Chapter 1428 Heart of the Swarm
"I know what you're thinking." Dehaka's body began to glow...a kind of blue glow. The place where the psychic energy was scratched during the battle with the Queen of Blades began to heal, and it seemed to be warming up for the next battle: "Tang Fang, it's just your excuse. You are just like me, coveting the power in her body."
You must know that the Queen of Blades is the first character to break free from the restrictions of the system. How can an old monster like Zuerwin who once plotted against the original Queen of Blades feel at ease as someone else's lackey... This is what Dehaka thinks now .
Zurwin let out a low growl and said, "Dehaka, your ambition is growing."
"No, I'm just smarter than before." Dehaka didn't continue to talk nonsense with Zuerwen. When he said this, he kicked his feet down and rushed towards the Queen of Blades. The small tentacles obstructed along the way were torn into countless pieces by its sharp claws and thick tail.
Zuerwen turned his body slightly, and grabbed the right arm that was originally lying on the ground to the left, trying to pinch the monkey that was jumping nimbly on his body.
It's a pity that it failed to fulfill its wish. Dehaka's tail turned into a spring, touched the steel skin in the palm of Zuerwen, and moved forward at a faster speed. While avoiding the grasp, he pierced into the cluster of tentacles in front of him, and frantically swung all the weapons on his body .
With a whirring sound, the flames surged upwards, forming a burning area on the surface of the tentacles.
Zulwin's agonized howl resounded across the field, and the tentacles covering the Queen of Blades began to crumble.
Dehaka's excited roar echoed over the battlefield... The Queen of Blades is not far in front of it, and the delicious essence is waiting for it to enjoy.
At this moment, an unexpected situation happened.
Before the inextinguishable flame burned Zulwin's tentacles, a dazzling light shot up into the sky, and the rapidly expanding energy flow was like a rotating chainsaw, crushing those tentacles, and the aftermath of energy pulled Dehaka into it.
Wounds appeared on its body, one after another, and the blood flowed out crazily. The repair speed of the essence substance to the body cannot keep up with the damage speed of the wild energy to the body.
The excitement in Dehaka's heart ebbed like a tide, turning into surprise and panic. Those energies that constantly cut its body were not pure spiritual energy, but mixed with an indescribable unknown force. It is this unknown force that amplifies the damage effect of psionic energy to the immediate extent.
The energy churned into the clouds, and the sky was darkened. Zuerwen's roar weakened from intensity, and those tentacles, big and small, including half of his face, were torn apart in the storm.
Dehaka was blown away by the aftermath of the energy, trying to roll his body into a ball, using this most primitive and most effective way to weaken the rapidly expanding storm surge.
When it was blown away by the knife-like airflow, suddenly a palm strangled its throat.
The palm was not big, but it was stronger than the hardest alloy. As time passed, the grip became tighter and tighter, and the nails had sunk into the tough outer skin that was strong enough to resist bullets.
Dehaka let out a roar with all his strength, and the dark insects hidden under the skin rushed out, rolling towards the figure in the chaotic airflow ahead.
Affected by the sudden burst of energy, the entire southern part of the island fell into darkness and chaos. Dehaka couldn't see the face of the person in front of him clearly, he could barely make out a pair of orange eyes.
The microorganisms that made up the dark swarm fell with gray-white smoke, and nearly half died within just two or three breaths. Fortunately, they did not disappoint Dehaka, and the hand that was strangling its throat was withdrawn.
Of course it knew who the guy in front was. Although it couldn't figure out why the Queen of Blades could burst out with such strength, it knew very well that it couldn't sit still, and then contracted its abdominal cavity, preparing for the third flame breath.
A black shadow parted the chaotic airflow and pierced into its left rib. Then came the second black shadow, sinking deeply into its right arm.
The flame breath was interrupted, replaced by a mouthful of blood. The orange-yellow hive psionic energy flowed in the air, extending from a distance to Dehaka's body, forming the outline of the bone wings behind the Queen of Blades.
When a star shines through the clouds over the battlefield,
The shadow cast by the bone wing on the ground rose, and the shadow corresponding to Dehaka's arm separated from his body.
Its right arm was severed entirely by the Queen of Blades. No, not just the right arm, the bony wing inserted into its left rib unleashed a bolt of psionic lightning that nearly scorched half of its body.
