Juggernaut: Rise of the Zerg

Chapter 119 Failure
Zero believes that with the melee ability shown by this sea snake, it should be more than enough to contain two hundred foragers.

But before that, he had to get rid of the trouble of the opponent's poison.

This is not difficult, it is nothing more than a little sacrifice. The Zerg has a lot of sea warriors, and it is enough to use them to consume the opponent's toxin. As long as they can kill them, it is worth paying a little price.

The reason why this kind of sea snakes could not be killed in the past was not because of their powerful toxins, but mainly because their speed of swimming in the water was beyond the reach of Zerg warriors in the sea. It's what you want from the Zerg, but it's not too bad.

But today's foragers are already as fast as them or even faster. As long as their toxins are consumed, these sea snakes will no longer have the ability to escape from the Zerg.

So, thirty sea warriors were in front, and many foragers were behind, and they headed for a place where sea snakes might exist.

In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, Zero even arranged for the foragers to disperse and outflank, which shows that there is some resentment in the truth.

Thirty warriors approached leisurely, and Zero watched closely through their vision.In the slightly dim offshore seabed, the light is quite poor, which provides a very good concealment environment for sea snakes, coupled with the strange toxins that are hard to guard against, even if they are prepared, it is difficult to survive.

Sure enough, after swimming forward again for a certain distance, Zero lost the vision of almost all the warriors in the sea almost as quickly as the lights went out in an instant. Only the two last insects survived, one of them Soon after, he followed in his footsteps, and the latter quickly retreated under Zero's extremely fast reaction, thus escaping the catastrophe, and continued to provide it with the only remaining vision.

This naturally means that they are dead, and it also means that the sea snakes are here.

Next, Zero saw an exaggeratedly large mouth rushing out quickly, swallowing the dead Zerg warriors floating in the sea one by one like a greedy snake, and even slammed into the only remaining one rushed.

The other party had already appeared and launched an attack on the swarm, so Zero didn't need to hide anything anymore, the two hundred foragers around immediately accelerated and approached here, surrounding here from all directions.

Under the coordinates provided by the only remaining sea warriors, their distance is rapidly closing.

Almost in the next second, the sea snake that was still rushing towards the sea warrior immediately sensed the danger, gave up the pursuit very vigilantly, and rushed towards one direction, appearing extremely alert.

Although it was extremely cunning, this time there was no room for it to escape.

The nearest forager immediately changed direction and chased after it, followed by more.At the same time, in front of it, there are also five foragers coming towards it.

Sea snakes, which have been feeding on Zerg sea units for several seasons, ushered in the transformation from hunter to prey on this day.

At this moment, the offense and defense changed shape!
Although the size of the forager is far less than that of it, but five or six of them swarmed up, enough to entangle it.

Although the relatively wide scales on its body can provide it with a certain degree of defense, making it difficult for sharp-toothed foragers, but this kind of fighting inevitably affects its escape speed.

After more foragers caught up behind it, it had already lost its chance to escape.

No matter how strong the scales on its body were, they could not support the constant attacks and bites of the Zerg. Although it was trying its best to fight back, and even swallowed a few bugs in the process, but at the same time, the foragers had taken away all the insects on its body. Part of the scales were peeled off vigorously.

The blood was permeating the sea water, perhaps there would be marine creatures that are extremely sensitive to blood coming after hearing the news, but at this moment, no matter how much the sea snake struggled, it would be futile.

Without the protection of the scales, the soft body is almost defenseless against the Zerg!

The foragers swarmed up, and in the next few minutes, the giant sea snake, which was struggling desperately, lost its sound.

Then there is the disposal of the corpse, which is done by the sea warriors behind, and what the forager has to do is to hunt the next one.

The warriors will send the dead sea snake back to the Zerg base camp as quickly as possible, so that Sass can expand his biological knowledge base, hoping that one day it will be able to integrate and use it on the Zerg itself.

