Chapter 533: Flying Dragon
The spaceship emitting blue light was like a dazzling big light bulb, attracting the attention of the Zerg below.
When the Engineer and Ye Nan were negotiating, the bugs below had already made an attack move.
The bugs that were originally crawling on the ground, under some mysterious support, evolved one after another. In the blink of an eye, they turned into a flying unit with wings and flew out of the planet.
"Flying Dragon? No." Ye Nan noticed the Zerg's move on the holographic projection. He watched a warrior evolve, from the lowest-level bug to a medium-level Zerg, and break free from the planet's constraints.
This bug, which looked like a Flying Dragon on the outside, was actually much more ferocious than a Flying Dragon. At least a Flying Dragon wouldn't break through the atmosphere's constraints and fly in the universe.
The Engineer also noticed Ye Nan's move. He followed Ye Nan's gaze and only saw swarms of bugs flying out of the planet and flying toward this spaceship emitting blue light.
The ferocious appearance was clearly displayed in the holographic projection. It vividly displayed the cruelty and ruthlessness of the Zerg. At least from the outside, it was like this. "The Zerg have evolved." Ye Nan narrowed his eyes, looking at the Zerg below, a thought flashing in his heart, "Just after the merger, the strength of the Human Federation increased greatly, and these Zerg evolved. Where did the news of these bugs come from?"
If the Zerg relied on their own ability to sense life to find one civilization after another that had just walked out of the planet, then how did they know about the progress of civilization technology? Was there an inside agent in the Pan-Galactic Alliance, or did the Zerg themselves have a type of Zerg that could predict fate?
Ye Nan thought quietly. No matter which of these two answers it was, for Ye Nan, it was not good news because it meant that the Zerg knew the civilization level of his Space-Time Empire like the back of their hand.
Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle. But when the one who knows you and knows the enemy is the enemy, then Ye Nan's days would not be so easy.
Think about it. When he was still calculating the Zerg's power through various intelligence, the Zerg could already clearly and accurately sense his civilization level. This ability was simply terrifying.
"These stupid bugs." The Engineer took a casual glance and determined that there were no high-level Zerg figures among these bugs, so he breathed a sigh of relief. Then he became angry again because he found that these bugs were rushing toward his spaceship.
Instantly, a feeling of being offended by low-level creatures surged into his heart.
Facing high-level life like humans, the Prometheus race was in the role of a father. But facing biological weapons like Aliens, they were completely in the mindset of a master. A servant offending a master deserves to die.
Although these bugs were not Aliens, they were higher than Aliens. But in the Engineer's eyes, they still belonged to low-level creatures and were biological weapons that should be utilized.
"Ye Nan, do you know the name of this Zerg?" The Engineer asked.
Ye Nan took a glance at these Zerg that looked like Flying Dragons but didn't look like Flying Dragons, and said: "I don't know."
"Sure enough, ignorant." Seeing that Ye Nan didn't know, a sense of superiority arose in the Engineer's heart. Since he met Ye Nan, he had suffered setbacks one after another. Now seeing that Ye Nan also had things he didn't know, a sense of superiority rose up.
"They are called Flying Dragons, a type of low-level Zerg that can fly in the universe. In the flying units of the Zerg, their status is about the same as the warriors on the ground. However, because flying units are generally one level higher than ground units, the combat power of these Flying Dragons is quite considerable." The Engineer said triumphantly: "If they were allowed to rush toward the Human Federation, I'm afraid the Human Federation would be completely exterminated by them."
His implication was that you come and beg me. If you beg me, perhaps I will take action.
"Wanting to exterminate our Human Federation, just relying on these Flying Dragons is not enough." Ye Nan was dismissive of the Engineer's words. He knew the strength of the Human Federation very well. Not to mention anything else, just those Q-bombs, as long as they were used properly, could wipe these Flying Dragons from the universe. And they also had the Planet Destroyer Cannon, which could easily destroy the Zerg nest, Planet K.
"But this species is also called Flying Dragon. I don't know what relationship it has with the Flying Dragon in StarCraft. The appearance is so similar, although the abilities are not quite the same." Ye Nan thought to himself.
"Don't underestimate these Flying Dragons. The attack method of these Flying Dragons is to spray missiles. These missiles are composed of some microorganisms."
"These microorganisms can survive for a short time in a vacuum environment. When they approach the enemy, they explode rapidly. The toxic mist produced can decompose most substances. Like your spaceships without protective shields, as long as they are hit, they will definitely be finished." The Engineer continued to describe the terror of the Flying Dragons, scaring Ye Nan. "Spray missiles?" Ye Nan thought of the Flying Dragon in StarCraft again. The two were not only similar in appearance but also similar in attack methods. If this Flying Dragon was not that Flying Dragon, Ye Nan wouldn't believe it even if he were beaten to death.
