In the year 2570, the humans started a stalemate with the Zergs and the Celestials on the three major planets. Due to the ample preparation and hundreds of years of operation, the Zergs were forced into a passive position, and the humans saw the dawn of victory again.
In the middle of the year, Patroclus challenged the Einherjar Lee Zhetao, who was defeated and forced to flee. The Lee family had to move away from the battlefield, and the Lee family, which had been glorious for three hundred years, fell into a deep slump. At the same time, Patroclus came up with a strategy to turn the tide of the war, which was known as "The Fall", and put humans in a passive position.
The humanoid evolution of the Zergs was only a small percentage, and there were two types of Zergs. One was parasitism, and Patroclus himself was the best example. The other type was a completely new type of Zergs. However, the production of this type of Zergs was extremely low, and the probability of the birth of a strong Zerg was also very low. For the Zergs, if the quantity and quality were not high, it would be a degeneration.
Patroclus ruled the parasitic humans, who called themselves the Immortals, and Patroclus called himself the Immortal King.
They were completely evolved from the Zergs themselves, and they were called the Dark Ones. The strongest of them was Moye, who called himself the Dark King.
Apart from ruling over their own kind, they also controlled a large number of prototypes of Zergs, which made them a powerful combo on the ground.
Even after Patroclus had devoured the two Zerg Kings and defeated Li Zhedao, the Dark King was still the supreme ruler of the Zergs. He was the first humanoid Zerg to be born, and he was also the most powerful Zerg in the world.
However, when the Zergs were attacked on the planet, Patroclus came up with a new plan: coexistence!
As a former human, Patroclus knew human nature better than anyone else, and he knew that when humans were desperate, they would fight with all their might.
Therefore, there were three types of Zergs. The first type was forced parasitism, where the host would lose their consciousness and become a puppet of the Zergs. However, like the other Zergs, they would not have any intelligence.
The second type was parasitism, where the host would not be able to resist the parasitism of the Zergs. The host would have the combat ability of a human, and the body of a Zerg, but they would no longer be human, and their way of thinking would be the same as the Zergs.
The third option, which was the one that would cause chaos, was a symbiotic relationship with the Zerg. The Zerg would have complete autonomy, and at the same time, the Zerg would possess the powerful body of the Zerg. The Zerg would only provide the Zerg with energy. Of course, due to the existence of the Zerg, the Zerg would explode if it discovered that the Zerg had betrayed the Zerg.
However, this third method allowed many people who were afraid of death to see hope. Instead of enduring the torment of despair, they might as well become the other party and retain their original consciousness.
These three races were collectively referred to as the Protoss. Through this method, Patroclus expanded his forces and gained the recognition of the Zerg Master Brain, becoming as powerful as the Dark Lord.
As an impure Zerg, he was already above millions of other Zergs.
The heaviest blow to humanity was the betrayal of Einherjar Li Moshan. He became a member of the Symbiotic Insect Race and one of the four Main Gods under Patroclus.
In 2571 AD, Patroclus killed his father, Andreas Doyle, with his own hands. Since then, the Doyle family had completely fallen. At the same time, it became the greatest tragedy in human history. They didn't become the glory of mankind, but in the end, they led mankind to its demise.
If it were not for Patroclus, the humans with Einherjar would have had a great advantage in the war of attrition and would have won in the end. However, Patroclus forced humanity into a desperate situation. Two Einherjars fell, and one Einherjar betrayed humanity.
Patroclus was called the Demon King by the people who were still alive, but Andreas Doyle did not die in vain. Before he died, he used the power of self-destruction to severely injure Patroclus, but unfortunately, it was only a heavy injury. It was said that Patroclus had obtained the method of immortality. After this battle, the name Patroclus had become synonymous with terror, but perhaps because he was recuperating from his injuries, the war with humanity was mainly handled by the four Main Gods.
Patroclus was in charge of the Earth and the Moon, while the Dark Lord Moye was in charge of Mars.
In 2572 AD, the leader of the Sect of Deities, Constantine, attacked Moye with a devastating attack. Constantine was killed by his own power, but the Sect of Deities had saved the Martians once again.
The Earth, the Moon, and Mars had started a long war with the Zergs. As for Andromeda, it had completely fallen into the hands of the Zergs.
However, the humans still found an opportunity. That was, there was a problem in the evolution of the Zergs. It seemed that the original form of the Zergs was not as strong as they had imagined. Due to the pressure, the humans were almost panicking. Anyone who had awakened their Acupores would be able to unleash powerful combat power in the face of a life-threatening crisis.
