Juggernaut: Rise of the Zerg

Chapter 109 Before Dawn 【Subscribe! ! 】

With the help provided by the Zerg explorers, Sass commanded the warriors to disperse in the jungle, follow the previously explored path, and head towards the deeper lizardman brigade.

At that time, the Zerg engineers carried the three lizardman hunters back to the camp from here.

Even though several days passed and there was a rain, but with the detection ability shown by this group of lizardmen, those traces must not be hidden from them.

Therefore, there is a great possibility that the opponent will follow these traces, and will inevitably meet the warriors at that time, and Sass' plan is to wait for the opportunity to lead the warriors to attack them on their way over.

As expected, the lizardman team continued to move in the direction where the sappers dragged the lizardmen hunters after searching the vicinity carefully and confirming that there were no more clues.

This time so many people were dispatched, and their task was to clean up the threats in the jungle, so naturally they would not evacuate as easily as before.

During their search, Zero overheard the three leading Lizardmen conferring about the Zerg.

They believed that, judging from the footprints left behind, this is indeed a wild beast that has never been seen before, and it should live in groups. Judging from the traces left on the scene, at least seventy or eighty of them participated in the siege , and the attack ability is very powerful.

It has to be said that their judgment was very accurate. Sass indeed mobilized so many Zergs, including warriors and engineers.

Afterwards, the leading lizardmen ordered all the lizardmen to be alert. They had to follow the traces left by the bugs to find their lairs, kill all the beasts, and ensure the safety around the territory.

However, they were completely unaware that Sass had already led a swarm of insects with an unusually large number relative to them, heading towards them.

It is understandable after thinking about it, a strange unknown beast suddenly appeared around the living area of ​​his tribe.

And this beast also attacked and killed their people.This is of course intolerable for an organized and orderly crowd.

At the very beginning, the leader didn't care about the so-called unknown beasts. He thought that everything before was just a lie fabricated by the same family named Xi Li.

However, after he led people to search the land carefully, he immediately understood that Xi Li hadn't lied, but he had never pursued him.

Now, he has ascertained the situation here, knowing that there are at least seventy or eighty such beasts, so this behavior of not chasing them is understandable.

Now that he has come out with a large group of people, there is no reason to return empty-handed.

…………

On the other hand, Sass doesn't know what's going on inside the Lizardman, and he doesn't care.

By the time it got the news from Zero that the lizardman brigade was continuing to come to its own camp, the warriors had already penetrated dozens of kilometers into the jungle.

After hearing the news, it didn't let the Zerg stop to wait for work and wait for the lizardmen to come to their door, but let them continue to move forward.

Its time is precious, and there are too many creatures waiting for it to study, there is no time to waste waiting.

From here to the place where the lizardman team is located, even at the speed of the warriors running at full speed, it will take at least nearly a day.

At that time, this distance almost caused the three seriously injured lizardman hunters to die on the way.

With such a long distance, if you want to wait for the lizardmen who are on the road and need to be vigilant and rest to come over by themselves, you don't know how long you will have to wait.

Therefore, Sass chose to take the initiative. The Zerg had [-] warriors, and even if it was a frontal field battle, there was no reason to be afraid.

The warriors advanced all the way, until they learned that the lizardmen's team was more than ten kilometers away through the explorer's report, and Sass stopped them.

It allows all the Zerg warriors to disperse in the jungle, minimizing the traces of activity, so as not to disturb the creatures in the forest, especially the birds, and be noticed by the other party.Then, it began to wait quietly.

It was already dusk at this time, according to the conclusions drawn from Sass' research and Zero's observations, although this group of lizardmen were called "lizardmen" by Zero, they did not have the ability of reptiles to move in the dark, and at the same time, They are not egg-laying, but viviparous mammals!

Although I don't know why viviparous creatures still have thick scales, but since they exist, they must have their unique meaning.Judging from the memory directly read by Sass, they are undoubtedly mammals.

That is to say, there is a high probability that they will not take the risk of acting in the jungle at night.And at that time, it was the opportunity Sass had been waiting for.

As expected, before the sun went down, this group of lizardmen had already set up their camp. They set up tall tents in the clearing in the forest, collected firewood on the spot, lit bonfires and torches, and arranged for patrolling vigils. personnel.

