I Am the Swarm

"My lord, the Riken people captured this time are all ordinary soldiers, and the highest rank is only a sergeant. They don't know much about it. They only know that the Riken tribe has indeed experienced technological advancement several times over the years. An outbreak, but the specific reason is unknown." In the swarm network, Morgan was reporting the situation to Rowan.

He thought for a while and continued: "However, they have not heard of any information about alien races. Does this mean that there are no other civilized races behind them? After all, if another civilization helps them improve their technology, it does not matter. Show up, so what are you drawing?"

Luo Wen shook his head and said, "We can't completely deny this possibility. The needs of civilizations are different, just like ratmen. Ordinary ratmen have no way of knowing that there are swarms of insects hidden behind them."

Hearing this, Morgan nodded. This is the reason. Although he thinks that the swarm is a very special kind of existence, the other party is also a special form of civilized race.

"How is Reggie and the others? Can you find anything based on the other party's external performance?" Rowan continued to ask.

"They are all old antiques from a hundred years ago, and they have been seriously out of touch with the Riken people today. It is impossible to get useful information just by observing the outside. But they speculate that there should be some high-level people who know the details in those surface bases." Level officers. But if we don’t expose too much strength, it will be difficult to prevent them from escaping.”

"It will take some time for the infiltrators to be ready. It seems that they still need a good script to continue acting with them for a while. Now, the actors for the first half of the plot have been prepared for you. It depends on your performance this time, Sarah. " Luo Wen said after a moment of pondering.

"I will live up to my expectations and dominate my lord."

The sky was getting dark gradually, and several lampposts with a height of more than 100 meters had been erected at the assembly site, and the high-power bulbs radiated light. Coupled with various other lights on the construction site and on the spacecraft, I believe that even in the dark night, this place can be fully illuminated.

"Be careful, everyone. According to the analysis from the staff department, those things are likely to be nocturnal creatures. They may be attacked at night. Everyone will take a two-hour shift and rest for two hours. We will be on duty tonight."

"Rest first, cheer up at night, and be careful of attacks."

In the teams of various numbers, similar orders are being issued.

On the construction site, several giant excavators with a height of more than 30 meters have been assembled. As long as the remaining machinery is assembled and the work is overtime, it is expected that the construction will officially start tomorrow.

Time soon came late at night, the construction site was still brightly lit, and a large number of Riken engineers were shuttled back and forth. And the multiple teams responsible for vigilance did not relax in the slightest, and some team members even used drugs to make themselves more awake.

Because it is getting closer and closer to the time when the patrol was attacked, the military staff analyzed that if the opponents were just low-intelligence creatures, out of instinct, they would have a fixed hunting time.

Suddenly, the monitoring instrument sounded a piercing alarm.

"Here we come, captain. We detected abnormal vibrations underground. Something is coming up!" A team member in charge of monitoring the equipment shouted loudly, startling the others.

"Notify the engineering team to withdraw quickly!" If there is a war in a while, the assembly site will definitely become a battlefield. Although the place itself is a bait, the personnel still have to be preserved.

The engineering team more or less understood their mission. If they were not attacked, then assembling the machinery would be their real mission. If they were attacked, they would naturally have to run faster.

Because there was a plan in advance, although there was a little panic, the evacuation of these people was very fast.

But the things rushing out of the ground were faster, and holes were suddenly opened in the ground, which greatly exceeded the expectations of the Rickon tribe.

"Why did so many holes suddenly appear, why didn't we find them before?" A Riken engineer looked at the terrifying creature pounced on him, and left his last words.

"MD, those guys are going to court martial!"

"Run!"

"What the hell is this!"

"Ah!" There was chaos in the communication channel, and various screams sounded almost at the same time.

After a short period of stupefaction, the soldiers in charge of security finally reacted.

"Cover their retreat!"

"Fire at will, cross guard, don't let them come!"

In the night sky, all kinds of fiery red light beams are flying around. It seems that even if the technology changes, the Rickon tribe still insists on taking the route of energy weapons.

At this time, another discussion was also going on.

"Impossible, I have checked carefully several times before, and there is only that one hole in a five-kilometer radius."

"Look here!" The video was slowed down dozens of times, and a flat ground on the screen suddenly sunken, and the soil covering it fell, revealing a black hole, and then some creatures more than 30 centimeters long quickly crawled out.

"They dug it now, these things have extremely strong digging capabilities!"

"Isn't it normal that they live underground and dig holes?"

"No, look at this picture." This is a close-up close-up of an unknown creature. In the picture, the creature spread out its eight jointed limbs, and the lower half of the jointed limbs are connected by webbed membranes, which makes it look Looks like a gliding drone.

From the point of view of the pounce, this should be a picture captured by the personal terminal of an engineer or soldier of the Ricken tribe when its owner was attacked.

It was a rare biologist of the Ricken tribe who raised his opinion. He pointed to the flickering arthropods on the screen and said to others: "Look at this. From the appearance, these long knife-like limbs are huge. Probability is their weapon. The method of use is roughly like this."

After stabbing with both hands, he continued: "But this body structure is not suitable for excavation. Looking at its other structures, none of them can be related to excavation."

"Look back at the video just now." He cut the screen back to the first video of the ground subsidence and said: "Look here, after the hole is exposed, there is a short pause. I guess, there should be another kind of excavator who is good at digging." The creature, after going out of the cave, got out of the way, and then these things rushed out."

"So?" Analyzing it from the perspective of a professional, one can see many different things, and many military leaders nodded, agreeing with the biologist's point of view.

"So, I guess, it is not yet known whether this kind of creature has advanced intelligence, but they have a very strong division of labor and skillful cooperation, at least they are a social creature. This characteristic is similar to that of our planet Riken It is very similar to a kind of insect, why not call them Zerg."

As a result, the Zerg Swarm, as Zerg, stepped onto the stage of Stars and Seas.
