Crossing the stars, I live-streamed my cultivation in kindergarten

Chapter 393 Another Ability of the Newborn Zerg

The soldiers cleaning up the battlefield relayed the message back to their base that "low-level and mid-level Zerg may have found a way to advance to high-level Zerg."

Shi Yuan convened an important war meeting overnight.

The Sun Army and key generals of the Second Army Corps who came to provide support were all present.

Rin was also there. After hearing this important information, he forced himself to come out of the treatment pod and attend the meeting despite his injuries.

As the leader of this expedition, he has the longest contact with the Zerg and is therefore the most qualified to speak on the matter.

"Your Highness, it may be true. This batch of advanced insectoids appeared suddenly." This is also why Rin immediately led a team to eliminate the insectoids while Shi Yuan was injured and unconscious.

The adjutant who accompanied Shi Yuan in battle clearly said that His Highness had already wiped out all the advanced insectoid races on that planet, including the newly born insectoid race.

The remaining low- and mid-level Zerg can be wiped out with the cooperation of ordinary warriors.

However, Shi Yuan was only in a coma for two days when countless advanced insectoids suddenly appeared on the entire planet.

As Rin spoke, she became so excited that she couldn't help but tear open her newly healed wound, and blood gushed out.

"I also felt that those suddenly appearing advanced insectoids were somewhat familiar, but the situation was urgent, so I didn't think much of it. Now that I think about it, those advanced insectoids are inferior to the real advanced insectoids in both combat and defense."

“However… the difference isn’t that big.” Rin’s tone was somewhat heavy when she said the last sentence.

A moment of silence fell over the scene.

Odysseus, with a bitter expression, buried his head in bandaging Rin, the patient who didn't follow medical advice.

Normally, he would have already started cursing.

However, at this moment, he simply quietly reapplied medicine and bandaged Rin's wound, while holding Rin down to prevent her from moving around and reopening the wound.

General Shi Yifeng of the Sun Legion broke the silence: "The photos of this batch of Zerg corpses found on the battlefield have all been sent to your terminals. You can take a look and feel free to share your thoughts."

As he watched, Second Army Marshal Preston suddenly became agitated, slamming his fist on the table in anger. His rough voice echoed in the room: "Damn it, if this is how it is, then what's the point of us fighting?"

"The advanced Zerg are impervious to bullets and blades; even ordinary firearms can't penetrate their thick exoskeletons. This time, the number of advanced Zerg is manageable, but what if it doubles? Triples? Or even tenfold? You know, I'm not exaggerating; there are countless low-level Zerg in interstellar space, appearing in the hundreds of millions each time. If they all transform into advanced Zerg, we frontline warriors will only be sent to our deaths!"
Whether it's the Sunlit Legion or our Second Legion, at least one-fifth of our warriors are unable to fight these Zerg, and another three-fifths, even against higher-level Zerg, would be severely wounded if not killed! In total, only one-fifth of the warriors from both legions are capable of fighting these Zerg!

"It would be better to just activate the ultimate plan and blow up this entire star system, wiping out these damned Zerg!"

Preston delivered a passionate speech, expressing his views.

Many soldiers were moved by his words and began to consider retreating.

“Yes, Your Highness, it would be better to activate the ultimate plan directly, seal off this star field, and then bring these Zerg corpses back to the Imperial Star to study them slowly before making any further plans.”

"I agree too!"

"That's right, there's no need to make unnecessary sacrifices!"

It goes without saying that a general's soldiers reflect the general's character.

The soldiers under Preston in the Second Army shared the same idea.

This angered the generals and senior soldiers of the Sun Army.

"Activate the ultimate plan directly? You all know that once the ultimate weapon is deployed, not a single planet in this star system will survive. Furthermore, no new planets will be born for at least ten thousand years. Most terrifyingly, the energy released from the ultimate weapon will cause X matter to increase rapidly. This star system will ultimately become a true wasteland." "You bunch of idiots, you're going to take the Zerg corpses back to study them slowly? Holy crap, do you even know how many low-level Zerg there are in the entire interstellar space?"

"Do you know how many Zerg are born each year? Do you know that a newly hatched larva, given enough energy, can transform into a mature Zerg in a very short time?"

"Do you even know that each time a low-level Zerg spawns, it lays tens of thousands of eggs! If we just keep retreating, our Orcs will eventually be driven out of their living space by the Zerg! So we must take this opportunity to find out the reason for the Zerg's advancement and find a way to stop it!"

Preston slammed his fist on the table in anger: "You yourselves said that every time the low-level Zerg hatches, it's tens of thousands. Maybe by tomorrow, this entire star system will have hundreds of millions of low-level Zerg! If we don't leave, both legions will ultimately face certain death!"

As Preston spoke, his eyes reddened, and his mental energy began to radiate outwards.

As a level 10 SS-rank warrior, his mental strength was so great that the warriors present who were of lower rank than him had to shut their mouths.

However, the next moment, Shi Yuan's spiritual power pressed down on him with precision, like Mount Tai.

Shi Yuan said coldly, "Preston, you've crossed the line."

As he spoke, he increased the intensity of his mental energy output.

Until Preston was pale, sweating profusely, and swaying precariously.

"I apologize, Your Highness, I was just too excited."

Shi Yuan then looked away from him.

"We are not at our wits' end yet. I will not allow any warriors under the Empire to flee without a fight. Anyone who disobeys will be executed without mercy!"

His voice wasn't as loud as the orcs' earlier argument, but the killing intent in his words seemed tangible, sending a chill down the spines of the warriors present.

Those orcs who were clamoring to retreat ended up in the same state as Preston.

Shi Yuan then withdrew his mental energy.

"Starting today..."

Shi Yuan stopped speaking halfway through his sentence, and his eyes suddenly changed.

Rin's heart skipped a beat.

It is His Highness Jiang Youan.

Fearing that Jiang Youan might say something that would arouse Preston's suspicion, he quickly said, "Your Highness!"

Jiang Youan turned to look at him.

Lin said anxiously, "Your Highness, you were seriously injured before and have led your warriors into the battlefield again. Let Lord Odysseus examine you!"

Rin stomped hard on Odysseus, who was applying medicine and bandaging his wounds for the second time, signaling him to cover up.

Their Sun Legion consists of warriors of unwavering resolve, loyal and trustworthy.

However, the Second Legion is a different story.

Odysseus looked up and was dumbfounded.

Holy crap, how did this little devil get out here?!
