The battle was over quickly.

Although those mimic aliens could attack from a distance or in close combat, the Zerg could not take such a small amount of damage. Two Hydralisks and seven Zerglings went straight up to attack them. The only loss was two Zerglings - because they jumped out of the soil too happily, they were pierced through the body by the opponent's tentacles and were dragged down as scapegoats before death.

After this battle, Fang Zheng had a certain understanding of these mimic aliens. Although they looked like living creatures in terms of their action patterns, they were not simple life forms, but some kind of energy creatures. As for their combat power, it should be the average of the puppies and hydralisks. This was only known after Miluen analyzed the remains of the aliens in the incubation pool. Fortunately, Fang Zheng's guess was correct. The Zerg did detect a strange gene sequence from the remains of these creatures. According to Miluen's analysis, this gene sequence should be used to be immune to time reversal.

And that’s not all…

"Master, this gene sequence can speed up the Zerg. I believe it will greatly enhance the Zerg's combat power."

"Any idea how it works?"

"Of course, Master. According to my experiments, this gene sequence can speed up the flow of time for the Zerg, giving them more powerful combat capabilities."

“…Is that so?”

Hearing this, Fang Zheng couldn't help but frown. Miluen's words were easy to understand. To put it bluntly, this gene sequence would make the host's time flow much faster than other creatures. In other words, one second for an ordinary person would be two seconds for the host of the gene sequence. Being faster than others naturally had its benefits. The attack range, frequency and speed would be greatly enhanced, but...

"Are there any side effects? If I remember correctly, the other side also has a control system similar to ours. I don't want to encounter a counterattack from my own bugs on the battlefield."

"It will cause the host to age faster, but this is not a problem for the Zerg, Master. As for the possibility of being controlled, it is basically zero. The Zerg are always loyal to their masters."

"That's true."

After hearing Miluen's answer, Fang Zheng thought about it and came to his senses. Zerg either died in battle or on their way to death in battle. He had never heard of a Zerg dying of old age. So accelerated aging was not a big problem for the Zerg, and whether the Zerg would die of old age was still an unknown. In Fang Zheng's memory, the Zerg seemed to become more difficult to deal with as they aged, and accelerating the flow of time seemed to accelerate the autonomous evolution of the Zerg's body?

Oh my god!

Fang Zheng was shocked after making this calculation. If this was true, then the alien genes in the world of Edge of Tomorrow were too good for the Zerg. They accelerated the evolution while speeding up the battle. It was just like in the game, you turned on the speed booster to take a group of Zerglings out for a walk, and after a walk, the Zerglings mutated and evolved with wings? You didn't even have to click on the technology tree?

No wonder Milune's eyes turned green when she spoke to herself, it seemed that she couldn't wait to enjoy this genetic feast.

As for the issue of being controlled, Fang Zheng thought about it and put it behind his mind. Even if the Zerg were controlled, he could still activate Kerrigan's soul stone. The arrival of the Queen of Blades would control all Zerg. Fang Zheng didn't believe that the alien sphere could be stronger than the Xel'Naga and dare to snatch control from the Queen of Blades.

After getting Fang Zheng's approval, Miluen immediately began to adjust the genes of the Zerg. Fang Zheng didn't know how the Zerg did it, but after just one night, Miluen found Fang Zheng and reported to him that all the nests and arms of the Zerg had successfully swallowed this "time gene". Not only that, Fang Zheng also got a surprise from Miluen - the time gene is not only useful for combat arms, but also for the Zerg's buildings and worker bees. Since this gene can accelerate the flow of time, it is manifested as a faster speed, and the Zerg's buildings are essentially a kind of living thing, so after swallowing the "time gene", the Zerg buildings under Fang Zheng also changed. The most obvious evolutionary feature is that their production speed is accelerated, the research speed is accelerated, and the speed of worker bees transforming into buildings is also accelerated.

Although it was only three seconds, Fang Zheng knew that even this was enough. Imagine that when you play a game and all your units are three seconds faster than the other team, the other team will report you for cheating after five minutes.

The Zerg continued to expand, and Fang Zheng watched the live broadcast with the mobile phone he got from some gangsters. At this moment, on the mobile phone screen, an old man with gray hair and beard wearing a military uniform was waving his hands, looking very vigorous.

"This time, we will fight back. We will completely repel the attack of those alien monsters and let them taste the power of humans!"

The scene changed, and countless transport planes took off into the sky, while reporters were reporting with nervous and serious expressions.

"Today, the brave warriors will cross the strait and face those terrifying alien monsters. Let us wish them a victorious return. The enemy will eventually fail, and victory belongs to us!"

You're right, the enemy will eventually fail, but victory belongs to the Swarm.

Fang Zheng put down his phone and glanced at the time.

Ten twenty-three minutes and forty-five seconds.

Today is the day when the story begins.

If Fang Zheng guessed correctly, Tom Cruise would go to the battlefield today, and then encounter that strange monster in the beach battle, and then pull the other party to shout "I'm a fool" and die together, and then reload the file. Now Fang Zheng depends on whether he can get any benefit from it. As for himself, Fang Zheng is not worried. In fact, this is also an experiment for himself. After all, the layout has been completed. Even if it goes back a few days ago, the Zerg under his command has already taken shape, and there is no way it can interfere with him.

“Boom!”

Three hours later, Fang Zheng suddenly felt his heart skip a beat. He stood up and looked into the distance.

The next moment, the situation suddenly changed.

In just a blink of an eye, Fang Zheng saw the world in front of his eyes began to change. Everything seemed to be played in reverse, but at a faster speed, so that Fang Zheng seemed to have entered a time tunnel. He only felt that even the world in front of his eyes seemed to become blurry, and he could only barely see the sky and the ground clearly. However, this lasted less than ten seconds, and then Fang Zheng trembled suddenly, and then the scenery in front of him became clear again.

Everything seemed to be the same as before, but Fang Zheng could keenly sense that something was different. He turned around and saw Miluen standing quietly beside him, staring at him.

"How's it going, Miluen?"

"Just as you expected, Master, we must have traveled through time and space just now. Master, do you remember what we were doing before?"

"Discuss the next evolutionary plan for the springtails?"

"It seems that you, Master, have also successfully retained your memory."

Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Miluen smiled. Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and said nothing more. He felt that the reason why he could survive this time travel safely might be because of the Dimension Code. After all, in his setting, the Dimension Code has the power to transcend time and space, and can protect its holder... Well, now it seems that the setting that Fang Zheng wrote for show-off seems to be quite useful.

"Report the situation?"

"Everything is normal in the hive. The number of Zerg has not decreased. According to the worker bees' report, the resource ores that were previously mined by them have returned to their original state."

"oh?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng's eyes lit up.

"Does this mean that we have unlimited resources to use?"

"Indeed, my lord."

At this moment, Milune's voice began to become excited. What the Zerg desired most was power and resources, and now, everything they needed was here.

"Then let's get on with it."

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng quickly made a decision.

"Let the hive hatch more worker bees, collect resources, and transform Zerg. When the time is right, we will let the people of this world witness our power with their own eyes!"
