Juggernaut: Rise of the Zerg

Chapter 349 Zhu Na’s reaction

Zero's feeling is very strange. It is not as "divided" as imagined. The moment he sets his sights there, everything falls into place, as if there are no similarities or differences in the flow of time, and there is no space. The isolation is average.

When it looks there, everything is the same as the real universe.

This was somewhat beyond his expectation, but it seems good now.

Seeing that Ruhr, Sass, and many brainworms in the new universe have already made basic plans, they plan to set up a huge "soul body container" at the original location of the main base to collect all those attracted to the main base. The soul bodies are caught in one fell swoop, where they are aggregated and eventually become "spiritual materials" that are more advanced than physical biological materials.

At the same time, around the main base, using a large amount of resources transported from the main universe, Ruhr is also building a complete military base, where there will be complete "new universe-style" weapons, enough to compete head-on with the physical predators here. Zerg units were stationed, killing all the attracted creatures, and at the same time using the obtained materials to complete more weapons.

These are all functions and defense facilities of the main base, the most important of which is the enemy monitoring device.

In addition to the large-scale high-precision soul body detectors provided by the Colossians that surround the entire main base, there are also new cosmic entity biological detectors developed by the Cerebrates, which have been transformed into Zerg.

These highly sensitive machines can make all creatures in the new universe invisible within a range of 1.6 kilometers.

After testing, similar to the high-energy souls that entered the main universe before, their psychic attack limit range is about 3,400 kilometers. Coupled with their mobility, once the opponent enters the Zerg warning range, they no longer need to "come out". Ruhr of "Field Service" has at least four hours of reaction time. As long as the opponent's number is not too exaggerated, ensuring the safety of the main base is not a problem.

This can be said to be a safeguard measure for the main base, or it can also be said to be a "trap", because Ruhr will actively create noise here at the main base, attracting enemies from around or further away, so that the insect swarm can continue to obtain precious souls. Energy raw materials.

In view of this, they have completed the transfer of a large number of scientific researchers headed by the Colossians. If the main base is breached, except that Ruhr may be in danger, the Zerg will not suffer any more substantial losses.

Of course, the current arrangements of the Zerg are almost all based on the various types of creatures that have been discovered. So far, there are huge "gaps" in the exploration of this universe. Are there more powerful and unpredictable enemies there? It’s still unclear, but it’s not within Ruhr’s scope at this stage.

Regarding exploration, after receiving further material support from the main universe, a large number of small and micro insect species have set off again and again. They will make up for the exploration gap caused by the previous insect swarm due to insufficient resources, and transmit the true situation there back to the main base. It not only satisfies the Zerg's needs for environmental exploration, but also can obtain intelligence for the Zerg's further "hunting" operations.

At this stage, what limits the expansion of Zerg combat units is no longer the amount of material from the main universe, but the accumulation of biological materials in the new universe. Therefore, apart from base construction and daily consumption, most of the materials used by the Zerg here are used for exploration and warning, which also allows Sass and the others to know the specific surrounding environment very well.

Outside the "absolutely safe" range of 1.6 kilometers, the Zerg are still deploying their own biological defense lines. A large number of macro-micro units are distributed here like stars holding the moon, and this range is still expanding, allowing all Enemies approaching here can't hide.

In terms of attack, Sass, as the strongest combat power, is still unable to escape in a short period of time. It leads the most ferocious insect swarm hatched by the Zerg in the new universe. Based on the intelligence obtained from early exploration, it continues to attack from the inside out. The environment around the main base is being cleaned.

The creatures here are always moving, so Sass can never really clear out the enemies around him. Sass doesn't care about this, because the existence of the main base itself is a trap for these fish that slip through the net.

Just like the ancestors in the ancient records of intelligent races, the Zerg here have finally gotten rid of their status as "prey" and have begun to overcome obstacles and establish new territories. The difference is that they don't have to be troubled by the problem of survival, because behind them, the entire main universe is supporting them!

.......................................

After Ruul was "armed" enough to deal with the invasion of a small number of high-energy soul bodies, the resources collected by the Zerg began to tilt towards the brainworms who entered the new universe later. They only needed to reach Ruul's level at most, because they The current task is to establish more bases in more distant places after completing the spiritual strengthening to improve the efficiency of the Zerg's "spiritual acquisition".

As for the increasingly large Zerg joint scientific research team entering here, their mission is to study the birth mechanism and application methods of spirit children. At the same time, they also shoulder the important task of the Zerg analyzing soul bodies, high-energy soul bodies and native creatures.

Today's Zerg only know what kind of power is contained in their bodies, and how their soul body can turn into a high-energy soul body, and finally give birth to a "spirit son", but they don't know where the soul bodies that can be seen everywhere in this universe come from. Come on, how do those physical creatures appear?

Do they have the ability to reproduce? If so, how? If not, how were they born? What are their specific habits? Under what circumstances will they hunt and under what conditions will they launch attacks?

How did a basic soul body with no psychic reaction become a high-energy soul body with powerful psychic power? What special changes occurred during the process, etc., etc., etc., all of these are their research tasks, and these are for the Zerg race Controlling this place also has great significance.

As for other insect species, in addition to development and base defense, they are also tasked with providing them with biological materials and even living materials for research.

Of course, during this period of time, Sass also tried several times to "endow psychic powers" to ordinary intelligent units, but failed without a doubt! For the Zerg, substances that can gain "extraordinary power" are like the deadliest poison to them!

Maybe it’s because the Zerg itself is derived from the substance that led to the birth of the “extraordinary”, or maybe it’s something else, but no matter what, these substances cannot be applied to other intelligent races, which undoubtedly makes the Zerg feel more at ease with their research, and also More conducive to the dominance of the Zerg.

