Zerg in the crystal wall world

after one day.

Inside the hatchery.

The elf's head, eyes closed and bowed, was suspended in the air by strips of flesh of varying thicknesses. His skull was opened, and the nerve fibers from the hatchery were directly connected to the brain and stretched out like roots.

Yes, there is only one head, which is directly supplied and active by the blood vessels connected to the tentacles. His body was stored in other chambers. In this way, even if the elf's soul returns to level ten, it will no longer have the ability to resist.

The place where the elves are imprisoned is essentially a troop dispatch tunnel in the hatchery. After sealing off the exit to the outside world and the entrance to the internal hatching chamber, it becomes an independent small chamber.

At this time, the elf was actually awake, and the fracture on his head had been healed under the cover of zerg tissue. Because there were no pain-sensing nerves in the brain, except for the faint sound made when the tentacles stirred the brain because bone conduction would be very noisy, the elf was also Not too painful.

Rustling - swaying slightly.

The tentacles around the elf lit up with a faint red light, which meant that the master had put his consciousness on the hatching ground.

Relying on the detailed senses differentiated by the hatchery in this chamber, the master looked up and down at the elf at this time.

At the first moment, the Lord was attracted by the elf's scalp that was completely peeled off and hung not far from his head.

Unlike humans, this hair is the main nutritional organ of elves. The emerald green hair growing on it can carry out extremely efficient photosynthesis. The light energy conversion efficiency is almost comparable to that of fungi carpet, which is of great reference value. It's a pity that the elves cannot synthesize several key pigments independently, and the insect swarm cannot directly reproduce this trait.

"You're here." While the Master was observing with the help of the senses in the chamber, the elf suddenly spoke - although his neck was cut off, the Master thoughtfully connected an air bag controlled by his nerves to his throat, so he Still able to speak.

The Lord did not reply immediately. He was not surprised that the elf could notice his arrival.

Although the soul strength has decreased, the elf's cultivation of the natural way is still there. Even if the nervous system is strictly controlled, he can still detect the weak changes in the surrounding life forms.

However, the elf didn't seem to want to talk to him. He just continued to talk to himself: "You controlled that huge insect to fly in front of me, making me mistakenly think that it was you, but it was not.伱; The bug growing on the back of the dragon and lion is not you; the monster that swallowed me is not you. You are the aggregation of thoughts of all the fungi, all the life forms in this area... You are the 'nature' here !”

Except for the part about fungi, it is basically correct. After all, the elves have not seen the hatchery, and they are not very clear about the location of the carpet in the insect swarm.

"Of course you didn't abandon me, you abandoned me." The elf finally sighed, and the green light in his eyes flashed twice, but in the end, it dimmed.

At this moment, the elf's tone finally contained strong regret: "I shouldn't have wavered."

After saying that, the elf closed his eyes and said no more.

The Lord is thoughtful: I have figured out everything, but my soul has not recovered?

"Does your power come from some kind of belief?" The Lord finally asked.

The elf remained silent.

"I have invaded your brain and can stimulate your pain nerves at will. If you don't cooperate, you will suffer." The master threatened.

The elf still didn't speak.

"Your resistance is meaningless. These tentacles have penetrated deep into your hippocampus. Even if you don't say anything, I will still know everything."

Before his psionic level reaches level ten, the Master does not intend to obtain his memory through conscious connection. Instead, it reads information by detecting every neuron in his brain.

Just because I have never come into contact with elves before, I need to decode the information encoding method of its neurons from scratch. This is a relatively cumbersome process. Even if you rely on the master brain of the hatchery, it will not be completed within three or two weeks.

"I really can't do such a thing of coercion and inducement." The master sighed.

The red psionic energy began to gather in the chamber, and along the neural network, it was connected to the elf's frontal lobe and cerebral cortex, suppressing his autonomous consciousness, reducing his hostile reaction, and leaving him in a half-dream and half-awake state.

When the elf opened his eyes again, those eyes that were still slightly overflowing with red psionic energy had lost their luster.

"Elf, what's your name?"

"Eral."

"Do you think your tribe will attack here?"

"will not."

The Lord was completely relieved. The "Air Pollution Plan" of the venomophage could be put aside for now. He still had some time to develop: "Why are you getting weaker?"

"Because the motto I should have believed in was shaken, and my faith could no longer maintain the strength of my soul, so I fell from the sanctuary."

"What is the Holy Land?"

"When an individual can break through the barriers of reality by relying on his will and manipulate his body according to his heart to achieve a state of rebirth, he has reached the holy realm."

