Chapter 181: The Development of the Zerg
On the flat ground covered with flowers, a little girl in a princess dress with black hair was chasing a fluttering butterfly, and not far from the little girl, a beautiful woman in court dress was sitting on a chaise longue and squinting lazily. The beautiful woman is extremely pretty, but her biggest feature is that she has a pair of small and cute pointed ears.
"I said you couldn't run away, hehe, I'm still caught......" At this time, the butterfly had already fallen into the palm of the little girl's hand, and I saw it fluttering its wings desperately trying to get away from this hateful creature that prevented it from flying freely, but unfortunately it was blocked by wisps of pale green ripples, but there was no way to leave anyway.
"It wants to play in the wider sky, just as you want to leave the star and soar in this sea of stars......" At this moment, the green ripples in the little girl's hand suddenly broke into wisps of smoke, and the butterfly that had regained its freedom finally asked for restraint and waved its wings away from her palm.
Since the incident of Tanan Star, the little girl has been grounded, although Chu Heng has never appeared in front of them all these years, it does not mean that he does not know about them, at this time, Xiao Chu Xin is almost exactly the same as five years ago, and has not grown up at all, this seems to be because of the blood of the elves, whether it is age or mind, it seems that he is less than ten years old.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Chuxin suddenly pursed her lips and looked at the man who suddenly appeared in front of her with annoyance, except for having the same black hair and pupils as her, he was just like an ordinary person, but she didn't know why she always felt that this person had an indescribable sense of familiarity.
"Are you...... Father? The little girl's face suddenly showed a look of surprise.
"You...... Recognize me? The person who came was naturally Chu Heng, and after retrieving his body under Kai Ruigan's surprised gaze, he fell back to Isis Star. How can you not be surprised to see that your daughter, who has never met before, knows herself?
"Well, although my father didn't show up, I have seen my father and my father's breath in Tananxing. I won't admit my mistake......" After Xiao Chu Xin finished speaking, he threw himself into Chu Heng's arms.
A warm current instantly poured into Chu Heng's heart, and that feeling Chu Heng couldn't put into words......
"You...... Coming back? Chu Xin's voice obviously alarmed her mother, Miriam didn't know when she had appeared by Chu Heng's side, with Chu Heng's strength, she didn't even notice it, which showed how violent his mental shock was.
"Don't listen to her, your statues can be seen everywhere in Isstar...... although he said this, Miriam caressed the little girl's hair lovingly. After the initial shock, Miriam seemed to have recovered, as if she knew that Chu Heng would come back sooner or later, and seeing this scene, Chu Heng's guilt was even worse.
And at the same time on a small hill less than a hundred meters away from them. Kerrigan, dressed in civilian clothes, showed a hint of a smile: "Kerryl, you seem to have failed......"
But when she said this, she didn't know whether she was relieved or disappointed.
And Chu Heng obviously also noticed Kai Ruigan's gaze, and after glancing at her, he focused his attention on the mother and daughter: "You go back first, and I'll accompany you later." ”
The little girl is gone. Grabbing Chu Heng's clothes and saying, "I won't allow you to leave......"
"Good. I still have some things to deal with......" Chu Heng kneaded the little girl's hair into a mess, but the little girl made up her mind and didn't let go.
"Good ...... Don't disturb your father......"
In the end, with the help of Mi Lian, Chu Heng got rid of Xiao Chu Xin, and compared to Chu Heng, Mi Lian seemed to be more authoritative in her psychology.
"Let's talk about something...... Walking in front of Kai Ruigan, the smile on Chu Heng's original face gradually condensed, and at this time, Chu Heng seemed to have returned to the body of the Star Devouring Beast, without feeling the slightest emotion.
"Is the master really going to stay?" Kerrigan asked curiously.
"It's not easy to do three things, I'm just here for a day." The body of the leader of the Miao tribe was only suppressed by him, and he had to retain a part of his consciousness in order to maintain this suppression, and since he discovered that the Star Devouring Beast would generate a new consciousness when his consciousness was completely gone, Chu Heng did not dare to completely relax, so now Chu Heng can be said to be single-minded and multi-purpose. But this situation can't last long, otherwise all three bodies may have unpredictable situations.
"What the hell is going on. I promised to accompany them. Chu Heng knew that it would be impossible for Kai Ruigan to disturb him if he didn't have anything important.
"We have thoroughly studied the main gun structure of the Blood Clan 8-tier battleship brought by the master, but it is extremely difficult to imitate it, but it is not completely impossible, and the space protection barrier researchers have no clue. In addition, after more than a year of testing, the lava worm has determined that its investment cycle is five years, and it can hatch on a large scale, but this will affect the expansion of the zerg. ”
Chu Heng's Star Devouring Beast body not only swallowed the random teleportation channel, but also swallowed more than a dozen Blood Clan's level 8 battleships, and handed them over to Kai Ruigan, and the Zerg researchers quickly dismantled them. However, what the Zerg lacks now is not the theory of science and technology, after all, Chu Heng has stolen the technology of the Blood Clan and the Eight Sects of Cloud Swallowing many times and handed them over to the insect swarm, and what the insect swarm really lacks now is accumulation.
