The layout of the Zerg's buildings is different from that of other places: there is a hatchery standing in the center of the fungal blanket, with a group of larvae crawling around it, ready to hatch at any time.
The worker bees that collect resources will hurry up and deliver four cubic meters of resources each time to the hatchery for processing. If they are willing to spend a little more, they can hatch a group of springtails for guarding. If they collect more resources, they can produce a hydralisk or cockroach.
However, for Fang Zheng, compared with the violent attack on the army, he was more concerned about the strange phenomenon happening in front of him.
"This is really interesting..."
Standing on the fungal blanket, Fang Zheng closed his eyes and felt the air around him. He could feel that as the fungal blanket spread, the originally chaotic air around him gradually began to calm down, and the air that was originally filled with poison began to be purified. And wherever the Zerg fungal blanket went, the area that was originally full of chaotic power began to weaken a lot.
Fang Zheng had seen this situation before. In the North, he used the Protoss crystal towers to resist the influence of the power of chaos and gradually expand the realm of order. Now it seems that the Zerg fungus blanket also has a similar effect, but unlike the crystal towers that take effect immediately, the Zerg fungus blanket seems to have a transformation and conversion process.
However, whether it is the crystal tower or the fungal blanket, their existence shows one thing - that is, on this planet, all forces based on order, whether good or evil, regardless of race, can resist the erosion and attack of chaos. Especially races with strict order structures such as Protoss and Zerg are more prominent in this regard. Perhaps because of this, their effect on chaos is more obvious.
This also made Fang Zheng more confident. It was obvious that since the fungal blanket could suppress chaos, everything he did was reasonable and well-reasoned... Whoever dared to cause trouble was against him and the goddess of order, and I would beat his head off!
Of course, there are some troubles.
“Squeak!!”
Through the vision shared by the fungal blanket, Fang Zheng clearly saw a group of monsters screaming and leaping from the branches, rushing towards his territory. They looked like monkeys, but they had a poisonous snake as a tail. Not only that, these "monkeys" had huge tumors all over their bodies that kept wriggling and spewing venom, and their skinny limbs that looked like skin and bones were even more disgusting.
Fang Zheng was not surprised by this. After all, the monsters in the Chaos Land had all mutated to varying degrees. When he was at the front line, he even learned some techniques from the old commander about how to identify the level of the Chaos Land he was in by judging the appearance of these monsters. According to the classification of the Temple, the Chaos Land was divided into three levels.
The Northland Fortress was located at the first level. The monsters here looked no different from ordinary beasts, but because of the erosion of chaos magic, they had some special abilities such as breathing fire. The group of magic wolves that Fang Zheng encountered at the beginning belonged to this kind of monsters.
The monsters in the second level area will become even more...uglier, and will appear as a mixture of multiple animals, but at least they can be identified. To put it bluntly, the monsters at this stage will look a little deformed, such as having two heads or three hands.
But the third level… the monsters in the areas with the most chaos erosion are not visible at all, or you can only guess what it is from its appearance. Sometimes, except for one shape that may still retain part of its original form, the rest of it has become a mess.
Judging from the current situation of these monsters, they are obviously the most serious, which means that Fang Zheng is currently in the third-level area. Of course, this is not without benefits for Fang Zheng, that is, generally speaking, humans cannot go deep into such places, so Fang Zheng only needs to deal with what he should deal with.
"Kill them."
Looking at the group of monsters in front of him, Fang Zheng snapped his fingers. Soon, the moment this group of monkey-like monsters rushed into the Zerg territory, a group of jumping insects suddenly jumped out from the ground. They spread their wings and leaped into the air, pressing the monsters to the ground like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.
“Squeak! Squeak!!”
Faced with the sudden attack of the springtail, these monsters were also shocked. They desperately waved their sharp claws, trying to tear the shell of the springtail. At the same time, Fang Zheng could also see that the tumors on these monsters kept emitting dark green gas, which was very similar to the color of the fog here, and their tails transformed from venomous snakes turned around and tightly wrapped around the springtail, opening their mouths wide and biting at the springtail.
If this set of attacks was used on a human, an ordinary paladin would not be able to withstand it. However, for a Zergling whose body could resist bullets and whose defensive shell had been upgraded to level 3 by Fang Zheng, it was basically no different from a tickle. Therefore, the Zergling did not pay any attention to the attack of the Warcraft, which was not even a tickle to it. It simply pressed the Warcraft and opened its mouth, making a series of "Ah Wu Ah Wu" sounds... and that was it.
