My players are so fierce.

Chapter 1480 1477. Destruction Resolution: The Swarm! Raise your wings and block out the sun's rays

Greenhouse of life, core area.

The scholar was concentrating on adjusting the parameters of an instrument amidst the busyness of a group of automatic machines. The old halfling was so serious that he did not notice the overly active shadows around him approaching him.

He even ignored the sharp warning of his own "Haohoumi" resuscitation program, and continued to adjust the strange parameters in front of him that could not be adjusted properly no matter how hard he tried.

Until the shadow suddenly erupted at a certain moment, the invisible thing turned into a group of flying snakes and wanted to completely devour the scholar, but at the moment when this ominous force approached the scholar, a layer of faint blue light arc suddenly rose from under the scholar's feet, protecting him in it, causing the shadow-devouring snake to crash into it and even smash itself to pieces.

"You should have picked a better time."

The scholar pushed up his engineer glasses and said:

"This is the greenhouse of life, sir. It is the place where the Creator has created all the hard work. All the chaotic forces have difficulty passing through here. So if you intend to joke with me in this way, then I can only say that you have succeeded in making me laugh."

"Ha, how could that be? I was just saying hello to my good subordinate."

A familiar voice appeared in the scattered shadows, and then a human figure was formed in a projection posture. The latter was wearing the robe of a councilor of the Eden District and holding an exquisite ebony cane. He looked gentle and refined.

Especially the small lapel and black and red tie, which make this dignified middle-aged man look like a successful person with a superior status.

However, the unique, mysterious and profound emblem on his forehead betrayed his true identity.

If you look closely, there are at least three Chaos Shadow symbols on the snake emblem, which proves that this "big man" has received the attention and blessings of many Chaos Shadows at the same time. To describe it in academic terms, this is a great demon who "has no share in Chaos", a true demon prince.

The most important thing is that, unlike those chaotic creatures born in the subspace, he comes from the material world and has truly relied on his own hard work to get to this position.

Regardless of good or evil, this result also proves his determination, will and hard work.

"Your Excellency the Chief Monk, it is a pleasure to see that you have returned safely."

The old halfling turned around and said to the leader behind him:

"But please forgive me. I am currently busy restarting the greenhouse, and this work has already reached the final stage. I really don't want to waste time on small talk, so could you please get straight to the point?"

“It’s classic engineer style.”

The chief monk smiled and said:

"My real body is still in the subspace. Because of my ascension to the devil, it is difficult for me to enter and exit the material world as freely as before. After all, such a large scepter of God hanging there is really a bit scary.

I know that Salifu died, and died miserably, like a hero who had gone astray and returned to the right path.”

"Well, then you must not know about the rebellion of Meredin. Your former host formed a strange alliance with the King of All Curses of the Goatmen and tried to win over Lord Sim of the Ring Tower, but failed."

While re-adjusting the parameters, the scholar said:

"Mr. Sim has been frantically hunting down your other hosts in the material world recently. I should have helped provide shelter for those poor people, but as you can see, I am really busy and have no time to take care of those dirty things.

So unfortunately, your host has basically been cleaned up.

But seeing your current attitude, I know that you don't need those hidden Horcruxes anymore.

As for the matter of Salif.
I can only say that everyone has their own aspirations. He eventually returned to his old path, which might be the only path he should take.

Speaking of which, you came to me today to test my loyalty, didn't you? "

The scholar stretched out his voice and said:

"You know, I am as loyal to the organization as anyone else. You don't have to doubt that."

"How could I doubt my best and most capable mechanic?"

Steiner's projection laughed loudly, and he waved his hand generously and said:

"I just noticed your new toy. The Swarm!

I have to say, you always come up with these eye-opening and ruthless works for us, which reminds me of the group of ambitious researchers under my command thousands of years ago. Your exploration of taboos is always so fascinating.

This is what I wanted to discuss with you.

One of my current collaborators admires the potential of the Zerg very much, so he entrusted me to negotiate with Scale Father. He really wants to grant Scale Father the blessing of the Immortal.

But I know that without your permission, even I would not be able to complete the conversation with Scale Father. After all, he is your creation, scholar, and he is your outstanding attempt to perfect life.

So I'm here to ask for visitation rights, and I need to get the word out."

"Collaborator?"

The scholar wondered:
"In this context, shouldn't you use 'master' to describe the great immortal master? The shadow of chaos named 'Shou', as well as Tao and Nie, that is, Your Excellency Original Sin. By this calculation, you now have at least three masters.

Well, to use the words that foreigners use to mock others, you have now become a complete slave of three surnames.

It's a pity, sir.

I really didn't expect that you worked hard for more than a thousand years doing bad things just to run to the Lightless Sea and serve as a dog for the Chaos Shadows.

