With Lin Fan backing him up, Lin Tian was a lot more daring.
He could now try out some daring battles that he had not dared to try before. After all, with Warstar Neutron by his side, he was confident.
Ten days passed without him noticing.
During this period, both sides tacitly stood at a distance of ten AU without making any other moves.
However, as time passed, the number of Zergs increased, to the point where a single Zerg could drown the entire Fearless fleet. This was no exaggeration.
"Chief of Staff, how many Zerg Particle Missiles do we have in stock?"
Lin Tian looked at the results on the spatial radar and asked the staff officer.
"Currently, we have 75195 Zerg Particle Missiles, 950 Zerg Particle Bomb Carriers, and 29560 Zerg Particle Mecha Bombs …"
The chief of staff opened his terminal system and reported a series of Zerg Particle Weapons inventory.
Lin Tian's expression was grave as he listened to the report and stared at the spatial radar's feedback.
If they wanted to use the Zerg Particle Weapons to wipe out the Zerg Particle Weapons, they would need to use at least two-thirds of their inventory.
Based on the current number of Zerg Particle Weapons produced in the Vita Defense Line every day, they could not keep up with the Zerg's endless stream of Zerg arrivals.
In other words, if they couldn't suppress the insectoids' momentum in an all-out war, the entire Fearless fleet's Zero Particle Armament would run out of ammunition and food in less than three days.
After a simple calculation, Lin Tian immediately came to a very bad conclusion.
"As expected, the only feasible method is to capture the ringleader first?"
Lin Tian could not be blamed for thinking this way. After all, even if they used up all of Fearless's energy and all of their Zerg Particle Weapons, they would not be able to wipe out all of the Zerg. They might not even be able to handle ten percent!
However, capturing the ringleader was not that easy!
It should be noted that this was different from what happened in Alba. According to Amir's intelligence, Aliya already had the means to deal with phase shields a hundred thousand years ago. Furthermore, she had the protection of a frightening number of royal guards. If the Fearless fleet were to charge head-on into her like they did in Alba, not a single one of them would be able to return.
"Let's spend more effort on positional warfare first. If it doesn't work, we can consider sending Warstar Neutron to execute a decapitation attack!"
-----
Another two days passed.
While Lin Tian was busy setting up defensive lines, on the other side, in the largest tunnel in the insectoid territory, a type of insectoid that the Federation had never seen before appeared in a neat formation.
Of course, the moment they appeared, they were already captured by the Weta Defense Line's spatial radar.
"Commander, a new type of combat bug has appeared among the Insectoids. Its appearance and bio-energy are special. We can't find any similar records in the database!"
"Show me the detailed data!"
"Yes, Commander!"
Soon, a 3D image of a scorpion-like combat insect was projected in the bridge, and various detectable data was marked on its side.
Hiss …
Everyone looked at the data and sucked in a breath of cold air.
This data was simply too exaggerated!
Each of them was the size of a Titan-class Battleship, and the energy within them exceeded the standard of a Class 2 King Insect.
If there were not many of them like the King Insect, no one would be surprised. However, the problem was that there were simply too many of them. In less than ten minutes, over a hundred million of them had appeared, and there were still more arriving.
"Show me the data of the battle we captured in Alba. Check the information recorded on the Royal Guard Cocoons, and compare them with this new type of insectoid!"
"Yes, Commander!"
Lin Tian suddenly thought of something and turned to Vieruodis.
According to the analysis of the three types of advanced basic combat insects that had appeared on the battlefield, even if the Zerg evolved to become more powerful, their energy fluctuations would not change much, even if the various functional organs in their bodies were disregarded. At most, their strength index would increase greatly.
In order to confirm his guess, Lin Tian decided to confirm it.
Very soon, Bi Luo Fourth-four looked up all the data of the previous battle according to Lin Tian's instructions.
After destroying the cocoons, Emil had told them that these were the Royal Guard Cocoons of Alba.
However, at that time, the Royal Guard Cocoons of Alba had not fully hatched, so they were not recorded in the Insectoid Combat Bug Database to avoid misjudgment.
Now, after a comparison, other than the energy intensity being much weaker than the new insectoids, the basic energy fluctuations were very similar.
"Sure enough, these are the Royal Guard Cocoons, they should be Aliya's personal guards."
"Since they are Aliya's Royal Guard Cocoons, the next battle should not be far away."
"Notify all fleets to raise their combat readiness to level one!"
After confirming that these insectoids were Aliya's Royal Guard Cocoons, Lin Tian quickly made a judgment. War …
It's coming!
As if to confirm Lin Tian's speculation, after a day, when the number of Aliya's Royal Guard Cocoons reached tens of billions, the Insectoids … began to advance again.
However, what Lin Tian did not know was that the commander of this attack was no longer the Class 1 King Insect at the frontline, but Aliya, who was located three million light-years away in the Kate Star System!
As a prelude, when the Insectoid army entered 10 AU of Vita's defensive line, the Fearless fleet made the first move.
After the single-point piercing space strike was released, it almost simultaneously affected the Insectoid's front formation.
There was no way to stop it, and Aliya did not even think about stopping it. She just continued to advance silently.
As for the Fearless fleet on the Vita's defensive line, they completely ignored the damage caused by the wave of attacks every thirty seconds.
Indeed, this amount of damage was not even enough to cause the Insectoids to lose a single hair!
It was almost a replica of the previous battle. Two hours later, when the front of the Insectoid army entered the range of 5 AU, the Spray Beetles began to attack!
"This shouldn't be!"
Looking at the tactical projection, Lin Tian was a little confused. This was exactly the same as the previous battle, which was somewhat beyond his expectations.
In his mind, with the previous experience, the Insectoids would definitely use a different strategy this time, but the reality was the opposite …
"Where are the Royal Guard Cocoons?"
"In the third section of the Insectoid formation, currently 9 AU away from our defensive line!"
"The third section? So that's how it is! Order all fleets to stop attacking the Spray Beetles at the front of the Insectoid formation. Go around the front of the formation and directly attack the Royal Guard Cocoons at the third section! "
"Yes, Commander!"