The Lava Worm can be said to be a great success, and after a year of testing, the researchers have calculated that its input and recovery period is five years, which means that the Lava Worm only needs five years to absorb the energy needed for its hatching, and after recovering the cost, the subsequent time is the output.
However, the energy required for the hatching of the lava worm is too terrifying, and if it hatches in large quantities, then the swarm's plan to put the eggs into a random teleportation channel to spread the pace of expansion to the entire universe will be stopped, after all, the current energy of the Zerg is limited.
"Thick and thin, expansion is not in a hurry, first to complete the development of this area under our control." After having the lava worm, Chu Heng was no longer in a hurry to expand, although the lava worm was not as fast as the speed of developing the dark crystal ore to accumulate energy, but the star needed to win the lava worm was not a resource valued by advanced civilizations, and the places rich in dark crystal resources had been occupied by those powerful civilizations, and with the current strength of the Zerg, they could not compete with it at all.
"One more thing...... The speed at which the lava worm devours energy is far better than the self-burning of the star, if it is used to swallow an ordinary star normally, it will completely decay in just 10,000 years, and the lava worm also has a destructive method of extracting energy, its absorption rate will be increased by three times, but the average star can only withstand its mining in less than a thousand years at most. ”
"Use destructive mining ......" Chu Heng said without thinking about it, he had a hunch that the time for the steady development of the insect swarm was running out, and his time was running out......
"Got it, so it will take less than two years for the lava worm to pay for itself, but ...... It will leave a dead ground in the starry sky. ”
"How many billions of stars are there in a galaxy? And, when we are victorious, everything will be at peace. Chu Heng said lightly, he knew that Kai Ruigan didn't actually care about this, and he only felt when he said these words.
"Victory?" Kerrigan tilted his head and thought about it, what does the victory of the Zerg mean? Defeat the Cosmic Alliance? Annexation of the Eight Divisions of the Swallowing Clouds?
"Yes, victory......" Chu Heng replied affirmatively
The method of devouring stars is nowhere near as good as the energy obtained from the mining of dark crystals, but this is also the way that the Zerg have no way to do. Compared to the old Cosmic Empire, the current Zerg is still too immature to compete with it for resources, which is why Chu Heng is always looking for various ways to obtain energy, the power of faith, the Prometheus Project, the Tai mine and even the nuclear power plant, these are all ways that there is no way.
But Chu Heng felt that the path he took was not wrong at all, maybe the mining speed of a star or even ten hundred stars could not be compared with a dark crystal energy star, but the most important thing in the universe was the stars, when the stars that the Zerg occupied countless galaxies began to draw power, who would say that the Zerg would get less energy than mining the dark crystal ore?
In fact, in terms of obtaining resources, Chu Heng also had an idea, that is, with billions of years of accumulation of blood civilizations, the amount of resources they possessed was absolutely unimaginable for reorganization.
The way the blood clan ruled was destined to infinitely squeeze the intelligent civilization under their rule, raising these intelligent creatures and then using them as a host after the insect body split, and the strength of the blood clan for billions of years made these intelligent creatures unable to resist at all and could only be squeezed, and the oppression of generations also determined the servility of these intelligent creatures.
But now it is different, with the invasion of the Eight Tribes of Swallowing Clouds, the power of the Blood Clan has long been much worse than before, although compared to the rule of the Eight Tribes of the Blood Clan, the rule of the Eight Tribes of Swallowing Clouds will be more brutal, and even some Black Iron Tribes will directly slaughter the intelligent creatures of the entire galaxy in order to save trouble and create an interstellar ranch without danger, but the Eight Tribes of Swallowing Clouds are not completely deprived of their lives.
Compared with the lack of control over the blood insect body of the Blue Nightmare, the civilizations under the rule of the Blood Clan are easier to control, but the Blood Clan in order to prevent these civilizations from resisting excessive oppression, so that most of their civilization level is not high, and the Cloud Swallowing Eight cannot see their use value, which also causes a large-scale massacre, but under the rule of the Blood Clan, it is not without a powerful civilization that the Cloud Swallowing Eight can value.
Although the Blood Clan is now declining, its strength is still not something they can resist, so these civilizations will choose to continue to endure, but when the Eight Tribes of Cloud Swallowing gradually tear apart the defense line of the Blood Clan, these former Blood Clan's cannon fodder are likely to become their enemies in the blink of an eye. It is precisely because of this concern that the Blood Clan has used them less and less on the battlefield, which also determines that the Blood Clan's soldiers are beginning to dry up.
And the Zerg never bothered about the soldiers, which laid the foundation for the cooperation between the Blood Clan and the Zerg, with one side contributing energy and the other side sending troops. (To be continued......)
