Overlord: Rise of the Zerg

With the help of the Zerg version of the gravity generating device, in the Krichtel galaxy, a bug "climbed" the entrance to the opened sub-dimensional channel. Through a large amount of energy and material supply, it slowly "propped" an increasingly large space. The larger the spherical area.

142 Oridays later, it changed from a small cubic space to a huge "cave" with a diameter of seventy-six kilometers visibly to the naked eye!

Of course, this is not without cost. Maintaining the continuous operation of the gravity generating device consumes one-third of the total reserves of the Krichtel Galaxy since it entered the energy harvest stage!

As for the Zerg unit itself that transforms into a wormhole controller, its consumption is nothing in comparison.

The diameter is seventy-six kilometers, which is enough for the Zerg medium-sized space units to pass smoothly, but this is not the limit of the Zerg. The reason for stopping temporarily is not only due to the consumption of energy crystal reserves, but also because a single wormhole entrance does not make much sense.

In essence, this wormhole expansion operation was just an experiment based on the scientific research results of the Velvet people. Even though Sass had basically confirmed its correctness before this, its essence did not change.

Critchtel's successful verification here represents its true feasibility. Therefore, including the SH-009 galaxy, in all the star systems that have energy veins that have been discovered by the brainworm Luer and are actually controlled by the Zerg, a construction schedule for the interstellar era has begun.

As the Zerg unit that controls the entrance grows, it continuously extracts energy and resource supplies from within the galaxy. This process does not require the participation of extremely high-quality energy such as energy crystals, so it also reduces the actual consumption of this project. Too much.

At a diameter of seventy-six kilometers, Zero actively stopped expanding. Theoretically, it can continue to expand until it reaches hundreds of kilometers before it is forced to stop growing because its body structure cannot bear the huge gravitational effect.

But firstly, there is no need to allow large Zerg units to pass through at this stage. Secondly, it does not mean that this Zerg unit will no longer consume energy after it grows up. In fact, maintaining the stable existence of the wormhole requires a huge amount of energy every moment, and The larger it is, the more energy it needs to continue to consume.

Fortunately, the Zerg now have a big business and the entire galaxy is under control, so they can still afford it with some conventional energy. Whether it is the extraction of planetary energy or the storage of stellar energy, this is the Zerg's old profession as early as the Ori system.

But being rich is one thing, and meaningless squandering is another. Ensuring that the Zerg medium-sized space units can pass through is enough to meet the requirements in this era, and there is no need for meaningless expansion.

The huge energy originally stored by the swarm can finally be put to use in this era, but Zero still feels that it is not enough. For example, the cost of transporting materials from other galaxies to Krichtel is still too high, and traveling at the speed of light is still too high. Although the emergence of the Internet has greatly reduced the time cost, if a large amount of materials and energy are transported for long-distance navigation in units of light years, the intermediate consumption is still unbearable and unnecessary.

Therefore, with the emergence of wormhole technology and the continuous consumption of a large amount of energy, and the inevitable need for greater energy support in the future, Zero decided to restart the Dyson Sphere project on a large scale.

The energy from stars is almost endless, and those young fireballs themselves are an inexhaustible source of energy. While supporting the swarm to navigate within the star system, it can also provide interstellar voyages.

It's a lot slower, but it's cheaper.

Especially for Critchtel, Zero intends to establish a complete Dyson sphere here, allowing the entire star to provide energy support for various activities of the Zerg, including wormhole supply.

Of course, even with the current capabilities of the Zerg, this will not be accomplished in a short time and will require a process, but this is not a big problem.

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

The Lyman Galaxy, a huge celestial structure that is almost the same as the river system where the main body of the Zerg is located, has also been invaded by the Zerg. From the first few galaxies to hundreds of stars today, this area spans 600 million lights. In the star field of the year, the insect swarm is developing rapidly.

Over the years, the Zerg Swarm has also suffered several attacks from mysterious energy beings, which once caused all the Zerg units developed here to suffer casualties.

Of course, they all dissipated into the universe as a result.

Zero felt that it was necessary to pay close attention to this kind of life. All indications indicate that they are likely to exist in large numbers within the Lyman galaxy!

Although they have never been seen actively moving to galaxies without energy veins so far, it is not Zero's style to hand over the initiative to these mysterious monsters that seem to have no intelligence, not to mention that energy veins are also crucial to the Zerg. Crucially, that is where the wormhole exit will be to connect various regions in the future!

Therefore, it is not enough to master the method of killing them within the energy galaxy. The insect swarm must understand them, and it is best to be able to maintain a threat to this life at all times.

The first thing to do is to give an early warning. Under normal circumstances, the actions of this kind of life in the universe are very difficult to observe. It is like an energy "black hole" that wraps itself tightly without leaving any trace on the outside.

But in these few contacts, the insect swarm still mastered part of the opponent's intelligence. This kind of "black box"-like existence can absorb energy and make many observation methods impossible.

But precisely because of this, it also exposes itself to a certain extent.

Active tracking is currently impossible, but there is still much to be done to predict the opponent's attacks to a certain extent.

Among Ryman, this is the only example of a galaxy with energy veins currently controlled by the worms. Among the total of one hundred and twenty-six star systems, most of them have very limited value.

After the Zerg's eighth brainworm was born, Zero named it Gore, which means energy.

Under the current situation where energy beings are constantly invading, it will shoulder the responsibility of leading the insect swarm in the Lyman galaxy to develop and grow.

The heavy responsibility it took over from the brainworm Visor allowed it to grow rapidly. The Lyman Galaxy is not peaceful to the naked eye, and Zero has even prepared for Ruhr to find this exit first, so that all the insect swarms can truly be connected together.

However, before the trip could be completed, the insect swarm in the Lyman galaxy discovered a second galaxy that might contain energy veins.

Not surprisingly, the place has been occupied by mysterious energy life. If the swarm fleet that was sailing at super-light speed had not been disturbed by strong gravity and escaped from the state, Gore would not have even discovered that there is a massive star here. It is too hidden, especially when it is motionless, in the There are traces that can be traced nearby, but there is no way to judge from distant light years away.

Zero has always felt that this kind of energy life comes from the high-energy fluctuations generated by energy veins. In fact, it seems to be the case. However, regarding their purpose, in this "accidental encounter", he found that he seemed to Some take it for granted.

From the moment he confirmed that the other party was an energy life, Zero believed that they came for the energy crystal. Especially when they were attacked, they revealed almost homologous fluctuations, which made Zero even more convinced of this.

However, when the Zerg fleet encountered it this time, it discovered a blind spot that had been ignored before by chance.
