Chapter 10: Zerg Base
'System, is it enough ma?' Su Yu asked in his heart.
[Of course! It's already enough!] The system answered hurriedly, and the mechanical voice revealed a bit of pain. It couldn't help but said with heartache [King, just a little blood is enough, not so much.] It's just a lowest-level Zerg base, how can King bleed so much!
The system originally didn't want to tell how to use blood to build a Zerg base, but Su Yu didn't know how to use mental power, and Su Yu's energy was not enough to build a Zerg base out of thin air, so it could only settle for the second best, build a low-level base first.
Low-level Zerg Base have advantage and disadvantage. The disadvantage is that the base level is low, and Zerg hatched will only be low-level, so it can't be very powerful. The advantage is that the energy required to build a low-level base is also very low, the construction is also ten points simple and easy.
Just like Su Yu's 'self-mutilation' just now, he was actually using blood to transform into a low-level base. The system said that when Su Yu becomes stronger, he only needs one drop of blood to easily build a low-level base. This shows how fast and powerful the Zerg can reproduce as long as the conditions are sufficient.
Su Yu didn't know that the system secretly felt distressed, but even if he knew, he wouldn't feel anything.
According to the recovery ability of the Zerg, skin and flesh injuries only take three seconds. Even if limbs are broken, or near death, as long as the energy is sufficient, they can survive and grow limbs again. This is what the system once said to Su Yu, but Su Yu didn't feel deeply at that time, so he didn't care. Until this moment, touching his wrist that had recovered smoothness, he finally had a real feeling about the recovery ability of Zerg.
During the time when Su Yu was distracted, the area of the small pool of blood on the ground had expanded to dozens of times the original size, and the color was no longer as bright as before, with a little dark color.
Such a pool of blood had a great visual impact, but when Su Yu looked at this scene, a strange feeling surged in his heart. If there was a need to describe it, it would be the word 'intimate'. At this moment, Su Yu seemed to see many strange-looking creatures in the blood pool, which were beautiful, ugly, cute or twisted, and seemed to hear a soft and invisible voice whispering something in his ear.
Bewitched by the picture and the voice, his vision was dazed for a moment.
Fortunately, Su Yu did not completely indulge and regained consciousness.
He got rid of this strange invisible feeling, but there were more memories in his mind that did not belong to him. These extra memories were not other things, but the creatures he saw in trance just now, and the content of the voice.
This is...? These strange things were seen after the blood pool was formed, so they must be related to Zerg.
Su Yu asked the system directly.
[This is the inheritance memory of Zerg Queen, which contains information about all Zergs...] The system's voice was a little hesitant [However, it seems that you have only opened a low-level base now, so the inheritance memory received is not complete, and only contains information about low-level Zergs.]
Su Yu quickly flipped through this extra memory.
'Does it take energy to hatch Zergs? '
[Yes.]
Su Yu frowned slightly. The energy on Earth is still too thin, so there is little energy in the jade. Even if he consumed a lot during this period, the energy accumulated is not much. Opening a low-level Zerg base has already consumed most of it, and it is unknown how many Zergs can be hatched with the remaining energy.
'Among these low-level Zergs, which ones require less energy to hatch?' Su Yu asked the system.
[...] The system rarely didn't answered immediately, but paused for a few seconds and replied [Please wait.]
After saying this, the system disappeared.
While waiting, Su Yu came to the blood pool and looked at it carefully... The conclusion he came to was that low-level Zerg base was indeed simple... It was called a base, but in fact, there was nothing else except this blood pool.
So the difference between the high and low-level Zerg bases is not in appearance, but in the difference between the energy pools? Su Yu's idea was not bad, because the system told him that for Zerg, in a Zerg base, only the energy pool was the most important thing, everything else could be give way.
Half squatting down, Su Yu put his hand into the blood pool. It didn't have the sticky feeling of blood as imagined, but it was just like ordinary clear water, just a different color, icy and cool, unexpectedly comfortable.
[King, I'm back!]
The system popped up, almost at the same time, a strange interface appeared in Su Yu's mind.
[King, I have materialized all the energy in your body, and the energy needed to hatch different Zergs!] The monotonous mechanical sound could not cover up the tone full of asking for credit. If it could be materialized, the system would probably circle around Su Yu while wagging its tail.
Hearing this, Su Yu's consciousness quickly scanned the interface.
[Bee Mosquito: Energy required 10]
[Flower Explosion Bug: Energy required 20]
[Soldier Worker Ant: Energy required 50]
[Blood Fantasy Spore: Energy required 10]
[Mantis: Energy required 100]
[Mud Worm: Energy required 20]
After reading the table list on the screen, Su Yu's eyes moved to the energy he had in the upper right corner.
