Chapter 171: Escape
The five ghoul sages had no means of attack, so they could only command the ghouls that kept gathering nearby, hoping to cause effective damage to the Zerg through the art of command.
The nearby Zerg queen could have launched a spawning attack on them. As long as their strength was not too much greater than that of the Zerg queen, the queen's spawning attack could kill them with one strike.
In order not to alert the enemy, Wu Qing did not do so for the time being. If he killed these ghoul sages now, other strong men would not dare to come to the front casually in the future.

The conditions for upgrading the Zerg mother nest to four stars are only 1/10, and Wu Qing has placed great hopes on this underground world.
With the nearby command of the sages, the number of ghouls gathering is increasing, and the attack is more organized.
But so many ghouls gathered together, attracting the bombing Zerg dragons, and carried out several rounds of fierce bombing on the ghouls that gathered together and prepared to attack the Zerg Hydralisks.
The ghouls in the ghoul territory are endless, constantly gathering and attacking the Zerg Hydralisks, and they will not give up even if the Zerg dragons and Zerg Hydralisks slaughter them.
In the eyes of the ghoul wise, no matter how powerful the creature is, the continuous attack time is limited. They just want to use ghouls to consume the Zerg and try to find a way to deal with the Zerg.
This is also the case. Even if the Zerg has the energy support provided by the Zerg network, the continuous attack can last for a very long time, but there is a limit. This upper limit is determined by the strength of the Zerg itself and other factors.
The high-intensity battle lasted for a certain period of time. The Zerg, which earned enough resources, hatched a thousand dragons and two thousand hydralisks, and evolved 200 stealth spiders with the newly hatched hydralisks.
This new force was put into the battlefield of the underground world, so that the long-fighting dragons and hydralisks could take turns to rest. As long as they get rest, they can recover to their peak state in a short time.
Especially the Zerg hydralisk, which can directly burrow into the ground to recover. In the underground world, many abilities of the Zerg can be used directly without concealment.
In this way, the Zerg obtained resources by slaughtering ghouls, used resources to send troops, and continuously increased the number of Zerg dragons and hydralisks.
When the number of Zerg dragons increased to 8,000 and the number of Zerg hydralisks increased to , the situation finally changed. A type of soldier that should not have appeared appeared in the territory of the ghouls in the underground world.
When Wu Qing saw these monsters that looked very similar to the evil eyes in his impression through the No. 1 three-star host, he knew that these were the ghouls who found them to deal with the Zerg dragons.
These monsters are like a big eyeball with some tentacles under it. From a distance, they are somewhat similar to the Zerg host, like a small host crawling on the ground.
When they were in groups, firing red scorching rays at the Zerg dragons flying in the air from a long distance, Wu Qing ordered the Zerg dragons to retreat.
Zerg dragons that have been fighting for a long time should not be entangled with unknown soldiers in this underground world.
He asked the three-star dragons to take a few dragons to fly over deliberately, and suffered a few laser-like attacks from the evil eye, and also sprayed biological bombs at the evil eye.
The attack characteristics of the evil eye are very similar to lasers, with fast attack speed, long range, and difficult to dodge. It has high temperature and scorching damage and strong penetration.
The attacked Zerg dragons, three-star dragons, have strong defense and have not been effectively damaged, but ordinary dragons cannot defend against this attack and have been damaged to varying degrees. If they are attacked intensively, they can be easily shot down.
The good news is that the defense ability of this evil eye is very weak, and several biological bombs of the Zerg dragons have killed many evil eyes.
One of the reasons is the three-star dragon, but the biological bombs of ordinary dragons can also easily kill this strange creature.
The Zerg dragon bombed all the way back, releasing the last biological bomb to its heart's content, and flew away through the barrier of the underground world.
Their bombing cleared a lot of ghouls gathered in front of the Zerg Hydralisk, and all the stealth spiders that had drilled into the ground and kept attacking crawled out and took the opportunity to retreat.
The huge body of the stealth spider directly exited the underground world through the passage left by the Zerg Hydralisk.
The last to leave were the Zerg Hydralisks, who retreated in an orderly manner, without panic, and disappeared in the eyes of the five wise men of the ghoul clan, and finally all disappeared.
If it weren't for the devastation of the ghoul territory, they wouldn't have believed that there was such a mysterious army that launched such a fierce attack on the territory.
Those evil eyes that came to help moved very slowly, and when they arrived, the Zerg had long disappeared.
...
Wu Qing asked the Zerg to withdraw from the underground world on their own initiative, and the Zerg returned unscathed, which was considered a very valuable exploration mission.
The Zerg's various arms have been fighting for so long that their combat power is almost exhausted. If they continue to fight, they will be beaten. Moreover, the enemy has a new arm with a long range and fast firing speed. There is no need to use the Zerg's important combat power to compete with them.
