Chapter 458
Oh! No, that's wrong. It should be the main planet of the Zerg, the Zerg homeworld is not here.
The location of the Zerg homeworld Zerus, the Dark Templar Zeratul should know the exact location, and this planet is also a treasure land, because it bred the most terrifying race in the universe, the Zerg.
If the Zerg commander were normal, not like the Overmind who sought death wholeheartedly, then the Protoss race would have no chance of winning at all.
I don't know why, but Luode suddenly had a whimsical idea, wanting to see what would happen if the demons of the Burning Legion came to this world.
But this seems to be nothing but fun, with no other use! "Lord Luode! The entire Zerg swarm will submit beneath your feet, and they will welcome a new overlord.
Under your leadership, the Zerg swarm will surely march toward a more glorious peak, I firmly believe in this." Agatha spoke.
Although they have only been born for a few years, these queen bugs possess high wisdom and strategic vision; when the Blade Queen created them, she endowed them with considerable wisdom, far stronger than the brain bugs created by the Overlords.
So he clearly knows, following this person before him who can casually create a star extractor, just how worthwhile and promising it is.
"Hahaha, I truly hope the other queen bugs are as sensible as you; you can now begin producing your own troops?" Luode asked.
However, it doesn't matter; if they refuse to become enlightened, then I will find a way to make them submit, after all, it's just a matter of a glance—Luode can easily control a queen bug, and once he controls the queen bug, the Zerg army under his command will be his.
"Yes, Lord Luode, if you need an army, I have the complete evolution chain of all Zerg unit types in my hands.
With this star energy extractor, our energy can be said to be inexhaustible and endless.
As long as you have need, in just a few days I can hatch for you an immensely vast army." Queen Bug Agatha spoke.
"Then let us first take over the flagship of the Blade Queen; I recall that on that Leviathan battleship there was an Evolution Master named Abathur, whose genetic modification ability is very strong." Luode spoke.
"Correct, Lord Luode, Abathur is indeed a genetic modification master; if he is alive, recruiting him into our ranks would be an excellent choice." Agatha nodded and spoke.
Other than that, there's nothing much, but this genetic map modification master is indeed a rare talent, and even his modification ability can be said to be the strongest existence in the entire Zerg swarm.
Back then, the Blade Queen's modification work was completed by him; the design and modification of many Zerg unit types, as well as mutant evolution, were all carried out by him.
"Agatha, you stay on this Leviathan; I will transfer the usage rights of the Titan Furnace to you, and you will now immediately begin hatching the Zerg army.
I am now going to find that purification master Abathur." Luode spoke.
"Rest assured, great master, the command you have given is my heavenly duty; I will immediately begin hatching larvae, then let them grow into your army." Agatha lowered her body, kneeling on one knee before Luode, and spoke.
Luode nodded, bringing the Subar Star Official, utilizing spatial transfer ability directly to arrive at Char planet, and then quickly locked onto the former base of the Blade Queen, the Leviathan battleship.
This Leviathan battleship is now extremely empty. Inside the battleship, there are only scattered and sparse Zerg larvae, but these larvae, facing Luode's powerful spiritual power, have absolutely no resistance; they are controlled the instant they see Luode.
This is the strength of dark divine power—any existence weaker than Luode, as long as Luode wishes, cannot escape his control.
Even his own dark energy can turn an ordinary life form into a void creature.
Why not use his own dark divine power to strengthen these Zerg, to see the effect?
Or rather, bring some insect demon genes from the Journey to the West world into this world, to see what Abathur can modify.
Soon Luode arrived at the core area of this Leviathan battleship; a female with a form somewhat like a combination of human and Zerg larva stood silently there.
"Outsider, you are entering the core territory of the Zerg; why hasn't the external Zerg swarm attacked you?" Izsha spoke.
It's strange—this creature before me looks human? It resembles a human exactly, yet it is not a human.
The energy fluctuations on his body are even stronger than those of the mightiest Protoss, even stronger than the Blade Queen.
The Blade Queen, on her flagship, still arranged many Zerg guards; ordinary beings cannot simply stroll leisurely to the core area of this battleship.
"From today on, I am the master you must serve; I recall your name is Izsha, correct?" Luode looked at the Zerg female before him and asked.
After the Blade Queen took control of the Zerg, she created many humanoid life forms, such as queen bugs, and such as each Leviathan battleship being equipped with a adjutant, similar to human artificial intelligence.
However, the Zerg adjutants created by the Blade Queen are a form of life, and can also connect to the Zerg swarm network like the brain bug Overlords.
During the Blade Queen's absence, she is the true master of this Leviathan battleship, or rather, the entity of this Leviathan battleship.
"I am loyal to the Blade Queen."