[Energy posseded 120]
The overall visual effect of this interface made Su Yu suddenly have an illusion that he was playing a game, but it must be said that the interface made by the system is very good. The energy required to hatch the Zerg is clear at a glance. Even if it is not accurate, it should not be much different.
Abandoning the strange feeling in his heart, Su Yu began to analyze these low-level Zergs. Not long after, he made a decision and chose to hatch two bee mosquitoes, two flower explosion bugs, one mud worm and two blood fantasy spores. These added up to exactly 100 energy, there were 20 energy left for him to consume.
'How long does it take to hatch?' Su Yu asked.
[The hatching time is based on the energy that the blood pool can provide. According to the energy supplied by the low-level base, the hatching time should be between one and two hours.] The system said.
Then during the hatching period, check the house first ba.
That's right, house.
The place where Su Yu is hiding now is one of the houses scattered on both sides of the street just now. Because these houses look similar in appearance and there is not much difference, he randomly found a house with the most remote location as a hiding place.
This place called mechanical maze has houses that look a bit similar to those on Earth, but unlike houses in China, the style is more like wooden houses in the suburbs of foreign countries.
When Su Yu hid in, he only took a cursory look at the interior of the house. He did not search in detail. He just wanted to make sure there were no people hiding inside. Now that he had some free time, he checked it carefully.
After walking around the house, Su Yu found that the electrical appliances and furniture inside were all available, including water, electricity, food and other daily necessities. It was as if someone had cleaned it in advance and was ready for people to move in at any time.
For Su Yu, who was going to use this house as a base, it was really considerate.
Thinking of this, Su Yu's heart suddenly jumped, then two faint consciousness appeared in his mind.
This is...? !
Su Yu turned back to the blood pool. As expected, there were Zerg that hatched. The first to hatch were two bee mosquitoes. As the name suggests, the two bee mosquitoes were the size of bees. The whole body was bluish-white, but there was a little light red on the mouthparts.
When he came back, two bee mosquitoes were circling aimlessly above the energy pool. When he walked in, the two bee mosquitoes stopped immediately. Su Yu had an inexplicable feeling of being watched. He came to the energy pool and raised his hand. The bee mosquitoes followed Su Yu's wishes, flew over obediently and landed on Su Yu's palm.
The appearance of the bee mosquitoes is not really cute, especially for those creatures that are loved by mosquitoes in summer, they are even more disgusting and wish they could kill them directly.
Su Yu is also one of the sufferers, so he didn't like mosquitoes.
But now, looking at these two little things, Su Yu felt a little happy and curious in his heart, even gently touched the wings of the bee mosquitoes, feeling a soft yet tough touch.
According to the inheritance memory, the bee mosquito belongs to low-level Zerg, has no attack power, its defense is only medium, which is not strong at all. However, in the Zerg army, bee mosquito is an indispensable Zerg species because it serves as a Zerg reconnaissance patrol. The bee mosquito can share its vision with other Zergs at the same time, no matter how far away. In addition, it has another advantage, that is, it can adjust its breath, shape, color, etc., so as to hide in the surrounding environment, which is equivalent to a chameleon, but has a stronger camouflage ability than a chameleon.
'Go ba. ' Su Yu raised his hand.
Two bee mosquitoes flew up in response, flew out of the window, then flew in different directions. They will be responsible for reconnaissance of the surrounding situation, and report to the Queen if they find any abnormality.
Su Yu tried to connect the vision of one of the bee mosquitoes. It was an extremely strange feeling. The vision seemed to be cut into two, one side was what belonged to his sight, and the other side was what belonged to the sight of the bee mosquito. They did not interfere with each other, the scenes on both sides were ten points clear.
Su Yu curiously connected the vision of the two bee mosquitoes together. It felt not much different. It just divided the vision into three parts... The only disadvantage is that it will make people feel a little uncomfortable after a long time. What if there are more bee mosquitoes?
[When your mental power becomes higher, it will be easy to control more Zerg.] The system explaned.
During the time of testing the bee mosquitoes, the remaining Zergs in the energy pool also hatched one after another, crawled out of the energy pool, and quietly came to Su Yu's feet, waiting.
Su Yu looked down and saw two colorful flower explosion bugs at first glance. It was indeed the same as in the inheritance memory. The bugs were shaped like flowers, and the flowers were different. Then he saw two blood fantasy spores that looked like white balls of plush toys, and finally... a gray-brown mud worm covered with mucus.
