The Zerg army raced back to the valley headquarters. As soon as they returned, Su Xiao ordered the remaining 1,900 demon beasts to patrol and hunt in the surrounding area. Hunting had long since stopped; now, it was time for war.
Twelve giant spore tanks were dragged beside the Bug Nest. The fifth-stage Bug Nest was astonishingly powerful. After splitting open a huge fissure, it began devouring the biological tissue inside one of the giant spore tanks.
Its bioenergy reserves skyrocketed. Su Xiao had Root forcibly control the Bug Nest, making it cultivate demon beasts while converting bioenergy.
All the poison spines lay on the fungal carpet, being converted into bioenergy during their dormancy. Poison spines were useful for surprise attacks, but in a head-on war, demon beasts were still the better choice.
Su Xiao was certain that attacking the first hive would trigger the Tiger Bee faction's full-scale counterattack. The Tiger Bee faction had become one of this world's two major powers, and neither the two Bee Queens nor the Tiger Bee Lord, Taimisha, would be easy to deal with.
The Tiger Bee faction's army was about to arrive. Before that happened, Su Xiao needed a Zerg army capable of stopping them.

With the egg-laying tissue working together with the cultivation sacs, 1,950 adult demon beasts could be cultivated in two minutes. The mass production of troops had begun. As for raising the Bug Nest's level, that was absolutely impossible right now.
During the Bug Nest's evolution, it could neither convert bioenergy nor cultivate Zerg. If it evolved now, there would not be enough combat Zerg to resist the
