Juggernaut: Rise of the Zerg

Chapter 35 War Preparations (Seek to Read More!!)

However, Zero calmed down quickly, not to mention that he was unable to match the termite group with his current strength, but it must have been in the hands of termites for such a thing that can cause mutations for a long time.

For such a long time, they only have some soldier ants that can move in winter and more vicious flying ants. In addition, the terrifying number of ant colonies are more threatening, and they have not been found to show any other signs. s method.

This shows that either they have not fully grasped the thing that can cause the ant colony to mutate, or this thing is not that powerful.

If it's the former, it's fine, but if it's the latter, there's nothing you can do.

Of course, it's still too early to think about this. Although the termite army is restricted by something and can't walk out of the forest on a large scale, it can only send elite troops to harass the ant colony, but its strength is beyond doubt.

To defeat this enemy, Zero had to be fully prepared.

His tactics are actually very simple, that is, by accumulating enough food, through a short period of violent soldiers, and then taking advantage of a large enough number, to offset the recovery speed of possible termites, to consume them little by little. number, and ultimately achieve the goal of completely eradicating them.

Since Zero doesn't know how many termites there are, he needs to make as many preparations as possible without knowing it.

And this is also the biggest difficulty of the whole plan, because once the food reserves are insufficient, all previous efforts will be wasted.

The two pastures are running at full capacity under the careful care of the ant colony, and two newly discovered plants suitable for ants' food have also been planted on the ground in a large area.

Everything is paving the way for the war that is destined to come in the future. With the efforts of the ant colony, the amount of food in the underground nest is increasing every day.

At the same time, in the dark and damp deep underground, the number of mutated ant queens covered in ice blue is also increasing.

Under Zero's instructions, after they grow into adults, they will not immediately start to develop their own colony, but will continue to increase the number of queen ants at a slow but continuous speed.

In Zero's plan, the special soldier ants they hatch will be the vanguard and main force of Zero's autumn offensive against termites in the future. In order to produce enough soldier ants in a short period of time, Zero needs enough queens.

At the same time, in addition to satisfying the worker ants for food production, the ant colony began to actively reduce its own number.

The queens no longer produce new eggs to supplement the daily loss of ants, but gradually fall into hibernation.

This kind of operation that violates the instinct of biological reproduction is naturally an order of zero.

One is to streamline the ant colony, while retaining sufficient combat power, while minimizing the consumption of the ant colony itself, so that more food can be accumulated as quickly as possible.

Second, because there is an upper limit to the number of ants that an ant colony can support daily, once a certain threshold is exceeded, the amount of food obtained will not increase but decrease.

Therefore, reducing the number of common ants, while saving food, is also to produce a group of special soldier ants in autumn, and obtain more food with their stronger combat power and mobility.

Zero is very concerned about the possible existence of termites that can affect the genes of the population.If this unknown thing does have this ability, it almost opens the door to a new world for him and the ants!
Perhaps before this, Zero was just puzzled by the unique behavior of termites.

The choice to expand to the forest is also entirely out of the needs of ethnic group development.

But it is different now.

The need for the development and growth of the ethnic group is one thing, and Zero's own curiosity about this thing and desire to get it is another.

What's more, the existence of this thing itself is constantly threatening the zero ant colony, and it can indeed bring huge and unimaginable benefits to the ant colony.

Even if it is only one percent or even one thousandth of the efficacy of zero imagination, it may even be a consumable, or it has been completely consumed by the termite colony. Before its state is determined, its attraction to zero is infinite!

Therefore, Zero really made up his mind to destroy the termite colony and get this thing!
From this point of view, no matter how much material the ants have accumulated, he still feels that it is not enough.

Consuming this termite colony with tens of millions of people in absolute numbers, and there may even be unknown mutant termites among them, this is destined to be a protracted war of attrition. Who can sustain it for a long time? will be able to win.

The winner occupies the forest and owns the odd thing that might exist, while the loser eats the dust and disappears.

Of course, this failure may not threaten the survival of the ant colony, but no one can guarantee whether this group of termites will mutate again one day, thus overcoming the barrier of the forest and rushing into the grassland.

Zero is sure that once this happens, the ants should not be their opponents, even if the ants have the home court advantage.

Because termites do not exist, or there is almost no food problem, once they rush out of the forest, facing the endless army of termites, the ants can only drink their hatred and die.

Therefore, Zero must also make the best preparations to destroy the termites before they may gain the ability to rush out of the forest!
Autumn goes to spring, the sun rises and the moon sets.The weeds on the prairie turn green, turn yellow, turn green again, and repeat.

There are more and more fruit tree seedlings dotted among them, and they grow taller, gradually mature, blossom and bear fruit.

Seven years passed in a flash in the busyness of the ant colony. After seven years of continuous work, the underground of the entire grassland was full of twists and turns and ant nest passages and breeding grounds.

All kinds of underground creatures are almost extinct. In seven years, under the excavation of the ants, there were even two ground subsidences caused by over-excavation.

At the same time, after seven years of uninterrupted accumulation, the food of the ants has been piled up in the ground like a mountain, and even with zero deliberate control of the number of ant colonies, more food is still being transferred and stored deeper underground.

However, the storage of food has its upper limit after all, even if Zero has tried his best to find a dry and cool environment underground, it can't prevent the food from gradually starting to spread and disappear on a large scale.

At the same time, this also means that the food accumulation activities of the ant colony have almost reached a limit, and can no longer increase.

So, this means that the time for war has come!
