Zerg in the crystal wall world

Spider Cave.

The cave model in front of the Lord gradually calmed down, and a flat map appeared in front of him.

This is a map of the surface world.

Although the ground is no longer the focus of the insect swarm's development, the Overlord still begins to carry out the "Forest Alopecia Areata" plan according to the original plan.

Hundreds of king insects began to rise into the sky. They would fly from above the clouds to all parts of the world, spreading their fungus blankets and bringing patches of "bald spots" to the dense forests.

The research on "broad-acting receptor proteins" makes it possible to quickly transform zerg tissue into bacteria carpet.

Overlord insects have the ability to quickly generate a carpet of bacteria by dissolving their own internal organs. This is a method of rapidly expanding the bacteria carpet that is completely different from the phage sporoplasm, but has the same effect.

At the same time, the Overlord also modified the nervous system of the king insects, allowing them to gain higher control over the carpet. For example, when the nerves are directly connected, the carpet can differentiate and detect nodules.

Relying on the close connection between the King Insect and the Overlord, these carpets, which are outside the neural network of the swarm hatchery, will not mutate and begin to devour the world at a speed that exceeds the Overlord's plan.

These free creep areas have only two tasks.

One is to actively create organic matter and store it, and then deliver the resources to the insect swarm when the insect tunnel network is established in the future.

The second is to explore underground and look for traces of the large maze.

A small group of worker bees sleeps in the abdominal sac of the king insect. Once the entrance to the large maze is found, a hatchery will be built in the maze.

The Lord has calculated that, excluding the insect swarms in the maze, as long as there are more than a thousand carpet patches the size of "a city" in the forest, his psionic energy level can reach level nine. …

Just when the master was calculating how much of the hatchery's production capacity he wanted to give to the king insect.

A sudden warning came from the Hive Mind.

Agatha's voice sounded in her ears almost simultaneously: "Level ten psionic energy fluctuations detected! Your insect swarm is threatened!"

The master turned his head, and the three-dimensional cave map reappeared on the fungus carpet. The place where the battle broke out was the cave where the moon-winged beast was.

Level ten psionic energy fluctuation? This does not fit with the information previously obtained!

Even with the help of the spore crawlers, the hundreds of Zerg units cannot be an opponent of the high-level epic species. Spiders and springtails don't matter, the dragon dog has to be withdrawn in time - the unit master with soul cannot be resurrected.

Agatha further issued a warning: "Your troops are under attack."

……

Hurricane Cave.

It is not the moon-winged beasts or other bats that are in conflict with the insect swarm.

Instead, it was a giant snake with a red fleshy protrusion like a rooster's comb on its head. Its head alone could occupy half of the cave, and its two giant eyes that emitted a dim yellow light were like searchlights, sweeping over all the insect swarm units.

The Lord couldn't help but think of the umbrella lizard that was defeated by the dragon dog. The membrane on its collar had almost the same pattern as the giant snake's eyes...

The master just thought about it for a moment and figured it out.

Theoretically speaking, due to the relatively narrow cave level in the upper level of the maze, there are few high-level epic species.

But there are not exceptions. Slender and advanced epic species such as snakes, centipedes, and millipedes can appear in the shallower layers of the maze. But even so, their number is very rare, and high-level epic species usually have the habit of dormancy for many years, making it difficult to find traces.

The high-wave filamentous glands from the spore reptiles can also clearly sense that the biological reaction in this snake is slowly increasing. Apparently, it has just woken up from a long sleep state.

Unlike all the enemies faced by the swarm, this giant snake suppressed all the swarm units the moment it appeared.

Those two pairs of eyes were emitting unknown energy fluctuations. Wherever they looked, the surfaces of all insect swarm units were wrapped in a layer of gray-white rock.

Even the biological tissues of the insect swarm units began to calcify rapidly.

Combined with the information about related abilities in Eral's memory - this giant snake has the blood of the petrified cockatrice.

The petrification process was carried out gradually from the outside in, and springtails were not killed immediately by virtue of their arthropod-like exoskeleton.

But after just two steps of charge, the scope of petrification expanded to the joints, and the springtail completely lost its ability to move.

The net-weaver's condition was even worse. In order to store more spores, the exoskeleton of its abdomen was replaced with an extremely elastic bast structure. After calcification, it could not withstand the high pressure in the abdomen. It ruptured and was lost on the spot. combat effectiveness.

On the contrary, the fungus blanket tumors, relying on the characteristics of corrosive liquid and rapid proliferation, continue to corrode the petrified parts of themselves, and still maintain the biologicalization of the main part, but the mycelium spider web weaved by the web builder has been completely calcified.

Only the dragon dog had no change except for being covered with a layer of dust that looked like fallen ash - the anti-magic effect of dragon skin.

The safe dragon dog obviously attracted the attention of the giant snake.

Dragon Dog clearly noticed that as the giant snake's pupils shrank, the light shining on him more than doubled, and its skin also felt faintly tight.

Without saying a word, the dragon dog simply entered the phase shift state and ran away into the distance.

This instead aroused the ferocity of the giant snake. Its figure swayed, and a huge head shot out like lightning, biting straight in the direction of the dragon dog.

Epic serious attacks have certain attributes that transcend reality. The dragon dog's phase movement also does not exempt it from attacks.

Fortunately, several strong acid spore clusters hit the giant snake, intercepting its next move.

It's a spore reptile. Although it is gradually petrified, its carapace is thick enough and its size is large enough, so it is far from petrified to the point where it cannot attack.

Seeing the arrival of a powerful enemy, he immediately changed his mode, from a chimney emitting spore dust to a turret.

Spore crawlers are the anti-aircraft structures of the insect swarm. The unit was originally created to bombard steel aircraft wearing heavy armor and even plasma shields at high altitudes.

The spore clusters that were sprayed out at high speed and could fly dozens of kilometers into the sky hit the giant snake. Even if it was a high-level epic species, it was still knocked away. The huge body hit the rock wall on one side and was shaken. The entire cave is crumbling.

"Hiss--" Thick spore clusters slowly left behind from the giant snake's head and chest, and traces of green smoke emerged from wherever they passed.

It's a pity that the acidic spores of the spore crawler are still not as strong as the acid in Agatha's thorns.

Melting through the scales caused the giant snake to feel full pain, but in the end it was unable to melt enough blood pits into the body of the high-level monster.

Crazy with pain, the giant snake leaned down, and its huge body directly crushed a spore reptile.

But immediately, the strong acid spores and pathogenic spores stored inside the spore crawler spilled out, eroding more and larger blood holes in the giant snake's body.

"Hiss--" The giant snake hissed louder, but it did not dare to approach the spore reptile again.

Its snake head was raised again, and the giant snake's eyes emitted a brighter light, shining on the remaining spore reptiles.

The active energy in the air immediately doubled, turning them into stone statues within a few breaths.

The giant snake took a deep look at the side of the cave, the area covered by the carpet, which was also the direction in which the dragon dog escaped. Revealing the anger that was almost solidified.

But the giant snake did not dare to crawl in that direction after all.

Instead, he braved the hurricane and entered the territory of the moon-winged beast...
