Zerg in the crystal wall world

Chapter 47 Spore Crawler

"Our existing psionic energy measurement system is not enough."

"Do you need me to follow the standard curve of human psionic energy?" Agatha asked.

"No." The master shook his head, "Mathematical strength is meaningless. What is more important is the correspondence in reality."

There is obviously a certain correspondence between the levels of psionic energy and the extraordinary power of this world.

For example, the first to third levels of psionic energy have no extraordinary properties except for hearing and seeing. The minimum standard for monsters in this world is the fourth level of soul strength; the power of nature must also reach the fourth level before it can have obvious external manifestations.

For example, the seventh level of psionic energy and the eighth level of psionic energy represent the dividing point between spiritual power and "thought power" that interferes with reality. The soul of this world also undergoes a qualitative change at the eighth level, allowing individual power to transcend the constraints of blood.

Therefore, the Lord believes that instead of using numbers to measure, it is better to use real users of psionic energy to correspond one to one.

"Agatha, are there any psionic units in the insect swarm that far exceed the tenth level standard, but are far inferior to the Overlord and the Cerebral Insects?" The Overlord simply asked.

Agatha pondered for a while, probably understanding the master's brain circuit, and nodded: "Yes, I am."

"You?" The Lord was stunned, "Aren't you the mother of insects?"

"I am the 'Guardian Queen' of the previous master. I am responsible for taking care of the larvae and eggs in the insect hive. I also assume certain guard duties. Except for the symbiotic units and some worker bees in the insect hive, I am not responsible for commanding the troops."

"Oh, so you still have this ability?"

"After my ovipositor was reconstructed, even while shouldering the task of transforming the Arrow Gull, the work efficiency of the Dragon Lion Hatchery, which you named, increased by 60%, while the number of hatching units increased threefold... Of course, after you put me in charge of intelligence analysis, the efficiency of the hatchery has returned to normal." Agatha's tone was calm, without any hint of complaint.

"Well, it's amazing. No wonder the ten thousand springtails were gathered so quickly..." The master laughed dryly and changed the topic, "In short, the level of nether energy during the period of victory will be level 11. No matter how strong it is, What about some?”

"Brain worms, mother worms, and various high-level command units." Agatha replied.

Ever since the Queen of Blades, high-level commanders have had more than just Cerebrates or Insect Mothers as swarm units. Abathur, Dehaka, and Storkoff all have the ability to command troops.

"Very good, then they are level 12. No matter how strong they are, they will be the previous masters, right?"

"No," Agatha shook her head, "The previous master once said that even all the brainworms and queens combined are no match for Sheeds. But Sheets is far inferior to the previous master."

"Who is Sheets?"

"A brainworm that lives in symbiosis with Leviathan. Before you appeared, the previous master once said that if he died due to an accident, a new master would be born with Sheets as the main body."

The master nodded, that is, the backup master: "Then there are level 13 and level 14."

Agatha suddenly took the initiative and said, "When the previous master broke through the world barrier for the first time, the psionic energy he erupted was far beyond ordinary. The resulting psionic energy waveform could even be detected by dozens of galaxies at the same time. .”

"Then add another level fifteen."

Therefore, after level ten, the new level division will be complete.

They are:

Eleven, hero unit level

Twelve, high-level commander level

Thirteen, reserve master level

Fourteen, dominance level

Fifteen, overclocking dominance level

A moment and a half should be enough.

Passages to the underworld are more common than the Overmind imagines.

Not long after that, Agatha locked the three closest passages to the underground world from the minds of many monsters.

Unfortunately, all three passages are located within owned "hunting grounds."

One is the nest of a group of naked mole rats, the other is focused on by a swarm of carnivorous bees, and the other is roaming with five epic bats with the scientific name "Moon-Winged Beasts" and hundreds of thousands of bat swarms.

In response, the Lord said - I want them all!

Bees, mice, and bats all have a certain degree of sociality, and for these animals that like to gather together, diseases have always been their natural enemies. On hand, the Overlord has just assembled a venomophage array group with buildings comparable to those of elites...

Spider Caves.

Hatchery.

It was rare that the Lord was not sitting on his throne.

Instead, he sat cross-legged in a small space filled with cocoons in front of the hatchery.

The development process of a hatchery built underground will be slightly different from that of a hatchery on the ground. It will extend dense and wide tentacles underground and continuously collect information about the stratum in the form of vibration waves.

It is then integrated through the hatchery’s main brain to construct complete terrain information.

