T3 Exploding Beetle and T3 Corruptor are both Bug Units cultivated and hatched by the T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership.

The T3 Exploding Beetle is only the size of an adult human and its combat power is not strong, even inferior to a T1 Flying Bug.

However, it possesses an astonishing characteristic.

That is self-destruction!

The power of its self-destruction is enough to blast a large hole in the hull armor of a t2 star battleship, and it poses a great threat to the hull armor of T3 Interstellar Warships.

At the same time, its self-destruction consumes a huge amount of energy from the Star Shield!

It's easy to imagine what it would be like if hundreds of Exploding Beetles rushed towards an Interstellar Warship and successfully exploded at close range.

Fortunately, the number of T3 Exploding Beetles is extremely small; a T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership can only cultivate and maintain between one hundred and three hundred Exploding Beetles at a time.

Most of these Exploding Beetles are in a dormant state within the hive body.

It can even be described as: when they are awakened, it is time for them to carry out their suicidal mission.

The true survival time of a single T3 Exploding Beetle often does not exceed half an hour.

It's unclear if this is due to concerns about them losing control and blowing up the Mothership themselves.

The T3 Corruptor is a mutated and evolved version of the T2 Hydralisk; its individual size is ten times that of a T2 Hydralisk, possessing two pairs of wings, and its body size is even equivalent to the bulk of a t1 interstellar battleship.

It can fly in an interstellar environment and has the ability for short-range rapid assault; its mouthparts can spray high-concentration biological sulfuric acid with medium range and extremely fast firing speed!

Once a Starship's armor is penetrated by a T3 Corruptor, it will release an astonishing number of bug eggs into the ship's compartments, and these bug eggs will hatch into a large number of T1 Zergs.

These T1 Zergs will invade all departments of the entire Starship in a very short time, and the liquid they spray has strong corrosive and electromagnetic interference properties.

At this moment, these terrifying swarms of bugs were like an open abyss, sweeping in from above, below, left, and right of the T3 Blizzard-class Light Interstellar Battlecruiser's front, intending to swallow this tiny prey.

"Report, enemy's Flying Unit will be the first to enter our ship's attack range!" a crew member reported.

"Bow cannon and main cannon remain on standby.

The secondary cannons will precisely strike the enemy's t3 level Bug Units, and the close-in defense cannons will open fire at full power to intercept the enemy's bug swarm!

Interstellar Drones enter defensive automatic combat mode." Charlotte commanded.

Zhao Chen stared at the holographic image, the scene resembling a game.

The model representing the T3 Blizzard had already begun firing.

Large numbers of T1 Flying Bugs at the very front were shattered in swathes.

The T3 Blizzard's seventy-two medium close-in defense cannons were firing incessantly, the bullets forming large curtains of fire.

Due to the dense nature of the bug swarm, a single bullet could often kill several T1 Flying Bugs.

A medium pulse laser secondary cannon rotated its direction, aimed at a section of the bug swarm, and immediately fired!

A laser beam shot out, and after penetrating dozens of T1 Flying Bugs, it precisely hit a T3 Exploding Beetle hidden among them.

Due to the T3 Exploding Beetle's inherent weakness, it often requires other Bug Units to cooperate in combat, using them to conceal its own body.

Another laser beam shot out, this time hitting a T3 Corruptor, piercing a large hole in its body.

Interstellar Drones were also continuously attacking these bug swarms.

In just a few tens of seconds, the T3 Blizzard had killed at least several thousand Bug Units, and this number was still climbing.

Despite this, these bug swarms still swept in fearlessly, getting closer and closer to the T3 Blizzard.

Some T2 Hydralisks had even begun spraying venom to attack the Starship.

But fortunately, they were all blocked by the Star Shield on the front of the T3 Blizzard.

"Report, an enemy T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership and four T2 Zerg Hive Motherships have entered the range of our ship's bow cannon and main cannon," a crew member reported.

Charlotte decisively ordered without hesitation: "Fire!"

The Blizzard-class heavy clustered laser bow cannon, which had been charging for a long time, fired a massive blue energy beam. Wherever this blue energy beam passed, whether it was a T3 Corruptor or a T3 Exploding Beetle, let alone T2 Hydralisks and T1 Flying Bugs, they were all annihilated into dust!

Unlike the previous pulse laser, the clustered laser is a continuous attack.

Therefore, from the outside, one could see the T3 Blizzard's bow cannon continuously outputting energy, the blue energy beam constantly pushing forward, tearing a gap in the pitch-black bug swarm, and finally revealing its intended prey.

A T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership!

Zhao Chen watched as the clustered laser in the image directly impacted the heavy armor on the T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership's head.

Boom!

Although he didn't actually hear a sound, Zhao Chen felt as if he heard this violent impact in his mind.

The clustered laser did not directly destroy the T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership upon impact, but rather continuously pounded its heavy armor.

Somewhat similar to Interstellar Warship, the Interstellar Insectoids truly become 'militarized' Interstellar Insectoids starting from t3 level.

The T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership does not have a Star Shield like a T3 Interstellar Warship, but it has developed extremely terrifying biological armor, with an average strength tens of times higher per area than the armor of a T3 Interstellar Warship!

At the same time, the T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership's individual size is also tens of times that of a T2 Zerg Hive Mothership.

A T3 Interstellar Warship appears as tiny as a small grape next to a watermelon in front of it.

If Zhao Chen were to [N O V E L I G H T] use the T3 Blizzard to ram a T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership right now, it would be uncertain who would be torn apart.

In the T3 Blizzard's hangar compartment, the originally narrow porthole was now crowded with several professors and mentors, with those behind them unable to see anything at all.

"Holy cow, is that attacking the T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership!"

"Although we can't see the Starship's weapon structure, judging by that attack, it should be a clustered laser type weapon."

"This T3 Interstellar Warship belongs to the Interstellar Battlecruiser class. Its equipped clustered laser cannot directly kill a T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership. The T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership's heavy armor is a terrifying existence that even the main cannon of a t3 level Interstellar Battleship can withstand!"

The professors and mentors discussed amongst themselves.

The teachers and students behind them could only hear their words, completely unable to see the scene outside the porthole.

Teacher Qin suddenly asked the professors and mentors in front to make way, then operated her handheld terminal a few times, capturing the scene outside the porthole and projecting it into the hangar.

This way, everyone could see the battlefield scene.

In the hangar, all the teachers and students watched the blue beam, holding their breath...

"What a powerful cannon..." Xue Xiaoxiao said, her mouth agape, looking stunned.
