Chapter 0576 is finished(2/2)
"How could such a strange thing happen? This shouldn't be like this..."
Ashley did not continue to try to attack because she had seen clearly: the larva's beetle has not even a little white mark so far!
Such hardness and toughness are already obvious!
Since she had shot so many times but could not break it, then even if she continued to shoot, it would definitely be futile... But what she didn't understand was that she clearly saw many monsters that could jump, as well as snake-like monsters that could spur spines like snakes. They were obviously killed and injured by the harvester, but now, why is this inconspicuous bug so weird?
"Haha! Look, it's bounced away?"
"No matter how you shoot, it's useless. It's very powerful!"
o(^▽^)o??
Even though she had never attacked this little bug alone, Anne could see the toughness of the other party's shell at a glance. This was the reason why she was so gloating just now and letting this big sister Ashley shoot at the bug!
In fact, this kind of insect is not impossible to kill, but it has been protected by the Zergs. If you want to hurt them, you need to find a way, such as picking weaker joints, mouthparts, etc., instead of shooting randomly on the other party's shell.
‘I just warned you, Ms. Ashley…’
‘You don’t have to show that expression, let me tell you: I once made a bet with someone, and then, I used my big sword to cut it...and then, I lost a month’s salary…’
At this time, Galen's holographic images in the communication also comforted Ms. Ashley who was also comforting the Star League. Thinking of the game he had bet with the group of larvae-cutting matches, his face was still a little dark now... Obviously, he, who had been cheated once, now has a deep memory!
"Look, what are they doing now?"
At this time, the Asari Liara, who had been silently observing the movements of the insects, couldn't help but exclaim.
It turned out that she discovered that those a little strange bugs with wings like wings, the kind of guys who can float and fly without relying on flapping their wings, are now spreading a layer of strange dark red matter on the earth of the planet Menel. I don’t know what they are going to do... Those things like blankets are actually gradually spread on the ground and slowly expanding around the earth like life.
‘That thing is called a fungus blanket!’
‘At that time, a biochemical substance that nourishes and maintains the colony of the insects, on which they can heal Zerg units and provide speed bonuses…and of course, there are some more magical effects!’
Garen, who once opposed the bugs, is of course very familiar with everything about them!
After all, they have long studied all the habits and specialties of each other, and have a relatively detailed understanding of the way the insects reproduction, soldiers, gene evolution, nest building, etc.! Not to mention that now, after the unification of the star zone and fighting side by side many times, their humans and the predecessors' understanding of the insects has become more in-depth.
He could not have imagined before that the buildings of the Zerg were actually just giant organs and organisms!
And the colonies on the entire Zerg planet, no matter how big or small, are linked together by a bacterial blanket, they are just part of a living creature! It can be said that a complete insect colony is a huge and independent individual creature!
That's right, it's just one!
An independent insect swarm base, whether it is a small area or a kind of planet, is actually just a creature, not a group! For example, huge buildings such as insect swarm, whether it is hatchery, split pool, insect hole, infection abyss, main nest, thunder beast cave, or other insect swarm buildings, they are actually just some constituent organs in the entire insect swarm base, not independent individuals.
The more organs they have, the more powerful the wisdom and power of the insect swarm base will become, and the higher the production and hatching ability will be!
For things like this, Garen gradually understood this after the star area was completely unified... It is precisely because of the existence of the bacterial blanket that the insects can provide this huge group with the nutrients they need, the conditions for evolution and the basic tissue for hatching and mutation, etc.
As before, whenever the Zergs go to a new place, they will definitely produce a biological carpet tissue that is active, which they call that thing a creep! The creep can be produced by hatcheries or by some kind of expanded organ building. They can erode any land that can reproduce abnormally quickly, such as the planet Menel of the Turi people now!
The alien insects occupy this planet must have started with the fungus blanket! If there is no restriction, in the near future, the alien insects' base, the fungus blankets and various insect nest buildings will definitely completely cover the planet Menel and drive the Turi people out?
Of course, Galen would definitely not tell the things that such as this!
Therefore, in the Kepru area, whether it is the human planet or the predecessor planet, they strictly prohibit any insect from laying a bacteria blanket on the planet they live in! Because if you do that, if you are not careful, it will cause extremely serious consequences!
First, it is because the life of those bacterial blankets is very long-lasting, and it is growing, expanding, splitting and expanding all the time. Some people will shrink from the occupied land only when the hatchery or colony is destroyed, but they will not die completely. Someone also needs to carry out special cleaning work!
For example, burning a little by little with a bad fire tank? However, it was a protracted and costly process, and no one on that planet would choose to do that!
Therefore, if a legion is spread out and a colony of insects is built on a certain planet, it will be a huge disaster for that planet...
"What magical effect?!"
