At around 7 o'clock in the evening, the roars of various beasts came and went in the forest. Compared with the birdsong during the day, the symphony in the forest at night changed to the sound of frogs.
The insect nest emits a green shimmer, the light is not too strong, but it is enough to illuminate the nearby area.
Two mantises ran out from among the trees, the hook blades on their tails sank into the flesh and blood of their prey, dragging the prey forward quickly in the forest.
Boubo Wang, Baja, and Amu are responsible for finding the wild beasts and beating them to half-death. Afterwards, the transportation work is handed over to the mantis armor. Although there is a risk of losing the mantis armor, it is more efficient and worth the risk.
Two mantises dragged two beasts weighing at least four tons. This is already the tenth batch.
Manga used the claw knife in front of his body to decompose the corpse of the beast, took out pieces of fresh meat, and transported it to the vicinity of the insect nest. The five-meter-high insect nest opened a huge gap, and Manjia threw fresh meat into it, and the crack closed.
After the insect nest devours flesh and blood, it can be converted into bioenergy, but the problem now is that the conversion speed of the insect nest is not fast. After all, the height of the insect nest is only five meters now.
The larger the size of the insect nest, the faster it can devour flesh and blood, and increasing the size of the insect nest requires the consumption of biological energy.
Su Xiao glanced at the dozens of beast corpses piled up nearby. This was the result of three hours of hard work by Boubo Wang, Amu, and Baja, but the swallowing speed of the insect nest was too slow.
Su Xiao checked the information of the insect nest.
[Insect nest (to which the spines belong). ¡¿
[Stage: Tier 1 (five ranks in total, this rank is determined according to the power system of this world). ¡¿
[Biological energy reserve: 215/2000 points. ¡¿
It took three hours of continuous devouring to obtain 215 points of bioenergy, which made Su Xiao frown.
"The spine pulls."
"Um."
The sound of spine pulling came from inside the worm nest, and she was lying lazily on the biological tissue at this time, and the feeling of fullness made her drowsy.
Su Xiao issued an order to let Jila expand the size of the insect nest. Under the influence of the power of the devil, Jila's loyalty has exceeded 50 points, so he immediately began to expand the size of the insect nest.
Emerald green light surged inside the nest, the meridians on the surface surged, and the entire nest beat and expanded like a heart.
In just about half an hour, the height of the insect nest was raised from five meters to eight meters, and the stored biological energy was exhausted. However, at this time, the meridians on the insect nest were much denser, and the whole was much stronger.
The four mantis located near the insect nest immediately grabbed the fresh meat with their tail hooks, and threw the fresh meat into the gap on the insect nest.
After the height of the insect nest was increased from five meters to eight meters, the efficiency of transforming bioenergy was at least tripled. After discovering this, Su Xiao gave Jila another order. From now on, all the bioenergy obtained would be used to upgrade the insect nest volume of.
The four mantis were busy, and the number of beast corpses in the nearby open space decreased rapidly. As for the discarded bones, fur, etc., they were all buried by the mantis in the distance. The Zerg looked scary, but they were actually very clean creatures. This is not a cleanliness , but to avoid the growth and infection of bacteria and reduce the risk of evolution.
When there are only two beast corpses left in the open space, the insect nest no longer absorbs bioenergy, but stores the bioenergy obtained.
At this time, the insect nest is ten meters high, the surface is dark green, and shiny hard shells appear in some places. Perhaps after being promoted to a high level, the insect nest can evolve biological armor to protect itself.
Ten meters high is the limit of the insect nest at the first stage. The speed at which it devours flesh and blood has increased by at least ten times. The beasts hunted by Bubuwang and Baja's team can no longer be swallowed by the insect nest. As the size increases, the amount of flesh and blood that can be swallowed in one go is also greatly increased, and the transformation speed is increased by more than ten times.
After some observations, Su Xiao figured out the law. If the worm nest devours ordinary beasts, each ton of flesh and blood can get 10 points of bioenergy. If it weren't for the larger beasts in this world, Su Xiao really couldn't find so much flesh and blood for them. The worm nest devours, but the stronger the devoured beast, the more bioenergy it gets, not all calculated according to tonnage.
