Chapter Fifty-Five: Jehine's Lust for Power

In this battle, the swarm fleet lost eleven corrupters, more than 300 alien dragons (wiped out by the strange abilities on some small tentacle appendages), and the two nest insect lords who were the main force were also injured to varying degrees.

This loss may not seem like a big deal, but it exposes a major flaw in the Swarm fleet.

That is, a medium-sized health guard warship that lacks strong firepower to escort the Hive Insect Lord as the main force.

As the main force of the fleet, the Corruptor is excellent against small and medium-sized assault ships, but it is difficult to pose a threat to large enemy assault ships.

Its firepower projection is insufficient, and while the weapon is powerful enough, the firing speed is not enough, allowing large, well-armored enemy ships to force their way through the defensive circle with their armor and structural strength.

Moreover, the Swarm fleet is also extremely lacking in flagship-level units, lacking the power to make a final decision in a large-scale space war.

Stokoff reported back both of these deficiencies with the report and hoped that the Juggernaut would give clear instructions on the fleet's next move.

Although the battle ended with the swarm fleet being repulsed, it was not for nothing.

During the retreat, Storkov ordered the king bug to collect a large number of tentacle amputated limbs and bring them back, and these precious biological tissues were loaded into the abdominal sac of the king worm carried by the corruptor who sent back the report this time.

Upon receiving this news, Xue Hua immediately ordered the Corruptor to carry the King Worm to the base area of the mountainside insect swarm controlled by Zagara, where the King Worm unloaded all the biological samples, and the mother worm sucked these severed limb samples into Abbathhar's evolutionary pit.

In response to Stokov's report on the flaws in the fleet and the further instructions it requested, Xue Hua also issued a separate order.

The latest report on the whereabouts of the fleet brought back by the king worm shows that they are still on the outskirts of the galaxy.

Xue Hua ordered them to return to the swarm base in the asteroid belt to resupply, and planned to hatch two more nest Worm Lords and thirty Corruptors to replenish the swarm fleet.

As for the problem of the fleet's flaws, Xue Hua can't do anything about it now.

The Zerg's air force units are still the same units in the game, and they haven't found any biological genes that are suitable for transforming into air force biological battleship units recently.

Specimen No. 1, which originally had a glimmer of hope, was also shelved because it could not remove the genetic lock, so Xue Hua could only forcibly make up for the flaws in the fleet's configuration with quantity for the time being.

But at the same time, he also ordered Abbather to shift his research direction once again, focusing on the tentacle limbs that were brought back and the biological genes that had the potential to be transformed into battleship units, in order to create a new type of biological warship that could compensate for the fleet's shortcomings in the shortest possible time.

As for those empty astral escape dormancy chambers, according to his speculation, it should be that the colony ship of the astral spirits discovered the true face of the planet after being attracted by the huge biological force field fluctuations emitted by the planet and approaching it, but was destroyed or damaged when fleeing, so it caused the empty dormant chamber to appear in the outer space orbit of that planet.

As for the weird, more like some kind of creature planet......

Xue Hua could only sigh that the boundless universe was too weird, and the Zerg still had a long way to go if they wanted to become a meat eater or even a master in this universe!

......

After learning about the latest movements of the fleet and making mission arrangements, Xue Hua diverted his attention from the mind of the main nest.

He opened his eyes slightly, and found a steaming dinner on the small wooden table in front of him.

Smelling the rich aroma of wheat cakes and the barbecue strips with vegetables, he couldn't help but smile warmly at the corners of his mouth.

Suddenly, he felt a nervous gaze look in the direction of the kitchen, and he glanced up.

But I just saw a small animal hiding at the door of the kitchen with half of its face exposed, and looked at him quietly, with a little grievance.

Noticing that Xue Hua looked over, the little animal suddenly snorted in a panic, and retracted back behind the door with a brush.

Xue Hua shook his head amusedly, then took out the tableware and began to feast on the food in front of him.

And seeing that he ate so deliciously, Funia, who was hiding behind the door, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Hmm~ It turns out that it's not that people's cooking skills have regressed, but that the owner was thinking about things just now~~~

Scared me to death, scared me to death~

Funia patted her chest with peace of mind, breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked to Xue Hua with a drink and put it down.

