MTL - StarCraft In the Palm of Your Hand-Chapter 729 Zerg means
The Zerg army that captured the target was not idle either. There is a new type of unit in the Zerg, called the Queen, which is a unit with a high status in the hierarchical Zerg, second only to the Master and Cerebral, and can give orders to inspectors and lords. However, their role is more logistical, and their specialty is that they can promote the reproduction of Zerg, extend creep, and heal damage to Zerg buildings.
Although the queen worms also have a certain combat power, but compared to the role of logistics, combat is only their sideline. On the battlefield, they are often under strict protection. Only when all the troops protecting them are wiped out can they get their turn Fight.
The existence of the queen allows the swarm to quickly open up nests and breed more troops, which is a crucial part of Yang Ying's plan.
After eliminating the defenders, the Zerg began to dig holes. The Zerg's new unit, the cockroach, has strong adaptability and sharp tunnel claws, which allows them to dig tunnels and move quickly underground.
Those thousand-meter-deep holes on the Zerg planet were also dug out by cockroaches. (As expected of Xiaoqiang)
The reason for digging holes on the occupied colonial planets. It was to grab time and build a batch of lairs before the large forces of various ethnic groups came back to help.
Although the reproductive power of the Zerg is extremely strong, at least at this stage, they are far behind the coalition forces of all races in terms of numbers. The most important problem at present is how to keep the breeding process as unaffected as possible under the full siege of all races .
It is obviously suitable to build the lair underground. On this basis, the resources obtained by occupying the colonial planets of various races can be supplemented to breed more Zerg armies to support wars. This plan is not complicated, but the Zerg fecundity Under the protection of the Orion Arm, few of the tribes can resist it.
Due to the limited time, these new nests will not be very deep, at most only a few kilometers to tens of kilometers from the surface, but in Yang Ying's view, this is enough.
Not all races are as strong as the Galanians. Apart from other aspects, just looking for a Zerg lair inside a huge planet is a task that is difficult for most races to complete in a short period of time.
To discover the hidden Zerg, this requires high reconnaissance technology. The Zerg's burrowing ability is comparable to the invisibility ability of the human and **** races. The Zerg's biological shell itself can shield most of the scouting waves from scanning.
The depth of the insect nest from several kilometers to tens of kilometers from the ground is not chosen randomly. Yang Ying has been collecting military information of various tribes in the Orion Arm since a long time ago.
Through the intelligence system established by the Telan Mercenary Group, Yang Ying has collected a lot of important information, and he can also get a lot of confidential information from singers. understanding.
in plan. The concealment of the underground lair is directly proportional to the reconnaissance capabilities of each race, which is enough for the Zerg to provide concealment and cover for most of the swarms under the superior strength of the support troops of each race, and support them to conduct guerrilla warfare with the troops of all races.
Yang Ying believes that there is only one way for all races to effectively destroy the Zerg, and that is to blow up the planet and let the Zerg and the planet die together. However, based on his understanding of the various ethnic groups and the scenes he saw in the process of foreseeing the future, Yang Ying is sure that the various ethnic groups will not choose this extreme coping method in most cases.
Of course, the histories and cultures of each race are different, and they don't think in the same way. There are also races that can decisively make the decision to destroy the planet, but they can't influence the decisions of other races.
In fact, the fourth-level existence of the Orion Arm Expeditionary Army and Yang Ying have already started fighting each other. Both sides are constantly predicting the future, and at the same time changing the future according to what they foresee.
This kind of mutual calculation messed up the river of time within the range of Perseus Arms.
A butterfly flapping its wings can cause a tornado thousands of kilometers away, and any fourth-level being who has realized the ability of foresight, even if he only has the idea of changing the future, will add countless variables to the future.
At this time, the river of time is full of whirlpools and hidden reefs. There are still many episodes shrouded in fog, and some things that will happen become erratic, now leaning to one side, now leaning to the other.
Whether one can find important clues from the chaotic river of time and make the most appropriate response is also a place to test the wisdom and strength of a fourth-level being.
After all, Yang Ying's spiritual power is stronger than most of the fourth-level beings on the expeditionary army side, which allows him to see farther in the river of time. Some fourth-level beings on the expeditionary army side cannot see, cannot affected things.
This gave him a head start.