"It looks like this Flying Dragon is the Flying Dragon in StarCraft. As for why it is much more powerful, it might be because of Harris's modification." Ye Nan thought to himself.
Zerg Lord Harris, as the Zerg Master, would definitely develop some Zerg that didn't exist in the movies. Like the Alien Mother, it was a biological weapon he snatched from the Prometheus race, so his improvement of the Flying Dragon didn't seem worth making a fuss about.
"In the future, when facing the Zerg, I must be careful, careful, and careful." Ye Nan raised his evaluation of the Zerg a little bit in his heart, and at the same time, expressed heartfelt mourning for the several high-level civilizations of the Pan-Galactic Alliance.
One could imagine what a miserable state they would be in when facing the Zerg that had plundered human technology. If there were no chosen ones among them, then the destruction of the Pan-Galactic Alliance was just around the corner.
"It's just that when the Pan-Galactic Alliance is destroyed, my days won't be easy either." Thinking of the overwhelming Zerg rushing into the solar system, constantly gnawing on Earth, Ye Nan couldn't help but shiver in his heart.
The number of Zerg was enough to fill the ocean. Even if those Zerg stood there and let him kill, he couldn't kill them all. He even suspected that the number of Zerg he killed was not as many as the number of Zerg born.
"How is it? Comparing the strength of the two, what do you think your chance of winning is?" The Engineer smiled. Ye Nan's contemplation turned into a comparison of the strength of the enemy and himself in his eyes.
"I still feel that our Human Federation can resist these Zerg." Ye Nan looked at the Flying Dragons that were getting closer and closer, a sneer flashing on his face, "However, before worrying about my Human Federation, you need to worry about yourself. The opening of the wormhole takes time, and you wouldn't want to lure these bugs to the sky above my Human Federation, would you? Be careful, I'll report you to the court."
From the observation, he also understood a weakness of the Flying Dragon, and that was that its speed was slow.
Perhaps its speed flying inside the planet was definitely not slow, and even with its speed, it could catch up with most prey. But this was the universe, and the speed here was calculated by the speed of light. In this way, their speed was not enough to look at.
From just now until now, a full ten minutes had passed. The fastest of these Flying Dragons had just touched the meteorite belt. To attack the spaceship, it would take another few minutes.
"The Flying Dragons are coming." The Engineer was a bit helpless. He really wanted to show his strength in front of Ye Nan, and he really wanted to eradicate these low-level bugs that offended him. At the same time, he didn't hope for the Human Federation to be exterminated, not only because of the orders of the Pan-Galactic Alliance but also because of some selfishness in his heart.
Although he was very disgusted with Ye Nan and even wished he could kill Ye Nan, he still had a good impression of the Human Federation, which was composed of humans. Although this good impression was a condescending good impression similar to alms.
"Forget it, I'll eradicate these bugs first." The Engineer made up his mind and said on the surface: "Well, since they are here, I'll help you. Let you see the viruses of our Prometheus race."
The Engineer reached out, inserted his hand into the spaceship, took out a small bottle, and threw it out.
"This feeling is..." Ye Nan's eyes flashed with brilliance. Whether it was the Engineer inserting his hand into the spaceship or throwing out the bottle, this ignored the barrier. It seemed to involve space technology to create a stable sub-space as a place to store items, like the legendary space ring and Qiankun bag. In theory, this was absolutely safe.
Seeming to feel Ye Nan's gaze, the Engineer turned around and said with a smile: "This is sub-space technology, a symbol of high-level civilization."
Space technology is always obscure and difficult to understand. Whether it is space jumping or sub-space technology, it involves very profound theories and is an important index for low-level civilizations to move toward high-level civilizations.
"However, I suggest you look at my means." The Engineer advised.
"Okay." Ye Nan turned his head and continued to pay attention to those Flying Dragons. In the holographic image, he saw the bottle explode in the air, and an unknown gas evaporated in the universe.
Soon, the body of a Flying Dragon close to the gas began to rot. That Flying Dragon rolled in the universe, but after a while, it turned into a corpse.
The moment this corpse appeared, the Flying Dragons that rushed over were like being greatly tempted, and began to turn their heads and fly toward the corpse. The Flying Dragon that flew to the side of the corpse first bit the corpse, ate the meat of the Flying Dragon corpse, and then turned into a corpse itself.
Just like this, the Flying Dragons followed the route of being attracted by the corpse, eating the corpse, rotting, and turning into a corpse, constantly repeating. At the same time, the number of dead Flying Dragons was also increasing in a geometric multiple. After a while, these Flying Dragons in the universe were all dead.
"This kind of virus is really powerful." Ye Nan praised, "However, how did you lure those Flying Dragons to eat the corpses of their companions?"
"Just a small trick." The Engineer said modestly, "As for how I lured them, it's just letting the virus emit a fragrance specifically targeted at Flying Dragons."
"Powerful, powerful." (To be continued.) ===== CHAPTER 534 =====
