Build a Swarm Tech Tree in Konoha

Chapter 351 This is a Quality War

When the second wave of matter rushed through the six-string star, it was shot by hundreds of thousands of high-energy particles, but the damage was not great, the key was speed.

Before the arrival of the third wave of materials, the warships of Liuxianxing were dispatched on a large scale. They were arranged in a neat queue, opened the electromagnetic shield, and burst out all the firepower to meet the material flow at the calculated time.

This time, the materials and swarms were completely intercepted, but Zhou Wenming definitely did not suffer, because the 200 million tons of materials destroyed more than 2000 warships, and the smallest of these warships had a mass of more than one million tons.

The battleship group adjusted its queue and blocked the wreckage of the battleship in front, trying to block the fourth wave of supplies, but still lost more than 1000 battleships in the end.

This was completely an act of blocking the muzzle with warships, and the loss ratio was as high as three orders of magnitude, so the battleship group retreated, leaving only more than 3000 warship wrecks blocking the channel.

These wreckages blocked about a quarter of the materials in the fifth and sixth waves of material flow, and the loss of the insect swarm was even more serious, reaching half the level.

But these attrition were not wasted. They cleared the channel again and made it possible for the hammer, the cannon, and the forty avatars to arrive.

The greatest value of wisdom lies in adapting to the situation. Unlike purely material swarms, warhammers, cannons, and avatars dropped swarms on this heavily protected planet when they passed the six-string star.

Because the launch was too sudden, the armed forces on the battleship group and the star ring did not respond in time, and only a few hundred of the more than 6000 bugs were intercepted by firepower.

But these bugs did not reach the surface of the planet smoothly. Their speed was too fast, and most of them were burned up in the atmosphere.

A few bugs protected by the formation reached the ground, but they also smashed craters on the ground like meteors, and there were no dead scum left.

The purpose of Warhammer and the others to release bugs is not to deploy troops. There is no unit of the bug swarm that can descend to the planet alive at a speed of [-] kilometers per second. They are actually just vehicles to ensure that the spores hidden in the body can enter the atmosphere.

One of the basic principles of war is to know yourself and your enemy and win a hundred battles. Warhammer cannot accept blindly fighting without knowing the details of the opponent.

The spores will use the organic matter of the six-string star to reconstitute scout-type bugs, scout the planet under the strict protection of the fleet, and try to pass on the information.

The spores delivered this time cannot evolve into combat and destruction arms, because Warhammer believes that intelligence is the first. After obtaining planetary information, it can naturally arrange a more accurate delivery plan, and continuously transport combat power into planetary operations.

Warhammer and the others brought hundreds of cocoon servers, and randomly put them into the star system, ensuring the connectivity of the sea of ​​spirits, and avoiding the failure of the last intact cocoon server, which caused Meteor and the large army to lose contact. Condition.

The two Descendants arrived for support, and the manpower was suddenly free. The construction work in all aspects was carried out rapidly, and the expansion speed of the insect swarm suddenly increased by more than ten times.

Especially Cannon, as the descendant of the industrial group, he is best at military industrial construction and the production of offensive weapons.

Under the auspices of Da Pao, the three basic industries of mining, smelting, and chemical industry are developing rapidly. The smelted metal resources and large-scale chemical product output have changed the production method of the brood again, saving a lot of processes, and the speed of producing bugs has increased dramatically. More than 100 times.

A few days later, with the completion of the basic industrial system, the production of the military industry also started, and a large number of automated defense weapons began to arm the main base on the dwarf planet.

The false bases and sub-bases did not fall either. These large and small celestial bodies were covered with defensive weapons, and each of them was rapidly transforming into a fire hedgehog.

……

When Zhou Wenming was expanding rapidly, Liuxianxing was not idle. Countless reconnaissance planes and reconnaissance satellites were released, and a carpet search was launched.

A fleet of [-] warships tracked and investigated along the trajectory of the seven waves of material flow, releasing more reconnaissance planes along the way.

Sufficient troops allow Liuxianxing to carry out a two-pronged approach to carry out all-round investigations, and Zhou Wenming can't hide for long.

Da Pao suddenly said in the channel: "Unexpectedly, Liuxianxing seems to be particularly stubborn, but his actions in response to the changing situation are impeccable, and he didn't give us any chance."

Warhammer asked, "Operation Spore?"

Da Pao replied: "Yes, 90.00% of the failures, and I can barely give back a little information."