This time, the Zerg took the initiative to enter the underground world, and the harvest was very great. Not only did they find out some of the underground world, but they also obtained a lot of resources.
The number of Zerg dragons increased to 8,000, the number of Zerg hydralisks increased to , and the number of stealth spiders also increased to 300.
These main arms of the Zerg, as long as they rest and recover, will be full of combat power again.
Through the barrier of the underground world, a large number of evil eyes can be seen rushing over, and they seem to be planning to settle down near the barrier.
Faced with this situation, today's underground world exploration mission can only end here. The Zerg only left a few hosts to monitor the situation in the underground world, and all other combat troops withdrew to the Zerg territory to rest and recover.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content below!
These main combat forces of the Zerg must recover their combat power as soon as possible to prevent a major war that may occur at night.
At this time, the Zerg's battle to support the Naga tribe also began, and Wu Qing and the Queen of the Zerg focused their main energy on the Naga tribe.
…
The Zerg fought on two fronts and fought for a day. It was not until the evening that they completely calmed down.
Wu Qing and the Queen of the Zerg were busy for a day, but the harvest was very gratifying.
Wu Qing's consciousness returned to the body, and he first increased the number of flying dragons to only.
According to today's exploration, in order to deal with the strong men in the underground world, the Zerg Queen's egg-laying ability is currently the strongest and most secret means to deal with the enemy's strong men.
Wu Qing consumed a lot of resources to increase the number of queens to 10. The queens, who were initially three-star strong, had the ability to lay eggs that were effective against four-star enemies, which was very powerful.
Whether it could be a one-hit kill still needed to be tested. In order not to scare the strong men in the underground world and make them prepared, the queen did not attack the five ghoul wise men today.
The number of Zerg Hydralisks has reached , and there is no need to increase it for the time being. Now the Zerg needs to use more gas resources, and the number of Hydralisks cannot be increased as willfully as before.
The hatching of some Zerg hive puppies has not stopped. Excluding the number of losses in supporting the Naga tribe, the total number of Zerg puppies has exceeded 500,000. At the current slow increase rate, by tomorrow morning, the total number of Zerg puppies should be able to reach 600,000.
This number of Zerg puppies will consume all the energy harvested from the Zerg's recent battles and the energy continuously collected by nearly 8,000 Zerg worker bees underground.
Energy is a basic resource. Energy resources are needed for hatching other Zerg troops, building construction, upgrading, maintaining Zerg combat, etc.
Although the sources of energy resources are diverse, even Zerg buildings, fungal blankets, and even each Zerg itself can collect energy resources, but it still cannot reach the level of unlimited mass production of puppies.
Wu Qing is ready to stop when the number of Zerg puppies reaches 600,000. With the current mass production capacity of the Zerg, as long as there are enough resources, a large number of troops can be added in a short period of time.
After the hatching of the Zerg Queen and the flying dragon, Wu Qing gathered more than 300,000 Zerg puppies in the Zerg territory, and adjusted the defense system of the expanding Zerg underground territory with the Zerg Queen.
As long as the Zerg worker bees keep digging and collecting resources underground, the Zerg's underground territory will continue to expand.
Now that the number of Zerg has increased, the corresponding Zerg territory area must also be sufficient.
After the efforts of the Zerg worker bees, the Zerg underground base has finally been connected to the underground cave space base. In the future, the Zerg will only have one base underground, and there will be no more enclaves.
Adding new Zerg defense buildings and upgrading Zerg defense buildings in key locations to higher star levels all require resources.
Prioritizing the gathering of troops in the Zerg territory and strengthening the defense of the Zerg underground territory are all to prevent the night attack of the mysterious enemy.
From the enemy troops in the night attack, it can be seen that the mysterious enemy has a certain relationship with the underground world. The Zerg took the initiative to attack the ghouls in the underground world today, and had to step up defense at night to prevent retaliation.
…
Everything was stable at night, and there were no unexpected situations.
Wu Qing continued to be busy, and he still had a lot of things to do.
Tomorrow morning, the second batch of Zerg troops supporting the Naga tribe will set off. Wu Qing plans to increase investment, send an additional 240,000 Zerg puppies, gather 300,000 Zerg support troops, and prepare to keep this force in the Naga territory for a long time.
Zerg explosive mosquitoes play a big role at critical moments. 400 new Zerg territories have been hatched, and the number of explosive mosquitoes in the Naga territory will be maintained at 1,000 for a long time to prepare for special circumstances.
The army supporting the Naga tribe is currently composed mainly of Zerg Zerglings, supplemented by Scourges. The main combat arms such as Zerg Hydralisks and Mutalisks have limited manpower and are relatively expensive. They are mainly responsible for fighting in areas controlled by the Zerg and will not be deployed abroad for the time being.
When the Zerg develops to a certain scale, these arms can officially step onto the big stage of this world and participate in larger-scale wars.
