The reward of the [Homeland] mission was a great boon for Fangzheng.
Most importantly, as long as Fangzheng completed the mission, this plane would become a free world like Dark Soul and Cicada's Cry. Once the plane became a free world, it meant that Fangzheng would not have to wait for the cooldown time and could enter and exit this world at will.
Not only that, after completing this mission, Fangzheng's [Heart of the Swarm] skill would no longer be an exclusive skill of the Soul Stone, but would be fixed on Fangzheng. This would save Fangzheng the trouble of switching to Kerrigan every time he controlled the Zerg. Although Kerrigan's Soul Stone was also quite useful, Fangzheng often needed the abilities of other Soul Stones to fight. If Kerrigan was restricted when controlling the Zerg, then the means that Fangzheng could use would also be limited.
Once the [Heart of the Swarm] skill was fixed, Fangzheng could switch Soul Stones when controlling the Zerg — at least he would not have to be so passive.
Just like in the Edge of Tomorrow, after Fangzheng summoned Milune and the others, the first thing he did was to order the Worker Drones to attack the base. After all, they were Zerg, so it was normal for them to occupy a mine. First get the resources, then crazily produce a large number of Zerg, and then launch a wave of Assault.
But dealing with the Predators was naturally not as simple as dealing with the wire monsters in the Edge of Tomorrow. Although the Predators were not strong, they were still a low-level version of the Protoss, and they had a complete air and ground force. To deal with such an enemy, he had to think carefully. First, he had to explore and at least figure out the other party's layout. Then, he had to decide whether to attack the Dragon Hound or F2A.
After some investigation, Fangzheng finally figured out the general situation of this planet.
Just as described in the movies, this planet was a hunting ground or playground for the Predators. Because of this, the security on this planet was not particularly tight. According to the results of the Zerg investigation, the Predators on this planet had only built a main building for them to rest and park their spaceships, as well as some protective facilities. Apart from that, there was nothing else. However, considering the tradition of the Predators that every citizen was a soldier, it didn't really matter whether those security facilities were built or not.
Not only that, according to the Zerg's report, the Predators did not only have Big Nose's playground on this planet. In fact, during their investigation, the Zerg had discovered hundreds of humans. They were all captured by the Predators from Earth and thrown onto this planet. However, the distribution of these humans was also very interesting. Some of them were thrown into the Gobi Desert, some were even sent to a world of ice and snow, and some were even sent to a small island.
Apart from humans, the Predators had also captured a variety of alien creatures. Many of these creatures also had very strange and ingenious abilities … .well, for the Zerg, they were simply the best prey.
It seemed that the Predators honed their skills by fighting these creatures in different environments. Of course, this was a tragedy for humans.
Compared to those who were thrown into the desert or next door, the main characters like Big Nose were treated quite well. After all, they were in a tropical area, so they didn't have to worry about freezing or dying of thirst.
Fangzheng had also figured out the movement patterns of these Predators.
They would first arrive on this planet in a mothership, then land at the assembly point in their own small spaceships. These Predators would choose the area they wanted to "play" in. They would then divide into teams of three and bring their hounds to the "playground", where they would start hunting. Fangzheng did not know whether the Predators had points or rankings, but in his opinion, these Predators did not seem to care about such things. They were simply honing their skills and fighting with the humans who were captured here. From there, they would gain the experience and reactions they should have when facing various attacks in various environments and scenes.
Fortunately, according to Fangzheng's observation, the areas of the Predators were divided. If a team of three had entered an area to hunt, the other teams would not choose that area. Only when the team of three failed and died, or after the team successfully left would the others enter the area to start hunting.
If Fangzheng's memory was correct, the ones in charge of hunting in this area were the Griffin, Elephant-Griffin trio from the movie. He had already killed one of them, so there were only two left now.
But … none of this had anything to do with him.
In the world of "Edge of Tomorrow", the reason why Fangzheng chose to act in secret was that the mission limited his faction and he was afraid of scaring the humans. But in this world, there were no mission restrictions. Therefore, Fangzheng did not hesitate to go all out.
