Juggernaut: Rise of the Zerg

Chapter 114 Using Insects to Control Insects
The morning wind brought smoke and dust from a distance, and Zero waited in the camp for a fire that might suddenly ignite.

But he was destined to be disappointed.

The strong wind in the forest made the fire roar loudly, and the fire once soared into the sky, quite unstoppable.

But not long after, a downpour fell from the sky, extinguishing all the sparks in the forest.

During the heavy rain, Sass commanded the swarm to break through the last lizardman territory in the rain, completed the clearing of all lizardman settlements in the jungle, and seized a large amount of food.

The new Zerg camp was built on the old site of the Lizardmen's residence, and the fire in the middle of the jungle did not affect them in any way.

But now, Zero's attention to them has decreased a lot, and he pays more attention to every trace of abnormality he is currently in. Even under the torrential rain, he has never let down his vigilance.

Unfortunately, nothing was found until the rain stopped at midnight.

Zero still did not let go of his guard, this time he was determined to find out the reason for the fire out of thin air, otherwise it would be a huge hidden danger sooner or later.

He didn't want to endure this kind of unknown attack, he had to figure out what it was!
Based on his analysis of the lizardman boy, it is very likely that the other party will attack again. This time, he will mobilize the vision of all the Zerg in the entire camp to cover the jungle and strive to grasp every detail.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Zero was always engrossed.

In the past many years, He has seldom compressed his field of vision to a certain area as he does now, and is so engrossed in observing the details.

Zero has shown the utmost respect to him, and it depends on whether the lizard boy is willing to join him.

…………

Sommer woke up from a nap, walked out of the cave where he was temporarily staying, looked at the dark clouds in the sky under the night sky, and did not move for a long time.

He is thinking.

The flames erupted by that kind of bug seem to have their own fuel, and they are not afraid of water.But it was difficult for them to find the right direction to approach the Zerg camp under the heavy rain, and the dense rain would minimize the threat of fire, so he didn't do it in the first half of the night.

Sommer's method is actually very simple. After a long period of observation, he found that this kind of bug is very fond of rocks in the dark environment of underground rivers, so he used this to make a simple stone "box" with A batch of bugs that he called "fire worms" came out.

Before, he should have brought these bugs back to the Zerg camp where his former residence was located, and burned all the disgusting bugs and the tiny mosquitoes.

But on the way, he spotted a Zerg army running at high speed in the jungle from afar.

Following the direction they came from, he successfully found the Zerg base camp where Sass was located. At that time, the third batch of Zerg had just set off.

The tumor-like hatchery stands on the forest flat, surrounded by thousands of bugs, and eggs are constantly hatching from it. Coupled with the main force of the Zerg dispatched from here, Sommer feels that he should be Found the opponent's lair.

Therefore, after finishing the layout where he was before, he changed the first attack target here without hesitation.

Taking advantage of the darkness, he made a simple timing device outside the outermost defense line of the Zerg with the firelighter he brought out. As soon as the time came, the stone box in which the firelighter was placed would be opened, exposing the insects inside.

Others may not be able to grasp the distance of the Zerg's outermost defense line, but for Sommer, it couldn't be easier.

Even in the dark, he can clearly see every mosquito that exists nearby, so he can tell where this invisible line is.

After arranging all this, he left quietly. In order to prevent the firefly from rushing towards him after unsealing, he had to keep a sufficient distance.

Once these bugs are exposed to such an open environment, they will automatically look for the nearest creature, and then ignite themselves!

This time, of course, Sommer had to repeat the old trick.

He expected that this group of ugly bugs would not be aware of this, so he had no scruples.And even if they realized it, so what, the nearby beasts and birds had already been scared away by the Zerg. As long as these bugs were released, they would only go in the direction of the Zerg.

With his ability, as long as he is cautious enough, they can't help him.

Indeed, the main force of the Zerg was completely absent. If Sommer was not found, it would be easy to do this. Afterwards, he would hide in the vast jungle. Unless Zero could fill the entire jungle with explorers, it would be difficult to find him.

