My clan is super powerful

Chapter 318: Zerg Nest; Zerg Attack

I think the reason why Zixia didn't find this kind of bug when she supported other camps last time was precisely for this reason.

The information even speculates that the reason why those insects attacked human camps was most likely for the spiritual energy within the camps.

After reading the information, Zhang Zhi felt that this inference made some sense.

The exploration team had been exploring the wreckage of the world for some time, but they had never encountered bugs before.

If the insects were really craving for flesh and blood, they would not have ignored the monks who were exploring outside.

The bugs might be more craving for flesh and blood.

However, what they need most urgently right now are various energies, including spiritual energy.

It is unknown how long this Zerg group stayed on this energy-less remnant of the world.

Their energy reserves must have been depleted long ago.

It must be the energy fluctuations within the camp that attracted the attention of the Zerg.

If it weren't for the energy within the camp, the Zerg might not have noticed the Terran exploration at all.

No insects were encountered in previous explorations, which also shows that due to the lack of energy, the activity level of the Zerg must be very low.

The appearance of this bug made Zhang Zhi understand a question that he had never figured out before:
According to common sense, the ruins of the main world must be covered with countless Zergs, but Zixia had never found any trace of Zerg before!

This is precisely because the insects encountered this time are somewhat different from those Zixia had seen before.

Like most monks, these insects rely on energy such as spiritual energy to survive.

This is also the reason why the strength of this Zerg is much stronger than what Zixia has seen in ancient books.

He speculated that due to energy shortage, most of the insects, even the queen, were probably asleep at this time.

Only a small number of insects with special functions, such as those that can transport spiritual energy, are still active on this piece of wreckage.

Perhaps, that kind of insect may have been close to the camp before, and may even have stolen a lot of spiritual energy from the camp.

After stealing a lot of spiritual energy, those bugs used it to awaken some other bugs, which led to the last Zerg attack!
This also explains why there were a large number of cavities in the bodies of those insects when he dissected them last time.

It is very likely that they have been dormant for too long, resulting in muscle atrophy, or it may be because of energy shortage that their strength cannot be fully restored.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhiqing let out a sigh.

If those bugs were truly malnourished as a result of energy shortages, how powerful could they be at their peak?

Ok?
and also.

Zhang Zhi suddenly realized something else!

If that special insect is used to transport spiritual energy, then it must be carrying the spiritual energy back to the Zerg's nest. Therefore, if we find the traces of those insects, we may be able to find their nest!

After realizing this, Zhang Zhi stood up and walked around the palace several times. He turned to the monks at the palace gate and said, "Send someone to the wreckage right now and bring back Fairy Zixia."

"Just tell him I have something important to discuss with him, and ask him to come back as soon as possible."

After hearing Zhang Zhi's order, one of the monks on duty at the door bowed and said, "We will follow your command and leave immediately."

Zhang Zhi knew that even for a legendary cultivator to reach the camp closest to the small world, it would take at least two hours, so he did not wait in the conference hall. His figure flashed and appeared in the Han Kingdom.

At present, the Han Kingdom is the most martial country in the small world.

For this reason, more than half of the cultivators in the exploration team are from the fantasy path.

It was precisely because of this that the Han State suffered the most severe losses in these attacks on its camps.

Of course, a few hundred people are nothing to the current Han State.

However, due to the characteristics of the fantasy path, the Han Kingdom will definitely be the country with the largest number of sacrifices in the small world in the future.

After a tour of the Han Kingdom, fortunately, there is nothing in the Han Kingdom that deserves Zhang Zhi's attention.

The only point is that for cultivators on the path of fantasy, their demand for resources for cultivation is extremely high!

If one wants to make rapid progress in the cultivation of the mysterious and fantastic path, the consumption of elixirs, various spiritual fruits, and spiritual flesh is not a small number.

Since the small world is no longer distributed according to demand, the cultivation resources of the practitioners of the fantasy path must rely on themselves.

Therefore, the cultivators of the fantasy path can be said to be the poorest cultivators in the small world.

This is another important reason why the exploration team has so many cultivators from the mysterious and fantastical paths.

The exploration team is currently the highest-paid job in the small world, except for the formation master. At the same time, external exploration is also the only opportunity in the small world that can make people rich overnight.

More than two hours later, just as he was leaving the home of a recognized hero, Zhang Zhi sensed Zixia's presence within the small world. After locking onto Zixia's location with the boundary bead, he moved his mind and appeared beside her.

