Overlord: Rise of the Zerg

In this raid, only Sk was hit by a "fatal" blow. It will take some time to grow back in the rear, and Zero does not plan to send cerebrates to the front line in the near future.

Zero is not sure how much the opponent has penetrated at this time. If there are any areas in the Zerg territory that are valuable for raids besides the brain worms, then there are probably only those areas established by Todd over the years for the reproduction and development of intelligent races. The suitable environment provided for survival.

Most of them occupy large areas in the star system, and some are even transformed by the Zerg. Those unique facilities and completely different Zerg individuals are as bright as lights in the dark night. Once noticed, It’s hard not to get attacked.

The opponent relies on its own jumping ability to perform such tactical tasks easily, and the insect swarm will not have much room for resistance.

Therefore, Zero has recently been preparing for the "relocation" of its scientific research base. What happened to Sk was a reminder to him that for a long period of time in the future, the insect swarm will not have much defense capabilities against such attacks from the opponent, and these large space vehicles carrying hundreds of millions of intelligent races Once the facility is destroyed, it will indeed be a heavy blow to the current scientific research system of the insect swarm.

It's hard to say who is more unfavorable to the current situation. Zero believes that as long as the Zerg swarm can find the main body of the other party's civilization, the Zerg will be able to instantly transform from its current disadvantage to the strategic advantage of a full-scale attack. But before that, they have to endure the opponent's situation. harassment and obstruction.

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

In Zerg 2409, with the failure of the first raid, it may be regarded as a success in a certain sense for the Alliance, but no matter what, this battle can be regarded as the first of a large-scale military force collision between the two sides. , the alliance's invasions began to become more frequent, especially the focused attacks on the Zerg wormhole areas, causing heavy losses to the wormhole galaxies near the frontline star field.

A large number of wormhole entrances were forced to close. Under the opponent's targeted space attack, the worm swarm often needed a lot of time and consumption to reopen the entrance channel, and the opponent seemed to have some means of remotely confirming the opening of the wormhole, and continued to attack It has become the norm. Often the opponent only needs a small number of warships to render the swarm of insects that are multiplying and expanding throughout the galaxy helpless.

Every invasion was accompanied by large-scale losses ranging from planets to space bases. After the battle, all that was left to the Zerg was a piece of chicken feathers, while the opponent's losses were very limited.

Of course, this does not affect the expansion of the Zerg swarm. Even with such blows and harassment, the Zerg explorers have never stopped. The area where the "frontline" is located continues to expand, within those cold and dark cosmic spaces. , the worm swarm as a whole is still expanding crazily from the wormhole galaxy to the surrounding areas.

Zero could clearly see that most of the invading warships seemed to have similar characteristics to the Zerg warships. From the analysis of their wreckage, it could be concluded that just like the Zerg units, the opponent's warships contained quite sophisticated The biotechnology of the world can even be said to have completed the perfect combination of "flesh and blood" and machinery.

This is clearly different from the current mainstream technology of the Zerg. Zerg units are generally based on biological structures, using extremely precise gene regulation to form their own biological systems, combined with material technology from various civilizations and their own development. The opponent has taken a completely different path. It is obvious that the application of biotechnology on battleships is in a auxiliary position. At least the opponent's battleships can never be called "alive".

Of course, this still surprised Zero.

Over the years, many races and civilizations have been wiped out by the Zerg, but in terms of achievements in biotechnology, this time's opponent must be ranked first.

Although in terms of details, the Zerg and the opponent should be in two completely different directions, the biological materials that are no less "grown" than the Zerg and the functional structures with extremely precise details are silently telling Zero, The other party can also be said to have reached the pinnacle in biotechnology!

This made Zero very curious about this race. To be honest, the reason why the Zerg can reach this point so quickly on this road is not only due to their own efforts, but even the proportion of "hard work" is quite limited.

Including the results of plundering over the years, the total sum is not as important as "talent".

Brainworms are born with the ability to easily and unconsciously complete biological structure changes at the underlying genetic level, which is unimaginable for ordinary life!

Even if they themselves did not realize what this ability meant at the beginning, this talent itself can be said to be throughout the development process of the Zerg. Without this talent, if all the scientific and technological achievements are to be rationally applied to the Zerg themselves, the energy and resources required will increase thousands of times, and the Zerg swarm will not be able to achieve this goal in just over two thousand years. Come this far!

And the source of their talents...

The group of ants back then obviously had no such potential. The only source could only be the special "special" thing hidden inside the mountain of an ordinary living planet that allowed the ant colony to transform into ordinary creatures like the Zerg. Stone".

For so many years, Zero has not stopped searching for this kind of similar existence. He hopes that the Zerg can obtain a second such "object" so that the Zerg, which is now different from what it used to be, can figure out what caused it. Such an exaggerated change.

In fact, during the expansion journey of the Zerg units for so many years, the invaded living planets were almost turned upside down by the Zerg swarm, and even a few words in the history of many civilizations, including records containing rich mythological colors, are all No trace of its existence has been found. There are some similarities, but they can all be easily disproven.

Zero has never stopped exploring the fundamental origin of the Zerg. To be honest, in the development of the Zerg, this thing played a much greater role than Zero's existence. Without it, there is a high probability that today's Zero would still be leading the ant colony on the surface of the planet to play a survival game with the lizard people who have entered the technological era.

Of course, facing Korva's advanced biotechnology, Zero did not think that it would be related to the origin of the Zerg. Like many races encountered during the development of the insect swarm, at best, the opponent has just developed a little longer, and it is not an exaggeration to reach this level.

However, this is not the case for the Korva Empire!

As the war on the front continues, their understanding of the Zerg becomes deeper and deeper. In order to study this race, the empire formed a top scientific research team. They even went to the imperial industrial base built in front to resist the invasion of the Zerg to conduct the most intuitive experimental observation of the Zerg body structure!

In comparison, although Vege and the Hero Federation also attach great importance to the research of Zerg, they are not as cautious as them.

Of course, their behavior can also be understood to the outside world. After all, everyone knows what kind of superior technology Korva has used to dominate a large star field in the explored universe.

And as the research on the Zerg becomes more and more profound, the haze in the hearts of the Korva people becomes heavier.

It is true that for this race, today's three major civilizations and even all races in the explored universe have some understanding of the Zerg. They realize the potential of this race and confirm its threat to themselves, but for Korva, In other words, these perceptions appear to be much one-sided.
