Juggernaut: Rise of the Zerg

Chapter 58 Survival from Desperation (Please read more!!)

Due to the limited number of explorers, during this day's exploration, they only had time to explore half of the south and east side. The result was disappointing, and they still had nothing to gain.

Zero cleaned up his mood, and when the sky lighted up again, he sent explorers again. Today, they will complete the exploration of the remaining part of the southern and eastern side of the mountain range, and it is also Zero's last exploration in the southern area of ​​the mountain range.

If there is no place he wants here, then he can only look for it on the mountain range, or in the north of the mountain range.

As for the vicinity of the mountainside, Zero had completed the exploration as early as the first day. The soil here was extremely scarce, mostly rocks, and the only remaining soil was not suitable for planting crops.

From Zero's point of view, there is a high probability that there will be no suitable places on the mountainside, because this entire mountain was still the territory of the ant colony last year, and his vision has swept here countless times. , there is no place where crops can be planted - if there is, the original ant colony will not let it go, and it will inevitably be filled with plants.

The explorers still haven't found a suitable spot on the last land in the south, which means that half of the island is completely hopeless.

In the middle of the night, Zero turned his gaze to the north, where everything started.

"I hope there will be a good result..." Zero felt very heavy.

Now that the entire southern region has been explored, the situation is much more severe than imagined.

Even if the ant colony can survive this time, it may be difficult to reach the level of last year.

Zero knew very well in his heart that it was a fluke to be able to continue the survival of the ant colony, and he shouldn't expect more.

But looking at the once glorious ethnic group turned into this, when even the basic living conditions could not be guaranteed, he still couldn't help feeling a little desolate for himself and for the ant colony.

Since his appearance, all the actions of the ant colony have been under his command. He is the veritable master of the ant colony, and no individual will disobey his orders.

But now, He failed to lead this small group to glory, but instead fell into such a situation, and the central thoughts were so complicated that it was hard to describe.

It was dawn again, and Zero let the explorers fly again.

This is already the fifth day of his exploration, and today's task is to explore the area below the northern mountainside.

Last night, Zero thought about it all night amidst anxiety and emotion. In the end, he stabilized his emotions and rearranged his thoughts.

On the basis of the current continuous exploration, He divided the unexplored area into two large parts.

One is the area in the northern part of the range from the mountainside down to the edge of the forest.

After careful thinking and analysis, Zero finally believes that there is the greatest possibility of a suitable space for plants to live here.

Zero thought about it, and finally recalled the scene when the disaster happened.

After the earthquake at that time, the huge tsunami came from the south of the island, that is to say, the huge waves at that time crossed the southern plain and hit the mountain directly.

And the terrain of this island is very special, the north and south are very flat land, only in the middle is a mountain peak that gradually rises from the east and west cliffs to the middle. The slope suddenly becomes larger and very steep.

The tsunami came from the south, that is to say, when the huge waves rolled up by the tsunami hit the island, they must have flooded the southern plain first, then hit the mountains, and then passed through the north Grassland, eventually gradually receding.

In this disaster, the mountain range actually acted as a barrier for the northern grasslands, and the most severely affected area was precisely the southern part of the mountain range that Zero had focused on exploring before!

However, Zero didn't think of this before. He just wanted to explore the entire island, maybe he could find a suitable space. He didn't think it through at all, so he was obsessed with the carpet search.

But now, after a night of thinking, Zero has divided the entire northern region into two parts. Apart from the fact that the northern plain may be less affected, if there is a place that Zero needs on the entire island, then the most likely place is the mountainside Next to the area above the plains.

Because after the waves rushed up the mountains, they were hindered by the mountains, and there must have been a space in the northern part of the mountains that would not be polluted by sea water.Even if not, coming here will not be as serious as the south, and the terrain here is relatively high. After the sea water rushes up here, it will recede soon and will not stay here for a long time, so its pollution to the underground soil will be reduced. a lot of.

If this is the case, then there must be more or less certain areas suitable for plant survival.

Correspondingly, if there is no such thing here, the possibility of meeting the conditions on the northern grassland is very small.

Therefore, after Zero figured it out, he immediately dispatched almost all the explorers to search this area carefully. At this time, he didn't care about food consumption. Part of the food is also worth it, and it doesn't really make much sense to keep it if you can't find it.

After the initial breeding, there are currently more than 300 explorers in the cave, and this time almost all of them came out.

They gradually explored down the mountainside along the foothills. Because of the small number, this area is still divided into three parts, the west, the east and the center.

Among them, the most likely place is the central part. After all, the mountains here are the highest. If the mountains can block some sea water, then this is undoubtedly the most likely place.

Therefore, it is here that the explorers first searched.

The density of their exploration is very high, and there is an adjacent explorer almost twenty or thirty centimeters apart, exploring from top to bottom like a net, unwilling to let go of any possibility.

Under the exploration of this intensity, if such a place really exists, it must be impossible to escape Zero's vision.

Goodness, this time, Zero's analysis was finally not in vain.

After the explorers descended a certain distance from the foot of the mountain, Zero was pleasantly surprised to find that where there was originally a dense forest, but now there were only broken branches and broken leaves, some small green shoots were quietly protruding from the ground. .

Some of them are seeds buried deep in the ground by trees, some are barely surviving rhizomes, and some are seeds of weeds.

Dots of greenery adorn this gently sloping land, and at the same time light up Zero's eyes.

"Finally found!!"