It took a long time for Zero to calm down after watching them busy in their own camp.

The sky gradually dimmed, and the darkness in the jungle came like a tide, and it was only dispelled by the fire near the lizardman camp.

As the night gradually deepened, the lizardmen in twos and threes returned to their tents after eating their food.

This group of lizardmen obviously had a lot of experience in spending the night in the jungle. They arranged bonfires and torches very well, trying to illuminate as far as possible the farther area without igniting the bushes.

At the same time, the patrols of the night watchmen also had different arrangements. A night watch team of seven or eight people relied on torches to see the entire camp. As long as they didn't take a nap and make mistakes, there would be almost no blind spots.

The vigils are on rotation, and of course that doesn't happen.

But these arrangements are of little significance to Sass.

In the forest at night, there were insects chirping, and it rang out in the silent night, but it didn't seem noisy, it only seemed that the forest was quieter.

In the previous time, the warriors had already completed their exploration of this area, and the beasts that existed nearby had also been thoroughly cleaned up.Therefore, in fact, this group of lizardmen didn't need to guard against any wild beasts at all. The only thing they needed to guard against was the Zerg.

Judging from the defense they set up, if it was an ordinary wild beast, there really was no chance of rushing into the camp. They would be discovered within a short period of time and then be expelled or killed.

However, the Zerg warriors are obviously not in this ranks.

They have evolved from ants all the way, and they have all the dark vision. In their eyes, there is almost no difference between the jungle at night and the day.

These characteristics are simply not possessed by ordinary beasts.

The fire was flickering, reflecting whirling waves not far away, and a large number of warriors had sneaked out of the darkness to the vicinity of the lizardman camp.

Although they also have the instinct to fear fire, but their absolute obedience to Sass and masters can make them overcome this to a considerable extent.

They waited quietly, waiting for Sath's order.

The night is getting darker, the sky is full of stars, and under the canopy of the jungle, there is darkness.

In this darkness, countless pairs of cold, emotionless eyes stared closely at the lizardman camp that was shining with fire.

Until, before dawn!
Sas, who was far away in the camp, gave an order, and all the Zerg warriors rushed towards the camp not far away without hesitation, no longer caring about the movement under their feet.

The huge sound almost immediately aroused the vigilance of the night watch lizardmen, and the sharp shout sounded in the next second.

However, the distance between the bugs was too close, they only had time to utter a cry, and the Zerg warriors had already rushed in front of them, with a kick of their hind legs, they jumped up and rushed towards them.

The next moment, the lizardmen's camp was full of chaos. Amidst bursts of cursing, a lizardman rushed out of the tent with a knife in his hand. Looking around, there was already chaos.

A large number of Zerg rushed into the camp at the fastest speed, and rushed directly into the tent, causing a lot of screams and screams, and in the darkness, there were more bugs coming continuously. shadows.Soon, the lizardman who rushed out of the tent was also entangled by the insects that followed.

This camp with a size of no more than a hundred people has already poured in more than five hundred bugs in a very short period of time. Between the flickering of the fire, countless black shadows swayed, and the screams and curses of the lizardmen were everywhere. Even the bonfire They were all knocked to the ground by the panicked lizardmen, burning branches were scattered all over the ground, and some tents were set on fire, causing even greater panic.

The tent in the center of the camp was the focus of Sass' attention. After the Zerg rushed to the camp, the biggest target was there.

According to the information obtained by the explorers who sneaked into the camp before, there is no doubt that this is where the three leaders of the lizardman team live.

According to Zero's order, Sass needs to capture them alive as much as possible!
Ignoring the screams and fighting around, a group of more than fifty warriors went straight to the tent.

The camp is really not that big, more than a thousand Zergs have invaded so far, and more warriors have surrounded the entire camp on the periphery. Sass does not allow any fish to slip through the net.

Zero's order is to annihilate them all, so it must not let any lizardman have a chance to escape!
Inside the big tent, two of the three lizardmen chiefs were nervously putting on each other's iron armor, while the other was not wearing any defensive equipment at all, and rushed out with a knife in hand, trying to prevent the lizardmen from resisting.

