Chapter 570: 249 Complete Sixth Rank Insect Swarm!
Slaughter.
A pure and clear desire for slaughter flooded Yang Ming’s nerves.
Once he came near the Insect Swarm, all of Yang Ming’s extraneous thoughts vanished, leaving behind only the simplest and most instinctual combat thinking.
Charge, dodge, find the weak points of the Insect Swarm.
Tactical support from outside; the East Wind’s main cannon burst twice in a short time; the Fierce Ghost Mecha’s multiple protective shields fully deployed, isolating the high-intensity radiation produced by the ion beam-induced fusion; not waiting for the residual heat in space to dissipate, he forcibly broke into that section of the golden patterns comprising the Queen’s Wall.
Annihilate all non-human foes!
The crimson tide erupted repeatedly in outer space, and the spread-out Insect Swarm began to contract violently.
The firepower from the supporting fleet surrounding him could no longer breach the shell of the Insect Swarm.
At this moment, the Fierce Ghost Mecha seemed completely like an army fighting alone.
If it stopped, slowed down, or got blocked by the queen’s personal guards, it would inevitably get trapped in an endless insect swarm.
The crimson tide burst forth once more.
The resilience of this Insect Swarm was somewhat beyond Yang Ming’s expectations.
On the periphery of the Insect Swarm, inside the flagship of the temporary fleet.
The youngest Earl of the Sherman Empire, the son of hope from the Rasoga family, Revelle Rasoga, was at this moment gripping his ornamental metal sword, frowning at the scene before him.
He didn’t let his blood rush to his head and directly order the fleet to charge into the core of the Insect Swarm; instead, he followed Mr. Ghost’s instructions for continuous firepower support.
But feeling it up close, the biotic radar counted the number of Insect Swarms, causing Rasoga to tightly purse his lips.
’Is this Insect Swarm too powerful?’
’Is this really an enemy we can handle?’
"Earl, we must prepare to retreat at any time!"
"Trust Mr. Ghost," Count Rasoga said gravely, "he is a hero and the nemesis of the Insect Race; he will surely solve the queen."
"But... alright, my lord."
"How is the ground casualty situation?"
"The estimated death toll exceeds ten million."
"How many?" Rasoga turned his head to look at the speaking elder butler, his handsome face full of shock, "Ten million people? Humans? Citizens of the Empire?"
"Yes, my lord," although we and Mr. Ghost arrived fairly in time, half of the cities on the ground have been destroyed; there are only ten million casualties here because Saka Star itself had not many inhabitants left and most cities were idle."
The old butler’s face was somewhat pale but still sat calmly while reporting:
"It is said that this outbreak of the Insect Swarm is different from the past; before they fought for resources, but this time they targeted humans directly. In the past few years, a great number of Insect Swarms have been wiped out, and they are retaliating.
"Right now, there are five other planets similar to Saka Star, and the estimated death toll has already passed eighty million.
"The Natural Disaster continues, and Imperial Fleets everywhere are in a tough fight; the Military Department, in order to ensure local battlefield superiority and avoid massive losses of the Imperial Fleets, has no choice but to sacrifice these planets."
Count Rasoga, leaning on his metal sword, turned his head to look at the projection screen on the bridge.
These damn bugs.
He wished he could immediately command the ships he could control to ram into the queen, but reason told him he couldn’t do that.
"Our firepower is far from sufficient!"
Count Rasoga clenched his fists tightly: "Concentrate the energy into as narrow an area as possible; blow open the Insect Swarm!"
"Yes!"
Suddenly!
A strong light penetrated the Insect Swarm!
In the center of the Insect Swarm, scorching white light flickered, followed by a brilliant sphere of light that momentarily outshone even the distant star of this star system.
On the ground, the insects that were wantonly slaughtering humans looked up; the second batch of Insect Swarms that hadn’t landed yet took to the air, swarming en masse towards the location of the queen.
The disaster was not subsiding; there were still a large number of insects attacking humans, carrying out the previous command of the queen, but their actions had slowed down, and their attacks became erratic, like a swarm of headless flies.
"The Insect Swarm is starting to disperse!"
"They’re moving away from the planet! Mr. Ghost did it again!"
Count Rasoga was immediately about to issue the order to pursue when the main projection screen on the bridge flickered slightly, and that familiar figure appeared.
The young Earl’s eyes immediately filled with light, and he unconsciously took a few steps forward, puffing out his chest and looking up at the man on the main projection screen.
A full-coverage tactical helmet, grey and white exoskeleton armor full of battle scars—this was the hero known to everyone in the Empire today, one of the transformed people!
"Mr. Ghost!"
Count Rasoga shouted, "This is the Rasoga family’s Escort Fleet! Please give orders!"
"You’ve worked hard," Yang Ming’s voice drifted in the bridge, "I’ve slain the Mother Worm here, detonated the Mecha to crush any remaining males, but the Insect Swarm still retains a huge number, and the ground is still under attack; your fleet should quickly occupy the near-earth orbit, clear the Insect Race on the surface, and protect the remaining cities."
"Yes!"
Count Rasoga’s slender body seemed to contain immense energy as he bellowed, "Advance the fleet! Take the protection of the surviving cities on the ground as the battle objective!"
"Very good," Yang Ming nodded calmly, "I will head to the next operational location to provide support. Your support for the battle today, I will report to the Imperial Military and the Imperial Elder Council as it is, requesting commendation."
A smile spread across Count Rasoga’s face, but he immediately said:
"Fighting shoulder to shoulder with Mr. Ghost is the best award for me!
"This moment is something I can boast about for a lifetime!
"Mr. Ghost, can you remember my name? My name is Revelle!"
"Of course, Revelle," Yang Ming gave a thumbs-up, "Fighting alongside you is also my honor. Until next time."
