Under this desert, there is actually a Zerg base!
This news undoubtedly surprised Feng Luo. X23US. COM updates the fastest
What is the Zerg's base
Although it is not mentioned much in the interstellar background, everyone who has played the game knows the significance of this thing to the Zerg.
Simply put, its most important functions are two.
The first is to "incubate" the Zerg units, and the second is to "upgrade" the Zerg units.
These two major functions can be directly compared with the beetle swarm.
The first is the "incubation" function. The incubation function of the beetle unit relies on 24k consumption of psionic energy, and then uses the nutrients in the monster's body to hatch.
But this method is quite restrictive.
Both the incubation process and the cultivation of insect eggs require a large amount of psionic energy, and there is also a limit on the number of eggs that can be accumulated!
But the hatching process for Zerg is different.
From the previous research data of the "Insect Nest Project", Feng Luo found that among the real Zerg group, the queen is responsible for laying eggs, while the incubation is completed by the Zerg base.
The Zerg base has incubation pools and breeding rooms for different types of troops, which can hatch a large number of different types of troops at the same time!
This is obviously much more powerful than the beetle swarm.
Of course, compared to the Beetle Swarm, the Zerg also has shortcomings.
The level of the hatched Zerg units is very low at the beginning and takes time to grow.
However, this shortcoming can be made up for by another "upgrade" function.
In the Zerg base, special culture fluid can be produced, so that the hatched Zerg unit larvae can be rapidly improved. A newly born fierce insect can even mature in just a few days!
This kind of nutrient solution is obviously more useful than the nutrient solution cultivated by NPCs.
In fact, the nutrient solution used in the Zerg Nest Project was itself developed based on the nutrient solution produced in the Zerg base.
In contrast, although the beetle swarm obtains a certain level at the beginning, its subsequent growth will undoubtedly not be as rapid as that of the Zerg with a base.
If it hadn't been for the black female Master Kelly who developed the Zerg culture fluid in the past two days, this batch of jet beetles would never have had such combat power.
In this regard, there is no doubt that the Zerg race has a much greater advantage than the Beetle race.
However, the real advantage is the Zerg base.
In fact, it’s something else, the “assimilation” function!
If we look at it in an interstellar context, the Zerg base should actually have another role.
It is to encode and modify the genes of Zerg units, and integrate the genes of different organisms, thereby cultivating new combat units with the characteristics of that type of organism.
Then, let these new combat arms be selected through battle, and the most suitable part will be used for production and violent troops.
Combat arms such as "worms" or "flying dragons" are obtained by fusing the genes of some creatures, and then through harsh battles, the fittest survive!
The beetle swarm, to a certain extent, is undoubtedly a product of this.
Feng Luo actually feels that this is the true strongest point of the Zerg race!
Feng Luo obtained all these functions of the Zerg base from the "Insect Hive Project" information in the A-2 underground laboratory.
However, according to the data records.
The Sam Group's army finally locked onto the Zerg base after suffering heavy damage, and then after capturing the brain worms, the entire Zerg base was destroyed with nuclear bombs.
But now, there is another Zerg base here
"interesting!"
Feng Luo had already roughly guessed the reason.
The clever rabbit has three holes, and the wisdom of the brain worm is indeed no less than that of humans!
"Well, wait... 24k, how did you know it was a Zerg base?"
Feng Luo suddenly thought of something and asked 24k curiously in the spiritual link.
"Squeak, squeak..."
The little guy gestured with his six little paws while flying.
"You mean, you don't know what's going on... Just after you saw the scene under the carapace, some information suddenly popped up in your head... You understood that this is a Zerg base!"
Feng Luo's eyes widened when he heard this.
"Could it be that 24k has inherited part of the memory of the brain worm, or that it has obtained some memory fragments of the brain worm because it defeated the brain worm in the mental space before?"
He guessed in his mind.
There is obviously no definite answer to this guess.
After all, spirit, consciousness... Such settings are beyond the scope of general science.
However, Feng Luo had a vague feeling that 24k was attacked by brain worms and then the battle occurred in his consciousness.
Perhaps, it is not a random coincidence in the game, but it may actually be system designed.
Because, various signs and a series of tasks have pushed 24k to the status of the "king of the Zerg"!
Perhaps this is part of the system's launch of an important Zerg mission
"Squeak, squeak..."
Feng Luo was slightly stunned.
24k but there was no response from him. The little guy seemed a little anxious, so after calling a few times.
["Your pet shares a consciousness picture with you from the spiritual link. Do you want to accept it?"]
Then, the system suddenly popped up a prompt in the spiritual link.
"Conscious images, even this can be transmitted?"
Feng Luo came back to his senses and was stunned again when he saw this prompt.
Could this be said to be the function of the "spiritual link" added after the last evolution
Feng Luo naturally accepted it, and then felt his entire vision change.
Next, it seemed to be put into a certain perspective.
What you see in front of you is an unknown universe in the background.
Each one looks like a slightly flat ball, as if it has some additional structures and tentacles growing on it, and is slowly floating in the universe.
And among these balls, there are some black spots coming in and out!
No, it’s not a black spot!
When Feng Luo took a closer look at these black spots, he found that they were actually a Zerg combat unit, including fierce insects, hydralisks, flying dragons...
These units, which were far larger than the beetle type, were just like small black dots in front of this ball, even large units such as Thunder Beasts and Nest Lords.
Compared with this ball, it is only equivalent to a larger black spot.
Each of these balls is as big as an asteroid, and their diameter is definitely more than two hundred kilometers!
"These are... Zerg bases?"
With this comparison, Feng Luo was undoubtedly surprised when he noticed this situation.
The Zerg base was actually so big, which was beyond his expectation and visually shocking.
