Chapter 497: Chapter 240: The Use of King Realm Zergs, the Reproductive Armor Mecha Displays Its Might

Under Lin Feng’s lead, the Genetic Warriors were the first to take to the skies, starting the battle ahead of schedule.

After fusing with the Membrane Wing cells of Tier Two Wind-winged Zergs, their speed was no longer inferior to their opponents’. Combined with the power of the Electromagnetic Cannons in their hands, they quickly unleashed a fierce electrical bombardment on the circling Cyan-winged Zergs and Wind-winged Zergs.

The Magnetic Storm Bomb’s area of effect covered a one-kilometer radius, capable of directly blanketing the airspace above the Swarm’s billowing smoke screen.

Any Cyan-winged Zergs paralyzed by the electrical bombardment would fall into the dim yellow smoke screen below, only to be brutally crushed by the stampeding Swarm.

Many Tier Two Wind-winged Zergs reacted quickly. Under the control and command of the Mother Empress, they switched from circling patrol to a combat state, fleeing straight up at a blistering Mach 2 and rapidly gaining altitude to evade the bombardment from the Electromagnetic Cannons.

However, unlike before, the large fighter jets the humans should have dispatched were nowhere to be seen. In their place was a group of genetically modified humans who also had flapping Membrane Wings.

This clearly caught the Mother Empresses off guard.

With the combination of Ling Yi’s Infinite Reproduction and Lin Feng’s Particle Control Realm, the Salvation Army’s equipment had become the most advanced in the world, even surpassing that of the current Zerg Race.

Furthermore, the cost of equipping Tier Two Samurai Hunter Zergs with Membrane Wings was not low. Moreover, air combat required extreme adaptability, forcing the Mother Empress to strike a balance between control and autonomy. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ

The more powerful and intelligent a Samurai Hunter Zerg was, the higher its Spiritual Attribute. Consequently, it was more likely to accidentally leave the Mother Empress’s maximum Spiritual Control range during battle, break free from its bonds, and never return.

But now, humanity had developed to such a degree, far exceeding the expectations of all the Mother Empresses present.

Their original plan to use Tier Two Wind-winged Zergs for high-altitude bombing had now fallen through. Many Wind-winged Zergs, already loaded with Suicide Bugs, could only jettison them prematurely, causing them to detonate violently in the smoke screen to lighten their loads.

Even so, the Wind-winged Zergs could not escape the pursuit of the human Genetic Warriors. As the Wind-winged Zergs scattered and fled, the chase between the two sides took place at an altitude of ten thousand meters.

The mobility the Zerg Race had once been proud of was now completely nullified by the humans’ identical flapping-wing Flight Mode.

Meanwhile, the long-range Electromagnetic Cannons in the hands of the human Genetic Warriors left the Wind-winged Zergs completely unable to fight back.

The most lethal and powerful among them was, by far, the Golden Warrior leading the charge.

Lin Feng was clad in his lv30 Golden Armor. Even when the Wind-winged Zergs attacked in high-speed dives, they couldn’t inflict any effective Damage on the Tier Three Golden Armor.

Coupled with the Basic Attributes of his Might of the King Zerg, which suppressed nearby Tier Two Zerg Race members, Lin Feng killed as many as seven or eight Wind-winged Zergs in the first brief exchange.

After chasing the remaining Wind-winged Zergs up to the stratosphere at ten thousand meters, free from the interference of smoke and air currents, Lin Feng used the short-burst firing mode of his Ion Laser Cannon during the pursuit. Combined with his Eye of the Death God Attributes, he quickly locked onto all the Tier Two Wind-winged Zergs for precise headshots.

Ten seconds later, as Golden beams of light continuously flashed high in the sky, forty to fifty Wind-winged Zergs either died instantly or fell into near-death shock from extreme heat damage to their brains, plummeting one by one from the ten-thousand-meter altitude.

Lin Feng immediately shouted:

"Rip off their Membrane Wings and collect them!"

Receiving the order, the nearby Genetic Warriors sped toward the falling targets. Using the Bone Blades that evolved from their hands, they began to cut off pair after pair of Tier Two Orange Membrane Wings.

These things were no less valuable than a Zerg Race matriarch. They would allow his Guard Battle Group to also gain high-altitude combat capabilities. When integrated into their Tiger Armor, the improvement to their Flying Ability would be significant.

Soon, under the high-speed barrage of the Ion Laser Cannon, all the Wind-winged Zergs had their spiritual connections severed and fell to their deaths from on high before the Mother Empress could even react.

An attack at the speed of light was certainly faster than the feedback speed of Spiritual Control.

If the other Wind-winged Zergs hadn’t been able to transmit images of their comrades’ deaths, the Mother Empress wouldn’t even have known what kind of attack the enemy was using.

Within the first five minutes of the battle, the Zerg Race’s elite air power, the Wind-winged Zergs, were completely annihilated by Lin Feng and his men. After seizing air superiority, Lin Feng returned with twenty Genetic Warriors, laden with spoils, leaving fifteen others behind to continue the high-altitude bombing strikes against the Zerg Race.

This would also guard against any Wind-winged Zergs that had slipped through the net, as well as the large number of remaining Cyan-winged Zergs hiding and circling within the smoke.

By the time Lin Feng and his group returned to the Yunxia Ridge garrison, the battle on the front lines had already entered a heated stage.

The blocking squads on each mountain peak were using every long-range weapon at their disposal—including Armor-Piercing Cannons, Electromagnetic Cannons, and even the Shotguns wielded by the Warriors—to bombard the enemy.

Although the latter were only lv19 Red Quality Replicas, they were still very effective against the Tier One Black Spine Zerg Swarm. Furthermore, an ammunition reserve of 5,000 rounds allowed them to pull the trigger without restraint, forming a dense web of firepower.

Two hundred Shotguns, combined with the dozens of Armor-Piercing Cannons in the hands of the Battle Group, were temporarily able to halt the Swarm’s advance, holding them back outside the mountain range.

Lin Feng landed on the main peak and integrated the thirty-odd pairs of Tier Two Orange Membrane Wings his team had collected into the Reproductive Armor Mecha.

After replacing the original six pairs of Cyan Wing Membrane Wings, the Mecha’s flight performance was elevated to a new level. It could now just barely lift the several-dozen-ton frame for rapid takeoffs and landings.

Its Flight Mode changed from short-distance gliding to its current subsonic cruise, which could be sustained for as long as half an hour.
