Chapter 612: Rebuilding the Swarm
The insect queen took Qin Hao around the new planet casually, this planet is still in a very primitive era, and there are a large number of dinosaur-like reptiles living on it, and they are the masters of this planet.
However, the good days of these big guys are obviously over, the arrival of the Zerg makes them quickly withdraw from the stage of history, or it won't be long before the overwhelming swarm of insects will occupy the entire planet, and then these huge creatures will become the rations of the Zerg.
"It's better than I thought it would be." The queen nodded in satisfaction.
"Master, are there any ghost energy crystals on this planet?" Qin Hao asked.
"There are no spectral crystals here, but there is another high-energy mineral that can also support the reproduction and evolution of the swarm." The insect queen said, and then she waved her hand and led Qin Hao to a valley.
"Master, is there a vein of energy crystals here?" Qin Hao asked.
"Hmm!" The insect queen nodded, then she stretched out her hand and pointed at it, a fluorescent light condensed between her fingers, and a second later, the light exploded, and Qin Hao saw a bright light like the main cannon of a battleship.
After the light passed, a deep cavern was carved out of the opposite mountain, the walls of the cave were smooth as mirrors, and had been burned to a glass-like texture by the heat.
"Let's go! Let's go in and see. After saying that, the queen stepped inside.
Although the cave was very dark, and Qin Hao and the Queen of Worms did not have any light source in their hands, fortunately, the visual systems of these two people were not comparable to ordinary people, so although their vision was limited in this dark cave, they were not affected much.
Soon, Qin Hao felt a powerful energy fluctuation, which was thicker and deeper than the Ghost Energy Crystal.
"The texture of these energy minerals is very good, they are not as violent as the ghost energy crystal, they are easier to store and mine, although when they are used, it takes some effort to excite, but overall it is not bad, especially the reserves of this crystal are large, enough for the insect swarm." I don't know when the queen of worms has an extra fist-sized crystal in her hand.
"Master, can I take a look?" Qin Hao asked.
"Give." The queen of worms directly threw the small piece of energy crystal over.
"Smack." Qin Hao took this energy crystal in his hand, and then he closed his eyes and felt the energy in this crystal, just like the ghost energy crystal, Qin Hao could also extract the energy in this crystal to replenish his spiritual energy.
However, compared to the Spectral Energy Crystal, this energy crystal requires more effort and takes longer to extract energy.
The characteristics of this energy crystal are stable and continuous energy output, rather than bursting energy like ghost crystals, compared to these crystals are more suitable for human use.
Because in human equipment, energy crystals are used as energy amplifiers or energy sources, whether it is a lightsaber or an energy cannon, they need a stable long-term energy supply, and the explosive thing like a ghost energy crystal is actually more suitable for making energy bombs.
However, due to the extreme lack of energy crystal resources of human beings, even if it is a ghost energy crystal, they are reluctant to use it to make bombs, although using energy crystals as energy amplifiers or energy sources for weapons and equipment will increase the instability of the equipment, but they have no better choice.
For Qin Hao, the energy crystal of the homeland star is more suitable for post-war supply, it can steadily replenish Qin Hao's spiritual energy, gentle and efficient, but the ghost energy crystal is the best battlefield supply, this thing can instantly replenish Qin Hao's lost spiritual energy, so that he can regain his combat effectiveness, although the hesitation in the process of replenishment is too strong, it will bring some damage to Qin Hao, but the battle on the battlefield is time, will the enemy give you time to recover slowly?
Compared to life, the little damage caused by using the Spectral Energy Crystal is insignificant.
"Alright, let's go back, the swarm will come and collect these crystals." The insect queen nodded, her main purpose this time was to understand the basic information of this planet, and then decide the evolution direction of the insect swarm.
The insect swarm is much more complicated than Qin Hao imagined, they are not static, on the Alpha Star, the main insect swarm there is a giant beetle, but when she arrives at the Home Star, what kind of insect swarm will develop after the insect queen depends on her wishes.
After the insect queen returned to the heart of the hive with Qin Hao, she entered another chamber of the heart of the hive, while Qin Hao stayed behind to take care of Han Yihang.
After drinking the blood of the heart of the hive, Han Yihang's complexion was much better at this time, but his body was still very weak, and it was estimated that he would have to recuperate for a while.
Soon after the worm queen entered the chamber of the hive heart, Qin Hao felt that the hive heart began to squirm.
"It's amazing, is the swarm about to start to be reborn?" Qin Hao muttered to himself.
After about half an hour, the queen walked out of the chamber.
"Master, what is that chamber you just entered?" Qin Hao asked curiously.
"That's the evolutionary cavity, it's used to modify the genes of the swarm." There was a hint of exhaustion on the queen's face, and it was obvious that she had worked quite hard in the first half hour.
"Genetically modified ......" Qin Hao nodded secretly, humans are also studying genetic things, but it is obvious that their research on genes is completely incomparable to the knowledge mastered by the insect queen.
Humans can now create some enhanced human warriors at most, and the failure rate is extremely high, but what about the swarm? They can already choose the evolutionary direction of the swarm according to their own needs.
After a few hours, a large number of worker bees came out of the hatching chamber, and they quickly crawled out of the hive heart, and then began to build more hives and hatchery chambers near the hive heart.
Because the Hive Heart destroyed all the large life in a radius of thousands of miles in the process of falling, even the worker bees with weak combat power can safely leave the Hive Heart at this time without fear of being attacked.
Soon, a large number of secondary nests and hatching chambers were established around the hive heart, and then these hatching chambers began to hatch swarms according to the genes set by the queen.
During the incubation process of the hatching chamber, most of the insects that were hatched were the most ordinary and low-level warriors, except that they were no longer in the form of giant beetles at this time, but a more agile, more violent, and somewhat vicious dog-like bugs.
In addition to these low-level warriors who have no intelligence, some leaders and overseers were born in the hatching chamber, and these bugs, which were originally equivalent to copper horns and silver horns, are now no longer horns, so the code names given to them by humans before are no longer applicable.
