Chapter 1921

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang disappeared into the wasteland. After blending into the environment, it ran directly toward the Zerg Nest in the distance.

Upon arriving near the Zerg Nest, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang saw dozens of Mantis Shells and several types of Zerg he had never seen before. Among them, he didn't see the Zerg troop type like the Poison Stinger, which confirmed Su Xiao's conjecture: the genetic memory awakened by the mother body was different.

Jila's first-stage combat troop was the Poison Stinger, while this enemy Zerg Nest's first-stage combat Zerg was called the Ling Liao.

The number of Zerg near the Zerg Nest was over a hundred, and this was not counting the combat Zerg that had already gone out hunting.

After Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang observed roughly, he walked toward the entrance of the Zerg Nest.

The process of entering the Zerg Nest went very smoothly. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's steps slowed down. The interior of this Zerg Nest was about fifty square meters and over ten meters high. The inner wall was dark green and secreted a kind of slime, giving the Zerg Nest an apricot smell, which was not unpleasant but rather fresh.

Inside the Zerg Nest, a figure lay in the biological tissue. This was a mother body similar in appearance to Jila, only taller than Jila.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang took out a thermal sensing device and began to provide Su Xiao with the orientation.

In the wasteland 700 meters away from the Zerg Nest, Su Xiao crouched on a mound, holding the two-meter-long Devouring Extinction steadily, his finger hooked on the trigger.

The sky was cloudless, and today was a good day, with no wind.

Bang!

The gunshot rang out. Just as the sound spread, almost instantly, all the combat Zerg near the Zerg Nest rushed toward the nest. They all leaped up and lay on the Zerg Nest, using their bodies to block any possible attacks.

Without determining the enemy's position, doing this was very wise. Unfortunately, a large hole nearly two meters wide had already appeared on the Zerg Nest, and emerald liquid gushed out along the edge of the hole.

Inside the Zerg Nest, a Zerg mother body with only half a body left was twitching unconsciously. Her head and upper body had been blown to pieces.

Before Su Xiao came, he had checked Jila's attributes. After promoting to the second stage, Jila only had 72 points of stamina attribute.

As a mother body of the same second stage, even if the stamina attribute was higher, it wouldn't be much higher. The mother body had higher intelligence and charm attributes, followed by stamina. As for strength and agility, they were quite weak.

【Prompt: The hunter has killed the second-stage mother body.】

【You have obtained a treasure chest (Gold).】

Su Xiao only glanced at the prompt and then focused his attention on the Zerg Nest in the distance. After the mother body died, the Zerg near the Zerg Nest appeared abnormally irritable and also dazed, running around randomly.

"Baha."

"Uh, that, cough, I have diarrhea today, really, it's just something that happened this morning."

"..."

"Being able to fly is not a good thing either."

Baha spread its wings and flew up, arriving a few dozen meters near the Zerg Nest.

"Hey, over here."

"Roar!!"

"Sss~"

Roars came one after another. All the combat Zerg rushed toward Baha, among which a dozen had swollen abdomens, spitting out clusters of acidic liquid.

Baha retreated immediately, and the combat Zerg below began to pursue. They had no intelligence. After losing the command of the mother body, they could only act on instinct—hunting and surviving, it was just that simple.

All the combat Zerg were led away by Baha. Seeing this scene, Su Xiao decided one thing in his heart: the next time the contractor melee began, he must strengthen the protection of Jila.

The combat Zerg all went to pursue, while dozens of Mantis Shells were dazed and running around near the Zerg Nest.

Su Xiao put away the Devouring Extinction, and D·Assassination appeared in his hand. He tried to approach the Zerg Nest, and something that surprised him happened: those Mantis Shells not only didn't attack him but actually tried to build a small Zerg Nest nearby.

Su Xiao looked at the behemoth thirty meters high in front of him. This thing would be transported by Baha.

The battle went much smoother than expected, which also exposed the weakness of the Zerg: once they lost the mother body, the combat power of the Zerg would drop by more than 90%.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang walked out of the Zerg Nest, with something in his mouth.

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang threw a crystal that looked like a green crystal toward Su Xiao, and Su Xiao caught it casually.

【You have obtained Coagulated Crystal x1 (Low Purity).】

Except for the name, there was no introduction. Su Xiao felt that this should be a unique output of the Zerg Nest. This thing had not been notarized by the Reincarnation Paradise and could not be taken out of this world.

