PS: By the way, two things.,One,StarCraft Void Legacy is officially released.,Well,The plot honestly doesn't feel as good as the Heart of the Swarm (the final chapter is okay.,Kerrigan Celestial Form...... Still no spoilers)

Two, preview, according to the plan, there is one more chapter below to enter the second volume, and the first paragraph of the second volume has nothing to do with the first volume except for pig's feet.

==Body==

In the face of several huge stones that were about to crash into E7 in less than two hours, escorted by most of the human fleet, the swarm commander who had been acting like bugs could not be calm.

Fat Worm Jun thinks that his knowledge is not bad, and in the current situation, the human fleet is going to cut off his roots at any cost! Those few things with a diameter of more than two kilometers collided, and the influence range of each one needs to be calculated at least tens of millions of square kilometers, and one is not good for triggering large-scale plate movements, and I am afraid that there will be no more bugs left on the ground.

In this case, he must make a trade-off between continuing to fight with humans or keeping the seed to develop elsewhere.

In a few dozen hours, he will be the one who wins, and with a gap of only a few dozen hours, he will have to give up the entire planet.

It seemed like a difficult choice, but he had already chosen, even in the worst-case scenario, to keep the best-developed space worm mother under his seat, as long as he had it, it wouldn't take long to build an army anywhere. On the contrary, if he fails to fight with humans, he will have to reincarnate again, and God knows where the regulators will throw him, and even if he develops again, he may have to repeat the scene of today when he gives birth to the space worm mother.

After Pan Wen expressed his willingness to negotiate with the main cannon, Fat Worm Jun relented and wrote on the surface of the defense group again with the luminous body in the insect swarm.

"I'll pay the ransom!"

Seeing that there was money to take, Pan Wen finally resisted the idea of exterminating all the insects here, and entrusted the beacon ship to respond.

"Where did you get the money?"

The beacon ship is used for airport guidance or as a propaganda ship, and the two ships of the D21 group are both Careda's, usually responsible for guiding the atmospheric transport ship to and from the orbital port accurately, and at the same time using giant holographic projections and ancient light signals as a means of communication, it seems that there is no obstacle to communication with the insect swarm.

"I don't have money, I have the essence."

Prime......

There are indeed records in the historical archives that some types of insect swarms will actively collect and reserve essence, although the name is strange, it is actually the energy converted by various minerals or biomass, that thing can't be seen or touched, and I haven't heard of a carrier similar to an energy rod, how can it be used for money?

Pan Wen looked at the shareholders in the video conference with inquiring eyes, and everyone shook their heads, saying that they had not heard of it, or did not know how to calculate the essence of money.

But Pan Wen thought about it himself, and felt that he should at least take a look, the swarm commander on the opposite side controlled the resources of the entire E7, even if one ten-thousandth of the mineral quality was converted into energy, it would exceed the annual energy ore output of the current D21 ground development base, since it was taken out as a ransom, at least it would not be too cold.

"Quote!" The beacon ship responded simply as instructed.

"Half of the space swarm will be turned into essence for you, let me take the remaining half."

I don't know what kind of management method the swarm is.,When you make a row of words, it's a rolling subtitle.,The synchronization rate is much higher than when the usual formation changes.。

Through this sentence, it can probably be guessed that the insect will only turn into an essence under the command of the commander, which is different from the result of being killed, so there is no way to destroy the swarm and get a ransom...... This is a bit dark, but the other party is not human, and he still talks about benevolence, righteousness and morality.

Pan Wen thought about it for a while, half of the space insect swarm was left too much for the swarm commander, so many insects, especially there must be about thirty giant insects in it, just find some resources, if you don't get it, you will turn back and threaten the safety of D21, but you can't sell it all in the future for the sake of the present.

Pretending to be in consideration, the beacon ship moved closer to the direction of the swarm under the instructions, and only began to glow after confirming that the largest number of patterns projected by the beacon ship could make the other party "see" more clearly.

"It's too dangerous! You'll be left with up to five of the biggest bugs, so if you don't want to, just hit them! ”

The beacon ship made a slight move, and a lot of time had passed, and there was not much time left for the swarm commander to consider, because as long as the "stone" entered the area that the D21 fleet considered a threat, the operation had to start, but it was not time to wait until the stone hit E7.

"It's too expensive! I'd rather fight you guys with both sides! ”

The D21 fleet did not respond to the swarm's bargaining.

Sure enough, as the "stone" gradually approached, the one who had just said that he would lose both sides immediately changed his tune.

