The price of the Thunder Beast is actually not very expensive, it’s just two zeros added to the price in the game...
So the final total price is 30,000 crystals and 20,000 gas each...
Why don’t you go and grab it?!
Xue Hua glanced at his resource pool with a sad and angry look.
Although the worker bees in the mountain base are still replenishing his treasury, due to the consumption of the previously fully charged secondary cannon, there are only 125,000 crystals and more than 80,000 gas in the resource pool.
This also includes some of the resources that must be left to develop the Zerg base and build the Zerg fleet!
How many thunder beasts can be made from the remaining crystals and gases?
Even one of them is barely enough! Hundan!
Xue Hua's face turned red, he grabbed his hair in pain, and stared at the railing in front of him. His eyes were extremely cruel.
"Don't be angry...don't be angry...life is just a drama..."
He gritted his teeth, leaned back on his chair and stared at the ceiling, muttering in a trembling voice.
"Forget it! Labor and management have to bear with it! When we go to the desert, we must find a mine and open a base! These resources are still not enough! Money is required everywhere!"
After a while, he came out of the feeling of pain and disappointment, and began to look at the report Isa had given him.
After the main nest is upgraded, the new units brought will of course not only be the Thunder Beast.
In addition to Ultralisk, the king of land battles, the main ship of the Zerg fleet, the Brood Lord, was also unlocked in this upgrade.
Brood Lords are mutated from Corruptors. If you want Corruptors to mutate into Brood Lords, you must upgrade the Tower Nest to a "Big Tower Nest".
There is no doubt that this matter has been completed by Zagara long before the main nest upgrade was completed.
The Brood Lord is the main biological battleship of the Zerg fleet.
Like the Ultralisk, it is also very different from the creature of the same name in the game.
First of all, the Brood Lord, which exists as a biological battleship, is not just an "air siege unit" like in the game, and it is definitely not a waste of air combat that can only attack the ground but not the air.
Their main cannon is indeed the brood chute on their back, which can launch the small brood worms in the brood leader's body as cannonballs.
This kind of artillery shell has two stages of impact effects. The first stage is the kinetic energy impact generated when it hits the target, and the second stage is the fatal attack from these short-lived Brood Insects!
This weapon behaves like this in the game - launching two small brood bugs to crash into the target, and then the two small brood bugs will begin to attack the target unit.
However, in reality, this weapon is much more dangerous than in the game!
The Brood Lord will directly project a dozen or twelve brood worms at the target or target area each time to bombard the target or target area, and its main gun will not take long to prepare for the second round of attack.
Furthermore, Brood Lords are shown to be unable to counter enemy air forces in the game.
But in reality, this powerful biological battleship is not so weak.
It is indeed difficult for their main guns to hit those high-speed and flexible anti-ship fighters, but they also have secondary guns!
Moreover, the Brood Lord's secondary guns are extremely rare among all warship types (including all forms of warships), and are no less powerful than the main guns.
They are called secondary guns simply because their range is shorter than the chute on the Brood Lord's back, and they cannot be used for ground attacks.
When the brood lords are attacked by enemy anti-ship fighters or small warships, a series of nozzles will open behind the spikes on their sides, and a temporary alienated flying weapon will be emitted from these nozzles.
Broodworm.
These flying brood bugs have much shorter lifespans than their common counterparts, but not only can they fly, they can also fly incredibly fast.
Their bodies are filled with a light and explosive gas. This gas is not as powerful as the acid of poisonous banelings, and it also makes it difficult for them to lower their flying altitude.
But it is definitely enough to deal with fighter planes.
These terrifying flying insects will catch up with the fighter planes or small and medium-sized warships that attack the brood lord in a very short period of time, regardless of the cost, and then ram them head-on.
After a loud bang, a hole will appear on the warship or aircraft, and then the huge negative pressure will flatten or suck all the creatures in the cabin or aircraft out of the cabin.
Moreover, these flying insects never act alone.
By the time you see one of these, your ship is probably crawling with a bunch of them.
When facing small and medium-sized enemy air forces, Brood Lords will respond with secondary guns. When they face heavy enemy air forces or large ships, they will not hesitate to use main guns to fight against the enemy.
boom.