"The six-stringed star actually carried out a large-scale disinfecting on the trajectory of our worm meteor. Except for a very small number of spores, they were completely wiped out by them. I was blinded by my hard work."

A single individual spore is extremely small, which is its advantage, but also a disadvantage.

It is so small that it is easy to infiltrate and invade, dragging the enemy into the abyss of death without knowing it.

At the same time, the tiny spores also lack resistance and are easily destroyed by simple disinfecting methods, such as the simplest acetic acid.

Moreover, the information stored inside the spore is too small to have any redundancy. After being irradiated, or even after the division of natural reproduction, the information will be missing or wrong. This is an absolutely unavoidable increase in entropy.

The spores use each other as redundancy to fight against entropy increase. When the number reaches a certain level, it is difficult for the spores to transmit enough correct information to develop into a more advanced swarm.

So although there are still spores remaining, and it can be confirmed that it is slowly adapting to the environment, it is likely to regenerate and reproduce later.

But by that time, these spores will become one of the creatures of the six-stringed star, and will no longer be part of Zhou Civilization's insect swarm.

Cannon said: "Now the spores can still feed back some information, but it is getting weaker and weaker. After four days at most, the mutation of the spores will exceed the scope of the swarm, and I will lose control of the spores."

Meteor asked: "Is there any value in the feedback? I have dealt with Liuxian Xing until now, and their situation is still superficial."

Da Pao replied: "I don't have much information, I only know that the ecological environment of Liuxianxing is very good, and life is extremely prosperous, but I haven't found such an environment like a city."

Warhammer said suddenly: "Too little information, useless."

Da Pao himself said: "It is true that there are too few, and even if there are cities, the area is so small, it is normal not to encounter them."

He continued: "The response of the six-string star is too tight, and so far it has blocked our way to make tricks. This star system is also too clean, there are no giant gaseous planets, and there is no dense asteroid belt."

"Wait until the fake base in front is killed, and then we don't even have to play guerrilla warfare. We can only fight head-on with them."

Meteor smiled optimistically: "It doesn't matter, isn't it just a matter of reckless production, as long as the resources can keep up, our swarm will not be afraid."

Warhammer said: "Artificial intelligence, very efficient."

After a pause, Warhammer slowly announced a ranking: "Quality War."

When both sides of the war have strong production capacity and the speed of replenishing troops is extremely fast, they will fight for logistics, because the number of troops that can be replenished on the front line is always limited.

But it is different in space. The extremely wide space is the battlefield, and the investment of troops is almost unlimited. At this time, the competition is the amount of material occupied by each, and the speed at which these materials are turned into combat power and projected to the battlefield.

At this time, there is no difference in the technological level between the two sides, so weapon data and energy efficiency are no longer the most critical data. Quality, the quality projected to the starry sky, is the basis of everything.

This is the quality war mentioned by Warhammer, and it is completely different from the high-tech war mentioned on Blue Star.

Meteor was silent for a while, and said: "Forget it, let's stay silent for a few more days, accumulate the number of insect swarms, wait for follow-up supplies, and then officially launch the war, and receive our second batch of reinforcements by the way."

Warhammer: "Okay, I'll lead."

Cannon: "Agreed."

This channel is dedicated to descendants, and it is also the frontline decision-making meeting, so after the battle plan was proposed, the three of them could execute it without any objection, and the channel calmed down accordingly.

As a weak invader, Zhou Wenming had to face the mopping up of a strong civilization. In order to buy time and quickly accumulate strength, everyone had a lot of things to do.

At the front line of the six-stringed star at this time, Zhou Wenming did not grasp the advantage of victory, and he did not have Yu Ya to chat and adjust his emotions. Coupled with the suppression of the taciturn boss Warhammer, he seemed quite silent.

Swarms of swarms blasted off from dwarf planets into high-altitude orbits, and then fell into a dormant state, stopping all activity so that the swarms would not radiate heat and electromagnetic waves to the outside.

In space-level strategic reconnaissance, as long as it does not actively emit energy, it is enough to be invisible.

Don't look at the tens of thousands of bugs already entrenched in the high-altitude orbit of the dwarf planet. These knight bugs, commonly known as lollipops, are all big guys with a length of 450 meters, but from the direction of the six-string star, these bugs are simply invisible. .

Without him, the bugs are too small and the number of bugs is too small.

Even the hives on dwarf planets with a height of two to three kilometers and an area of ​​hundreds of square kilometers are the same, too small to be seen at all.

