Divide and Conquer, Guerrilla Tactics!
Unbeknownst to him, Alvin, whose actions had triggered a massive mobilization of the Blood Angels, was currently engaged in a fierce battle with the Tyranid Swarm on Pertita!
The anti-aircraft guns never stopped firing all day!
Hundreds of cubic tons of shells were fired, and the damage was so great that the Tyran mothership failed to deliver a single Bio-spore Pod to the ground.
As things stand, humans hold the advantage!
But Alvin knew very well that this advantageous situation was the result of the industrial systems of the three worlds providing full support and disregarding costs!
"He's really patient." Alvin was a little annoyed. He had put in all his effort, ready to fight Tyran for three hundred rounds, but the other guy was completely ignoring him!
It wouldn't be accurate to say they ignored it.
But he knew very well that Tyran's Leviathan Bio-ship had never taken it seriously from beginning to end.
It's not that the Tyran are truly helpless against this planet; the main issue is that Tyran haven't focused their efforts on this Death World, which has no value for plunder. Their primary target for attack remains the Aeros Industrial World!
Preventing humans from obtaining "Promethium" seems to be the Hive Mind, determining that it is the highest priority in the current situation.
"Fine, fine, you're ignoring me, huh?" Looking at the Tyran fleet hovering in orbit, Alvin's face turned cold. "Very well, then don't blame me. I was planning to save it for later, but since you're not giving me face, then I'll let you taste—the flavor of Dark Age human technology!"
In preparation for this war, he specifically brought over the "Void Claw," intending to give the Tyran fleet a "surprise"!
I just didn't expect it to appear so soon!
The next moment, Alvin placed the "Void Claw," which had been miniaturized using Micro Space Compression technology, outside his Personal Space.
"AI, connect to the Void Claw."
With a command, the war AI took over the control program of "Void Claw" and locked onto the Tyranid Swarm Bio-ship located above its orbit.
"Countdown 3, 2, 1... Launch!"
A beam of extremely inconspicuous, almost transparent light pierced the night sky over Pertita.
In an instant, the Hive Mind sensed the danger and issued an emergency evasive order to the fleet, but—it was too late!
A miniature singularity exploded before the Tyran Bio-ship, releasing terrifying gravitational ripples.
Dozens of Zerg warships have been captured!
The powerful gravity warped space, creating a vast, deep, and dark abyss that was swallowing up the surrounding Tyran fleet!
In just a few seconds, the massive Tyran fleet lost dozens more warships!
Adding to the previous sneak attack, the losses suffered by Tyran this time have been so severe that even the Hive Mind is feeling the pinch!
What kind of weapon is that?!
While shocked, the Hive Mind also became extremely wary of the mysterious weapon in that Death World, capable of creating a black hole!
That weapon must be destroyed!
Otherwise, if the enemy targets the mothership next time, the Tyranid Swarm fleet will lose!
After analyzing the pros and cons, the Hive Mind took this Death World seriously for the first time, and ordered a large fleet to begin unleashing a barrage of fire on the ground!
Under the overwhelming firepower of the space orbit, even with ground-based defensive railguns, the Tyran fleet quickly breached the space defenses.
Dense Bio-spore Pod, like a meteor shower, rained down on Pertita!
The Tyranid Swarm have landed!
However, this was exactly what Alvin had expected. Looking at the large numbers of Tyran that had already landed, a happy smile appeared on his face, "We've finally got you all here. Now—it's time for the second phase of the plan!"
On the other side, from the Bio-spore Pod that landed in Pertita, a massive number of Tyranid Swarm, along with Tyranid Warrior, Tyrants, and others, surged out, roaring towards the enemy like a boundless ocean.
Let it hit!
Alvin, hiding in a safe spot, watched the area on the map being continuously stained red by Tyran, his smile growing ever brighter.
The war has only just begun!
Over the next day, Tyran witnessed firsthand what despicable and shameless truly meant!
Despite the industrial power of the three worlds and Tyran's dominance in space, the entire Pertita was riddled with canyons and fissures, with tunnels dug out in all directions even in the plains and mountains!
The Tyranid Hive Will was practically spitting blood!
It had never seen such a disgusting tactic before, not for the sake of winning, but simply because it was "disgusting"!
Mechanical warriors were everywhere, in groups of three, in squads of three, in platoons of three, and in companies of three. They were all scattered and ambushed in the tunnels. When they saw a passing Zerg, they would pop up and fire a shot, then run away without lingering!
Most importantly, its idea of using war to sustain war was eliminated from the very beginning!
The enemy isn't a living being at all, but a mechanical war machine made of steel. Forget about replenishing Biomass, you'd be too lazy to even eat it!
Oh no!
Tyran's Hive Mind suddenly had a bad feeling; it seemed as if they had been dragged into a muddy swamp!
Pertita, like a nail!
It is firmly anchored in the route to Aeros, putting the Hive Mind in a dilemma. Without removing Pertita, this thorn in their side, they will be unable to launch a full-scale attack on Aeros!
But turning around to remove Pertita, that thorn in their side, would again be a hindrance, hindering humanity's relocation.
"Plain Time!"
The reason why the Tyran is in a dilemma is closely related to their unconventional behavior this time.
In the past, Tyran's fleet would devour the Biomass on each planet they passed as a form of replenishment before advancing.
But this time, heaven knows what was on Baal that attracted Tyran's Leviathan fleet, causing them to completely defy their nature and, instead of fully consuming the Biomass along the way, forcefully break through layers of blockade.
Alvin had precisely targeted this point, knowing that Tyran's Hive Fleet Leviathan was different from the past. He seized the opportunity when they had not yet fully replenished their Biomass and turned Pertita into an eyesore!
Want to leave? Sure!
Don't even think about leaving Pertita until you've used up all the stored Biomass!
Pertita is now like a rock in a latrine to the Tyran fleet—stinky and hard to handle!
If we don't attack, our rear will be constantly harassed. But if we do attack, we won't get any Biomass. "Hmph, never seen anything like it before?" Alvin looked at the densely packed positions and sneered, "This wave is an ancient tactic from the 20th century, hundreds of thousands of small positions, like a mace of nails scattered across the battlefield."
Even if I have to pull them out one by one, I'll make you pull them out for a whole month!
Remember the sixteen-character mantra!
When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy camps, we harass; when the enemy tires, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue!
It's just procrastination, anyone can do that!
Your Zerg numbers are limited, but my mechanical warriors are endless. It's time for Tyran to experience what it's like to be crushed by a "human wave tactic"!
It feels so good to beat a dog when it's down!
