Chapter 239： Base establishment

Chen Lu quickly identified a suitable place as his main base in the dense forests of the country of Waves. It is a place surrounded by mountains, surrounded by hilly areas, with extremely inconvenient transportation, and there are no valuable natural resources, basically no one will come to this place.

And this time Chen Lu does need a place that is not easily disturbed by the outside world as the origin of the development of the swarm.

Eventually Chen Lu landed beside a calm lake with a winding creek nearby. Some herbivorous animals can be seen nearby, which looks like a peaceful scene of nature.

The Iron Man suit slowly faded from Chen Lu's body, and finally changed back to a jacket and put it on Chen Lu's body. He took out the gem-like Zerg egg from the inside pocket of his jacket and placed it gently on the grass.

"Choose to hatch: worker bee." A simple command was spit out from Chen Lu's mouth, and at the same time it announced that the fierce universe of Zerg was officially born in the Naruto world.

I saw that the worm eggs that were originally only the size of a cobblestone swelled at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the original solid surface quickly became soft. You can feel something squirming in the egg membrane, which really makes people feel creepy a feeling of.

After about a minute or so, the eggs had swelled to half a person's height, and their skin became thinner and thinner. Finally, a crustacean limb like a crab claw tore through the film, and a very strange-looking insect-like creature broke out of the cocoon.

This creature has many characteristics typical of insects, crawling on the ground with six thin feet. On its flanks, there are young wings like fins, which seem to be flightless, but it may be useful when floating in space or water. Two pliers with pliers seem to have little lethality, but with a special shape, they seem to be very convenient for digging and carrying.

The Zerg worker bee, the most basic production unit of the Zerg. They contain a set of genetic codes, which can be deformed and evolved into any kind of large-scale Zerg "buildings". These buildings are actually some living structures (but they cannot be moved). They can only be built on purple blankets and need these organic matter to provide them with energy.

In the absence of a fungus blanket, the spirit of this worker bee is very sluggish, and it feels like life is passing by. However, Chen Lu didn't need it to survive for a long time, as long as it could hatch the first Zerg base.

"Construction: Hatchery."

Following Chen Lu's order, the Zerg worker bee immediately burrowed into the ground, and then spread to a large area of ​​ground around it. Soon this piece of land was covered with a blanket of purple slime-like creatures, like twisted organs or internal organs, infecting the nearby ground and slowly spreading out.

This is the source of life in the Zerg base-the fungus blanket. Since Zerg’s buildings are actually giant organs and organisms, the entire Zerg colony is also a living creature. In order to provide this creature with the nutrients and basic tissues it needs, a kind of biological carpet tissue produced by the Zerg, these things are called mushroom carpets. In other words, where there is no fungus blanket, the Zerg architecture cannot continue to survive.

After the fungus blanket was laid out to a certain extent, the Zerg architecture began to be officially constructed. A giant worm egg like a small mountain bulged from the flat fungus blanket, squirming and swelling quickly. From the outside, you can see that the egg is filled with purple liquid like amniotic fluid, an unknown embryo. It is constantly leaping among the eggs.

This time it took a full hour before the giant eggs stopped swelling. With the sound of the burst of a water balloon, several spikes pierced the egg membrane from the inside and poured the liquid inside. A majestic and hideous large-scale* building stood in front of Chen Lu. This is a tower-like structure similar to the pyramid structure of Egypt. The top of the tower is like a huge abyss with fangs. Five pipes grow from the top of the tower and extend to the bottom of the tower, drawn from the pipe. Three white maggot-like creatures fell on the blanket and crawled slowly.

The Zerg Hatchery, which is the core building for the reproduction of the Swarm, serves as the queen bee in the swarm. The same thing as the three maggots is the larva, the basic unit that records all the genome sequences of the Zerg. The larvae cannot perform any complex movement behavior except for the simplest crawling. They only have the same task among the Zerg-hatching into other Zerg units.

[The hatchery has been established and is drawing basic energy resources...]

As the system improved, the Zerg hatchery, which resembled a giant pyramid, began to twitch, and the big mouth on the spire of the tower was also opened and closed, as if something was being drawn underground. The plants within one kilometer in the surrounding area suddenly withered rapidly, the trees withered and the grasses were hanging down, and the originally verdant mountains suddenly became pitch black, as if the vitality had been sucked away in one breath.

"Ah, it's such a way of playing." Looking at the abnormalities of the surrounding vegetation, Chen Lu immediately realized what this vicious lifeform of the Zerg made a living. Swallowing the vitality of the planet, making the planet that was originally suitable for biological development barren and then migrating to the next planet. It is no wonder that the Zerg race will be treated like a plague by the cosmic races with such a development method.

【Drain to obtain energy crystals: 273, high-energy gas condensate: 0】

It seems that this is the basic resource for the development of Zerg for Chen Lu If the way to obtain the energy crystal is to extract the vitality of this planet, then at least there is no need to worry that the Zerg cannot develop in this world. I just don’t know what the environmental awareness of human beings in this world is. I think no one would be happy to see a large forest disappear in a blink of an eye.

"Continue to hatch the worker bees." Chen Lu instructed the three larvae that had just produced, and saw that the belly of the three giant maggot-like creatures immediately bulged like a balloon, and the color of the body surface also changed rapidly. In less than a second, it turned into three worm eggs filled with liquid, quickly gestating new zerg creatures. After a while, the three worker bees ripped apart their eggs and broke out of the cocoon. Their identical appearance made people doubt whether this was a cloned triplet.

Without waiting for Chen Lu's order, the three worker bees burrowed into the lake next to them automatically, not knowing how to collect resources. What is certain is that what they collect is definitely not something that is so environmentally friendly as solar energy. Looking at the dead fish that are gradually being lifted up on the surface of the lake, you will know what the fate of this big lake is.

"Is this a good thing or a bad thing?" In any case, the first Zerg base in Naruto World was finally successfully established. It's just that, from the perspective of its development, it is somewhat impossible not to become a target of the whole world.
