Chapter 669: Sneak Attack on "Friendly" Positions
Following the mantis is the low-level ranged scorpion of the Zerg. Like the mantis, the scorpion has the same appearance as the original Zerg troop, but its range has increased by 10%. The bone spur shells have added corrosion ability after the explosion.
The larvae of the tank worm hatched behind the scorpion. Because of its huge size, the larvae will continue to devour food and grow.
In addition to these classic troop types, Li Mingze also created some plasma worms and channel worms for experiments.
Due to the limited number of hatching capsules in the hatchery, Li Mingze can only split out nine more fission bodies.
These nine fission bodies will go to suitable places in various parts of the plain to be transformed into hatching centers.
And they will take on the task of collecting nearby Zerg corpses and transforming them into new Zerg.
In just two days, the Zerg corpses on the entire battlefield have disappeared, replaced by 100,000 mantis worms and 100 channel worms.
Some people may wonder why Li Mingze only created the lowest-level soldiers and channel worms, and only built a few intermediate Zergs such as plasma worms for research and data collection.
In fact, Li Mingze had other considerations. If the number of intermediate Zergs was too large, it would definitely cause tension among commanders on other battlefields.
Moreover, the advanced units of the Zerg are aimed at other civilizations. If Li Mingze intends to start a civil war, the role that the intermediate and advanced Zerg units can play is limited.
A few hours later, Li Mingze and 100,000 Zergs stood in the center of the plain.
Just now, he had obtained the distribution map of Zergs on the surrounding battlefields through the Imperial Fleet in orbit. Next, he planned to lead the Zergs to turn the surrounding Zergs into nutrients for creating new Zergs.
Li Mingze's main body remained in the lobby base of the underground research center, and his split body went into battle.
Li Mingze did not say anything to these Zerg soldiers, who did not have independent consciousness. He just had a thought, and 100,000 Zergs rushed into the bodies of 100 channel worms respectively.
After all the mantis bugs were loaded, a hundred channel bugs drilled into the ground at the same time and rushed to the nearest battlefield.
In a canyon more than a hundred kilometers away from the plain where Li Mingze was located
Hundreds of fighter planes roared through the air, and the poisonous scorpions on the ground kept spraying bone spur shells at the aerospace fighters in the sky.
However, these bone spur shells had little effect, and the sporadic shells were easily avoided by the fighters.
The fleet immediately lowered its altitude after discovering that the Zerg's anti-aircraft firepower was already very weak, and began to use machine guns to clear the poisonous scorpions on the ground.
But at this time, tens of thousands of poisonous scorpions drilled out from the ground and aimed the bone spur shells at the sky.
The fighter planes in the sky were shocked. It didn't matter if they were attacked by bone spur shells. Their mobility could avoid these shells, but above their heads, the second batch of landing troops were airborne!
The Zerg on the ground obviously also discovered the imperial troops that were airborne, so they used all their resources to hatch long-range troops and prepare to intercept the imperial troops in the air.
Suddenly, the ground shook violently! One hundred channel worms suddenly broke through the soil on the ground and rushed into the air, losing potential energy in mid-air and falling to the ground.
Then 100,000 mantis worms rushed into the Zerg position from the mouths of these one hundred channel worms.
The Zerg commander on the battlefield was confused and had no idea of the current situation. Under the nervous gaze of the Zerg commander, these new Zergs just ran into the battlefield in a scattered manner and did not attack the Zerg passing by on the way.
The Zerg commander shook his head. He was really overthinking. Even if he lost contact with the queen mother, it was impossible for the Zerg commander to want to rebel. Could it be that this group of Zerg troops that suddenly appeared came to reinforce them?
However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw Li Mingze appear on the battlefield.
The moment he saw Li Mingze's figure, the Zerg commander was suddenly shocked. Li Mingze's appearance was completely different from that of the Zerg commander!
But even if he found it, it was too late. The new Zerg mantises scattered in the Zerg position had already scattered to the side of those scorpions and ordinary mantises.
Before these scorpions and mantises could react, he used the bone blade in his hand to pierce through them!
In an instant, the Zerg controlled by the Zerg commander was slaughtered by a huge number of 100,000! There were not many Zergs on the battlefield, and a lot of resources were used to hatch more expensive scorpions.
After the imperial fighter plane hovering in the air saw what was happening on the ground, the pilot smiled and led the fleet back into the air.
Their goal has been achieved, that is, to attract the attention of the Zerg for Li Mingze, so that he can directly enter the battlefield and pretend to come to support.
The imperial troops that were airborne were just filled with nutrient solution for Li Mingze's supplies, and there were no soldiers on board!
At this time, the swarm controlled by Li Mingze had already fought with the Zerg soldiers.
Although the armor strength and bone blade strength of the new Zerg created by Li Mingze were not much stronger than ordinary Zerg, even if they were slightly stronger, they played a huge role on the battlefield!
Many times, the bone blade of an ordinary mantis would get stuck after being inserted into the bone armor of a new mantis, and then be killed by the new mantis.
The bone blade of the new mantis is stronger than that of ordinary mantis insects, so it will not get stuck after piercing the body of ordinary mantis insects, just like cutting tofu, it can easily cut their shells.
In just over ten minutes, the low-level Zerg on the battlefield have been wiped out.
The swarm of Zerg controlled by Li Mingze has gathered to surround the base camp of the Zerg commander on the battlefield.
The dark swarm of Zergs blocked the underground passage tightly, and opposite the swarm of Zergs were several rows of tank worms and plasma worms flashing blue light behind them.
"Why did you betray the Queen Mother? When the Queen Mother's fleet defeats the civilizations surrounding us outside, you will never survive!"
"Don't be lucky! If you surrender now, I can promise not to report this to the Queen Mother!" The Zerg commander stood on the head of a plasma worm and pointed the bone blade at Li Mingze and shouted.
Hum, Li Mingze sneered and turned around, and countless mantis insects immediately rushed towards the Zerg commander like a tide.
The 80,000 or so surviving new mantis worms instantly overwhelmed the few tank worms and plasma worms.
Soon, the tank worms rushed out of the swarm, twisting wildly, trying to throw away the mantis worms crawling all over their bodies!
