What happened next was a matter of course. When the conditions were right, success would naturally follow. At this moment, the Mother of the Blackthorns was still unceasingly dispatching hydralisks to engage in suicidal harassment. But after the Thick-liquid tribe's Overmind perished. The troops in the base were in a defensive state, completely ignoring the harassing brats.
After Overmind Mozi's incomparably domineering appearance, he immediately seized control of the army from the Mother of the Blackthorns. A squad of hydralisk swarmed into the Thick-liquid tribe's base in a single file, and successfully converged with the contestants. Without much effort, the hydralisk decimated the Thick-liquid tribe's heavily wounded Queen Mother.
Following that, the arachnid Queen Jenny fluttered over. At present, although the Thick-liquid tribe still had massive amounts of arachnid troops, under the oppressive aura of the evolved Overmind Mozi, they were utterly terrified and fled in panic. They couldn't even muster the slightest intention to resist, and posed no threat to this elite variant Empress.
Instead, Jenny paused for a moment above a rather large nest, before her entire body dissolved and parasitized inside. That nest stopped producing larvae, and started evolving into a Mother nest. The entire Thick-liquid tribe's arachnid troops seemed to have found their backbone, as they congregated in front of the nest.
24 hours later, that nest would evolve into a Queen Mother. But naturally, it had already been brainwashed by the elite Queen Jenny, and had tacitly agreed to be a subsidiary base of the Blackthorn tribe. The arachnid troops would then pledge their allegiance, and become part of the Overmind Mozi's subordinates.
At this moment, Sheyan and Mogensha finally relaxed as they sat down to rest. Especially to Sheyan, although the previous battle seemed ordinary, a slight misstep and he would've been torn apart by the Thick-liquid tribe's arachnids. Hence, he hastily bandaged his wounds, and couldn't help but lean against the nearby wall to sleep. Mogensha similarly exhausted quite a bit of his energy, he originally wanted to take a short nap. But in the end, he couldn't resist the invasion of fatigue and fell asleep as well.
Time swiftly elapsed, until the Queen Mother and the Overmind reunited. Only then did the sleeping Sheyan and Mogensha were awoken by the notification of their nightmare imprint.
"You've completed the hidden region event: Blackthorn tribe's re-emergence."
"You've obtained the friendship of the Blackthorn tribe."
"Your prestige within the Blackthorn tribe has been raised to 'Revered'."
"You can now purchase some new biological weapons from the Mother of the Blackthorns."
The two of them were instantly overjoyed, as they immediately went to check. Only to discover that the Mother of the Blackthorns had already displayed a list of items to purchase. This included almost all of the insectoid units that had appeared.
"Zerglings, Hydralisks, Overlords, Drones." These 4 types of units could be purchased immediately.
"Mutalisks, Suicide Mosquitoes, Stealth Spikes, Zerg Empress" were also listed in the purchasable column, but the purchasable quantity was zero.
This was because these 4 types of soldiers required the simultaneous evolution of the Blackthorn tribe's Queen Mother and Overmind. Then, after constructing the relevant advanced structures and researching the relevant technology, only then would they be able to synthesize genetic hormones and hatch these high grade soldiers. Of course, these creatures that could be purchased could not be brought out of this world, and there were no elite creatures among them.
Mogensha frowned as he scanned through the long list of menus. Suddenly, he exclaimed.
"Have you noticed one thing, sailor?"
Sheyan replied.
"Is it the price of the worker bees?"
Mogensha lowered his voice.
"That's right, to purchase a mining worker bee, it actually requires a total of 5000 reputation points and 2000 utility points! This price is even higher than the Mutalisks and Zerg Empress! "
Sheyan nodded.
"My military rank is slightly higher, let me check and see what's going on."
In the next moment, Sheyan immediately frowned.
"Damn, just checking requires 500 utility points! Let me see ….. your drones cannot be brought out of this world, they don't have any construction capabilities. When you leave this world, they will die. During your stay in this world, the pandora crystals collected by your drones will become your personal property. You can sell them for utility points, or refine them. "
In this instance, both Sheyan and Mogensha hesitated. If they were to calculate, a drone's price would at least exceed 5000 utility points. But what was the actual price of a pandora crystal? How many crystals could a drone collect, when they would leave this world and a series of other factors were unclear. Hence, if they wanted to purchase a drone, then it would be a complete gamble.
If Sheyan and Mogensha were still in that temporary party and had obtained a leading position, then they would have the qualifications to gamble. But regrettably, they didn't have the capital to gamble! More importantly, Sheyan had considered a crucial issue. That was, what they were looking at was only 'Revered' reputation points! And above that, there were still 'Revered' reputation points! Furthermore, Jinkuang's abilities were often ineffective against the arachnids. Hence, Sheyan and Mogensha were unable to 'preview' the 'Revered' reputation points of the 'Mother of the Blackthorns'.