Apart from METAL combat, the humans' research on secret spells had also developed rapidly during the war, resulting in the birth of mature arcane spells.
Humans had to fight for their own survival, and there was no turning back. As for Wang Tong, he had been completely forgotten.
Five years had passed …
In a small town in the Marunza region of Mars.
"Damn, Lun Duo, are you out of your mind again? We don't have enough resources to save everyone!" Tan Bu complained.
"What do you want me to do? He was dying when I saw him, and I gave him some water. Who would have thought that he would come back to life? Do you want me to leave him to die?"
"Just be careful. Boss will skin you alive if he turns out to be a spy!" Tan Bu said unhappily.
"Come on, don't be jealous. He's just a foreigner, why would our beautiful medic fall in love with him? Also, I've checked his Soul Energy and found that he has zero." Lun Duo patted Tan Bu's shoulder. Tan Bu was not the only medic in the team. She was also a high-ranking arcanist of the Sect of Deities.
"Sigh, I know. But boss is planning to launch an attack on Marunza City, and I don't want to cause unnecessary trouble. He's a human after all."
"Yeah, what if the Zergs find him in the wild? He'll be another enemy in the future."
"I don't think the Zergs will care about him. He has zero Soul Energy, so he's worthless."
"Don't complain. We are humans, not those heartless beasts."
"Come on, let's go have a drink."
Two METAL soldiers walked down the city wall with their swords on their shoulders. It was time for their duty to end, and they would be replaced by other soldiers. On top of the watchtower, there were also people monitoring the surroundings.
In the past five years, the three major planets had suffered the same fate. Mankind's technological civilization was mostly destroyed, and the Skylink function was destroyed by Patroclus. This caused communication problems, and the so-called joint command only existed in name. As for space, it was now under the control of the Zergs, and the three major planets had to fight their own battles.
There were many resistance groups on the three major planets, big and small. The more famous ones were mainly the aristocratic families. On Mars, the Sect of Deities was undoubtedly the leader of the Sect of Deities, Michaux. The medic in this resistance group was from the Sect of Deities, and the fiercest ones were the troops from the House of Lie. They still controlled several major cities and dared to fight the Zergs head-on. This was mainly because the head of the House of Lie, Lie Jingtian, was still alive. At the same time, Lie Jian had also become an Einherjar. The previous leader of the Sect of Deities, Huo Jin Tian, had used his life to severely injure the King of Darkness.
Other than the first wave, there were resistance groups all over Mars, and the slightly larger resistance groups would receive support from the Sage Sect. At the very least, they would send a few Arcanists. At the same time, this was also spiritual support. Without the Sage Sect, there would be no Mars.
Maersa used to be a first-tier city on Mars, but now it had fallen into the hands of Lodar, one of the Three Bug Generals under the King of Darkness. Lodar was known for his brutality. He never used symbiosis with his captives, and he didn't even use parasitism on them. Maybe it was because he was a native Zerg, so he didn't like the idea of parasitizing humans. The King of Darkness was at a disadvantage in the fight against Patroclus.
The current Zerg race was indeed very powerful, the original combination of METAL warriors and armored troops was basically successful, but the current Zerg race was made up of Zerg armored warriors and native Zerg armies. The METAL warriors had a rival, and the METAL warriors that had been parasitized, it was indeed a headache. The most painful thing for the humans was that once they were captured by the Zerg, even if they were still breathing, they would become enemies in the future.
On Earth and the Moon, the situation was slightly better. Due to Patroclus's strategy, the captives still had some choice. Patroclus wanted to build a new race that could coexist with humans. In his words, it would be a perfect new world. On Mars, the Zergs had evolved from the highest level of the Zergs, and humans were still their food. Therefore, the Zergs preferred to suck their spiritual power dry to increase their power. Although the birth of native Zergs was slow, every one of them was very powerful. Their existence was to lead the original Zergs, so the Zergs also had a commanding role in the battle.
If it weren't for the great progress in arcane magic, the situation would have been much worse than it was now.
The Zergs had indeed gained a lot of advantages from their evolution, but they had also lost a lot. For example, they were not as pure as they used to be. While they had absorbed some of the advantages of humans, they had also absorbed some of the disadvantages of humans. The simplest reason was that there was a fight between the King of Gods, Patroclus, and the King of Darkness, Moye, for the position of the supreme commander of the Zergs.
