"Adjutant, the captain's order! Close the defense wall, open the system, and change the intruder's authority to the highest level!" After Patch had a suspicion in his mind, he immediately issued a series of orders. However, in order to prevent any misunderstanding by his subordinates, Patch did not use his voice. Instead of speaking out, he gave the order directly in his mind. "Understood, execute immediately!" Just as the mechanical adjutant finished speaking, Li Ping in the ship insect noticed something strange. Sure enough, the ship insect Sodis came to report immediately: "Master, the other party has given up resistance and fully opened its authority. "Give up the resistance? Fully open the permissions? How interesting!" Li Ping thought about his chin, and his interest and curiosity became stronger, so he ordered: "Boxi Passi, use the mental radar to scan." Face the flagship on the opposite side. " "Yes! Master." After saying this, huge spiritual power began to envelope Patch's flagship. For a moment, the creatures in the flagship seemed to have seen the most terrifying thing, and they felt a sense of fear and oppression in their hearts. However, this feeling soon disappeared, but for the creatures in the flagship, this feeling But it¡¯s hard to forget for a while. Li Ping, who received the feedback, was even more interested because he found a mental fluctuation in the flagship that was very similar to humans on Earth, with more than 99% similarity. With this similarity, and considering environmental factors, we can basically confirm that the guy is from Earth. This surprised Li Ping. Are there people from Earth outside the Earth? Or maybe there are aliens who have kidnapped some people on Earth? But based on what Li Ping knows about the space thieves and mercenaries so far, they will never let go of the opportunity to enslave a planet of humanoid intelligent creatures. Although he could once rule the earth, he really hasn't had much contact with ancient inheritance or secrets. It seems that there are still many things hidden on the earth. "Crusu, we are sending three signals." Li Ping, who was interested, revived the idea of ????making a deal before, so he ordered again. But this time, the little alien who looked at the lights flashing in front of his eyes finally couldn't bear it anymore. He asked weakly: "Thatthatcaptaincaptain" Patch was thinking about the problem. , was very unhappy after being interrupted, frowned and looked at the little alien, his eyes showing the meaning of "you are dead without a good reason". The little boy shrank his slender neck and pointed at the instructions on the console with his stubby fingers. As soon as Patch saw the instruction message, he had a bad feeling in his heart, but he still ordered the mechanical adjutant to start extracting the information. The sound signal was restored after a short period of time. However, Patch was not happy at all when he heard the voice that claimed to be the Zerg, because the fear just now was completely self-inflicted! With communication, everything is easier to handle. Soon, the two parties reached a secret agreement: the Zerg would provide "specimens" to Patch from time to time, and Patch would be responsible for purchasing what the Zerg needed after using the "specimens" to gain profits. Smuggle technology or equipment to the Zerg! After reaching an agreement, the Zerg naturally left a bellworm "specimen" and turned away, while Patch and his mercenary team began to have a carnival in the spaceship! This is the Zerg. Not only did they have close contact with the Zerg, but they also communicated with the Zerg. This indicates that they will soon develop. Although this is a bit sorry for the Lajia clan, in front of the entire mercenary class, even the powerful Lajia has to abide by the rules of mercenaries and deal fairly. Being able to make money is everything. For mercenaries without star system membership or civilization membership, as long as they can bring them benefits, they are brothers, even if they are Zerg. After the carnival, there was another rush, and then they carefully escorted the precious "specimens" and set sail. "The Zerg, under the leadership of Li Ping, turned to another channel. The information received from the mercenaries showed that in a few hours, a transport fleet would appear here, containing not only a large amount of supplies, but also a box of gravity crystals! There is a hyperspace fault here. For safety, the spacecraft must use ordinary navigation to pass through a section of the route here, which gives the Zerg the best opportunity for a sneak attack. Although there are many unmanned outposts and reconnaissance equipment around, without supply depots and without protective measures, the supply fleet is not yet within reach for the current Zerg. Except for a few escorting spacecraft, the other transport spacecraft had no chance to fight back. This was also one of the key factors in Li Ping's decision to take the initiative. Li Ping quietly arranged on an asteroid outside the detector range, and a large number of flying insects were hatched. This has been a consistent routine of the Zerg. Even without Li Ping's command, the top brass of the Zerg can manage the well. ?Article. Soon, the planned 30,000 flying insects were hatched. With the optimization of flying insect genes, the required hatching time has been saved a lot. Unfortunately, the high-energy tissue is not up to standard. A large part of the time for hatching flying insects is to fill it with energy. But even so, the production efficiency of the Zerg is still astonishingly high, and in addition to ordinary organic matter and metal minerals, the resources required only require a small amount of rare elements. If quality is not considered, the Zerg can even hatch flying insects entirely from organic matter. Of course, such flying insects are much weaker. Although he didn't care too much about the life and death of the bugs, Li Ping still asked the Zerg leaders to try to improve the survival rate of the bugs. After all, bugs are cheap, but the experience they accumulate in battle is precious. If one more bug survives now, the Zerg will have one more elite ship bug in the future. Because those bugs that have