"Puff, puff, puff!"
With a few crisp sounds, five Bladed Beetles, each over a meter tall, crawled out of a red "pool."
Shaking off the mucus left on its body, it revealed the dark red "scythe" and barbed carapace that were filled with a murderous aura like dried blood.
Bladed Beetle (Level 50, Elite), HP: 10000!
Feng Luo looked at the five Level 50 Elite Bladed Beetles with a satisfied expression on his face.
Because 24K's level was not high enough, it was still unable to control and hatch the "Queen." As such, although there were tens of thousands of Zerg eggs stored in the base, Feng Luo had not hatched a large number of real Zerg units yet.
However, considering the lifespan limit after hatching, Feng Luo had not hatched a large number of real Zerg units yet.
However, he made an attempt, which was to use the Zerg base to cultivate beetle troops.
Originally, the level and grade of the beetle troops were determined by the "host" they chose when they hatched.
As such, when choosing high-level monsters, the normal beetle troops would reach Level 25 and above when they hatched.
This was even stronger than the real Zerg "Ferocious Beetles," as the larvae of the Ferocious Beetles were only Level 10 when they hatched.
However, the growth rate of a Ferocious Beetle after hatching was super terrifying. In one day, it could grow into a Level 40 sub-adult, and in three days, it could become a mature Level 50!
In comparison, the initial level of the beetle troops was higher, but the subsequent leveling up required a long period of growth, battle, and food.
During this process, most of them would die in battle before they could reach the Level 50 limit.
This was also one of the reasons why Feng Luo's "Beetle Army" had never been formed.
It was only after Feng Luo had found the "Advanced Zerg Cultivation Fluid" in the experimental base of the space battleship that this problem had been solved to a certain extent.
The Zerg Cultivation Fluid could not only allow the beetles to level up quickly.
It could even allow Normal Grade beetles to have a certain chance of evolving into Elite Grade units.
The significance of this was undoubtedly significant.
Although there was only a difference of one level, the combat power of an Elite-grade unit was much higher than that of two Normal-grade beetles.
Most importantly, although 24K did not lack the psionic energy needed to incubate the beetle troops, there was a limit to the number of eggs it could produce each day. In addition, the beetle troops also had a limit to how long they could live. The beetle army actually had a hidden limit.
Therefore, it meant that every egg had to be used to its maximum value in order to not be wasted.
Due to this reason, Feng Luo had also specifically sought out a black female NPC master from the Federal Military to help him formulate a cultivation fluid specifically suited for beetle troops.
However, the cultivation fluid that the NPC had created was a fake.
There was only a one in three chance that the beetle troops could be promoted to the Elite grade, and the price was a little cheaper.
Using it on 24K was naturally not a waste, but using it on these single-use beetle troops that could die in battle at any time was definitely "burning money."
In the past, Feng Luo really wasn't afraid of burning. However, now that he had the Zerg base, he was really out of money.
However, as he was upgrading the Zerg base and nurturing the first Zerg from the hatching pool, Feng Luo suddenly thought of something.
Could he use the Zerg base to nurture beetle troops?
After all, the "Zerg's cultivation fluid" from before had already proven that it was equally effective on beetles.
As soon as this idea came to mind, Feng Luo couldn't wait to test it out.
And the results made him overjoyed.
Using the Zerg base to nurture beetle troops, the probability of them evolving to the Elite grade was almost 100%!
More importantly, not only could they evolve to the Elite grade …
Whoosh!
Another Bladed Beetle jumped out of the red "pool."
However, this Bladed Beetle was twice the size of the previous Level-50 Elite Bladed Beetles.
Its body that was more than two meters tall was covered in a layer of hard, horny carapace, and its pair of dark red, sickle-shaped pincers were definitely long enough to easily cut a person in half.
Bladed Beetle (Level 50, Commander), HP: 25000!
Through the nurturing of the Zerg base, the Zerg unit had about a 10% chance of advancing to the Commander grade.
This was also why Feng Luo had dared to use two Commander Grade Steel Beetles to block the door in White City previously, and why he didn't feel any heartache when they were sacrificed in the end.