The light on Dehaka's body dimmed, and the vitality in his body quickly faded. Its ambition, its wisdom, and its vitality were all taken away from its body by the blow just now.
"Why, I...wouldn't be, your opponent..." The Queen of Blades withdrew her bone wings, and her body was like fallen petals, falling downwards facing the radiance that fell from the sky again.
It couldn't figure out why the Queen of Blades, who didn't have the power of the original Zerg, made it so embarrassed.
"No, it shouldn't...have such a result. Dehaka, don't admit it. Dehaka...is the master of the original zerg." The clamor dispersed with the wind, and Dehaka's seriously injured body fell on Zurwin In the quagmire on the left, a row of muddy water was splashed.
The Queen of Blades was suspended in mid-air, looking coldly at Dehaka, who was incapacitated, with emotionless eyes.
Zurwin had half of his face shattered when the psychic vortex erupted, collapsed on the ground and lost consciousness, and would not continue to attack the Queen of Blades, and of course it was impossible to answer Dehaka's questions.
They knew from Tang Fang that there was a power in the Queen of Blades that could shield the system from sensing, but they didn't know that this power came from Hecate, which had extremely strong explosive power. Just imagine that even Noah can't resist, how can Mr. Toad and Erha students fight head-on.
With a whoosh, the Queen of Blades fell from the sky, and the high heels crushed two sharp claws on Dehaka's left hand.
Dehaka glanced at the chrysalis in the center of the ancient hatching pool from the corner of his eye, his eyes changed from cruel to docile, looked at the Queen of Blades and said, "Dehaka, choose to surrender."
The Queen of Blades didn't even look at it, and walked towards the ancient hatching pool.
The crippled Erha was like a poor wretch abandoned by his master, lying in the filthy quagmire, spitting out a mouthful of blood-smeared minced meat from time to time.
Zurwin is incapacitated, Dehaka is severely wounded, and Yagpaw, Slivan, and Dagos are held back by the Zerg landing force. The Angel and Behemoth also escaped from the Alcubado star system, and no one can stop the Queen of Blades.
This cunning and vicious woman is lucky...
The calm water surface of the ancient hatching pool was broken by a foot, and the dark green liquid rich in biological energy splashed faintly.
The roars of fear bugs and tyrannosaurus came from a distance, and under the fallen snow trees in the nearby forest, the faces of local creatures retracted and looked around, and disappeared under the creep.
The Queen of Blades moved forward all the way, getting closer and closer to the core worm pupae of the ancient hatching pool.
The atmosphere became extremely oppressive, the clouds once again covered the face of "Acubado", and the darkness coveted the entire island. Only the light blue vesicles at the top of the chrysalis shone softly and radiantly very regularly.
Excitement glowed in the depths of the Queen of Blades' eyes, and orange psionic energy flowed from the end of the bone wings.
Without hesitation, she raised her sharp claws and cut into the outer skin of the chrysalis, cutting downwards.
Just like when a human being is nervous, the heart beats faster, and the flickering frequency of the chrysalis begins to increase. It seems that the people inside are very afraid of her arrival.
A streak of bioluminescent light leaked from the place she cut, and then a light blue solution different from the pool water gushed out from it with a splash, pouring into the pool water in front of the Queen of Blades, diluting the green.
It's close... right in front of you. The essence of the protozoa will reshape her body, giving her the power to completely wipe out Claire's personality. Only then will she be truly free, from mind to body...
Everything Tang Fang did was to make a wedding dress for her, and she would lead the swarm to become the master of this universe.
With that thought and emotion, she inserted both palms into the opening just opened, and pushed it out forcefully, a large amount of light blue biological fluid that was originally full of vesicles gushed out and spread around her body.
In a sufficiently spacious vesicle, Cathy's body is connected to the pupal tissue through groups of tiny meridians. Compared with her before, the light blue tentacles near the ears became much longer, drooping from the top to the shoulders, which looked a bit like human hair.
In addition, the scale structure on the face has also become less obvious, from the original keratinization to softening, but there are more obvious scale outlines on the cheeks.
Judging from these two points, her biological characteristics as an Elante have been largely degraded.
Obviously, the metamorphosis was not complete when Queen of Blades broke open the chrysalis, because the plum blossom-shaped spot on Miss Cathy's forehead was still obscure, and the spot at 12 o'clock flickered twice after the biological solution was exhausted, and finally disappeared.
