?Chapter 412: Chapter 412 Taville’s Research Achievements Chapter 412: Chapter 412 Taville’s Research Achievements What does it feel like to be surrounded by a hundred million insects?

Disgusting, absolutely disgusting, various kinds of extreme disgust!

Just as I had said before, being surrounded by all sorts of worms, reptiles, sticky bugs, arthropods… ugh… every time you turn on any holographic projection, all you can see is insects and their flesh and guts flying everywhere. I really can’t imagine how Pandora and Visca can charge into outer space every day with such high spirits and even come back and eat an extra half bowl of rice…

Under Qianqian’s time acceleration effect, all of our defense turrets finally entered normal operation. The entire Black Egg Star was armed to the teeth, with tens of thousands of orbital defense cannons and even more ground-based anti-aircraft guns. The predicted swarm of a hundred million insects arrived on schedule, and the sight of the seemingly endless insect sea gave one goosebumps, even just from looking at the holographic projections. Although they suffered heavy casualties under the care of the near-orbit laser guns while they were still a day’s journey away—being mowed down by sweeping laser beams—these losses were less than one-tenth of the hundred million-strong tide. The dead insects were even conveniently pushed forward to serve as sacrificial armor. I bet creating one of these insects costs even less than the plate Sandora eats every morning—why on earth did such a bizarre comparison suddenly come to my mind?

After sustaining not too great a loss, the various insect races numbering more than a hundred million finally reached the synchronous orbit of Black Egg Star. There, they encountered a truly powerful blockade and couldn’t advance any further. Led by Sicaro, the Defense Army formed a strong Ghost Energy Shield, enveloping the entire planet. The intense energy floating on the shield not only sturdily withstood the impact of the insects but also incinerated them to ashes during the collision process. After hundreds of thousands of hand-to-hand combat type reptiles were lost, the commanders of the insect race also realized that this mysterious shield was more dangerous than any defensive mechanism they had ever seen. They promptly gave up on the attempt to break the planet shield with suicide charges and retreated the reptiles (or maybe I should call them “little dogs”?) behind their positions, revealing the densely packed and ugly tens of millions of so-called flying dragons.

But when I actually saw these things called “flying dragons,” I couldn’t help but burst out laughing: How dare they bear the name of dragons?

They were nothing but dried locusts with the heads of toads and a couple of bat wings attached to their backs, damn it! These things were several times more disgusting than the aliens designed by the designers at Blizzard! Not only were they covered in dark brown lumps of flesh and spiny shells everywhere, but their faces were so ugly you’d wish to pixelate your own eyes. And what’s even more disgusting—these bastards actually spit at our beautiful sky-blue shield!

Since when did the flying dragons in StarCraft become spitters that just spit water? That’s not in line with the original setting, right? I mean, shouldn’t these guys be spewing out a bunch of little insects… ugh, that seems even more disgusting…

Okay, I’ve decided, let’s tentatively name this operation “For the Clear and Beautiful Blue Sky”.

No more complaints for now, as we still have to face being surrounded by a hundred million insects. The flying dragons—although I’m hesitant to use this term—really lived up to their mighty reputation from the StarCraft storyline. The corrosive acid they spit, according to our measurements, has kinetic energy comparable to conventional solid artillery and acidity enough to corrode titanium alloy armor. For a carbon-based life form to deliver such striking power compels one to marvel at the exaggerated DNA mutation ability of the insect race. However, against the Xyrin units equipped with ghost energy shields, these saliva-dragons are definitely in for a tragic end. Their prized corrosive attacks are completely ineffective against ghost energy, and they think they can penetrate the planet shield with just the kinetics of their spit… I’m confident I can make these spit-dragons cough up blood from their stomachs!
