Twenty minutes later, after eliminating the small groups of the myriad races, all the Zerg except for the Thunder Beasts scattered to scout the surrounding area.
Under the influence of the nanobots, Jiang Wang sped towards the location of the insect hive he had prepared on the map.
He found a total of 5 locations on the map that were favorable for Zerg to set up camp.
While these locations aren't exactly easy to defend or difficult to attack, they are still considered concealed places. More importantly, these locations are surrounded by areas where intense fighting occurs.
After running through two points, we finally decided to set up camp at the third point.
It's not that the first two spots weren't good enough; it's just that they weren't meant to be.
When Jiang Wang arrived at the first location, he found that a unit was already stationed nearby. If Jiang Wang chose to station at this location, it would greatly affect the development of the Zerg.
As for the second location, Jiang Wang felt a huge burst of spiritual energy even before he got close enough to get there.
According to Jiang Wang's estimation, even if they weren't high-level Platinum, it was still a fierce battle between several Platinum-level players.
In the past, Jiang Wang might have relied on the nanobots to join in the fun.
But now Jiang Wang has learned tactical retreat.
Avoid their sharp edge and let the Zerg develop first.
When Jiang Wang arrived at the third location, he found that apart from the traces of artillery bombardment and fighting, there was nothing else going on, so Jiang Wang decisively and quickly set up camp.
Some people might be thinking that the two later spots might be better.
All Jiang Wang could say was, "Don't have the mindset of a gambling addict."
It's like queuing. You're queuing perfectly well, even halfway through, when you see the queue next to you is faster, so you switch to that queue, only to find that the queue is slower now...
After much deliberation, you realize that you should have just kept it.
Moreover, location alone cannot determine everything.
Whether the later locations would be better or more advantageous for the insect hive is not that important to Jiang Wang. For now, development is the priority.
The worker bees quickly began digging into the terrain.
Although the rocky land on this continent is not as hard as that of Iron Rock Star, it has been compressed into an exceptionally firm texture after enduring countless battles.
It took a full half day to dig down to a depth of 1,000 meters.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Jiang Wang began to build the insect hive.
Meanwhile, the logistics troops on the other side.
After quickly arriving at the area where the front-line troops were located, Xingtu began rotation and resupply operations.
While their troops are capable in combat, they excel even more in other areas, such as maintenance and medical care...
Therefore, after joining the army, they were scattered and sent to various units to provide support.
Xingtu, as a general, was summoned to a camp.
The first thing he saw was a deputy commander in a high position. He merely glanced up at Xingtu and then spoke.
"Tell me, why did you lie about military intelligence?"
Hearing the cold words of Deputy Commander Lin Xu, Xing Tu's expression changed drastically. After all, in the current tense situation, if he were really accused of lying about military intelligence, beheading would not be an exaggeration!
He quickly explained.
"Injustice! When did I ever lie about military intelligence?!"
"Your unit claimed to have been ambushed by approximately 50,000 to 100,000 tribes near the crossroads, but when our rescue team was halfway there, you said the crisis was over. What's the reason for this? Are you playing tricks on the support troops?!"
Lin Xu's eyes were cold. For a deputy commander of a war zone, who could direct battles involving hundreds of millions of troops, this was a cold look.
A number of 100,000 people is an extremely small matter.
This matter would normally never have reached his ears.
Unfortunately, the person being investigated treated it as a case of falsely reporting military information.
For captain-level officers, a decision requires a combat-ready officer of level three or higher.
The first level is a leader like Zhang Juyan, who is responsible for overseeing the overall situation.
The second level is the commander, who has the right to independently command and fight.
The third level is the deputy commander.
He initially intended to execute the execution, but after glancing at the materials, he realized something was amiss.
According to reports from the reconnaissance unit, footprints of another branch of the military were indeed found at the scene.
Furthermore, a fierce battle ensued between the two sides.
However, apart from signs of fighting, there was no blood at the scene.
This reminded the deputy commander of someone, which is why he personally summoned Xingtu, the logistics captain, to confirm further.
"General, my troops were indeed attacked by a myriad of races, but a new recruit said he could handle it..."
Xingtu told him everything he knew in detail.
Lin Xu closed his eyes slightly, and after a long while, he slowly spoke.
"I understand, you can go back now."
After hearing Lin Xu's words, Xing Tu breathed a sigh of relief and got up to leave.
Although Lin Xu had already guessed Jiang Wang's identity, he didn't say anything and instead turned to look at the map.
As one of the few remaining Shadow Guard spies deeply embedded in the upper echelons of Star Alliance.
Although he was somewhat surprised by Jiang Wang's arrival, it was not enough to make him reveal his weakness.
The Shadowguards' heavy losses at the Star Alliance frontier allowed the New Forces to regain power, and they have been studying this battle, which the Shadowguards call a moment of shame, over and over again.
Several conclusions were ultimately drawn.
First, their equipment was inferior; Black Serpent's equipment put Shadow Guard at a disadvantage from the start.
Secondly, the decisiveness of the Black Serpent Force and the Star Alliance, their ability to kill without any mercy, is also the reason why only one masked man escaped from the Shadow Guard.
Finally, there's the factor of Jiang Wang. Although they don't have direct evidence that the Star Alliance's 'fungi' came from Jiang Wang, he is indeed a suspect, and Jiang Wang's Zerg did help the Star Alliance stabilize the situation on the front lines.
Otherwise, even if all the Shadow Guards were wiped out, as long as it allowed the myriad races to advance significantly and capture a crucial border region of the Star Alliance, then both sides would inevitably engage in stronger probing and larger-scale battles. In that case, the sacrifice of these Shadow Guards would have been worthwhile...
But unfortunately...
That's why Lin Xu wanted to confirm the report when he heard it sounded like something out of the Zerg.
Based on past experience, once Jiang Wang establishes a foothold on this battlefield...
While the higher-ups may look down on him, Jiang Wang will help alleviate immense pressure on the Star Alliance in the mid-to-lower-level battlefields...
At that time, even if he wanted to give the Star Alliance a good thrashing, he wouldn't be able to.
In the past, Lin Xu might have simply had Jiang Wang secretly eliminated.
However, Star Alliance is currently focusing most of its attention on the main battlefield and this flank battlefield.
Everything he does will be magnified.
It would be a loss to be discovered in order to eliminate Jiang Wang.
Therefore, even though he now knows that Jiang Wang has arrived at the flank battlefield, he cannot send a message out, nor can he find a way to eliminate Jiang Wang...
He didn't even know where Jiang Wang was now.
