In order to achieve the will of domination, the entire insect swarm turned on all power and immediately began to get busy.
On the one hand, Zeger issued an order to loosen the lower limit for obtaining Warcraft resources. On the other hand, he allowed more worker bees to devote themselves to the mining of gas mine psionic resources - because they were fully prepared for war, it was impossible to do what they usually do.
generally pursue long-term development.
The opponent is the God Clan!
Therefore, the strength of the insect swarm must be fully increased in a very short period of time!
"What do you think of Owen Rhodes' follow-up information?" Since he focused on the choice of operating hatchery explosives and technological upgrades, Zeger also completely handed over the intelligence reception work to Queen Kun.
"There is good news." Kunquhuihui reported: "The bandit gang that had exchanged fire with the caravan stationed in Yalik Town decided to launch a temporary attack on Yalik Trading Company the night after tomorrow. This is very important to us.
, we can just use them to test the enemy’s reality.”
"Is it that low-life gang called Black Wind Village?" Zeger asked casually.
Owen Rhodes had also reported to him the movements of this group of bandits before, but at that time, the King of Insects had never taken such human organizations seriously.
So Zege thought it was just a small gang of ordinary Taoist bandits.
"Yes." Queen Kun thought so too.
It should be said that in the eyes of the insect swarm, the only enemies in this world that can compete with them on an equal footing are the gods.
At least Queen Kun didn't bother to care about these low-level and backward human natives.
"Well, it is indeed good news." Zeger smiled and said: "But don't expect too much from them. Maybe this gang of people can't even lure out the hidden divine forces in Alek Town."
As he spoke, he pinched his chin again and said hesitantly: "But then again, do you now know how your opponent uses psionic energy on humans? It's a pity that we don't have such conditions now, otherwise we wouldn't
You should give it a try.”
This question immediately hit Queen Kun's weak spot, and the secretary and assistant officer's face immediately turned red.
"I'm very sorry, Master, this is not what I am good at." The Queen's job is actually just to take care of the hatchery. At most, she cooperates with the Master to do some special logistics in combat. They are indeed not very involved in scientific research.
After Queen Kun stopped blaming herself repeatedly, Zege also said that he was just saying it casually.
But in fact, he was still full of worries about something that looked very strange at first sight.
(Everything will be fine until the infected bugs come out, as long as there is a king of infected bugs...)
Zeger turned his attention to the hatchery - after the first three days of unremitting efforts, the hatchery has completed phased upgrades. The life level of the entire insect swarm has been further improved, and worker bees can be used to mutate into incubation structures for higher-level zerg.
The upgrade of the hatchery is also called "upgrading".
Now that the Zerg have reached the second level of technology, the hatchery has been upgraded to a "worm lair".
From the appearance point of view, this big meat ball has become more ferocious and terrifying, and it has become even bigger.
There are also many new units that you can choose to unlock: Hydralisks, Infested Worms, Mutalisks, Corruptors and Swarm Hosts.
These units are the main combat units used in the middle stage of the Zerg, and Zerg can already selectively hatch some of them first.
Why is it only part of it? After all, it still suffers from the loss of no gas resources.
Zeger sometimes rethinks that question - since magic beasts have psionic energy resources in their bodies, will the same be true among human magicians?
Perhaps, this is the secret of the Protoss allowing humans to master high-purity psionic energy?
(I'm really curious. If I have the chance, I should capture a top magician and come back to test it out, but it seems too inhumane. It seems impossible to get the other party to cooperate voluntarily.)
We still have to rely on infection bugs... After Zeger upgraded in the second book, the first building to mutate the worker bees has been determined, which is the "Infection Abyss".
Just by listening to the name, you can guess what it represents...
However, the consumption of psionic energy by infected insects is extremely huge. As special combat units that simply use psionic energy to cast spells, their cost is simply too much for the current insect swarm to bear.