Zixia had already gotten used to Zhang Zhi's mysterious appearances in the small world.

After noticing Zhang Zhi appearing beside him, he turned around and asked, "You sent someone over here in a hurry, saying you had something urgent to talk to me about. What's the matter?"

Zhang Zhi told Zixia his previous speculations and guesses.

After listening to Zhang Zhi's speculation, Zixia pondered for a long time, and finally nodded slowly and said: "Your speculation should be correct!"

"It is very likely that this Zerg tribe is suffering from a shortage of energy, causing most of them to enter hibernation."

"I've seen similar records in ancient books. Some Zerg will indeed fall into a deep sleep when they lack food or energy, or when the external environment is unsuitable for survival."

"While falling into slumber, there will also be some sentinels remaining in the outside world, or non-combat Zerg collecting resources."

"As long as these sentinels or non-combat Zerg find enough blood or energy in the outside world, they will awaken a corresponding number of Zerg."

"So, those insects responsible for collecting energy are most likely sending the energy they collect to the insect lair, awakening a corresponding number of insects."

"Then continue attacking the camp to obtain more energy."

"So, if I follow the trail of those bugs, there's a good chance I'll find their nest."

Zhang Zhi replied, "If we can find their lair, even if it's just the lair of a branch, and kill the Zerg inside, I'll be able to buy enough time to develop."

"It's much easier to kill a sleeping bug."

At this point, he paused as if remembering something and asked, "I didn't see the number of Zerg in today's battle report."

"How many bugs attacked the camp this time? Logically, they attacked more than ten camps last time, so they should have collected a lot of spiritual energy, enough to awaken a large number of bugs."

Zixia was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then she realized something: "Not good! This attack is most likely a test by the Zerg. The number of Zerg in this attack is less than one-tenth of the last time."

"There must be a large number of Zerg waiting for an opportunity in the dark."

Having said this, he hurriedly said, "I have to go back and watch. Those bugs must be waiting for us to reveal a flaw before launching an attack."

"Also, after I'm done dealing with those Zergs, I'll follow their trails to find their lair."

Then the figure flashed and turned into a white light, shooting towards the direction of the wreckage of the world.

Looking at the white light disappearing in the sky, Zhang Zhi lowered his head and thought for a while.

If these Zergs really attacked the camp because of energy, should we cancel the rule of setting up spiritual energy formations in the camp?

After all, isn't this a bit like aiding the enemy?
After thinking for a while, he slowly shook his head!
I thought that there was not much spiritual energy in the camp. If those Zerg discovered the small world, it would be a disaster!

Rather than putting the small world in danger, it is better to use the camps on the wreckage to attract the Zerg's attention.

Let's just leave it at that for now, and delay it as long as possible. After all, beings like the Insect King and the Insect Queen must be very intelligent, and they will definitely infer through the exploration team that a small world has appeared nearby!

Also, if Zixia can find the nest of these insects and find a way to give them a hard time, it will definitely buy the small world a lot of time.

With a thought, he returned to the Han Kingdom again.

After inspecting the Han State, Zhang Zhi chose the Qin State as his next stop.

He spent a lot of time and energy on the Qin State's six paths of reincarnation.

After all, these are the six reincarnations that control the world after the death of living beings.

The current situation in Qin State is developing quite well.

Recently, he refined the Six Paths of Reincarnation technique which was not purple. Many practitioners of the Six Paths of Reincarnation have begun to try to communicate with evil creatures.

All the cultivators who died in the small world during this period are now being found by the cultivators of the Qin State.

After a tour around the underworld, I found that there were no major changes except that the area of the underworld seemed to have become a little bigger.

Just after coming out of the underworld, Zhang Zhi received another urgent intelligence from the Twelve Dynasties:
Traces of the Zerg were discovered in the void chaos not far from the small world!

When Zhang Zhi saw this news, his pupils suddenly shrank, and the next moment, he appeared in the meeting hall of the Twelve Dynasties.

Seeing His Majesty suddenly appear, someone in the conference hall immediately reported the relevant information.

After Zhang Zhi flipped through it, he figured out the whole story.

There had been an incident before where the remains of a world carrying evil things almost rushed into the small world from the chaos. In order to prevent such incidents from happening again, the small world deployed patrols in the chaos.

The traces of the Zerg were discovered by the patrol team in the chaos.