Although Fangzheng had not had time to build too many bases on this land, the wave of soldiers he accumulated in "Edge of Tomorrow" was not in vain. Before leaving the world of "Edge of Tomorrow", Fangzheng stuffed all his Zerg troops into Leviathan and sent them into space. But now, through the portal opened by the "Dimensional Codex", these Zerg troops had returned again!
Fangzheng did not go looking for trouble with the Predators immediately. For him, the most important thing was to completely occupy this planet. If he sent a wave of Zerg troops, he would have nothing to fear!
Of course, that was what he said … but in fact, Fangzheng had no idea how to do it.
In the world of "Edge of Tomorrow", the reason why Fangzheng chose to control the swarm himself was because he knew that the enemy would rewind. Moreover, the battles in the world of "Edge of Tomorrow" were still within Fangzheng's scope of understanding. But in the world of "Predator", Fangzheng knew nothing about interstellar warfare. After all, in the world of his reincarnation, humans had not even colonized the moon yet. How could they have such high-level interstellar warfare experience?
So … Fangzheng directly left everything to Milune. He intended to take a good look at how the Zerg carried out interstellar warfare.
Under Milune's command, a storm was about to set off on the whole planet.
One by one, the worker drones quietly spread out and rode the Overlords to every corner of the planet in search of resources. They quietly spread out in all directions of the planet, and the Tunnel Worms also began to dig holes in the ground to connect the various bases. After obtaining the resources, the worm nests began to spread wildly in all directions. They did not hide their desire to devour everything. Like a virus, they began to devour the whole planet.
And all this … finally attracted the attention of the Predators.
Night fell.
A small mechanical falcon spread its wings and quickly flew into the depths of the jungle. It was looking for prey, like a hound raised by a hunter, searching for traces, then … .reporting.
Under the infrared scanning, the rainforest was completely dark. But just as the mechanical falcon was about to return home, a large patch of bright red suddenly appeared in front of its eyes!
What's that?
The mechanical falcon was not surprised. It quickly changed its direction and headed into the depths of the jungle again. But before it could see the bright red patch clearly, suddenly, accompanied by a sharp whistle, countless needles shot out from below the mechanical falcon and completely blew it up!
* Bang!! *
With a soft sound, the mechanical falcon instantly exploded, turning into a pile of scrap metal.
"… … …"
At the same time, in the camp in the distance, a Predator wearing a falcon mask stood up and looked into the distance with a solemn expression. Just now, he had sent his mechanical falcon to look for his missing companions, but he did not expect to make an unexpected discovery. But his mechanical falcon was destroyed before he could figure out what it was.
Recalling the last scene transmitted back by the mechanical falcon with its infrared vision, the Predator was a little puzzled. All the "prey" on this planet were caught by them from various planets. The Predators had a good understanding of these creatures. But … .what was that just now?
At the thought of this, the Predator whistled. Soon, along with his whistle, the 'Hounds' that were lying around him stood up one after another. These "hounds" looked like skinned wild dogs, but unlike wild dogs, they had sharp bone spikes all over their bodies, making them look extremely ferocious. Following the Predator's order, the hounds immediately ran into the jungle, heading in the direction where the mechanical falcon had fallen.
However, not long after the hounds left, the Predator suddenly heard the howling of the hounds in the distance. But after a moment, the hounds no longer responded!
"… … …"
Aware of this, the Predators also looked around vigilantly. He whistled again, but this time, he did not get a response from the hounds.
* Whoosh!! *
Sensing that the situation was not good, the Predator wearing the falcon mask immediately waved his hands. Sharp blades popped out from between his arms. At the same time, the shoulder cannon on his body began to rotate left and right. The Predator turned around and quickly switched through various scanning methods, looking warily at the jungle around him. At the same time, another Predator wearing an elephant mask beside him was also ready for battle, watching the surroundings.
He didn't know if it was because of the wind or some other reason, but there was a rustling sound coming from the bushes in the dark night, as if something was shuttling back and forth between them.
