Chapter 37 - Medium-level Zerg

Putting the spiritual potion and the dark purple stone into the pendant storage. As for the rest, Su Yu asked Wang Anan to distribute them. Now the six of them are a team. It is best to distribute these things to improve the overall strength so as to cope with the next tough battle.

Su Yu said so, Wang Anan and others would not refuse, but: "You only want these two ma? You don't want others?" Wang Anan said, lowered her head and took a quick look at the coffee table, picked up the only medium-sized protective shield and a bottle of healing pills, and handed them to Su Yu: "Take two more of these ba."

The others also nodded and said yes, thinking that Su Yu should take more. After thinking about it, Su Yu accepted it. Just as he was about to get up and leave, he suddenly remembered something and took out three space storage devices and gave them to Wang Anan and other two: "I opened a few gift boxes before coming here, and took them out."

Wang Anan saw the things in her hand clearly: "!!!"

She wanted to refuse, Su Yu said: "You can wait until the game is over and return to me after returning to Earth."

It has come to this point, Wang Anan can't not understand Su Yu's meaning. In this case, continuing to refuse will seem very artificial. Touching the storage device that she had been thinking about day and night, she couldn't help but chuckled a few times, then Wang Anan glanced at the things on the coffee table, she assured Su Yu earnestly: "We will remember all these things. Comrade Su Yu, don't worry, when we return to Earth, the country will definitely give you subsidies!"

"The country will definitely give money. By then, there will be enough jade. It's no problem to eat one or lose ten." Li Yanglin interrupted, staring at the space storage device in Wang Anan's hand. Su Yu gave Wang Anan three in total. It's obvious that there must be one of his. He was greedy, very greedy.

Su Yu smiled and didn't answer. His attention was completely on another thing now. He didn't want to stay in the living room and waste time. He found a reason to leave. Wang Anan and others didn't think much and agreed casually. Gu Yan looked at Su Yu meaningfully.

Just like before, he walked through the corridor and came to the empty storage room.

This time, he pushed the door open calmly. Everything was normal in the storage room. There was nothing abrupt. Su Yu came to the blood pool. The blood pool was still in the state when he left. The surface of the pool was calm, the mantis and the soldier worker ant were sinking into it to repair their injuries.

Su Yu squatted down, his face reflected in the blood pool. After a few seconds, he put his hand into the blood pool. The cold bright red liquid approched, wrapping his hand tenderly. It was a very strange feeling, as if the blood pool under his hand was also alive.

The mental power hooked the space storage device on his wrist. In a place invisible to everyone, a dark purple stone appeared from the palm of Su Yu's hand in the blood pool. The liquid in the blood pool began to shake, it seemed to slide across the palm and back of Su Yu's hand. The bright red liquid of the blood pool wrapped around the stone and instantly pulled it to the bottom of the blood pool.

'Very gentle a.' Su Yu thought.

[You are the supreme King of the Zerg, you deserve our service.] The system took advantage of every opportunity and started to brag when there was a disagreement.

Su Yu's expression was calm. He had learned to selectively block the sound of the system. His fingertips casually swung in the blood pool and retracted his hand. At this time, he still didn't understand that the system was not just for bragging, but explained to him while bragging, but he couldn't comprehend.

How could things related to Zerg be 'peaceful'? Even this seemingly calm energy pool has a very terrifying 'digestion' ability. This ability is not only reflected in the 'digestion' of energy stones, but also includes other things. As long as they fall into the pool, the blood pool will swallow them.

When Su Yu put his hand into the blood pool, he would feel gentle comfort, but if other creatures dared to put their hands in, they would not be able to take their hands out again, as they would be directly melted and swallowed by the blood pool. Even the energy pool of the high-level Zerg base would do more terrifying things, actively hunting for 'prey' that did not belong to the Zerg near the energy pool.

However, few people know this, because Zerg will not allow other life to get close to the Zerg pool in the base. If this happens, either the intruder will die, die in the Zerg pool or die at the hands of the Zerg, or the Zerg will be destroyed as a whole, and will be unable to stop the invader.

Su Yu stared at the blood pool and waited patiently.

Deep in the blood pool, the dark purple stone was changing significantly. The rich purple gradually became lighter, and finally turned into a light purple-white color. Then, after an almost inaudible 'click' sound, the stone, like the previous energy stone, was completely shattered and merged into the blood pool.

Su Yu called up the hatching page that the system had specially digitized in his mind.

Skipping the familiar low-level Zerg list, his eyes moved directly to the energy value he had in the upper right corner.

[Energy posseded 5 000]

As soon as Wang Anan took out the dark purple energy stone, an indescribable sense of restlessness emerged from Su Yu's heart, which was even stronger and more eager than the feeling of facing the jade and the two energy stones before.

Su Yu instantly understood what this stone was. It should be another energy stone, and the energy contained in it was higher than all the energy stones he had seen.

