Overlord: Rise of the Zerg

The exploration of the HC-006 galaxy began immediately after the insect swarm initially established a stable base. This was the practice in previous galaxies.

For the Zerg, exploration and expansion go hand in hand. They will spend nearly a year establishing Zerg bases on all celestial bodies with development value in the galaxy to meet their subsequent development needs.

As for the resources for the next round of galaxy-level colonial expansion, they are also being accumulated rapidly. Its priority is the highest at this point in time. Now most of the resources obtained by the Zerg in the galaxy are for this matter. Serve.

Once that's done, it's time to head out.

Neither Zero nor the Cerebrates realized that the swarm's unscrupulous exploration actions had actively exposed themselves to the sight of an unknown existence.

The insect swarm had not found any traces of the existence of alien races here before, so the insect swarm activities under the leadership of Visser had no intention of hiding themselves.

Although he was not arrogant, he could still be said to act like no one else.

If Zero had full vision here, he would have discovered that the moment the insect swarm was exposed, the development speed of this unknown existence on the planet began to increase in a targeted and rapid manner again.

The scale of various productions is increasing rapidly, as if it was just in a standard state before, but now it is transitioning to a saturated or even overloaded state!

However, although the Zerg did not hide their appearance under the leadership of Visser, so much so that they were caught by the opponent against the background of deep space, this does not mean that the Zerg became lax in their development.

On the contrary, the Zerg's colonization activities in outer galaxies can now be said to have a relatively mature process. In the early stages, they accumulated enough energy and resources as quickly as possible for the next batch of colonial teams to set off, and at the same time completed the entire galaxy. After the colonial expansion team sets off, they will immediately focus on development.

In this process, the efficiency of the swarm is also extremely high. The will of the zerg will empower each zerg unit to do what it should do under the premise of determining the big goal, and there is no waste of resources in the process.

In the initial activities, every bit of energy and resources collected will be used where it is most needed, and there will be no surplus at all.

Therefore, the insect swarm is already in a state of full development in this galaxy, so it will not fall behind because of this.

It's just that you expose yourself to the eyes of other beings under completely unknown circumstances. It's hard to predict what will happen next.

The insect swarm is executing its exploration plan step by step according to the established plan, conducting initial exploration of each valuable celestial body from near to far. Under normal circumstances, if Visser is not blind, it will take at most one year. Within, the opponent will also be discovered by the Zerg.

During this year, the other party was hiding in the dark, while the Zerg were in the light.

To what extent the relationship between the two parties will eventually develop is completely unknown before this.

...........................

If you look back to the Ori galaxy and the Zerg main base, Sass, Dagos, Visser, and two brainworms born in the past few hundred years have initially shown the style of a smart team.

Through the connection of the Hive Will, it can be said that the brainworms are intimately connected.

In terms of scientific research, Dagos's team now has two brain worms. After systematic study, at least in terms of knowledge reserves, the various brain worms are at the same level. Even if there are some differences, they will not be too obvious. .

The only difference lies in energy and potential. As far as Sars is concerned, having survived for nearly nine hundred years is certainly not in vain.

Compared to latecomers, it personally participated in the dissection and reached countless conclusions. In the early days, Sass almost single-handedly pushed the entire Zerg technology forward.

As the saying goes, what you learn on paper is ultimately shallow, but you must know that you must do it in detail.

When it comes to the profound understanding of this knowledge, no brainworm can compare with it.

Although they are closely related to each other, each Cerebrate is an independent individual with completely different ways of thinking and even feelings. It is not a copy of the same individual. The diversity of individuals and thinking has begun to take shape among the Zerg. appear, and jointly promote the development of the entire ethnic group.

This is the fundamental difference between them and ordinary insect swarms. Zero has enough respect for every brainworm and does not treat them like resources. In a sense, the intelligent brain worms may be considered the same race as Zero, who only has consciousness left but does not know where his body is.

They will not be consumables, even if they cannot die easily, Zero will not put them in crisis, let alone take the initiative to sacrifice them in exchange for benefits.

This has nothing to do with being cold-blooded or not, it is the fundamental difference between Zero as an independent life and a simple collective consciousness!

Closer to home, after hundreds of years of development, the total resource reserves here are declining rapidly, and most of them have become resources stored in the main Zerg base like an asteroid belt.

With the exception of Planet Ori, almost every colonial planet is suffering from the unbridled and violent development of the insect swarm. Under the continuous energy supply of the star Dyson sphere (fragment), compared with energy in the general sense, matter has become More important.

The Zerg who have initially applied the nuclear fission reaction to reality may be considered the first time to open the door to converting matter into energy. However, if you want to restore energy to matter and edit it freely as you like, you are almost a god. s method.

Nowadays, pure energy, in terms of accumulation in quantity, is indeed no longer so rare and unattainable. On the contrary, the resources that are less mined and most of which are non-renewable are extremely precious.

Therefore, now that the star energy is enough to satisfy the daily activities of the insect swarm, the insect swarm is still sparing no effort to move closer to the core of each colonial planet. This is almost the main direction of the Sass research team in recent times.

Obtaining the earth's core energy is also one of them, but in this hot world, the large amount of rare resources contained is the main goal of the insect swarm.

Satellite No. 3 of Planet No. 7 is the smallest of all the Zerg planet colonies. Its mass is only about two-fifths of the moon.

Now, it has almost reached its end. The loss of mass has gradually begun to prevent it from maintaining a spherical shape, and the continuous loss of core energy has prevented it from setting off huge waves. It died quietly, even if the core has not been completely extinguished, but the entire planet Has reached the end of life.

Even the insect swarms on it have begun to evacuate and return to the main base in batches. This proves that there are no longer enough benefits here to make the Zerg spend a lot of money, and now there are only a few Zerg units squeezing the last bit of resources that belong to it.

Today, it is no longer essentially different from asteroids in the general sense. Since the mass is not enough to generate enough gravity, the huge defects on the surface of the planet will no longer collapse. Even if the insect swarm uses nuclear explosions to destroy the surface of the planet at this time, Exploded apart, if there is not enough material to replenish it, it will not heal even after thousands of years.

This was the first planet to be mined to near-abandonment by the Zerg, but it would never be the last.
