Chapter 5: The Zerg
In the sky, a huge monster shaped like a bat swept by, and behind the three pairs of meat wings were densely flowing countless snake-like wriggling red streamers, the flat mouth was open, and the invisible infrasound wave was released from its mouth, like a sharp arrow, heading straight for Zhou Ming in front.
When its frequency is close to the target, it will cause terrible resonance, causing the target to deform, displace, and even rupture, so as to achieve the purpose of killing.
Especially when it comes out of the mouth of a fifth-level monster as its killer ability, the energy level of this infrasonic wave is so high that it is a truly destructive-level sonic weapon.
The moment the infrasonic wave swept over Zhou Ming, he spit out a mouthful of blood with "wow", even with the protection of the sword-clothed immortal Gu, the infrasonic wave still penetrated the surface of his body, destroying his internal organs, and causing his body to be destroyed and collapsed.
Fortunately, there were no traces left in the attack of this world, Zhou Ming's treatment methods were immediately stimulated, the internal organs in his body were quickly repaired, and Zhou Ming's speed increased again after a short sudden drop, and he rushed away.
"The penetrating power is so strong, the immortal Gu can't prevent it, it's amazing! The laws of different worlds collide, and there will always be all kinds of unexpected sparks, wonderful, so exciting! ”
Even if he was injured, Zhou Ming still had a smile on his face, and with a backhand sword, the huge bat monster dodged sideways, but the sword light suddenly bent, crossed an arc, and cut off one of the bat monster's meat wings.
Suddenly, the unbalanced bat beast rolled to its side and fell diagonally towards the earth.
On the ground, a monster like a hill that looks like Magnarton, who was beaten to death by Ultraman Jack, is running wildly with its hooves, leaving a deep footprint on the ground with each foot.
Its tail resembles a mace, with many black spikes, and several red spikes of varying lengths, the two longest of which are on its head, like long horns.
Both the spikes on the tail and the spikes on the body can be shot, and while it has a strong penetrating force, it is also very toxic.
Let's try it soon, everyone. 】
Just as the bat beast was temporarily kicked out of the team chasing him by Zhou Ming, the monster that looked like Magnarton flicked its tail, and those black spikes on the mace-like tail shot out, stabbing at Zhou Ming with extremely fast acceleration.
It's a pity that compared to the invisible infrasound, the spikes can be seen, and the speed is too slow, so it is impossible to shoot Zhou Ming.
"Level 5 monsters, the speed can catch up with mine has not yet appeared, and their attacks can not hurt me much, unless I stand in place and resist damage."
Flashing the flying spikes, Zhou Ming didn't even look at the Magnarton monster on the ground, thinking to himself.
"After all, the pioneer civilization designed these behemoths for the purpose of invasion and destruction, they have great damage to the city, and the defense is also very strong, but to deal with a target like me, it is beyond its strength!"
"However, if I want to deal with so many monsters on my own, the consumption is too great, not to mention, this power is a drop in the bucket for the pioneer civilization, and it can be replenished immediately after all the killing, according to what I can see from synaesthesia, the real power of the pioneer clan ......"
"In that case, there is no need to delay. Complete the main god mission first, and then return to the earth from the wormhole, to fight against one civilization, it is natural to use the power of another civilization. ”
In his heart, Zhou Ming's speed increased again, and he had already used the Aurora Immortal Sword Gu, but instead of continuing to rush forward, he turned back and rushed into the group of monsters.
Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect!
For a while, the long river of sword light reappeared, and it erupted in the group of monsters, and the overflowing sword qi cleansed the eight wildernesses, vertical and horizontal like rain, and the killing force was fierce.
The monsters are not Gu masters, they don't aim at defensive means, they can only rely on their own bodies to resist, except for a few monsters with extremely strong defense, the other monsters were pierced by sword light in a blink of an eye, and their huge bodies were cut into thousands of holes, and their vitality passed quickly.
Maintaining this killing move, Zhou Ming's immortal yuan was consumed quickly, but he didn't care, let go of his hands and feet, and killed extremely happily.
Compared with the battle with the Gu Master Gu Immortal, all kinds of offensive and defensive means emerge in an endless stream, the tactical use is laborious, the strange Gu worms, and killing moves are impossible to prevent, the battle at this moment is more like a killing game, you only need to swing the sword, urge the killing moves, and consume the immortal yuan, you can hit tons of damage, and harvest full, the most essential and simple happiness.