Putting away the Coagulated Crystal, Su Xiao grabbed the Zerg Nest with one hand, preparing to pull this thing out by the roots.

This battle seemed easy, entirely because of the crushing information advantage. This mother body only set up warnings within 500 meters, but Su Xiao sniped from 700 meters away, plus Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang provided the location, allowing Su Xiao to kill the relatively fragile mother body with one shot.

If he had attacked head-on, it would have taken at least half an hour for Su Xiao to kill all the combat Zerg.

As for attacking a third-stage Zerg Nest head-on, that would be quite dangerous. If he was not careful, Su Xiao might be swallowed by the Zerg tide.

And for the fourth-stage Zerg Nest, Su Xiao simply wouldn't provoke it. If he ran a little slowly, he would definitely die.

In less than half an hour, Baha returned and landed on the Zerg Nest that had already tilted to the side.

"Boss, I know what you are thinking. This thing really can't be lifted."

Baha's claws pierced into the Zerg Nest, flapping its wings with all its might. With a rip, it tore off a large piece of the Zerg Nest's outer skin.

"It can be divided into five parts."

Su Xiao pulled out the long blade at his waist and slashed a few times in a crisscross pattern, cutting the Zerg Nest into five uniform large pieces.

"This is much easier."

Baha grabbed a large piece of the Zerg Nest and spread its wings to fly up. Looking at Baha gradually moving away, Su Xiao felt that he could let Jila cultivate a Spore Tank; that thing was specifically used for transporting supplies.

Su Xiao stayed behind to guard the spoils, while Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang tied a rope around himself and also dragged away a large piece of the Zerg Nest.

Looking at the remaining three large pieces of the Zerg Nest, Su Xiao took out a steel cable. After fixing it, he also dragged the remaining three large pieces of the Zerg Nest toward the base camp.

During this period, Baha met Su Xiao halfway once. It took a total of about two hours for Su Xiao to transport all five large pieces of the Zerg Nest back to the base camp.

Just after returning to the base camp, Su Xiao discovered that his own Zerg Nest was already twenty-five meters high. There were five Zerg Nest spoils in total. At this moment, his own Zerg Nest had already swallowed one piece, using the biological energy within this piece of the Zerg Nest to expand itself.

9 Mantis Shells were laboriously decomposing the Zerg Nest, and 14 Poison Stingers were acting as porters. None of them went out hunting.

Not long after, 10 more Mantis Shells ran out from the Zerg Nest, joining the decomposition and transportation work of the Zerg Nest fragments.

The devouring speed of his own Zerg Nest was getting faster and faster. When the Zerg Nest reached thirty meters, its devouring speed was at least fifty times that of the beginning.

Thirty meters was the limit height of the second-stage Zerg Nest. Jila only promoted to the second stage at noon, and now, the volume of the second-stage Zerg Nest had reached its limit.

After the Zerg Nest completed devouring, Su Xiao checked the biological energy inventory.

【Biological energy currently available in the Zerg Nest: 6179/10000.】

Facts proved that going out to plunder other Zerg was hundreds of times faster than hunting animals to develop. If he relied solely on Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, and the 14 Poison Stingers to hunt animals, it would take at least three days to accumulate 6000 points of biological energy, not to mention that the Zerg Nest's growth just now also consumed a lot of biological energy.

The Zerg Nest that was destroyed before had clearly accumulated a lot of biological energy, but disaster struck from the sky, and it was directly razed to the ground.

"Jila."

"I am here."

Jila poked her head out from the entrance of the Zerg Nest. At this moment, Jila's loyalty reached 95 points, hitting a record high. If this were a female plot character, there would be no problem rubbing her on the bed.

"Identify this thing."

Su Xiao took out the 【Coagulated Crystal (Low Purity)】 obtained earlier and threw this crystal that looked like a green crystal toward Jila.

Who would have thought that Jila would actually open her mouth and catch the 'Coagulated Crystal' with a tilt of her head. This crystal, the size of a walnut, Jila not only held it in her mouth, but she also had a tendency to swallow it. This bear child really ate everything.

Su Xiao took a few steps forward and grabbed Jila's head, but it was already too late.

Gulp~

Jila was choked by the green crystal and tilted her head back. Su Xiao could clearly see a bulge at her neck, and the bulge moved downward...

Green flames appeared on Jila's body. Her hands pressed toward the Zerg Nest, and the biological energy stored in the Zerg Nest increased rapidly, stopping after increasing by about 500 points.
