Chapter 705 Plasma Bugs Also Have Strategies!
The next second, the forty-seven plasma worms deep in the orbit simultaneously adjusted their posture.
In the images transmitted back by the Sky Eye system, the massive black and purple shadows no longer pressed forward in a scattered manner, but instead split into two layers, front and back, staggered, like a living city wall that was closing in.
The front row faces the Kona satellite landing site, while the back row faces the dark universe, ready to fill in at any time.
Even more deadly, the heads of both rows of plasma worms lit up with energy-storing blue light.
Inside the Tian Shu Command Center, the staff area erupted in chaos.
"Oh no! They're using a rotating array!"
"After the front row fires, they move to the side, and the back row immediately takes over. Once the first row has cooled down, they turn back."
"If the models are correct, they can compress the 20-minute interval between single-target attacks into a continuous bombardment every 10 minutes!"
On the main screen, forty-seven energy curves rose simultaneously.
One blue dot after another lit up, forming a patch of cold light outside the orbit of the Kona satellite, like a row of giant eyes opening from the darkness of the deep sea.
Han Niba stared at the light, his brain working at high speed.
A plasma bug attacks every twenty minutes, but Daxia can withstand it with missiles and air defense systems.
However, with forty-seven plasma bugs taking turns firing, the landing site will be continuously targeted.
Once the hundreds of plasma worms have all assembled, what will Great Xia use to withstand them?
Portals, positions, and unmanned legions will all be reduced to ashes in orbital bombardment.
If even one round of interception fails, Great Xia will suffer significant losses.
After several rounds, the steel wedge that was just driven into the Kona satellite will probably be uprooted.
Han Niba lowered his voice very low:
What is the shield overlap rate?
"The outer target is 32%, and the inner target is 57%."
The staff officer quickly brought up the model, his fingertips swiping across the virtual screen, his face grim.
"After the close-range defense beams cross and cover the area, the weak area at the tail is compressed into a window of less than three seconds."
"The success rate of unidirectional armor-piercing penetration has dropped to below six percent."
"In other words, the conventional flanking maneuver is basically useless."
"Damn it, this means we have no choice but to fight them head-on with a large number of missiles!"
"This consumption is too great, and the firepower gap cannot be filled in a short period of time."
Several staff officers were sweating profusely and looked anxious.
Han Niba's gaze swept over the crowd, and he said coldly:
"calm."
"We are not limited to a war of attrition."
He raised his hand and directly pointed to the rotation trajectory of the plasma worm array on the main screen.
"They are not without weaknesses, they just hide them in their position-switching actions."
Several staff officers looked up at the same time.
Han Niba continued:
"They need to rotate, so they must turn around."
"As soon as you turn around, the outer shield will inevitably become misaligned, and the fire protection net will also overlap and waste energy."
"The more complex the defense array, the more vulnerable it is to frame drops when switching positions."
One of the staff officers immediately realized what was happening, but his brow remained furrowed.
"How do we block the plasma plumes they spew out?"
Han Niba's face was as hard as iron:
"Since it's hard to stop, let it fight!"
"We don't have many anti-satellite missiles, but we have plenty of ground-based air defense missiles!"
"If they dare to spit out plasma, we'll use sheer numbers to blast them all apart."
He paused, his tone growing even colder.
"Once they begin to rotate, the missiles already deployed near the orbit will immediately pounce, targeting the moment of repositioning."
"At the same time, notify Lin Mo and ask him to arrange for more teleportation portals to be opened."
"The current throughput is insufficient, far from sufficient."
"Tell Lin Mo that the Terra Tier 7 coalition can concentrate its defense on a single spatial wormhole."
"The other wormhole, Da Xia will send the remaining antimatter bomb there, we'll defend it ourselves."
"Have him arrange for three seventh-tier holy human mages to go and open the gate."
"Hurry up!"
As the orders were issued one by one, no one in the staff sat down to waste any more words and immediately began to carry them out.
Han Niba knew very well that the reason why Great Xia was fighting so dangerously was because it had not been developing for long enough.
The Great Xia was not without the technological reserves to fight a space war.
Electromagnetic weapons, orbital platforms, space fighters, space mechs, and even antimatter bombs—Daxia has them all.
Having the technical capability and being able to deploy equipment on a large scale are two different things.
What's more, these plasma worms in front of us also have energy shields.
Nuclear weapons are not completely ineffective in a vacuum environment; radiation, intense light, and particle streams can still kill targets.
Without atmospheric shockwaves, the damage output is greatly reduced, making it extremely inefficient against such tough, shielded demonic behemoths.
The same applies to high-explosive warheads, which are just as problematic as nuclear weapons.
In a vacuum, where there is no air medium, fireballs and shockwaves are not like those on the ground. No matter how spectacular the explosions are, they can easily become "just pretty to look at".
Therefore, what can actually penetrate now is the most basic kinetic energy penetration.
As for antimatter bombs, their power is truly unreasonable.
Whether you're a magical shield or a space behemoth, you'll be playing an annihilation match-3 game when you encounter one.
The problem is, the Great Xia Dynasty can't bear to part with it!
Production hasn't picked up yet, and the two I have are both strategic treasures with important missions, so I can't touch them.
Han Niba sighed helplessly.
It is for all these reasons that he is now fighting with great trepidation.
His gaze immediately hardened, and he said:
"Notify the fire control team to pay attention to the moment the plasma bug switches positions."
"yes!"
The order was immediately transmitted to the Kona landing site.
On the gray wasteland, the makeshift missile site roared once again.
Launchers rose one after another, continuously firing missiles before retreating, only to be quickly replaced by missile vehicles that sped in from the portal.
Outside the defensive perimeter, the demonic tide continues to assault the line of defense.
Both the sky and the ground are exerting pressure simultaneously.
The demons clearly knew that this was a critical moment; if they couldn't crush the Great Xia, the demons would be next!
The scales of victory have reached a crucial moment.
……
Inside the abandoned underground city.
The unmanned legion marched forward in formation, queuing to enter through two blue-glowing portals.
Missile vehicles, anti-aircraft vehicles, robots, and more are rapidly advancing one after another, all under AI-driven scheduling.
The car headlights swept across the underground dome, illuminating the cracks in the walls with flickering light.
At the forefront, the portal Lin Mo had previously opened, and Kyle's expanding second portal, resembled two giant mouths that spewed out steel, continuously swallowing unmanned vehicles.
Kyle stood in front of the second portal, his old face extremely tense, constantly expanding the portal's boundaries.
ten meters.
This is already a size that heavy equipment can pass through smoothly.
But Kyle didn't stop.
The battlefield on Kona Satellite is not an ordinary battlefield.
The orbital behemoth is targeting the landing zone with targeted bombing. Every extra meter of clearance could mean sending over an extra air defense system or a truckload of missiles.
Perhaps this would save a number of unmanned equipment from dying and prevent the loss of a piece of ground.
Kyle is only a sixth-order rank.
Even though he had already reached the peak of the sixth rank, his speed in opening this interstellar portal was still much slower than that of a seventh-rank mage.
