Overlord: Rise of the Zerg

At this moment, the Korva Empire is eager to devote all its combat units to the star fields on the front line where complete fortifications have been established. Although it is clear that this is just a stopgap measure, if the insect swarm is not destroyed here, If they delay, they won't have any time to form an internal armed defense line!

Whether it was drinking poison to quench thirst or strategic delay, even without systematic deliberation, the three major civilizations all chose such tactics at the first opportunity.

But the Zerg swarm that initially penetrated into the explored universe would not let them do so easily.

The three major civilizations have vast territories, but more than 98% of the star fields have received limited or even no development at all. Even within the jurisdiction of such a cosmic-level civilization, there are still desolate areas.

While the brainworms were "gnawing" at the unsightly "obstacles" on the frontal battlefield one by one, the first batch of insect swarms that penetrated deep into the rear were already spreading.

They further "divided" during the jump, and the vast majority of individuals eventually headed straight for a certain star. No matter what they encountered, it was the Zerg that ultimately benefited.

The brainworms on the frontal battlefield involve more and more energy of the three major civilizations, even if this is only the early stage of the war, even if due to various reasons, each of them has not used all their means.

Whether it is active deployment or passive deployment, these major battlefields are like surging undercurrents, extracting a large number of combat units including Zerg from near and far.

It's not that the three major civilizations cannot afford the loss of a single star system, but they are indeed not fully prepared for a head-on war with the Zerg at this moment, even if they were already in an internal war before this, so there is a situation that is different from usual. A more complete military reserve will not change this. Because the Zerg, especially the Zerg that has discovered their civilization, requires an unprecedented scale of mobilization, and even so, there is a high probability of defeat!

In the calculations of the Hero Federation, if they deal with the Zerg alone, based on their understanding of the other party for more than a thousand years, in this case, relying on favorable conditions to resist resolutely, there is still a slight chance of victory. After all, the three major civilizations can It is far from being weak. Just take the Hero Federation as an example. In the previous peaceful era, without the interference of war and the impact of the curse incident, they had almost seen the dawn of space battleships!

This means that in the future they may even be able to sail in the universe with limited ships carrying a large amount of manpower and material resources! This is also the last way to resist the Zerg invasion that they once had high hopes for.

For civilizations that have not yet left the surface of the earth or even entered space for the first time, this method, which is similar to attracting hundreds of rivers to Sumeru, is almost a power that only gods can possess. However, in the eyes of the Hero Federation, it has even become brighter. hope!

Of course, with their current technological strength, population size and territory, it is not impossible to get rid of the insect swarms and forcefully complete the migration, but the price paid must be huge. In the Hero Federation, which advocates freedom, Unless everyone feels the threat of death, there will always be huge opposition.

At the same time, doing so means the loss of a large number of vested interest groups, and the possibility of peaceful implementation is slim.

In the face of the invasion of the swarm, Korva, Vege, and the Hero Federation, although they are no longer at war, and each has evacuated the warships on each other's borders on a large scale, each has its own secrets in times of crisis. Means, even if it is really a matter of life and death, there is no lack of means to activate the backup plan or retain the fire.

It has been inherited for tens of thousands of years and has been able to develop to the scale it is today. It is very difficult to completely exterminate such a race.

Maybe the kind of curse that Zero identifies as a soul attack can be used, but according to Zero's analysis, it seems that it can only make a civilization decline from its peak, but it does not mean that it is completely extinct. The only thing that can make them perish is themselves. .

This can be seen from the current development of the "curse" incident in the Zerg. Zero doesn't know what the current situation is inside the three major civilizations, but it seems that as long as there are intelligent races that have not come into contact with the soul realm, they will never deal with such attacks. It is difficult to draw the conclusion that it will be better than the Zerg.

…………

Under the dark deep sky, the jumping swarms of insects caused waves of space fluctuations. They were the "vanguards" of the insect race. While attracting a large amount of enemy combat power on the frontal battlefield, they had followed the direction and penetrated into the entire area step by step. Inside the galaxy!

But what is unexpected is that, in order to avoid subsequent energy crises and to find out the status of each planetary system as much as possible along the way, they are all jumping towards the nearest star during detection, but they actually meet each other. Not many were defensive.

It is obvious that although they have seen the defense determination of the three major civilizations before, the vast majority of stars in this galaxy are undefended.

Zero doesn't mean to be polite at all. Since you don't want it, it's mine.

The insect swarm was rapidly replenished and silently expanding again and again, just like the exploration in the origin galaxy in the past, step by step, but the progress was countless times faster.

Zero knew very well that this place should only be the border, and it was normal to be desolate, but in fact, he also guessed some of the other party's civilization structure system.

For a race that has the ability to establish space channels, things like territory in a practical sense are indeed not that important. The universe is so vast that no one can occupy it all. The best solution is to control the most valuable star fields as much as possible. It would be enough to be able to claim sovereignty over a complete galaxy or even a galaxy cluster. There is no need to stick to those meaningless "territories". If necessary, they can be found everywhere in the universe.

If the prediction is correct, except for the period when civilization first entered the starry sky, the enemy is very likely to maintain this "fixed-point expansion" model. The resistance encountered now is just some means of dealing with the insect swarm in advance. .

After all, there is a high probability that they will not be able to arm every planet. Zero already understands the way of thinking of intelligent races relatively well. No matter what concepts they hold and how different their body structures are, the basic complexity is Completely connected.

That is to say, no matter what, as long as individuals still have their own thinking, then they will never be able to truly work wholeheartedly in a certain direction. The more individuals there are, the more so.

Even the many brainworms of the Zerg race, although they are all for the benefit of the Zerg race, sometimes they all have their own ideas, let alone the intelligent races.

In a sense, this is also the meaning of the ruler's existence, but no matter what, arming every planetary system within the territory is an impossible proposal to be passed. Even the Veggie Empire with the strongest execution will not do this. Otherwise, There is a real possibility that the empire will fall apart.

It’s not that it can’t be done, but it certainly can’t be done. Unless - life and death! That is, when there are more serious consequences before them than paying these prices.

Is it now a time of life and death for the three major civilizations? Many individuals with strategic vision have already encountered this day more than a thousand years ago. However, over the past thousand years, the three major civilizations have done little to deal with this. It can only be said that there is not much.

Obviously, not only the bottom, but even the top leaders do not feel that civilization has reached a critical point of life and death. Even the Vege Empire, which has been brought to pieces by continuous tossing, still retains a series of trump cards as a final resort.
