The Zerg Overlord Who Devours the Starry Sky

Chapter 2 Zerg Larvae
If you want to become a warrior, you must first take the quasi-martial artist assessment.

Qin Mu, who is familiar with the plot and has accepted all the original memories, knows it very well.

As a member of the Extreme Martial Arts Gym, you can take the quasi-martialist assessment on the first of every month. But if you want to become a real martial artist, you need to not only pass the quasi-martialist assessment.

You also need to take a practical assessment. After passing the actual combat assessment, you can truly become a warrior.

There are only two actual combat assessments a year for prospective warriors, on August 8st and February 1st of each year.

It is already June 6th, which means that if you cannot become a quasi-martialist before July 16st. Then you will definitely miss the assessment on August 7st. If you want to become a warrior, you will have to wait until February next year.

This was unacceptable to Qin Mu.

It had only been three and a half years since the golden-horned behemoth attacked the American base in New York State.

How could Qin Mu accept wasting half a year?

Although he has a clone of the insect larvae, Qin Mu can theoretically not consider the warrior assessment until the insect swarm becomes stronger.

Under normal circumstances, as long as resources are sufficient, a larva can develop into a swarm in a very short period of time.

Because each larvae retains all the genes of the entire swarm, it can hatch out various zerg units as needed.

But in fact, Qin Mu learned from the broken memory of the larvae. During its long slumber, its gene pool lost almost all of the Zerg unit genes.

Today's gene pool only retains a type of worker insect that resembles a giant worker ant, and this worker insect can only hatch into the lowest-level insect mother nest.

This means that the development of the insect swarm must rely on plundering genes, analyzing them, and then evolving.

This not only takes time, but also requires an environment suitable for the growth of the insect colony.

The city of Yangzhou where I am now definitely does not meet the conditions.

Only the wilderness area can provide an environment for the growth of the Zerg race, but there are swarms of monsters in the wilderness area and it is not an area that ordinary people can easily set foot in.

The problem has returned to its original point. If he wants to develop the insect swarm, Qin Mu must first become a warrior, or at least a quasi-martialist, because only quasi-martialists can legally and reasonably enter the wilderness area.

Putting his thoughts back, he couldn't rush into becoming a warrior. What he had to do now was to feed the Zerg larvae that had been hungry for who knows how long.

After rummaging around at home, Qin Mu finally found a few pieces of frozen meat that had been in the refrigerator for who knows how long.

Qin Mu took out the frozen meat and placed it in front of the Zerg larvae.

The larvae, which had been hungry for a long time and were about to go crazy with hunger, found the food. They immediately opened their big mouths full of fangs, easily crushed the frozen meat, and swallowed it in large gulps.

While the larvae were eating, Qin Mu carefully looked around this familiar yet unfamiliar home, looking for other food.

This is a small house with two bedrooms and one living room located on the 18th floor.

One of the two rooms is my own bedroom, and the other is my parents’ bedroom.

The original person has been reluctant to clean up his parents' room, and it still looks like it was when they were there.

Open the door and enter your parents' room.

In the middle of the room is a double bed, and on the left is a wardrobe filled with all kinds of clothes.

There is a family photo on the bedside table, a desk on the right, and a bookshelf on the side.

The bookshelves are filled with books, most of which are about creatures, genes, monsters and the like.

These books were left behind by my mother, who was a military researcher.

Qin Mu walked to the bookshelf, pulled out a book, flipped through it, and put it back when he found that he couldn't understand it.

The furnishings in the living room are very simple, with only a TV, sofa, and coffee table.

After searching around, I couldn't find any food that could be given to the Zerg larvae.

While Qin Mu was looking for food, the insect larvae had already eaten most of several pieces of frozen meat that were larger than its body.

In Qin Mu's perception, after the food entered its body, it disappeared in the blink of an eye due to its terrible digestion ability.

After swallowing a large amount of food, with the larvae's stomach as the center, a warm feeling spreads throughout the larvae's body.