When the last monster fell, Zhou Ming shook off the sword light, wrapped up a monster that had been cut off in half and deliberately left his life, put it into his immortal blessed land, turned around and left.
Ahead, under the light of the huge orange-red star, the wormhole that maintains its unfolding state looks extremely secluded.
Zhou Ming opened the immortal portal and threw out the half-dead monster, and with a stroke of the long sword, he cut a gap in the monster's body again. Zhou Ming fell, looked at the monster's "identity verification", and fell into the wormhole.
In front of him, countless bizarre images kept flashing, all out of weightlessness, but under the pull of unknown forces, they kept falling towards the other end of the passage.
Suddenly, the unknown force disappeared, replaced by a strong thrust, and then gravity returned, and the huge pressure squeezed towards Zhou Ming from all directions.
A sword cut through the monster's body, and Zhou Ming flew out of it, the surrounding sea water was long, and under his feet was a fiery trench wormhole.
"It's back!"
Zhou Ming opened the Immortal Aperture Portal again and released Qin Wumeng and the three of them.
As for the captured pioneer, let's let it stay in the blessed land for the time being, this is the bottom of the sea, and it may be crushed into a meatloaf by the huge water pressure when it comes out.
"Boss, that guy can speak human words!" As soon as Luo Song came out of the blessed land, he was impatient to complain to Zhou Ming.
"Just now it tried to control us, and it was able to synaesthesia directly with us! Boss, to be honest, I don't think this hand is like it, it doesn't look like it's ......"
"It's not like artificially modified biotechnology, is it?" Zhou Ming added for him.
"Yes, that's right!" Luo Song nodded again and again: "There is no trace of artificial transformation, and there is no material basis for synaesthesia between it and us!" Unless their biotechnology can break through the physiological limits of the species. ”
"Because it's not just biotechnology, there's another force in it." Zhou Ming smiled: "Ghost energy, spiritual energy, or spiritual power......"
Qin Wumeng next to him was slightly stunned, and immediately shook his head: "It's not spiritual power." ”
Qin Wumeng's enhancement attributes are quite miscellaneous, including spiritual power, and her spiritual chain is also a kind of spiritual link.
In Zhou Ming's Immortal Technique, when the captured pioneer suddenly attacked, tried to synaesthesiate the three of them, and brainwashed them, it was also Qin Wumeng who used the spirit whipping skill for the first time, giving the other two time to react.
Therefore, she can be very sure that the attribute of the power of the pioneer clan is not spiritual power.
"That's some other power, and the important thing is where it comes from." Zhou Ming rubbed his temples, the information he had received from the pioneer clan came to his mind, and two words slowly spat out from his mouth.
“…… Zerg. ”
"Zerg!" The three friends spoke in unison, and their faces were full of surprise.
"Yes, Zerg." Zhou Ming said: "It's the kind you think, eat wherever you go, reproduce wildly, adapt to evolution, and crisscross the interstellar natural disaster zerg." ”
"Ah, is the Pioneer a branch of the Zerg? Is the water in this plot world so deep? Luo Hao scratched his head in disbelief.
"It's not a branch, the Pioneer Race is a new race that evolved under the influence of the Zerg."
Thinking back to the information he had obtained about the origin of the pioneer family, Zhou Ming told it eloquently.
"When the pioneer race was far from evolving into intelligent creatures, they were still just aquatic insects, and there was no real intelligent life on that planet, just like before the appearance of human beings on our earth, according to normal evolution, there will always be a group that slowly evolves, and finally gives birth to wisdom and develops and grows."
"But one day, an alien creature fell from the sky, it was a bug, its size was about 100 meters high, it was a behemoth, hideous and vicious, and its existence itself was a powerful biological weapon. But before it entered the planet's atmosphere, it was already shattered and on the verge of death, and after falling on this planet, it only survived for a few tens of seconds before dying. ”
"After that, its corpse was gradually eaten by nearby creatures, and then the creatures of this area began to evolve violently at a rate 10,000 times faster than natural evolution, fighting the remaining flesh and blood of the alien bugs."