After getting rid of the most basic survival problems, the Zerg have once again entered the fast lane of development. Although the current expansion is not obvious due to combat power issues, as many brain worms gradually acquire the ability to protect themselves, the Zerg will be in this universe. , quickly occupy a place!

There is no doubt that the entire development focus of the Zerg is now shifting from the main universe to the new universe. Everything can be learned just from the position changes of all the Cerebrates in the past thirty years.

Half of them have already entered the new universe, and the rest are more or less moving here, ready to enter and develop. What these changes have brought to the Zerg, in addition to accelerating the development of new universes, is also the strengthening of the Hive Mind and Zero himself in connecting the two universes.

After the Hive Will envelopes both sides of the passage, information exchange is no longer a problem, including research conducted in the real universe, and information exchange with the scientific research team in the new universe. Therefore, gradually, there are Research on special phenomena is developing towards pure observation and evidence collection, and most theoretical speculations are beginning to shift to the new universe.

Time is not a particularly precious resource for the Zerg, but of course it must be used to the best of its ability.

There is still little progress in the research on dimensions. It is as magical as an object that the gods fiddle with. But unlike psychic energy, this phenomenon that is completely based on the main universe must have its scientific principles. It is just that the current research of the Zerg is not deep enough. .

The Velvets have tried their best, but this is no longer a problem that can be solved with hard work. The Zerg are still making full progress in the form of leaps in the real universe. As the unknown becomes known, there are also many strange things that have been noticed. , they are also promoting the progress of Zerg cognition.

Beyond the seemingly endless darkness, there are always stars lighting up in the darkness. Compared to the new universe that has been completely dark so far, this place is bright, warm, and safe.

The endless universe gives endless possibilities. Most of the time, the Zerg's exploration encounters only desolation without much practical significance. Therefore, Zero sets his sights on a known but not completely known existence - Zhuna.

This kind of creature, which is almost everywhere in the entire universe, has never appeared in that star field again after the Zerg opened the channel. According to Zero's previous estimation, with their previous behavior of using their lives to plug the "loopholes in the universe", it is impossible. He is indifferent to this kind of thing, but in fact, in the hundreds of years when the space storm has been raging, a Zhuna clone has never been seen coming here to "calm the universe."

This represents a deviation in the Zerg's understanding of it, and coupled with its inextricable connection with the creatures or soul bodies on the other side of the channel, Zero cannot but care about it.

Zhuna, this kind of creature that the Zerg have encountered since they first left the galaxy of origin, has provided a lot of inspiration to the Zerg in a sense. However, thousands of years have passed, and Zero still doesn’t know their origins. Know exactly how this creature was born.

The swarm of insects has traveled through a thousand star fields, and they are everywhere, as if this kind of creature is the "aboriginal" of the entire universe, everywhere.

Zero is very curious, since there must be some connection between them and the new universe, and some of Zhuna's characteristics are so similar to the soul bodies in the new universe, but the two are actually in a hostile state. , which gave Zero a strange feeling.

Was Zhuna once a creature in the new universe?

Its origin can no longer be verified in the real universe. Now the spiritual energy in the new universe gives the insect swarms an opportunity to leap forward again, and the "spiritual matter" that originally existed in the real universe silently proves that the two worlds There has been communication.

From being attacked by Zhuna, to barely coping, to hunting Zhuna, and finally being able to perfectly contain her, the Zerg's research on Zhuna is also getting deeper and deeper, and this time, Zero plans to bring them into the new universe. Among!

There is no real basis for this behavior. Zero doesn't know what will happen. But for creatures like Zhuna, the Zerg have almost all the research they should have, but they still have secrets that Zero doesn't understand. He can This is the only way I can think of.

Anyway, it can be done without much effort. The capture of Zhuna itself is not difficult for the Zerg. It’s just a try. Why not?

.......................................

Zerg year 4540, this is a memorable time, because in this year, Zero separated the first batch of captured Zhuna and sent them into the new universe.

There was no special reaction at first. All the Zhuna clones were captured individually, and they were not given a chance to merge with each other.

Until they are "taken out" from the special energy container.

Less than nine hours had passed, and Ruhr, who was in the main base of the New Universe Zerg, received dense warnings. Along with his colleagues, there was also information about the massive death of the outermost micro-worm species!

There are countless souls and physical creatures rushing here, and it is very likely that they will combine in the process to become high-energy souls that Ruhr cannot deal with!

Ruer was startled, and it immediately realized that this was caused by Zhuna's appearance here! !

Originally, the Zerg main base had been making moderate "movements" to attract a moderate number of new cosmic creatures.

But now, they are coming, and the number is far beyond the endurance of Ruhr and the Zerg main base!

No one can predict that Zhuna will be so "popular" in this universe. According to Ruhl's estimation, the number of native creatures currently within the Zerg warning range should be all the fish that slipped through the net around the main base plus The total number of native organisms that have not been cleared further away is!

It doesn't know how Zhuna's "information" was transmitted over such a long distance in such a short period of time, but the most important thing at this time is undoubtedly to "contain" it again and avoid this crisis as much as possible!

Sure enough, judging from the news from the monitoring system, after Zhuna's clone was "contained", most of the basic soul bodies seemed to have lost their goals, and no longer had the momentum of crazy advancement before.

Many physical creatures do not seem to be deceived so easily. They are still moving forward, but the goal is obviously no longer clear. Coupled with the large number of souls around them, these physical creatures are quite distracted. The speed suddenly decreased a lot, and the enemies who entered the "absolutely safe zone" attacked by 1.6 Zergs were finally no longer outrageous.

Even so, Ruhr did not dare to take it lightly. The Zerg spent a lot of time and energy building the main base. In addition, transporting resources from the main universe was very time-consuming. Ruhr would never give up unless it was absolutely necessary.