experienced enough wars to survive can fully develop their wisdom not only through experience, but also through the accumulation of time. After transplantation, with a little training, they can become a well-tested ship bug. This is one of the most precious resources of insects, second only to the importance of silicon crystal. Therefore, the flying insects this time were hatched according to the highest specifications, and they were more than enough to deal with a transport fleet with only a small escort. Calculating that time was almost up, Li Ping ordered the ship insects to lead the flying insects forward, while his mothership followed far behind. Even if he was sure that the mercenaries were not lying, Li Ping would leave a way out for himself. Since under normal circumstances, the spacecraft has no way to communicate with the outside world when sailing in hyperspace, so even if the Zerg transport fleet is still in the hyperspace channel, they don't need to worry about the unmanned sentries and just dismantle them all the way. There are a lot of rare elements in there, so they can't be wasted. Thanks to the high technology of these aliens, their spaceships rarely fail to be on time, so they ran into an ambush net laid out by the Zerg as soon as they jumped out of the hyperspace channel. The first small frigate-like spacecraft that came out was wiped out by the shipworms' concentrated fire. The spaceships behind them didn't know what was happening outside, and they jumped out one after another. The results can be imagined! But after all, there were too many spaceships, and they were jumping out one by one. This caused the transport spacecraft behind to be blocked by the wreckage of the previous one as soon as it appeared, and then was wiped out by more than a dozen energy cannons for no apparent reason. . A sneak attack turned into a game of whack-a-mole, which made Li Ping very boring, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the power of the traitors is really huge, and a transport fleet was wiped out with just a few words. Fortunately, it was completely impossible for the Zerg to betray Li Ping, and he was grateful for his original choice. Except for the last few escorting spaceships, which took a little time, the Zerg suffered almost no losses. But considering that the news had been leaked for quite some time, Li Ping had to hurry up. With one thought, all the flying insects joined the search for gravity crystals. This was the main purpose of Li Ping's sneak attack, including the gravity control equipment in these spacecrafts, and the rest was incidental. However, looking at the debris floating all over the space, Li Ping was a little helpless. The shipworms were too small and too few. Otherwise, all the debris would be transported away. Not only would he save himself the effort to find and exploit resources, but these spaceships would also be armored. They all contain rare elements to a greater or lesser extent, and their quality is outstanding. Soon, a flying insect discovered the sign, and the obvious gravity anomaly was the best sign. Even if it's not a gravity crystal, it must be some kind of device containing element 99. When I came to take a look, what was the green and shiny thing if it wasn¡¯t a gravity crystal? Unfortunately, the box containing the gravity crystals has been damaged, and many gravity crystals have been scattered. Although he really wants to collect them, Li Ping is a person whose reason is stronger than his desire. After decades of lonely space navigation, he has replaced his body with a biological brain, and now his reason has the upper hand. Therefore, no matter how much you cherish the gravity crystal, you still have to let it go when it¡¯s time to let it go. Soon, all the flying insects returned. After collecting the materials they brought back, they accelerated and jumped without looking back. And as soon as Li Ping left, a fleet appeared nearby without any warning. Although this fleet is not large in number, each spaceship is full of naked violent aesthetics, which is completely different from the previous mercenary's spaceship. This can no longer be regarded as a spaceship, but can be regarded as a true battleship level. After using space jump to get here, they found that they were still a step late. Apart from the wreckage in the sky, where was the shadow of the Zerg? After finally waiting for the fleet summoned from the family, Sostol, who thought he had captured him this time, was almost going crazy now. If he faced Keston, it would be normal for him to lose consecutively like this. He could just regain his position later, but being slapped in the face by a lowly insect like this was something he couldn't bear.The more noble your status is, the less you can allow such a thing! On the contrary, if you get to Fisto's place at this time, it will be different. Maybe Li Ping should be lucky that the relationship between the two brothers is not good. Without catching the Zerg, the Sostol fleet could only stop temporarily. No matter how advanced the technology is, some rules in the universe are still iron laws and must be followed. If the Zerg escape in front of them, they can still estimate the range of the Zerg's landing point based on the speed, energy density, etc. when entering hyperspace navigation. However, when the Zerg has entered the hyperspace navigation state, the gods have nothing to do. Thorstor, who has never been so aggrieved, although he has spent a lot of time and energy to train his mental strength, he has not experienced many grievances and does not have a mentality that matches his strength, so he can't control his anger. After getting angry, he finally remembered the current situation, so he reluctantly ordered his men to start rescuing the crew and cleaning up the battlefield. Other fleets that came later also joined the ranks, but similarly, except for a little gloating about the misfortune of the Raja royal family, they were not happy at all. After all, this is a shame for them. In the past, due to various reasons, they could only restrain their hands and feet. Now, they also plan to show their true strength. So, in the universe of mainstream civilization, fleets began to mobilize frequently. Although