consciousness Network transmitted the order.
The Saiboke soldiers on the battlefield activated the High-Frequency Blades on their respective right arms, their bodies began to charge, and they prepared to clear the battlefield.
The remaining Zerg swarm launched a final charge, but this charge was meaningless and would only cause this land to be more deeply polluted.
When the first Saiboke soldier leaped into the swarm, his Visual Enhancement System dyed the world a cold blue.
Low-Temperature Plasma Streams erupted from his exoskeleton joints, and every swing of his blade precisely harvested the lives of the Zerg.
The kill count in the combat log refreshed continuously: 87... 136... 204...
A-27S watched the friend-or-foe identification signals on the tactical interface; the light blue friendly array remained intact, while the scarlet Zerg markers were being extinguished at a rate of thousands per second.
When the carapace of the last Spike Bug turned to charcoal in the energy beam, A-27S watched the scanner display that the Zerg biomass concentration on the surface had dropped to 0.003%.
"Cleanup complete, beginning the wrap-up, activate the Giant Soldier to begin eliminating the Zerg Incubation Nest."
Behind the Saiboke formation, the pupils of Giant Soldier 21 lit up again, and a torrent of energy began to condense a deep blue light in its chest, locking onto the Hatchery hundreds of kilometers away.
The Saiboke Giant Soldier began to move, the earth trembling with every step taken, and Giant Soldier 21 began to rush rapidly toward the Zerg Incubation Nest.
The Dominator Bug inside the Zerg Incubation Nest felt that the Insect Tide it had sent out had actually been completely wiped out! And the Saiboke soldiers it had destroyed had pitifully little biomass on them.
"Oh no! That giant iron man has started moving! I must evacuate as soon as possible!"
The tentacles on the Dominator Bug's head shook constantly, and just as the Dominator Bug was controlling the Carrier Bugs inside the Hatchery to take it away, the Hatchery above the Dominator Bug was instantly covered by a heat wave.
The top of the Hatchery above the Dominator Bug was sliced open by a sword, the top of the Hatchery was flipped over directly by a powerful force, and the air blast blew the Dominator Bug away directly.
"Zerg Dominator Bug discovered, requesting capture plan."
b26k5, who was controlling Giant Soldier 21, saw the Dominator Bug pinned down by the air current and unable to move, and transmitted the scene he saw back to the Commander via the Shared Consciousness Network.
"Request approved."
Having received the order, b26k5 controlled the Giant Soldier's arm to slowly reach toward the Dominator Bug.
When the Dominator Bug saw that giant palm reaching toward it, it still wanted to struggle and escape.
But it did not expect that just as its body began to move, a powerful suction force was generated in the palm of the hand, sucking it along with the other Carrier Bugs beside it into the palm.
Seeing the capture success notification appear before his eyes, b26k5 controlled Giant Soldier 21 to slowly stand up, and uploaded the combat log and experimental data of this battle for Giant Soldier 21 back to the Shared Consciousness Network.
The battlefield was covered with the corpses of Zerg, and the Saiboke soldiers were cleaning the battlefield as usual, recycling every part that could be used.
"Finished sweeping Zone 3 yet?"
Captain c103t kicked away a blocking Zerg severed limb, green slime still sticking to his mask.
"Old rules, put the useful stuff in the blue canisters, throw the rotten meat into the synthesizer. Even if it's that rotten meat, after removing certain toxins, those CPU Generators can still eat it, and the cost can be reduced quite a bit."
The Saiboke soldiers who had exited combat mode also had a change in the tone of their speech.
When entering combat, Saiboke soldiers would disconnect from the Daily CPU used in daily life and connect to the Combat Module, but the Combat Module consumed a huge amount of energy, which is why the current Saiboke soldiers had added a Daily CPU to effectively reduce costs.
"Captain! This pile of broken armor shards contains a lot of energy!"
d279y was using a mechanical hand to rummage through the remains of a Crystal Death-Servant when he was suddenly sprayed in the face with slime.
"...... This Zerg still farts even after dying! Must record this."
d279y's words caused a burst of electronically synthesized laughter to ring out in the shared channel.
In the distance, a fire suddenly "boomed" and exploded; Giant Soldier 21 had blown half of the Insect Hive to smithereens.
"b26k5, watch it, you jerk!"
c842p was passing by carrying an energy canister and dodged the flying chunks of meat.
"The armor shard that flew off last time scratched my newly sprayed paint job..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a "clatter" as some Saiboke soldier threw an entire Zerg spine into the shredder.
"This thing is like a twisted dough stick; the scanner can't even tell if it's a spine or an intestine..."
"Who cares!"
c46q8 directly 【handled】 a Zerg corpse, the High-Frequency Blade in his hand cutting through the Zerg corpse rapidly; suddenly, he pulled a glowing intestine out from inside the body.
"Anyway, the CPU Generators aren't picky eaters...... Hey! Look at what I found? Should I keep this glowing internal organ?"
A hint of disgust appeared on c842p's stiff face, and he said in a stiff tone.
"c46q8, seriously, that joke isn't funny at all. Sometimes I really wonder, what exactly did your Daily CPU watch during the generation phase? It makes you keep telling these cold jokes. I suggest you replace your Daily CPU after we go back."
"Really? I've always felt this CPU is quite good."
"Alright, stuff that internal organ into Processing Canister No. 3."
c103t kicked the carbonized carapace of a Zerg, and a warning suddenly popped up on his mask.
"Attention everyone! There is still a life signal underground in the Southeast District!"
Twenty High-Frequency Blades popped out from their arms simultaneously, only to dig up a Swift Bug missing three legs that had been crushed halfway by the remains of a Tank Bug.
d279y poked the body of the Swift Bug with the tip of his blade.
"Does this count as loot or a pet?"
"It counts as a sample."
D355R pulled out a processing canister that looked like a vacuum cleaner and, with a "slurp" sound, sucked the Zerg inside.
"The guys in the lab are going to have some fun tonight."
By the time the last processing canister was sealed in its box, the sky had already turned a dim yellow.
Giant Soldier No. 21 stood tall on the earth, its shadow stretched long.
D279Y finished the work at hand and spoke in the Shared Consciousness Network channel.
"Shall we take a guess at the scale of the Zerg we'll encounter next time?"
The channel instantly exploded with all sorts of guesses, until C103T's electronic voice rang out: "If you're done playing, get back to the Transport Ship! Whoever arrives last is responsible for scrubbing the Giant Soldier's feet tonight!"