It is very difficult to win this kind of bombardment without paying huge casualties to the enemy.
Because the "cannonballs" fired by the brood lords often kill the entire crew of the enemy warship before they can destroy their main body.
The reason why the Brood Lord is called the main ship of the swarm fleet, in addition to its almighty and powerful combat power, there is another reason, and that is its huge size.
If the Corruptors' fifty-meter-long body can be considered a behemoth.
Then the brood lord's body, with a long axis of three kilometers from head to tail, can definitely be called a "flying island".
Moreover, because the brood lords look very much like the rays in the previous marine life, the horizontal axis of their bodies has also reached 2.8Km. When they move, they look like a small island floating in the sky, which is really terrifying.
.
However, what is more terrifying than their size is their price.
The price of the Brood Lord in the game is 150 crystals and 150 gas each. If the price of the Corruptor is added, it is 300 crystals and 250 gas each.
But now, the price of this big guy is two hundred times higher than in the game!
Each price is 30,000 crystals and 30,000 gas!
Seeing the price, Xue Hua used trembling hands to take the pipe prepared by the hotel nearby for guests in VIP rooms, filled it with shredded tobacco, lit it and took a long puff.
The pungent smell of smoke suddenly choked him and made him cough violently, but this feeling still failed to relieve the pain in his heart...
Although he had been mentally prepared for this, after seeing the price of the Ultralisk, he knew that the Brood Lord, as the main ship of the Zerg fleet, would never be cheap.
However, the price still severely broke his heart...
Damn it costs 10,000 gas more than the Thunder Beast!!!
How can labor and management form a fleet?
At this moment, he wished he could roll onto the bed with his pillow in his arms and cry.
I originally thought that by hollowing out a mountain, I could be said to have escaped poverty and become rich, but I didn't expect that the two new main units would be like this...
"Master, in fact, you don't have to worry so much. The insect swarm units have a very high utilization rate of resources. No matter how much you pay, you will definitely get a reward that is equal to or even exceeds the price. Thunder Beast and Brood Insect Lord,
It's definitely worth the resources you spend.
Moreover, compared to the protoss and humans, the Zerg’s air force units are already quite cheap and high-quality. Do you know how many resources each human Minotaur-class battlecruiser consumes?”
Just when Xue Hua was struggling in pain, Isha, who had been silent all this time, began to comfort her in the mind of the main nest.
"How much?" Xue Hua raised his face from his palms and asked with red eyes.
"According to the intelligence previously obtained by the swarm, the construction cost of the human Minotaur-class battlecruiser alone exceeds 120,000 crystals and 100,000 gas. This does not include the cost of crew training and various modifications and outfitting costs!
But a Minotaur-class battlecruiser is no match for three Brood Lords that have evolved to level 10!
Moreover, the construction cost of humanity's more powerful Gorgon-class battlecruiser is more than 200,000 crystals and 200,000 gas!
Therefore, in terms of resource utilization alone, insect swarm units far surpass human creations, and even protoss ships are inferior to insect swarms in this aspect."
"You can completely form a swarm fleet composed of two brood lords as the main ones, supplemented by several corruptors and mutalisks, to capture the planet where the protoss beacon that Abathur is about to interpret is located, and then destroy the entire planet.
He used the resources for his own use to build a more powerful Zerg fleet to capture the location of the next protoss beacon.
If this cycle continues, not only will the insect fleet become stronger and stronger, but even resources will continue to flow back."
Isha gave a highly implementable suggestion, which also made Xue Hua's tangled mentality much easier.
Indeed, the development model of the insect swarm should have been aggressive. He himself had to be careful in his development because he was temporarily bound to the sanctuary world, but this does not mean that the insect swarm must also be like this!
When it came to the Protoss Beacon, he had only thought about the various technologies of the Protoss and the research on hybrids, but he had never thought about the various resources where the Protoss dormant warehouse was located.
Isha's wake-up call made him suddenly enlightened.
Since the world of Sanctuary is special to him, it is the world he came to after all, and there are people he cares about and does not want to harm. All of this leads to him not wanting to let the insect swarm carry out destructive resource extraction in this world.
So as not to damage the foundation of this world.
But this does not mean that he will be so kind to other planets!
