Overlord: Rise of the Zerg

Although Ruhr's two experiments came to a conclusion that was beneficial to the Zerg, Zero was not very happy about it.

First of all, it's because this unknown way of transportation is not controlled by the Zerg. He doesn't know what it represents in the universe and how it exists.

Secondly, even if the Zerg can use it to pass through various star fields in the future, it will only be limited to places with exits, and the restrictions on its entrance make it impossible for the Zerg brigade to enter, and the time when the passage will be opened cannot be determined.

There are also questions about why the Velvet people entered the passage but did not respond at all.

Therefore, while starting to use it to spread Zerg units to more places, Zero will not stop studying it.

Ordinary Zerg units cannot meet the needs of entering and accurately locating. They must be led by brain worms to try to study and record the many exits.

The size of the entrance to the passage determines that it is impossible to enter too many bugs at once. Therefore, the first thing Ruhr has to do is to find out where the nearby exits lead as much as possible, and that is to verify. If a passage is opened at the same place twice or even many times, will the location inside change?

This requires Ruhr to wait at least twice for the opening of the channel at the same position inside the channel. Based on the difference in time perception between the previous real universe and the inside of the channel, the time can be roughly determined. Of course, if the channel fails to open at the same position for a long time, it will also Can be exited from other locations.

From this point of view, although the Zerg brainworms have already achieved the step of exploring inside the channel, the research on energy veins can be said to have just begun.

Popper put aside his previous life-extending potion improvement project and focused his main attention on dimensions and gravity, which he had not really concentrated on studying for a long time.

Starting from the most primitive monitoring data, to predictions about the opening of mineral veins in recent years, and then to theoretical confirmation that sudden gravitational pull can have an impact on mineral veins, this series of past results are actually progressing step by step. of.

By this time, through initial research and scientific inspections, the project team realized one thing, that is, they could no longer obtain much useful information with the previous observation methods, and they had to upgrade the entire observation system. .

This further expanded the scale of the team's work, so that under Zero's secret promotion, talents in aerospace engineering were also mobilized to join the team and participate as consultants in design and subsequent demonstration.

Therefore, Pope picked up his previous results again, combined them with the cutting-edge technology of the Federation over the years, and united with a group of top federal scientists to design a more complete data collection system for energy veins.

The study of gravity was actually not his specialty, but Popper studied it carefully, at least to understand what the Federation had done in the field of gravity over the years.

Among this team composed of many top federal scientific elites, Popper is not considered the top scientific researcher. At least in terms of relevant achievements, he cannot compare with his predecessors who have devoted their lives to this industry, but as a An academician of the Federal Supreme Academy of Science, he is by no means comparable to ordinary experimenters. He has his own team.

At this stage, his main goal is to establish a complete observation system based on the original foundation and build the basic framework of the entire research to provide assistance for subsequent breakthroughs.

It can be foreseen that although a considerable amount of power has been gathered, this is by no means a day's work.

Today's entire scientific research team is of a scale that is rare in the entire history of the Federation. The last time such a concentrated effort was used to tackle the same project dates back to the period of the Great Discovery of the Universe.

The entire project was broken down into small topics. As time went by, it was like an onion being peeled off, starting from the outer layer and working its way towards the core.

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

In the year 1280 of the Zerg, after a 16-year voyage, within the Lyman galaxy, the Zerg unit previously sent to observe life with unknown energy arrived at the edge of the target star system through conventional navigation.

Although it is dark here, the existence of many large celestial bodies in this darkness can still be confirmed through gravity detection by scientific research units.

The first thing to do was to test. A group of medium-sized Zerg units used as bait began to advance towards the gravitational range of the two stars inside the galaxy.

These insects, which are cone-shaped like a group of thick birds, have nothing special about them. They are driven by nuclear fusion energy. Under the dark night, they are like small stars, heading towards the hidden place. Stars and many large celestial bodies in the dark are getting closer and closer.

These bugs will spend their lives to determine the range within which they will be attacked.

Of course, if Visser makes a mistake in his judgment and "it" does not have a fixed sphere of influence, but just like ordinary intelligent life, it goes straight to the main body of the team hidden in the darkness, although losses are inevitable, it is still a kind of loss. Important information.

No matter what, as long as the test yields results, it will be beneficial to the Zerg. The Zerg swarm can afford to lose some individual Zerg.

Although this place is far away from the star system that can continue to provide them with resources, behind this team, there are still a large number of insect swarms carrying a large amount of resources approaching here. In order to prevent unexpected events, they are the backup for this test. The insect swarm can also be consumed directly as a backup resource when necessary.

In order to find out the true identity of this mysterious creature, Visser did not hesitate to consume an extremely large amount of energy to transport resources across a distance measured in light years.

As the first batch of Zerg medium-sized space units advanced into the galaxy, passing through the main gravitational range area and being captured by the binary star system, the expected attack did not come.

They continue to move forward, passing through the complicated edge of the galaxy, and advancing deeper into the galaxy.

Visser carefully observed the movements around them, including the physical condition of the group of bugs themselves. He was very sure that these bugs would die at some point. If he could discover how they died, he would be able to obtain further information. .

Under the observation of the scientific research unit, the first batch of bugs slowly approached the only large celestial body in the galaxy besides the two stars - a planet affected by the gravity of the two stars.

The accident happened at this time. Before they could decelerate and enter the planetary orbit, Visser lost the vision information of the first insect, and from the observation of other scientific research insect species, it seemed to have suddenly disappeared out of thin air!

Next, as if something was triggered, although the group of testing insects did not gather together, they lost contact at the same time at the next moment.

Unfortunately, Visser still didn't realize why they died.

But this is not important at this time. Another more important conclusion needs to be verified.

That is, whether the other party can discover the insect swarm hidden in the darkness outside the galaxy, and whether it will take the initiative to attack!

Said to be outside the galaxy, in fact, it only takes 16 light hours from the Zerg's hiding place to the outermost edge of the blue giant. Based on the opponent's previous attack speed on the Zerg near the passage, if the five Origen were not attacked within a few days, they would basically be This can be ruled out.