"Master, eat slowly, this is made for you by Funia~ anti-greasy, it's delicious~"

"Thank you~Little girl~You are really my sweet baby~~" Xue Hua rubbed the little girl's head dotingly, bringing her a series of "sighs, hey~" laughter~

"Wow~Funia~ You opened a small stove for the master again~~ Woo... I'm going to drink it too~~" Anne suddenly appeared at the top of the stairs, puffed out her face, rushed up and hugged her sister, and rolled with her to the side of the cushion pile to frolic in her screams.

The delicious dinner and two little girls with very healing properties made Xue Hua's originally slightly heavy mood relax a lot.

Once again, he realized the beauty of life and hoped to keep it forever.

After dinner, Funiaa was still in charge of cleaning up the dishes, while Anne continued to go about her chores, which seemed to never finish.

There were two virtuous mercenaries in charge of housework, and Xue Hua suddenly calmed down again.

He walked into the bedroom, sat on the edge of the bed, lit a cigarette, pushed open the blinds, and admired the enchanting night sky of this world......

......

......

In the midst of the resplendent royal palace of Rugoin, King Jehein also stood on the terrace enjoying the night view.

But what he saw was not the stars in the sky, but the lights in the city of Lugoin at his feet.

This terrace is his favorite place to stay, because it is the only place that gives him a sense of power.

It is an open secret of the entire city of Lugoin, so he attaches great importance to power, and he does not want to give up even the tiniest rights to anyone.

But there is no way, the person who put him on the throne not only has great prestige in both the government and the opposition, but also holds a terrifying hidden force in his own hands.

Therefore, as a last resort, Jehein could only hand over part of the government affairs to that person to show his "favor" and "trust" in their family.

His prestige was not enough, and he had to rely on the help of the three noble families to subdue the important ministers of the royal court.

So he not only married the eldest granddaughter of that person as queen, but also made the other two important members of the professional family the "royal shield".

The rights of the royal family are being apportioned!

This is completely intolerable to him, who is extremely powerful!

But his strength is not enough, so even if it is intolerable, it must be endured!

Although such tolerance will make him compromise and back down on some things, it will all be worth it for the sake of the ultimate goal!

As long as that is done, no one in this kingdom will be able to dictate to him, and no one will be able to make him make any concessions!

Thinking of this, the face of the handsome king suddenly darkened.

For he thought of an incident that had happened not long ago, something that had made him lose face in front of his vassals.

"Did you find it?"

Jerhain was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked for no reason, as if asking about the vast desert beyond the terrace.

But immediately a voice came from the dark quiet room behind the terrace, hoarse and low, like a traveler dying of thirst in the desert.

"I found out, Your Majesty, the carriage did not enter the inner city through the main gate, but entered the upper city through the side gate of the harbor area, and besides, the carriage did not go to the mage meeting after entering the upper city, but went to the 'Yelin' tavern......"

"It's Atma! That slut! Hearing the tavern's name, Jie Haiyin suddenly became unexpectedly annoyed, but after a moment of change in his face, he quickly calmed down.

"Where does that necromancer live now?"

For some reason, Jehein didn't even bother to ask about the conversation in the tavern, just silenced for a moment and asked another question.

"It's still in Uptown, but his detailed address has been obscured by the Mage Society, so we can't know it yet......."

"Humph! The mage will ......" Jie Haiyin suddenly let out a cold snort, and a pair of Danfeng eyes flashed with a shocking cold light.

"Keep checking for me! Expand the scope of the check! I want to know their whereabouts every step of the way! ”

"Understood......" The hoarse voice agreed, but seemed hesitant.

"Anything else?" Jayhayin asked impatiently.

"Ryu Zhen... He has been picked up, his spirit is very bad, Peter wants to ask you... Do you need to treat him with all his might? The hoarse voice hurriedly replied.

"What are you going to do when you bring him back?! What to do when you pick him up!? Do you continue to let him dismiss my face and disgrace my people?! Tell Peter, give me ......"

When Jie Haiyin heard Liu Zhen's name, he immediately burst into a burst of thunder.

However, he quickly calmed down.

"Forget it, you tell Peter, just treat him casually, and if he can recover on his own, let him continue to be the captain of the Praetorian Guard... If he can't recover... Hmph......"

"Oh yes, whether he recovers or not, you have to tell him that everything he has now is thanks to that necromancer... We've done everything we can to help him......"

"I... I see......"

The voice in the darkness seemed to hesitate for a moment, but finally didn't say anything.

Jayhain turned his head and continued to look at the lights outside the terrace, his face as cold as a block of ice.
