Wang Zheng shared his thoughts. He had thought about it a lot. There was a benefit to trying it now. If anything happened, at least he would have an Ability X expert by his side. The freezing ability itself had a calming effect.
After understanding Wang Zheng's thoughts, Old Zhuo was speechless. This brat was simply a lunatic. "You are rushing to your death. You are already in such a dangerous place and you are still doing such dangerous activities."
"It is already so dangerous. I am not afraid of being more dangerous. Moreover, I feel that if I could break through, my strength would increase. This would be helpful for our escape plan. If not, I would still be a burden."
Wang Zheng laughed. Although he understood many details, he still lacked training. It wasn't possible for him to increase his Ability X rapidly. In order to deal damage to the Worms in the abyss, he still had to rely on his Ability X. It was especially so for the second advancement.
If it wasn't for Old Zhuo's organization, Wang Zheng might have started experimenting on the spot. However, he endured it in the end. After all, he had to wait for an opportunity after returning from this exploration.
After 10 days of trekking, Wang Zheng and Old Zhuo finally saw their destination.
They could see it with their naked eyes. In an area not far away, the color had started to become brighter. It wasn't that dark anymore. It gave Wang Zheng the feeling that it was some kind of boundary. Wang Zheng and Old Zhuo parked their mecha at a hidden place. They walked and leaned on the side of the cliff. The world that appeared through the binoculars had rendered Wang Zheng speechless.
It was a low-lying area that looked like a canyon. There were densely packed Worms biting and fighting with each other. The entire area was divided into more than 10 areas. There wasn't any boundary but the Worms were clearly divided. They were only fighting and biting each other in the circle. That crazy look was no different from a real battle.
"Could it be that the Worms are also training?" Wang Zheng swallowed his saliva. Therefore, he knew that the Worms' ability to give birth was their number one productivity. However, this was too wasteful.
"This is their way of evolution. They of the same species will devour each other. The one that survives will become the genetic template. This is how the evolved Worms appear." Old Zhuo said. The wind here had become very cold. The smell of blood was also very heavy. This caused the old wounds on his body to start hurting. "Watch more and carve it deeply in your mind. Wang Zheng, remember. Even if you have to sacrifice everything, you must not let the Worms break through the abyss!"
Wang Zheng's gaze started to wander. There were many Zergs that he had never heard of. He had seen many Zergs in Butcher's laboratory, but he basically could not see them here. This could only mean one thing. The Zergs that humans had captured were just cannon fodder in the Zerg army. Perhaps the main target that the Zergs had chosen was not even humans.
The humans were probably feeling very pleased with themselves.
An Evolution Field was filled with some plump tentacle monsters. If these insects appeared in the eyes of humans, they would definitely be considered intelligent insects with extremely low battle strength, but …
Each of the giant insects' claws were like steel whips. When they smashed into the ground, cracks would appear. They looked round but were actually very agile. Upon closer inspection, they were completely suspended in the air.
Hundreds of worms rolled together and whipped around. It was quite a scene, but with a loud bang, the worms went crazy. Rumble …
Wang Zheng was dumbfounded. What the f * ck was this???
These tentacle monsters spat out something similar to laser cannons from their mouths. In an instant, countless energy cannons bombarded the surroundings, and even the insects that were fighting in the surroundings were wiped out.
This wasn't the energy cannons of humans, but it was undoubtedly a type of energy. Moreover, it had an extremely strong corrosive ability. The rocks that were swept by the energy cannons were all melted and emitted green smoke.
After a round of rampage, there were actually dozens of tentacle monsters still alive. However, these tentacle monsters were glowing in a blood red colour.
"These guys are about to advance." said Old Zhuo. Regarding such a situation, Old Zhuo wasn't like Wang Zheng who had not seen the "world".
"Advance to the third transformation?"
"Second transformation."
Wang Zheng was stunned. This was actually just a first transformation?
"There are too many types of Zergs. Even the same first transformation ability would be very different. Of course, the stronger the first transformation ability, the scarier it would be after advancing. Although we don't know what method they used, it should be a type of energy absorption. This belongs to the field of biological engineering that we have yet to touch upon." Old Zhuo was also an expert, and so was Wang Zheng. Although biological engineering wasn't his forte, but after hearing so much from Butcher, he still had a worldview.
After a round of rampage, the living tentacle monsters suddenly quietened down. As for the remaining worms in the other fields, they fled in all directions.
Just when they thought that these worms were preparing to kill again, there was an earth-shattering loud sound from afar.
Wang Zheng and Old Zhuo felt a tremor at their location. Wang Zheng's pupils constricted. In the distance … there seemed to be something …
With just a thought, the ground suddenly exploded. An unknown thing drilled out from the ground. All the tentacle monsters were shaken up instantly. The energy cannons of the tentacle monsters seemed to have blasted towards this monster at the same time.
However, this energy column that had always been successful was sucked in by the monster. After which, these tentacle monsters were eaten by the huge worms behind them.
After which, the monster drilled back into the hole and disappeared without a trace.
