Those who reincarnate must die.

To guard the entrances and exits of the Starway, the Zerg have deployed a small hive suspended in space, housing over one hundred million Zerg, enough to temporarily repel any enemy invading from the Starway. During this time, the main hive can react promptly and deploy its main force to prepare for battle.

Normal... that's how it should be...

Facing the dense swarm of insects, Zhang Lang showed no fear, opening his mouth to unleash a devastating attack!

A dazzling red light pierced the universe, and wherever it passed, tens of thousands of Zerg were burned and vaporized.

Normally, the "Final Strike" skill should be considered a powerful single-target damage skill. While its power is strong, its damage range is only a straight line, typically causing a wound only one meter in diameter. It's an instant kill against ordinary people, but against giant monsters, it relies on penetrating damage to finish them off. Against large armies, its effectiveness is even lower.

However, this skill has a terrifying characteristic: its effect increases based on the user's attributes. This increase primarily affects power and range, with only a limited improvement in coverage area.

However, it's estimated that when this skill was first created, no one expected that it would one day be drawn by a monster with all attributes maxed out!

Now, when Zhang Lang unleashed his ultimate cannon at full power, it was a thick red beam several meters in diameter. Moreover, because of its long range, the energy cannon began to spread as it propagated. When it first shot out, it was indeed only three to five meters in diameter, but by the time it reached tens of thousands of kilometers away, it had spread to a thickness of several hundred meters. Although the power was weakened by the spread, it was still more than enough to eliminate the mere Zerg.

That's not all. Because of Zhang Lang's powerful attributes and extreme reaction speed, what would be a fleeting, deadly cannon shot to an ordinary person has a duration in his eyes!

While the red light was still lingering, Zhang Lang had time to turn his neck, and the massive cannon swept across a scarlet fan in space, instantly increasing the kill radius by more than a hundredfold!

With this shot, the swarm of insects that was originally densely distributed in space suddenly had a gap, as if someone had erased a line with an eraser.

In an instant, millions of insects turned to ashes.

Even with such terrifying losses, it was nothing to the fearless insects, and the remaining troops continued their fearless charge.

However, Zhang Lang's decisive shot was not just one.

The second shot was fired immediately. Drawing on the experience gained from the first shot in space warfare, Zhang Lang this time deliberately aimed and eliminated the larger, seemingly stronger individuals within the swarm as quickly as possible. Then, while turning, he even had time to trace curves, specifically targeting areas of high density and strength within the swarm!

A flash of red light appeared, and a twisted, vacuum-like area appeared in the swarm of insects.

In his third attack, Zhang Lang repeated the same tactic, eliminating another large number of Zerg.

With these three shots, millions of Zerg perished. However, compared to their total numbers of hundreds of millions, this was far from enough to fundamentally damage their existence.

But Zhang Lang had already lost interest in this place. He stepped into the air and transformed into a phantom, passing through the swarm of insects with lightning speed, without even bumping into a single insect.

Although we could fire the next lethal shot in a few seconds, there was no point in wasting energy here.

As a space mother hive, the number of Zerg deployed here is not large, but the variety is not many. They are basically all species specialized for space combat. After three shots, the high-level Zerg in the swarm have been wiped out, and the low-level ones have also been killed to the maximum extent. The remaining large number of cannon fodder is no longer worth wasting time on.

Zhang Lang's target has now become the mother nest behind the army.

This is equivalent to the Zerg stationed in space, with an incredibly sturdy outer shell, and there must be a queen Zerg inside responsible for command and reproduction!

Zhang Lang pierced through the mother insect's shell. As soon as he entered, he heard rustling footsteps coming from all directions. Then, a large number of giant insects, resembling armored spiders, scurried along the chitinous walls.

These are Zerg creatures I haven't seen in space; they must be specifically responsible for the internal defense of the hive. They lack the ability to move in space, but relying on the inner walls of the hive, they move extremely quickly and are stronger and more lethal than the Zerg outside.

Facing these guys, Zhang Lang pulled out his Tiger Roar and fired a few shots, taking down six of them. He then nodded in satisfaction.

A level 5 world, a score of 220, truly an elite!

Zhang Lang inserted Tiger Roar into his ammunition pouch and then pulled it out, before charging toward the insect hive.

Wherever they went, gunshots rang out incessantly, and giant insects exploded and died, leaving a green trail behind them...

With his full wood attribute, Zhang Lang quickly pinpointed the most distinctive sound in the insect nest. He broke through the walls and finally arrived at the core of the mother nest, where a huge insect, as big as a small mountain, was hanging. It had a swollen abdomen with dozens of oviducts branching out from the end like tree branches, each of which was laying an egg at a rate of one per second.

Needless to say, this must be the mother insect!

Upon seeing Zhang Lang intrude, the mother insect immediately launched an attack. It opened its mandibles, and the internal organs of its mouthparts vibrated rapidly, emitting a highly penetrating mental wave.

This mental power was so strong it seemed almost tangible, causing the inner walls of the mother nest to tremble slightly and even crack. However, Zhang Lang, who was directly in the brunt of it, seemed completely unaffected, simply raising his hand and firing a shot at the mother insect.

Tiger Roar's bullets whistled out, but when they reached a few meters in front of the mother insect, they were blocked by powerful mental energy and torn to shreds.

"Wow, amazing!" Zhang Lang's eyes lit up. At that moment, strange noises suddenly came from all around. Turning his head, he saw strange insects crawling out of the tunnel connecting to the core of the mother nest.

These insects weren't particularly large, each only seven or eight meters tall. They stood upright and looked somewhat humanoid, but each had six arms and was covered in a hard shell, making them look like giant monsters that were half insect and half human.

From these monsters, Zhang Lang sensed a powerful aura that none of the previous insects possessed.

"The Royal Guard?" Zhang Lang had seen some basic information about other races from Zhuge. Zhuge defined the Royal Guard as the most powerful known Zerg unit. They were usually only seen in large-scale battles. A single Royal Guard could easily destroy a third-tier heavy combat force of humans!

interesting!

Zhang Lang pulled the trigger at one of the guards. Just as the Tiger Roar bullet was about to hit, a cold light flashed, and with a snap, the bullet was sent flying and embedded deeply into the inner wall of the mother nest.

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed the long, segmented tail of the Imperial Guard!
