Free Web NovelInterstellar Insectoids are like creatures that appear out of thin air, with no information about them whatsoever. It is only known that they are instinctively warlike and will subconsciously devour any living creature within their perception, even to the point of cannibalizing their own kind.
If they descend upon a planet, it will be a catastrophic disaster for all life on that planet.
Interstellar Insectoids generally appear with the emergence of a Cosmic Insectoid Hive.
To this day, there is no scientific explanation for the appearance of Cosmic Insectoid Hives.
They are also referred to as Cosmic Rifts, Interstellar Fissures, and so on.
It's as if a rift suddenly appears in the universe, and then the Interstellar Insectoids pour out from it, launching attacks on surrounding planets.
If not contained, these Interstellar Insectoids will, after devouring all life on a planet, proliferate into more Zerg, then spread towards surrounding planets and Galaxies.
The duration of a Cosmic Insectoid Hive's existence is not fixed; some are long, some are short, some are large, some are small. Different scales of Cosmic Insectoid Hives will result in different scales of Interstellar Insectoids appearing. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
In this regard, researchers of the Galactic Alliance have already developed a system for discovery.
Cosmic Insectoid Hives are classified from low to high: Level 1, Level 2, Level 3...
The grading standard is proportional to T1 technology and T2 technology.
Because in their battles against the Interstellar Insectoids, everyone discovers that some powerful individual Interstellar Insectoids possess strength comparable to Interstellar Warship.
And these Interstellar Insectoids are also called... Zerg Hive Motherships!
Zerg Hive Motherships carry large numbers of Interstellar Insectoids to fight, conquer, and slaughter planets.
Zhao Chen recalled the knowledge about the Zerg he had learned at the North Star Starship Military Academy.
“So, is there any detailed information about this mission?” Zhao Chen asked Charlotte.
Charlotte shook her head, “I only heard the general news; I don't know the detailed content yet.”
Zhao Chen pondered for a moment, then said to Charlotte, “You immediately go [N O V E L I G H T] and prepare. Arrange for the Blizzard Zero and the t2 bee queen-class heavy carrier starship to carry a full load of military supplies and prepare for departure from the Starport at the fastest speed!”
“Depart from the Starport? Where to?” Charlotte had just finished asking when she realized. She looked at Zhao Chen in surprise, “Commander, you couldn't possibly be...”
“Do as I say. I’m going to try to get more information on this now.” After giving his instructions, Zhao Chen immediately headed to the Bridge of the T2 Queen Bee.
Meanwhile, Charlotte went to the Blizzard Zero to issue the mission.
During the period when Zhao Wan'er was absent, the two of them were respectively responsible for these two Starships.
Upon arriving at the Bridge, Zhao Chen immediately contacted someone.
“Hello, Mr. Zhao Chen, I am Starport Manager CC11. May I ask what service you require?” The female manager, seeing him for the third time, smiled at the man before her.
“Do you know about the Cosmic Insectoid Hive incident?”
The female manager was startled, then nodded, “Are you referring to the Cosmic Insectoid Hive incident that occurred around P331 Asteroid?”
“If there aren't two Cosmic Insectoid Hives in your Star System, then that's the one,” Zhao Chen said.
“If you wish to know the detailed contents, you can go to the headquarters where the missions are issued at the Arctic Fox Starport. There is an introduction there,” the female manager replied.
“I don't have time. I need to understand all the intelligence regarding this mission as quickly as possible, and I also need to accept this mission at the fastest speed,” Zhao Chen said.
“You want to accept this mission?” The female manager was startled. It had been half an hour since the bounty mission was released, and the General Manager of the Arctic Fox Starport had personally inquired with several Commanders of private fleets and adventurer fleets stationed at the Starport, but no one was willing to accept the mission.
“Yes,” Zhao Chen said.
The female manager said, “Accepting the mission is not a problem, but according to procedure, your fleet needs to be registered first, and...”
