Chapter 767: Battle of Macragge 10

Countless dense and creepy swarms of insects descended on the prosperous city of Macragge like a dark cloud.

In an instant, the originally bustling and vibrant streets fell into chaos and blood, and in the blink of an eye they turned into brutal battlefields of fierce fighting.

The Ultramar Auxiliary Soldiers, armed with advanced laser rifles and powerful blasters, responded quickly. They clung tightly to one building after another, using everything they could to resist the Zerg's attack.

"Remember what I said before! The heavy firepower team open fire at full force to cover the infantry squad and quickly advance to the second block! There are still our comrades there who have not yet evacuated! We must not let those damn bugs succeed!" A commander roared at the top of his lungs, his resolute face glowing red from the flames of war.

However, a heart-wrenching message came from the communicator: "The second block has been lost! Sir! We are retreating towards 18th Avenue! The good news is that the armored forces are rushing to support us!"

At this time, the Macragge Library in the city center is no longer the peaceful and tranquil palace of knowledge. Now it has been transformed into the temporary headquarters of the 56th Infantry Regiment of the Ultramar Defense Force.

"Report the current casualties immediately!" An officer wearing blue Ultramar-style armor strode into the library with a solemn expression and ordered loudly.

At this moment, the Zerg has completely landed on the ground, but fortunately, the Ultramar Defense Force has successfully resisted the Zerg's crazy attack temporarily with its sharp reaction speed and the tacit cooperation of the Space Marines.

"Bang!" Accompanied by a deafening roar, a magnificent and huge building collapsed like a giant, raising a cloud of dust.

A huge, ferocious-looking bombardment bug slowly crawled out from the billowing smoke and dust, and nimbly climbed to the top of the ruins.

It stood there steadily, like an indestructible automatic turret, facing the armored reinforcements that were rushing in ruthlessly.

"Bang!" A green light flashed across the sky, and the front Leman Russ main battle tank was hit instantly.

The strong acid was like a devil's kiss, rapidly corroding the tank's thick and solid armor, melting it into pieces in the blink of an eye.

The driver in the car didn't even have time to let out a scream before he and his beloved car turned into a pool of acid water emitting a pungent smell.

"Find cover! Find cover quickly!" Panicked shouts resounded throughout the battlefield. The soldiers who had been closely following the tanks on both sides suddenly woke up as if from a dream. They scattered in all directions as quickly as possible and rushed into a nearby building in a panic to seek shelter.

At the same time, the team responsible for carrying heavy weapons did not hesitate, quickly set up the heavy grenade launcher, and accurately aimed at the direction where the acid shells had just attacked.

"Three o'clock direction! Open fire immediately! Don't give this damn monster a chance to breathe!" The commander gave the order at the top of his lungs.

After receiving the instructions, the huge Leman Russ tank crew immediately took action. The heavy muzzle slowly turned and finally locked the position of the bombardment bug.

Immediately afterwards, a torrential firestorm poured out, and dense shells slammed into the extremely hard shell of the bombardment insect like a swarm of meteors.

However, at this moment, "bang!" The acid muzzle of the bombardment bug flashed a terrifying green light again, and another deadly acid bomb whizzed out and fell accurately into the crowd.

In an instant, screams, explosions, and the sound of twisting metal intertwined together, forming a horrifying scene from hell.

Dozens of soldiers, along with their sturdy armor, turned into pools of white acid in the blink of an eye.

This horrifying scene shocked the surrounding soldiers. No one had expected such a terrible thing to happen, and expressions of fear and panic involuntarily appeared on everyone's face.

"My arm! My arm is rotten! Save me! Save me!" a soldier shouted heartbreakingly, his voice full of despair and fear.

He looked at his arm, which had been intact before, but had now been corroded beyond recognition by the acid, with the skin and flesh rolled up, revealing the white bones.

"My legs! My legs!" Another soldier also made the same miserable cry. He fell to the ground, hugged his legs tightly with both hands that were constantly being devoured by the acid, and rolled on the ground in pain.

For a moment, more than a dozen soldiers who were unfortunately affected by the acid were all in extreme pain. Their wailing echoed throughout the battlefield, making people shudder.

The deadly acid mercilessly corroded every part of their bodies, starting from the limbs and gradually spreading to the whole body, until their bodies were rotten to the point where the bones were visible.

"Medic! Medic! There are wounded here!" Someone shouted for help at the top of his lungs. Soon, two soldiers with red cross armbands on their arms came running over.

They quickly rushed to the injured soldiers, skillfully took out syringes, and gave the wounded a simple injection of anesthetic to relieve their pain.

However, after doing this, they did not take further action to treat the wounded.

"Hey! Take them away! Take them away!" the person next to him urged anxiously.

"There's no time! We can't save so many people!" One of the medics shouted without looking back, then turned and ran, disappearing in the chaotic crowd in the blink of an eye.

Leaving behind those soldiers who were seriously injured and dying, struggling on the spot, waiting for their next fate.

Yang Cheng and the controlled brain worm watched all this quietly. At this time, the senses of the brain worm had been assimilated by Yang Cheng. Yang Cheng could use this brain worm to control all the swarms belonging to it.

Because Yura's Zerg is fundamentally different from the Tyranids, the Tyranids' hive mind is spread throughout every individual in the Tyranids. The hive mind permeates the entire swarm. The lower Zerg do not have their own consciousness. They are like a group of biological machines that only devour everything.

Jura's swarms are more like traditional creatures. Although they also need node creatures to control the swarms, Jura's control is becoming increasingly weaker as it spreads outward. Many newly born swarms even need to be conveyed by brain worms before the message can be delivered to Jura's nerves.

This also resulted in Yura's main control ability not being strong, and being restricted by Yura's human body, the swarm's mental power was like the ocean to Yura's nerves, and Yura's nerves alone could not control it at all.
