On a very desolate and remote dry mountain, roughly the midpoint between the territory where the parasitic bacteria are currently active and the Great Wall's defense line, there is a termite nest with half of the ant mound collapsed and seemingly abandoned.
Zhu Jue walked down from the ancient and technological equipment with exhaustion, which he named "Arrival Instrument".
This is not the first time Zhu Jue has used this equipment. The last time he was in the parasitic fungus base camp, he experienced the feeling of controlling the actions of other ants like an out-of-body soul. That time, he had no experience and did not enter the equipment completely voluntarily. In the end It took a lot of effort to figure out how to end the control state. Of course, the harvest of that visit was also great, allowing Zhu Jue to further explore the secrets deep in the ant civilization world...
Because the advent instrument can realize the will to descend from a distance and control the bodies of some parasitic organisms, after the parasitic army was transferred, the parasitic brains with ulterior motives placed the remote control equipment in this secret place, leaving a few behind. Guarded by elite parasitic combat forces, Zhu Jue, who also had ulterior motives, readily accepted the offer.
Now it comes in handy. It takes Zhu Jue about three days to fly from the Great Wall, and then he can establish real-time contact with the parasitic brains, which is much more convenient than flying directly to the parasitic territory. If we really flew over directly, I'm afraid the "parasitic roll" would have been cold...
Just now, it was Zhu Jue who controlled the parasitic worker ant to complete the "parasitic rolling" operation. Only remote control, as if he were present in person, could complete this kind of treatment that was no less than a miracle in the eyes of other ants. After achieving a series of achievements in this world, Zhu Jue completed his first surgical operation this time, and he no longer felt proud in his heart.
After all, Zhu Jue arrived in a hurry this time. There were not many remote control targets to choose from at that time. Only a few species such as parasitic brains, parasitic male ants, and large worker ants could withstand the huge consumption of brain power when he arrived, and this parasitic giant Worker ants have the highest degree of compatibility and the lowest degree of resistance, so they are also the easiest to escape from the advent state and return to the original body.
Although it was only the advent of will, the huge consumption would also cause a burden on Zhu Jue's body. After the high-intensity surgery, the moment Zhu Jue's will returned, he only felt weak and even more tired than before. The only parasitic soldier guard around him hurriedly poured nutrient solution into him before he recovered. The nutrient solution Zhu Jue consumed was different from the one used by the "Parasite Roller" to kill him. It was just a simple drink mixed with sugar, protein, vegetable oil, etc.
After recovering, Zhu Jue calmed down and once again directed his will to the big worker ant that had just completed the operation. Because there had been communication before, the other party had no resistance and his will was directly invaded. On the other hand, if the opponent is determined, then Zhu Jue will have to expend a lot of energy and use his powerful brainpower to suppress the opponent before he can invade, and he may even be backlashed if he is not careful.
Therefore, a forcible invasion has a big drawback. The stronger the opponent's brain power, the greater the risk. However, if the opponent's brain power is too weak and cannot accommodate Zhu Jue's will, he may suffer from brain disorder and die violently, and may also injure Zhu Jue. Lord's will. Therefore, only those at the level of willing parasitic worker ants are most suitable.
Zhu Jue controlled the target who was also very tired and began to check the armament of the lair. He also switched to the command frequency of "Parasite Wisdom II" to understand the intelligence. This type of eavesdropping that only listens without interfering, with the advantage of the strongest brain, Even the other parasitic brains were unaware of it.
Of course, Zhu Jue didn't have any thoughts about the parasitic creatures. He flew for three days this time to reach this remote mountain without any ant traces. Of course, his priority was to treat the "parasitic roller" to maintain his control over this parasitic army. of control. But in order not to waste time, he also planned to take the opportunity to directly understand the battle situation between the parasitic army and the destroyer.
After all, the first phase of the Western Expedition has been achieved. The Western Expedition must race against time to digest the recovered and newly occupied land, resume production as soon as possible, and establish transportation and logistics routes to support the army in continuing the second phase of the expedition. Whether the parasitic army can defeat the Destroyer, or how long it can sustain the Destroyer's offensive, also indirectly determines the final outcome of the Western Expedition.
The ideal situation is for the parasitic army to defeat or hold back the Destroyers as much as possible. If the Western Expeditionary Army can completely regain the lost territory and have a year and a half to operate it, even if the Destroyers invade again with millions of people, they will have a stable The Western Expeditionary Army in the territories and defense lines can also be blocked, and they will not repeat the previous wars of fighting separately.
Being defeated one by one, resulting in a tragedy of thousands of miles, Zhu Jue also took the opportunity to completely break up and control other civilized ant tribes.
But this will take time. Zhu Jue urgently needs to know whether the parasitic army can defeat the Destroyer and how long it can resist it.
Soon Zhu Jue learned from the existing intelligence that the parasite army and the destroyers were facing each other across the river. A war had not yet broken out between the two sides. In the outpost battle, the parasite beasts were slightly better. However, the parasitic brains were also clearly aware of the threat from the main force of the Destroyers on the other side of the river. They did not dare to take advantage of the water and air to cross the river to launch an active attack. They could only wait for the water level to drop before conducting defensive operations.
The parasitic organisms are also using this time to frantically replenish their forces. The parasitic queens of various races are willing to expedite the laying of eggs at the expense of their vitality. Among the parasitic flying insects, the weak ones fly in all directions, trying to infect any creature they encounter. , expand the force as much as possible.
The "Parasite Roll" even left a backup plan before it was injured, planning the retreat route of the Parasitic Brain and important individuals in case the war went unfavorably. In the most extreme case, they would completely shrink back to the swamp they came from...
Based on this, Zhu Jue judged that if the parasitic army continued like this, it would be difficult to compete with the destroyer army. After careful consideration, he took the initiative to find "Parasite Wisdom II" and had a long secret conversation with him.
When he came out of the advent state again, Zhu Jue added some nutrients and entered the advent instrument again. This time, his will did not fly to the parasitic territory in the northwest, but returned to his temporary Western Expedition headquarters, where there was a parasitic magic weapon.
The ants are waiting quietly.
This time, Zhu Jue set out in secret to avoid making too much noise that would shake the morale of the army. He announced that he would thank guests behind closed doors, and that daily military and government affairs were received in the form of information packets by this lurking parasitic god soldier ant, who was pretending to be sent to the temporary palace. Zhu Jue's office. But in fact, they waited until Zhu Jue's will came and simply dealt with it before feeding it back to the outside world, thereby creating the illusion that Zhu Jue was still there.
Zhu Jue had just finished his work and immediately came back as planned without stopping. But when he arrived successfully and read the highest-priority information package, he suddenly felt troubled...