So far, if insects are counted, Sass has completed nearly a hundred kinds of biological research, some of which have complex structures or have some special functions, which will consume a lot of time, and insects with simple structures such as explorers , it will be completed quickly.

Undoubtedly, this ability of Sass will definitely be the key to the Zerg becoming stronger in the future. If possible, Zero wants more brain worms to speed up the process of research and collection with Sass.

However, it is unknown when the mysterious substance will be accumulated, and the second brain worm seems to be forever far away.

…………

The lizardman exploration team that went deep into the jungle was surrounded by the Zerg and died without any reaction at all. In the end, some useless information was added to Sass' vast memory.

Today's Sass has been strengthened again and again, and it doesn't take as much time to read the lizardman's memory. It only takes a few hours to complete one of them.

But this information is not completely useless. Through them before, Zero knew what Sommer did, and basically knew what information he had about the Zerg.

- He said it all himself.

Although he was a little surprised at how he discovered the explorer's surveillance, since it had been exposed, Zero didn't mean to investigate it carefully. People still cannot escape the surveillance of explorers.

This is enough to show that apart from Sommer, even if the other lizardmen knew the information, they would have no way to guard against it in this environment.

Zero had no intention of chasing Sommer. After such a long time, he would definitely not be in his original position. With the size of the jungle, it was too easy to hide an experienced lizardman hunter.

However, at the same time that he had such an idea, a young lizardman who moved carefully but was very sensitive and quick suddenly appeared in the Zerg's field of vision, following the traces left by the previous lizardman exploration team with a solemn expression. Move forward quickly.

It was Sommer!

From the looks of it, it seems to be following the exploration team.

Although in the previous time, the other party had launched three substantial attacks on the swarm and caused certain casualties, but since that night, Zero has indeed never seen him again, and now he has appeared again up!

He watched with great interest as Sommer kept moving forward. At the same time, a group of warriors who were closest to him rushed out of the cave and rushed towards that direction. There were thousands of them.

"Is it a mistake? Or...a trick?" Zero didn't care, any conspiracy would look ridiculous in the face of absolute strength.

The swarm has already set off, and will soon reach his current position. As long as he moves forward or hesitates for a while, there will be no chance of escaping.

Just thinking about this, Zero saw him suddenly staring at a place where the explorer was hidden nearby, then his face changed drastically, and he turned around and ran back.

Sommer is actually not a good actor. His long-term reticence has made his face stiff and forced to show this expression. Even Zero, who knows little about lizardman body language, can easily see it.

It's so fake!

Zero gave an evaluation in his heart, but this did not affect the Zerg's continued pursuit.

Even if he knew it was a trick, he didn't want to let the lizard boy go.

Zero is quite curious about the only lizard man whose name he has remembered so far.

He really wants to know how the other party did the previous series of things, and what kind of ability they have, is it a special function or something else?
Even if it wasn't because of the hostile stance of the two sides, but just to satisfy his own curiosity, he would still capture it back.

Seeing Sommer performing hard in the sight of the explorer, disappearing as if suddenly aware of the surveillance of the swarm, and reappearing as if he hadn't noticed, he felt a little funny in his heart.

Regarding his plan, Zero is not clear, but this does not prevent him from sending out swarms to catch him.

Although he escaped one step earlier, it was impossible for him to leave no trace in such weather.

Although the Zerg Warrior's speed was limited in the cold weather, it was still faster than him. According to zero calculation, it was enough to catch him on the way out of the jungle.

Of course, Zero didn't think that Sommer's ability would leave such a loophole, but he didn't bother to guess. Let's see how he responds.

With a zero mentality, since he dared to provoke the swarm, if he could escape, it would be his ability.

No matter what his purpose is, even if he is outrageous enough to design and wipe out the chasing swarm of thousands of bugs, Zero will admit it, and he can afford to lose one or two thousand Zerg warriors.Otherwise, if you can't, then stay and let Sass treat you well, it's only fair.