"You vampires! I promised, but I'm going to take all the little bugs with me lest you regret it. ”

It is difficult for the small worm to pose a serious threat to the large fleet, and it is probably still necessary to wrap the big worm and evacuate, so as not to let some people beat the unconverted ones as soon as they see the essence.

"If you don't include new varieties, you can."

An agreement is reached, followed by implementation.

The swarm defense pile gradually shrank, exposing most of the huge bugs and the big war bugs that the swarm had hoarded under guerrilla warfare, and before the contraction stabilized, the sound of people gasping could be heard in the video conference.

Fifty-seven huge insects, most of which have disappeared many days ago, even if they are hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, can easily use radar to judge that they are about twice the size of the first batch of mutations! Through the front-line imager, it can be accurately analyzed that they are already ellipsoids with a maximum length of more than 1,500 meters, and the five that the swarm is about to take away are only afraid of being larger.

The effect of these giant bugs was that the number of Great War Bugs that appeared together was more than they had previously estimated, and the total number was just over six hundred! If it starts, it seems that both sides will really lose, not to mention that there are probably some difficult to pursue war bugs in the pile of bugs as guards, and a negotiated settlement seems to be a good result.

Once the swarm showed what to leave behind, the bugs swarmed the remaining ones and began to move, while the others began to collapse, accompanied by a high-intensity energy response.

Hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, there is no need to worry about them blowing up their own ships, but Pan Wen's fleet still made some movement adjustments, ensuring that the retreating insect swarm is increasing the distance between the two sides at a very low speed, and if there is a problem, it will not hinder his next move.

But the swarm didn't do anything, as the remaining insects collapsed to a certain extent, the remaining parts of them gradually emitted brighter and brighter light, and within a few minutes, there were a bunch of large and small sun-like luminous objects left in place, and their overall brightness illuminated even a small part of the surface of E7 even brighter.

Pan Wen said in the video conference with a black line on his face: "Who knows how to get this thing?" ”

Everyone shook their heads.

"Then finish the bombing of the E7 first, and I will send a reconnaissance ship to study it."

The reconnaissance ship is equipped with almost all types of reconnaissance equipment of humans, and the difference from the big ship is only the power, if it is close enough, the observation of the reconnaissance ship will be more detailed.

Half an hour passed, and when the stones began to smash into the E7 atmosphere one after another, the reconnaissance ship also obtained a lot of data.

The luminaries left behind did not have any biological characteristics, and the energy situation was very stable, which could rule out the possibility of the swarm leaving bombs, and the deal was completed, and Panvin's fleet stopped following up the retreating group of bugs. Otherwise, they are not sun-like luminescent air masses, and in the middle of each luminous body is something that looks like a diamond-shaped crystal column that I don't know if it is an entity, which is not confirmed for the time being due to the influence of high energy.

The things were put aside for the time being, and everyone confirmed the collision of the stone with E7 before going back to the meeting to discuss how to deal with these high-energy light balls.

None of them are technicians, but when they brought in a professional one, they almost did not hesitate to give a plan - to use energy binding.

The energy binder is a part of the fusion reactor, and there is also a simplified version in the car-sized cold fusion battery, which is a magnetic energy binder, and against high-energy bodies, the energy binder without a physical binding force itself is obviously more reliable than other things, and it is really not at ease, at most add a shell to the binding device.

The plan was there quickly, but things weren't something that could be made casually. In the early stage of the D21 capital increase, there are various factories/equipment that can be used to manufacture magnetic energy binders, and related materials are also in reserve, but because the D21 development department has no demand for this thing for the time being, the production line is set up to do this very inefficient, but now only a few can be made to try.

In the middle of the few hours, the fleet did its own thing, the orbital fleet returned to the D21 orbit, and the three shippers transporting stones and the three soldier-class cannon fodder ships received orders to continue pushing stones, but there was no time limit later, so this time an asteroid that could directly solve E7 would be pushed back. After the mission of the three ships is completed, the command will be temporarily handed over to Kareda to take over, and when the Soldier No. 3 ship is towed back to Segeis to complete the repair, the commanders of the four ships will be arranged.

Taking advantage of the incident of the swarm, Kareda allowed Pan Wen to take away the Fat Dun and the second lieutenant in the name of "rotation rest", but of course he will not come back to station, anyway, after the incident of the swarm, everyone will definitely expand their strength more actively, and the lack of two ships will not have much impact, and the major shareholders will know it.

When the first energy restraint device was made, it was immediately sent to the Pan Wen ship, along with a batch of polymer transparent plates and heat-resistant plates.

As soon as the energy binder came up, it immediately restricted the movement range of all particles, and the small essence that was used as an experimental object finally revealed its true body, a crystal with no body but boundaries.
