Cute insect master, join the chat group!

She witnessed the small figure reaching out and pinching the bodies of the mutated Sarkaz.

According to preliminary judgment, the physical strength of these infected creatures is not weak.

However, because the activity of the toxin-eating body's virus is not too strong, and because it has not been connected to the Zerg network before -

The self-awareness of these creatures has been completely wiped out, leaving only the physical instincts after being infected by the Zerg virus.

The weapons they carried were probably unusable.

Pity.

The combat effectiveness of these cannon fodders should have been stronger.

After all, the swarm virus not only infects the body of a creature, but also assimilates its thoughts, making it fight for the swarm from the bottom of its heart.

Now these zombies can only be regarded as cannon fodder.

Its combat capability is not as good as that of ordinary springtails.

"Why didn't they attack?"

W muttered to himself.

The Sarkaz corpse where she found the knife and gun had bruises and bite marks on it.

There is no doubt that it was done by these mutated Sarkaz.

The Sarkaz girl shone her flashlight into their eyes.

The eyes were just two white circles and there was no sign of consciousness.

Zeg stood right in front of them, unattacked.

even--

These mutated Sarkaz stood motionless, as if they were facing an inspection from their superiors.

"Because they listen to Zeg!"

The Swarm Overlord turned his head and looked at the Sarkaz girl.

Organisms infected by the Zerg virus will themselves be connected to the Zerg network.

But these zombies are of little use even getting in.

Because they can only execute simple commands.

For example, moving in a certain direction and attacking all creatures you see.

More advanced commands are more difficult to execute.

After all, they no longer have brains.

If you want to form combat effectiveness, you have to gather a huge number of these brainless cannon fodders.

However, they can also be broken down back into biomass to power the hive's growth.

This is probably the most effective way to use it now.

"..."

Will these mutated Sarkaz listen to Zeg?

W opened his eyes wide.

"real or fake?"

The Sarkaz girl plucked up her courage and came in front of one of the mutated Sarkaz.

She waved.

The mutated Sarkaz didn't react at all.

"Really? If you don't believe me, Zeg will order you to watch!"

The Swarm Master replied.

"Um...Surround W!"

Then he said this.

"?"

W was stunned.

Then, her body was pushed to the ground.

The mutated Sarkaz surrounded her.

The scene was like a group of Sarkaz men surrounding a delicate Sarkaz girl. It was self-evident what would happen next.

"Gudu."

The Sarkaz girl's expression became subtle.

The combat effectiveness of these mutated Sarkaz must be quite strong, otherwise I wouldn’t have gotten away with it.

Sarkaz who have a gun are not weak beings—

Because this requires killing a Sakota.

And the unfortunate Sarkaz mercenary still died at the hands of these mutated guys.

She didn't think she could survive a real confrontation.

But the problem is-

There is something subtle about their style.

Those soft purple tentacles, those two eyes that were completely white circles, and those limbs that looked like stick figures...

No matter how strange it looks.

It was completely different from the hideous and terrifying appearance I first saw.

W thought he was probably crazy.

But it doesn't matter.

She shook her head.

These creatures do follow Zeg's orders.

Then there's nothing to worry about.

Squeezed out from the mutated Sarkaz.

They remain motionless during this process.

"Zerg wasn't wrong!"

The little swarm master puffed out his chest proudly.

Well, after stepping into the area where the venomous organisms exist, W was infected by the Zerg virus spores that were scattered in the air.

However, her mutation rate was controlled at an extremely slow level, ensuring that the infection would not turn her into a brainless zombie.

The Swarm is always kind and friendly to its friends within the Swarm.

But as for the enemy——

That would be merciless of course.

…………

outside the cave.

"..."

Hedley never thought that his companion would lie.

Even though the little creature looked very cute and adorable, it looked petite and harmless.

Yet Inès says it is dangerous.

"What did you see, Inès?"

Hedley asked while signaling the other Sarkaz mercenaries to retreat.

It's rare to find someone who can make Inès feel dangerous.

"Bloodthirst, killing, destruction..."

Inès's eyes gradually widened.

She seemed to see something deeper——

"..."

The female mercenary closed her eyes.

Just tears of blood flowed from the corners of her eyes.

"Inès!"

Hedley opened his eyes wide.

"Hedley, let's retreat quickly! There is something even scarier and more terrifying behind it!"

Inès warned urgently.

She saw the outline of an indescribable existence.

Just a glance——

I felt like I had suffered a severe head blow.

If she hadn't seen the situation was not good and quickly looked away, she would have become a headless knight now.

The horror of this man-made facility is not limited to the mutations they encountered!

There are even more terrifying monsters hidden inside!

"retreat!"

Hedley agreed with his companion's opinion without hesitation.

Inès's strangeness and warning were obviously enough to prove that the creature they encountered this time was capable of destroying them all.

We’ll talk about the compensation for this business later. The most important thing now is to evacuate this area.

"Gaha?"

The tiny creature tilted its head slightly and looked at them.

Some of these instances have shown hostility.

The tiny springtail opened its mouth slightly.

"What are you going to do?"

Hedley saw that several Sarkaz mercenaries did not follow the order to retreat.

"Hedley, if you bring this creature back, you will definitely make a lot of money."

A Sarkaz mercenary carrying a greatsword said so.

"What that person wants is what comes out of it."

Another Sarkaz said so.

"..."

Hedley looked at them.

"Garson, what promise did you get that made you plan to leave my team?"

The tall Sarkaz man looked at these Sarkaz mercenaries

"The emissary from His Highness claimed that if we could retrieve what we saw inside, he would give us a lot of wealth and allow us to join his army."

The Sarkaz mercenary named Garson replied.

"In Kazdel, a mercenary team like us will eventually have to choose a faction to join, Hedley."

"This is the best opportunity right now."

"If we present this creature to His Highness, we can stop being mercenaries."
