Chapter 1108: The last two demon bases
Zhao Chen, A Yin, and A Jin met in a room.
"Don't misunderstand, this is the routine combat readiness state when the Gaia Gate opens," Akin explained calmly.
Zhao Chen didn't mind. He sat down in the chair naturally and looked at Ah Yin next to him: "You should have told me when we set off."
Otherwise, if my flagship accidentally opens fire and destroys your royal court, that would be troublesome.
Given the atmosphere just now, the others probably really did consider the worst-case scenario.
Zhao Chen, on the other hand, remained expressionless throughout.
Even Ah Yin, who had been paying close attention to Zhao Chen, had to admire the mental fortitude of this Dragon Lord.
"I'm sorry, it was my fault." Ah Yin apologized proactively.
"Speak, what do you want from me?"
"If there's nothing else, I'm planning to go home and get some rest," Zhao Chen said lazily.
He missed his two wives very much during his more than one month away from home.
"Something's happened," Ajin said in a deep voice.
Zhao Chen raised an eyebrow slightly, but still said in a calm tone, "Speak, what is it?"
Is it the Cult of Mechanics causing trouble again, or have the demons pulled some new stunt?
Zhao Chen had anticipated this situation.
Judging from A Jin's attitude towards him at this moment, Zhao Chen guessed that the situation was not very serious, at least not imminent.
Otherwise, this mechanical leader wouldn't have spoken to him after meeting him.
“You told us before that the Demon Race has seven hidden starship industrial bases in dimensional space, right?” Akin said.
Zhao Chen nodded: "That is true, during the previous battle phase."
We located five sites and destroyed or took control of them.
But there are still two places we haven't found.
“We’ve found it,” Akin said.
Zhao Chen was somewhat surprised.
Akin added, "To be precise, it wasn't us who found it."
Rather, they emerged on their own.
Zhao Chen gestured for A Jin to continue, while A Yin, who was standing next to him, also cast a curious glance.
"On the tenth day after you left."
Two unusual energy fluctuations have appeared in the northern part of the demon race's territory.
It started out very weak, then gradually grew stronger.
It was discovered by us, the Angels, and your Wraith Dragon one after another.
After that, we each dispatched interstellar reconnaissance ships to the target location for reconnaissance.
We found nothing in that star field.
However, because of the dimensional space technology you mentioned earlier, or rather, the folding space technology.
We searched carefully.
They soon discovered the dimensional space.
However, afterwards, our machine race and angel race interstellar reconnaissance ships entered this space and disappeared without a trace, none of them returning.
Until one of your JF-17's interstellar reconnaissance fleets entered it.
Thirteen of the thirty interstellar reconnaissance ships have returned.
Intelligence was also sent back.
In that space, they discovered... the Zerg!
"The Zerg?" Zhao Chen was somewhat surprised.
"Is it a cosmic wormhole?" Ah Yin asked.
Akin shook his head and said, "It's a Zerg nest."
Zerg Hive?
This was the first time Zhao Chen had ever heard of this term.
"At the beginning, we knew nothing about the Zerg lairs either."
But soon, the other party revealed the answer to us.
On the twentieth day after you left.
"For some unknown reason, the two dimensional spaces have lost their concealment function and have appeared directly in the main space of our universe!" Akin said with a serious expression. "And the true appearance of those two Zerg nests has also appeared before us."
These are the relevant photos and videos; you can take a look.
As he spoke, several videos and photos appeared before Zhao Chen's eyes.
It was a black mass.
It looks like a big ball of flesh.
"Don't underestimate this thing, it's huge! Extremely huge!"
This photo was taken from a very far distance.
Its true size is already equivalent to half of your Xenogears galaxy.
Ah Jin's words shocked Zhao Chen.
Half of the Xiaolong Galaxy?
What does that even mean?!
Zhao Chen simply couldn't imagine it.
That's no longer a matter of comparing the size of planets, stars, or asteroids.
It's half a galaxy!
incredible.
"And during the time you've been back."
Although these two Zerg hives did not pose a real threat or attack to us.
But they are expanding at an alarming rate.
The Zerg fleet began to 'hunt' the surrounding area, centered on the Zerg hive, devouring all life and then bringing it back to the Zerg hive.
They might even use some kind of giant insectoid creature to bring back asteroids and planets.
It was handed over to the Zerg nest to be devoured.
The Zerg hive that devours these things will quickly produce a large number of Hive Motherships!
Based on our current observations, the number of Zerg motherships within the area of these two Zerg lairs has exceeded one hundred million!
A Zerg fleet of 100 million!
Upon hearing this number, Zhao Chen's memories of fighting against the Zerg fleet seemed to be awakened once again.
Although Zhao Chen knew that the vast majority of these 100 million were likely T1 and T2 level Zerg Hive Motherships.
However, such a large base number also means that there are an astonishing number of T4 and T5 Zergling Motherships.
even......
"Have you spotted the T6 Zerg Hive Mothership?" Zhao Chen asked seriously.
“So far, our interstellar reconnaissance fleet has not found anything,” Akin said, shaking his head.
Zhao Chen breathed a slight sigh of relief, but he wasn't truly at ease.
Just because it's not available now doesn't mean it won't be available in the future.
Zhao Chen rubbed his nose.
I originally planned to come back and completely resolve the Demon King's matter.
Unexpectedly, the Zerg have also appeared.
Based on intelligence gathered during a previous 'business trip,' it's estimated that this is inextricably linked to the issue of order.
These Zerg should be the minions of Order.
At that moment, Zhao Chen suddenly thought of something.
I wonder what will happen when the Insect Princess faces these insectoid creatures.
You can try it out after that; who knows, it might produce some amazing chemical reaction.
"How is the battle going in the Demon King City star system?" Zhao Chen asked.
Akin replied, "The battle situation in the Demon King City system is currently under our control, and we are advancing slowly."
However, it is unclear how they obtained information about the emergence of two Zerg nests.
They seem to think this is their hope for a comeback.
This caused some of the Demon King's fleet, which had already lost morale, to once again display a willingness to fight us to the death, resulting in many unnecessary casualties for us.
As those two Zerg nests grow, these two malignant tumors must be dealt with.
Otherwise, their Zerg fleet will increase exponentially!
Akin's expression was very serious at this moment.
Zhao Chen took a deep breath: "I understand, but I need to discuss these matters with my subordinates when I get back."
