Does That Mean the Mother Zerg Was Committing Suicide?

The top of the giant black tower.

Su Ye, Xi Yue, Alice, Keisha are all here.

Only then did Su Ye get a clear look at the city: a black steel behemoth surrounded by walls.

Beyond the black city walls lies a blood-red, writhing Ocean; upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that those things are all Flesh Monster.

"Your Emperor, ever since that Divine Flesh was transferred here, Flesh Monster from all over the world have been converging on this side. That Divine Flesh has absolute control over these flesh creatures."

"That's why the outer steel walls were built; otherwise, the invading flesh-and-blood creatures, though not particularly strong, would be too numerous to function properly."

"Simply Slaughter can wipe out these flesh and blood creatures, but that would undoubtedly be a waste of Your Emperor's currency. So, after discussing it with Liu Fei, we came up with the Bio-Servitor No. 1, your Gray Currency," Xi Yue's voice rang out.

He explained to Su Ye the reason for the birth of the Bio-Servitor No. 1.

"Didn't those things riot?" Su Ye looked at the countless Flesh Monster crowding outside the steel city walls.

"As long as that piece of Divine Flesh remains still, these monsters will quiet down." Xi Yue pushed up her glasses.

"I see. How did you calm Him down?" Su Ye, somewhat curious.

"Feed it, and that piece of Divine Flesh will quietly consume the food and then produce Flesh Monster," Xi Yue said calmly.

"Hmm?" Su Ye looked at Xi Yue.

"What did you use to feed them?"

"The corpses of Bugs and Void Creature are all acceptable, as long as the corpses of living beings have not been Pollution. The Pollution mentioned here refers to the Pollution that occurs after being devoured and assimilated by Divine Flesh, not Pollution in the conventional sense." Xi Yue explained in detail, afraid that Su Ye might not understand.

"Oh, I see. In that case, wouldn't World No. 1 and World No. 2 become a perpetual motion machine, able to keep cycling endlessly?" Su Ye said excitedly, his eyes lighting up.

If that's the case, then there's no need to worry about upgrading resources. Flesh creatures are thrown to Bugs, and after the Bugs devour them, they spawn more Bugs. Then Su Ye's Troops level up, and the Bugs Divine Flesh are thrown to Divine Flesh, which devours and assimilates them, giving birth to new Flesh Monster, which are then fed to the Bugs.

A perfect cycle was born.

But if the cycle is so perfect, why does Xi Yue still need to create biological Machine Servant?

Thinking of this Su Ye looked at Xi Yue.

"Is it unable to cycle? Or is there a problem somewhere?" Su Ye asked Xi Yue, Xi Yue certainly knew that he was focusing on upgrading Troops.

If recycling is possible, what is the point of transforming these flesh-and-blood creatures into biological Machine Servant?

"Your Emperor, the Bugs ' productivity has declined?" Xi Yue told Su Ye some bad news.

"Huh?" Su Ye stared at Xi Yue with wide eyes, having considered many possible reasons, but never the possibility that the problem lay with the Bugs.

Or is it a problem with the Bugs ' reproduction?

"Really?" Su Ye looked at Xi Yue with some surprise. The Bugs known for its high fertility had actually experienced a decline in productivity. Had it exhausted itself from giving birth?

"Based on our observations, the Bugs in World No. 2 are controlled by a Mother Zerg. The Mother Zerg itself has no power, only reproductive ability. Under normal circumstances, the Mother Zerg's reproductive ability should not decline so quickly."

"There's only one reason: it was terrified. It kept producing Bugs, even consuming its own Origin to produce Bugs to protect itself. As a result, the fertility of that Mother Zerg Mother Zerg completely decreased, and it's estimated that she will soon be unable to reproduce," Xi Yue said slowly.

Su Ye:...

"So that Mother Zerg really did give birth until she was exhausted?" Su Ye said, somewhat speechless.

"That's one way to understand it, but the correct answer is that it wanted to protect itself because Your Emperor was too much of a threat, or rather, it killed too many of its companions who leveled up in World No. 2. As a result, the Mother Zerg misjudged that it was in danger, which is why it reproduced recklessly at the beginning, leading to a decline in its fertility and damage to its Life Origin." Xi Yue pushed up her glasses and said carefully.

"So, it won't be long before the Mother Zerg dies? Or becomes infertile?" Su Ye asked Xi Yue.

"Yes." Xi Yue nodded affirmatively.

"How long will this take?" Su Ye asked in a deep voice.

"Based on the current timeline, it's not entirely clear, but it could take at most a month, or at least a week," Xi Yue said in a deep voice.

"Is there any way to revive that Mother Zerg?" Su Ye thought for a moment and then asked a rather absurd question.

Xi Yue shook her head.

"Theoretically speaking, that Mother Zerg is intelligent; it could survive if it didn't reproduce. But it's choosing to continue reproducing now, precisely to hasten its own death."

"Huh?" Su Ye looked at Xi Yue, thinking he had misheard.

"You mean the Mother Zerg committed suicide?" Su Ye asked, somewhat incredulously.

"Yes, that Mother Zerg must have been aware of her situation, which is why she made that choice. Now, the Mother Zerg is eating very little, according to the latest observation data. She is giving her last bit of strength to the Zerg," Xi Yue said slowly.

"Is it really necessary to do this?" Su Ye asked, somewhat puzzled.

"In fact, this is the instinct of living beings. If some creatures are kept in captivity and cannot escape such a situation, they will choose to sterilize themselves, even killing their offspring if they are born," Xi Yue said in a scientific tone.

"That Mother Zerg realized this, which is why it chose to commit suicide," Xi Yue said, looking at Su Ye.

Su Ye:...

"Alright, so here's the question: where will the Troops upgrades go in the future?" Su Ye took a deep breath and asked with a hint of annoyance.

Xi Yue shrugged. She couldn't solve this problem either, and as for upgrading in World No. 1? That was even more impossible.

The Emperor's Gray Currency Gray Currency is being born in this world. Do you want to destroy Emperor?

"Forget it, I'll handle this." Su Ye couldn't help but think of the Bloody Battle Invitation.

This thing is a great upgrade tool, but once activated, it means twelve consecutive hours of monster invasions.

Su Ye didn't feel that he couldn't get through it; he simply felt that the process was taking too long and was a bit troublesome.

"By the way, where is Liu Fei? What is Liu Fei doing?" Su Ye asked Xi Yue.

"Consort Liu Fei is still in the Underground Laboratory. Does Your Emperor wish to go?" Xi Yue said softly.

"Let's go take a look, we're already here," Su Ye said. Since they were already here, they should at least go and see, even though Su Ye didn't really want to go.