Yang Ying saw that after a period of time, the Zerg could survive on most of the planets and grow exponentially until they surpassed the expeditionary army in terms of overall strength. At that time, even if all the races destroy all the colonies in the entire Perseid Arm, they will not be able to wipe out the Zerg army that has become a climate.
At this time, on many colonial planets that originally belonged to the expeditionary force, all units of the Zerg were busy with the task of building nests.
They use all the materials stored by the various races and divide the work in an orderly manner. Among them, the worker bees are responsible for the transportation, and these industrious farmers move these materials into the dug tunnels and transport them to the newly opened underground nest caves.
In the caverns, vast hatches have been established, in which a large number of queens lay even greater numbers of eggs, which harbor the larvae of the Zerg.
Larvae are like huge silkworms, they have no combat power, as long as they are given a development direction, they will form cocoons and develop into adults in the cocoons.
Egg, larva, cocoon, adult, these are the four stages that a Zerg unit goes through in its development.
As small as worker bees, puppies, and hydralisks, as large as lords, mammoths, and queens, they are all larvae before the developmental route diverges. The larva is omnipotent and can develop into any Zerg unit, and it is also the most basic unit in the Zerg.
The resources stored by various races on the colonial planet are digested and absorbed by the hatchery and converted into nutrients for the development of larvae.
Each nest has a large area opened up as a place to store eggs. Generally, a storage room the size of a football field can store thousands or even tens of thousands of eggs. On the colonial star, there are hundreds of them on average.
Of course, it will take a short period of time to fill these storage rooms. Depending on the external conditions encountered on each colony planet, this period of time will be about ten days to half a month.
In the past, when the Zerg only bred on floating continents, they could expand the total population by about two hundred times each year. This was the reproduction speed under Yang Ying's deliberate suppression. If they were in a nutrient-rich environment, this number could be greatly increased.
Now Yang Ying has canceled the breeding restrictions of the Zerg, and it only takes a day for the Zerg to develop a batch of eggs to the adult stage.
Under such circumstances, a Zerg army will certainly not be satisfied with just taking down one colonial star, they will also build Zerg lairs on more colonial stars, and burn the flames of war to the Expeditionary Army in Perseus Arm. On every colony star.
Therefore, the lair on the first colonial planet has not yet been established. The Zerg army assembled again, the ground troops lined up neatly, and walked into the transport chamber of the lord, while the lord fully loaded with ground troops and the air troops surrounded the brain worms and ascended to the sky until they left the planet's atmosphere and re-entered the super Space, fly like a second target colony star.
They want to capture as many colonial stars as possible before the troops of various races come back for help.
…
This is the fourteenth colony planet named by the Loya Expeditionary Army. Five standard days have passed since the Zerg Rebellion.
In these five days, nearly a thousand colonial planets have been attacked by the Zerg army. Among the more than 50 colonial planets occupied by the Loyas, more than ten have also been attacked~www.novelbuddy.com~ Half of them have fallen, and the other half are still resisting. Colonial star No. 14 is the latter one of the.
Overlooking the main base of the Loyas from the air, one can see the tide-like Zerg army on the periphery of the base rushing towards the base's walls.
This base used to be a heavily guarded military stronghold covering an area of ten square kilometers. The various military facilities in the base were very complete, and its original design requirements were sufficient to handle more than two large-scale attacks.
But now, the outer wall of the base is already mottled, and a gap can be seen within a few steps. The silver-white wall is still covered with purple-red blood stains.
The base's original three-layer shield had been breached two days ago, and since then, the base defenders have had to fight hand to hand with the Zerg army.
The focus of the contention between the two sides was the outer wall. The Zerg sent hundreds of mammoths. The 50-meter-tall mammoths far exceeded the height of the outer wall of the base. Rush inside.
Standing in front of them is the elite mecha squad of the Loya Empire. The Loya people are known as the race with the most fighting talents among the Orion Arm races, and their fighting talents are more reflected in their strong bodies and quick reactions. In terms of nerves and strong athletic ability, their mechs are also inclined to close combat and hand-to-hand combat.
Most of these mechas are covered with hideous thorns on their joints, and they move as fast as the wind. Most of their weapons are lightsabers or other types of melee evocation weapons. Although they also have long-distance weapons, they are not commonly used. In the eyes of the Loyas, the efficiency of long-distance combat is too low. The time it takes to kill one Zerg with a beam gun is enough time for them to kill three with a lightsaber!