Asari's little lolilia, well, if you don't look at her age of over 100, but just her body shape, you should be a big loli? Anyway, she is particularly interested in academic issues now, especially the alien Zerg she has seen for the first time. She said she is very curious about everything about them and wants to study them very much!
So, after watching the strange insects in the distance gradually spread a thick layer of strange things on a large area of land, she couldn't wait to ask General Garen, who seemed to know a lot.
‘Actually nothing…’
‘Look, they are now starting…the base of the insect swarm is finally starting to spread out…’
As soon as Garen finished his words, they all clearly saw that in the distance, on the huge mushroom blanket, the flat suspended bugs began to slowly turn into a flesh pupa lying on the mushroom blanket, and they squirmed and expanded rapidly like their hearts.
Soon, they gradually changed from a ball of meat that was only one person high to a huge ball of meat that was several people high? And they were still squirming and expanding constantly?
"What a magical thing... This is how the insects' base came from?!"
Leara was surprised. She always thought that the bugs built a nest just to drill holes on the ground, just like the various insects on most life planets in the Milky Way now! Of course, there are also the Ricken bugs who were once exterminated by the God Castle. They also drilled holes under the planet to build nests.
But how could these alien insects now be like this kind of nesting method that looks very novel?
“It’s disgusting!”
"It looks like a squirming ball of rotten meat..."
Miranda narrowed her eyes and turned her head away with some disgust.
She didn't like that kind of thing, a large ball of weird and squirming flesh, which looked a bit too unacceptable, and made her feel like she had goosebumps in an instant.
“…”
(ー`??ー)
"I would never want to eat the meat of those bugs, even if they grow big and look like animals?"
(/▽\)
After staring at the other party's appearance when he was building the base for a while, Annie immediately extinguished the idea of her planning to continue to catch a big guy here and continue playing for a while! She now also felt that if she kept it covered up, her appetite would definitely be seriously affected!
“…”
"His Excellency Anne, and everyone... I'll go to preside over the affairs of our swarm first, goodbye."
When the Zagara worm heard the ill words of their swarm in front of it, he apologized unhappily and moved its slightly huge body directly, climbed to the cliff, and led her larvae to climb towards the hatchery that was being built and constantly expanding in the distance.
Now that the swarm begins to gain a foothold on this planet, maybe it is time for the swarm’s genetic experts to let that guy Abathur come to take charge of the evolution-related matters... Only in that way can it maximize the combat effectiveness of their swarms!
And now, whether it is humans, Asaris or Turis, except for the little Anne who cannot afford to offend, the other people are not taken seriously by it as the worm.
If they had changed places, they might have been eaten by its insects as food!
‘Okay, everyone!’
‘Since your affairs have been solved perfectly, I should end the call as well. I have really had a lot of things recently…’
After seeing that the matter was settled on the planet Menel of the Turri, and the insect swarm began to reap the harvester and the fact that the Turri would no longer threaten the Turri, Galen, who was busy dealing with other things, directly spoke up and said goodbye:
‘Wait! It seems like there is one more thing?’
‘Master Anne, the Protos seem to have caught two strange guys, brought from the Kopru Star Zone, if you have time next time, you can go back to the solar system? They should be still in prison on the Spear of Aden?’
Garen, who was about to leave, suddenly remembered the powerful red monster they had seen on the Spear of Aden and another weird fishman... So he mentioned it in front of their heads of state.
"oh……"
(????.?????)
After responding, Annie picked up the communicator and turned it off!
She didn't want to care about what strange guy the Star Spirits caught! Now, she remembered that the chef uncle on Normandy No. 2 should have almost done her lunch, so she had to go back and fill her stomach quickly and not stay here.
‘Si…’
‘Commander? Normandy II received a strange communication. I think if you have done the matter on the planet, it would be better to come back quickly?’
At this time, Shepard's universal tool also sounded, and the voice of the clown, the helmsman of Normandy No. 2, now on the Menel track, must have seen everything that happened on the ground, so the clown spoke at this time to remind everyone who seemed to want to continue to observe the insect group to build the base.
"Get it! We'll be back soon!"
Shepard almost forgot that she didn't say that, they seemed to be going to rescue Athena Nebula, who was the Asaris!
However……
“!!”
"Where did she go that guy Annie? She was obviously still here just now!"
When she turned her head, Shepard found that some little guy who was still behind them had disappeared again? So, in a hurry to go back, she could only turn around and search.
"What does it mean to look at me with that look?"
"Commander Shepard... I really didn't take her to mess around this time. I'm still here now, and I don't know where she went!!"
Miranda glared at Shepard without hesitation. She was still here. How could she rely on her for such a thing?
‘…’
‘Commander! His Excellency Anne is now in the restaurant No. 2 in Normandy, and she suddenly appeared here…’
At this time, the artificial intelligence of Normandy No. 2, the edi sound appeared in Shepard's universal tool in time.
Chapter completed!