In addition, there are only scattered chitin carapaces on her body, which is completely unlike the one-piece armor that the Queen of Blades has.
Well, use a vivid but slightly vulgar metaphor to describe it. The Queen of Blades is like a ruthless female killer who wraps herself in leather pants and a leather jacket, while Cathy is an exotic girl wearing BIKINI on the beach.
When the Queen of Blades saw the woman in the chrysalis, her eyes gleamed coldly. Without any pity or hesitation, she pinched Cathy's neck and pulled it out. The veins connected to the inner wall of the chrysalis were violently torn apart.
As if catching an insignificant prey, she casually threw Cathy into the pool of water behind her, stepping on the raised biological tissue on the surface of the chrysalis and stepping inside.
The reason why she came here was not to absorb the essence of the original zerg from the ancient hatching pool, improve her own strength, break through the energy barrier that protected Claire's consciousness, and completely occupy the control of this body.
Just like Tang Fang's conversation with Claire in the Montesk star system, she thought it was disgusting, and it was an insult to the name Queen of Blades.
She, the master of the swarm, is also the embodiment of the swarm consciousness. How the feelings of such a small and fragile race like humans can take root in her... This is the last thing she can accept.
The next time we meet, she will let Tang Fang taste the pain of losing a loved one. It was her revenge for his use of the system to enslave her, and for humiliating her earlier in the Montesk star system.
Is this vicious? maybe……
Is this vicious? Maybe……
However, this is exactly what she wants to achieve, she just wants everyone to know the fate of being an enemy of her. Let the Dragon Whisperer, the Supreme Security Council, the Anubis Legion, Tang Fang and his morning star casting, and the sovereign countries of the human world live in fear of the swarm.
Her body began to glow, and the psionic energy traveled through the gaps in the chitin carapace and the superficial meridians, and her body slowly rose, guiding the biological pipes connected to the inner wall of the chrysalis to insert into key parts such as the back of the neck, spine, and wrists, and began to absorb the ancient Primal Zerg Essence and Active Zero from the Hatchling Pool.
As Izsha told her, the zerg essence of the ancient hatching pool can affect people's minds, turning them into brutal biological machines dominated by killing hearts.
Such an impact would obviously not have an impact on the Queen of Blades who upholds the will of the swarm. She's not Kerrigan with her human frailties... she has a true Heart of the Swarm.
After connecting with the chrysalis, the outer wall of the creature cut by her began to slowly repair, gradually covering the inner space, and the vesicles that had lost their color began to shine again.
Cathy was thrown into the ancient hatching pool, half of her body was covered by the green liquid; Dehaka in the distance lost her ability to move and fell into a deep coma; Zurwin collapsed motionless on the swamp in front of the pool.
A few overlords floated from the sky, and the Zerg combat unit belonging to the Queen of Blades began to occupy this land, just like protecting Kerrigan in the Battle of the Heart of the Swarm, ready to perform protection and removal tasks.
On the river valley battlefield, the native zerg side began to lose. After finishing off the Rigidbacks on the river bank, the two birdmen flew to the area where the ancient hatching pool was located, and their icy eyes fell on Dehaka and Cathy who could not move.
Everything is developing according to the Queen of Blades script, from launching a surprise attack to grabbing the ancient hatching pool. Dehaka's sneak attack was considered an unexpected situation, but fortunately, she has settled it.
The combat power of the original zerg on Akron turned into a disadvantage, and local defeats began to occur. In the big picture, if nothing unexpected happens, the zerg units used to protect the ancient hatching pool chrysalis will definitely not be under siege from three sides like the Heart of the Swarm campaign. It's a pity that they are not human beings, otherwise they would play cards together, light a fire and have a barbecue party, and this operation would have ended perfectly.
But just like Nehemiah did not expect Paradise Star to appear in the inner void of the Alcubador star system, the Queen of Blades also missed the calculation...the accident just happened.
The change didn't come from the sky, nor did it have anything to do with the native zerg on the ground, let alone Miss Cathy waking up, breaking through the Tianyuan like the original Queen of Blades, sweeping away all obstacles in the way.
It is the chrysalis that changes. About fifteen minutes after Kerrigan went inside, the outer wall of the healed creature was broken from the inside, and the light blue biological solution that hadn't filled the vesicles gushed out again.
