Chapter 071: Acting Boldly
What the queen thinks is what the Zerg thinks. Abhos, the "submission" did not wait for her order, but he thought with a part of the consciousness. That is, the Zerg, their deep-rooted nature is to serve the masters and dedicate everything, including inconspicuous life.
Abuhos strives to recall a useful message.
Obviously, it is a fantasy to establish an expedition base for Zergs in this galaxy that is almost unlucky to defend, but a nearby star system can meet this condition. The distance between the two points is not too far, about five light years, there are no planets suitable for the Soks to live in the local area, and there are only a few space stations that orbit the stars.
The Zerg will never be picky about the environment. As long as it is not extremely cold or the high temperature is unbearable, the carrier can survive tenaciously.
The Queen understood what Abuhos was thinking and planning.
Therefore, the Zerg opened the wormhole to the other shore.
After several consecutive corrections, Leviathan finally came to this uninhabited star system. According to Abuhos' memory of this place, the Queen controlled Leviathan to fly towards a gas giant in the fourth orbit of the galaxy. Planets with such a huge mass generally have many satellites accompanying them.
Her goal is one of the satellites that are most suitable for Zerg development.
Leviathan's huge body flew over the satellite. According to the information memory of Abhos, the planet is not big, with a radius of less than 1,000 kilometers, and the atmosphere is thin. The temperature in the daytime can reach 150 degrees Celsius, but it turns into another extreme cold at night. It is more than 70 degrees Celsius below zero, making it difficult for the Soks to survive, but it also has the moisture necessary for carbon-based life. When the sun shines strong, groups of ice will melt and continue to condense when the temperature drops at night.
In Abuhos' memory, after the Sok tribe got rid of the planet and officially entered space, they discovered a large number of immigrant planets, so this small planet with poor conditions and scarce resources was completely out of consideration. Over the long hundreds of years, the Sok people only landed in a few times.
And the most recent exploration was a hundred years ago.
For the Sok tribe, this is a planet with no use, but for the Zerg, it is an excellent place to garrison troops. Behemoth's body can protect the Zerg to the maximum extent. It can block the direct sunlight during the day, while also retaining heat and increasing the temperature of cold nights.
In addition, the oxygen produced by Bethimus and the matching bacterial blanket - all the conditions for survival of life are met, and then we only need to move to a part of the carrier.
The queen obviously didn't have the patience to do these things a little bit. She wanted to find her other half of the sok tribe who was the only one in human society after solving the Sok tribe. She shouldered heavy responsibilities and had a lot of things, but the Sok tribe unfortunately hit the muzzle of the fighting Zerg.
This is probably the most nonsensical war in the Milky Way.
Just because I don't like you, I want to destroy you - rather than the most extreme manifestation of political struggles evolved into complete violence. The Zerg queen has no human thinking. What she flows in her blood and bones is the wariness that gives the Zerg - it can be said that the leader is the root of Zerg's fighting.
She understands everything with the Zerg mind: the best and most effective solution to deal with threatening and disputed aliens is to launch desperate attacks again and again!
She was not in the mood to slowly grind. On the way back to the parent galaxy, she asked brainworms to count the number of female insects at the outposts. Currently, there are more than 60,000 low-level female insects living on the planet. Because the production of low-level female insects is easy, they can produce low-level female insects.
This group of female insects has undergone a second selective evolution on the planet Maldo. The female insect is the only source of the current carrier of the Zerg. Therefore, the master liberated the advanced female insects as much as possible, so that some unnecessary or low-efficiency things will be implemented by the next level of female insects.
Moreover, according to the principle that high-level mother insects can produce units of the same level, the mastermind allows low-level mother insects to have this ability of "self-replication", which greatly reduces the time for high-level mother insects to produce low-level mother insects, and makes low-level mother insects play a higher role in the battlefield and contributes more to the Zerg.
Obviously, the hundreds of millions of carriers of outposts are the best evidence.
The queen's huge consciousness swept across the earth, and the mother insects sensed her call and aroused a certain degree of consciousness resonance. Then, she would draw 50,000 mother insects for expeditionary wars.
The outposts have reached a certain level of resources and Zerg numbers. The daily consumption of Zergs is not low. During the war, she does not intend to raise a group of Zergs who "just eat but not work" - although as long as she gives her order, hundreds of millions of Zergs will rush to the front without hesitation.
But the current transportation capacity of Leviathan must be taken into account.
Therefore, 50,000 female insects were taken away, leaving a small number of female insects to stick to the outpost. According to the average alien motherworms lay 20 eggs a day, all resources and environments are the default appropriate standards. 50,000 female insects can lay 1 million eggs a day, and the number can exceed 30 million in a month.
It only takes one month. In the mode of the female insect making warriors, the current Sok tribe or humans are irresistible. Moreover, the planet she named the "Zerg Expedition Base" is about five light years away from the Sok tribe's parent planet. A Leviathan, which stores five days of green matter, can travel for forty or fifty times back and forth.
