Chapter 375: Forward Base

Cradle resource well, inner circle.

The micro wellheads that appear densely from time to time, while throwing out a large amount of God's Domain fragments, also bring about violent void disturbances.

The void turbulence carrying resource materials, in the rushing flow, pulls each other together, forming a flowing God's Domain fragment resource belt.

In the core area of ​​this intermediate resource well, the void turbulence is more like a surging tide, and it stirs up a raging sea from time to time.

The void disturbances that are difficult to find regularities, like thousands of ocean currents in the sea, spread radially to the outer periphery. This is what the gods call the void ocean currents.

Each void ocean current has a very wide radiation range, and contains countless God's Domain fragments.

It's a pity that in this extremely chaotic environment of disturbance, it will cause the exploration beacon to be unable to accurately detect the surrounding situation. Once they are released, basically no effective information can be obtained.

Therefore, it is much more difficult to search for resources in the void ocean currents than in the outer circle.

At the edge of the inner circle of the cradle, at the end of a branch of the void ocean current, the flow rate has slowed down significantly.

A huge reddish-brown land is slowly floating with countless barren fragments around it.

From a distance, it looks like a dry maple leaf falling into a stream and drifting with the waves.

In fact, this is a continent made of pieces of fragments of the ownerless divine domain, glued together and spliced ​​together.

Its surface and interior are completely covered with wildly growing fungal vegetation.

If a passing god uses his divine mind to perceive, it is not difficult to notice that the countless tentacles of these fungal vegetation exposed in the void are slowly absorbing the free energy in the void and becoming more and more vigorous.

They are the new fungal blankets that Han Fei has spent a lot of time and energy to improve and optimize many times.

And this continent glued together by fungal blankets is the bridgehead for the swarm army to enter the inner circle of the cradle.

Countless meteorite-like barren divine domain fragments have been covered and spliced ​​together by fungal blankets to form a vast continent of hundreds of millions of square kilometers.

Around this continent, more fragments of the ownerless divine domain are still being dragged by the Zerg fleet, gathering in an endless stream, and the area of ​​this continent is constantly growing.

In the underground command room of the fungal blanket continent.

As a leader of the brainworm army who is performing a glorious external mission, Wilson is now boredly counting the development of this forward base and taking inventory of various resources salvaged recently.

Comparing the resource price list issued by Han Fei, he finally finished the preliminary valuation work of the resources collected recently.

"Hey, there is still a lot to go."

After calculating the recent income, Wilson scratched his head with his tentacles with some worry.

Generally speaking, with the cowardly nature of the brainworm group, basically no one will take the initiative to apply for such external missions.

A brand new job without a precedent represents a huge risk.

However, in order to mobilize the subjective initiative of the brainworms, Han Fei gave too much when issuing this recruitment task.

As long as they salvage enough valuable resources within the specified time, the brainworms performing the task can return to the divine domain and receive generous rewards.

Such generous treatment is undoubtedly a good way to greatly improve the quality of life for brainworms who have never been able to be promoted to holy spirits.

Especially for brainworms at the level of legion commander like Wilson, the rewards they can get will be dozens of times the salary of military positions.

If they are lucky, they can get high-level precious resources, and the performance commission they can get is not an exaggeration to say that it is a windfall.

Therefore, knowing that they will not meet other minions of gods when they serve as fleet commanders and stay in the inner circle of the "cradle" for a long time, the brainworms still fight for this job.

Take a chance, and the bicycle will become a motorcycle.

After coming to this area, Wilson, who has spent more than two years and has not salvaged enough resources, is annoyed every day about his luck and why it is so bad.

If you want to obtain resources in the void ocean currents, because the exploration beacon function is limited, you can only send a fleet to conduct a large-scale dragnet search.

The specific harvest depends entirely on luck.

His garrison mission period is ten years, but the previous two fleet commanders took less than two years to reach the salvage quota, completed the mission ahead of schedule, and returned to the divine domain to enjoy a good insect life.

Just as Wilson was complaining about himself, the commander of the third squadron received a report of encountering the enemy in the consciousness network.

Controlling the mobile nutrition cabin, Wilson quickly rushed to the bridge.

The whole body, wrapped in the substantial mental power, leaped up and entered the special brain worm command cabin.

As the hatch closed, high-concentration nutrients were quickly injected.

The pressure in the cabin continued to increase until the nutrients were thick enough to be almost semi-solid, wrapping Wilson tightly.

"Buzz............."

As Wilson's mental power was infused in large quantities, the underlying structure of the consciousness network vibrated at a high frequency, and a buzzing sound from the consciousness level appeared.

The invisible and intangible consciousness network continued to extend outward with a clear direction.

It traversed the endless void and instantly captured and connected with the fleet commander who sent back the warning.

Wilson asked anxiously through consciousness transmission: "Anderson, what's the situation over there?"

"Commander, we encountered an enemy fleet on our way back."

"It was a small fleet of hundreds of ships, all of which were small frigates with high-speed maneuvers. I judged that this might just be the enemy's scout force."

Anderson can become the commander of the squadron, and he is also a high-ranking general at the brigade level. His analysis of the enemy situation is relatively reliable.

"Can we get rid of them?"

Wilson asked a nonsense question with a fluke mentality.

The ships of the Zerg Fleet are all built according to the specifications of large transport ships.

Even if the power system and engine equipment are specially strengthened, the overall shipbuilding level is there, and the cruising speed is just the level of ordinary combat ships of the same tonnage.

If you are targeted by a high-speed frigate, it is difficult to get rid of it by accelerating.

"The opponent is faster than us, and I can't get rid of them at all."

After answering Wilson's question, Anderson continued to ask: "Commander, what do you think next, should we annihilate them with all our strength, or leave a small number of ships to cover the rear?"

Each reorganized squadron of the Zerg has 10,000 ships, carrying more than 100 million void Zerg.

Wilson did not answer immediately, but through the mental network, he signaled the crew of the monocular worm in the bridge to export the star map and coordinate points.

"Your current position is too close to this forward base. At the normal sailing speed of the ship, it will arrive here in less than two days."

"It is only a matter of time before this forward base is found by the other party. Even if this scout force can be completely wiped out, it will not make much sense."

"Send a small number of ships to stop them from chasing, and the remaining large forces will return at full speed."

After weighing the pros and cons, Wilson issued this order.

Then, he also issued a return order to the commanders of other squadrons exploring outside.

The reconnaissance individuals scattered around the surrounding area and the optical sensors with ultra-long-range vision were also activated at full power.

"Great Lord, the humble Wilson prays for your attention..."

After completing a series of arrangements, Wilson did not forget to report the latest situation here to Han Fei through the line of faith and ask for his instructions.

Han Fei, who was working like crazy in the God's Domain, frowned after a little perception.

Then he used Wilson as the anchor point to cast the shadow of the God.

When the shadow solidified, Han Fei looked around and his eyes twitched slightly.

The various operating equipment in the command room of this base has very distinctive Zerg characteristics, and the button panels on the command desk are saved as much as possible.

All the equipment that can be controlled by mind through mental bridges has been modularized.

Both Wilson and the single-eyed worm are lying in a special nutrition cabin.

The whole command room looks like a morgue full of small coffins, and it's chilly.

The dim light, coupled with the purple-red fungal carpet attached to the wall, directly maximizes the gloomy, terrifying, and evil atmosphere. It doesn't need additional scenery to shoot a horror movie.
