“Boom!” The missiles fell beside them, the scorching heat, the explosive shrapnel, the immense force, none of these managed to impede their advance!
Even though some were blasted over or killed, more black beetles continued their charge!
Ordinary artillery and missiles no longer had any effect in stopping them!
Some black beetles reached the steel wall, their mechanical hammers striking fiercely down. The black beetles lifted their strong forelimbs to block the mechanical hammers, spewing out a large amount of blue-green acid. The steel was corroded by this strong acid, melting away like snow in boiling water!
The black beetles snapped the mechanical arms with force!
“Boom, boom, boom!” Several shells hit it at the same time, blasting it tens of meters away.
“Is it dead?” People looked towards the pile of corpses, seeing that the black beetle had been turned over, its body oozing pus, yet it was not dead; it rolled over and continued its charge.
“It can’t be killed ?”
“What terrifying vitality!”
“The strong acid of the black beetles is more corrosive than that of green beetles, and they have more of it, too. The steel wall couldn’t hold them back!”
“Their pincers and mouthparts destroy steel and concrete as easily as crushing foam!”
“What are we going to do?” The citizens were already anxious.
Soldiers within the steel wall felt an immense weight too, looking at those gigantic beetles, dozens of meters long and several meters high, *anyone would feel suffocated*.
“Abandon the steel wall, carpet bombing with missiles is the only choice!” Harvy shouted in the war room, though his voice couldn’t reach the Xuanwu Command Hall.
“Prepare the electromagnetic gun!” Qin Peng ordered, “Target, black beetles! Fire!”
A hundred already-installed electromagnetic guns were loaded and ready to fire as soon as the command was given. They immediately activated the electromagnetic cannons.
The shells were continuously accelerated within the electromagnetic guns, with the induction coils propelling the massive projectiles, granting them ultra-long-range acceleration like a railgun.
A single shell was infused with enormous kinetic energy, and in space, it might have reached sub-light speed!
On Blue Star, it also achieved extremely high speeds, the kinetic energy it carried could blast a huge hole in fifty meters of steel!
Of course, the shell of a black beetle couldn’t be as thick as fifty meters of steel!
An electromagnetic shell first struck a nearby gigantic black beetle, with a tremendous explosion even more violent than a missile’s!
If it weren’t for soundproofing layers and earplugs, the eardrums of nearby people would have ruptured!
“What happened?” Everyone looked at the black beetle again, surprised to the point where their mouths hung open!
The gargantuan black beetle that was unstoppable moments ago had its shell, several times thicker than an armored vehicle or tank, completely shattered by this shot!
The hit area revealed an enormous cavity, with all biological structures inside, shell, skeleton, organs, and flesh, all vanished without a trace!
The surrounding parts of its body were blasted into pieces!
It was dead beyond dead, blasted into bits with one shot!
“Did the black beetle just get annihilated in a second?” Witnessing this, Harvy, Jonah, and others jumped to their feet.
Ishii Koji and Jin Chenghuan were even more stupefied, the black beetles that easily breached their defense lines, the terror that made them abandon the city, were reduced to rubble with a single shot!
“What kind of weapon is that?” A general from Tianzhu shouted.
“The steel wall is equipped with this kind of weapon?” The Bai ying leader asked around, “Do you know what weapon that is?”
Everyone shook their heads, saying, “We don’t have any intel yet!”
“A single shot and it’s dead!” Elsewhere, leaders were discussing this weapon.
As the first electromagnetic gun fired, more shells bombarded out, each electromagnetic shot could turn a black beetle into dust!
The previously aggressive black beetle army was now nothing but waiting-to-be-shattered porcelain vases in the face of these electromagnetic guns!
“Did you all see that? I just got the news that the shots fired earlier were from the electromagnetic guns developed by Dr. He Xingzhou and his team!” Shen Bingbing reported excitedly, “This is a kinetic energy weapon. Its power can obliterate beetles instantly!”
“With electromagnetic guns, the beetles can’t break through the steel wall!”
Hearing Shen Bingbing’s explanation, everyone was thrilled, “So it was electromagnetic guns, such power is like heavenly thunder!”
“Even though Dr. He isn’t live right now, his legend is still present on the battlefield!”
“He Xingzhou is amazing!”
“I knew black technology would appear! There must be new weapons!”
“One shot, one kill, this destructive power surpasses cruise missiles!”
“The black beetles are stopped, what other tricks do the Zerg have?”
The defense of the steel wall was stabilized once more.
Yet at this moment, a crisis emerged at the estuary.
In the ocean, fifth-level Zerg appeared as well, the King Sea Eels, named by people not long ago.
Because they resembled sea eels in appearance, but were dozens of meters long, some even several meters wide, capable of attacking ships!
Some King Sea Eels could even release strong currents to attack, making small-tonnage ships destined for doom in its presence.
“Reporting to Command, this is the Red Son Frigate, our hull is damaged, ammunition is down to less than ten percent, requesting return!”
“Emergency! The estuary’s protective net has been breached in seventeen layers, the King Sea Eels’ currents have detonated all our mine arrays!”
