Walk alone in the abyss

Made!

The New Federation is raising bugs!

In the taxi that turned back the same way, Yang Ming clutched his stomach and groaned softly.

The driver kept looking at Yang Ming, for fear that the guest could not help but dirty his car.

The driver smiled dryly: "Yes, you can't go to the hot spring with diarrhea, although there are men and women bathing there... Hold on! You can do it, boy! I'll take you to the nearest toilet!"

Yang Ming forced a smile, but lines of words jumped out of his glasses.

Obviously, Lu was also frightened by the information that Yang Ming sent back.

【insect? Is it really Zerg boss? Is that the space Zerg with collective evolution ability? 】

[Is the New Federation crazy? They are doing this secretly! 】

[I suddenly understand why they said that those things can consume the national strength of the Sherman Empire. As long as a female worm begins to reproduce on an uninhabited planet within the Sherman Empire, and the reproduction has not been found for more than ten years, it will There will be a terrifying Zerg army! The Zerg feed on the minerals needed by various radiation and curvature engines, and they will actively attack the resource stars of the Sherman Empire! 】

[However, aren't space zergs the mortal enemies of human beings? 】

【Well, this is human. 】

Although Yang Ming wanted to refute, but there were monitoring devices in the taxi, he could only watch Liu Zai chattering there, writhing around with his stomach in his arms.

The Zerg, commonly known as the Space Zerg, is a kind of cosmic creature.

Yang Ming is very familiar with this thing.

The Zerg is the villain with the most appearances in "The Abyss". It is called the second disaster. It occurs frequently and is extremely destructive. The degree of danger is second only to the sudden attack of high-dimensional civilization.

According to the introduction in "Abyss":

The space Zerg has a strict social system similar to a bee colony, and a complete group has extremely high 'average' intelligence.

The size of a Zerg group ranges from 300 million to 2 billion, and they can self-regulate the size of the group.

A group has only one female worm—the queen.

The male insects who are responsible for mating with the female insects are like the ministers of the group. They are responsible for dispatching the entire group, and when the queen needs it, they will dedicate their bodies to provide the materials needed for the queen to evolve.

Except for the queen and ministers, the rest of the bugs are asexual and have no ability to reproduce. Individuals can differentiate and evolve in different directions to meet the needs of the group.

The evolution of the Queen represents the sublimation of the Zerg. When the Queen evolves to the third level, the Zerg will have the ability to travel across space, and there will be a "mimetic battleship" condensed from a large number of Zerg bodies.

When the Queen evolves to the fifth level, special individuals that can dig space wormholes will appear in the Zerg Swarm, allowing the Zerg to easily cross the star system.

The activity of the Zerg is cyclical, and each active period is about four to five hundred years apart.

They eat radiation as their basic food and like to hide in the mantle layers of rocky planets.

When the queen evolves to the sixth level and it judges that there is no threat in the nearby star field, the queen and the male insects will enter the stage of frantic reproduction, giving birth to new queen larvae, and spreading the population towards different galaxies.

Yang Ming was very impressed by the introductions in several high-level Zerg dungeons.

for example:

"Space Zerg is a form of biological civilization that is completely different from our humans or humanoid life forms, and they are the real life of the universe.

"Humans' tiny bodies are nothing compared to their bodies with infinite evolutionary ability.

"However, in our wars with them, we usually win more than we lose, because as long as human beings fail once, the plague of insects will spread to the entire galaxy."

or:

"We still can't understand why the Zerg's method of opening wormholes is so similar to our starship transition."

"The Zerg may be guided by gravity to migrate across large galaxy clusters in the universe."

"We tried to communicate with the Zerg. After all, the greatest art of human beings is compromise and negotiation, but without exception, the communication failed, and we couldn't understand each other."

…

In short, the Zerg is the mortal enemy of the human race in the Milky Way.

And the New Federation actually raises bugs under the planet Ram!

This... is really not afraid of losing control, is it? There are millions of pensioners here!

As the taxi left the small town, the restlessness in Yang Ming's heart gradually subsided.

But as long as he closes his eyes, there will be rows of insect eggs emitting faint light in front of him.

These eggs are about two meters in size.

Yang Ming recalled the information in "Abyss" carefully, and now he realizes how precious the "game information database" that he could check at any time when playing games back then was so precious.

It was literally an encyclopedia of the galaxy.

The presence of eggs indicates the presence of female worms.

The light green light seems to be the eggs laid by the first- and second-order female insects. The hatched insects can grow to half a meter or twelve meters. After these insects are born, they will follow the biological signals sent by the mother insects. Determine different evolutionary paths, and supplement what kind of jobs are lacking.