"Sure enough, it has something to do with faith."

From this point of view, the essence of the elf is a kind of magical beast with the highest soul strength reaching level seven. But elves can "overclock" themselves through strong belief and reach higher levels.

But on the contrary, once the belief collapses, this part of the overclocking power will immediately collapse.

Obviously, Eral's beliefs are closely related to "nature". Because of his "fake natural" rejection, he was shaken.

"Do you know what the motto of your people is?"

"The mottos of practitioners of the Way of Nature are all related to nature, but most of them are sacrificers and will not rashly connect with the ecology outside the location of the mother tree." Ellar said coldly.

Unless the insect swarm instantly infects the forest where the elven tribe is located, it will be impossible to deal with the priests in the same way as the rangers.

The master didn't feel any pity at all, it was an unexpected gain.

"Tell me about the elf..."

…………

Half a day later.

On the throne. The master's expression gradually became complicated.

Now there's good news, and there's bad news.

The good news is that this world is considered a "colonial world" of elves. Apart from elves, there are no other humanoid races here.

There is no competition, so there is relative slack.

Moreover, elves are an almost non-social ethnic group. According to human standards, all members are socially fearful, and there is very little communication between individuals. People like Eral who often deal with Warcraft and epic species due to professional relationships have already He is considered to be "good at communicating" among them.

Therefore, there is almost no social division of labor in their society. Elves can survive by photosynthesis and do not need close cooperation to survive. The clothes Eral wears, the bows and arrows he uses, and the obsidian knives he uses are all made by himself. There is a full set of tutorials in Inherited Memories.

This also means that they have no concept of an army, and each elf only knows how to fight alone. If the Zerg really fought against Eral's tribe, the biggest resistance would be the seven or eight high-level units of the same level as him.

The bad news is that I didn't ask clearly at the beginning. The so-called "Elal's tribe" refers not to all the elves in this world, but to the small and medium-sized elven tribe where Elal was born - about three thousand people.

There are more than 3,000 people and seven level 10 psionic units. Although they were saved over thousands of years by relying on the almost unlimited lifespan of the elves, the ratio is still extremely terrifying - even the protoss cannot be this powerful. output ratio.

The total number of elves in the entire world... probably ranges from hundreds of thousands to less than a million. It can be said that the land is vast and the people are sparsely populated.

You must know that there is no ocean in this world, and the area is much larger than the earth. Calculating generally, a place as big as Russia may not be able to host ten elven tribes.

This is also the reason why the Lord spread out so many birds but failed to find a single elf tribe.

As for what kind of race the elves are, the Lord also has a little understanding.

Broadly speaking, this is a school of thought masquerading as race.

The two characteristics of "tree growth" and "inherited memory" almost lock the three views of all elves.

For elves, the distinction between elves of different ethnic groups relies on "academic" differences in their natural way and understanding of nature, rather than simple appearance characteristics.

According to this classification, Eral is a "wood elf", or a "natural elf". They believe that the true meaning of nature is to sit and watch the vegetation, quietly and inaction.

Specifically, they will regard themselves, humans, Warcraft, epic species and other living creatures as part of natural development, as well as hurricanes, floods, soil erosion, and vegetation degradation. As long as it does not affect the safety of yourself and the Tree of Life, let it develop.

This is also the reason why Eral was not hostile to the swarm at first.

Of course, wood elves are not fools. As mentioned before, they also regard themselves as a part of nature. According to the two basic principles of "territorial awareness" and "the weak and the strong", if the insects show signs of threatening the safety of the mother tree, they will definitely be eliminated.

And because of the natural pyramid system produced by the reproduction of elves.

The High Priest of the Tree of Life, who was the first to set foot in this world and gave birth to the "Mother Tree Tribe" of all subsequent elven tribes, was naturally the leader of all the elves in this world.

Even if the elves are not very social, they may still be united due to their instinct to protect the mother tree.

At this time, Eral also vowed to the Lord: "Once your threat is known to the High Priest of the Tree Mother, she will unite all the elves in a short time and call on all the tribes to attack you - just like the Demon King back then. It’s the same as in times of disaster.”

The Lord rubbed his forehead. If it was really that bad, would he be able to escape from being chased by thousands of level 10 elf units?

At this moment, Eral continued: "It may only take ten years for all the elven sanctuaries to unite..."

"Wait, how long?"

"As long as ten years." Eral said firmly.

ten years! Ten years is enough for the insect swarm to breed and produce units that cover the entire world!
