From Pirates to Sweeping the Worlds

Originally, Xia Jieren relied on the energy of the Zerg core and could survive without eating every day and only needed a small amount of water.

At first, Xia Jieren was quite happy, "Finally I don't have to waste time eating."

But after a few days, he began to feel extremely awkward, as if a piece of his life was missing.

So, Xia Jieren resumed his normal three meals a day.

Chong Er actively studies various seasonings and constantly improves his cooking skills.

Now the dishes made by Chong Er are already very good and completely satisfy Xia Jieren's taste buds.

Of course, this may also be related to the fact that he has never eaten any delicious food.

In short, Xia Jieren has come to regard eating as a kind of enjoyment.

Ever since he got the Zerg core, he no longer felt full.

For Xia Jieren, this is pretty good. "I won't get fat no matter how much I eat! I'm happy! (*^▽^*)"

Moreover, the meat of animals in this world is very delicious and can be eaten by simply grilling it.

Especially these animals that are specially raised by insect people.

The feed they eat is energy blocks specially made by the Zerg, which contain rich nutrients that can make the meat more delicious.

In addition, there is a certain chance that animals will undergo benign mutations.

According to Kerrigan, most animals can eat this energy block, and of course humans can too.

Unfortunately, Xia Jieren had no desire to try it, no matter how rich its nutritional value was.

Let’s start by saying no to foods that are weird in shape or have strange smells.

Xia Jieren looked in front of the chicken coop and saw two roosters lying quietly on the ground resting.

In order to ensure the smooth opening of the chicken coop, the insect people have been searching for hens in the jungle these days.

Maybe because of too frequent hunting in the past, pheasants have not been seen nearby for a long time.

"Since we can't find any, let the mother nest hatch two hens directly."

Xia Jieren said with a headache.

In fact, he didn't want to do this. He always felt weird when eating chicken afterwards.

Shaking his head, Xia Jieren stopped thinking about it and decided to deal with the "important life events" of the two roosters first.

At this moment, he was somewhat thankful and said, "Fortunately, I have caught some hens before, and there are records in the gene bank. Otherwise, how can the two roosters achieve chicken freedom?"

This is a very good habit. Any gene that is not in the gene bank is worth including in the Zerg.

After leaving the chicken coop, Xia Jieren went straight to the rabbit coop and poked his head inside.

Unlike the two lonely single chickens in the chicken coop, the rabbit coop is very lively.

It has to be said that the reproductive capacity of rabbits cannot be underestimated no matter in which world.

Just two wild rabbits, a male and a female, multiplied their population several times in less than a week.

Xia Jieren counted them carefully and happily, there were twenty-six in total.

"Cuckoo! Cuckoo!"

After hearing the sound, Xia Jieren turned his head to look.

I saw two hens walking over from the direction of the nest, coming to the chicken coop, and flying straight in with flapping wings.

Seeing how obedient they were, Xia Jieren instantly understood that these hens were also controlled by the Zerg.

He thought to himself, "I will never eat them again."

Similarly, Xia Jieren would not eat Zerg units such as worker bees. Just thinking about it made him feel disgusted.

Xia Jieren looked at the breeding area in front of him with joy.

But Kerrigan didn't understand, "Master Overlord, why don't you just let the hive produce meat directly!"

“That way less energy is consumed.”

"Uh......"

Xia Jieren shuddered and waved his hands, "I would feel very uncomfortable eating the meat produced by the mother nest directly."

"I still prefer green and healthy meat."

Kerrigan tilted her head, still very confused, but did not continue to ask.

Why not choose to produce directly through the mother nest instead of spending time and effort on farming?

In addition to the reasons Xia Jieren mentioned above, the biggest reason is that Xia Jieren really likes the feeling of farming.

He feels great joy every time he harvests.

Super high productivity + free labor = good news for farmers.

How could Xia Jieren not like such Zerg?

After visiting the breeding area, Xia Jieren walked forward two or three steps and arrived at the fruit and vegetable area.

Although only two or three acres of land have been opened up here, wild vegetables, berries and apple trees are planted in an orderly manner.

Seeing the fruit trees laden with fruits, Xia Jieren exclaimed: "The seeds produced by the mother nest are cattle."

"In just less than two weeks, the apple tree completed two to three years of growth."

After Xia Jieren looked at it a few more times, he left reluctantly.

Next, he needs to go and see what the insect people have achieved in the past two days.

He turned around and soon arrived at the back of the training ground. At this time, near Mirror Lake, a simple dock had been erected.

Taking a closer look, Xia Jieren's mouth twitched at the dock's overly simple design and incomplete equipment.

"Can this also be used to build a fishing boat?"

Xia Jieren was full of doubts:

But when he saw a powerful insect man easily lift a tree weighing more than 1 ton, Xia Jieren felt that he could understand Insect Two's intention.

There is no need to build a fully equipped dock at this stage. All the current problems can be solved by relying on the power of the insect people.

I saw the insects hammering there, some were splicing wooden boards, some were installing keels, and some were hollowing out wood. They were working very hard.

Xia Jieren didn't feel like disturbing them, so he walked out of the dock and came to a simple pier.

At this time, a wooden fishing boat was docked at the pier. The fishing boat was about 8 meters long, 3 meters wide, and 2 meters deep, and could carry a maximum of about 1.5 tons.

This is the estimate given by Kerrigan.

Xia Jieren was very satisfied with this, after all, this was made by Chong Er and his friends based on Xia Jieren's memory. It was good enough to be usable, so we couldn't expect too much.

Because the fishing boat's carrying capacity is too low, it cannot load too much catch at one time.

Chong Er and his friends could only put more effort into the fishing net. For the time being, they stopped casting nets to catch fish and instead adopted the trawl method.

This method is just right considering the rich fishery resources in Mirror Lake.

The prerequisite for using trawling is to have a sturdy fishing net.

This is not a problem for the Zerg, after all, extracting and producing plant fibers is a piece of cake for the hive.

The raw materials for the fishing net were quickly gathered, and Chong Er and his team just spent a little time on the knotting process.

Xia Jieren only waited for an hour, and the fishing nets and fishing boats were ready.

Next it is time for the four powerful insect men to perform.

They first rowed the fishing boat away from the shore, tied a heavy object to the end of the trawl net, threw it into the water, and then rowed the boat in one direction.