It was not until the middle of the night that Boubo Wang and Baja returned, and the beasts in the nearby area had been emptied by them. If they wanted to hunt the beasts again, they had to go to a farther area.
Su Xiao checked the information of the insect nest, and the biological energy stored in the insect nest reached: 670/2000 points.
To successfully pass the initial stage, you must start to consider the issue of explosive troops. Mantis armor is a coolie, and they are needed for carrying prey, handling prey, and maintaining insect nests.
As for the fighting Zerg stinger, Su Xiao doesn't know the ability of this thing for the time being, but one thing is certain, that is, the stinger definitely has the ability to hunt prey, and this is probably the hunter in the early stage of the worm's nest.
Su Xiao ordered the spine to pull,Breed 4 mantis (consume 48 points of bioenergy) and 15 poisonous thorns (consume 600 points of bioenergy).
As soon as Su Xiao gave the order, the 'egg tissue' in the nest began to work. In just a few minutes, the egg tissue successfully cultivated 19 eggs, of which 4 were translucent and 15 were light green.
The mantis in the nest puts 19 eggs into the 'incubation sac', and hatching and spawning begin.
The Zerg's explosive ability is very strong, but it has a fatal weakness, that is, the lifespan of the lower Zerg is relatively short. The lifespan of the Mantis is only 1 month, and the stinger is better, with a lifespan of 3 months.
In Su Xiao's view, this is completely enough. The war mission is only one month long. In any case, the winner can be determined within one month.
Time is precious, so Su Xiao must let the insect nest develop at the fastest speed. If you want to develop rapidly, it is not wise to keep biological energy blindly. More low-level Zerg can hunt and catch more wild animals, and the biological energy can be obtained The speed will also be doubled.
The first-order insect nest did not disappoint Su Xiao, that is, in five minutes, 19 Zerg crawled out of the 'breeding sac', and 4 of the mantis armors shook off the transparent body fluids on their bodies, and then ran outside the insect nest to get busy , Start to complete the mission at birth, this is also the point that the Zerg makes people frightened.
The remaining 15 poisonous stingers are all on standby. The stingers are larger than the mantis armor. They have four armored legs and a huge abdomen, just like a spider with a full body of armor. They have no sharp claws and teeth, and their mouths are round. It is cylindrical, with sharp thorns on its back like a porcupine.
Name: Stinger
HP: 100%
Bioenergy: 5/5
Strength: 47
Dexterity: 56
Physical strength: 41
Intelligence: 10
Charm: The lower Zerg has no charm attribute.
Skill 1, biological poison (passive, lv.15): attack with 30 points of poison damage, 15% lead to paralysis of biological organisms, this poison effect can be superimposed 5 layers, and the paralysis effect will be triggered after 5 layers (except the target immune to this effect) .
Skill 2, Thorn Jet (Active, lv.18): The poisonous thorn can transfer the bone spurs on the back to the cylindrical cavity, and accumulate high pressure in the abdominal cavity, so that the bone spurs can be ejected from the mouth, and can attack 0.5 ~Enemies 150 meters away, with penetration effect
Similar to Su Xiao's conjecture, the stinger is indeed a hunter. Its melee ability is average, but it is good at concealment and search.
Su Xiao divided the 15 stingers into five teams, each team had three, and each team was equipped with a mantis for carrying prey.
Whether it is a stinger or a mantis, they are not perpetual motion machines, and they also need to eat, but because they did not develop too strong digestive organs when they were cultivated, if they directly eat flesh and blood, the energy conversion rate is very low.
However, when they are near the worm nest, the spines can inject bioenergy into them through the worm nest, and 1 point of bioenergy is enough for them to move for a long time. Su Xiao feels that this replenishment method is similar to charging.
The Zerg team set off, and after a short rest, Boubo Wang, Baha, and Amu also went out to look for prey.
With the initial scale of the Zerg small army, the next thing to do is to accumulate bioenergy, so that the spine can be promoted to a higher level