Not long after they left the Mother nest, they bumped into the machine gunner Baiise. It seemed like he had been waiting here for a long time, probably specially waiting here. This group of Pebbles special forces were currently considered as the Blackthorn tribe's allied forces. Hence, they had no obstructions in the base. However, forbidden areas like the Mother nest were still restricted. Unlike Sheyan and Mogensha who had 'Revered' reputation points, and had even fought alongside the Overmind during the most dangerous times. Hence, they obtained this privilege.
Baiise gave a standard military salute.
"Sir, Lieutenant Colonel Dundee has something to discuss with you."
Sheyan was slightly taken aback.
"What's the matter?"
Baiise earnestly replied.
"After we received news that the Blackthorn tribe had completely occupied this region, we set off to Laden's ship. We excavated some equipment and contacted headquarters. Headquarters also sent us some instructions, I believe Lieutenant Colonel Dundee is here for this matter. "
Sheyan and Mogensha glanced at each other, nodding their heads. Their eyes revealed delight, because during this period of battle, their reputation points had unfortunately plummeted by 2 points. Without a doubt, the other party led by Reef had met with a huge problem! Two more people had died. If their mission failed and Johnny Regg died, then they might be forced to return to the game. If they were able to obtain a decent side mission from Lieutenant Colonel Dundee, then they would undoubtedly be able to delay for a few more days.
The two of them strolled towards the Pebbles Special Task Force camp. At present, the entire Blackthorn tribe was buzzing with activity. Strange and gigantic organs were being hatched everywhere, while the larvae were busy hatching drones that were used to harvest ores.
Speaking of which, the strategy Sheyan gave to the Mother of the Blackthorns was truly vicious to the extreme. Not only was it ruthless to the enemy, it was also ruthless to oneself! At that time, in order to confuse the Thick-liquid tribe, the entire base, apart from the Mother of the Blackthorns' main body, the 'Mother Nest', and two other beast lairs, the only thing left was the hydralisk nest, and the densely packed Sunken Colonies! Their numbers amounted to 50. According to Sheyan's estimation, even if the worst happened, under the Thick-liquid tribe's full force counterattack, they would at least be able to hold out for 2-3 hours.
The result of such a militaristic strategy was naturally a huge blow to their vitality. In order for the Mother nest to evolve, it had to construct several basic structures. For example, the zergling hatchery was one of the prerequisites. Therefore, it would take at least a few hours for the broodmother to complete its evolution, and it would take even longer for the broodmother to complete its evolution.
Fortunately, the Thick-liquid tribe had already been swallowed up by the Blackthorn tribe. The pandora crystals they stored were naturally taken by the Blackthorn Overmind Mozi, who directly transported them back to his lair. As for the Thick-liquid tribe's arachnid forces, they could also inherit more than half. It had combined the resources of the two bases, so naturally, it had plenty of money on hand. Therefore, it was fortunate that the Blackthorn tribe could still develop at a crazy pace, squandering without restraint. In the short term, there wouldn't be a financial crisis.
Following the arachnid's' Mucus Creep 'carpet, the two of them headed towards the Pebbles special forces camp. After rescuing the Blackthorn Overmind Mozi, the treatment of this special forces had risen along with the tide, transforming from cannon fodder to an ally. Along the way, any arachnid they encountered would obediently lie down on the ground, using their actions to express their respect towards the two of them. Being in the midst of a massive incubating arachnid organ structure, occasionally spurting out streams of blood. Occasionally, the mournful cries of arachnids would echo in their ears. Truthfully speaking, a person with a weak mentality would feel as though they were in a nightmare.
It was probably because of this reason that the Pebbles Special Forces moved out of their base and set up camp beside a dry rocky mountain not far from the Zerg base. However, they were merely several metres away from the arachnid's' Mucus Creep 'carpet. In actual fact, although the arachnids were savage and bloodthirsty, there were many benefits to being their ally.
For example, those hateful scorpions, sand snakes and biting mosquitoes would absolutely not dare to approach the arachnid territory. Just the 'Mucus Creep' carpet alone was sufficient to digest them. Even some vicious primal creatures would maintain a respectful distance from the arachnid base. Thus, who knew how much trouble they could avoid. Moreover, the 24/7 aerial patrolling arachnid Overlord wouldn't have the slightest bit of slack or mistake. The extremely dedicated arachnid Overlord would accurately alert them of any ambush. This undoubtedly made night sentries a dispensable activity. (To be continued.)