"Now this must be changed; from now on, you are loyal to me, Luode." Luode had no intention of wasting words with the Leviathan battleship adjutant before him, and directly used a single spiritual control to subdue the other party.
Now the Sharingan, Rinnegan, and whatever transmigrating eyes have been completely integrated into Luode's eyes; all their abilities can be used, and their power is stronger and more effective.
In just an instant, the adjutant of this Leviathan battleship, or rather the controller, has had their consciousness completely controlled by Luode.
"Respected master, Izsha greets you, welcome to the Leviathan battleship." The Zerg intelligence adjutant bowed to Luode and spoke.
"Besides you, are there any other high-ranking Zerg on this Leviathan battleship? Those with self-awareness?" Luode asked.
"Great master, besides me, there is also a genetic modification master; he resides year-round in the hatching pool; if you need to modify Zerg troops or create some new Zerg unit types, then finding him is correct." Adjutant Izsha spoke.
"I understand; you said Abathur will be loyal to me?" Luode asked.
"Of course he will; Abathur serves only the Zerg swarm, he does not concern himself with other matters, nor does he ask about them; he only enjoys conducting genetic experiment modifications." Izsha spoke.
"I understand; take me to the hatching pool, I want to see this genetic modification master; Subar, you stay here." Luode spoke.
Subsequently, some genetic modification matters, Luode did not want this heavenly court's star official to see, so he decided to leave him here.
"Yes, Wutian Fazhu, subordinate obeys." The Subar Star Official nodded at Luode and said.
Luode nodded, and under the guidance of the interstellar adjutant, quickly arrived at the core hatching area of the Leviathan battleship; here there is a strangely appearing giant Zerg larva busy at work.
"Research, cells, proliferation, evolution, reproduction." The giant Zerg larva stood before the hatching pool, muttering to itself.
"Abathur! The Blade Queen has already disappeared; now I lead the Zerg swarm, do you have any opinions?" Luode asked.
"Just now, Abagatha has already transmitted your information to you; you are immensely powerful, beneficial to the Zerg swarm, I am willing to be loyal to you." Abathur spoke. He has served the Zerg Overlords, also served the Blade Queen, now serving this man before him is also no problem.
"I actually forgot this! I heard you are very skilled at modifying organisms? I have a new method to modify the Zerg, I want you to see the effect." Luode spoke.
"Lord Luode, can I have some of your flesh and blood for research?" Abathur gazed at Luode with burning eyes and spoke.
To be honest, he has never seen a life as powerful as Luode; merely standing there, it feels like facing the entire universe, the energy emanating from him. His life level simply surpasses his cognition.
Before, he never dared imagine that this universe still harbored such a powerful life; even the one who created the Zerg swarm, Emon, did not match this powerful divine spirit before him.
"This won't do, but I will use another method; now you summon some Zerg troop types over, I want to test my modification method; if successful, I will hand these organisms over to you for research." Luode spoke.
"Alas! Here, there are ample test subjects, we can begin the experiment." Abathur sighed, then waved his hand, and from the evolution gun immediately jumped out a group of puppies, commonly known as rapid Zerg, and also some worker bees, explosive Zerg, spike snakes, cockroaches, infected, flying dragons, leaders, eye Zerg, lurkers, thunder beasts, and other Zerg unit organisms.
Since Elder Xiong wants to test the Zerg troop types, he naturally needs to cooperate well!
After seeing these organisms appear, Luode's palm drifted out a bit of dark divine power, then injected it into these Zerg larvae's bodies.
After receiving Luode's dark divine power, the Zerg swarm before him immediately underwent changes; originally the Zerg larvae had various colors, even due to evolutionary direction, puppies had three or four colors, even several forms.
But after being infected by Luode's dark divine power, these lifeforms immediately underwent a mutation, their bodies grew slightly larger, then black mist rose from their bodies, dyeing their entire bodies black, after which some tentacles grew on them, looking extremely strange.
"Wah wah wah! Ga ga ga!"
The insectoids transformed by Luode let out piercing, mournful cries; before the transformation, they basically had little mental power, but after the transformation, they could already use some skills similar to psychic shrieks, and if an ordinary lifeform directly took this move, their brains would instantly go mad.
Gene Management Master Abathur saw this scene and immediately jumped up, using his blood-filled maw to take a bite one by one from these insectoids infected by Luode's dark divine power, devouring part of their flesh.
This sight made Luode break out in a sweat, "Damn, you're not afraid of poison?" But this guy's body seems quite strong! The flesh of these insectoids transformed by Luode's dark divine power possesses some of the ancient gods' ability to transform void creatures; if an ordinary person gets even a little contaminated, they would likely be infected, but this guy is completely fine.
