Chapter 263: Chapter 159: Undying Skull Shattering, Unexpected Gains from Destroying the Nest
"Once it succeeds and comprehends the inheritance of the Spine Zerg Race, it can become a rare Tier Three King Spine Zerg!"
"And as the number of Tier Three Mid-stage Mother Empresses grows, the quantity of King Spine Zergs currently undergoing metamorphosis has already reached a considerable scale..."
"Then, as soon as any Mother Empress on Blue Star is killed by human hands and has her immense Life Energy plundered, the final metamorphosis protocol will be activated. The newly born Tier Three King Spine Zergs will then step onto the surface battlefield to assist the Mother Empresses and eliminate any Tier Three enemies."
Hearing Ling Yi’s detailed explanation, Lin Feng couldn’t help but wonder just how powerful a Tier Three King Spine Zerg would be.
After all, a mere Lv29 Tiger Spine Zerg could easily slaughter dozens of Tier Two Awakeners. Once it evolved into a High Tier King Zerg on the same level as a Mother Empress...
’It would probably become the most difficult member of the Zerg Race to deal with.’
Just then, Ling Yi finished acquiring the genetic information from the Tier Two Peak Tiger Spine Zerg. Seeing Lin Feng lost in a daze, she gave a faint, subtle smile and spoke coolly,
"Don’t overthink it. Your target is the High-tier Mother Empress."
"Honestly, as the commander of the Swarm, the Mother Empress’s personal combat power ranks among the lowest of all High Tier King Zergs. After all, her Realm Ability isn’t the offensive type."
"Otherwise, we wouldn’t have chosen this Blue Star as the incubation ground for a Tier Four Mother Empress. With humanity’s strength, you’re far from a threat to a Mother Empress’s growth."
"It gives everyone enough time and resources to complete this global promotion-and-elimination tournament..."
Lin Feng: "..."
"Alright, let’s go. We need to start work here too."
Ling Yi grunted in acknowledgment, took a few steps, then glanced back and added,
"Also, the Nest that was originally producing Tier Two Giant Mandibles has ceased operations. It’s likely related to the Biological Melting Furnace you destroyed. So, in terms of materials, all we have is this Tier Two Peak Tiger Spine Zerg."
"Do you need me to control the Red-Armored Beetles to carry it out?"
Lin Feng thought for a few seconds, then shook his head.
"No, that’s alright. I have another use for it."
Ling Yi didn’t linger and promptly turned to leave.
She had to go guard that batch of Zerg Eggs and make sure the Node Mother didn’t launch a sneak attack.
Lin Feng, meanwhile, bent down and touched the Tiger Spine Zerg’s corpse. The Identification results appeared before his eyes:
「Tiger Spine Zerg Lv29 — Deceased State」
「Possesses the Solid as a Rock Attribute. All Shells on its body can be used as Tier Two Orange-grade materials. As it has an integrated structure, absorbing it completely will grant an additional bonus.」
「Note: The entire body is equivalent to 20 pairs of Orange Giant Mandibles.」
Seeing the Identification results, Lin Feng’s face lit up with joy. He then began absorbing it into his Lv24 Flying Tiger Armor.
Previously, due to the shortage of Tier Two Giant Mandibles and the use of the Flying Tiger Armor’s Absolute Defense, Lin Feng hadn’t performed any major Upgrades on it.
Now, this rare opportunity had presented itself, allowing him to source materials on the spot.
He naturally wasn’t going to let it go to waste.
Especially after two thrilling and dangerous trips into the Hive, Lin Feng was keenly aware of the tactical shortcomings caused by his insufficient Armor.
Considering the future need to kill a High-tier Mother Empress, which would involve facing even greater dangers and challenges, the need to Upgrade the Flying Tiger Armor clearly outweighed that of the Land Patrol Battleship, which was responsible for long-range support.
Besides, Lin Feng needed the Battleship’s equipment upgrades to continue charging his Genetic Radiation Skill.
As an Orange Light enveloped the entire Zerg corpse, its half-meter-thick, solid Outer Armor was deposited into the Lv24 Flying Tiger Armor in the next moment.
After initiating the Flying Tiger Armor’s Upgrade, Lin Feng raised the Electromagnetic Cannon in his hands and began firing wildly into the dark cavern behind him.
BOOM! BOOM!
The cavern roof collapsed, burying the shattered Biological Nests and reducing the entire Hive to ruins.
By the time the group reached the Wormhole entrance...
Lin Feng had already finished off the last Biological Nest.
A notification immediately flashed before his eyes:
「Congratulations on successfully destroying a Biological Nest!」
「Slain Mutated Mother Body — Node Symbiote」
「Acquired ten charges of Tier Two Upgrade Energy...」
「Acquired the gift of the Node Symbiote: Zerg Race Mental Realm Spiritual Energy」
