I was reborn after playing a good hand badly

Even the Xia Kingdom was unable to cope with this wave of outbreak.

The central region of the country is still okay, but many cities and counties in Yunnei Province, Yiqing Province, Mo Province, and Yushuo Province have been hit by large-scale insect infestations, causing heavy losses in terms of population, buildings, and supplies.

After a brief period of confusion, Xia Guo finally managed to stabilize the situation. At least the water, electricity, and gas networks in most parts of the country were not affected, and life could go on.

The areas hit by the insect swarm are no longer habitable, and it is unknown how long it will take before we have time to clean up and rebuild them.

This outbreak of blue light insects officially marked the beginning of the Zerg invasion of the Blue Planet.

At the same time, another insect that looked like a mantis but was huge in size appeared. It was even more aggressive than the blue light insect and gradually became the main force of the invasion.

The research institute code-named this new type of Zerg, Mantis Beast.

It is quite large, and when standing up is about the same size as a human. Its torso and limbs are very strong, and it is covered with a layer of dark green carapace, which makes it difficult for ordinary weapons to penetrate.

The two sharp sickles on its forelimbs can easily cut through humans and buildings when swung, and most metals cannot withstand its attack.

Whenever the action team faces the mantis beast, several members need to work together to deal with it. If they are unlucky, even if the mantis beast is killed, it may take away one or two members.

Although the number of mantis beasts is not as large as that of blue light bugs, their combat records are not much different.

Over the past half month, the blue light bugs and mantis beasts have been killing like crazy on Blue Star.

The Xia Kingdom has dispatched four major military regions to garrison in various provinces to assist the Psychic Association in resisting the Zerg.

But many of those insects were killed, and the more they were killed, the more there were, as if they were endless.

Finally, someone made a new discovery in the area that had been attacked by the insect swarm.

It was a large area of ​​deep blue moss-like stuff, covering the walls of buildings, the ground, and various facilities on and off the streets, like a blue ocean.

People who saw these scenes died soon after. Autopsies revealed that they died of organ failure and infection...

The Psionic Association sent people to investigate and determined that the blue area was most likely the place where the Zerg were hatched.

When the association learned of this kind of place, it immediately sent people to clear it out.

The operation failed, but the existence of the "mother nest" was discovered, although no one had seen it with their own eyes.

Based on the collected information, the special team led by Mr. Dong has speculated the status and role of the "mother nest" in the Zerg. It is basically certain that a mature mother nest can continuously reproduce the Zerg. The original blue light insects can reproduce, and the later mantis beasts are also variants bred through the mother nest. It is unknown whether there will be other things in the future.

But everyone thinks that there is a high probability that it will happen.

The Zerg cannot be killed unless the mother nest is eliminated. Fang Wanfu dispatched a large number of people to collect intelligence on the mother nest and summarized the basic situation of the mother nest.

After the mother nest takes root in one place, it will gradually spread out the fungal mat and cannot move again. The fungal mat will release tiny spores that can easily be dispersed by the wind. If the spores are inhaled by humans or animals, it will cause organ failure.

Plants are slightly better, but they can't escape either. Plants covered by the fungus mat are sucked dry and will also rot.

Fortunately, the spores released by the fungal mat will naturally dissipate after a period of time, and will not be contagious if someone inhales them. Otherwise, more and more people will die...

No organization has been able to come up with effective drugs or methods to deal with the spores in a short period of time. Various teams are conducting research, but the results obviously cannot be achieved in a short period of time.

There was no other way, the central government could only order the relocation of people within a thirty-kilometer radius of the mother nest to avoid the dangerous restricted area until the problem was resolved.

In recent years, most cities have houses that have been built but not sold. The central government has integrated them and nationalized them at cost price, and all of them are used to accommodate people who have been relocated from disaster-stricken areas.

Several areas in Xia Country that had been attacked by insect swarms had created an environment and opportunity for the mother nest to grow, and traces of the mother nest had indeed been found in those places one after another.

Judging from the control range of the fungal mat, it has reached maturity.

This is a headache for leaders.

A strong attack has been tried and failed. The ammunition thrown in could only blow up the fungal blanket, and most of the energy was dissipated. The remaining part hit the Zerg. Even if there were casualties among them, it was very few. If the mother nest makes an effort, the number of Zerg can be doubled.

After each bombing, the rotten fungal blanket would recover and expand in range. Everyone felt aggrieved when they thought that the mother nest probably didn't mind their attacks at all.

It is not known whether more powerful equipment, if used, can solve the problem of the leaders of the mother nest, but it will definitely affect a nearby city or even further away.

Although the people around the mother nest have migrated, there are still many people left in the city and they cannot be ignored.

Huang Zhiguo also participated in the meeting. He sat behind Fang Wanfu and listened to various solutions being proposed and rejected one by one.

Huang Zhiguo was startled and withdrew his thoughts, focusing on the situation on the screen.

In the moment when he was distracted, a small team on the screen had already encountered the Zerg guarding the hive.

On the commercial street covered with fungal blankets, a captain stood on a high place and directed his team members to attack alternately, fighting with two mantis beasts with ease.

There are groups of blue light bugs harassing the area, but the team members are now very experienced in dealing with them. As long as the number does not reach a certain level, it is still easy for them to kill them.

The points you can get from killing the blue light bugs are now much lower than before. It has plummeted from 10 points half a month ago to 0.1 points now. It can be said that not many people are willing to collect even the corpses of blue light bugs now.

The value is too low and no one is willing to add to the burden.

There will always be someone to pick it up if it is left here. Even though they are not interested, there are many people who want it.

In the past half month, due to the Zerg invasion and the ravages of the plague, many people have lost their homes, and many people have survived by chance but their houses have been destroyed. Although they have been relocated with the government and allocated housing, how can they have their own house like before? That is impossible.

A few months ago, only psychic powers and secret realms appeared, and most people were doing what they had to do, so the impact had not been apparent so quickly. However, the sudden invaders were not so gentle.

In just a few days, their property was cleared out, and their jobs and lives were ruined.

If you can’t find a job in the migration area and need to support yourself or your family, what should you do? Picking up rubbish is a way out.

In five minutes, the two mantis beasts were killed by their combined efforts.

After the team members separated out the more valuable materials on the spot, they gathered the bodies aside and continued forward.

Huang Zhiguo was very confident in the four teams he had selected to carry out the mission this time. Seeing that each team on the screen was advancing steadily towards the center of the fungal mat, he nodded with satisfaction.
