Chapter 454: Chapter 281: Master of Calamity!
“Our side has suffered heavy losses, the assault on the Super Bug Nest has encountered obstacles!” the subtask commander hurriedly reported.
“Assemble the warships!” The deputy commander of the Blue Star Fleet was responsible for this area, gathering the nearby warships.
On the command ship, Qiu Hong watched the Zerg continuously pouring out of the Super Bug Nest and ordered, “Start resonance frequency testing.”
Several warships simultaneously fired a large number of electromagnetic cannon shots at the Super Bug Nest.
Their target was not the silicon-based Zerg but the Super Bug Nest itself.
Just as the body of an insect has a resonance frequency, the Super Bug Nest, as a large structure, also has its own resonance frequency.
All these electromagnetic cannons were equipped with impact testers, capable of testing the resonance frequency of the Super Bug Nest upon impact.
“The resonance frequency of the Super Bug Nest has been obtained.”
“First squadron, adjust the resonance weapon, target, Super Bug Nest!” Qiu Hong shouted.
With his command, a large number of resonance torpedoes were launched.
They densely blanketed the area, some falling on the surface of the Super Bug Nest, others drilling into the interior!
This feature was improved by scientists at the Academy of Sciences, who simulated destroying the Bug Nest using resonance weapons in their calculations — it was achieved this way.
A large number of resonance torpedoes began to induce resonance within the Bug Nest, and the insects immediately sensed something unusual.
The ground in the area of the Super Bug Nest began to tremble, like an earthquake.
In battle, although there are explosions and earthquakes, this shaking was different. The entire Super Bug Nest was vibrating at a very regular frequency, the amplitude growing larger, soon to exceed the material’s capacity.
“It’s going to be destroyed here!”
“Retreat quickly!” The insects realized that their Bug Nest could no longer withstand the attack and was about to collapse!
In the reconnaissance footage, it was visible that the ground was rapidly collapsing, with huge structures crumbling internally!
This reaction was chain-like, vast, with land spanning thousands of miles shattering entirely.
A massive shield volcano split into countless fragments under the power of resonance, some insects caught in the collapse due to their inability to escape in time!
The other Zerg, deprived of shelter and healing places, fled in all directions!
To achieve such power with other weapons, at least a Star Destroyer Cannon or Asteroid Weapon would be needed!
Yet with the resonance weapon, dozens of warships could launch resonance torpedoes together, destroying the Super Bug Nest and shield volcano!
“Is this the power of resonance?” Qiu Hong was astonished, remembering He Xingzhou mentioning during tactical operations that stubborn targets could be dealt with using resonance weapons, and he hadn’t expected such effectiveness!
“Can resonance torpedoes be used too?” The people of Blue Star were also amazed, with the collapsing scene of the shield volcano deeply etched in their minds.
In the face of modern technological weapons, a super volcano could also be ‘crumbled’ into dust!
“The power is acceptable, but lacking in follow-through,” He Xingzhou was observing the battlefield, noting that after barely destroying the Super Bug Nest, the resonance ceased.
The aftershock formed seismic waves, continuing to transmit across the surface.
If the resonance could continue with sufficient energy, it could shatter the whole planet!
“Well done, Qiu Hong!” Luo An was delighted to see the Super Bug Nest destroyed, “Other squadrons can emulate this method, uproot the enemy’s surface nests first!”
The warships began launching large numbers of electromagnetic cannons and resonance torpedoes, attacking several prominent insect nests on the Venusian surface!
The insects could find no way to respond, with only a few able to control strong magnetic and electric fields, capable of large-scale disruption of the resonators.
But by that time, humans had already occupied the atmosphere and provided cover with various weapons, making it difficult for them to exert any influence.
On Venus, many insects perished, with one Super Bug Nest after another being destroyed, leading to a sharp decline in the Venusian Zerg’s numbers.
At this time, they began to burrow underground, where humans could not immediately harm them.
But on Mercury, upon learning that the Venusian Zerg had fallen behind, the Mercurian Zerg began to mobilize.
“Charge out, human weaponry is advancing too fast! If Venus is taken by them, Mercury will eventually fall to humanity too!” The Mercury Furnace Insect King led its Zerg army into Mercury’s atmosphere.
“My King, should we go to support Venus now?” a High-level Planet Dominator asked.
“No, with that guy on Venus, it won’t make a difference whether we go or not,” said the Furnace Insect King, “Let’s seize this opportunity to attack Mars.”
“Though it looks like humans have the advantage now, once it emerges, humanity will certainly be defeated.”
“The human defenses on Mars are weaker; if we can take Mars and establish nests underground, even if humans react, they won’t be able to deal with us.”
The Furnace Insect King led its army flying towards Mars.
“The Mercury Zerg have mobilized, our forces will intercept,” He Hongwei immediately coordinated the fleet for interception.
“Even the Mercury insects can’t sit still anymore. Is the Insect King from Venus going to show up?” He Xingzhou muttered softly.
“Where on earth is that guy hiding?” Xu Zhilan was also observing.
They deployed numerous drill robots, searching for the Insect King through underground nests and tunnels.
On Venus, another Super Bug Nest was destroyed by resonance weapons, with several hundred Planet Giant Beasts and countless Zerg being shattered by the power of resonance!
Humans were about to pursue; several warships lowered their altitude to carry out low-level bombing.
