Even though they did not use the zero-point particle missiles, the Zergs were being "wiped out" in droves!
It was not until Lin Kexin checked the recorded footage that she realized that the Zergs were not wiped out. Instead, the Zergs had used some unknown method to hide themselves again.
"Technical team, have you analyzed what's going on?"
"Commander, according to our preliminary analysis, the strange Zergs should have self-destructed. However, there's something strange. After they self-destructed, a special energy in their bodies seems to spread rapidly!"
"Special energy?"
"Yes, this energy is very special. If we scan the area now, this is the result!"
"This is …"
After the technical team re-implanted the scanned energy source distribution into the tactical video, the countless red dots that represented the Hidden Blade Bugs that had almost completely disappeared from the video immediately reappeared.
At this time, these red dots did not just reappear, they did not even exist.
Instead, they were replaced by an entire red area.
Yes, it was not a red ocean formed by red dots. It was a red ocean to begin with.
"Commander, according to our analysis of the data we have so far, this energy will spread rapidly in a very balanced manner after the Zergs self-destruct. It will spread to a range of at least five million kilometers within a minute."
"At the same time, this energy seems to have the effect of masking other energy. All the Zergs within its range can no longer be detected, even by the scanner energy."
"This is like a smoke bomb!"
Although the analogy given by the technical team might not be appropriate, it was indeed the case.
From the tactical image, Lin Kexin could only see a red area. She couldn't tell where the Zergs were located in this area.
This was difficult. After all, this was a cosmic war. If one did not know the precise location of the opponent and attacked randomly, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Well, perhaps it was not as exaggerated as looking for a needle in a haystack. After all, the humans were attacking in a large area, but the efficiency of the attack would definitely drop to a terrifying freezing point.
"As expected, it's not that simple!"
Lin Kexin frowned and muttered to herself after calculating the location and speed of the Zergs and launching two waves of attacks at the calculated location.
Originally, the two waves of attacks should have been able to eliminate at least three billion insects. But now, according to the calculations, only tens of millions of insects were eliminated, which was a difference of a hundred times.
It was evident that after the Insectoids successfully covered their tracks and went invisible again, they immediately adjusted their entire army's formation and even changed their marching route. As a result, Lin Kexin's two waves of attacks almost missed.
Of course, Lin Kexin was just giving it a try. She didn't have much hope.
"Order the fleet to spread out as far as possible. All battleships, switch the cannon mode to Space Piercing!"
"Yes, Commander!"
Lin Kexin's countermeasure was actually very simple and primitive.
Since I can't see you, I'll just spread out the fleet in a large area and let them use a penetrating space attack with a range of 10 AU, which is called Space Piercing.
The rest was simple. They just had to see where the attack hit rate was higher. That would be where a large number of Zergs were concentrated.
They didn't need to know the exact location of the Zergs. They just needed to know the approximate location. Finally, it was just a matter of firing a zero-point particle missile!
The entire 101st Special Forces' one million battleships quickly spread out on the defensive line following Lin Kexin's orders. The distance between every two battleships was at least hundreds of thousands of kilometers.
Since they didn't know the current marching speed of the Zergs, it was obviously more suitable to use ultra-long-range penetrating attacks. No matter what your current speed is, no matter where you are, as long as you're in my beam, I can catch you!
According to the calculations, from the moment the Zergs disappeared until now, even at their fastest speed, they could only advance 0.2 AU.
Therefore, the first wave of probing attacks directly targeted the 1.8 AU position in front of the defensive line.
One million battleships fired in unison. Their firepower was extremely sparse.
However, it didn't matter. After all, the goal wasn't to kill a large number of Zergs. There was no need for concentrated firepower at all!
Outside the 1.8 AU position, almost at the same time as the 101st Special Forces' firing, millions of attacks directly affected that position. A large amount of white quickly rose.
Immediately, the entire void seemed to have been pierced through by millions of holes, all the way to even further away.
Some attacks had no effect, but some attacks set off a storm of blood. A large number of unlucky Hidden Blade Bugs were hit and their broken corpses appeared in the void.
At the same time, on the bridge of the Luoshen.
"Commander, a preliminary model has been drawn based on the first wave of attacks!"
"How many targets can we confirm now?"
"Reporting, 392 targets have been confirmed. The rest still need to be corrected by the data of the follow-up attacks!"
"Good. The staff team will immediately plan the targets of the second wave of attacks and distribute them to all battleships!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Adjutant, let the 101st Special Forces launch zero-point particle missiles according to the 392 targets given by the staff team. Execute immediately!"
"Yes, sir!"
Lin Kexin did not have the time to wait for the follow-up confirmation to start the attack. Who knew if those bugs would change again? Since they had discovered them, they had to attack immediately to ensure the best attack effect!
On the defense line of the 19th Defense Zone, there was a battleship of the 101st Special Forces that was obviously different in appearance from the other battleships. Moreover, this battleship did not participate in the first wave of attacks. It was the 101st Special Forces' zero-point particle armed carrier. In this battleship, there were a total of 3,000 zero-point particle missiles. It could be regarded as a strategic arsenal ship!
"Captain, all 392 targets have been locked and distributed. We can start the attack at any time!"
"Good. Open the back armor and start deploying zero-point particle missiles!"
"Yes, the back armor is opening … zero-point particle missiles beginning deployment … Reporting, deployment complete!"
"Launch!"
"Yes, sir!"
The back armor of the battleship moved to both sides, revealing its hidden true appearance. It was a strategic arsenal that filled more than half of the battleship. It made one's hair stand on end.
One must know that any one of these things could wipe out a planet or even a star system!
The 392 zero-point particle missiles had already been activated. After the captain's final order, they were fired from the launch channel …
Flying out!