"This thing … what transformation is it …"
"Second transformation … I guess." Old Zhuo wasn't too sure. He had never seen this type of worm before.
It had a lightning fast tunneling speed and had an extremely strong resistance against energy absorption. However, its attacking methods were still considered to be limited.
Wang Zheng's thoughts were the same as Old Zhuo's. They definitely couldn't let such a monster out.
After the monster disappeared, densely packed worms swarmed out again. They continued this cruel evolution that only worms could do.
Even though Wang Zheng's mind was tempered like steel, he still felt chills down his spine.
Both of them sat on the ground and took deep breaths to calm themselves down. "Let's go back."
Said Old Zhuo. The reason why he brought Wang Zheng so far was to let him see the real hinterland of the worms. However, this was definitely just the tip of the iceberg.
"Aren't we going to take a deeper look?" asked Wang Zheng.
Old Zhuo pointed to the front. "If we go any further, we will be out of the rubbish dump."
Without saying much, Wang Zheng also understood. The feelings of the worms towards the rubbish dump were similar to the feelings of humans towards the rubbish dump. Once they were out of the country, the worms would be able to wipe them out in minutes with just the two of them.
This scene had given Wang Zheng a huge shock. However, it had also prompted Wang Zheng to make the decision to try and create his own Cultivation Technique!
He wanted to create his own Eight Point Cultivation Technique to train his Ability X!
This foundation originated from his breathing technique and Primordial Regression Technique. He was already standing on the shoulders of giants. Cultivation Techniques were also created by humans. If others could do it, why couldn't he? Even if he couldn't, he should have the courage to try.
To go against such worms, it was hopeless to just rely on physical techniques. He must have sufficient Ability X to cause damage to them.
On the way back, the two of them didn't interact much and it wasn't as lively. It was obvious that they were still under a lot of pressure after seeing the situation of the worms. It was fine if they didn't understand. However, once they knew and knew the habits of the worms, the Abyss was really not a good place to be.
Humans were still busy exploring and obtaining the technology and resources provided by the Abyss. However, this was also giving opportunities to the worms. The Void Devouring Worm and the way the worms transported things clearly had their own understanding of space technology. If not, the worms wouldn't be able to expand across the galaxy.
Although humans had established the Milky Way Alliance, there were still many unknown places in the Milky Way Alliance. The true number one race in the universe was probably still the Zerg race.
Thinking back to the time when humans had consecutively won against the worms and controlled the Milky Way Alliance firmly, Wang Zheng was a little doubtful about this result. Why hadn't the follow-up troops of the worms arrived?
They spent close to 20 days going back and forth. However, this also allowed Wang Zheng to have a unique understanding of the situation of the worms. He no longer underestimated the enemy. What he had to do now wasn't just to get out of here alive. He had to bring this precious information out.
Looking at Old Zhuo's determined expression, Wang Zheng suddenly understood what had supported Old Zhuo to live till now. This wasn't just his longing for his family.
Not those who talked about heroism all the time could be called soldiers.
Perhaps it was because Old Zhuo hadn't been to that place for a period of time. After returning to their residence, Old Zhuo started to organize again. Their escape plan also had to be reformulated. This was because once they launched an attack, there was a high possibility that such variables would appear. If one of them appeared, it would be more than enough for the two of them to handle.
Wang Zheng started to understand his own spiritual world. This was the first time he was examining the Primordial Regression Technique so seriously. The truth was that the Primordial Regression Technique itself would also have a certain effect on one's spirit. It was just that it was more focused on refining one's body. What he needed was to understand which part would especially affect his Ability X and then strengthen this part.
Although Wang Zheng was bold, he wasn't stupid. He knew that if he pulled one part, it would affect the whole situation. He had to be more cautious. Old Zhuo didn't stop him. Based on this situation, the stronger Wang Zheng was, the better it would be. It was especially so for the Zerg's ability to travel a thousand miles in an instant. This was too scary.
That burrowing monster seemed to have come from a very, very far place. However, it appeared in an instant.
In addition to the Zerg's understanding of space and invisibility, what couldn't be seen didn't mean that it didn't exist.
In the following days, Old Zhuo was responsible for observing the environment. Wang Zheng, on the other hand, started to strengthen his Ability X. Occasionally, he would spar with Old Zhuo. However, this wasn't comparing who was stronger or weaker. Wang Zheng, together with his physical techniques, would be able to fight against any opponent. However, victory or defeat didn't matter at all. The main point was how Wang Zheng could strengthen his Ability X and become stronger.
Deep in a hopeless situation, Wang Zheng also calmed himself down. The matters outside had nothing to do with him. If he couldn't get out, everything would be in vain. On the contrary, he had entered a focused world that he hadn't entered for a long time. This was also due to the contribution of the Zerg. What he saw had given him a huge impact. This was the strongest motivation. When Wang Zheng was sleeping, it wasn't the first time he had dreamt of those monsters. With that kind of strength, how could he avoid it?
The Golden Wheel Battle King definitely couldn't do it. He was too naive. Even if he had sufficient Ability X, the multi-angle mobility of the Golden Wheel Battle King wasn't enough!
