At that time, although it was large enough to fill the underground pit, it was definitely not large enough to surround the Crystal City with its own body.
"Well, the huge form is the breeding form of the insect mother." Xu Ying said.
She was somewhat familiar with this insect queen.
After all, this is a giant beast created by them in another time and space, and she is one of the participants.
"The insect queen's gene pool is extremely complex, allowing her to breed a wide variety of giant insects. However, because her genes are so disorganized, while she can reproduce, her offspring are infertile."
"This is also what we need and what we have created. Our intention in creating the Worm Queen was to create a giant, automated biological war machine that could quickly give birth to a large number of powerful offspring, but these offspring can only be used as weapons, otherwise..."
Everyone understands what Xu Ying means.
The insect queen reproduces so quickly, and her offspring seem to be considered adults when they are born.
If its offspring can continue to reproduce, it will no longer be a war machine but a disaster-making machine.
The reproduction speed of insects is extremely terrifying!
If there is no restriction, there will only be a continuous and indelible insect plague.
"Each time it reproduces on a large scale, its body expands to an extremely large size. After reproduction is complete, the insect's body, stretched dozens of times its size, is difficult to recover, so it abandons its original body and molts."
Xu Ying continued to explain.
"It doesn't normally shed its skin. It only does so when a large number of offspring are born. I didn't expect you to see it."
"So that's how it is."
Ji Chaoyang nodded, and then continued to tell what happened at the World Tree.
When the giant worm stopped breeding and crawled out of its abandoned body, the alien invaders' chariot was only twenty kilometers away from the World Tree.
Ji Chaoyang also ordered to stop the nuclear weapons attack.
And just after the World Tree stopped attacking, the Zerg suddenly started to move!
The densely packed giant insects suddenly began to surge!
They collectively launched a charge towards the tank group!
These newly born swarms of insects obviously received orders from the insect mother. Under the instructions of their "mother", they collectively rushed towards the tanks that even nuclear bombs could not destroy!
Inside the World Tree at that time, everyone was watching this scene nervously.
In fact, they had already anticipated it.
Since the insect queen has given birth to such a large army of insects, she will naturally take action at some point!
What surprised them was that the Zerg Queen itself also moved along with the Zerg army.
However, its speed was not fast, but just like when it surrounded Crystal City before, it looked very leisurely.
It's like strolling in a garden.
The swarms of insects around it swarmed past it in batches, much faster than its speed.
And its target was quickly determined by everyone in the World Tree.
Obviously, the direction it is moving towards is the location of the lake!
And at some point, an anaconda head emerged from the lake.
The rock-like scales still glow with a chilling cold light under the sunlight.
Its dark eyes, like the abyss, were now staring in the direction of the insect mother.
Finally, the insect queen came to the edge of the bottomless lake, and then her body, which had shrunk a lot, drilled into the lake.
Soon, the body that was several hundred meters long disappeared.
All that was left was a long trace of movement on the ground and a thick, somewhat broken insect skin surrounding the crystal city.
There is also the Zerg army that is still charging towards the tank legion without stopping.
"Wow... You just left your newborn offspring here to die, and then ran away..."
Zeng Tao said that this insect mother is a bit cruel.
"The offspring it creates are merely weapons that obey orders." Xu Ying shook her head. "Even if those insects don't die in battle, they only live for a few days. There's nothing cruel about that."
"If we really want to talk about cruelty, then we are more cruel, because the insect mother was modified by us through genetic modification technology."
Xu Ying pointed at herself and then at everyone around her.
"That's us in another time and space... Well, that's about the same." Zhao Xiaochuan spread his hands.
The giant insects quickly rushed to the front of the chariot.
But they did not attack the chariots. Instead, some of them pounced on the chariots, and some of them hit the front of the chariots.
Each chariot was surrounded by hundreds of giant insects.
Their purpose is not to destroy the tanks, but to slow down their forward speed!
This should be the order given by the giant insect.
It seems that the giant insect also saw clearly that it was basically impossible to stop these chariots and could only delay them.
This command is useful.
Countless insects pounced and pushed, effectively blocking the chariot's advance.
But this situation did not last long.
Because the tank opened fire for the first time.
Accompanied by roars and flames, the broken bodies of the insects flew everywhere, and the sky was filled with transparent, yellow and green insect body fluids.
With the time flow speed increased a hundred times, everyone in the World Tree could be seen very clearly in slow motion.
However, the firepower of the tank left them speechless.