But finding him is not zero purpose, although he really wants to find him.

What Zero needs most is undoubtedly to disarm this form of attack that is impossible for the Zerg to guard against. Of course, if it is possible to capture this special lizardman boy, he will also know everything he wants to know.

But it is not easy to do this.Although Sommer had actually caused both Zero and the Zerg some trouble, Zero hadn't seen him since that night.

Whether it is the densely populated explorers in the jungle or the warriors on the outskirts, there is no trace of him at all.

He felt that maybe the other party had noticed something and deliberately concealed his whereabouts.

From the lizardman's memory, he didn't find anything special about this boy at all, nothing more than his amazing archery skills, and he was a unique hunter.

But being able to attack the Zerg in the jungle without leaving any traces of yourself is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.

That's why Zero thought that maybe this young lizard man named Sommer had discovered the existence of the explorers, knew that they were the eyeliner of the Zerg, and deliberately avoided them.

Even so, it's definitely not an easy thing to do.Easier said than done, accurately identifying explorers and the most common mosquitoes in the jungle with almost the same size and appearance, and perfectly avoiding zero's field of vision, this can already be said to be miraculous.

A person's energy is limited, and it is impossible for him to pay attention to every detail around him all the time. With the capacity of the lizard man's brain, it is inevitable that he cannot receive and process such a huge amount of information all the time.

This point, even zero can't do it.Although he does have the vision of all individuals of the Zerg, but by no means he will personally analyze and process everything that happens in the vision of each Zerg. Zero plays more of a storage and recording role in this, unless it is a comparison Eye-catching and noteworthy things, otherwise even He would not be able to discover them in the first place.

Just like this incident, the reason why he wants to focus his field of vision here is to carefully observe and analyze every abnormality. Within this range, he can still do it with his current ability.

…………

The dark clouds that have not dissipated after the rain make the whole forest dark, and the starlight is covered by layers of clouds. In addition to the cover of the forest, under the extremely weak light, the shadow on the top of the jungle in the distance can barely be distinguished. It is definitely not an easy task to move forward in the dark in such an almost completely dark environment.

But even in such an environment, Sommer still walked on the ground, treating the darkness in front of him as nothing.

This is his innate ability, and it is also the source of his confidence that he will not be discovered by the Zerg.

For others, it may be extremely difficult to notice and distinguish insects at all times, but he only needs to glance at them to understand them.

Carrying the stone box containing the fire worms, Sommer headed all the way to the only Zerg camp here.

This time, he brought all the remaining fireflies with him, and his target was undoubtedly Sass!

According to the Zerg's previous reaction in the fire, Sommer had determined that this obese Zerg must be the leader of the entire Zerg.

He thought that as long as he killed it, no matter how many other bugs there were, he would not be afraid, and he would be rewarded for his revenge.

So, he brought all the bugs with him.Different from before, this time he will place fire worms in all directions around the entire zerg camp, trying to drown Sass, who is guarded by layers of worms, in the sea of ​​fire as soon as possible, so as not to let him have any more chance to escape.

On the other side, Zero never gave up his vigilance.

Although there has been no abnormality, he believes in his own judgment. With Sommer's heart and ability, the other party will never stop.

The explorers in the entire camp are expanding outwards under Zero's instructions, but because of the problem of the hatching and growth time of the ant tribe, he can't get more explorers to replenish in a short time, so he can only mobilize and spread them in the jungle as much as possible Explorers elsewhere returned.

Therefore, there is actually an upper limit to the overall field of vision of the camp. If it is further expanded, there will inevitably be zero blind spots in the field of vision. For him, that is a loophole that cannot be ignored.

The cool night wind blows through the forest, and sometimes the water droplets left on the leaves during the day fall and hit the ground, making a sound like rain hitting plantains.

