Overlord: Rise of the Zerg

Outside the cave, heavy snow fell, and the world was vast.

Sommer's plan still worked to some extent. After all, conveying information in such a terrifying way should be no small matter no matter how you look at it.

The soldiers on duty did not dare to make decisions without authorization, and the piece of cloth was quickly delivered to the senior management.

They thought that the camp in the jungle had recently lost contact with Heli City, so this information was very likely to be true.

But as a senior executive, you have to consider more things. Although all current indications indicate that what is written on the cloth that should be used by hunters to wrap wounds is most likely true, they cannot immediately conclude from this.

Although the certainty is not high, no one can be sure that this will not be a conspiracy of the enemy.

Therefore, they must personally verify the authenticity of the news before making a judgment.

But no matter what, one thing is certain, that is, something must have happened in the jungle, otherwise it would be impossible to explain the fact that all four territories have recently lost contact with Hurley.

Coupled with this white cloth of unknown origin, even if the news on it is not true, the territory in the jungle is definitely in danger.

Therefore, the entire Heli City has recently been on alert because of this, and at the same time, an exploration team was sent into the jungle despite the severe cold.

But what they didn't know was that the exploratory team they sent was stopped by Sommer not long after they entered the jungle.

For such a long time, Sommer had been keeping an eye on the movements in Heli City. It was not until he saw that they had stepped up their vigilance that he finally determined that the news he was delivering should be taken seriously.

Therefore, he has been waiting here for the city's reaction. Until now, he stopped this group of lizardmen who wanted to go deep into the jungle to explore information.

Based on Sommer's character, deep down in his heart, he is extremely distrustful of these people of his own race. But at the same time, he also knew that these fellow tribesmen were the only force he could rely on for revenge.

So despite his reluctance, he stopped them and explained everything that happened in the jungle in very simple sentences, including the dangers they would encounter if they continued to go deeper.

To be honest, for Sommer, he has almost never said as many words to any of his compatriots as he did today. For the hatred in his heart, he is willing to do these things, which is quite sincere.

However, his frankness did not win the trust of these people of the same race, but instead gave him more vigilance.

Thinking about it, from their perspective, Sommer is actually quite suspicious!

He used arrows to shoot at the tower to inform them of the information, and then stopped them and told them coldly some information that was unknown to be true or false. His identity is unknown and his purpose is unclear. How can his words be trusted?

If Sommer hadn't been really skilled in the jungle, he would have been captured directly by them.

The first exchange between the two parties ended on bad terms. With Sommer's character, being able to reach this point was already the most benevolent thing. After that, he did not stop the other party from moving forward.

At this moment, he had decided to think of another way.

Although this would actually waste a lot of time, there was nothing he could do now. If trust cannot be gained, no amount of communication will be of any use.

Thinking about it, the lizard people have existed on this continent for who knows how many years. They have a basic understanding of the creatures that exist on the continent.

Under such circumstances, anyone who is suddenly told that there is an almost unsolvable race like the Zerg in this world will not easily believe it.

…………

Zero did not immediately discover these lizard people entering the jungle.

In winter, although survival is not a problem, it has been difficult for the explorers to stay active in the outside world. In addition, the main force of the insect swarm has also shrunk. After completing the search for the lizard people's territory, most of them have retreated. It is in an underground cave, so monitoring the outside world can be said to have reached a freezing point.

It’s not that Zero has completely given up on the outside world in winter. Although it is difficult for explorers to be active in the outside world, they can still hibernate in some hidden places and observe every move nearby, but the number is reduced compared to before. It has changed a lot, and it has changed from a mobile sentry to a fixed sentry. However, there are pros and cons. While the field of view is reduced, the concealment is also greatly improved.

After all, if there are still mosquitoes flying around in such a cold winter, even a fool will know that there is something wrong.

However, even though the Zerg's external defenses had weakened a lot in winter, as the lizardmen continued to penetrate deeper, they were eventually discovered by Zero.

Several explorers hidden under the bark of the trees were the first to discover their traces. Then, without their knowledge, the explorers almost "watched" them going deeper and deeper.

In a cave deep in the jungle, a group of dormant warriors opened their eyes at the same time, staring straight ahead with cold and irrational eyes. In the next moment, they rushed out of the cave one after another and disappeared into the vast forest. middle.

At the same time, on a big tree in the distance, the lizard man boy jumped to the ground, turned around and walked away, without looking at his fellow tribesmen again.

They are dead.

This was the only thought in Sommer's mind. Although he wanted to use them to inform the meat-eaters of the dangers of these bugs, there was no way he would involve himself in it.

The insect swarm brigade has been dispatched. They are deep into the jungle, with no possibility of survival.

This attempt failed and he had to find another way.

"Perhaps a corpse with bugs would be more convincing?" Sommer's heart moved as he was walking away, and he couldn't help but stop walking.

Then he fell into deep thought.

First of all, it is certain that this idea is feasible. Naturally, it is difficult to gain trust if you make empty claims. If you can get bugs similar to corpses or even living bugs, you will naturally be more convincing.

However, he also knew that, not to mention the difficulty of catching a bug alive, based on the insect swarm's suspected ability to share vision, catching a living bug was tantamount to installing a real-time locator on oneself. , there is no point in escaping anywhere.

So getting a body back became the only feasible solution.

Still, it's not an easy thing to accomplish.

First of all, the Zerg rarely move alone. Hundreds or thousands are the norm. Trying to kill a bug in the hands of a swarm of this size and then escape, relying on its ability, is tantamount to wishful thinking.

And according to his observation, the insect swarm will clean up the battlefield after every battle. Whether it is the corpses of one's own team or the enemy, all will become the material for the hatching of the larvae of the huge and ugly bugs.

Then, it is not feasible to design a trap to kill the bugs and then remove them later.

Not to mention ordinary traps such as thorn pits, hunting traps, etc., it is actually very difficult to kill this kind of insect. Even if it can be killed, it will not be his turn to collect the body, because the insect swarm will inevitably divide its body and take it away.

Sommer began to think about the feasibility of his sudden idea. Judging from the results, as long as you can achieve your goal, it is undoubtedly feasible. The only thing left is to get the body.
