Juggernaut: Rise of the Zerg

Chapter 84 "Poison Domain"

Although they did not actively attack the ant colony, and behaved like a vegetarian, this did not mean that their attack power was weak.

They have eight long legs more than one meter long, which can easily pierce the outer armor of the guardian. With the current defense ability of the ant colony, no arms can resist this kind of attack.

Moreover, they also have the unique skill of spiders-spinning silk!
This kind of silk is not ordinary spider silk, its toughness is very strong, but this does not cause trouble to the ant colony, the trouble is, this kind of silk has very strong stickiness!
Once the ant colony touches this kind of spider silk, it will be stuck almost immediately and cannot move, and this kind of spider's ability to spin silk is surprisingly strong. Zero once sent an ant colony to test it. During this period of time, with the help of the surrounding dense trees, the spider silk it spits out can completely wrap itself, no matter how the ant colony charges, it will be helpless.

Of course, if they had only this ability, Zero would have led the ant colony to completely submerge them with the sea of ​​insects tactics.

The most deadly thing is that they can secrete a kind of venom, and this venom is not secreted by them actively, it is more like a natural phenomenon similar to sweating.

This venom has no effect on themselves or even plants, but it is absolutely fatal to all animals.

At the beginning, a guard who was in charge of exploring the forest only got some stains on his feet, and the entire body of the insect was completely softened within a few seconds. After its death, its body looked like a leech when lifted, as if it had lost all its vitality. support.

Zero doesn't know what the reason is, but it is obvious that such a huge spider exists here and has not become extinct, obviously there is a reason.

This kind of toxin is like targeting bugs, whether it is the thick carapace of the guardian or the sharp forelimbs of the assassin, once touched, they will all soften into a puddle of mud.

What's more troublesome is that due to the constant secretion of this toxin year after year, the environment they live in has been completely saturated with this toxin, forming a "poison domain".

This poison domain covers half of the forest. Zero has tried many methods, no matter whether it is from the air or underground, there is no way to enter the depths of the forest smoothly. He has only fought against a few of them at the edge of the forest a few times, but so far , without any results. Instead, the ant clan suffered a lot of casualties in order to explore this vast forest.

But Zero didn't give up. While thinking about how to deal with it, the ant colony didn't stop expanding in other directions, and finally formed an encirclement circle around the entire "poison domain".

It's just that it's actually difficult to define who is surrounding whom in this encirclement circle.

Zero doesn't believe that there are enemies in this world who have absolutely no weaknesses. He feels that this group of giant spiders must have some weaknesses, but the ant colony hasn't discovered them yet.

However, no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't imagine how the ant colony would break into the poison domain and fight hand-to-hand with the huge spider that was covered in venom and could spin silk.

"Poison Domain" is powerful, and Zero has experienced it countless times.Whether it is an air unit or a land unit, once it touches it, or even stays in this area for a little longer, the whole body will soften, as if all the hard outer armor has melted, and it cannot survive at all.

In fact, in that area, apart from plants and microorganisms, there is only this kind of organism.

Speaking of which, the main reason why Zero is so obsessed with fighting this group of spiders that seem harmless to humans and animals is that apart from the fact that they occupy an extremely large forest area, the main reason is that they covet them.

As for what to covet them, it is already self-evident.

Nothing more than their eggs.

When gradually occupying these seven islands, Zero has directed the ant colony here to deliver several times other unseen insect eggs to the initial island. After these eggs hatched in the cave, they also produced certain mutations. .

But unfortunately, after the queen ants eat, there is no meaning of evolution. This is obviously because the evolution factors in these mutated insects are not enough to complete the sixth evolution of the queen ants. Therefore, Zero needs more eggs To fill this vacancy, and in the entire archipelago, there is only the egg of this huge spider that he has not yet obtained.

Moreover, this kind of spider is so huge. From the most simple point of view, if they mutate, there must be more evolutionary factors in their bodies. Zero has an intuition in his heart. He feels that if he can eat this kind of spider in the future The mutated body must be able to evolve again!

That's why He cared so much about the spiders in this forest, trying his best to take them down and get their eggs.

Unfortunately, at present, it seems that He has nothing to do.

However, Zero will not give up.Because apart from here, at least in a short period of time, there is no way for the ant colony to collect enough eggs for the queen to evolve again.

…………

The exploration on the sea has never stopped for a moment. A large amount of hydrological information has been sorted out bit by bit. The information of the surrounding sea area is becoming more and more clear. Even in the area where the survey has been completed, which sea area has easy-to-catch food, which piece There are dangerous predators in the sea area, etc. This kind of information is marked in detail.

But they just didn't find any more land, which is the main reason why Zero is obsessed with these "harmless to humans and animals" spiders.

"How to defeat them?" Zero asked himself this question countless times.

In fact, he has answers in his heart, and there are more than one, but with the ability of the ant colony, there is no way to implement them all.

As the saying goes, water and fire are ruthless, and I feel that this group of spiders should not be able to cope with floods or fires. This is probably their weakness.

But if you want the ant colony to accomplish these two things, it is better to let them directly use the sea of ​​insects tactics to exhaust the poisonous poison in the "poison domain". If the number is large enough, it is not impossible to complete this matter.

But want the ant colony to create a flood or play with fire?That is really harder than climbing to the sky.

There is plenty of water here, but the problem is how can the ant tribe cause a flood with the ability of the ant clan?By tsunami?

Although Zero has already had a little guess about the periodicity of earthquakes, but he is not completely sure whether it is what he guessed.

In addition, He has no way of predicting when the next earthquake and tsunami will come.

　Good morning and happy holidays everyone! !

　　I posted about the work last night, but I didn't expect it to go to the top, and many friends didn't see it.

　　I was planning to publish two more chapters last night, but I suddenly received a notification for the fourth round of new book recommendations, so I decided to give it a try.The launch time may be pushed back a few days, and it will definitely be available in early May.

　　In the past few days, there are still two regular shifts, depending on the situation.

　　Have a great holiday everyone!
