Chapter 345 The Resource Trap
Finged
After days of rushing, turning, chasing, and getting dragged back and forth, the insectoid tide had barely reached the outer star zone before the defense line blasted it head-on.
Because every imperial department was now running at terrifying speed, the outer defense line’s energy reserves had been replenished greatly within a short time.
More supplies were still arriving.
The First Legion’s combat power might not rival the other legions.
But with the entire Empire behind it, it still had confidence.
In only one hour, the front of the insectoid tide suffered heavy losses.
The First Legion counterattacked fiercely.
The Second and Third Legions hit even harder from behind.
If this had only been a two-sided pincer, the Giant-Jawed Stag Beetle and the Infernal Prison Bee would not have panicked.
Their swarm was huge enough.
They trusted their own strength too.
But if Orion dared openly fight a tug-of-war and turn this into an attrition battle, then this could not be his only move.
Humans needed supplies.
Did insectoids not need them?
Of course they did.
Compared with humans, who drove starships, mechas, and weapons powered by external energy, insectoids burned energy even faster.
They crossed the universe with their own bodies.
They
They fought humans with the energy inside those bodies.

In other words, every movement drained them quickly.
Then how did they replenish themselves?
Eat humans?
Eat their own kind?
Eat planets?

Humans contained powerful energy, yes. Under the current war situation, however, eating humans was nowhere near enough to cover the swarm’s consumption.
Eating their own kind was possible.
But it was clearly not time yet.
That left the best choice.
Planets.
The insectoids had to gnaw on planets and refill their losses.
On the right flank outside the outer star zone, there was a developing region called the Labyrinth Sector.
The name was very simple.
Planets in that sector often broke apart, forming a vast debris belt around the entire region.
Some rocks were as huge as moons.
Some were only gravel-sized.
All of them drifted through the void at random, spinning at high speed.
But beyond that death maze lay countless resource planets.
When human traitors and insectoids joined hands to create this catastrophe, that place must have been marked as a supply zone.
Julian sprawled beside the war star map. watching Zoya Vance and Major General Mercer lead troops to set up defenses outside the Labyrinth Sector
They were preparing to kill the insectoids that came looking for food.
He tilted his head.
“If we do not guard it, the Labyrinth Sector will be gone. From today on, this is also this rogue cultivator’s family property”
Orion, who had been watching the battle, laughed softly.
Julian, the accelerated development of your reproductive cavity still is not over You should be lying down and sleeping obediently, not seriously taking inventory of your family property”
Oh
Julian looked up. I cannot sleep!
Onon gripped the fair nape of his neck and pressed him firmly back into his arms
Then he bit down on the sweet gland
When the battle ends, I will sleep with you for as long as you want.
The Julian-cat struggled a few times after being held down.
But wrapped in a massive amount of Alpha pheromones, he soon grew dizzy and obediently lay still against

Orion.
When Orion looked back at the front, the attrition battle was nearing its end.
“Roar!”
The Giant-Jawed Stag Beetle slammed furiously into the outer defense line
Finishe
Magma rolled off the Infernal Prison Bee’s back Scarlet molten flow carried thick black flame, crushing. down again and again over spirit forms of every color.
Many sections of the defense line were damaged.
Spirit forms shattered one after another.
Even energy weapons began stuttering because their barrels had overheated.
But behind them lay home.
Human civilization could not be allowed to go out
So engineering teams made up of ordinary Betas rushed forward wave after wave, repairing the wall under the fire of the Infernal Prison Bee and the hellhead wasps.
Succeed, or die trying.
Alpha soldiers injected heavy stimulants into their bodies, burning their lives to force their spirit forms out again and again.