"However, the Zerg base looks more like some kind of creature, with structures like tentacles and sharp horns growing on it?"
At this time, Feng Luo discovered another interesting place.
"Squeak, squeak..."
24k nodded his head fiercely, indicating that Feng Luo's statement was correct.
Then, in the spiritual link, another message was sent to Feng Luo.
The reason why the Zerg have the ability to navigate the universe is because they captured and assimilated a huge galactic beast that could survive and travel in the universe.
After encoding the genes of this galactic beast into the Zerg units, a base capable of navigating in the universe was formed, allowing the Zerg to originate from their home planet and spread out to the universe step by step.
This kind of base, in addition to providing a survival environment for the Zerg in the universe and transporting Zerg troops.
At the same time, it is also the largest combat unit of the Zerg clan. It has very strong defense and combat effectiveness, and can even compete head-on with the space battleships of the Galaxy Empire!
"Galaxy beast? Zerg base? Space battleship..."
This continuous string of information also carries images.
Undoubtedly, Feng Luo was even more surprised.
He now knew why he had never guessed that there was a Zerg base down here before.
In the background of the interstellar game, there is a saying that the Zerg captures the giant beasts of the galaxy, but there is no saying that the base is a living thing.
Moreover, the direction of his thinking was not directed towards that at all. It was just concentrated on the conventional arms in the game, so he couldn't think of it.
In addition, Feng Luo finally understood.
Why can't even destructive psionic energy cause damage to this kind of carapace
Because of the strong defensive capabilities of this Zerg base, it can even withstand the firing of the secondary guns of the Galaxy Empire's advanced space battleships.
With this level of defense, even if the base in front of you has "sleeped", it is obviously not something that players can easily destroy with weapons that are still in the planetary stage.
Yes, just hibernate!
Follow the information given in 24k’s head.
This base was indeed secretly hidden by the captured brain worm.
This is a sub-base separated from the main base, and it is hidden deep underground and enters a dormant state to avoid various detections.
But, apparently it didn't occur to it.
It will be caught and imprisoned, and isolated from its command over the Zerg.
Moreover, the newly created Zerg Overlord and the remaining Zerg were also trapped and killed in the space battleship!
As a result, there was only this dormant Zerg base left on the entire planet.
This is undoubtedly a tragedy for this aggressive race.
However, in Feng Luo's heart, he felt that this base should obviously be prepared by the system for the 24k mission.
"Can you awaken this base?"
Feng Luo asked 24k.
"Squeak, squeak..."
"You don't know if it's possible, but it should be possible... But you have to see the dormant eggs of this base insect!"
"Hibernating egg?"
"Zhizhi..."
24k transmitted another video to Feng Luo.
This picture was seen from the perspective of the reconnaissance beetle who was underground at this time.
The situation under the entire carapace was not filled with various Zerg "buildings" as Feng Luo imagined. At this time, it was even more like an empty shell supported by some pillars.
"During the dormancy process, in order to prevent too much energy from being consumed, the base bugs hiding underground will enter a state of egg-laying."
"Only after finding the dormant egg can we try to wake it up."
"In addition, even if it is awakened, a large amount of energy and nutrients will still need to be provided to allow the base insects to regenerate and fill the entire base before they can control this base!"
Feng Luo sent a message from 24k.
I saw something called "system limitation".
"Requires a lot of energy and nutrients... "
In addition, I also smelled something called "the smell of credits"!
"Zhizhi..."
Sure enough, the message from 24k made Feng Luo feel that the credits were flying out.
It is impossible to tell how many 24k energy crystals are needed for recovery.
But it said that theoretically, the digestive energy of Zerg base insects is very strong, and if they want to hatch, a large amount of additional energy and nutrients are needed.
Therefore, with the nutrients that the scorpions can provide just now, it is roughly necessary to fill the entire base, which should be able to restore the dormant ones to their full state.
"...Sure enough, this is going to cost money!"
Feng Luo was directly shocked by this number.
How many monster corpses would it take to completely fill a Zerg base with a diameter of more than three kilometers
Of course, the Zerg diet is very wide and does not necessarily require monster corpses. Plants and even minerals can also supplement part of it.
However, this is a desert, not a jungle of death rich in materials.
In this area, Feng Luo only encountered monsters five times along the way.
Although, there is a certain reason for this because it is daytime, and most of the monsters in the withered desert are hidden under the sand and do not come out to move.
However, if you want to fill up this Zerg base, it will definitely take an unknown amount of time!
All, the only way.
Obviously, we can only transport nutrient solutions and the like from other places to supplement the nutrients it needs!
This is obviously a very expensive thing!
Feng Luo had a complete premonition that his credit account would be reduced rapidly.
Even with the level of consumption of the "War Chronicles" system, Feng Luo doubted whether the remaining credits would be enough after giving most of his account to the Evernight City.
However, he must cultivate this Zerg base.
Not to mention the importance of the Zerg base to the Zerg.
To put it simply, it is the carapace on this base insect and the material of the "pillar".
If it were made into a powered armor or shield, then it would be impossible for ordinary legendary equipment to penetrate it. You may even be able to create something more advanced than legendary equipment!
Also, don’t forget.
The Zerg base is on the same level as a space battleship!
That space battleship belongs to NPCs, and players have no chance of getting involved.
But this Zerg base is his own.
A personal biospace battleship
In the cosmic era that is destined to come, what an opportunity this will be!
Therefore, no matter how high the cost, this base must be maintained.
"Squeak, squeak..."
Feng Luo smiled bitterly and felt excited in his heart, but 24k suddenly screamed again.
"Um!"
Feng Luo's expression changed slightly.
Because, at this time, a scout beetle was flying in the sky, and unexpected news came.
A player's convoy appeared near the dune location of the "pillar" with the psionic crystal below it!
