A is in StarCraft, just disembarked from the Zerg Prince spaceship.

In space, an insectoid starship.

"~~"

Sensing the death of the queen insect, Blue whistled.

When they are happy, excited, or joyful, the lepidopteran butterfly moths emit a soft whistling sound. Because of their slender throats, the airflow can make a single whistle sound melodious and pleasant.

The crown prince, finding it lacking in authority, generally doesn't make such sounds in front of other insects.

But when he's alone, he really loves to make that cheerful whistling sound, sometimes even turning it into a song.

Today, the insect did another good deed, killing the newborn insect mother without harming the little broken planet. I'm so happy!

Lan placed his hand on the return button and pressed it.

The starship turned around at faster-than-light speed and flew back the way it came.

The starship gleamed with a cold metallic light as it traversed the endless darkness.

The stars shone quietly.

Unlike their Lyrnia, which is crowded and has spacecraft everywhere you look in space, this little galaxy is truly empty except for planets.

Planets are also very fragile; he was afraid that if the starship landed, the starship would be fine but the planet would shatter.

Instead of staying in this fragile star system that can't withstand his antics, it's better to return to the Zerg territory sooner.

Lan lowered the driver's seat again, closed her eyes, and lay down.

Silver hair flowed down to the ground like water.

No need to thank me too much, goodbye to this little galaxy.

Oh right, where did I come from again? —doo-doo-doo-doo-doo...

...Damn, a wormhole!

He forgot to stabilize himself when passing through the wormhole!

Human Federation, Desolate Planet.

The assault team had originally planned to kill the surviving crustacean Zerg after the Zerg Queen died to clean up the battlefield. However, to everyone's surprise, after the explosion, the Zerg that were not affected by the blast and the crustacean Zerg that were not afraid of the explosion also let out a hiss and fell to the ground one after another, dying.

Fearing it might be a Zerg feigning death, Gao Tian chose a seemingly uninjured crustacean Zerg and fired his energy gun repeatedly, riddling it with holes.

The crustacean insectoids remained motionless, appearing to be truly dead.

"How could this be?" The scouts began frantically searching through Zerg data.

Gao Tian murmured, "The brain worm effect..."

"Huh?" The detective examined him.

Gao Tian did not answer him, but immediately pressed the communication button for Colonel Chen Feng.

Once communication was established, Colonel Chen Feng, who was monitoring the battlefield, immediately praised them, saying, "Excellent!!!"

"We'll talk about the praise later," Gao Tian told him. "Now there's a problem, Instructor: all the Zerg that weren't hit by the explosion are dead."

Colonel Chen Feng: "I saw it and am preparing to report it to the military headquarters for forwarding to the research institute."

Gao Tian: "Oh, then when you report to the military, add a sentence: the Zerg are suspected of having a cerebral worm effect."

The assault team members all opened their AI to search for what the brain worm effect was. After understanding it, they gasped in shock and then cheered excitedly!

A group of insects is a unified whole, sharing a common consciousness. One insect will act as the brain; if the brain insect dies, all the insects in the group will die together.

If that's the case, then the queen insect's role in the swarm is not just about reproduction.

Why does the swarm of 65-star insects create a mental barrier to block the battlefield?

Why are there scattered groups of worker insects in the training ground but no mental energy canopy?

Unless the mental energy canopy is not formed by all the swarms together, but only by the brain worm!

The queen worm is the brain worm of the swarm!

If this claim is confirmed, then they will have a way to deal with the Zerg.

There's no need to waste resources fighting against the massive swarm of insects anymore. As long as we can decapitate and assassinate the queen, the entire insect race will crumble from within.

The assault team landed on the surface of the desolate planet.

The original cave's surface portion had been blasted away, leaving behind a large, crater-like hole. The underground waterways, which had been sealed off by insects, were blown open, and surface water began to seep up again.

The planet's water resources haven't completely dried up. If the insects are eradicated, the ecosystem might gradually recover over the next few decades.

The assault team went to check the explosion site again.

The pungent smell of chemical fumes kept entering my nasal cavity, and a wave of scorching heat hit me in the face.

"Holy crap, it's all cooked..." Woman A forcefully pushed aside the carnivorous grasshopper blocking her way.

Countless insects were stacked on top of each other, with the mother insect protected at the very center.

It was already dead; its bloated, snow-white body had turned into a lifeless, pale lump of flesh.

The political commissar then frantically searched the AI ​​again: "Strange, the insect queen's body wasn't blown to pieces. It wasn't killed by the explosion."

"How did the insect queen die?" the sniper asked. "Was she crushed by the insects? Or killed by the shockwave from the explosion? Is the insect queen that fragile?"

"I don't know." Gao Tian grabbed the limp, drooping head and neck of the insect mother.

Compared to its enormous, swollen abdomen, the insect queen's upper body was pitifully small, with its head only the size of a seven or eight-year-old human child. The insect queen's lower body was tens of meters long, and its head hung on its huge abdomen like a grain of rice stuck on a watermelon.

The reproductive characteristics of the Zerg Queen are so prominent that humans have never suspected that she has a role in the Zerg beyond reproduction.

"Move the Zerg Queen onto the spacecraft, and collect samples from the other Zerg to preserve them," Gao Tianxia ordered. "Our mission is to safely transport the Queen's corpse back to the military region and escort it to the research institute. The researchers will find the answers to the other questions."

What others don't know is that the original protagonist, Lu Jianan, is the savior personally chosen by the world's consciousness, the child of destiny.

With the protagonist's halo around him, he will definitely find the insect queen's weakness.

The fact that the assault team went to the training grounds and returned carrying back the corpse of a Zerg queen caused a huge sensation in Military District 45. Humanity had always been on the defensive in the war against the Zerg, and this sudden victory was like a lightning bolt striking calm waters!

The military region's discipline was almost broken, and countless people crowded the training ground during training breaks to watch the research institute dissect the insect mother on-site in the military region's open space.

Killing a newly hatched queen bug and destroying an undeveloped nest—isn't training supposed to be without equipment?! Wait, we're all human, how come they're so awesome?!

As the assault team entered, they were greeted with salutes from soldiers and officers along the way.

If the return gift is poorly handled, it will be difficult to move an inch.

The Human Federation has suffered from the Zerg invasion for a long time; in the past few decades alone, more than a dozen of the Human Federation's satellites have been abandoned due to the Zerg invasion.

Colonel Chen Feng, seeing the situation spiraling out of control, promptly rescued them.

He patted each member of the assault team on the shoulder and praised them, "Well done. Really well done. Even if I were in your shoes, I couldn't have done any better."

"You've worked hard, you've worked hard. The Human Federation will forever remember this achievement. Each of you will have a month's leave for this battle, and you will return in a month to receive your medals. There will be no mandatory missions during your leave, starting tomorrow! You've all worked hard, you've all worked hard, now you can all go back and rest!"

"Yes!" the assault team cheered, even Gao Tian couldn't hold back. What a rare month-long vacation! You know, the military only gives out three days of leave for family visits!

The assault team scattered like birds and beasts.

Gao Tian was about to go to Lu Jianan's place to check on the situation when Colonel Chen Feng called him to a stop.

Colonel Chen Feng: "Gao Tian, ​​where are you going? Captain, come with me to the conference room to report on your duties!"

Gao Tian: ? Wasn't it what you just said, "You all have a month-long vacation"?

Gao Tian: So, I wasn't included in "you guys" who all had a holiday?