The common combat bugs are also the 'monsters' that Yang Ming frequently spawns when playing "Abyss". They can be roughly divided into more than a dozen categories such as melee bugs, far fire bugs, self-demolition bugs, ship destroyers, shield bugs... and so on.

As long as they are given enough radiant energy, they can continue to grow.

If these worms can move freely, they will find ways to find the energy source needed by the mother worm, as well as the minerals needed for the evolution of the mother worm, so that the group can prosper quickly.

But obviously, the bugs here are strictly controlled by humans.

Add a 'temporary' to these adjectives.

Damn.

The Sherman Empire used the ancient god's gene to conduct human experiments, and created an uncontrollable monster like the Valkyrie.

——Well, if it develops according to 'normal', the Valkyrie will be trapped in that scientific research ship by Kigrove, and there will be no extra opportunities to learn and evolve.

The Valkyries are now able to run around the starry sky and continue to evolve, thanks to Yang Ming's contribution.

The New Federation conducted sufficient cultivation experiments under the Agricultural Star, produced a bunch of eggs, and wanted to stuff these things into the territory of the Sherman Empire.

No wonder!

Yang Ming suddenly reacted.

No wonder in the plot background of the "Abyss" game, during the ten to twenty galaxy years before the game was launched, insect plagues broke out in the Sherman Empire one after another, and the national power declined sharply.

People from all walks of life suspect that it is the evil empire that is experimenting with zerg domestication.

Unexpectedly, the Sherman Empire was overshadowed by the New Federation.

The source of these pest plagues is the New Federation, and then the New Federation also spread rumors saying that "this is a gift from the gods to the hegemony of the Sherman Empire."

In a sense, a hypocritical federation is more annoying than an evil empire.

The problem is, the New Federation is now going to use Zerg to deal with Luofeng.

It's really possible, and it's simple to implement.

All it takes is an old transport ship and a dozen or so crew members who can be wiped out afterwards, and a ship of worm eggs and queen larvae can be sent to an uninhabited planet near a certain administrative star of the Luofeng Empire.

In a few years, the Luofeng Empire will suffer catastrophe.

Yang Ming really wanted to swear a few words.

But now, there was a more immediate problem bothering him.

Are the life forms of ancient gods and Zerg natural enemies?

'How about Zerg against Valkyries? '

Major Yang Ming, who never forgot his original intention, subconsciously considered the feasibility of this matter.

...

at the same time.

"Professor! The riot of the experimental swarm has temporarily subsided!"

Professor Pat hurriedly walked in the spacious passageway of the underground base.

The base was in chaos, and there was still green blood on the walls.

Lying in the front corner was the corpse of an insect that had lost its head and half of its limbs, leaving only its torso. It looked like a slender 'crab' with a hard shell on its body, and its sharp blade exuded a metallic luster.

Such corpses can be seen everywhere in front of them.

There was a pungent stench in the air.

There were two staff members wearing biochemical suits in front of them, bringing a breathing purification device for Professor Pat, but Professor Pat pushed them away.

He rushed out of the corridor, reached the edge of the vast mountain space, and leaned on the railing to look down.

Dead bugs are everywhere.

Most of the worm carcasses had their heads blown off and their nerve centers—hind limbs.

The corpses of these bugs were all facing the same direction.

At the bottom of this mountain space with a diameter of nearly a kilometer, a metal tank with a diameter of 100 meters is suspended on the hot magma lake.

At this moment, the tank was filled with an excessive amount of hypnotic gas, and the huge female worm seemed to be hidden in the thick fog, and was falling backwards.

Its appearance is completely different from the surrounding insect corpses. The rear half of the body is bloated, the middle is slender, and the upper body has a vaguely humanoid outline. The head is covered by a mouthpart that overlaps dozens of layers.

Its bloated belly was shining with a faint light at the moment.

Professor Pat breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the chaotic scene below, and whispered: "The mother worm suddenly woke up just now?"

"Professor, it's very unexpected and sudden. She hasn't woken up for twelve years," the middle-aged man hurriedly said, "It's close to the boundary of evolution, and we suspect it's because of this. "

"Is there any problem with the female eggs we cultivated?"

"Those female eggs showed different degrees of rapid development."

The middle-aged man hesitated, then said:

"Also, I have to explain it to you in detail.

"We have been controlling the number of hatched insect swarms to around 400, and they are kept in different testing grounds.