However, as soon as he stepped out of the tent, he was stunned by the chaotic scene in front of him.There are bugs chasing and killing lizardmen everywhere. Lizardmen died under the sharp blades of warriors crying for their parents and mothers. The tents that were set on fire were blazing into the sky. Farther away, pairs of cold eyes showed no emotion. Stare inside.

He fully understood in an instant that this was the existence that attacked his own hunter!
I didn't expect them to have such a large number and such strict discipline. When they rushed into the camp, they even knew how to encircle them, completely cutting off their thoughts of breaking through!

This is a group of intelligent bugs!
This was his last thought before he fell into a coma. Sass carried out Zero's order meticulously. He said that if he tried to capture him alive, he had to capture him alive. It didn't kill the lizardman leader. Due to time constraints, he didn't have time to put on the iron armor. , While he was in a daze, his limbs and tail were easily pierced by the bugs, fearing blood loss and shock, he fell into a coma.

His performance made Sass and Zero a little strange. According to the simplest concept, only the strong can be the leader.Originally thought that the leader of the lizardmen would be very strong, but he was not even as good as the original hunter leader.

The original hunter leader was still screaming and cursing after his tail was chopped off. This one is good. Before the bugs did anything, he was already unconscious. It doesn’t look like a brave man. More like a carnivore among lizardmen.

As for the other two lizardman leaders, they were not so miserable. After seeing the bugs break into the tent, they resolutely gave up wearing iron armor and took up knives to resist with only their helmets on.

However, this is bound to be futile.

It is said to be a big tent, but it is actually only a dozen square meters in size.

There have been more than thirty or forty Zerg warriors rushing into the small space. Although the two of them were extremely brave, they smashed seven or eight insects into the air one after another. head.

But in the end, it was hard to beat four hands with two fists, and soon they followed in the footsteps of the one at the door, but lost an extra tail.

Having captured their leader alive, the rest of the battle became lackluster.

The warriors onlookers once again divided into a team to enter the camp and participated in the battle against the lizardmen, or in other words, the massacre.

They have long been unable to organize effective resistance, and it is only a matter of time before they all die.

Zero didn't pay attention here anymore, because there was no suspense anymore.

Sass did a good job this time, and he is becoming more and more like an excellent commander, especially the concept of being lenient in anticipation of the enemy, which is deeply rooted in his essence.

Regarding the fact that it used all the warriors but failed to use all of them, Zero didn't mean to blame it. This was quite in line with his philosophy, but it was just a few resources, nothing more.

The only thing that made Zero feel a little regretful was that the Zerg didn't have their own scouts.In this battle, a lot of information Sass needs to be relayed by zero, which is very inconvenient, and it may cause delays due to untimely information transmission.

It's hard not to mind this point, so he has made up his mind. After this incident, he must find a way to let Sass complete the research on the Zerg scouts. At least he must do it when Sass commands the Zergs. You don't need to be the mouthpiece yourself.

What's the matter?Is Zerg Overlord so unresponsive?
I always feel that the zero that I have recently lost in value has strengthened my mind.

The engineers transported the three lizardman leaders back to the camp as quickly as possible and handed them over to Sass, who will complete the extraction of the lizardmen's memory and help Zero further improve his understanding of the entire lizardman civilization.

After completing the memory extraction of the lizardman hunter last time, Sass had gained a lot of weight and was completely unable to move by himself, even simple squirming. Obviously, he was greatly affected by it Good thing, the only downside is that it's a bit heavy.

This is not a big problem, even if all its limbs have degenerated, the Zerg can still support it.

As for the enhancement of its ability, that's what Zero loves to see. Its strength does not lie in its combat ability, but in its scientific research ability, its command ability, and its intelligence!
The so-called those who work hard rule people, and those who work hard rule people. Sass is undoubtedly the one who works hard. Although it cannot rush to the front line to fight, its role in the battle is irreplaceable.

…………

The memory extraction this time took about the same time as the previous one. Five days later, Sass completed the memory digestion.Zero also finally learned from it why the lizard man who rushed out of the tent behaved so badly.

That was actually a descendant of a manager in the lizard man's territory!

Only then did Zero suddenly realize that intelligent races are really strange!
　Second update today.
