Chapter 205: Zerg Retreat

~7 min read 1,329 words

On the main battlefield, upon noticing that the frequency of the Blue Slime attacks had become less frequent than before, Yingzhou knew that the location where a group of Blue Slime was hiding had just been stumbled upon by the Death Korps of Krieg assaulting the Small Hatchery.

At this moment, the communication device Yingzhou was equipped with suddenly transmitted the voice of Xiong Zhongdao.

"Yingzhou, we have found the location of another batch of Blue Slime. I have already sent the coordinates to the Military District. I believe the Blue Slime there will be wiped out soon. I don't know why, but the number of Zerg this time seems to have decreased significantly. This is an opportunity for us to take the Small Hatchery in one go!"

Upon learning that the Blue Slime at the other location would also be wiped out, Yingzhou picked up the communication device and said to Xiong Zhongdao, "Commander Xiong, I have already sent soldiers to raid the Small Hatchery. For now, let us resolve these Zerg on the main battlefield first."

Within the Insect Tide at this time, a unit was fighting continuously. The Zerg on the periphery not only had to face the attacks from the Human Alliance outside, but even this small unit of humans they had surrounded could not be finished off for a long time.

Far away in the Hatchery, the Dominator Bug felt a trace of fear toward these human soldiers who were surrounded by it yet fought more bravely the longer they fought.

"Why do these humans erupt with such powerful strength? Furthermore, I have already destroyed nearly half of their vehicles, but why do I feel that their numbers have not decreased at all? A unit of several thousand people should have been drowned by my children long ago."

Subsequently, the Support Bug controlled a Zerg transport unit to return to the Hatchery where it was located. They were transporting the humans they had killed on the battlefield this time. Before Mother ordered it to withdraw the children bestowed upon it by the Mother God, it intended to transport some human corpses back to the Hatchery so it could also conduct research; perhaps it could create some new children.

Inside the Hatchery where the Dominator Bug was located at this time, there were dozens of transparent Incubation Eggs, inside which lay human corpses. Tiny bugs in the Incubation Eggs were constantly swimming and entering the corpses.

Small Hatchery.

The Small Hatchery had already been destroyed by the Death Korps of Krieg, and there were not many Zerg inside.

By the time Yingzhou arrived, this Small Hatchery had already been destroyed, and the Krieg soldiers were searching the surroundings for any remaining active Zerg.

"Damn, this Alien nest is actually this small?"

A Catachan tough guy climbed out from a Chimera Armored Vehicle, looked at the already destroyed Small Hatchery, and couldn't help but curse.

Yingzhou came to the Small Hatchery and questioned the Watch Sergeant and the Krieg Commissar who had been waiting for a long time.

"Salute to you, great Emperor!"

Seeing that the Watch Sergeant beside him was already trembling with excitement, the Krieg Commissar took the initiative to speak and salute Yingzhou.

"Hmm, were any human corpses found here?"

Yingzhou nodded slightly and said to the Krieg Commissar in a calm tone.

"Reporting to the Emperor, we did not find any human corpses here. There were not many Aliens left here to begin with. When we arrived, we found traces left behind by the Aliens when they evacuated."

The Krieg Commissar answered with a somewhat excited voice.

Yingzhou nodded, looked at the Watch Sergeant whose hands were already trembling with excitement, patted his shoulder, and said.

"Well done."

Upon being patted by Yingzhou, the Watch Sergeant's entire body trembled with excitement, and he tried his best to suppress his somewhat quivering voice.

"Great Emperor, this is nothing at all! We are willing to do everything for your will, just to atone for our sins!"

Hearing what this Watch Sergeant said, Yingzhou did not say anything more, straightened the other's uniform, and turned to leave.

Only then did Yingzhou discover that these Sixty-Sixth Corps units had not approached this place at all. It wasn't until Xiong Zhongdao arrived and waved at Yingzhou that he noticed his complexion didn't look very good either.

Yingzhou had no choice but to go find Xiong Zhongdao, with the three medical Xiunu following closely behind. As Yingzhou moved, the Death Korps of Krieg, Catachan Jungle Fighters, and Modian Iron Guard on the battlefield all took action.

This made the soldiers of the Sixty-Sixth Corps somewhat nervous; after all, randomly summoned creatures could very likely harm those around them.

Seeing this scene, Yingzhou was somewhat between laughter and tears as he ordered the legions behind him to stand by, and he walked up to Xiong Zhongdao alone.

"Commander Xiong, do you have something for me?"

Yingzhou looked at Xiong Zhongdao in confusion and continued, "Wasn't your plan to push the front line to Position 4? Why stop pushing the front line?"

Xiong Zhongdao leaned forward to take a look at the soldiers Yingzhou had summoned. This was the first time someone's Back Spirit Ability could influence the battlefield; it was no exaggeration to say that one person was worth an entire army. What kind of Back Spirit was this that could not only summon soldiers but also summon armored vehicles and tanks? Moreover, the soldiers had high combat quality and obeyed orders.

"I have already sent people to check the situation over there. For some reason, the Zerg have suddenly retreated. Not only that, but even their Hatcheries on the front line have disappeared; it seems they have all retreated."

Although Xiong Zhongdao was grumbling in his heart, he still stated the purpose of his trip.

"Retreated? How could the Zerg retreat!"

Yingzhou's emotions were momentarily out of control, but he forcibly suppressed them on the verge of an outburst and said to Xiong Zhongdao.

"Sorry, Commander Xiong, I've made a fool of myself. So, is my task finished now?"

"Uh, yes. The retreat of these Alien Races has just given us time to build defensive lines. It is strange to say, why would these Zerg suddenly start to retreat? I don't quite understand this. Judging from the previous situation, they should have been in the superior position. How could they abandon such a great advantage and retreat?"

Xiong Zhongdao patted Yingzhou on the shoulder to comfort him and voiced the doubts in his heart. Seeing that Yingzhou's expression was somewhat solemn, he continued.

"I can understand your feelings, but the Zerg have now retreated, and our strategic goal has been achieved. We will take over this area. You take your soldiers back to the camp to rest for a while, and relax your mood by the way."

Originally, Xiong Zhongdao's temper was not this understanding, and his temper was relatively impatient. However, given the current situation, Yingzhou's strength was simply beyond his imagination, so he could only use appeasement to keep Yingzhou calm and prevent him from making irrational moves.

"I understand. I will leave the rest to you."

After Yingzhou answered simply, he turned and left.

After recalling the soldiers he had summoned, Yingzhou found Wang Haowen. Seeing this guy looking at him with a face full of admiration, Yingzhou pulled a smile to the corner of his mouth and said to Wang Haowen.

"You lead the team from here on. After the business of the Sixty-Sixth Corps is finished, return to the Seventy-Eighth Corps. I won't be going back."

Wang Haowen answered with an excited expression.

"Yes! Sir! You were simply too strong on the battlefield just now! We couldn't believe you could be this strong!"

"If there is a chance in the future, we can still kill the Alien Races together. Until we meet again."

Yingzhou turned and left, waving his hand as he spoke.
