C348 – Biologist’s Judgment
“All units, listen up! Automatically combined combat mode, step forward, search for biological information!”
The captain shouted at the equipment inside the helmet, and the entire team received the order. The equipment unfolded one by one, turning into a metal ring. The bottom part of the ring was made of rubber, and the equipment was moving. At the top of the ring, there was a machine gun with high firing speed every five meters. However, it automatically opened fire when in danger.
Thousands of small robots entered the ground to clear away the remaining Sickle Insect in the vicinity.
As this was the bottom of the explosion pit, they needed to climb up the slope at a moderate angle.
Lo Ya’s order to the Brain Insect was to fight a protracted war of attrition and not throw in the main force. Instead, she used a large number of new small beetle to restrain the main force and hid the Shooting Reproductive Insect and Sickle Insect, as well as her own position.
However, the bugs that rushed out twice were all destroyed by the machine guns.
These rings were separated later on and turned into small robots that used wheels to move forward. They could automatically attack and find the enemy. The enemies in the sky were the most troublesome. Not only were they flexible, they could also eliminate the insects in the distance ahead of time. Protect these warriors’ safety.
“The difference between a regular army and an ordinary businessman is really huge.”
Lo Ya stopped sending out the small beetle and let the Explosive Beetle fire automatically the moment they climbed out of the ground, attacking these mechanical soldiers in a parabola trajectory.
Because the defensive capabilities of the machines were not as good as the armor of the soldiers, the Explosive Beetle’s one hit was usually able to blow up the opponent.
But there were too many enemies this time. Not to mention the automatic robots that could fold and occupy space, even the few thousand mercenaries hired by the big boss quickly landed at the landing site.
Every time they landed, the exploration ship would fire a hydrogen bomb weapon. It created a huge crater in different areas of the entire planet. If these explosions didn’t happen underground, but on the surface, Then the shock waves could sweep hundreds of kilometers away.
At this moment, on the flagship of the exploration ship, the commander was listening to the report made by the computer.
“Nuclear missiles have been launched at the 30 areas with the most concentrated target creatures, 5,000 automated robots, 300 land soldiers, the battle situation is good, steadily advancing.”
“[Automatic excavation robots have reached 300 meters underground, everything is going smoothly]”
…
“That’s right.”
Every single one of them was good news, which was expected. The civilization behind the Luoga people had occupied many galaxies, and they had already colonized five planets. Adding the Mother Star, it meant that they had six administrative planets.
For such a technological civilization, the resources on most planets could be used. There were countless types of minerals in the universe, whether it was metal or ores, they could all be used as engineering materials. Thus, any planet had a certain value.
But comparatively speaking, the planet below that had a way to transform and still had unknown life was the most valuable. Whether it was a company or a scientist, they all urgently needed to discover an alien civilization.
He had a smile on his face, but that smile disappeared in the next instant.
“Do you really want to start a war?”
The sudden thought that appeared in his mind made him frown.
There was no doubt that this was the ability of Insect Girl Clan. Regarding this point, the owner of the company had already told him the details. This strange civilization could communicate through consciousness directly. No detectors could detect the specific usage of this civilization. It could very well be at the quantum level.
“It directly crossed a few hundred kilometers?”
He was clearly above the orbit, but the Brain Insect transmitted the information to his brain.
Facing the Brain Insect’s questioning, the commander did not mind. More importantly, the few spaceships floating in the orbit were real. If this group of aliens were really interstellar species, they would have fought back long ago. Why did they have to struggle on the ground?
“Captain, I just told the information to the experts of the defense department. After analyzing it, they came to a conclusion.” At that moment, the female vice-captain turned around and said to him.
“What conclusion?”
“This planet might have developed an intelligent civilization in the past, but due to the rapid changes in climate, These creatures were unable to adapt to the environment, resulting in a great extinction. In order to endure the dangerous environment, they were forced to move underground. After surviving underground for many years, they successfully survived the drastic changes in the environment. However, the current environment of the planet has become quite bad, without any signs of life from before.”
The commander fell into deep thought.
Why does it sound like it makes sense?
However, on the surface, the exploration team did not discover any traces of technology. It could only be said that the species in front of them were all focused on their own bodies, and did not pay attention to the development of space.
Of course, there was another possibility. This kind of civilization developed intelligence not long after hiding underground and gradually left the ground, obtaining the adaptability of the external environment.
The uncertainty in this was very high. No one knew how insects were born.
“According to the research of biologists, in the ancient times of Mother Star, There were indeed some similar life forms. For example, the soft, meat-like life forms used were actually very primitive. Similar to some primitive life forms that were born at the bottom of the sea, they relied on simple mouthparts to devour microorganisms. Or they hunt for prey.”
“I understand.”
The commander accepted the scientists’ opinions.
Of course, this was only based on the current information, no one knew the exact details.
It was just like the ancient fossil that was dug out from the Mother Star. It only proved that there were similar creatures in the past. But no matter how hard we restore them, we can’t see the magnificence of those creatures in the past. Everything has long been buried under the rolling wheels of history.
“How should I communicate with those creatures? Should I speak directly?”
The battle on land was already in such a state. Even if they reconciled, it would be very difficult to deal with it. In any case, the higher-ups wanted him to control this planet, so he didn’t need to care about the cost, so he couldn’t be bothered.
In other words, why should he care about a low-tier civilization that was about to go extinct?
…
Lo Ya felt a little unhappy. If they directly attacked the enemy’s fleet now, not to mention whether they could win or not, it would very likely cause a direct war between the two civilizations.
Because there were enemies in the other direction, Lo Ya, who knew a lot of history lessons, would definitely not allow the situation of the two sides fighting to occur. Furthermore, the cost of the frigate was so high right now, and they could not build a few in a month. If the battle was over, she would probably cry.
“If only I could get an ally.”
Currently, within the sphere of influence, other than the humans of Mother Star, only the Green-skinned Man that had just ended the war could provide some productivity.
If they could bring them into the Universe Era and let them resist the Tiss Civilization that might attack them, it might be a feasible plan.
And this would allow Lo Ya to lower her cost and produce a batch of “insect ships” that were not intelligent and completely allowed to be controlled by other races, or it could be called a “mobile weapon launch platform.”
