Overlord: Rise of the Zerg

The Korva Empire, a civilization entrenched in this star field, sharing the "three-thirds of the world" with the Hero Federation and the Veggie Empire, was gradually defeated by the most frenzied attacks of the Zerg.

At this moment, the outcome of the war is no longer a question that needs to be discussed. What price the empire has to pay to completely end this war is a question that the empire's top command, which was quickly reorganized, must think about.

Leaving is already an inevitable result. They cannot defeat the Zerg and cannot gain more benefits in the war. If the war continues, it will cause more serious trauma to the Korva Empire. This is even inevitable, and it is time to make a decision.

……

Zero is busy "attacking the city", and the Korva themselves are of course valuable. In addition to killing, the Zerg are also "accepting prisoners", of course, violently.

For so many years, the creative ability of the intelligent race has been zero. It can be said that if the "pure Zerg" path had been chosen, the Zerg swarm would not have developed to this extent now. Therefore, this action has been carried out consistently.

During the expansion of the insect swarm, there have been as many as sixteen races that have been judged to have sufficient potential. If the three major civilizations and some of their vassal races are included, this number will exceed twenty.

Each ethnic group has its own advantages and characteristics, and also has different requirements for the environment. Brainworm Todd has done a good job in this regard.

At the beginning, basically all captured races lived in biological structures made of giant insect species. This was undoubtedly a kind of control and surveillance, and it also avoided the chaos of the initial rule to the greatest extent. .

But a long time has passed, and although many changes have occurred in the process, today's Zerg intelligent group has completely changed its appearance. Except for the "remnants" of the three major civilizations that have recently been incorporated into the swarm's rule, all races have begun the process of self-construction.

Little by little, they got rid of most of their material dependence on the Zerg and got back on the track of normal development. Naturally, they also changed into the shape of the Zerg from the inside out.

Under the rule of the Zerg, although it cannot be said to be absolutely fair, it has eliminated a large number of sharp social contradictions to the greatest extent. Of course, under Todd's deliberate guidance, they have also formed a class that is different from the old civilization. This is the source of motivation for them to keep improving.

In Zerg 3929, a special "cargo" arrived at a scientific research base station in deep space after four years of continuous jumping.

Here is the Zerg research base closest to Korva's homeland. The war between the front line and Korva is still not over, but the opponent's will to resist is already very weak.

This was obviously a sign that he had other plans, but Zero didn't care.

Looking at the specious and very familiar regular polyhedron "stone" in front of him, Zero's mind was almost entirely devoted to it.

Except for the obvious difference in size, it is almost exactly the same as the one that the Zerg controlled back then!

Zero immediately carried out corresponding tests on it, that is, to observe whether it still had the ability to cause mutations in biological eggs or cubs, but this time he was disappointed.

Time passed day by day, and Todd paid close attention to the eggs of many creatures from various living planets around it, but nothing changed.

In terms of time, this is very inappropriate.

Todd did not continue to wait blindly, but directly conducted a detailed study on a batch of biological eggs. However, even if it narrowed the scope of research all the way to the genetic level, no obvious changes were found!

It is obvious that during this period, this "stone" did not play its due role.

What did the Korwan do to it?

Zero is not sure yet. The records about this "stone" are quite limited in the information collection of the Korva people. The other party has adopted extremely strict confidentiality measures. If you want to obtain these secrets, you must obtain information about this "stone". Part of the secret files, or directly arresting the living Korva senior officials who know the details can also be used.

But for now, the insect swarm has not been able to obtain relevant harvests.

Zero could only do his own research. Since there were no more controls, it was not convenient to segment the only sample. This brought some trouble to the work of Todd and the research station. Previously, Zero had no control over the original piece of Zerg. There was no time to do more experiments on the samples, so it was quite difficult to start at this time.

It's too valuable for the Zerg to use in many destructive ways, and regular testing doesn't mean much.

"Do you still want to swallow it?" Zero shook off his own thoughts. It was not that far yet, and it was too risky.

You must know that that "stone" transformed the ant colony into a completely different insect race! There is no guarantee that a similar accident will not happen this time. If another uncontrolled race emerges besides the Zerg, even if the chance of threatening the Zerg is very small, Zero will not be willing to take the risk.

The Zerg still have a lot of information about Kor'var, and there is still a long way to go.

……

Its physical parameters have almost been tested, because the original sample that led to the birth of the Zerg did not leave much information. A rough estimate is that its volume is only one-sixteenth of the previous one, and the mass ratio is also estimated to be different. Not big.

Even though the last time he came into contact with this kind of substance was more than three thousand years ago, Zero could still be sure that the items in his hands were not similar. They were the same substance, but there might be some subtle differences.

This point can only be broken through after obtaining the secret information of the Korva people, otherwise Zero will have to make some risky attempts.

Today's Zerg have the ability to control possible risks, and they can still protect themselves no matter how bad things happen. However, if they fetch water from a bamboo basket, they will lose this only sample, which is not cost-effective.

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

While expelling the Korva people, there is another thing that is equally important, that is, the soul invasion event.

In the process of attacking the three major civilizations, Zero could clearly discover the "favor" of the "soul body" that influenced the Zerg towards the intelligent races of the three major civilizations.

Different from the "little taste" of the Zerg, they will swarm these individuals with powerful brain potential almost as soon as they discover them.

As an enemy, Zero has no obligation to help the three major civilizations, and for the time being, he has no very effective means. The only small-scale "killing" requires too much cost and is not universal.

Since the other party did not attack the Zerg on a large scale, Zero was happy to see the results during the war.

But things are different now. These civilized individuals have actually become the "assets" of the Zerg, but they are still dying uncontrollably. This "curse" has not subsided because the war between the two sides has come to an end, and even Instead, it has a tendency to spread to other intelligent races controlled by Zerg.

There is no way to tolerate this.

Nowadays, Mira is still at war with the remaining Shiro Federation, which is still stubbornly resisting. Under its new expansion, Mira's advantage has greatly increased. In the past ten years, the Shiro Federation has gradually begun to be stretched, both in terms of military strength and military strength. With the transfer of personnel, it can be felt that it has become a bit sluggish.