"Just now, about half a minute before the mother worm suddenly woke up, these worms lost control at the same time, and they rushed here desperately, and the mother worm woke up under their call.

"According to my feeling... this is just a feeling, but I have been here for more than ten years, professor, my intuition tells me that this riot is not like before, it is an attack on us, let the mother worm return free.

"They didn't attack us, but rushed towards the mother worm in a swarm, acting more like protecting the mother worm.

"Moreover, twelve basic worms evolved wings within a few minutes... They wanted to carry the female worm away, and three male worms chose to use self-sacrifice to try to make the female worm evolve quickly.

"They were frightened, and it felt like, a deadly fright."

Professor Pat frowned and looked at the technical backbone, and asked softly: "What frightened them?"

"According to the information we have now, ordinary swarms rarely produce emotions."

The middle-aged man whispered:

"They are cold and indifferent. Their nerve centers are only controlled by the mother worm. We can find extraordinary computing levels in the mother worm at any time, but ordinary worms, especially basic worms, their radiation wave Rarely, only passive acceptance.

"But just now, these ordinary bugs formed a huge radiation feedback, and it was their fear that woke up the mother bug.

"I personally feel so."

Professor Pat frowned and looked at the middle-aged man, and said in a low voice: "Don't trust your intuition, show the observation data."

"Okay professor, I'll go right away!"

"How is your daughter recently?" Professor Pat asked suddenly.

"She's fine," the middle-aged man wondered, "Why do you ask this?"

"I'm worried that you're under too much pressure," Professor Pat said in a low voice. "When you're under a lot of pressure, you can talk to your daughter. It's a good thing that you haven't injured many people this time. However, if you encounter this situation next time , can detonate the action centers of these bugs a little faster, this thing has a strong reproductive ability, so there is no need to worry about the loss of experimental samples."

"Okay professor, I see."

...

Wow——

Ram Star, the restroom near the check-in desk at Commercial Aviation Airport.

Yang Ming stared at the rushing water, and was slightly stunned for a while.

Now that the secret of Star Ram has been clarified, the next step is to formulate a plan on how to prevent the new federation from engaging in Luofeng.

The cheapest way is to attack the transport ship of the New Federation to transport the eggs, but that is too passive.

Two lines of text were drawn across the glasses:

【Boss, are you going to leave Ram Star as planned? 】

[I can temporarily suspend the transportation system here, and a little electronic virus can do it. 】

Yang Ming's ears twitched slightly, he lowered his head and washed his face, took out his candy bar network access terminal, and took a short video of himself.

"The experience this time was pretty good. Ram Star is a great tourist planet, but it's a pity that I missed the public bathing hot spring.

"Next, I will go to AUSTAR to continue traveling, and I am looking forward to the next trip."

clatter.

Yang Ming turned off the network access terminal, smiled and nodded to the two passengers who walked in, and left with backpacks on their backs.

Let's get down to business first, and then we'll talk after we get the booster injection.

He has to think of a way to abort the conspiracy of the new federation.

These are all galactic powers.

No more faces!

Inside the Feinan, Li released several observation drones, and under the cover of the Ram star satellite, began to monitor the nearby star roads and transition points.

026 slowly closed the e-book over there. His face was pale and he was stunned for a long time before he spoke with lingering fear:

"Zerg, the next day's disaster, the new federation is artificially controlling the second day's disaster, should we call the police! If a bug plague breaks out, I read that hundreds of millions of humans will die, and many planets will suffer disasters."

"Calm down, 026."

Lil rubbed his forehead with his fingers:

"You get along with the boss every day, why be afraid of those Zerg."

"But Mr. Yang Ming is a gentle human being."

Yang Ming's figure appeared in 026's heart, and his tension eased a lot:

"He is knowledgeable, brave, and has great strength. It is easy to make people feel dependent... But what does it have to do with the terrible Zerg?"

Law: "...you are happy. In short, don't worry too much, we will have a super fleet that can't lose to high-level Zerg in the future."

026 nodded immediately, and then continued to open the e-book, looking for ways to prevent and control the space zerg.

No one found out.

When the merchant ship that Yang Ming was on left the atmosphere of Ram planet, in that hidden underground base, it was in the giant petri dish where the female worms were stored.

Under the cover of the complex and terrifying mouthparts of the supposedly unconscious female worm, the scarlet eyes hidden inside slightly opened, emitting a gleam of light.

The surrounding buildings and facilities seem to disappear;

The rows of insect eggs placed on the metal frame now had faint spots of light appearing at the bottom.