it is only a small or even micro-fleet directly under the personal control, it is indeed a fully-organized tactical fleet, and its combat power cannot be underestimated. Although Li Ping didn't know these things, his huge and keen mental power told him that his troubles seemed to be getting bigger again. However, Li Ping, who had already figured it out, didn't care too much. Anyway, as time goes by, the aliens will definitely become more and more aware of their own movement patterns, and it will be a matter of time before they collide. The scout mosquito staying in the dark corner of the wreckage had already passed on some information to him. After discovering that these mercenaries actually joined a fleet that jumped across space, Li Ping knew that he had less and less time and space to fight guerrillas. This silent maneuvering method is not only fast, but also leaves no room for warning. Suddenly a fleet appears in front of you, which is not fun. If it weren¡¯t for the fact that, like hyperspace navigation, it couldn¡¯t be used around massive celestial bodies, Li Ping would really have had no choice but to concentrate on running away. Therefore, after repeated discussions with Louise, Li Ping decided to change his tactics. After all, we can't hide here and there like this forever in the future. We will always have to confront them head-on. Now, taking advantage of the opportunity that they haven't turned out in full force and don't know much about themselves, we can have a few head-on battles to gain experience for our Zerg. So Li Ping decided to rush to the galaxy where the gravity crystal veins were located, temporarily stay with him, and engage in a "planet defense battle" with those alien mercenaries. As for the universe, the shipworms are not their opponents yet, so they can only avoid the edge for the time being. Naturally, Li Ping, who is afraid of death, will definitely not stay here. As long as he collects the gravity crystal, he will run away with his fleet, and then leave the ten newly hatched ship bugs as command and bait. However, in order to make those alien mercenaries believe and invest heavily there, Li Ping was also prepared to reluctantly take out some silicon crystals to support this tough battle Soon, under the guidance of the detailed route map, the Zerg fleet came We arrived at our destination, a star system with three rocky planets and one gaseous planet! The flying insects were naturally the first ones to appear. He also carried one or two flying mantises and a large number of scout mosquitoes. Of the three rocky planets here, two have thick atmospheres and one is completely naked. In the atmospheric environment, the detection efficiency of flying mantises and scout mosquitoes is naturally higher than that of flying insects, and their movement is much smaller than that of flying insects. Li Ping doubted whether there were any precautions for aliens in this place. In fact, Li Ping was frightened when he saw the alien's space jumping fleet. With such incredible maneuverability, as long as he triggered any alarm here, they would probably be able to rush to him in the blink of an eye. Therefore, with all caution in mind, Li Ping still chose the method of working slowly and carefully. Mixed in the space debris, the scouts quickly entered this small star system. Due to the need to hide, the flying insect did not use its own power, but slowly drifted forward with inertia. It took more than a week to reach the first rocky planet with a thick atmosphere. There is nothing to be wary of in the orbit of a clean planet. The most likely place to place automatic detection equipment is on the planet itself. Those experienced flying insects and flying mantises disguised themselves as meteorites and successfully arrived on the surface of the planet. Although it is far away from the star, the thick atmosphere is rich in carbon dioxide and methane, so the surface temperature of this planet is not low, at least 40 to 50 degrees. As soon as it entered the atmosphere, Fei Mantis showed its advantages as a planetary unit. I saw it staggeringly inflating its elytra a few times, and then stopped lightly on the ground. Although the flying insect was not very powerful, its thud was not small. As soon as they landed, these scouts began to analyze the atmospheric environment. This was the custom for the Zerg to land on atmospheric planets. In the blink of an eye, relevant information appeared in Li Ping's mind. "Carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, methane, nitrogen, water vapor, huh? There is also oxygen?" Although it is not even one percent, oxygen is not like hydrogen and nitrogen. It is everywhere. The atmosphere contains oxygen, so it is very likely There are fungi. "Louise, is there a reaction of life energy on that planet?" "No, Master." Li Ping thought for a while, anyway, he would have to arm all these planets in the future, and there would be many opportunities for exploration, so he An order was given: "Don't worry about anything else, just eliminate those reconnaissance equipment!" "Obey, Lord." Then, an order was passed to the scouts. The veteran bugs, who had considerable wisdom, naturally knew what to do, so the flying insects began to disperse. Then the flying mantises centered on the flying insects, and the scout mosquitoes spread a dragnet on the planet with the flying insects as the center. Sure enough, just half a day later, the scout found some reconnaissance equipment. This time, the bug would naturally dismantle it without being reckless. After being tricked last time, although Louise did not forget about it, she still took out a queen with resentment and asked it to study ways to control the reconnaissance equipment without triggering the alarm. After Li Ping found out, he also supported Louise. He just thought that more research would be useful in the future. As a result, who knew that the queen's research results would be put to use so quickly, so another batch of flying insects set off with a large number of mature spores disguised as meteorites. A week later, as the flying insects landed, a large number of spores began to hatch, indicating the beginning of a large-scale construction wave of the Zerg in this star system;
