Chapter 172 The Suffering Federation, the Watching Empire

In reality, the situation in the Federal Theater was even worse than Brother Dong described.

Wormholes of all sizes have sprung up not only throughout the Federation but also across the Empire.

But the Empire is in a better position than the Federation because they have Bayard.

Inside an Imperial spaceship, a group of people dressed in Imperial royal uniforms sat in comfortable chairs, holding fine wine, watching the battle on the planet and chatting merrily.

"Congratulations, Eugene, you have created a humanoid monster."

Eugene's eyes gleamed. On the screen, Bayard stood amidst the swarm of insects, directing one group of black beetles to fight against another.

The sudden appearance of the wormhole ironically became Bayard's training ground.

Eugene looked at Bayard with a mixture of satisfaction and criticism: "He fused with level two Zerg genes, but it's still not quite there yet."

Humans do not know exactly how many levels the Zerg are divided into; they can only rank them numerically based on what they have observed so far.

Tier 1 Zerg has no independent consciousness and is the lowest-level combat unit, unconditionally obeying the Zerg of the next higher tier.

The black beetle is the most common first-level insectoid.

Level 2 Zerg possess a degree of independent consciousness and can command a corresponding number of Level 1 Zerg based on their own capabilities.

Flying fat worms belong to level two.

As for the newly appeared [Void Devourer], people speculate that it should be at the same level as the octopus, belonging to level three.

The person sitting opposite Eugene picked up a small bite of cake with a fork, put it in his mouth, frowned, and showed a hint of displeasure: "Our Empire's own honey isn't as good as the Federation's. The cake doesn't taste as good as it used to."

After saying that, he casually pushed the cake aside, too lazy to even glance at it again.

Actually, the differences in honey are not as significant as he portrays. The differences in taste are not noticeable unless you taste them carefully.

Everyone expressed their understanding of his dislike and complained one by one.

"What was the Marshal thinking? Why did he have to shut down the black market? It's just a place the size of a fingernail, why waste the Empire's military strength?"

"Absolutely. If the black market still existed, we could buy as much honey and bunny-tailed girls as we wanted."

Eugene lowered his eyes, concealing the disdain within. These people were purely here to gain experience on the battlefield; they didn't understand what a tremendous opportunity and challenge the emergence of the Zerg was for humanity!
If he can completely control the Zerg, both the Federation and the Empire will submit to him!
Eugene stroked the scepter in his palm, his thin lips pressed tightly together, revealing a sharp shape.

Let Bayard scout ahead first. If he succeeds, I will stand at the pinnacle of humanity!

The group of idiots spoke with disdain and a hint of unconscious jealousy: "Eugene, how did you succeed? The fusion experiment failed a long time ago, didn't it? Starlife was also secretly conducting this research, and not only did it fail, it also attracted a lot of wormholes."

Numerous wormholes have appeared in the first, second, and third rings of the Federation.

An Imperial national treasure-level analyst analyzed the cause of this phenomenon and speculated that there was something wrong with the Zerg blood that Starshine Life took.

The Zerg have an extremely strong affinity for the blood of their own kind and can locate their location based on blood.

To verify this hypothesis, the Empire conducted experiments on 10 planets. It was ultimately proven that a certain active ingredient in the Zerg blood acted as a locator.

When the Zerg dies, this active ingredient also dies. Only by collecting blood from a living Zerg can the active ingredient be preserved.

The Starlife must have conducted live experiments, which is why the Federation's core star ring was located by the Zerg.

The Empire has always been wary of extraterrestrial life, and the fusion experiment site was kept confined to the periphery.

When Eugene was appointed as the project leader, everyone thought he had been rejected by the emperor and exiled to the frontier, with no chance of ever rising again.

Unexpectedly, fate played a cruel trick on us.

The Zerg launched a massive attack on humanity, and coincidentally, the fusion experiment succeeded. The Bayard proved more effective on the battlefield than a nuclear bomb!

How could this not arouse jealousy? Eugene noticed the emotions of the crowd, but he pretended not to know and said considerately, "It's probably because of the bloodline. Of the more than 123,000 test subjects, only Bayard is of the Golden Family bloodline, and he is also the only true fusion body."

The bloodline of the Golden Family?
A hint of surprise and covetousness flashed in everyone's eyes.

Humanity ventured into space from Tigray, and after a long period of time, eventually split into two political entities: the Federation and the Empire.

The Federation has four major golden families, while the Empire has a royal family and nobles.

Their blood can increase the success rate. What about royalty? What about nobles?

Looking at the various expressions on everyone's faces, Eugene's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.

Some people, amidst their desires, managed to retain a sliver of reason: "Shouldn't the Starshine Lifeforms have also experimented with the Golden Bloodline? Besides, did Lin Xiaohe fuse with the Zerg?"

Eugene frankly stated, "Starshine Life definitely did it, but those people are different from Bayard. Their jealousy and hatred towards Lin Xiaohe gave Bayard the will to fight to the death. As for Lin Xiaohe, she is not a fusion body; she merely possesses a low-level Zerg creature armor."

Everyone's eyes lit up instantly, widening as much as saucers.

They had all seen Lin Xiaohe's combat videos, where she walked through the void and wiped out half a space fleet with a single whip!

Even if they look down on people from the lower classes, they have to admit Lin Xiaohe's strength.

How could someone as powerful as Lin Xiaohe only possess a low-level Zerg armor?
If I had a level 2 Zerg armor, or became a level 3 fusion, wouldn't I be like a god?!

A surge of warmth flowed into everyone's hearts, making them tremble slightly with excitement.

……

Unlike the Empire's high command's covetous desire for the Zerg, the Federation deeply felt the Zerg's power.

The third star ring around the capital star is facing its greatest crisis in history.

The wormhole appeared directly above the First Payment Star Government Building!

Melina followed the crowd and, under the protection of the planetary guards, evacuated.

"Director, the car is ready." The secretary ran in front of Melina and quickly opened the car door.

Suddenly, Melina felt a chill run through her body.

She used all her strength to run desperately toward the speeding car.

The moment the car door closed, a black tentacle slammed down on the flying car.

The flying car drew an extreme arc in the air, narrowly avoiding the tentacles, accelerating to its maximum speed, leaving the wormhole far behind.

Inside the car, the secretary was deathly pale, her forehead covered in large beads of sweat.

He was so close to being killed by the black beetle!

Melina turned around. The wormhole above the government building was ominously dark, and huge black beetles were surging out of it.

The steel jungle that humanity was once proud of is nothing more than unpalatable food in the face of these black beetles.

They prefer human flesh and blood.

The staff who didn't manage to escape were strung together with tentacles and made into candied hawthorn skewers.

The entire capital planet was filled with agonizing wails and the stench of blood.

Melina clenched her fists tightly, her facial muscles twitching with rage.

Why does the capital planet have wormholes?!
