I Am The Swarm

Facing the mechs of the Daibo Civilization, the size advantage of the Primordial Bodies was overwhelmingly evident. Watching the tiny figure charging toward it, the Primordial Body raised one of its massive tentacles and swung it forward.

The tentacle, over two hundred meters in length and nearly thirty meters in diameter at its thickest point, carried an earth-shattering force as it lashed through the void toward the mech.

Blue arcs of electricity crackled along the tentacle, not only enhancing its defense but also increasing its destructive power and speed. The speed of this strike was so immense that, if it had occurred within an atmosphere, it would have easily created a sonic boom.

Facing this attack, the mech pilot remained relatively calm. During the years of travel from the Daibo Civilization’s territory to the frontlines, their home base had continuously upgraded the technology of their mechs.

Although they couldn’t replace the equipment of the mechs already on the frontlines, they had developed a simulation program based on the Swarm’s previous combat data, collaborating with other civilizations obsessed with virtual worlds.

This simulation program was simple in function: it created virtual mechs identical to those on the frontlines and pitted them against the Swarm’s Primordial Bodies in a virtual environment.

Unlike hardware, this program could be transmitted directly to the fleet via quantum communication devices during their journey.

In the first few years after arriving at the battlefield, these mech pilots—or rather, model enthusiasts—were awakened from hibernation and began training in the virtual program.

Then, upon reaching the frontlines, they expected to engage in battle immediately. However, the Yuntu Civilization’s defeat and Mowei’s efforts to buy ten years for the Rashudia Race meant that the Daibo mech pilots had an additional decade to train.