The unit Leviathan can transport 50,000 Zergs at a time, and it takes ten minutes to deliver one at an average of ten minutes. It can transport at least two million Zergs to the battlefield a day. Four Leviathans can transport tens of millions of Zergs to fight in one day. No matter how determined or ruthless the Soks treat the enemy, they dare not throw a few bombs to blow up the home star, which is symbolized by their racial spirit, just like the planet Kev.
When fighting with the Zerg, if there is any hesitation at all, it is almost equivalent to pushing one's own compatriots step by step into the abyss of death.
...
Time is spent in the continuous assembly of Zergs.
Five days as defined by the Zerg have passed, and four Leviathans are ready to set off with full load. They carry 50,000 female worms, as well as a large number of engineers and giant beasts that have entered their childhood through the opened wormholes.
In the blink of an eye, Leviathan flew over the "Zerg Expedition Base". According to previous habits, the Queen asked Leviathan to launch Behemoth to a designated area on the planet's surface. A total of three nearby places were selected to form a triangular area that radiates to each other in a large range. With Behemoth's growth rate, it can spread dozens of kilometers in a few days.
As Behemoth expanded, a small number of engineers began to work constantly under its cover. They first exerted their own characteristics, overturned the surface of the hard-to-use land like bulldozers, and then dug deeper, and continuously secreted the mucus of the bacterial blanket on the already soft soil.
In just one to two hours, the bacterial blanket will grow tenaciously little by little. Their developed roots will continue to penetrate the ground, absorbing water and any nutrients that can be used. While replenishing themselves, the bacterial blanket will store all the energy that can be used, create "energy nodes" to provide carriers that need to be supplemented. Moreover, the bacterial blanket will continue to spread with the expansion of Bethimos.
After staying in the air for a day, Behemoth had already covered three considerable areas of the planet, and Leviathan then unloaded all the "cargo" to the ground. Since then, the Zerg has officially taken root in the first "Zerg Expedition Base".
After the female insects landed on the ground, they were transported carefully by engineers. The first thing they had to do was to connect the tentacles that specifically absorbed nutrients with the soft bacterial blanket on the ground to ensure the necessary substances for their activities to the greatest extent. After these work last night, engineers would follow the footsteps of their own Behemoths and constantly spread the bacterial blankets.
A small number of aliens remained by the female insects, and the giant beasts were not idle either. This group of powerful guys played a guest role as an "excavator". Their huge bodies, sharp claws and surging power can push away some uneven or the hillsides that blocked Behemoth's road. If they encounter something too strong, four or five giant beasts will work together. They smooth the road ahead as much as possible, so that the bacterial blanket will spread faster.
The suitable territorial settlement that the mother insects have been opened up in the extreme world is that they continue to reproduce. Almost every moment, insect eggs are laid, and they also break out of their shells and make tenacious Zerg carrier children... With the supplement of the nutrition of the bacterial blanket, they will grow at the fastest speed.
Brainworms who monitor and regulate all this work faithfully, assisting the queen in distributing and planning the cumbersome and less important things. The temperature in some areas is not suitable for the optimal production of the mother insects. When the engineers need to carry it, Brainworm Gate relies on other carriers to sense the surrounding areas, arrange the mother insects in a more suitable location, and report all important actions to their queen.
The Zergs tirelessly prepared for war with aliens, which seemed to have become the only meaning of their existence... The Zerg's queen returned to their home planet. For this upcoming "showing off" war, she expected that Leviathan might suffer casualties - if the Soks really got crazy.
Therefore, she wanted to change the way of transportation... but she had no clue. She could only work hard on the sacred Leviathan. The first Leviathan was born has now grown to a length of more than two thousand meters. It is extremely huge and it is safe to carry 80,000 carriers at a time. But just waiting is obviously not enough.
The Zerg needs more Leviathans.
But the trouble is that the birth of Leviathan requires some incomprehensible... timing. For example, after the first female worm gave birth to Leviathan, she showed a pathological weakness. It took a whole month to adjust and was currently raising the second Leviathan.
Logically speaking, more female insects can be produced to solve this problem.
However, it is even more difficult for female insects to produce the same level of female insects. From the beginning to now, there are only four advanced female insects in the Zerg. Recently, two female insects may have reacted. Perhaps female insects can be replenished to about six in one month, but the scarcity of advanced female insects is only below the masters.
It's useless for her to be anxious. But fortunately, the Zerg's development at the expedition base went smoothly. If the time was right, she planned to launch an attack in twenty days. By then, the Zerg would be able to regenerate while fighting, and the speed of replenishing troops was unimaginable to the alien race.
Moreover, even if they wanted to break their heads, the Sok people would never have thought that the Zerg would build the base at their doorstep.
