"All combat units, sortie! Fighters, bombers, escort craft, gunboats, landing ships, gene warriors, psionic warriors—sortie, all of you!!!" Kunier had gone mad.
Orders streamed out from the central command room. On the crescent-shaped orbital dock, fighters and bombers surged into the air like bees pouring from a hive.
The fleet's main guns had entered their charging cooldown, while the secondary guns kept firing as if ammunition cost nothing. Under attacks from secondary guns, pulse gunboats, laser escort ships, and the like, the Energy-Devouring Locusts on Nidhogg's body split apart and died at an astonishing rate...
Though Alvin warships were no match for Nidhogg one-on-one, sheer numbers could still produce terrifying firepower.
Nidhogg fully demonstrated the might of a super battleship—and of a completely mutated insect beast. Secondary gun ports rose one after another from between the dragon scales on his back. At the same time, Nidhogg's enormous draconic body began spinning continuously through space!
Of the hundred energy beams fired at him, he could evade thirty to forty percent simply by constantly spinning. His biological structure made him far less rigid than a technological warship! And the secondary cannons firing in all directions from his back were far more dazzling and beautiful than those of the Alvin Fleet.
Nidhogg turned, and nearly five hundred purplish-red energy clusters immediately scattered from his wings. If time and space could be frozen and the view brought closer, one would discover that these energy clusters were clearly bugs that looked remarkably similar to Fluorescent Banelings! Concealed beneath the red glow, their forms were difficult to make out. Each of them traced a bizarre arc as it slammed viciously toward its target.
Arcs—yes, Nidhogg's secondary cannon trajectories were curved. And because they were bugs, they could make slight adjustments to their flight paths while in
