Zerg in the crystal wall world

Eral's matter comes to an end first.

The master returned his consciousness to Philohir.

She was moving at high speed towards the abyss of flesh and blood.

Near the parasitic heart, a brand new building specially built for her is entering the final stage of development.

It was a special, pure split pool that had all extra genes removed except for maintaining the function of a "biological editor".

Philohir's body will be permanently immersed in the split pool, and will be completely integrated with the split pool during constant decomposition and reconstruction.

With the power of nature and various natural spells she has mastered, she can assist Split Pool in healing, transformation and other tasks.

With the support of the life force of the parasitic heart, even if the thunder beast jumps in, she will not lack the power of nature.

If it weren't for the fact that the insect swarm has been unable to control the life force efficiently so far, the most suitable position for Philohir is actually the special evolution chamber for the power of nature.

Now we can only take a step back.

Let the modified alienated elves use the life force for the insect swarm.

The biological activity of the insect swarm itself and the existence of the parasitic heart of the building mean that the insect swarm does not lack vitality, but it lacks the means of application.

If the effect of Philohir-Split Pool is good, this kind of Zerg structure or unit with self-erasing elves as the core will be promoted by the Overlord.

For example, the elves that can cast healing spells-venomophages, the elves that can cast the wood-turning curse-spine crawlers, the elves that can use vitality on themselves-spore crawlers...

And just when the Overlord was about to send his consciousness to the evolution chamber to investigate the problem of unlocking the genes related to the Nydus Worm. Suddenly I received a message from Shuaiqiu.

After running through the information in his mind, the Master frowned.

There seems to be something wrong with the moon in this world...

…………

After carrying out the "traffic increase" related modifications to Shuaiqiu, Shuaiqiu was able to conduct more frequent information exchanges with a single unit, but it was slightly regressed in terms of commanding large units. More suitable for commanding elite squads in assaults and special operations.

Therefore, it is no longer responsible for controlling the regular troop command in the flesh abyss and cave maze, but special battles are not very common for the insect swarm.

So, in addition to commanding the dragon dog team, the Lord gave it the job of "detecting the moon phase".

Because the activity level of monsters is closely related to the phase of the moon, the insect swarm has always paid attention to the state of the moon. It’s just that the hatchery used to be responsible.

Now we simply leave it to more professional eyeworms.

Unexpectedly, it was only the third day of work handover that Shuai Qiu made a discovery.

"Deflection of light radiation...color deviation...energy release..." A bunch of sensory information from Euglena was transmitted.

The Lord's brain hurts when he sees it. Although they had only been separated for a few days, the Lord had already begun to miss Agatha.

"Tell me your judgment." The master said directly.

As the grassroots command unit of the insect swarm, the Overlord Insect certainly has excellent judgment and decision-making abilities, but in most cases the information the Overlord Insect has access to is limited, and high-level command units usually do not allow the Overlord Insect to carry out unintentional actions without any problems. Functional fantasy.

However, as the first king insect produced by the swarm and one of the commonly used bodies of the Overlord, the Overlord often even uses Shuaiqiu's developed brain to understand and process some complicated data, or as a springboard to connect some strong-willed individuals. Naturally, a lot of information was not blocked from it.

"Blood Moon." Shuai Qiu immediately gave his guess, "There is a certain probability."

The Overmind found the relevant information in the information library of the Hatchery Mastermind.

The blood moon is an intense part of the story, whether in Eral's memory or in the minds of the many monsters in the maze.

About every few hundred to a thousand years, the moon turns blood-red.

At that time, all monsters with corrupted souls will enter a state of rage.

Some mysterious phenomena that should have appeared in the dark underground will appear openly on the surface, such as multi-legged monsters, flying monsters, lantern monsters... or even going one step further, the dead souls directly control the physical body, allowing the dead to stand up again.

By then, the roles of hunter and prey in the large maze will be reversed, and many monsters will break through the blockade of sunlight and enter the ground to kill - this is why the elves monitor the exits of most mazes.

It's just that...according to Eral's memory, the next blood moon should be more than a hundred years away.

To be precise, it's one hundred and thirty-one years, four months and six days - the cave elves have a more detailed time in their minds, and they don't know how these elves who have been staying underground determine the moon phase in the sky.

"Are you sure?"

"Unable to determine." Shuaiqiu answered simply, "There is too little data."

The Lord was also scratching his head. The swarm had indeed captured three elves, but they were all rangers. He can also cast some life spells, but after all, he prefers the Ranger profession. It's okay to show off by watching the moon, but it's a bit too difficult for them to have real professional knowledge of astrology and guessing the time of the blood moon.

"Let's be more vigilant first." The master still said, "Thicken the carpet bound to all the twisted nodes, increase the garrison troops around the hatchery, and assign the tasks to the king insects below."

The master placed his consciousness here in the abyss of flesh and blood.

According to Eral's memory of the increase in monsters caused by the blood moon, the number of hatcheries on the Flesh Abyss must at least double in order to suppress its uprising...

…………

Regarding the advancement of the blood moon, the master was confirmed a week later.

Some cave elves went to Charus' lair in the cave maze to collect carapace to make arrows and armor in preparation for war.

But the swarm of insects had already learned from the minds of the rangers led by Charus all the secret passages connecting the underground world to the cave maze.

Many insect swarm units have long been lurking here.

Without defense, not even a tenth-level saint could withstand the concentrated fire attack of the insect swarm, let alone a seventh-level unit.

It's also in the minds of these cave elves. The Lord learned about the specific arrival time of the Blood Moon after it was advanced - thirty-nine days, leaving only a fraction of the time in advance.

By the way, I also learned a key piece of information: the cave elf tribe will enter a state of full alert before the lunar phase change cycle when the blood moon comes.

And considering that after the blood moon, the surge of monsters will wander around the underground world for a long time before the ecology can be restored. This state of alert will last for years or even decades.

This means that if the swarm still wants to gain the advantage of surprise attack, it must act in advance.

It's just... Even now, the insect swarm has seven hatcheries in Charus' lair that are about to be completed. There were only nine days, which was still not enough for the insect swarm to breed enough troops to take down the tribe at once.

It seems that we need to lower our strategic goals a little bit...