"In the end, in this competition, the ancestors of the pioneers came to the fore, and at this time, the characteristics of the Gestalt civilization, their 'brain networking', had also been revealed early, which made them have a unity and cohesion that other races did not have, relying on this characteristic to achieve the final victory, and after dominating those flesh and blood, they obtained a faster evolutionary speed, ending this evolutionary race."
"When the flesh and blood of that alien bug was consumed, the evolution of the pioneer ancestors slowed down, but they already possessed simple intelligence, language, and even writing, and because of the creatures at the top of the planet's evolution, they began to make great strides towards a more civilized society."
"As for the alien bug that fell from the sky, it was regarded as a primitive god by the ancestors of the pioneer of the initial development of wisdom."
"The most important thing is that they got an unhatched egg in the alien bug's body."
"The egg was so hard that all the creatures that ate the carcass of the worm could destroy it, so it survived in the first place. Later, when the pioneer ancestor gave birth to the 'brain network', the worm egg showed amazing activity, which once affected the 'brain network', which greatly accelerated the evolution of the pioneer ancestor. ”
Later, the pioneer ancestors mastered more and more knowledge through continuous communication with worm eggs, synaesthesia, biotechnology, wormhole technology...... The Harbingers' tech trees are crooked because they didn't develop naturally from the start, but with strong outside intervention. ”
Zhou Ming's narration directly stunned the three of them, and they couldn't imagine that there was such a background story behind this plot world.
"It seems that this background has been completely disconnected from the plot of the movie." Qin Wumeng muttered.
"The original plot itself has little reference significance." Zhou Ming said: "The main god space is not a playground, and I fully believe that the original plot will only die faster." ”
"Good guy, so there really are Zerg in this universe! Isn't it possible that the human side is quiet, in fact, the advanced civilizations in the universe have already fought each other. ”
Luo Song couldn't help complaining, thinking about the horror of the Zerg, he couldn't help but shudder: "Boss, was that insect egg hatched later?" If we fight with the pioneers, will we attract real Zerg in the future? ”
"The Zerg are coming, I'll feed you the bugs first." Zhou Ming glanced at Luo Song with a smile and said, "What the real Zerg looks like, and what is the current situation, I don't know, and the Pioneer Clan doesn't know, after all, the information they get through the eggs is limited." ”
"As for the egg...... Hehe, the pioneers are still not stupid, they don't know what will happen after the eggs hatch, so they choose the safest way, using the biotechnology learned from the eggs, the eggs are inhibited from the development of the eggs, so that it always remains in the state of eggs, so many years have passed, although it has been active, but it has never hatched. ”
"It's okay, at least there won't be any interstellar zergs." Luo Song just breathed a sigh of relief, but Zhou Ming's next sentence made Luo Song's heart rise again.
"The pioneers didn't dare to use it, it was simply a tyrannical thing, and it made such a good research subject silent for so many years. We shouldn't have this kind of cowering mentality, so I decided to snatch it up and let it shine in my hands for the benefit of society! ”
……
PPDC, Shattered Dome Headquarters.
The black general stood in front of the big screen, staring at the faces of different colors and ages on the screen, silent.
"General, I think you should also be clear about the seriousness of this incident, in view of the fact that the means of the code name "Alien" are unknown for the time being, so I can only ask you to rest and stand by for the time being, this is for the future of mankind, I hope you can understand. ”
A person on the screen is a representative of a country.
Although because of the attack of the monster, countries had to unite and gather their strength to form PPDC, it does not mean that this organization is above all countries.
In fact, the PPDC has been hampered from time to time by the order of the so-called parliament, and at one point it was almost dissolved.
For example, they once felt that the damage rate of mecha was too high and the consumption was too high in the fight with monsters, and the manufacturing speed of mecha could not keep up with the increase of monsters, so they passed the plan to build a defense wall around the sea to defend against monsters, and at the same time terminated the mecha project and cut off the financial support given to PPDC.
Then, they were slapped in the face by reality, and the defense wall around the sea that had been built with a lot of manpower and material resources was easily destroyed by a fourth-level monster, and it didn't even hold up for two minutes, almost causing a devastating blow to the city behind it.
If it weren't for the mecha that hadn't been revoked at the time and arrived in time to kill that fourth-level monster, the number of deaths in that city would have reached an astronomical number.
And now, once again, they are meeting to attack the black generals because of the breach of the "Broken Dome".
