"The swarm is supreme, and to join it is an honor for these immigrants!" Abathur said each word with utmost seriousness.
If we're talking about sheer fanaticism for the Zerg, this evolutionary master is definitely number one.
It's perfectly normal to say something like that.
Sometimes, Su Bai even felt that he, as the lord, was not half as diligent and conscientious as Abathur.
Upon reflection, I feel quite ashamed.
In the future, I should learn from my subordinates and be more diligent and hardworking.
“However, among all the lords of the Redemption Land, you are probably the first one, as a member of the territory’s forces, to possess infected creatures,” Zhao Ganwu continued.
"It seems I am destined to rise in the Land of Redemption!" Su Bai laughed loudly: "When the number of infected soldiers increases in the future, you will be in charge of them. Combined with your talents and skills, you will surely unleash a powerful fighting force!"
Zhao Ganwu nodded emphatically, "I will do my best to make you one of the most powerful lords in the Land of Redemption!"
"Very good!" Su Bai patted Zhao Ganwu on the shoulder, his eyes showing great interest: "You and I are brothers, working together, we will surely achieve great things!"
As the saying goes, it's easy to find a thousand soldiers, but hard to find a good general.
The territory now boasts four incredibly powerful heroes: the Queen of Blades, Zhao Ganwu, Dehaka, and Abathur.
In future wars, with them leading the swarms, they will surely be invincible.
This allows the Zerg's territory to expand more rapidly.
Currently, the entire desolate wilderness has been brought under Su Bai's control.
Furthermore, the fungal tumors continued to divide, reaching a total number of 524.
Almost half of the desolate wilderness was covered with fungal carpet.
Therefore, the entire wilderness now can be described as the insect swarm's backyard.
Buildings can only be constructed within the territory, but springtails, hydralisks, and cockroaches can rampage and frolic freely in the wilderness.
The expansion of our power must not stop.
Next, Su Bai's target was the desolate desert to the east of the barren wilderness.
Prior reconnaissance has yielded some information.
The barren desert covers a much larger area, more than five times the size of the desolate wilderness.
Among them, lords, lone wolves, local forces, and monsters are more numerous and stronger.
But Su Bai was confident that he could win smoothly.
Their reliance is on a powerful swarm of insects, as well as the newly added Zhao Ganwu.
He then took out a medium-sized upgrade stone, intending to upgrade the infected immigrant camp.
The next moment.
The bright silver stone floated into the air automatically.
In a flash, it transformed into a streak of light and merged into the infected immigrant camp.
[Note: Medium Upgrade Stone successfully used!]
[Notification: Your building—the Infected Immigrant Camp—has been upgraded to Lv19!]
[Note: After leveling up 18 times, you can now hatch 8,000 infected civilians every 24 hours!]
“Old Zhao, you can now command a total of eight thousand infected soldiers every day,” Su Bai said with a smile.
"This upgrade stone is indeed useful. In the blink of an eye, it upgraded a new building to level nineteen." Zhao Ganwu's eyes lit up, revealing a hint of excitement.
He continued, "Eight thousand infected creatures is quite a force. When those foreign lords see it, it will probably rekindle their fear of facing special disasters and infection crises."
"I wonder if there's a time limit for the infected civilians that hatch." Su Bai turned his head and stared at the infected immigrant camp.
Looking through the glass of the window, you can clearly see that it is filled with countless cocoons.
These cocoons, interwoven with green and purple, are constantly growing and expanding.
“I think the infected that hatch should have a limited lifespan,” Zhao Ganwu said. “After all, during the infection crisis, the infected that I directly assimilated could only survive for twelve hours before automatically dying.”
“You’re right! If the survival time is unlimited, then as the building level increases, the number of infected creatures will explode, which is simply too overpowered.” Su Bai nodded slightly in agreement.
Just then, the system's mechanical synthesized voice suddenly sounded.
[Notification: Congratulations, Lord Su Bai of the Dragon Kingdom! You now own more than 15 buildings!]
[Hint: The number of buildings you currently possess far exceeds that of any other lord who arrived at the same time!]
[Hint: This will trigger the hidden achievement "Building Maniac"!]
[Hint: Congratulations! You have obtained the exclusive reward for the hidden achievement!]
Now, you can choose one of the following three options as your final reward!
Another hidden achievement has been triggered.
Are you that lucky?
Su Bai was overjoyed, a broad smile spreading across his face.
He quickly opened the territory information page and glanced at it briefly.
[Territory: Su Bai]
[Level: Lv19]
Area: 130,000 square meters
Completeness: 100%
[Reputation Points: 1500?]
[Reputation Title: Rising Fame]
[Kill Value: 2160]
[Kill Title: Bloodthirsty Hunter]
[Territory Buildings: Hatchery Lv19, Manor Lv9, Main Nest Lv18, Evolution Chamber Lv10, Infected Immigrant Camp Lv19, Spire Lv6, Bomb Nest Lv6, 5 Spire Crawlers Lv18, 3 Spore Crawlers Lv18, Watchtower Lv18]
As expected, there were a total of sixteen buildings, just over the number "15".
However, most of them are defensive buildings.
There are only three buildings that can produce combat units.
Immediately afterwards, three lines of information popped up in front of Su Bai's eyes.
[Optional Reward 1: 500,000 Souls]
[Optional Reward 2: Large Resource Supply Box *3]
[Optional Reward 3: Hatchery Opens Self-Recruitment of Queen Insects]
"Very good!"
"I searched high and low without finding it, but then it came to me effortlessly!"
"The Hatchery can finally spend Souls to recruit King Insects on its own!"
Su Bai grinned, his face practically beaming with joy.
With 1 billion souls, the first optional reward only offers a paltry 500,000 souls, so skip it.
Optional reward two, large resource supply boxes, are rare but not urgently needed, so skip them.
Only the third reward is the most precious and the most urgently needed.
With 1 billion souls at their disposal, the swarm's numbers will immediately surge.
Food shortages and insufficient supply.
This problem will soon be brought to the forefront and become very serious.
If insufficient supplies prevent the large-scale recruitment of troops, it will be fatal to the development of the territory.
At the same time, this is also a problem that Su Bai has always been worried about.
