Chapter 582: Legion Engagement (6)

~6 min read 1,158 words

Inside the Hatchery.

The current Dominator Alien is very agitated; there is aerial fire support, armored unit cover, and even the artillery coverage area is slowly pushing forward.

Just as the Dominator Alien was shaking its antennae in agitation, the antennae on its head suddenly stopped moving as it received a message from its mother.

"My child, how is your progress there?"

"Mother, these Humans are truly different from before now. They are currently counterattacking, and it is very difficult to block their pace of advance."

The Dominator Alien hurriedly reported the situation here to Yiweier.

"Are there 10 tall Humans wearing blue and white Armor clearing the way for the Human soldiers behind?"

The Dominator Alien was stunned; it hadn't even said anything yet, so how did Mother already know?

"Yes, Mother, what should I do? It won't be long before this Human unit reaches me!"

Soon, Yiweier's message was transmitted to the Dominator Alien.

"Have you deployed the first-generation Black-Winged Aliens and Crystal Death Servants into the battlefield?"

"I deployed them during the previous attack, but I am not continuing to deploy them into the battlefield now."

"Very good, my child. One of your brothers has already been killed. In the memory fragments transmitted back before his death, there were not only Humans in blue and white Armor, but also Humans wearing silver-white Armor. Now our understanding of Human strength has deviated; take them and withdraw from the battlefield first."

Upon hearing Yiweier's words, the Dominator Alien replied immediately.

"Yes! Mother!"

After ending the communication with Yiweier, the Dominator Alien immediately summoned the Carrier Aliens, let the Hatchery increase the production speed of cannon-fodder Zerg, and sent instructions to those Black-Winged Aliens and Crystal Death Servants waiting in the Hatchery.

It let the Burrowing Aliens clear the way in front and took these children to quickly leave the Hatchery.

Before leaving, the Dominator Alien thought that these Hatcheries would soon be destroyed by those Humans, so it gathered the plasma within the Hatcheries and set the Hatcheries to enter a self-destruct countdown.

This Human unit has strong combat power; if these dozens of Hatcheries could cause them huge damage, that would be best, but if not, it didn't matter; after all, these Hatcheries could not escape the fate of being destroyed anyway.

When disconnecting from the Hatcheries, the Dominator Alien could even feel the explosive fluctuations of artillery fire near the Hatcheries.

On the battlefield at this moment, Fuderi looked at the dozens of Yixing Fuhua Chao whose outlines were gradually appearing in the dark green fog.

"Strange, why haven't those pitch-black Aliens appeared again?"

Fuderi muttered to himself, using the Chainaxe in his hand to split the head of a Death Servant Alien from bottom to top, dividing it into two halves.

A War Dog Space Marine following beside Fuderi heard Fuderi's whisper and echoed.

"Indeed, if they don't come out again, we are going to raze their home."

Soon, the Insect Tide became sparse in number, and eventually, no new Zerg appeared; the 87th Corps Advance Force began to clear the remaining Zerg.

In the dark green fog, the tracks of the Leman Russ Tank crushed the insect shells all over the ground, emitting crisp explosions.

Fuderi's MK2 Power Armor shimmered in the smoke, and the teeth of the Chainaxe were still dripping with the thick green blood of the Zerg.

"All units, attention, advance in a fan formation!"

Xu Jundu climbed out of the hatch of a Chimera Armored Vehicle and issued the latest order.

"Flame, clear the Zerg Juntan!"

After receiving the order, the soldiers holding flamethrowers sprayed flames at the Juntan still wriggling under their feet; these Juntan were curled and burst by the burning.

From time to time, Carrier Aliens hiding under the Juntan were burned out by the flames; after crawling out of the Juntan, they were also swallowed by the scorching flames, their bodies crackling as they burned.

"Three o'clock direction!"

Three Death Servant Aliens charged toward Fuderi at the very front; seeing this, the corners of Fuderi's mouth under the MK2 Helmet rose slightly.

Picking me to be a cushion before death? Interesting.

Fuderi activated the Chainaxe in his hand and swung his right hand violently; the Chainaxe had already preemptively hacked into the chest cavity of one of the Death Servant Aliens, and the splashing blood and flesh splattered onto the MK2 Power Armor that was already stained with quite a bit of green Zerg blood.

The War Dog Space Marine beside Fuderi raised his Bolter and fired rapidly, a barrage of bolts tearing the other two Death Servant Aliens to shreds.

Green blood seeped out from the cracks in their fissured carapaces, corroding the ground and emitting bursts of white smoke.

Just as the 87th Advance Force was about to approach the Hatchery, the ground near the Hatchery began to tremble violently, and the surface of the nearest Hatchery cracked open with countless pores, spraying acidic mucus.

By the time the frequency of acid spraying gradually decreased, Fuderi saw that the flesh-and-blood structure, which was originally nearly a hundred meters high, was collapsing on its own.

Countless blood-vessel-like pipes burst from the base of the Nest, and unformed insect eggs floated in the dark green slurry.

The facial display of the armored exoskeleton suddenly popped up a high-temperature alarm—the Hive Core was brewing some kind of biological fusion reaction, and the reading curve was climbing at a terrifying speed.

"Find cover! Watch out for evasion!"

Fuderi's warning was drowned out by the deafening roar.

That Hatchery exploded like a lit powder keg, and tens of thousands of bone spurs flew out mixed with blue plasma.

Fortunately, they had not yet approached the Hatchery, so there were no major casualties.

Successive explosions sounded, and dozens of Hatcheries all exploded.

When the aftermath of the explosion gradually subsided, the abnormal values displayed on Fuderi's helmet began to fall back.

Fuderi kicked away the semi-melted Zerg remains at his feet and found that the remains of every Hatchery were repeating the same self-destruct program.

The thick dark green fog surged in the aftermath of the plasma explosion; Fuderi looked at the self-destructed Hatcheries and said slowly.

"It seems that the Dominator Alien here has already run away!"

When the smoke and dust from the explosion dissipated and the dark green fog had mostly cleared, Fuderi and a War Dog Space Marine beside him arrived at the location of the first Hatchery remains that had self-destructed.

"Clear the remains of the Yixing Fuhua Chao! See if there are any energy crystal blocks mentioned by the Emperor here."

Fuderi issued an order to Xu Jundu on the communication channel.

"Yes! Lord Astartes!"

Soon, a group of Human Alliance soldiers trotted to Fuderi, and the leading officer saluted Fuderi and said.

"Lord Astartes!"

"Hmm, clear this area and see if there are any purple crystal blocks left by the Aliens."

"Yes!"
