Lin Tian had already realized the severity of the problem. At this rate, in less than an hour, they would secretly reach the defense line.
By then, the Zerg main force in the center of the nineteenth defense zone would have just passed through the spatial turbulence zone, directly forming a multi-pronged pincer attack.
It would be fine if these unidentified bugs had no special abilities, but if they possessed a means of breaking the Phase Shield, the consequences would be unimaginable.
