Stukov stood quietly in front of the bulkhead of the Protoss ship, listening expressionlessly to the surrender terms of the Protoss inside.
Afterwards, he was silent for a moment, with a thoughtful look on his face.
An insect mother walked up to it and suggested to it: "Commander, you cannot agree to his conditions. He is a protoss and an enemy of the insect swarm..."
"This matter is not decided by you, nor is it decided by me!" Stukov looked back at the insect mother, with an oppressive light in his eyes.
"The insect swarm is the Overlord's insect swarm. Whether to accept the surrender of the protoss or not depends on the Overlord's approval... Set up a psychic signal to strengthen the force field. I want to report the status of the fleet to the Overlord and inform him of the events that occurred here.
"
"As you command, Commander."
The insect mother bowed, stepped back, and went to organize the psychic units to build a signal strengthening field.
If Xue Hua's psychic level has any impact on the insect swarm, then the biggest impact is the coverage of the main hive mind.
The former Queen of Blades, Sarah Kerrigan, had such powerful psychic abilities that the main hive mind spread out to cover several star regions, but Xue Hua is obviously not able to do that yet.
At most, he can only spread the scope of the main hive mind to the entire Sanctuary First World, and this can only be done with the help of Leviathan.
So once the insect fleet leaves the sanctuary world, it means that Xue Hua can no longer communicate with the fleet commander at will.
However, what is more mysterious is that although the fleet has escaped the influence of the main hive mind, they still share the resources in the resource pool.
Even Isa, who is in charge of Leviathan, cannot explain this problem clearly. It can only know who has used the resources in the resource pool and how much has been used.
As for how it is used or what it is used on, as long as the other party leaves the scope of influence of the main hive mind, it cannot detect it.
Of course, if necessary, Xue Hua can still order it to ban a certain unit's resource calling rights, so that the unit that has been banned will not be able to call resources from the resource pool in any way.
However, the resources they collect will still automatically flow into the resource pool.
This is equivalent to cutting off the economic lifeline of other commanders, and is also the fundamental reason why Xue Hua was so confident in throwing the newly awakened Stukov outside the sanctuary world.
As long as nothing goes wrong with him, there will be no rebels among the Zerg.
However, the resource pool only has this function, and it cannot allow Xue Hua's main nest mind to break through the obstacle of distance.
So if the distance is too far, senior commanders will have to use this ancient stupid method if they want to contact him.
That is to say, the psychic power emitted by high psychic units gathered together is used as a bridge to strengthen the commander's own psychic diffusion range, allowing the commander to smoothly connect to the main hive mind.
This method is quite troublesome to use, so commanders generally will not use this method unless they really need to inform the master of the situation.
But the matter in front of it is quite troublesome to deal with. Although it is not impossible for Stukov to handle it independently, it is easy to inadvertently violate the wishes of the master, so it would rather be more troublesome and let the master deal with it in person.
Make decisions on this issue that may affect the Zerg's future strategic layout.
...
When Xue Hua received Stukov's psychic signal relayed by Isa, it was already the third day of the caravan's departure. They had already crossed the vast grassland on the mountain border and entered a country full of gravel.
The dry land of the East.
Not far in front of the caravan, a giant fortress straddling two hundred-meter-high cliffs has slowly revealed its majestic face in the increasingly bright light.
That is the last line of defense that isolates the Khanduras region from the Lugaoin Desert - the Eastern Pass.
This fortress was built in the early days of Hell's invasion. At that time, it was jointly funded by the Church of the Blind Eye, the Lugoin royal family, and the fleeing nobles of Khanduras. Later, the Horadrim mages also came to help.
The walls of the fortress are imbued with magic that recognizes levels and the power of hell.
This magic will block any creature carrying the power of hell from the fortress, and will also display the professional level of the person who passes through.
If the person passing through is indeed a professional and the level is less than level 12, then the magic on the fortress wall will automatically prevent that person from entering.
However, this rule only applies to professionals. Mercenaries and ordinary people do not have this restriction. Otherwise, the trade channel between Lu Gaoyin and Rogge's camp would have been cut off long ago.
Warev's caravan arrived at the Eastern Pass at noon on the third day of the journey. They would spend a whole day here to resupply and rest. This was also the last supply point before crossing the huge and dangerous desert.
.
Xue Hua and other professionals were also told that it was best to buy some necessities needed in the desert. Warev especially told him to change out of the thick cotton velvet clothes he was wearing, otherwise he might be in trouble as soon as he left the pass gate.
It will be dried into dried meat.
However, Xue Hua did not need to handle these trivial matters personally. Annie, who was all-powerful in housework, took care of it. Through this time, he also began to learn more about the current situation of the insect swarm fleet from Stukov.
Although Stukov's psychic signals were somewhat unclear due to the long distance, Xue Hua still understood the general situation he wanted to report.
It was nothing more than destroying a protoss reserve base that had crash-landed on an asteroid. The loot was unknown, but it was all sealed in that protoss colony ship.
Moreover, there are only two protoss phase technicians in the entire protoss reserve base. These two phase technicians are still partners. Moreover, it seems that the female protoss is injured or something and needs to be taken care of. The male protoss wants to ask the insect for some reason.
The group surrenders...
Well, the protoss who surrendered to the zerg...
Xue Hua rolled his eyes~
Did you agree to fight for El?
However, Xue Hua also had to admire Stukov, this guy is really good at Tai Chi.
If it does not notify Xue Hua and directly handles the matter on its own, then no matter how it handles it, Xue Hua will not interfere too much.
Because he himself has a very contradictory attitude towards the protoss. He wants to get the protoss' technology, but he doesn't really want to fight with them.
Because the Protoss itself is also a very powerful race, their technology was directly transferred to the Xel'Naga. This level of technology is undoubtedly of great reference and research value.
What's more, Xue Hua still has an incomplete method for making a hybrid. If he wants to make a hybrid according to this method, in addition to completing the method, there is also a hurdle that cannot be bypassed no matter what.
, that is the gene of the protoss.
And how to obtain the genes of the protoss?
Apart from fighting with them, I'm afraid there is no other way to obtain such a large number of genes.
Therefore, Xue Hua's current attitude towards the protoss is in a vague state of war and peace, which is why he issued such a vague order to Stukov.
That is to say, they can be destroyed or captured alive.
He actually hoped that Stukov would create a fait accompli, and then he could use this fait accompli to convince himself.
Unfortunately, Stukov actually kicked the ball straight to his feet again.
At the end, he also acted like you are the boss and you get to choose.
