Chapter 19: Prosperity and Decline, Brilliant Ending

The four major insect commanders and the eight major insect generals were stunned.

Although they are all the best of the high-level zergs, in terms of status, they are the top existences under the mother emperor.

I never thought that one day I would be granted such power by the mother emperor.

You must know that the hierarchy in the Zerg is the most stringent.

When the Zerg was first born, there was only one Zerg with high intelligence in the entire group.

The rest are just low-level Zerg cannon fodder who only know instinctive combat and absolute obedience.

Later, the scale of the Zerg continued to expand, and wars became more and more frequent.

In many cases, the queen has to command several or even a dozen wars at the same time, and it is inevitable that there will be a problem of taking care of one at the expense of the other and lacking energy.

In order to better cope with the increasingly frequent and high-intensity war situation,

I had to find a way to breed and cultivate a high-level zerg with super combat ability and high intelligence.

Or act as an assault knife, or as a front-line commander.

While sharing part of the burden of the insect queen itself, it can also better improve the overall combat effectiveness of the race.

But no matter what, the supreme decision-making power of the entire race has always been firmly in the hands of the queen of worms, that is, the current mother queen.

Even if it is the four great insects, the eight great insects will be the best among such high-level zergs.

In the past, only in wartime did they have the ability to independently command some troops in combat and have the qualifications to take charge of their own affairs.

But that was also limited to wartime as well.

Once the war is over, they are automatically stripped of their wartime command.

Even if they still enjoy higher treatment than ordinary zergs in the clan, but without the authorization of the mother emperor, even the most ordinary bug soldiers can't command.

I never thought there would be such a thing.

It's like in a highly centralized, absolute monarchy.

It is inconceivable that the emperor, who has always held a monopoly on power, suddenly ignored the government and gave all the military and political power to his ministers.

The surprise came so suddenly.

But then, the eyes of the four insect commanders and the eight insect generals couldn't help but show ecstasy.

They all knelt on the ground and shouted: "Obey my emperor's holy decree!" ”

Unlike those low-level zergs who are like wild beasts, they only know how to eat, drink and fight.

These high-level zergs possess intelligence that is almost not inferior to that of humans.

And with wisdom, it is impossible to be without selfishness.

It's just that in the past, this kind of selfishness had no room for manifestation under the high-pressure centralized rule of the mother emperor, and could only be pressed by them in the bottom of their hearts.

But now the Mother Empress, who is pressing on top of them, actually wants to hand over the power to retreat?

Although I don't understand why my mother is in retreat.

But without the mother queen, the mountain that has been pressing on his head,

The ambition that had been pressing on the deepest part of their hearts inevitably began to swell!

"Obey my Emperor's Divine Commandment!"

The other zergs didn't think so much, and they all knelt down to obey the order.

Unlike those high-level zergs who hide their selfish intentions, their minds are very simple.

Everything is up to the Mother.

Whatever the mother commands, they can do.

And so the transfer of power was complete.

Under the leadership of the four commanders and eight generals, many Zerg quickly moved their original nests to Xiling Holy Mountain.

He also hollowed out the belly of the mountain and built a magnificent and gorgeous underground palace for the Xiling Mother Emperor, so that the Xiling Mother Emperor could meditate with peace of mind.

According to the idea of the four commanders and eight generals, it is better for the mother queen to stay in retreat and not come out again.

So this retreat had to be arranged properly.

For these thoughts of his subordinates, the Xiling Mother Emperor is not unaware.

However, as I said before, since the addition of the Heaven and Earth Karma Position, all the thoughts of the Xiling Mother Emperor have been on the comprehension of the law and the long-term vision of immortality.

The power of the world has long been out of her eyes.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have handed over power to her subordinates so freely.

The four handsome and eight generals didn't pay attention to that calculation at all.

Taking 10,000 steps back, no matter how good the small abacus of the four handsome and eight generals is, they can't change the fact that they are cultivated by her.

With the Mother Emperor's innate absolute control over the race,

It was decided that these guys would not even dare to have the slightest disobedience to her.

Otherwise, she would immediately perceive it, and a single thought could make them a life-and-death dilemma.

Therefore, unless she hangs up unexpectedly, no matter how happy these guys are to jump and jump high, they will not be able to escape her control.

One day she will succeed in the test, if she wants to return to power.

These guys can only obediently hand over the power back.

If that is the case, what else is she worried about?

It was with this kind of confidence that the Xiling Mother Emperor confidently entered and closed the palace in the hinterland of the mountain, and began to enter the retreat and cultivation.

The affairs of the entire Zerg were entrusted to the four major insect commanders and the eight major insect generals.

It's just that the Xiling Mother Emperor expected one thing wrong.

Indeed, with the strict hierarchy of the Zerg, no matter what tricks the four handsome and eight generals play.

As long as she goes out of the customs and takes over the power, the four commanders and eight generals will have to obediently return the power of the Zerg to her in good condition.

But this has a premise, that is, the Zerg will still exist at that time.

She didn't expect that she had just been in retreat for a long time.

The Zerg, who had just climbed to the pinnacle of glory in her hands, fell into the crisis of extinction.

Things in the world have always been blessed and evil.

With the complete completion of the domination of the mountain and sea realm, the Zerg has indeed reached its peak.

But the end also came.

They soon discover that while they have eliminated all their enemies and are invincible, it seems that they themselves have lost the soil for survival.

Because the wars of the past thousand years have almost exhausted all the resources of the mountain and sea realm.

Originally, many species in the mountain and sea realm were also wiped out in the war.

With the complete collapse of the ecological cycle, the entire mountain and sea realm has completely fallen into a vicious circle of only consumption and no output.

So these zergs soon discovered that they ruled the world.

But there is nothing left in the world but them.

There is simply no ability to feed them anymore.

Initially, these zergs were able to feed on the corpses left behind by the xenomorphs they had destroyed.

But it didn't take long for the corpses of these xenomorphs to be eaten.

They can only turn their gaze to the plants.

However, the growth of plants also has its own natural laws, where can these insects be prevented from gnawing like locusts?

Later, not only animals, but even plants have been gnawed away by these zergs.

The sea turned into stagnant water, and the land into desert.

These zergs are also completely on the verge of extinction.

In the end, driven by extreme hunger, all the Zerg began to go completely berserk, killing and devouring each other.

At first, it was only some of the Zerg who started a riot.

Later, even the four commanders and eight generals who held the power of the Zerg couldn't control the situation.
