488: Chapter 488 Meeting the Leader Here
It turns out these beetles have undergone bio-modification.
To put it simply, the beetles' bodies are modified through a parasitic-like method, making them completely controlled by another organism within them.
The parasitic organism inside can be understood as the driver.
However, this driver is quite miserable; its entire life can only be spent inside the beetle, unable to leave.
Of course, even if it could leave, it wouldn't be able to survive independently.
Even stranger, the beetle's head extends two synapses, used as weapons.
These two synapses can even emit high-energy Laser Gun rays, just like a Laser Gun.
And these two synapses are natural, not retrofitted.
The laser emitted by the synapses is very different from the light emitted by a Laser Gun; it is a cold light.
Incredibly, this cold light can release twice the energy of existing second-generation Laser Guns.
Through the analysis of these several aircraft, Oriental Chen came to a conclusion:
One cannot understand the Insect Empire in the same way one understands human society.
The rules applicable in human society may be completely inapplicable in the Insect Empire.
Just like this 'one-time' aircraft, you can understand it as disposable. The driver and the beetle are completely bound, and their innate sole mission is to fight. This is unimaginable in human society; it is anti-human rights and anti-social. But insects can do this.
He didn't know what these insect warriors were called, so he gave them a name himself: Laser Flying Insects.
He had a premonition that he would encounter more bizarre insect species later on.
There were many dragonfly corpses slaughtered today, and it was impossible for the salvage aircraft to collect all of them in one night.
After all, this was the result of the combined efforts of 200,000 Simulation Spider Robots; to keep up with the recovery speed, at least 50,000 salvage aircraft would need to work simultaneously.
Only 100 have been built so far, which is still far from enough.
There was no way around it; distant water couldn't quench immediate thirst. If they waited for the salvage aircraft to be built before collecting the corpses, these dragonflies would have long since rotted. For the rational use of resources, Antss were also dispatched.
The massive Ants swarm, like a plague of locusts, devoured a dragonfly down to its skeleton in a few seconds.
On the other hand, could the Tasman Empire, having lost five Laser Flying Insects, just let it go?
Definitely not.
Soon, thousands more were sent over.
However, without an absolute weapon advantage, no matter how many there were, they were just sending themselves to their doom.
Within an hour, these thousands of Laser Flying Insects were all annihilated.
At the same time, the Simulation Spider Robots also lost more than two hundred.

Currently, the Great Sun Country's zombie clearing operation in the United States of America has completely stopped.
Because, except for seven states in the southeastern region, other areas are basically covered by snow.
Currently, the average snow depth has reached a terrifying 2 meters.
Except for the core areas of some cities, most places are no longer visible, only a vast expanse of white.
So now they can only be stationed in Xidaji, Florida, to rest and await further orders.
This area is located along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, influenced by equatorial ocean currents, making it warm and humid.
Under the influence of widespread global snowfall, the temperature is still over ten degrees Celsius, which is very comfortable.
Florida now gathers half of the United States of America's population, and many survival bases in northern regions have completely relocated here.
Especially the two large cities of Orlando and Miami, after the Great Sun Country's fleet cleared the zombies, they have become a paradise for survivors.

November 23, 2056 AD.
Several large spaceships appeared on the western border of the Ulan Neutral Zone.
The hulls were tiger-striped and strangely shaped.
Oriental Chen was stunned after receiving the alert.
This style was very similar to the Maya Empire on the American continent.
"What are the Mayans doing here?" Oriental Chen wondered.
This was not a good sign. The Mayans were skilled in Mind Control Technique, and now there were three million people living in the underground base in Batuo City; if they were controlled, it would be no laughing matter.
Without time to hesitate, he immediately dispatched 10 warships to meet them.
The warships were all unmanned and not afraid of Mind Control.
An hour later, the two sides met in the Danbo area.
Oriental Chen sent out a signal first.
"Warning! This is the territory of the Ulan Neutral Zone. Please leave immediately upon receiving this message."
The message was sent in four languages: Chinese, English, Spanish, and Old Indian.
"We are envoys sent by the Great Priest of the Maya United Empire; we have no ill intentions."
The other party replied, using Old Indian.
"What is your purpose in coming to the Ulan Neutral Zone this time?" Oriental Chen asked.
"We have a very important matter to personally meet the leader here," the other party replied.
"They want to see me?" Oriental Chen was puzzled.
He had never dealt with the Mayans before, and their uninvited arrival this time was clearly very suspicious.
