Faced with abundant resources, the Zerg readily accepted them all.
The Zerg army has a very good appetite and can digest anything.
Even items like volcanic crystals can be easily crushed and eaten by the Zerg once they gain fire resistance.
Useful or useless, edible or inedible, put them all into the Zerg nest.
Everything was proceeding smoothly. Just when Zhao Zi'an thought everything would continue without any surprises, an unexpected incident occurred.
The two overlord-level magical beasts that had previously joined forces with Turtle Lord in the volcano, the Flame Horse and the Wind Eagle, abandoned their tribes and fled after the volcano erupted.
Because of the volcano's obstruction, the Zerg were unable to find their trail.
In addition, there were other magical beasts that hadn't been dealt with at the time, so Zhao Zian didn't pay much attention to the two of them.
As a result, when one of the Zerg armies arrived at the resource point that originally belonged to the Flame Horse, these two suddenly appeared.
This is a forest, but some of the trees are special, capable of producing flame fruits with flame-like patterns.
These fruits can aid in the training of fire-type magical beasts, and long-term consumption can enhance the fire damage of fire-type magical beasts.
As the Zerg army began to pick and carry the fruit, a worker ant seemed to sense something. It went up a tree to investigate.
These two dominant monsters suddenly attacked, killing the worker ant and clearing out a large number of insectoids in the surrounding area before fleeing.
The leading force in this group consisted of a Lightning Sheep and several undead creatures.
Although these undead creatures are also Platinum-level, the decision-making still has to be made by Lightning Sheep Leader Sheep Xiao Wen.
After these Platinum-level and above experts thoroughly investigated the inside of the resource point and found nothing unusual, they began patrolling outside the resource point.
Upon discovering the powerful spiritual energy fluctuations within the forest, the Zerg forces rushed to the scene immediately, but the two Platinum-level magical beasts had already escaped.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Zian, who possessed a comprehensive perspective, immediately relayed the order to the other three teams.
Finally, the entire Zerg army converged on the direction in which the two monsters had fled...
"Run! Run until your legs break, but no one will come to save you... Hehehe..."
Zhao Zian burst into hearty laughter.
...
"These damned bugs are like ghosts that won't leave you alone!"
"Old Ma, what do you think we should do?"
The Wind Eagle looked extremely grim and asked the Flame Horse beside it.
"We must head towards the human cities! These insects have now become a formidable force; in the forest, I doubt anyone can stop them!"
"Our only hope now is that we can infiltrate human cities and hopefully find strong individuals there to hold off these damned insects!"
As the Flame Horse galloped, it spoke to the Wind Eagle.
"That's the only way. We'll do as you said, disguise ourselves as humans and infiltrate human cities, then we'll just have to take it one step at a time..."
Feng Ying looked somewhat unwilling, after all, this forest was where he had lived his whole life.
However, this is the only way things can be at the moment.
The surrounding Zerg army drew closer.
However, these two overlord-level magical beasts concealed their presence.
In addition, my familiarity with the forest, gained from living there for so many years, also played a role.
For a time, the Zerg were unable to find them and could only continuously narrow down the search area.
Zhao Zian never expected that these two magical beasts would try to infiltrate a human city...
However, these two overlord-level magical beasts were well hidden.
However, the Zerg were so numerous that they thoroughly examined every inch of land, leaving no leaf or corner unchecked.
This thorough search quickly uncovered some anomalies.
These two overlord-level magical beasts were actually hiding in the river!
This river flows through the forest and then into the ocean.
Zhao Zian had previously cleaned it up with poison, which significantly reduced the number of piranhas and other aquatic creatures inside.
Furthermore, this part of the river in the forest is now polluted by toxins, making the living environment extremely harsh, and aquatic creatures from other places are not willing to migrate here to settle down.
These two overlord-level magical beasts have been quietly staying in the water, hiding for so long.
Fortunately, the Zerg army noticed something amiss while fetching water, which ultimately forced the two overlord-level monsters out.
Zhao Zian immediately mobilized the Zerg forces to capture them.
However, one of these magical beasts is a horse, and the other is an eagle.
They were all highly agile magical beasts, and when they kept fleeing towards human cities, the Zerg army almost failed to catch them.
These two overlord-level magical beasts dodged left and right, and somehow managed to escape to the outside of the forest.
A phantom image of a human city could already be seen in the distance, but Zhao Zian's avatar of faith had already caught up with them.
A majestic embodiment of faith stood directly in front of the two demonic beasts.
A large number of powerful Zerg warriors from the rear also rushed over.
They directly surrounded the two overlord-level magical beasts.
In front of them were the embodiment of faith, and behind them were a large number of powerful members of the Zerg faction.
"Let's give it our all! Although the guy ahead is unfathomable, he's all alone. We don't need to defeat him; we just need to escape from him, and the human city is just ahead!"
The Flame Horse gritted its teeth and said sharply.
"Then let's see who can stop us! There are two of us, and I don't believe that guy can stop us all!"
Fengying agreed in response.
At this moment, both overlord-level magical beasts transformed into human form in order to better blend into human cities.
The Flame Horse was poised to strike on the ground, while the Wind Eagle had taken to the air.
The wind eagle's body transformed into a human form, but two eagle wings suddenly sprouted from its back, transforming only a part of it into its true form.
Immediately, the two lunged at Zhao Zian's avatar of faith.
However, with a flash of golden light, both of these overlord-level magical beasts were brought to their original positions.
The wind eagle maintained its flapping wing posture, while the fire horse looked on in disbelief.
"This...power..."
The Flame Horse only got halfway through its story.
Then the stitched-together monster that followed punched him into a bloody pulp.
The other wind eagle had its head smashed by Xiao Yi.
At this moment, figures flickered outside Forest City, as if someone had noticed the fluctuations in their aura.
There were also signs of other races around, and they began to approach.
There are humans, elves, orcs, and so on...
After all, many adventurers or mercenaries from Forest City come to the forest to hunt monsters in exchange for cultivation resources.
We are now outside the forest, and there are no more trees to provide cover...
"It's red bean paste..."