Zhao Chen said, “I want it done the fastest! Get these things settled within ten minutes.”
“Ten minutes?” The female manager looked troubled. “These procedures must be followed. On one hand, it's also for the safety of your fleet...”
Beep, beep, beep.
“Your account has received 1000 star coins.”
The female manager suddenly received a deposit notification. She glanced at it, then met Zhao Chen's gaze in the holographic image. Both understood without words.
“Due to the special nature of this mission, we can use an emergency channel. I will try to contact someone for you and give you a reply within ten minutes.
At the same time, I will send you all the mission intelligence content first.” The female manager finished speaking as quickly as possible, then directly cut off communication with Zhao Chen to go through the emergency channel.
Indeed, it's the same everywhere; money makes things easier.
Zhao Chen didn't dwell on that; he began to review the mission intelligence content sent by the female manager.
This was an incident that occurred three hours ago in a remote area of the Arctic Fox Star System, where a Level 2 Universe Insectoid Nest suddenly appeared.
Upon learning this news, the Lord of the Arctic Fox Star System immediately issued an order to dispatch a fleet to eliminate these Interstellar Insectoids.
However, a large portion of the Imperial Army originally stationed in the Arctic Fox Star System had been transferred away not long ago.
And the Arctic Fox Star System's own Lord Fleet had been dispatched to another border battlefield to execute a small combat mission.
Therefore, currently, only a small Imperial Army Fleet was stationed in the Arctic Fox Star System, and this small Imperial Army Fleet had already rushed to the incident area. However, the number of Interstellar Insectoids was too large, and this small Imperial Army Fleet alone was completely unable to suppress them.
The Arctic Fox Star System immediately sought assistance from surrounding Galaxies and the Governor of the North Wind Star Sector.
The North Wind Star Sector is one of the eight major Star Regions of the Starlight Empire, governing sixty-three Galaxies, including the Owl Dragon Star System, the North Star System, and the Arctic Fox Star System.
However, it also takes time for reinforcements to reach the battlefield; the fastest reinforcements would not arrive for another ten hours!
According to the simulation calculations by the high-level officials of the Arctic Fox Star System, within these ten hours, this batch of Interstellar Insectoids would affect planets with human presence within their range, including three asteroids and one satellite, with a total population of seventy million.
The first to be attacked would be the five million civilians on P331 Asteroid.
Currently, there are two voices among the high-level officials of the Arctic Fox Star System: one voice suggests abandoning P331 Asteroid and retreating to several other more populated planets, holding out until reinforcements arrive.
The other voice suggests that P331 Asteroid can be abandoned, but all five million civilians on P331 Asteroid must be evacuated.
And the latter, by coincidence, was the opinion of the Commander of the only remaining small Imperial Army Fleet. That Commander, acting first and reporting later, directly led his fleet to P331 Asteroid.
And demanded that Interstellar Transport Ships be immediately dispatched to begin evacuation efforts for the civilians on P331 Asteroid.
However, according to system calculations, this Imperial Army Fleet alone would be unable to successfully evacuate five million people from P331 Asteroid under the Interstellar Insectoids attack. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Therefore, that Imperial Army Fleet Commander directly came up with an idea: since neither the Lord Fleet nor the Imperial Army could arrive temporarily, then invite civilian fleets to assist.
Thus, this bounty mission came into existence.
The mission bounty was a full five hundred thousand star coins, and at the same time, that Fleet Commander guaranteed that all Starship losses and consumption during the battle would be borne by the Imperial Army.
Zhao Chen rubbed his chin. In truth, he didn't particularly care about saving people. He couldn't risk so many people on his two Starships just to save others; he didn't consider himself a savior.
However...
Interstellar Insectoids corpses are very valuable. Their bodies contain various resources, making them a mobile treasury.
And coincidentally, Zhao Chen was short on money right now.
Plus, the system's mission...
