Chapter 718: Troublesome Species
As the elevator began to rise along the track, Wang Yi couldn't help but frown slightly after listening to Enzo's words.
Although he hasn't gone up yet, as the lord of the abyss, Enzo's ability to invade the material world is one of his abilities. It is enough to make a preliminary judgment based on the breath of the abyss.
In fact, even if he went up, the distance would not be shortened much. He could still only make a preliminary judgment. If he wanted an accurate judgment, he had to be sent over there.
However, Wang Yi did not need any precise judgment, as it was not a case that required evidence. It was enough for Enzo to draw this conclusion based on his information and experience.
In fact, Enzo's own knowledge reserves can only be said to be average. It is all because he has lived a long time that Wang Yi already knows a lot of information obtained from him.
Even the 'Zerg' this time was also one of the information Wang Yi had seen in the other world!
If Enzo's description is correct, this 'Abyss Zerg', although named after the Abyss, is not a creature that lives in the Abyss naturally. It is a non-Abyss species that actively absorbs the breath of the Abyss.
The abyss Zerg invaded the other world and brought about a world-destroying disaster, and were eventually expelled by the gods. This was the previous era recorded in the temple scriptures.
Although the information itself cannot be verified, some characteristics and records of the Abyss Zerg have been passed down to avoid encountering them again in the future.
Even when the whereabouts and some deeds of the gods have become blurred, records of the abyss Zerg are still preserved. This shows that this is most likely an oracle issued by the gods themselves, and it also shows how difficult this thing is.
But of course, it's not as exaggerated as the Zerg in some movies, TV shows, and games...
Wang Yi quickly searched through his memories and found out the dusty memories that he thought he would never use.
The Abyss Zerg, an extremely terrifying creature, will even actively borrow the power of the Abyss, but because of their own characteristics, they are not affected by the Abyss.
According to the records of the Divine Court, most of these creatures seem to have no "intelligence".
Even their combat commanders are temporarily hatched 'brain worms'.
Because Wang Yi himself has traced back to the source of life, he clearly knows that the evolution of life does not necessarily have to become more and more advanced, nor does it necessarily have to give birth to wisdom!
Locusts and cockroaches are species that have evolved quite successfully.
In theory, the simpler the species structure, the faster it reproduces, and the easier it is to deal with various complex world-destroying disasters.
The Abyss Zerg seemed to be such a species, with all responsibilities clearly defined and developing naturally without stimulation.
Even before being stimulated, the Abyss Zerg will not give birth to a central command such as the 'brain worm', but will continue to reproduce naturally, and when the scale reaches a certain size, they will once again launch 'egg sheaths' into the starry sky.
In essence, although the Abyss Zerg look scary, they are actually "harmless".
Because as long as there is no hostile stimulation that exceeds the threshold, they will develop step by step on their own. Even if other civilizations have already occupied the resources, they will not seize them at will.
But because of this, when the Abyss Zerg communicate with the Abyss with the help of space power, they are often exploited and contaminated by some creatures in the Abyss.
Become the vanguard of the attack and find ways to activate the "war" stress response.
The characteristics of this thing are here. Once it enters the "war" posture, it will turn into the most excellent war machine.
What has been passed down in the temple till now also includes an extremely important means of dealing with the situation.
'The harm of the Abyss Zerg itself is not high. If there is no Abyss Monster behind to stimulate them, they can be allowed to develop. As long as their living space is not squeezed too much, they can coexist peacefully. At the same time, there are some resource worms in the Zerg that can secrete secretions rich in magic factors. There are many kinds. As long as you bring enough sugar to exchange with them, you can collect them peacefully. The sugar given should not be too less than their needs. Before they activate the brain worm, they will accept the exchange of disadvantages. Their tolerance is not low...'
In other words, as long as this kind of thing is not overly stimulating, it can even become a beneficial resource.
However, there are some key points that are clearly emphasized in the description.
'Once the Abyss Zerg activates the war mode, don't be lucky. You must wipe them out with lightning speed in the early stage. Many species want to enslave the Zerg, but eventually become part . This is a terrible race that can plunder the excellent genes of other species. A civilization that once gave birth to gods was destroyed in their hands.'
At first, Wang Yi just read it as some unofficial history to enrich his own material library.
But I never thought that I had never seen Zerg in the other world, but I encountered the "egg sheath" of the abyss Zerg on Earth!
Moreover, it is the most troublesome example after being exploited by the creatures of the abyss.
If we suddenly plunge into Mars now, I'm afraid it has already triggered a "war" stress response.
It is most likely done by the abyss creatures sealed together in the egg sheath.
"How much do you know about the Abyssal Zerg?"
Wang Yi asked Enzo.
"A perfect race, loved by many lords, but many lords were eaten by the Zerg. Whether it was the Abyss Lord or the powerful magician, they had all thought about enslaving the Zerg and using them to do things, but according to some current rumors, most of them did not end well..."
Wang Yi didn't feel surprised when he heard Enzo's words.
From some fragments of information in the temple records, it can be clearly seen that this species almost has "use me" written on its face.
In non-war periods, there will be almost no intelligent brain worms in the entire tribe. They can also secrete secretions rich in magic factors and are willing to accept all kinds of losses and exploitation. As long as it is not excessive, they will be obedient.
When such an "obedient" and "well-behaved" race is here, it is almost natural that ambitious people would want to strengthen and exploit it.
Apart from anything else, as a mage, Wang Yi wanted to conduct in-depth research to see if he could catalyze the creation of completely enslaved queen worms and brain worms.
As a necromancer who started out as a necromancer, it's normal to have such thoughts, right?
The lords of the abyss would definitely like to use this thing as a vanguard, directly launching it along the egg sheath to activate it, and then capturing the position themselves to complete the "opening of the door".
After all, for many lords of the abyss, what they want is destruction, what they want is annihilation, and what they want is wronged souls everywhere.
As for the resources needed by the Zerg, it doesn’t matter.
Destroy a civilization and launch another egg case, then just keep opening the door behind it!
However, the gods worshipped by the temples in the other world warned the Zerg that they had destroyed and devoured the civilizations that possessed gods.
Enzo also said that there were Abyss Lords who played too well and were attacked by the Zerg.
Plus absorbing excellent genes from other races...
In a sense, this race can indeed be called 'perfect'!
With perfect adaptability, they don't even need "wisdom" at ordinary times. Without "wisdom", there will be no internal conflicts, the division of labor is clear, and the entire ethnic group is a whole.
Developing step by step based directly on the knowledge engraved in our genes.
When "wisdom" is needed, the brain worm will be temporarily born, immediately gathering the information recorded in the genes of the entire race .
Not a god, but comparable to a god!
"It seems that I will have to go there in person if necessary..."
A hint of interest appeared in Wang Yi's eyes.
Although a nuclear bomb was brought over this time, it would probably be difficult to achieve the goal of destroying this ethnic group whose survival talents have been maxed out.
Relying on the nutrients and resources contained in the initial egg sheath, they will most likely dig underground when they land, but the destructive power of nuclear bombs on the ground is actually quite limited...