Because, in theory, as long as the Zerg base was provided with enough "food," the beetle army would be able to continuously produce Commander Grade units!
On the current player forum, the video of Seven Kills commanding thousands of infected creatures to attack the police station had made his Boss Grade Parasitic Queen pet vaguely have the title of "War's Number One Pet."
However, even if the Zerg units that had been hatched were not included.
The beetle army under 24K's command was not inferior to the infected army at all, be it in terms of quantity or quantity.
The only thing that might be inferior was probably because the beetles were social units. Even if they were at the same level and quantity, they would indeed be slightly inferior.
However, in the beetle army, the ratio of Commander Grade units was definitely higher than Seven Kills' infected army.
More importantly, the beetle army had various units with clear division of labor, and they were more able to accept 24K's command in battle.
Compared to the infected creatures that only knew how to attack randomly, Feng Luo believed that if the two of them really fought, they would definitely not lose!
Moreover, 24K was not just the "King Beetle" of the beetles. Its future identity should be the "Brain Bug" of the Zerg race.
As for the infected creatures and zombies, although they had the ability to destroy a planet, compared to the Zerg race that ran amok in the universe, they were definitely not on the same level.
Seven Kills, or the current number one guild of the Rebel Army, Roaring Dragon Guild, behind him, wanted to use a Boss Grade parasite that had a lot of restrictions to snatch the "War's Number One Pet" from 24K's hands?
Feng Luo could only chuckle.
"Squeak, squeak!"
However, before Feng Luo could chuckle, 24K, who was lying on Feng Luo's shoulder as if it was sleeping, suddenly opened its bean-like eyes and squeaked twice.
"Hmm?"
Feng Luo's eyes instantly went blank, then returned to normal after a few seconds.
After that, he turned around and ran toward the entrance behind him.
Ten seconds later, Feng Luo and the others arrived at the entrance of the Zerg base.
"Brother Feng, what's wrong?"
Seeing Feng Luo suddenly rush out at high speed.
At the entrance of the base, a Scout player in the air-conditioned sentry post asked in surprise.
"There's a situation. Get everyone to pick up their weapons. There might be a battle!"
Feng Luo ordered. He was already running toward a sand dune at the side.
The buildings of the Zerg base had been carefully constructed. They had even specially changed the surrounding terrain. The surrounding sand dunes formed a ring shape in all directions to ensure that outsiders could not see the actual situation inside from the ground.
From inside the base, one only needed to run up a sand dune not far away to clearly see the open terrain of more than a kilometer outside.
After Feng Luo climbed up the sand dune, he did not use his binoculars.
Just by relying on his naked eye, he could already clearly see that at the bottom of his field of vision about a kilometer away …
"Boom!"
On the ground, a rolling sandstorm that looked like a tornado appeared and was moving toward them. And within the chaotic, almost black sandstorm, there seemed to be something.
"Hiss! What's going on? A sandstorm? "
The Scout player had already rushed up with his recon meter. He could not help but exclaim when he saw the situation through the recon glasses.
"It's not a sandstorm. It's man-made. Yes, or should I say, it's done by a monster! "
Feng Luo's pupils had already turned purple.
With the Super Eagle Eye activated, even a chaotic sandstorm couldn't completely block his vision.
"Ah, a monster?"
"Hey, there seems to be a car in front of the sandstorm. The people in the car seem to be people from our guild."
The Scout player was a little stunned.
Then, as if he had suddenly discovered something, he used the recon glasses to zoom in on the area in front of the sandstorm.
In front of the sandstorm, there was a black dot that looked like a creature to the naked eye. However, after zooming in 10 times, one could clearly see that it was actually an energy SUV with the emblem of Nightless City.
However, this SUV was currently fleeing at full speed in front of the rolling sandstorm. It was like a rabbit being chased by a fierce tiger, panicking.
"Everyone, hurry up and run!"
"The Boss is attacking the city!"
It seemed that the situation at the base had been noticed. A panicked voice was transmitted to the ears of everyone here through the Nightless Guild channel.
