The mother star secretly transformed itself from us

Chapter 2675 Rao's Style
Third line, Zerg battlefield.

The outer camp's infection index was at its maximum. After being turned against and wiped out in one fell swoop, millions of insectoid followers were wiped out. As a result, their current firepower is like that of America's firefighters sometime in the future. I'll just dabble in, I won't go in.

The entire camp was like a piece of wood hollowed out by termites, riddled with holes, and everywhere there were creatures infected by insectoids running around in chaos. These things hurt far more than insect bites, since they were familiar with the victims and knew exactly where to tickle you. Not to mention that they even retained some intelligence and bloodline abilities.

The mutual poisoning and coverage of skills, thermal weapons, dirty bombs, and silicon-based thermoelectric bombs made the entire battlefield filthy. The complex dust cloud in the air was as sticky and filthy as churned mud, and the flesh, bones, mycelium, and metal components belonging to the Zerg, Li Cang, Du Niu, and Campbell were faintly visible twisting and entangled within it.

Boom~
A shadowy figure, seemingly humanoid, suddenly shot out from the depths of the battlefield's core, blasting the Ripper, whose sheer size left the low-scoring crew in the command room, speechless, through the head. The Ripper's painful howl was accompanied by a pillar of burning wind spiraling upwards.

The colossal Zerg, tens of kilometers long, was worthless, like an open mosquito coil, and was casually tossed aside by Li Cang. Its heavy, sticky texture smashed the mixed-material shell in front of the camp to smithereens.

"Fuck!" the mage exclaimed in exasperation. "What the hell is this thing?"

A cannonball-like jump.

With their flesh and blood, they tore an arc through the chaotic storm of blood and fire. In the command room, buried under the corpses of the Rippers, everyone's mouths twitched and their foreheads were covered in cold sweat. For a moment, they didn't know what to think. Then, there was another loud noise like the collision of glaciers. They watched as the chaotic storm of flesh and blood instantly vanished. Then everything went black and their five senses left their bodies.

Li Cang stared at the subordinate who had been infected and turned by the insectoid transformation, and who was stuck together with the others. It had three heads, two arms, and four legs. Its armor and flesh were fused together and covered with several messy layers of chitinous scales. The gaps in the scales dripped with nauseating greenish-blue slime and poisonous smoke.

A series of black, fiery winds tore apart the gathered Zerg. Li Cang gritted his teeth: "Water control? Blood control? Or some strange, specific tissue fluid?"

The three-in-one creature merely let out a meaningless roar, stretched out its hand, and made a grasping motion towards Li Cang—

"puff!"

His limbs were torn apart, and blood gushed out like needles, shooting dozens of meters away before turning back along a thin, spider-like trail, finely slicing Li Cang into minced meat.

"You son of a bitch! You're completely turning things upside down!" To be honest, a bloody skeleton spewing profanities is actually quite charming. Enraged, the mage deliberately added insult to injury, taking advantage of the trajectory of the last remaining black fragment in the other's body: "You think you're so tough? Then give it to me!"

The power of the three phases erected a jagged rainbow bridge between the two sides. In an instant, the opponent's bones, flesh, and tendons went out of control and started an explosive proliferation mode. The rustling bones were the first to break through the shackles of flesh and energy and burst out of the body.

The three closely connected humanoid figures instantly detached themselves, transforming in less than ten seconds into three grotesque, coral-like structures, each hundreds of meters in diameter. Flesh and blood tendrils writhed and twitched like worms among the pale bones, as if boiling. Then, they suddenly exploded into a mass of gooey. After that, the pitch-black crystalline clusters expanded a second time, completely covering the coral structure, collapsing inward, and twisting into a dried-up, decaying, cancerous, and distorted mass of tissue.

"Eating is fine, but this is really disgusting!" Old Wang complained incessantly, "Ugh! Ptooey! What filthy stuff!"

"Get lost, you're showing off!"

"I wish!" Dozens of insectoid subordinates, sandwiched among insects that were dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of meters long and thick, finally managed to evade Old Wang's sweeping attack thanks to the successive attacks of their companions. Like dozens of railgun shells, they knocked Old Wang to the ground, their various skills tangled together, the sound of their limbs colliding as heavy as muffled thunder, dragging Old Wang and carving out a straight and deep trench.

"Tsk!" Li Leisi's figure suddenly appeared in the path of that lump of stuff, spitting into her hand in a pretentious pose, and brandishing her knife: "You still need me to save the day, don't you? Open it for me!"

Words become law, and everything can be divided into two.

Then this collapse became unstoppable. Two straight trajectories, like a meteor shower, washed over the strata, tearing the fan-shaped surface, which stretched for tens of kilometers, into flakes as if it were torn from paper.

"Fuck you!" Old Wang screamed in his usual beautiful voice: "Why the hell didn't you just chop me up with you?"

Li Lei frowned and said, "Why are these things just as gritty as that guy surnamed Wang's?"

"I never make things worse!" Old Wang clutched his stomach with one hand and stuffed his intestines back in with the other. Looking at the gaping wound across his entire belly, a gash that showed no signs of healing, he resignedly raised his hammer and slapped his pain mask twice: "Sorry. I'm tough on flesh, so I'll cut it thin!"

"These two attacks are three parts as impressive as Brother Ping's!" The Great Magic Wand, following Li Cang's instructions, moved back and forth between the black body and the burning wind, crushing both the insectoids and the insectoid humans with a single stroke, creating a bloody hurricane around them, yet within its eye, a scene of peace and tranquility: "If they can't come up with a way to resist the infection over there, I'm afraid even this last bit of firewood will be lost. Hmm, these insectoid infections are indeed a bit sticky."

The Zerg themselves are basically mass-produced using templates, so even if new types occasionally appear, it doesn't bother Li Cang much. But these subordinates are different; they have too many tricks up their sleeves. Take that thing from earlier, for example. If it hadn't been careless during the previous fight and accidentally left a tiny fragment of its black body inside its flesh, which Li Cang had taken the opportunity to infuse with his power and kill it, it would have been impossible to find its weakness and deal with it properly.

Yes, that's how subordinates are.

Their skills may not be particularly powerful, but their ability to survive is absolutely masterful. In other words, after all these years, who among them hasn't acquired a few items that can save their lives or even revive them? They're also extremely dedicated to compensating for their obvious weaknesses. Furthermore, some of these followers seem to be exhibiting an extremely ruthless and insane style:
The vital point.

If a wish is a bucket, yes, a wish without any weaknesses would be prohibitively expensive. But like a backdoor in a program, if I intentionally pre-install a peculiar weakness as a price, exchanging an extremely cheap wish for an extremely long, long, long, long advantage, how would you deal with it?
To be even bolder, what if I were simply a live valve funnel?
If I can't find the Achilles' heel, then I'm a well-rounded warrior!

Its strength is absolutely off the charts!

What? You've hit my weak spot? Anyway, I didn't plan to leave this world alive. At worst, I'll just die right there and that's it!

"This thing...it feels so familiar..." Li Cang clicked his tongue, then suddenly pinched his brow, his expression one of utter despair: "Damn it...this mom is really something else!"

Li Leisi couldn't help but furrow her brows into a deep frown: "Looks like a ghost!"

Old Wang stared at the two of them, saying, "Although... it seems our mother really doesn't need to hold back any opinions. There's no need to hide anything; her method of advancing in rank through enlightenment is something others truly can't learn."