At this time, the master ordered the hatchery to control the fungus carpet and create a three-dimensional "mini-map" using the "inverted model" of the fungus carpet growth cave.

"So, they are here now?" The Master reached out and pointed at a lower part of the "Inversion Maze".

"Yes, according to the memory of the cave creatures, the moon-winged beasts have mastered the 'power of hurricane' and will actively create cyclones in their lairs. This location happens to be one of the entrances to the airflow." Agatha waited next to the master. , replied while cleaning the eggs placed outside the hatchery.

…………

Ground.

A huge Y-shaped cave junction.

The violent hurricane roared, and it kept making whining sounds like the screams of fierce ghosts.

The dragon dog, leading hundreds of springtails, stuck to the ground with its forelimbs one by one, guarding ten Zerg units that were shaped like chimneys but had sharp insect legs, and were struggling to move forward in the hurricane.

This is the anti-air and anti-stealth unit in the swarm, the spore crawler.

Because both launch liquid substances as a means of attack, its front-end technology has a lot of overlap with the Cockroach. Once the Cockroach can be put into production, it will be almost there. In addition, as early as the appearance of the Shadow Spider, the Overlord had included the "High Wave Filament Gland" in the research sequence.

Because it doesn't require building units to provide development essence, it even appears earlier than the first cockroach.

The web-builder spiders that came with the army secreted mycelium and spread the fungus carpet all the way here.

Follow the master's instructions.

The spore crawler's six radially symmetrical insect legs and the giant mouth full of sharp teeth growing on the lower end of the body dig into the ground at the same time, burying itself underground.

Yes, the chimney-shaped spore crawler actually has a mouth underneath, or that is its real mouth. After being buried underground, the fungus carpet will continuously send nutrients into its mouth. After being processed by the digestive tract in its body, it will be pulled from the "chimney mouth" above... oh no, launched.

As a simple "weapon", spore crawlers do not have the ability to modulate genes and produce targeted pathogenic spores like phages.

But its own organ that produces acidic spore masses can continuously replicate the pathogenic spores taken from the phages.

The normal attack method of spore crawlers is to launch concentrated acidic spherical slurry, but as we all know, places that can "discharge" can naturally "exhaust".

After the spore crawler is fixed on the ground, it begins to emit yellow smoke like a real chimney.

The dirty-looking spore dust was swept into the cave by the hurricane, and they will be dispersed in the "Bat Cave" as quickly as possible.

The same thing happens in "Naked Mole Rat Cave" and "Carnivorous Bee Cave".

It's just that these two creatures are not cold to wind, and there are no hurricanes in their nests. On the contrary, because they are accustomed to building their nests at the lowest point, and because the organisms gather to generate heat and generate updrafts, the spores sprayed against them are modified to be larger and heavier.

But overall, the situation in the Bat Cave is the most troublesome.

Naked mole rats and carnivorous wasps are both eusocial animals, and the responsibility for reproduction in the population is concentrated on a small number of "old mothers." Therefore, generally speaking, the epic species in their tribe are huge and have difficulty moving freely in caves - just like the case of cave spiders.

The moon-winged beasts are different. They are ferocious beasts. There is no "queen" or "bat mother". They just like to get together because of the characteristics of bat-like creatures. The five male and female moon-winged beasts often even fight over spouse issues.

Similarly, their size is not as large as that of a spider mother. Even if all the bats are infected, they can still move freely.

To put it bluntly, if the virus breaks out, it will be difficult for the naked mole rats and the carnivorous wasp's epic queen to leave the nest, but the moon-winged beasts may join forces to raid the insect hatchery.

Therefore, while the spore crawlers began to continuously emit yellow smoke, the web builders also began to actively build spider webs with fungi to seal the caves.

The huge meandering fungus bundle rolled over, forming a living fungus blanket tumor in the center of the many spore crawlers. While providing more sufficient nutrients for the spore crawlers, it also strengthens the carpet network of the net spreader.

After the production of cockroaches is in place, they will be added in batches as follow-up troops. They are not simply long-range units. The range of their acid spitting is not far, but they are more than enough for air defense in cave environments.

If the Moonwing Beast launches a surprise attack, this will be the first place where an interception battle will take place...

However, none of the Zerg units noticed that the flying spores were not only swept into the Moon-Winged Beast's territory by the hurricane, but some also sank into deeper caves.

At a location far away from the spore crawler's perception limit, it was sucked into it by two holes hidden between rocks.

Amidst the sound of rocks breaking, a pair of snake eyes emitting dim yellow light slowly emerged...