Under Qin Mu's gaze, the larva's shriveled body grew in a circle at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As the larvae revived, Qin Mu felt that there seemed to be a hint of warmth in his body, but it was too weak.

"My strength seems to have improved a bit, and the hidden wounds in my body have become better."

Qin Mu clenched his fist and felt the changes in his body.

"There's nothing to eat."

"Such a small amount of energy converted from food is not enough for the larvae to return to their normal bodies, let alone hatch into workers."

The original person did not have the habit of storing food, so Qin Mu could only find a way on his own. Turn on the phone, enter the password according to the memory, and operate it for a while.

This mobile phone was a little more advanced than in the previous life, but not too advanced. Qin Mu quickly figured out how to play it.

Open the bank app and it shows the balance of 523586.23 yuan.

"Fortunately, there is still a lot of money."

This money is accumulated from my parents' savings, pensions, and monthly government subsidies.

As a descendant of martyrs, the government subsidy is 3000 yuan per month, which is paid until the age of .

In order to become a warrior these years, the original person has spent a lot of money. After the injury, he spent hundreds of thousands on medical treatment.

The remaining money, if laid flat, will be enough for a long time.

But Qin Mu obviously didn't have this idea.

In his previous life, Qin Mu was mediocre enough. In this life, he thought about changing his way of life.

Checked the time.

"It's not yet nine o'clock, let's go out and buy something."

Qin Mu remembered that there was a vegetable market not far downstairs, with many meat shops inside.

Pork, chicken, duck, and even monster meat are all sold, but monster meat is much more expensive than ordinary meat.

Zerg larvae are not carnivores. On the contrary, they will eat almost anything. In extreme cases, they can even survive by eating soil.

However, the most suitable thing for it is the flesh and blood of living creatures.

Qin Mu put the Zerg larvae into the inner pocket of his clothes, packed them up a little, and went out directly.

The community where Qin Mu lives is a resettlement area for military families, and the public security conditions are very good.

I took the elevator down to the eighteenth floor and walked through the narrow alleys.

In this era, except for some areas, the efficiency of most land use is almost close to the limit.

Every residential building looks like a huge square cement pillar, even the military housing complex.

After walking through several alleys, Qin Mu finally came to a narrow street.

It was already night, the street lights had been turned on, many people had just gotten off work, and people were coming and going on the streets.

The smell of snacks wafted from the roadside stalls, attracting customers.

Some people were shouting to sell goods, and some were calling friends. It was so lively that it didn’t feel like the end of the world at all.
If Qin Mu hadn't seen the strange menus written on the menus of some stalls in front of him, he would have thought that he was still in the snack street of the urban village in his previous life.

“One-horned wild boar pork belly skewers”

“Casserole stuffy tiger mastiff dog”

“Longhorn Sheep Kebab”

……

Ignoring these, Qin Mu walked quickly towards his destination, which was the vegetable market on the other side of the street.

Because it was night, there was not much meat on the several meat stalls, and some stalls were already closed.

Under the surprised gaze of the stall owner, Qin Mu bought all the meat from several stalls.

More than sixty kilograms of ordinary pork and fifty kilograms of wild boar meat.

Ordinary pork is fine, costing more than ten yuan a pound.

The meat of ferocious beasts is different. Even the cheapest H-class monster unicorn wild boar meat costs more than a hundred pounds per pound.

Such a small amount of meat cost Qin Mujiang more than 7 yuan, which is almost two months' salary of an ordinary worker.

The reason why Qin Mu also bought monster meat was because he wanted to know whether there was any difference between the larvae devouring ordinary pork and monster meat.

Carrying a hundred pounds of meat, Qin Mu returned to his home.

This is because Qin Mu is now physically strong. In his previous life, he would have fallen down from exhaustion while carrying such a heavy thing.

Putting all the meat in the living room, Qin Mu placed the larvae in the middle of the meat.

As soon as the thought changed, the larva's body devoured the meat crazily, and pieces of meat much larger than its body disappeared into its mouth, as if it were a bottomless pit.

Its body also grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and weak warm currents also circulated in Qin Mu's body.