Tsk tsk, it seems that I overestimated you at the beginning, but this is not a problem. After all, how much real wisdom can I expect from a guy who has his mind full of thoughts about destroying the world? "

"That's a good sarcasm. I must write this down. When Mr. Murphy and I meet in the Heart of the World, I will use it to ridicule the Creator's loyal little dog."

The monk who had ascended to the level of a demon was not angry at being mocked by the scholar. He leaned on his ebony cane and said:

"Release the restraints of Hive Zero. I already know that the Order camp is preparing a counterattack beyond your imagination. With the help of the ability given to me by the Warp Space to predict the future, if their counterattack goes smoothly, then the defeat of your swarm is imminent.

Scalefather cannot be born according to your plan, and Murphy and his servants will not give your creation more time to develop.

I can help.

The blessing of longevity can allow it to break out of the shell before the most critical moment arrives, and if we are both lucky, then we can both get what we want from this matter.

I can use the Zerg to successfully destroy the world, and you can rebuild the Creator's blueprint on the wasteland destroyed by the Zerg - no, rebuild your blueprint.

What a crazy soul in this tiny body, who believes that the Creator is a loser so he plans to complete the planning, design and promotion of the perfect blueprint by himself. Recruiting you is definitely the most correct choice I have made in these more than a thousand years of wandering.

Do I need to give you a few more reasons to hand over your most proud creation to me?"

"No, no need."

The scholar threw a mechanical key over and said:
"Go on your own. It shouldn't be a problem for you to convince it to accept help."

"Oh? So heartless?"

The head monk raised his eyebrows and said:

"You are their creator. You know very well what the consequences will be if they choose to embark on this path. Shouldn't you fight me for your creation? Say something high-sounding or something."

"unnecessary!"

The scholar lost his patience and his tone became impatient. He said:
"So-called 'perfect life' should have the basic instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. If they can't even choose the right path for their own future and only know how to devour and evolve blindly, then it can only prove that they are just extremely failed creations!

I also thought about planning everything for my life, but then I discovered that the future cannot be written into genes, as that would only restrict them.

What's more, once the greenhouse of life is restarted, the swarm will have completed their historical mission.

If the world eventually returns to the Golden Age according to my plan, then it won’t matter whether the Zerg exists or not. They will become the destroyers of the old era, but there will be no place for them in the new era.

That's it.

Go on!

Don't waste the little time I have left."

"Haha, then I wish you good luck, sir." The monk got what he wanted and did not stay any longer. He turned around and left. After walking a few steps, he turned back and said to the scholar:

"That parameter that's bothering you. Why not try 42?"

"what?"

The scholar turned around in surprise and said:

“Why 42?”

"The Creator likes that number for no reason. I've talked to Him and He calls it 'the truth of the universe'. I don't know what the connection is between the truth of the universe and 42, but if I were you, I'd try."

The chief monk waved his hand, and just as he had appeared, he turned into a scattered shadow and disappeared into the busy area. The old halfling turned around and looked at the strange parameter table in front of him that had been stuck for almost ten days. After hesitating for a few minutes, he reached out and rearranged the energy pointer to 42.

A moment later, a quarter of the energy in the core area of ​​the Greenhouse of Life was connected, leaving the scholars stunned.

Blanch!
It’s really 42!

On the other side, there is an area not far from the Greenhouse of Life.

To be precise, in the mantle of the upper layer of the Greenhouse of Life close to the sea of ​​sand, the Chief Monk walked into the hatching room of Insect Nest No. 0.

The ferocious insects flying around didn't notice him at all, because after all, it was just a projection that came here. No matter how sensitive the insect swarm was, it was impossible to capture the dangerous aura carried by this projection.

Steiner, leaning on an ebony cane and without leaving any traces on the fungal blanket, walked all the way to the front of a strange insect egg that was as big as a hill. This thing looked very much like amber, and the horrifying creature sealed inside could be seen from the opaque crystal layer on the surface.

It has not yet truly taken shape and is still in the stage of evolving into a physical entity by devouring the purest biomass, but there are already some sparks of mind and thinking beating in this body.

鳞父
The god and master of the Zerg, the Great Devourer or the Destroyer or the World Eater, all dangerous names can be used for it.

"Well, poor fellow who longed to devour the future, you no longer stand a chance."

Steiner leaned on his ebony cane and looked up at the dark yellow crystal. He said:

“Danger is approaching. I think you have already sensed it. But according to my calculations, you cannot complete your molting before those dangerous godslayers rush into your lair.

You need help, no doubt about it.

The Lord of Longevity uses my hand to call you, Father Scale. The shaped one has not really seen this world and will face death, which is a very terrible end. You can be born as long as you accept this kind hand.

No one responded.

