Chapter 428: The Next Civilization

Regarding the matter of who killed the Zerg Queen's guard, first of all, I can rule myself out.

Because my luck isn't good enough to run into a Zerg Queen's guard just by stepping outside.

Secondly, although I used Quantum Control to kill many bugs, those bugs looked like a bunch of cannon fodder no matter how you look at them.

The Zerg Queen's guard must certainly look different from ordinary bugs.

And I haven't encountered any bugs with a unique appearance.

Kaisha continued, "According to the Dark Information, a Zerg Queen's guard is very hard to kill because its vitality is extremely formidable; even if it is hacked into eight pieces, it can still recover, though it requires a massive amount of food."

Hearing this, Ye Cang quietly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

A bug with extremely formidable vitality.

Hmm... I actually did encounter one.

I take back what I said before.

My luck is actually quite good; I can run into a Zerg Queen's guard just by stepping outside.

Watching Kaisha, who was about to continue speaking, Ye Cang interrupted her.

"Ahem, alright, Kaisha."

"There is no need to continue talking about the cause of this riot; it is meaningless to discuss these things now."

"It is enough to understand how far the Zerg swarm has evolved."

"To evolve to this point in just a few decades is unimaginable; if they were to really evolve for thousands of years, what would they become?"

Ye Cang's mention of evolving for thousands of years made Kaisha alert.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Evolving for thousands of years? Didn't the bugs we just wiped out only evolve for a few decades? Where would thousands of years come from?"

Ye Cang sighed and looked at Morgana.

"Morgana, why don't you explain it to your sister."

Kaisha turned her head and looked at Morgana with a suspicious expression.

Morgana did not dawdle and immediately said, "It's just that, about 6 years ago, Ye Cang seized my Demon No. 1, and from the collection on Demon No. 1..."

"He discovered a Zerg Insect Egg from thousands of years ago, and this egg had remained active for over a thousand years, capable of hatching on its own."

"In other words, this Zerg race very likely evolved alone in some unknown place in the Universe for thousands of years."

Once these words were spoken, Kaisha's breathing became rapid.

She had thought the Zerg they just saw were all of them, or even if not, at least the majority.

Who would have thought.

A Zerg race that had evolved for thousands of years would suddenly pop up.

Evolving for a few decades was already somewhat outrageous; having evolved for thousands of years, what must they have turned into?

Kaisha could no longer hold back and slammed the table.

Her emotions were somewhat complex now; she couldn't say she was angry, but she couldn't say she wasn't angry either.

"Ye Cang, why didn't you tell me about this sooner!"

"And Liangbing, Ye Cang wouldn't let you speak, so you just kept it from me the whole time?"

Morgana didn't feel she was in the wrong and immediately stood up to retort.

"No, I don't owe you anything!"

"Why would I bother to suck up to you for no reason? Besides, you didn't ask!"

Taking a deep breath, Kaisha turned her head away and stopped paying attention to Morgana.

There was no point in paying attention to Morgana at this time.

If she hadn't been a bit muddled just now, she wouldn't have even asked Morgana.

"Ye Cang." Kaisha looked at Ye Cang, waiting for him to speak.

Ye Cang was not silent, but instead said, "I remember that I had been emphasizing the matter of the Zerg to you all for a long time."

"And what were your reactions? A look of disdain, an indifferent attitude, thinking that bugs didn't pose a threat."

"If you hadn't seen the bugs with your own eyes today, I reckon your attitudes wouldn't have changed."

While saying this, Ye Cang's tone was extremely calm, without the slightest ripple.

"There are some things you won't believe until you see them with your own eyes; I understand you on this point."

"But that is not a reason for you to turn around and question me."

After he finished speaking, Kaisha fell into silence.

Recalling the past, Ye Cang had indeed emphasized the Zerg matter countless times, and her own attitude had been exactly as Ye Cang described.

It was her fault; she had been too arrogant.

Watching Kaisha fall into silence, Ye Cang did not say anything more.

Now that Kaisha realized how terrifying the bugs were, that was enough.

Witnessing it with one's own eyes is always the most effective method, bar none.

Except for certain stubborn fools; those stubborn fools only choose to believe when death is imminent, but by then it is truly too late.

"Alright."

Ye Cang tapped the table lightly.

"Let's have less mutual blaming and questioning; those words are completely meaningless."

"Now that you have seen the terror of the Zerg with your own eyes, I believe you should understand me."

"Right?"

Once these words were spoken, Kaisha and the others nodded in unison, not saying another word.

"Now, please put away your contempt and your arrogance, and join me on an Expedition to the galaxy to confront the Zerg."

"The threat of the Zerg is the most real right now; it is no exaggeration to say that we might encounter Zerg that have been developing for a thousand years in the next second."

"As for the Void and the Ultimate Fear, these two are too ethereal and abstract; they don't even have a physical form."

"Therefore, the most urgent task now is the Expedition to the galaxy. You all have no objections, right?"

Kaisha and the others shook their heads in unison, expressing one after another that they had no objections.

Seeing this, Ye Cang said, "Since that is the case, we should now head to the next civilization."

"Kaisha, where is our next target?"

Kaisha opened the star map and took a brief look.

"This civilization is located more than 100 light-years away from the Ranger Civilization."

"Furthermore, this civilization's development is somewhat backward; it has not entered the industrial age, and its productivity relies mainly on human labor."

"Hmm, let's set off!" After Ye Cang finished speaking, the Wormhole activated.

The massive fleet group entered the Wormhole and rushed toward the predetermined location.

After 2 days of travel, the fleet arrived at the planet where that civilization was located.

Looking from space, this planet was not much different from Earth, only slightly larger than Earth.

After Kaisha's Dark Information reading.

After confirming that everything on the planet was normal, Ye Cang led a team of Super Soldiers to land on this planet.

After a simple scan of the terrain.

Following the map provided by Kaisha, Ye Cang took his party toward the village nearest to them.

However, when Ye Cang arrived at the village nearest to him, he was completely dumbfounded.

Because what appeared before his eyes was not a village at all.

But a group of... primitive people, a group of primitive people living in caves!

Yes, they were indeed primitive people.

At first, Ye Cang thought his eyes were playing tricks on him.

After rubbing his eyes and looking several times in a row, Ye Cang was finally convinced that he had not seen wrong.

What was before him really was primitive people.

Before Ye Cang could react, two primitive people nearly 3 meters tall, covered in muscle, wearing animal skins, and holding two iron spears in their hands, blocked the group's path.