"Special unknown energy transformation, strange unknown dark energy, the transformed insectoid troop types have enhanced survival capacity, enhanced infection capacity, enhanced mental capacity; drawbacks: unstable, mental capacity too strong, hard to control." Abathur shook his head and spoke.
This transformation can be said to be very perfect; the insectoid troop types have been strengthened from head to toe, but two fatal drawbacks have also appeared: first, their mental capacity is too strong, and as time passes, they will gradually evolve self-awareness, which is inconvenient for control.
Second, they cannot receive the insect swarm network consciousness transmission from the Swarm Queen, nor can they connect to the insect swarm network to be commanded.
Charging out would just be a scattered mob; although individual combat ability is enhanced, group combat capability is weakened.
"Overall, their combat power has increased; can you modify them further?" Luode asked.
"No! This unknown energy is very peculiar; it seems not to be a genetic power, but rather they are modifying genes, these swarms can't even be called beneficial insects anymore." Abathur shook his head and spoke.
"Alright! Then it's a bit regrettable."
"But I can extract some samples for further research; who knows, there might be some follow-up discoveries." Abathur spoke.
"No problem, then these test subjects are left to you; I'll let them stay here and obey your commands." Luode spoke.
Actually, if Luode wanted to, he could completely use his own dark divine power to infect the entire swarm's every unit, turning them into his void servants.
After being infected by his own dark divine power, Luode has absolute control and authority over these void creatures.
"Right! I'll give you some special insect genes; you might try these genes." Luode thought for a moment, then handed over some insect demons from the Black God Myth world, especially those near the Pansi Cave, as well as part of the blood and flesh of the Poison Enemy Great King to Abathur in front of him.
"Unknown insect genes. Arthropod genes are very powerful and peculiar, highly valuable for research, can greatly enhance the insectoids' combat power; start research, start improvement." Abathur, after receiving the insect demon flesh and blood from Luode from the Journey to the West world, immediately dove into his own evolution sac.
"Alright! You're truly a research maniac; then you do your research well, and if you come up with any new troop types, report to me." Luode nodded and directly left the evolution chamber.
Here everywhere is slime and some disgusting liquids; staying here is a bit uncomfortable! This place is even more disgusting than the bottom of the Pansi Cave.
Abathur nodded to Luode, then with a face full of frenzy, took the flesh Luode gave him, as well as the insectoids infected by dark divine power, and brought them to his own genetic laboratory.
In the following more than ten days, Luode has been secretly controlling the entire swarm; the insectoid queen insects possessing the Leviathan warship were summoned by Luode using the insectoid network, and then he individually applied mental control to them.
Although these queen insects possess very strong mental power, in front of Luode they are merely little brothers!
Their mentality was instantly invaded by Luode, then their memories were modified, becoming Luode's most loyal servants, but Luode does not intend to transform too many of these void creatures.
Anyway, controlling these queen insects doesn't take much effort; Luode plans to retain the original characteristics of the insectoids, rather than transforming them into void creatures, continuing to let them exist as insectoids. After controlling these queen insects, Luode counted them, and there were over a hundred queen insects in total; Luode gathered all these queen insects together.
Then he gave each of them a lower-grade flat peach to eat and fed them elixirs, allowing their life levels to undergo a leap.
These insect queens have higher levels, able to control larger numbers of insectoids, and even they can independently develop some subordinate queen insects.
"Lord Luode, humans have already established a base on this planet; I think it's time to drive them out, after all, this is the insectoids' territory." A queen insect called Nafaxu spoke.
"Hmm! Order all insectoids to act together and drive all humans off this planet." Luode nodded and said.
"Yes, sir, great master."
Under Luode's command, the insectoids of Char Planet began moving again; the insectoid swarm, as long as you don't wipe them out completely in one go, after a period of time, they can instantly reproduce a brand-new army.
This insectoid army caught the human forces off guard; even their forward outpost base wasn't built yet, so the human legion commander could only temporarily abandon this new colony, fleeing in embarrassment aboard a battlecruiser from Char Planet.
After confirming that all humans had completely left, Luode directly issued a command.
That is to merge the original Blade Empress's Leviathan warship directly into his own giant Leviathan warship.
The Leviathan he hatched himself has no intelligence to speak of, not even a trace of self-will.
This insectoid daughter Izsha, who has been nurtured by Kerrigan for a long time, happens to be suitable as the new adjutant of the entire Leviathan warship.
With a powerful interstellar adjutant insectoid daughter assisting in managing the Leviathan warship, Luode would find it very convenient; some hatching work and combat work can be entrusted to him to complete.
Luode only needs to sit down and then issue commands.
It only took a short day's effort; the flagship Leviathan of the former Blade Empress was merged into Luode's new Leviathan warship. (End of chapter)