The only thing that will really expose itself is thermal radiation and electromagnetic radiation. Meteors have been carefully handled from the beginning, using the cooling of the underground sea to prevent thermal radiation, and using the blanket covering the dwarf planet's crust to isolate electromagnetic radiation.

At present, the external thermal radiation of the entire dwarf planet has increased by less than one ten-thousandth, and the electromagnetic radiation has decreased slightly, which will never be discovered.

To be on the safe side, the furthest fake base is already heating up.

The fake base is located on a comet. At this time, the ice of the comet has completely melted and turned into a crystal water ball. Dust and rocks are naturally deposited in the core, and a hard star core is formed by arc melting.

As more dragon hearts are delivered, the power output is getting bigger and bigger, and the melted shell water of the comet is magnetized, which can turn into layers of electromagnetic water film shields at any time, and magnetized water rails for electromagnetic guns.

And the thermal radiation of this melting water polo has increased tens of thousands of times compared with the original ice comet, and it can easily be found by careful observers through comparison, serving as a cover for the main base.

In order to hide before, the comet was covered with a layer of beetles, which reflected most of the heat radiation back and absorbed a small amount of it as energy for the beetles to survive.

Now the layer of beetles spread out, and the thermal radiation radiated toward the stars.

The speed of discovery of this sudden change is a test of the level of execution of a civilization. The three descendants are very curious about how long it will take for the six-stringed star to discover and respond.

Turns out, two hours.

Just two hours after the comet unveiled its cover, the six-string star fleet began to assemble, and a fleet of [-] warships swooped towards the suddenly changing comet.

Too fast, which means that the time interval between the six-string star scanning the starry sky and analyzing the data, plus the time for fleet mobilization, is less than two hours in total.

Ask yourself, this speed is much faster than Zhou Wenming. Meteor knows that in the solar system, Zhou Wenming's reaction speed is about four hours. The most time-consuming thing is the analysis and comparison of data.

The first thought of the three descendants was not so powerful, but so weird. With such a super high level of execution, why is this civilization squatting motionless on a planet?

Super-high executive power usually represents the centripetal force of civilization and the determination to develop upwards. It is the biggest advantage of a vibrant civilization and should be accompanied by strong curiosity and enterprising spirit.

Just like Zhou Wenming, there are only a few people, so he started interstellar exploration, colonized the Zilei star, and even carried out the construction of the Dyson ring beyond his capacity.

Well, to be honest, Zhou Wenming is indeed a special case of civilization with a particularly strong jump, and many behaviors are close to death and aggressiveness.

But the six string star is even more strange like a pool of stagnant water. Except for the tight package of the star, they have no signs of colonization, not to mention colonization across the star system, and there is not only one planet in the star system.

No colonization, no foreign expansion, but built more than a dozen star rings, large and small, and there are six synchronous orbital ladders on the main star ring, and the million warships are an exaggerated project that is so extravagant.

What are the six-string star people thinking?

When Meteor and Cannon were still struggling, Warhammer said: "Don't think too much, hit it, and you'll know."

Meteor agreed: "Yes, fight over there and lift the shell of this million-dollar warship, so you will naturally know what they are doing and what they are thinking."

Da Pao also laughed: "That's right, war is also communication, let's fight!"

Two days later, the six-string star fleet approached the false base of the comet. The false base has now become a real fortress, and the layers of electromagnetic water film have caused the volume of the comet to expand thousands of times.

The water film reflected the brilliance of the stars, as dazzling as diamonds, and then an even more dazzling high-energy particle beam was launched from the fortress, directly hitting the six-string star fleet 800 million kilometers away.

With this attack as the beginning, the war officially kicked off.

However, the first battle of the opening ceremony was rather sloppy. After firing hundreds of lasers and high-energy particle beams, both sides silently fell silent.

The distance is too far, the energy dissipation is too serious, the attacks of both sides can't be regarded as washing each other's face, and the damage is not as good as children attacking each other with water guns.

But the attack consumption of both sides is not low. I don't know the situation of the six-string star warship, but each shot of the Comet Fortress consumes more than ten tons of materials, and it is still purified and refined strategic materials.

This level of consumption is just to illuminate the opponent, which is too uneconomical.

So both sides returned to silence, accumulating energy, waiting for an explosion at a closer distance.

　Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and I will post a new chapter as soon as possible in advance.

　　I wish you all the best in the Year of the Rabbit.