When the Zerglings scattered, only incomplete corpses remained on the fungal blanket. Even these corpses were soon completely wrapped, swallowed, digested, and transformed into fungal blanket tumors by the wriggling fungal blanket. The Zerg will not let go of any useful thing, even if it is just a corpse.
But for Fang Zheng, he could feel more.
When the fungal blanket wrapped around the corpses of the monsters, Fang Zheng could feel a chaotic force inside the corpses struggling to penetrate into the fungal blanket. However, before it could even stand up and shout "I'll be a hero again in thirty years", it was knocked down by the fungal blanket and disappeared in a matter of minutes like Yang Chun Bai Xue without even a shadow.
It seems everything is going well.
After confirming that the Zerg would not be corrupted by chaos and could even devour chaos in return, Fang Zheng finally felt relieved and then turned on his personal terminal.
Soon, a map of the entire Western Continent appeared on it.
With the help of the "satellite" made by Nymph, Fang Zheng can now directly confirm the situation of the entire Western Continent through satellite images, but this is not omnipotent. Currently, the satellite of Tiandao Palace can only identify the territory of the Fire Country and where Fang Zheng is currently located. Other areas may be eroded by chaos, and appear in a "fog of war"-like form on the satellite map when playing RTS.
Hmm... Fang Zheng saw that this was becoming more and more like a real-time strategy game.
Through his personal terminal and satellite, Fang Zheng successfully controlled the rapid expansion of his Zerg. After confirming that the fungal blanket could resist and even devour the power of Chaos, he changed his strategy and regarded the expansion of the fungal blanket as the most important first factor. Zerg Queens roamed around to spread fungal blanket tumors, while Zerglings and Hydralisks hid underground at the edge of the fungal blanket, so that they could take action at any time to deal with enemies that might attack the Zerg territory.
In fact, there are quite a few enemies.
Just like in the Northern Fortress, those monsters corrupted by Chaos were extremely sensitive to the invasion of Order. Especially after Fang Zheng successively built three sub-bases and began to expand, those Chaos monsters seemed to have been stabbed in the back (although this did seem to be the case), and they launched a crazy attack on the Zerg.
It was a nightmare.
Countless monsters of all kinds roared out of the forest, trying to destroy the insect swarm at all costs. Fang Zheng could see mutated cheetahs, poisonous snakes, and even crocodiles as big as yachts. Their bodies had also become corrupted by the erosion of chaos. Fang Zheng even saw a group of elephants—their trunks had barbs like fangs, and their bodies were covered with swollen and rotten tumors. Their legs had completely melted and turned into a snail-like shape. They rushed over with their huge bodies full of tumors at a speed that a snail could never achieve.
If they were facing humans, even the elite Paladins of the Northern Fortress would suffer heavy casualties. But for Fang Zheng's swarm of insects, the attacks of these Chaos monsters were completely useless.
So when these chaos monsters rushed out of the forest with great momentum, intending to teach the invaders a lesson they would never forget, what they faced was an overwhelming swarm of insects.
The swarm of Zerglings and Hydralisks completely engulfed these aggressive monsters. They were swallowed up before they even had time to make a wave.
The battle was even easier than when Fang Zheng was in the Northern Fortress. After all, he used the elite tactics of the Protoss at that time. But here, the advantages of the Zerg and the Chaos monsters were basically the same - a fierce and fearless human wave tactic.
And when the advantages of both sides are the same, then the only thing left is who is stronger.
It is obvious that the Chaos Monsters, which lack leadership, cannot be a match for the Zerg.
After discovering that the Chaos Monsters here were as fragile as Goblins, Fang Zheng immediately changed his plan. He had originally intended to adopt the strategy he had used in the North, which was to set up camp, advance steadily, and build defense towers all the way to the doorstep of the enemy's lair.
But after discovering that the Zerg had no problem fighting these Chaos monsters head-on, Fang Zheng immediately changed his battle plan and began to send Zergs to roam the forest, killing all the Chaos monsters that were alive. If they encountered a single one or a small group, he would directly send Zerglings and Hydralisks to rush over and tear it to pieces. If he encountered a big one, he would directly send the Suicide Swarm to come over and make a glorious and heroic self-destruction. If he encountered a flying one... Do you think the flying dragon is just a decoration?
Just as Fang Zheng was preparing to gather his troops and considering whether to make some "accidental contact" with the Fire Nation, the Zerg suddenly gave him feedback.
A strange race appeared in the Zerg's territory.