The nearby beasts and birds have long been frightened away by the Zerg, and have even become the food of the Zerg. Only a few insects are still making loud noises, but the Zerg is too lazy to prey on them now.

Zero waited quietly, while continuing to pay attention to everything around him.For ordinary creatures, this actually consumes quite a lot of energy, and it is not easy to concentrate for a long time.But for him, as long as it is something that can be done, there is no such thing as energy.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the swarm was always vigilant about its environment, especially around Sass, which was the top priority.

According to previous experience, this kind of flame appeared almost out of nowhere, so it is likely to directly threaten SARS. Although this time it is the real bait, Zero still has to guard against it.

At night, the jungle insects are buzzing, and tens of thousands of explorers are either flying in the air or staying on the ground. Together with the internal Zerg units, they form a huge net, quietly waiting for the enemy's attack. means.

At dawn, Zero noticed some clues through the explorers.

At first, he just felt a slight dissonance in his field of vision, as if something was wrong.

This immediately aroused Zero's vigilance, and he immediately realized that maybe Sommer had already made a move!
The visions of all the Zerg raced thousands of times in the empty space, and Zero analyzed all the information exposed in his vision at an extremely fast speed.

The wind blows over the moving soil particles, the sound of water droplets falling on the ground, the weeds swaying gently with the wind, and the insects crawling slowly on the ground.

Everything seemed to be fine, but He just keenly felt that something was wrong!
Something that shouldn't have appeared here, but He didn't notice it right away!

The first time this idea appeared, Zero reacted almost immediately.

It is too common, such a scene is really too common.He didn't know how many times he had seen it in the past, so he couldn't react immediately.

What is wrong?It's a bug!
The Zerg has been in the jungle for so long, and he dare not say that he has seen all, at least most of the animals and insects.

But this one in front of him had never been seen before.

It's not that it's so strange for a new species of insect to appear in the jungle. In fact, Ling is far from being able to recognize all creatures in the world.

But at this juncture, especially the faint sense of disharmony in his heart, he was very concerned about it, and he had to carefully verify every trace of unusualness.

The next moment, the explorers near the bugs swarmed up and attacked each other with their weak mouthparts.

I thought maybe I was too cautious, but the next moment, Zero saw an amazing scene.

Under the attack of the explorers, these bugs quickly spread their wings and flew up tremblingly!

The abdomen hidden under the wings is as bright as a ball of flame, and in the dark night sky, it is like a lamp!

Zero understood almost immediately in the next instant that this was the method Sommer used before!

He didn't know what method he used to drive this bug to help it penetrate into the Zerg camp, and finally launched an attack from the core of the camp, letting the fire erupt directly at the very core!
What a skill!
Zero couldn't help admiring, it was really pecking at the eyes of geese all day long, since the Zerg was born, its huge size compared to ordinary insects, it was destined to be impossible to feed on them.

So for these insects, Zero became interested later, subconsciously thinking that they could no longer pose a threat to the Zerg.

And all the way from ants, Ling always believed in his heart that insects should be the field he was most familiar with, but he never thought that one day they would also become weapons for the enemy to attack him.

The Zerg Master led the Zerg Swarm and was attacked by bugs.

What a trick to use insects to control insects, what an irony!

Almost at the same time, Zero discovered that this kind of bug was also moving towards the center of the camp in several other directions.

This turned out to be a siege!
For a moment, Zero really felt that if he hadn't paid so much attention to the abnormalities in the camp, he might not have realized where the attack came from.

For the Zerg, this kind of attack is too confusing. At the beginning, even Zero felt that maybe he was suspicious, because there were only a few small insects, no matter how they looked like It looks like a threat to the Zerg.

But the fact is, if Zero hadn't found out, maybe Sass would really die in the sea of ​​fire tonight!

Although it will not really die, and Zero will not lose the only existing cerebrum of the Zerg, but after hatching again, it is difficult to say whether it is really Sass or another brand new cerebrum .

　Pay off the debt today, and there will be another update tonight.
