"Our universe is rich in resources."
Every population group on every planet has its own division of labor.
There are insects specifically responsible for construction, and insects specifically responsible for growing food. Then, the tasks are assigned according to everyone's work.
There are also insects specifically responsible for patrolling and maintaining order.
Everyone's life was orderly and peaceful. "The insect princess ate while quietly recounting her past life.
His eyes were filled with memories.
"No matter how abundant the resources are, your Zerg population is so large that they will eventually run out."
"Won't we need to expand outwards then?" Zhao Chen countered.
Insect Princess blinked: "Why did it run out?"
We can produce our own resources, right?
"You guys aren't good enough."
To produce resources on one's own?
Zhao Chen was dumbfounded when he heard this question.
"Most of our supplies are the shells or excrement of other insects."
Fertilizer used to cultivate crops is also excrement.
Meanwhile, when some of the lowest-level insects die, their bodies will transform into some kind of resource and integrate into the planet's interior, becoming a new resource after thousands of years.
We just need to control the Zerg density.
Each planet has a queen, who controls the number of insects on that planet.
So, from the time I can remember...
"We Zerg have never waged war against other races. It's always other interstellar powers or interstellar fleets from other universes that want to seize our planets and resources and wage war against us," the Zerg Queen said, looking aggrieved.
Zhao Chen frowned: "If it's really as you say..."
Then why, in my world?
Every so often, a cosmic wormhole will appear, and an insectoid fleet will invade.
Insect Princess paused, thought for a moment, and said, "I remember Granny Insect told me about it."
Those wicked people, they bully us not only for our homes, but also to control us.
They have the ability to control our lower and middle-tier Zerg.
Our Zerg have a hierarchy. A Zerg tribe will have a high-ranking queen, and the high-ranking queen possesses intelligence.
The bad guys will first try to control these mother insects, and if they can't control them, they'll kill them.
Zerg tribes that lose their mother worm will be controlled and enslaved by them, thus obeying their commands and becoming bad worms.
Those that are attacking your world are probably these bad bugs.
"It has nothing to do with the little bug!" Bug Princess waved her hands repeatedly.
Upon hearing this explanation...
Zhao Chen seemed to have thought of something.
I remember a few years ago, when he was dealing with the internal crisis of the Starry Empire, the Doctor and the traitor Prince Yan had a technology in their hands.
It uses some kind of mechanical chip to control the Zerg corpses.
In addition, the doctor also presented another technology that could be used to build a batch of mutated insectoids.
It's clear that the Doctor, or rather the forces behind the Doctor, have conducted in-depth research on the Zerg.
And these technologies are very similar to the abilities that Mushihime is describing now!
Could it be that the mastermind behind those interstellar Zerg is actually Order itself?
Thinking about it this way, Zhao Chen found that many things seemed to make sense now.
The Dark Legion fleet launched its attack from outside the universe, but the Star Zerg possess a unique ability to directly construct cosmic burrows and attack the interior of the target universe.
In addition, the Zerg possess inherent combat talents.
It must be said that, for the sake of order, the Zerg are indeed very suitable puppet minions.
"Little Bug, do you remember what stage of technology your insectoid race was at back then?" Ah Yin asked from the side.
"Technological stage?" Insect Princess sucked on her duck neck, blinked at A-Yin, and seemed not to understand what she meant.
“Then I’ll ask, and you answer,” Ah Yin asked. “Do you possess the ability to leave your own universe?”
Mushihime nodded: "Sure, but Mom said..."
There are bad people outside our home, don't go out!
"Then can you travel to other universes?" Ah Yin asked again.
"Can.
"Sometimes, when other universes come to bully us, Mom will lead a lot of insects to retaliate a little, destroying their fleets and military facilities," the Insect Princess said.
"How many beings like the Insect Granny you just mentioned were there in your homeland back then?"
"Is the insect queen you mentioned earlier that controls a planet at this level?" Ah Yin asked.
Insect Princess took a sip of the cola next to her, let out a "ha" sound, and then said, "Grandma Insect is very strong!"
It is stronger than the mother insect.
The queen insects do not have combat capabilities; their main responsibility is to raise the smaller insects.
Grandma Insect can manage them, and she can manage many star systems!
As for how many... I'm not sure, a hundred? A thousand?
Mushihime shook her head, indicating that she couldn't remember.
Ah Yin didn't ask any more questions at this point, but instead glanced at Zhao Chen.
The meaning in their eyes was already quite clear.
The original insectoid civilization of the Insect Princess must have reached the level of a T6 technological civilization.
The 'Grandma Insect' is essentially a lord of a star field, capable of ruling over multiple star systems.
Zhao Chen then caught a glimpse of something and stared at the Insect Princess: "Little Insect, you kept mentioning your mother."
Between your mother and your bug-like grandmother, who is stronger?
"Who is stronger?" Insect Princess thought for a moment and said, "I don't know who is stronger, they have never fought."
But Granny Insect respected my mother very much; she said my mother was the hope of the Insect race.
The Zerg's hope?
Zhao Chen guessed that the mother of this insect queen was most likely a member of the ruling class of this insect race, such as an empress or queen.
So, is this Insect Princess the princess?
But what is so important about her?
Zhao Chen scrutinized the 'foodie' in front of him; aside from being able to eat, she didn't seem to have any other use.
He doesn't have any special abilities.
She herself doesn't have strong combat abilities. If she were {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} strong, Zhao Chen's sixth sense would have already told him.
Forget it, there's no way to figure it out now.
I originally thought that this trip would uncover all the secrets.
I never imagined that there was another secret beneath the first.
This has left Zhao Chen completely confused.
However, it was still quite a gain. Let's take this little thing back first. It's safer to keep such a creature by our side.
Just then, the little succubus secretary knocked on the door and entered after receiving permission.
She looked at the commander: "Commander, the research team has studied the battle traces on the wreckage of those Zerg starships."
We have already deduced how long ago those signs of battle occurred.
"How long?" Zhao Chen asked.
"At least 10,000 years ago."
