Chapter 6 Brood
"Ha ha!"
Looking at the introduction of [Worker Bee], Xia Jieren couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Great! Now the Zerg's development speed will be greatly improved."
After saying that, Xia Jieren couldn't wait to hatch a worker bee to take a look.
He did it as soon as he thought of it. He went to an open place and squatted down. He immediately spent 100 energy points and ordered in his mind to hatch a worker bee.
It is almost the same as the process of hatching Zergmen.
A moment later, a meat ball that was more than twice as big as the insect man appeared in Xia Jieren's sight.
Under Xia Jieren's curious and expectant gaze, the worker bee broke out of its shell.
"Ugh~~"
The next second, his face changed and he couldn't help but dry heave a few times.
It’s just that the appearance of worker bees is too inconsistent with human aesthetics.
Ferocious! Cruel!
Looking at the two-meter-long worker bee in front of him, Xia Jieren was frightened.
Although the worker bee was lying on the ground meekly to express its submission to Xia Jieren, he still didn't dare to look directly at it.
After preparing himself mentally for a while, Xia Jieren suppressed the churning in his stomach and turned his gaze to the worker bees.
Huge claws, sharp fangs, ferocious mouthparts, and constantly beating green blood vessels all over the body.
After just a quick glance, Xia Jieren said he couldn't stand it and quickly turned his head away.
"Ugh~~, as a human, I really can't understand the Zerg's aesthetics."
After calming down a little, Xia Jieren asked, "Kerrigan, you have seen my situation, is there any way to solve it?"
"The Lord can change his aesthetics, or..."
Before Kerrigan could finish, Xia Jieren interrupted, "What! Change your aesthetics? Forget it, I don't want to change my aesthetics."
"Don't ever make such suggestions again!"
"As you command, Master." Kerrigan continued, "The second method is to let me deduce the appearance of the Zerg troops while deducing the Zerg troops, so that they conform to the Master's aesthetics."
"Well! This method is much better."
The next moment, Kerrigan changed the subject: "However, this may consume more energy for deduction."
Xia Jieren waved his hand and said generously: "Energy is nothing, appearance is the most important."
"..."
Kerrigan remained silent and quietly carried out the task of optimizing the troops.
Glancing at the worker bees, Xia Jieren thought of something again and ordered, "By the way, don't forget to optimize the mother nest as well."
"As you command, Master."
After giving the order, Xia Jieren sent the worker bee in front of him to the outskirts of the jungle and waited quietly for the optimization of its Zerg appearance to be completed.
Looking up at the sky and then at the progress in his mind, Xia Jieren muttered, "It looks like we won't be able to finish it today."
The setting sun cast a red glow on the horizon, and the clouds looked as colorful as if they were on fire.
At this time, Xia Jieren was in a very good mood, because the worker bee and mother nest templates were unlocked, and he was also happy about moving to a new home.
Looking at the shelter where he had lived for two or three days, Xia Jieren still felt a little nostalgic, but not much.
After stopping to look for a while, he walked towards the newly built wooden house without looking back.
At this time, the wooden house was brightly lit.
When I got closer, I saw a fire burning in the middle of the wooden house, with crackling sounds coming from time to time.
I walked to the bed and found the mattress made of weeds was soft and very nice.
After sitting down, Xia Jieren saw the insect man waiting at the door in the light of the fire, and suddenly felt a little guilty.
"Ugh!"
Xia Jieren sighed and felt guilty towards these insect people.
Before this, he had also invited these insect people to come into the house to rest, but was rejected. The reason was simple: they needed to protect Xia Jieren.
From Xia Jieren's perspective, the sixteen insect men at the door were tall and mighty, but they were half-naked and looked very pitiful.
Shaking his head and suppressing the guilt that welled up in his heart, Xia Jieren consoled himself: "Wait a little longer. When there are enough worker bees, we can free the insects."
To be honest, Xia Jieren really couldn't treat the insect people as tools like worker bees.
The biggest difference between them is that the insect people are intelligent, while the worker bees can only execute orders mechanically without any intelligence at all.
The intelligence of insect people is not inferior to that of ordinary people, and is even higher than that of ordinary people.
It’s just that they were created by the Zerg, and from the moment they were hatched, they were instilled with the idea of loyalty to the Overlord and the Zerg.
This kind of mental shackles makes them completely obey the orders of the Overmind and high-level Zerg, leaving them no possibility of breaking free.
When on Blue Star, Xia Jieren learned that the Zerg was a race with a strict hierarchy.
The lower class must completely and unconditionally obey all instructions from the upper Zerg.
At first, Xia Jieren thought this system was very cruel.
But now, as a vested interest, Xia Jieren thinks this method is good.
The butt determines the head!
This sentence is not false at all!
After thinking about it for a while, Xia Jieren lay on the bed and checked the information of the mother nest.
My attention was attracted by the worker bees just now and I didn't have time to look.
[Master: Xia Jieren]
【Energy: 41.4】
[Army type template: Worker Bee (100), Bugman (Intelligent, Powerful) (60)]
[Unit: Bug Man (Power Type x15, Intelligence Type x1)]
[Building Template: Hive (u)]
【Building: None】
-----------------
[Building: Mother Nest]
【Energy: u (indicates uncertainty)】
[Function: transform energy, hatch soldiers, evolve soldiers, genetic research]
[Introduction: The mother nest looks like a meat ball with a hard shell. Its size is related to the size of the soldiers it can hatch. It can also be upgraded by consuming energy to enable it to hatch more and larger soldiers. However, in general, in order to improve the hatching efficiency, the mother nest generally only hatches one or several soldiers of similar size. The mother nest can also convert energy. In addition, the mother nest can analyze biological genes to enable the Zerg to evolve. ]
The power of the mother nest is unquestionable.
Xia Jieren was so excited watching this that he wished he could hatch a mother nest right away to take a look.
Give me a nest and I'll give you a sea of insects!
I'm not just saying this for fun.
As the most important unit of the Zerg, the Brood has a wide range of functions.
Of course, for Xia Jieren at this stage, energy conversion and incubation of troops are what he needs most.
Holding on to fantasies about the future, Xia Jieren fell into a deep sleep.
Silent all night.
The chirping of insects in the jungle and the crackling of the fire intertwined to create a somewhat chaotic melody.
The next day.
After Xia Jieren woke up, he immediately asked about the progress of the Zerg optimization.
"The appearance of the Zerg has been optimized."
After rubbing his hands, Xia Jieren could not wait to hatch the mother nest.
Just as he was about to issue an order, Kerrigan interrupted, "Master Overlord, please note that the genes in the current worker bees are not optimized."
"If you need to optimize, please touch the worker bee and wait for a few seconds to complete it."
"Uh......"
