Chapter 880: The Birthplace of Zerg
After the splinter tests, the Leviathan sailed to another planet where Abathur had left thousands of Banelings earlier.
The planet's geology is very unstable, and low-lying areas are often flooded with lava.
Banelings can only survive in lava.
Through the stressful evolution of the Zerg, the Baneling has gone through multiple life cycles, and finally evolved: hunting insects.
These predatory insects can survive by climbing over cliff highlands to avoid lava upwelling in low-lying areas.
At the same time, their strong jumping power is enough to allow them to be ejected at extremely long distances, causing a terrifying bombardment of the enemy with lightning speed.
Lin Fan arrived here, controlled these hunting insects, and kept collecting the hunting insects left in different areas.
Because of the lava geological relationship here, crystal ore is very rich, even high-energy crystal ore. This allowed the mining operators of the imperial forces to conduct exploration from here and set up bases and outposts.
The base originally built on high ground is easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as there are enough missile towers and a considerable number of mechanized troops, the normalization of mining operations can be guaranteed.
But these imperial troops only guarded the front door, forgetting the cliffs behind them. The hunting insects cut in from the rear of the human base, and fell from the sky, blowing up the main buildings of the imperial troops, and completely cutting off the communication.
Abathur immediately dispatched more swarm troops to make an emergency landing through airdrops, drowning the isolated and helpless mechanized troops, and taking the high-energy crystal mine here as his own.
Then Kerrigan announced, go to Zerus, the birthplace of the zerg.
Dozens of Leviathans, with a large number of troops, leaped towards the galaxy belt where Zerus was located...
Zeratul, the dark master, has long been waiting for Kerrigan's arrival in the galaxy of Zerus.
Zeratul told Kerrigan that on Zerus, there is power that can reshape the zerg, and this power is exactly what Kerrigan needs.
But the original Zerg of Zerus obviously didn't welcome these outsiders.
Abathur has used the gene pool to reorganize the Allosaurus and join the Zerg army again.
Through reconnaissance, the primordial zerg on Zerus are nearly immortal.
Through continuous devouring, they ensure the continuation of the essence and will not perish over time.
However, the weak and the strong will not die, but will be killed by more powerful zerg and become bait for evolution.
If Kerrigan wants to gain the power of Zerus, he must first awaken the Zongzu. This huge sleeper needs a lot of biomass to wake up from an unknown long sleep.
Fortunately, there are giant beasts called Bristleback Beasts here. These giant beasts are huge and can eject sharp bone spears from their backs. They are extremely lethal, but they are not very difficult to deal with.
Perfect for Kerrigan to wake up the Zongzu.
Lin Fan, Zagara, and Kerrigan split into three groups to search for the Bristleback, collect biomass, and attack the original Zerg group at the same time.
A primitive Zerg leader named Barak was very unwelcome to Kerrigan's arrival. Seeing that Kerrigan was going to wake up the Zongzu, he immediately sent a group to stop it.
It's just that Barak's blocking didn't work. Lin Fan, Zagara, and Kerrigan, three pillars, step by step, spread the creep tumors, and continuously increase the coverage of the site.
Barak, who was in a hurry to jump over the wall, directly took the idea of the Bristleback, so crazy that he wanted to destroy all the Bristlebacks in the nearby area, so that Kerrigan could not use the biomass to awaken the Zongzu.
Under such a trend, Lin Fan, Zagara and Kerrigan carried out a division of labor.
Lin Fan was in charge of the frontal attack.
Zagara guards the lair.
Kerrigan attacked from the side.
A three-pronged approach ensures that the worker bees can efficiently and safely deliver the biomass to Zongzu's mouth to complete the progress.
On Zerus, there are scattered pools of Primal Essence, which boost Kerrigan's power.
That's why Kerrigan is attacking in the flank, to take the Primal Essence Pool.
Lin Fan only brought the different dragons and corpse bugs as the main force.
Allosaurus has high mobility, and in terms of characteristics, it is a cockroach in the sky. Compared with other Zerg, its regeneration ability is still very high.
The parasitic saliva of corpse worms can parasitize the enemy. Even the original zerg will explode small cockroaches when they die.
The corpse bug spits and dives into the ground. Then Allosaurus made up the knife with high mobility.
Even though Barak wanted reinforcements, the little cockroaches had already burst out, and the loss was getting bigger and bigger, and there were more and more little cockroaches.
But the original Zerg is not a soft persimmon.
But it's not like Lin Fan and the others are going to fight the original Zerg right now.
The purpose of this time is to accumulate enough biomass to awaken the Zongzu.
So Barack was too keen on attacking and forgot the main purpose of Lin Fan and others.
By the time they reacted, the worker bees had already fed the last piece of biomass into Zongzu's mouth.
Barak became furious and led the group out in full force.
But the split insects who were ambushed by Lin Fan went to heaven.
When a splitter explodes, it will split once. Even if it can only split once, two small Banelings with half the damage will explode again, and the final damage will be very impressive.
Barack was killed. The clans scattered and fled.
Zongzu wakes up.
This giant beast is much bigger than Leviathan, after all, it is the first batch of Zerg.
Kerrigan explained his purpose to Zongzu.
Hope to get Zongzu's help.
And Zongzu talked about history...
The Zerg originated from Xel'Naga, but some Zerg escaped at that time and stayed in Zerus, where they have multiplied to this day.
Zongzu said he was free. Back then, Xel'Naga, or "Emon", the fallen of Xel'Naga, wanted to use the power of the Zerg to seize the abilities of other races, and gave a will to the Zerg.
Zongzu thought this was an extremely cruel deprivation.
After talking about the history, Zongzu finally got to the point.
If Kerrigan wants to gain more power, he must purify the remnants of the Xel'Naga on his body.
Zerus is the birthplace of the Zerg, with the original split pool, which existed much earlier than the Zerg...
Kerrigan has to stand the test of the split pool.
