Devouring the Starry Sky: Starting from the Zerg’s 100-fold explosion of troops

Chapter 18 Born for war, three major metals!

All Zerg arms are born for war.

Due to the needs of war, the Zerg soldiers bred from the [Zerg Brood] have all evolved strange body structures.

For example, the [males] who are resource collectors and material porters only need to absorb a small part of the energy when collecting resources, and they can continue to work for Yunfeng.

Taking into account the factors of evolution and upgrading, [males] can continue to work for up to 3 months without any energy and resource intake. In the middle, the efficiency of collecting resources may be reduced due to lack of energy.

If this were placed in the human army, it would be unimaginable. If you are not paid or paid, you will be asked to work for three months in vain. I am afraid that when the first month's salary does not arrive as scheduled, the military camp will It's going to blow up.

This is not only true for [Male Insects], but also for other combat types [Swift Insects], [Hydralisks], and [Belting Insects].

They only need to absorb a small amount of energy and resources to maintain a standard level of combat effectiveness. They can even actively degenerate and transform themselves into larval egg forms when materials are tight, energy is scarce, and supplies are insufficient.

In the egg form, the needs of the insect swarm are reduced to almost nothing, but the larvae inside still maintain their vitality. Without being actively destroyed, the larvae in the eggs can survive for many years. Ten thousand years of time.

Yun Feng dares to hatch such a large number of bugs without worrying about logistical problems, just because the [Zerg Mother Nest] has these powerful characteristics. Otherwise, where would Yun Feng find food for these bugs to eat if there were such a large number of bugs? ?

As the territorial area expanded significantly, Yunfeng ordered the [males] to build [Zerg Mother Nests] on the basis of the original core second-level [Zerg Mother Nest] and three auxiliary first-level [Zerg Mother Nests], and reduced the size of the territory. When the [males] are transporting resources, the time it takes to return to the [Zerg Mother Nest] increases the efficiency of resource utilization.

"My [Zerg Brood] is currently at level two. If I want to upgrade it to level three, it's not as simple as level one. It requires not only life crystals, but also high-grade metals. [Vibranium] ], [Blue Gold], [Red Essence Iron Mother], these are all precious metals that are sold for millions in the empire, where can I get them to upgrade them for you?"

Looking at the increasing territorial area on the display screen, Yun Feng is not as happy as he imagined. Territorial expansion and area increase are certainly a happy thing, but now Yun Feng is preparing for the [Zerg Brood]. Worrying about the upgrade of stages.

After spiritual communication with the [Zerg Brood], he learned that in order for the [Zerg Brood] to be upgraded to level three, it not only needs sufficient life energy, but also three metal materials, which are [Vibranium], [Blue Gold] and [Red Essence Iron Mother].

These three metal materials are all high-grade precious metals. [Vibranium] is an A5-grade metal with extremely hard properties. It is mostly used for forging weapons and mechas used by warriors. It sells for about 100 kilogram in the empire. million stars is definitely something a poor family like Yun Feng can afford.

[Blue Gold] is an A7 grade metal. It has completely different properties from [Vibranium]. Its texture is soft, but its toughness is extremely high. It can be used to create telekinetic weapons used by psychic masters. The price in the empire is higher than [Vibranium]. Gold] is even more expensive. One pound of [Blue Gold] can be sold for a sky-high price of 500 million star yuan, and it is also something Yun Feng cannot touch.

As for the [Red Essence Iron Mother] at the back, it is even more precious. Yun Feng has never even heard of it, but he still checked the private intelligence brain distributed by [Santiago War College] to everyone who participated in the planet trial. Later, I learned more information about [Red Essence Iron Mother].

However, because his authority is too low, he only knows that [Red Essence Iron Mother] is an ultra-precious metal that costs 100 million star yuan per gram. It is something that he cannot get his hands on. Other information such as characteristics, uses, acquisition, and origin , transactions, etc. are completely unknown. After reading the relevant information on Zhinao, Yun Feng couldn't help but secretly sighed.

"My dear, one gram of [Red Essence Iron Mother] costs 100 million stars, which is more expensive than the 10 million stars [Zerg Brood Core] that my whole family borrowed with their lives. It's for the rich." The world is truly unimaginable for the poor people at the bottom like us.”

"But fortunately, [Zerg Brood] has upgraded to level three. It only needs 1 gram of [Red Iron Mother]. As for the other two metals, [Vibranium] requires 10 kilograms, and [Blue Gold] requires 5 Kilograms may not sound like much, but if you calculate it, it’s impossible to get it without hundreds of millions of stars.”

"Furthermore, I am in the middle of a planetary trial, and information exchange is completely isolated from the outside world. Even if I really have the money, it is impossible to buy these three metals."

Thinking of his current situation, Yun Feng couldn't help but sigh, but he quickly cheered up.

"The planet [Egeus] is rich in resources and has a low level of development. Maybe these three metals will exist. I hope I can find [Vibranium], [Blue Gold] and [Red Iron Mother] ], so that I can upgrade [Zerg Brood] to level three."

When Yun Feng was troubled by the three major metals, the insect swarm did not stop the pace of expansion. They continued to unswervingly execute Yun Feng's orders, expanding crazily, breeding, seizing land, plundering resources, and expanding their territory.

The dense insect swarms surged towards the surroundings in an overwhelming formation. In front of the sharp fangs of the insect swarms, tall trees fell down one after another, and were dragged back to the nearest [Insect Mother] by the [Male Insects]. Nest], transformed into the required resources and energy.

The crazy expansion of the insect swarm naturally encountered resistance from the local indigenous creatures, who actively or passively attacked and killed the insect swarm. Many [male insects] died in the battle and became food for those indigenous creatures.

But those indigenous creatures did not feel proud for long, as they were hunted down by a combat force composed of [Velvis Insects], [Hydralisks] and [Beling Bugs] that came immediately. One after another, the indigenous creatures died under the [Spirit Insects] Under the sharp claws, he died under the venom spray of [Hydralisk], and he died under the suicide attack of [Baneling].

Their corpses were not wasted at all, and were dragged back to the [Zerg Mother Nest] by the [male insects], where they were converted into the required resources and energy, and became natural vessels for the hatching of individual insects.

And as the number of insects under Yun Feng's command increased, he felt that his strength was constantly increasing, and his spirit continued to increase. With a casual punch, he knocked down a large tree with a diameter of half a meter, which made him He couldn't help but sigh.

"With my current level of strength, I should have warrior-level strength."
