Xue Hua asked about the latest progress in suppressing the resistance forces in the giant continent world, and Isa immediately reported to him the latest information sent from the insect mother Aranoda.
With the main force of the second fleet having arrived near the planet, the insect swarm troops in the giant continent world have now completely let go of their hands and feet, and have begun to comprehensively clear out the strongholds of the "Pesticide Church" on the surface and underground of the planet.
and repressive activities.
The main original inhabitants of the giant continent world, the Elephant Trunk Tribe, are mammals who are extremely good at digging underground passages. Although they are accustomed to living on the surface, they are also very adaptable to underground life.
It can be seen from Abathur's genetic analysis report that the Elephant Trunk Tribe is a highly intelligent life form that evolved from a "burrowing ape lizard" unique to the planet. This creature was born with the ability to operate both on the ground and underground.
Due to their dual habits of survival, their eyes can adapt well to dark or low-light environments, and their four huge claws can also be used well for digging.
The giant continent people inherited most of the original genetic advantages of their evolutionary ancestors. They were covered with thick phloem tissue covered with thick long hair, their eyes could see in the dark, and their sense of smell was developed enough to distinguish different smells and tastes in the soil.
Odor information released by similar species.
Moreover, the giants use tools and armor, which allows them to dig caves and tunnels much faster than their ancestors.
In addition, the giant people can also endure high temperatures of up to 60 degrees Celsius and low temperatures of about minus 14 degrees Celsius. They can survive tenaciously even under the thick ice and permafrost at the poles of the planet.
But the giant continent people also inherited the weakness of their ancestors, the "burrowing ape lizards". This weakness is also the weakness of most non-aquatic creatures in the giant continent world, that is, they are afraid of water.
The Giant Continent people can tolerate drought. In fact, because of its vast land area, 40% of the surface area of the Giant Continent world is desert and wasteland. Because of this living environment, the Giant Continent people have special ability to tolerate drought.
They are so strong that they can survive for half a year relying solely on nutrients from food without any water supplement.
But they are very afraid of water-filled environments.
Although they also need to take in water, they can only drink it from the mouth, and the amount required is not large, or even unusually small.
The giant continent people cannot learn to swim. Although their lungs can purify the dirty air underground and even filter various toxic gases, they are unable to deal with liquids.
Although their lung capacity is not small, the phloem layer on their body is not as waterproof as human skin.
Once the entire body of a Giant Continent is submerged in water, their epidermis will seep into a large amount of fluid into the body within a few minutes, causing their own blood to be diluted, and large-area edema to occur in the internal organs and brain.
A normal giant man can survive for several years in an arid desert by digging plant roots from the ground to absorb nutrients, but he cannot stay in a bucket of water for five minutes.
So they never take a shower because that would be suicidal to them...
Similarly, when digging underground tunnels, the Julu people may dig through underground water veins and cause the entire tunnel to be submerged in groundwater. However, the Julu people with a keen sense of smell can keenly identify the water vapor and humidity in the air when digging tunnels.
This avoids excavation directions that may lead to water source areas.
But this instinctive sensitivity cannot help them avoid the swarm's tactics.
After learning about the weaknesses of the giant continent people, the insect mother Aranoda was very cruel and poured a large amount of water into every underground stronghold of the "Pest Exterminator Church" that was found. Then when the believers and rebels in the stronghold were because of
When they instinctively panic about water and flee wildly, the insect swarm troops will kill them all without mercy.
By using this tactic, the strongholds set up by the Pest Control Church in the wild and underground soon began to be eradicated in large numbers. Only some strongholds that were deeply hidden or in relatively remote and secretive locations survived by chance.
The Pest Control Church, which suffered a major blow, did not stop there. Their "Pope", the deserter who was "favored" by the will of the world, issued a message to his remaining believers, asking all believers to remain calm and hidden, and to do their best.
Efforts should be made to take waterproofing measures at the base.
At the same time, he also blatantly declared to the outside world that the so-called "Judgment Day" would soon come, when all the zerg that "invaded" their homeland and those high-ranking officials of the Makatata Kingdom who "helped the tigers" would be "gods".
"Punishment" was annihilated.
He "admonished" all the giants and wanted to use this threat to incite them to fight against the rule of the swarm. He also said that if no one did this, they would not be able to get the blessing of the "true god" when the "Day of Judgment" comes.
.
His remarks naturally directly angered the princes and nobles of the Makatata Kingdom. Some Makatata Kingdom officials who had previously been ambiguous or sympathetic towards the "Pest Control Church" began to publicly declare their opposition.
The church.
But his remarks unexpectedly aroused quite a response among the people of the kingdom, and some people from the giant continent began to join their ranks because they were afraid of suffering the possible "divine punishment".
And it turned out that this guy's remarks didn't seem to be completely false threats. Shortly after he made these remarks about "Judgment Day" and "Doomsday", the Overwatch King of the Insect Swarm came to the giant continent.
Violent geological movements and a large amount of traces of spiritual energy accumulation have been detected in many locations around the world.
After further investigation of these anomalies by the insect swarm, it was discovered that there were a large number of underground water veins gathered beneath the ground where these geological activities occurred, and the permeable biological forced evolution characteristics were also observed in the samples collected from the psychic gathering points.
The former will likely trigger large-scale changes in the entire topography of the giant continental world. If these geological activities continue further, then there is a high possibility that the giant continental world will be submerged in the future by an ocean created by a large amount of underground water gushing out.
This will be a fatal threat to most creatures in the giant continent world as well as the Elephant Trunk people.
And that's not all. The monitoring king insect's tracking and monitoring of this series of geological activities also showed signs that these geological activities are extending below the large towns in the Kingdom of Makatata. If these geological activities continue according to the current rules
If the development continues, then the large cities and important towns in the Makatata Kingdom will become the hardest hit areas by the so-called "divine punishment" in the near future!
This phenomenon has clearly shown the control trajectory of the will of the giant continent world. In order to fight against the colonization of the insect swarm, it has begun to cause a huge disaster of world-destroying level!
However, if a planet with advanced intelligent life exists and its world will is determined to destroy all advanced intelligent life existing on the planet, then it is tantamount to destroying itself.
Because only life and the wisdom of higher intelligent life can support the continued existence of the will of the world.
Therefore, in order to preserve the last glimmer of hope for itself, the world will of the giant continent world certainly left a "back door" like "Noah's Ark" in this disaster.
This backdoor is a large number of abnormally gathered spiritual energy aggregates.