Therefore, Brother Ze's plan is to only need a King of Infectious Insects to assist his special scientific research work, and he will not continue to invest more in it for the time being.
Now that he has limited resources at hand, he has put it back into upgrading his previous troops.
Springtails began to upgrade their "metabolism acceleration" genetic ability.
With this technology, the springtails will grow wings and take off immediately. From a macro perspective, their combat effectiveness will be at least doubled.
The number of the cockroach army following Ricky is also gradually growing.
Just because cockroaches also eat psionic energy and will be the main force in recent battles. Although a single cockroach consumes not much psionic energy, Zeger, who is in a tight situation, still cannot let them reproduce in large numbers, so they have to upgrade their technology to make up for their abilities.
.
"Neural collagen reorganization" is such a technological improvement, which can also increase the movement speed of cockroaches, but not as much as springtails.
After all, it would be unreasonable to allow these big guys in heavy armor to grow wings and launch lightning charges at any time. They would become invincible almost directly. After all, there is some kind of limit law in the so-called pinnacle of biology.
(In addition to these two upgrades that can improve the combat capabilities of our unit, we also need to hatch new queens for Queen Kun as an emergency reserve team to ensure the safety of important subordinates.)
(Also, improving offense and defense is also very important for the Zerg, but unfortunately, I seem to be too late.)
Zeger deeply regrets this.
He would almost never make such mistakes in game battles on Earth. How could he not even make any progress in many preparations on the eve of the war?
But it is a pity that the current world is so outdated that his abilities are forced to be limited.
"No matter what, I have to take action this time." Zeger will not look back. "Theoretically, as long as my action is sudden enough, this first battle won't be too bad. After all, the enemy is clear and we are hidden... and it's still...
The most perfect result is if we can use the infection bug to capture a protoss unit."
Of course, he also understands that this kind of opportunity cannot be forced.
When Zeger was coordinating the overall affairs, he indeed found that he had done his best. It seemed that the rest of the finishing work could only be arranged by God.
All upgrades and troop expansions were carried out smoothly and orderly under the control of Zeger.
In just two days, the insect swarm reached the size of more than 1,300 springtails and more than 200 cockroaches.
In addition, Queen Kun also led a 20-unit Queen Supply Team - these queens will use the last skill they rarely use on the battlefield: feeding.
Feeding liquid allows the Queen to release life essence to treat any creature, almost having a miraculous effect of bringing the dead back to life. It is the last barrier of the insect swarm!
"Then, everything is done and it's just waiting for you." Zeger is now sitting on the mutated throne chair - this seat made of flesh and blood has now become thicker, darker and bloody.
.
Zeger no longer had the slightest resistance to this, but became more and more fond of this feeling of being aloof and in control of everything.
As he said this, he looked at a large group of crawling insects under the sloping hillside in front of him - these insects all understood that the Overlord decided to show its courage, and the opponent was said to be the old rival Protoss.
From the humblest springtail to the most powerful Ricky, everyone is so excited right now that they can't wait for the master to give an order, and they will immediately bloodbath the human territory, force the secret gods out, and have an upright life-and-death showdown!
Naturally, it is impossible for such an army to charge directly from the Black Wind Mountains to Alek Town with great fanfare. Such exposure is undoubtedly the stupidest move. Therefore, "wormhole" technology is needed to fill in the last piece of the puzzle.
As Zeger finished speaking, a worker bee came out of the queue.
Under the watchful eyes of countless people, it began to disintegrate on the carpet.
It won't take long for it to mutate into one of the most cutting-edge transportation tools in the Insect Swarm's second technology - the Insect Path Network.
As a carrier for breeding Nydus worms, which is also the source of wormholes, the worm tunnel network will help the worms to extend their tentacles to any known land very conveniently.
As for the current target, only Alec is under Zeger's gaze.
Zeger waited quietly, waiting for this moment to come.
But this won't be the end, only a beginning, and he knows it.
