Overlord: Rise of the Zerg

At this moment, there is another problem that Zero has to consider.

That is, who said that the same enemies will definitely be encountered at these two invasion points where enemies have not yet appeared?

What should we do if the enemy "changes his appearance"? The Zerg must be on record for this.

A clever woman cannot make a meal without rice. Based on the development foundation of the Zerg in the new universe, Sass really can no longer provide more psychic units for support.

There are indeed a number of psychic units in various bases in the new universe, and they are not even small in number, but they are the basis for the Zerg to obtain psychic energy in the new universe. They have been reduced to the limit by Sass, and they are not used anymore. They are equivalent to fishing from the lake, and there will never be the same output as now.

Therefore, it is never feasible.

For a moment, the insect swarm was even helpless. Zero had begun to think about the feasibility of deploying psychic units from other battlefields, but in the end he felt that it was not safe.

Is it possible to just allow the other party to invade and continue to engage in a more protracted war with the other party in the vast universe?

It is difficult for Zero to accept such a result. The Zerg has developed and been beaten passively, but overall it can be said to be smooth sailing. It has been like this for thousands of years. In this state, if it is possible, , Zero would rather turn all the resources of the galaxy into Zerg units to prevent the opponent from breaking through the defense line, than let the enemy develop and grow in the explored universe!

Of course, this is the worst case scenario.

The Zerg swarm's defense was organized in an orderly manner. Even if there were insufficient psychic units, Zero was coordinating as much as possible, trying to limit the possible outbreaks of these three battlefields within the acceptable range of the Zerg.

Under the premise of insufficient "hardware", this matter is very difficult. It is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw, and Sasse has done his best.

In Zerg 4675, the "No. Invasion Point", which Dagos paid close attention to and was fully responsible for, was fully opened. The biological fleet belonging to the same system as before launched a charge without hesitation towards the Zerg Swarm outside the absolute protection. So far, The opponent successfully opened a second battlefield, and the Zerg's psychic units became stretched thin.

If it's just these two points, Zero Confidence can handle it. After all, Sass in the new universe is always doing its best to provide support to the main universe. As time goes by, sooner or later, the insect swarm will be able to rely on the huge psychic units accumulated to survive. Block them back near the passage.

By then, if there are no big changes, even if it has a completely impenetrable defense, the opponent will forever lose the opportunity to invade the Zerg.

However, there are already clues of a third invasion point, and no one knows whether a fourth or even more will appear, and in what form they will appear.

Zero must make the most of limited resources. Under these conditions, any psychic unit is extremely valuable. He must have the means to compete with the opponent before the third battlefield is opened!

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

Many times, when facing something unknown, what is needed to understand it may not be powerful scientific research methods, but some actions related to it but not completely affected by it.

Just like this time, when the Zero and Cerebrates were squeezing the Zerg's only psychic combat power as much as possible, something happened.

Perhaps the Zerg's long-term heavy investment in scientific research has played its due role. The batch of biological materials and living materials that Visser and a few brainworms snatched back from the front line brought Zero a surprise like giving timely help. !

In these organisms that are very similar to the Zerg but completely different, unknown energy sources have been detected. Although the quantity is very small, the quality is extremely high!

In Zero's more than four thousand years of understanding the energy of the universe, except for spiritual energy, he has never seen any visible higher energy of the same energy level!

It is not at all as formless and formless as the spiritual energy that the Zerg have initially mastered. Instead, it is colorful and extremely conspicuous!

The research time is not long, and there is no time for a deeper understanding, but preliminary experiments have already drawn some conclusions. Each of these colorful energies contained in almost every individual represents a different attribute!

Its characteristics are difficult to describe, but if it must be described, it would be representatives of some basic natural attributes such as water, fire, etc. Of course, the so-called water and fire are just descriptions of energy properties, which does not mean that they are really this substance.

They are just descriptions that Zero uses to describe these elements based on his own understanding.

But compared to the spiritual energy that the Zerg now possess from the new universe, Zero is still more willing to describe it vividly as - magic!

The magic here has no magic power. It is still essentially energy that follows certain rules, but the other party's method of applying it is obviously beyond the Zerg's application of spiritual energy!

Judging from the comparison of the "ability" characteristics used by both parties, there is no reason to believe that the Zerg's development of psychic energy is still at an extremely primitive level.

……

In addition, there is another point worth noting, that is, after their death, the energy begins to rapidly escape into the main universe. Except for spiritual energy that seems to be of higher quality, nothing can stop this process!

At first, Zero wondered if they could be used to arm the Zerg with another type of weapon. Since there was a psychic insect species, it would not be a bad thing to arm another "magic insect species".

However, the nature of this energy is completely different from what Zero expected. After it loses control, it can be directly stimulated by external stimuli, but it cannot be directly absorbed and utilized like spiritual energy, at least not now.

More importantly, the Zerg swarm has no stable source of supplement for this. In the first phase of research, the Zerg swarm did not find an organ or other special device that produces this energy from the enemy's body.

To put it simply, the few "magic units" the Zerg have collected so far can only be used as consumables, which can be said to be better than nothing.

But the significance of these discoveries lies not only in the use of this equally rare energy, but more importantly, it points out, at least partially, the direction to deal with this crisis!

Each of these "elements" has possible means of being perfectly restrained! These elements have this phenomenon with each other, but they feel that this kind of restraint does not require these elements to be completed, as long as they are methods of similar nature, they may have some effect.

The only troublesome thing is that the Zerg need to find such an existence first. Psionics is a very feasible experimental direction. This has been closely verified, but there is no result yet.

What is certain is that if a way can be found to restrain the opponent, at least at this level, the insect swarm will have a qualitative improvement in their ability to apply psychic energy!

In any case, compared with zero forced transfer of Zerg psychic units to resist the opponent's invasion, the prospects and feasibility of this method are extremely high.

……

Including Sk, five psionic brainworms are participating in this research, trying to transform their own psionic powers into the form of restraining "magic".

I have to say that this idea is correct!