The Scale Father has not yet taken shape as a physical entity, so how can he have any vocal organs to answer?

Its silent spark of thought showed that it had no interest in this suggestion, but Steiner was still not so disappointed. He just spread a cluster of strange light and let it surround the crystal of Scale Father.

He made a gesture of farewell and said:
“It’s always difficult to make decisions when you’re not aware of your situation. This is probably the common bad habit of all intelligent creatures, but sooner or later you will realize that you need help.

Now, I have placed the gift of the Immortal Lord here. Please use it when you need it.

In addition, Murphy, who has become a blood ancestor, is trying to start that damn ship. I advise you not to let him complete that task. Considering the sturdiness of the Scarlet Dawn, if you push Murphy too far, he can easily let the ship smash through the ground and crush your Hive Zero into powder.

Well, I think I just said some information that I shouldn't have said, but it doesn't matter.

Get rid of him.

Go try it!

Go beat him in any way you like."

"Why did the swarm suddenly start to shift?"

On the way to the Zerg Nest No. 0, the players who were carrying out an extermination operation on a marginal Zerg nest suddenly discovered an unexpected situation. Teacher Li jumped from the ground to the desert with a few vertical jumps. He looked up and saw a black mass of flying insects flying in another direction.

Just from what the naked eye can see, there are no less than twenty giant dragon insects in the swarm of flying insects.

It is no exaggeration to say that the noise of this swarm of insects flying across the desert even caused a sandstorm, blocking even the scorching sun.

This terrifying air force is definitely being pushed forward by a matching ground force. In other words, the Zerg swarms in the Gray Desert have been mobilized, and not against the expedition team that has been clearing out the Zerg swarms.

"That direction is not good! It's the Holy Blood Sealed Land! The swarm of insects is heading for Lord Murphy and his men!"

Niu Niu, who was standing beside Teacher Li, shouted:

"Quick! Send a message to the veteran brother and ask the Light Chaser to provide support! Lord Murphy only took away the vampire players. Neither the quantity nor the quality is enough to resist this scale of the Zerg advance."

"The message has been sent."

Teacher Li said in a serious tone:

"The Qing Dynasty veteran is a professional commander. He must know what to do now. Wait! There is news. The veteran asked us to continue cleaning the insect nest and said there is no need to worry about Lord Murphy.

Ok?
A vanguard of Callum men is also heading in that direction?
Well, it should be stable now.

The Celestial Empire's army seems to be moving faster than planned, so the next step is to join them and attack Hive Zero together to completely solve this problem."

On the other side, in the Holy Blood Sealed Land, in the bridge of the Scarlet Dawn, Murphy, sitting in the captain's chair, looked at First Mate Solma and a group of vampire crew members who were making final preparations before takeoff, while other archdukes and players were still touring various places on the starship.

Murphy stretched his neck, leaned back in the captain's chair and said softly:

"You know that I can sense it clearly when you are close to the Blood Ancestor, right?"

"I know. I just want to test the difficulty of assassinating you."

Shani walked out from the shadow of the captain's chair, brushed her long hair on her shoulders, and said:

"Unfortunately, it is impossible for a vampire to assassinate you. This job can only be handed over to assassins of other races."

"What's more regrettable is that as long as they have blood flowing, as long as their vitality is still floating, they can't get close to me. This super perception is really annoying me."

Murphy sighed and said:
"I need some time to adapt to this mode of perception of information explosion. Of course, I will still fulfill my promise. Here, drink it."

He flicked his fingers and handed a can of freshly collected source blood to Xia Ni, saying:
"Drink it and you'll be free."

"Will I really be free? Murphy, tell me the truth."

Shani sighed and asked:

"In the past, we were the Lord and the descendant, but now you have become the Blood Ancestor. All vampires have become your descendants. You can command me and all other vampires without a blood contract. I can't get rid of you, even if I enter eternal silence."

"However, you don't know the Blood Ancestor's weakness."

Murphy shook his head and said:
"If you can't protect yourself, then one day, you will be used as a weapon by others against me. You, Maxime, Adele and Bertie, you have become my Achilles' heel. Of course, if they want to kill me, they have no choice but to do it now.

Once I obtain the last power of the Blood Ancestor, immortality will become a conceptual power."

"Murphy."

"Ok?"

"Well, to be honest, the thing you are worried about may come true.

In my eyes, your image has become very strange. You know, I obviously don't like your type of little milk dog, but an idea suddenly popped up in my mind just now, maybe it’s not a bad idea to give it a try.

Damn!

The blood contract is taking effect, I must drink this can of blood immediately!"

"No, it's not a blood contract issue, Shani. All vampires will have this thought when they see me because you can't resist the charm of the blood ancestor. This is not your problem. I really have to wear a mask when I go out in the future."
