Worker Bee: The Insectoid Clan's gatherer, suitable for any resource collection operation. It possesses second-tier physical capabilities and first-tier mental capabilities. Incubation requires 1 larva, 50 biomass, and 15 seconds. It can evolve further.
Overlord: Can expand the Insectoid Clan's line of sight, detect enemy traces in advance, and transport Zerg units by flight. It also provides mental links for Zerg units outside the Creep. It possesses first-tier physical capabilities and second-tier mental capabilities. Incubation requires 1 larva, 100 biomass, and 30 seconds. It can evolve further.
Zergling: Possesses extremely fast movement speed and extremely high combat capability. Due to an unusually simplified genetic structure, each larva can incubate two Zerglings. It easily forms large-scale Zerg combat groups. It possesses second-tier physical capabilities and first-tier mental capabilities. Incubation requires 1 larva, 50 biomass, and 20 seconds. It can evolve further.
After Lin Fan finished reading the unit information, the Worker Bee had already hatched and crawled in front of him.
The Worker Bee, an Insectoid Clan unit similar to a scorpion, has two huge pincers and several claws on both sides of its body. Between each claw, webbed wings grow, enabling them to generate magnetic levitation. The digestive fluid in its stomach can soften most substances and filter out Impurities.
Following the Worker Bee, the Zerglings hatched.
Zerglings possess Sharp Claws, sharp fangs, and unpredictable back stabs. Their flexible tails provide balance for their explosive hind legs, allowing them to change direction almost instantly and wear down enemies to death.
Two Zerglings stood before Lin Fan. These creatures were unprecedented; the evolution of their body structure was entirely for killing.
After countless eons, the Zergling continued to be the Initial Zerg unit, eliminating all competitors, which shows the value of this biological weapon.
Suddenly, four wild wolves burst out of the jungle.
This area belongs to a national forest park, where fierce beasts like jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards are wild-bred. Lin Fan chose this place precisely because human traces are rarely seen here.
Possessing the Blacklight Virus, Lin Fan could easily kill these wild wolves, but they were perfect for testing the Zergling's combat strength.
"Kill the wild wolves."
Lin Fan waved his hand, and the Zerglings immediately ran out, pouncing on the four wild wolves.
These wild wolves had not eaten for several days. Seeing the Zerglings pounce, their ferocity was further ignited, and they met the attack head-on.
However, in Lin Fan's eyes, the wild wolves possessed only first-tier physical capabilities; even if their numbers were doubled, they would only be crushed by the Zerglings.
The two Zerglings separated, one to the left and one to the right, appearing to scatter, but actually to prevent the wild wolves from escaping.
The wild wolves' running speed was originally extremely fast, but suddenly they found something underfoot, like glue, making every step difficult and greatly exhausting their physical strength.
Lin Fan smiled. Besides providing extra bonuses to the Zerg's movement speed and regeneration ability, the Creep also reduces the movement speed of non-Zerg creatures.
Apparently, the wild wolves had not anticipated this ability of the Creep. Their momentum was broken, and with further delay, they were pounced upon and killed by the Zerglings.
The Zergling's Claws were extremely sharp. Even though wolves are known for their 'copper heads and iron brains,' it couldn't stop the Zergling's Claws from pinning its skull to the ground.
The four wild wolves were just an appetizer; the Zerglings easily killed these targets.
Then, the Worker Bee crawled over to collect the wild wolves' corpses.
These wild wolves provided Lin Fan with an additional 40 biomass.
It is known that the Zerg can obtain essence by devouring corpses.
essence can allow the Zerg to advance.
However, this substance is difficult to preserve.
It rapidly disappears after leaving the corpse!!
Therefore, it can only be absorbed on the spot.
However, Lin Fan currently lacks biomass more than anything else.
So he gave up on having the Zerglings devour the corpses, and the essence quality was extremely high; even if the Zerglings absorbed it on the spot, it would be a drop in the bucket.
After the wild wolf interlude, Lin Fan turned his attention to the newly hatched Overlord, a terrifyingly large insect.
However, it was only terrifying in size.
The Overlord's appearance is more like a hot air balloon, with internal cavities for transport, capable of surviving in space. Its body is covered with developed visual structures, allowing it to scan a wide range of vision in all directions without blind spots.
At the same time, the Overlord has numerous tentacle structures on its body, which allows them to mentally link with the Zerg.
After sending the Overlord into the sky, hidden in the clouds, Lin Fan connected to the Overlord's vision and found that almost everything within a two-and-a-half-kilometer radius was within his sight. Ants crawling, spiders preying, even sand rolling—nothing, no matter how small, escaped his eyes.
Izsha then softly reminded him, "Dominator, we urgently need sufficient resources to develop the Zerg. After the Worker Bees' reconnaissance, resources are extremely scarce nearby. Please decide the next course of action."
"Conduct destructive harvesting. Do not miss any available resources." Lin Fan planned to raise a Zergling army to conquer the Saint Petersburg Biochemical Research Base and quickly obtain the reward for the Digger, a Worker Bee variant.
Because the Digger has many uses, such as digging to create ground traps, moving the Initial Zerg Base, reinforcing rock strata barriers, and infiltrating deep into the earth to search for energy resources.
energy blocks are key to the second-tier Zerg Base.
Second-tier Zerg Base: Requires 10,000 biomass, 1,000 energy blocks, and 1,000 seconds. Possesses fourth-tier physical capabilities and fourth-tier mental capabilities. Can evolve further. Accompanied by 10 Heavy Spine Stalkers as counter-attack means. (Unlocking units: Spine Crawler, Hydralisk, Banelings.)