He knew that this energy stone might contain a lot of energy, but he didn't expect it to be so high. He had eaten so many jades, including the two energy stones he had obtained before, but they were only a few hundred points. And this, just one energy stone, has reached an astonishing number.

[This is a high-level energy stone, which is also an extremely rare energy mine in the interstellar space. Only one can provide power consumption for a starship for a month.] The system explained, sadly, there are still too few Zergs hatched, King actually has to find energy by himself. This is simply unforgivable in the Zerg.

Instantly having 5 000 energy, this feeling is comparable to getting rich overnight.

100 energy can hatch a low-level Zerg mantis, which means that now as long as Su Yu is willing, he can instantly have a small army of mantises. Fifty mantises, regardless of whether they can crush other team forces, it must be very difficult for other contestants to meet Su Yu.

Su Yu stood by the blood pool and fell into deep thought. He couldn't use all the energy to hatch mantises. Although doing so could directly and simply solve this problem, he had to hatch Zerg to deal with this competition, and he had to reserve some energy to wait for the construction of a medium-level Zerg base in the future.

Flower Explosion Bug? Consumables, must be used in large quantities to be effective.

Blood Fantasy Spore? Indiscriminate attack, in addition to Su Yu, other teammates will also be hit.

Mud Worm? Turn a large area into a mud swamp... Wang Anan's ability is fire.

Then hatch soldier worker ants? It was not a good choice either. The previous battle between the soldier worker ant and the orcs made Su Yu clearly know that the soldier worker ants were not the main fighting Zergs. They relied entirely on their strength to charge. Apart from that, they only had the mouthparts as an 'attack weapon', which was very restrictive.

'Let's hatch ten mantises first ba.' Su Yu was helpless.

Holding a large amount of energy in his hand, but unable to make a decision, it was a bit of a headache.

[King... You can try to hatch a medium-level Zerg.] The system couldn't bear Su Yu's troubles, after several hesitations, it finally chose to make this suggestion.

'Hatch a medium-level Zerg? Didn't you say that the level of the hatched Zerg cannot exceed the level of the base ma? Only high-level bases can hatch all Zergs.' Su Yu still remembered what the system said at the beginning.

[It can be hatched, but the probability of failure is very high.] The system hesitated and said, [You can inject energy into the energy pool and turn the entire energy pool into a cocoon, so that there is a chance to hatch a medium-level Zerg across levels... The price is that no matter whether the hatching result is successful or failed, this energy pool will be exhausted and completely destroyed.]

In other words, if he choose to hatch a medium-level Zerg, the energy pool will be disposable and will be scrapped after use.

'What kind of medium-level Zerg will be hatched?' Su Yu asked.

[There is no pattern, because this is not a medium-level Zerg base, the medium-level Zerg that will be hatched is also uncertain. However, no matter which medium-level Zerg, their abilities are far superior to those of low-level Zerg.] The system said.

Su Yu was silent for a moment and decided to take a gamble. As for the issue of the destruction of the low-level Zerg base, he would leave here after the game. It didn't matter whether the low-level Zerg base existed. Even if it continued to exist, it might bring him hidden dangers. Thinking about it this way, destroying it would just solve this problem.

After making a choice, Su Yu stood up, took a last look at the blood pool, turned to leave. It took time for the Zerg to hatch, he couldn't stand here and wait.

After Su Yu left, a mantis and a soldier worker ant crawled out of the blood pool. The energy from the energy stone thrown into the blood pool completely healed their injuries. Both of them wanted to crawl out to see Su Yu, but they were pulling each other and no one could come out.

Back in the living room, the things on the coffee table had been divided, and the scattered gift boxes were cleared to the side.

"Su Yu, you're here la! Just in time, we were talking about the medal." Wang Anan waved his hand: "We think it's better for each person to take a medal. Even if we are separated, as long as one of us passes the game, the whole team will advance together."

Su Yu had no objection, and Wang Anan handed the last promotion medal on the coffee table to Su Yu.

It was late at night, but the six people in the living room had no intention of sleeping. The medal position announcement was like a knife hanging over their heads, they didn't know when it would fall.

The six people talked a few words from time to time, discussing the two contradictory clues of 'there is no center in the maze' and 'the center exists in the maze', but it was useless. These two clues contradicted each other.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Yu's heartstrings were skretched, ten small groups of strange consciousness appeared in his mind, which proved that the ten mantises had been hatched. Closing his eyes, Su Yu chose to inject a thousand energies into the blood pool. He had a hunch that he would win.

[The medal announcement has entered the countdown, please be prepared.]

[The announcement time is two hours, please pay attention to the time.]

[Tip: The small map function is temporarily turned on on the rule light screen. Contestants can click on the map to query. Green dot is medal without ownership, red dot is medal held by a contestant. During the medal announcement period, the mechanical maze will stop changing.]

[Countdown starts: 10…9…8...3…2…1.]

[Open the announcement.]