Sommer quickly escaped from Zero's field of vision, but it didn't matter, the footprints on the ground would point out the direction for the swarm, even if it was likely to lead to a trap, Zero was not afraid.

He really wanted to see how the other party would kill the thousands of insects this time.

What Zero didn't know was that Sommer didn't mean to kill all the bugs, and he didn't have this ability at all. What he wanted was just a corpse to prove the authenticity of the information.

Sommer, who kept fleeing, finally got into a small mountain crack, and the swarm followed his footsteps soon after.

Without any hesitation, they rushed in there like ants returning to their nests, followed closely, and the distance between the two sides was constantly shortening.

Zero instinctively realized that something was wrong. In such a small environment, the opponent was likely to be prepared, and a large number of insects could not use their hands and feet at all.

Although the current He can fully afford the loss of such a large-scale insect swarm, he definitely has no intention of letting the other party play tricks.

For a while, Zero actually felt a little bit hard to get off.If you go on chasing, judging by the strange behavior of the other party today, it is clear that you are prepared, and there is a very high possibility that there will be some trap waiting for you. Knowing this, if you continue to chase, you will look stupid.

However, he has already chased him to this point, and now that the bug swarm has been withdrawn without success, the previous pursuit has become a joke, which makes him even more stupid.

Finally, after a little thought, Zero gave the order to divide the troops.A hundred or so warriors were left to pursue in the gradually narrower cracks, and the remaining swarms all evacuated, and followed the external traces of the cracks in the mountain to find all the entrances and exits, blocking Sommer's escape route.

In this way, even if he achieved the purpose of eliminating the swarm, he would only lose dozens or hundreds of worms. Once he blocked him from the outside, no matter what purpose he had, it would be nothing more than empty talk.

This time, however, both sides miscalculated.

First is zero.Since Sommer chose this place, he must have already found a way out. He didn't block his way from the outside, and finally let Sommer escape. No matter how carefully he asked the swarm to search, he couldn't find it again. The trace of the other party can only return in vain in the end.

And Sommer also failed to achieve his goal of bringing back at least one bug corpse. This time, his adventure failed.

Not only was he unable to bring back the insect corpses, but under the frantic pursuit of the insect swarm in the last stage, there was no room to move around in the jungle. His right arm was almost cut off from the middle by the warrior's sharp legs, and his whole body was covered with Large and small wounds, even the face that seemed to be able to remain indifferent forever was cut from the left side of the face across the bridge of the nose to the corner of the mouth.That blow almost killed him, and the blood flowed across the face, making the originally calm face even more ferocious.

In the end, he had to ignite the kerosene he had prepared in advance, and while preventing the swarm from chasing him, he followed the cracks extending in all directions, and disappeared from Zero's vision in an extremely embarrassing manner through the flames that continued to spread towards the swarm.

With the injuries he is suffering now, whether he can survive in such an environment is still a question, and it should be impossible for him to reappear in a short time.

Sommer's adventure plan this time ended in failure. Not to mention that he failed to achieve his goal, he even almost got himself involved.

On the other hand, Zero also had a feeling that he was being tricked. Although the swarm had almost killed Sommer, the fire that had not been extinguished for a long time blocked the swarm's final pursuit. In the end, he couldn't find the other party, and he must have dealt with it accordingly, hiding in the mountain with cracks extending in all directions, even if Zero led the swarm to search, he couldn't find him.

In the end, he was so mobilized and mobilized, but he only got such a result. He was escaped by him again and again, and Zero was also quite depressed. Although he was only a lizard boy, his actions could hardly affect the overall situation, but he failed to capture him alive. After entertaining him to see what secrets he has, Zero is still unwilling.

However, in the end, the opponent is more disadvantaged. Even if he can survive, at least in the short term, it is impossible for him to suddenly appear to add trouble to Zero.
