Zerg in the crystal wall world

Looking at the twisted, squirming dark brown sticky substance in the emerald green. The master did not feel much nausea, but instead felt relaxed and happy.

Take a step and try to step on the creep.

The texture of the bacteria blanket is not as sticky and soft as the master imagined. Instead, the texture is firm and elastic, just like the plastic track in the sports field. Moreover, the bacteria blanket even actively dents to fit the soles of the feet, giving it a comfortable feel. It feels like wearing sneakers.

Facing such a magical carpet, the Master couldn't help but squat down, stretched out his hand to hang above the mushroom carpet, and used psionic energy to semi-connect to the mushroom carpet.

I saw that the fungus carpet under the palm of the master began to undergo wonderful changes. Sometimes it was solid and hard like hard plastic, sometimes it was smooth and moist like ice, and sometimes it flowed freely and produced layers of ripples, and even hyphae appeared neatly erected. The entire fungus blanket becomes fluffy.

Then, as soon as the master's palm was grasped, shock waves were generated on the fungus carpet. All the hyphae twisted and arranged neatly, constricting and expanding like muscle fibers and producing considerable pulling force.

The Overlord can even go one step further and completely differentiate the carpet, turning it into nerve structures, muscle structures, or growing carapace and horn...

What a black technology this is!

Just as the Overlord was interacting closely with the creep, a sharp scream was suddenly heard not far away.

Looked up.

Just two meters away, from a hole in the earth that was originally covered by weeds, a rat-like creature suddenly jumped out.

There are several hyphae attached to its body. The soft and gentle silk threads under the master's hands are like steel needles that penetrate into the mouse's skin, and like tree roots, stretch among the mouse's muscles, exposing its epidermis to visible bulges. .

The mouse, which was going crazy with pain, ran out of the cave invaded by hyphae in a panic, but stepped into the coverage of the fungus blanket. The tight and dry carpet under the feet of the Overlord turned into glue at this time. As it ran, it pulled out long strands and seemed to come alive, sticking to its body layer by layer. Finally, it was wrapped tightly, unable to move.

Then, with a sizzling sound, the mouse's body was quickly digested, revealing its dense white bones.

But when the mouse's chest, abdomen, lower body, and half of its internal organs were digested, the mouse's struggling and screaming stopped abruptly.

The Master looked at the mouse. At this moment, the only remaining part of its face was swollen. The nose and upper lip were reduced to flesh. One eye fell off and was wrapped in tentacles. The other eye was exposed. Faint red light.

The master perceives its detailed physical condition and has the feeling to control all its life activities.

This rat has become a zerg unit...

"The virus has been activated normally." Agatha's voice came from the side.

Zerg hyper-evolved viruses, also called virophage viruses, are widely symbiotic with the fungus carpet and are almost bound to the gene chain of the fungus carpet. It is a terrifying virus that can forcibly insert zerg DNA into the genetic sequence of infected people. If it is assisted by infectious units such as phages, infected people, scorpions, and queens, it can even infect high-level psionic units. …

"How contagious is it?" the master asked.

"It's not too strong," Agatha replied. "The original hyper-evolved virus that has not been modified by the evolution chamber and infection unit is relatively fragile. It is highly symbiotic with the carpet and other zerg units and is difficult to spread under natural conditions."

However, Agatha still took the initiative to propose a plan: "But you can order the bacteria carpet to differentiate into spore reproductive organs to emit virus-carrying spore dust into the atmosphere to accelerate the spread."

The Master thought for a moment and then took the initiative to speak: "How long will it take to accumulate enough spores to pollute the entire planet's atmosphere in one breath?"

According to his experience, the spread of epidemics is not suitable for long-term water flow. The last word is to explode in one breath. In particular, the zerg virus has the characteristics of a short incubation period and quick effects. Excessively extending the front line may lead to unpredictable things happening.

Agatha shook her head: "It's immeasurable."

But what is certain is that the nutrients and organic matter it requires must far exceed the consumption of establishing a hatchery...

In fact, if the Overlord hadn't come to this world in person, he would have gone all out to transform and spread the Zerg virus, truly turning the world into a plot like Plague Inc.

But now that he is in this world, he can't do this. If the spread of the virus triggers a worldwide joint counterattack, a group of infected people alone cannot protect him.

It is better to build a hatchery first and create a group of powerful zerg units for protection. Anyway, to say the least, the zerg virus takes effect very quickly. As long as you accumulate enough pathogenic spores, you can release them when you are exposed. not late.

By this time, the infected rat had disappeared. Obviously, being assimilated into a zerg unit did not stop the creep from eroding it...

Um? The master turned his head and saw that the germ blanket was gradually covering Agatha's body.

"What are you..."

"This is the recycling mechanism of the creep," Agatha said calmly. "For low-level units that have been injured and cannot heal themselves, the creep will decompose them and recycle them. High-level units will provide them with nutrients and wait for the insect swarm. recycling.”

The more differentiated a unit is, the more difficult it is for it to recover from injuries through self-healing. While protecting the Overlord, Agatha's ovipositor and the back of her head that brought psionic energy were severely damaged. These two parts are the key to the insect queen. It is even said that if Agatha was injured and the situation was reversed, and the person was gone, only the hindbrain nerve cord and ovipositor would be left. She would be more likely to recover on her own than she is now. .

"Master, please let my nerves grow together with the creep. I can replace the building units to manage the surrounding creep to a certain extent." Agatha applied.

Except for a few units, there is basically no rejection among insect swarm units. When necessary, the head of a hydralisk can even be mounted on the body of a springtail to ensure the number of combat forces. However, in contrast, the zerg had to build a more complex and powerful immune system to prevent the opponent from destroying the entire swarm through research on one unit.

The Lord nodded: "Then let's do it."

The creep began to multiply step by step. With Agatha here, he didn't need to worry about managing anything.

However, the master still warned: "Infect as many creatures as possible, and at least accumulate a mobile force."

When you don't have a single soldier under your command, even a small thing like a mouse has its value. It would be a pity to let it be corroded like this.

"Yes." Agatha nodded in agreement. Although undifferentiated fungus has no brain and cannot understand complex instructions, its various mechanisms can still be fine-tuned. Whether to phagocytose living things is a matter of activating a receptor protein.

The Overlord found a place on the creep carpet and sat down cross-legged. Linked into the DNA of the insect swarm again.

Begin to learn information about the swarm from the Hive Mind and search for techniques for using psionic energy...
