In the dream world, all rules were set by the dreamer. Although Luo Xia already possessed power comparable to all the Infinity Stones combined, in this world, he could only have a mechanized base.
On a vast plain that had not yet been discovered by the bugs, all kinds of blue crystals grew wildly across the ground. Luo Xia established his base there, and almost immediately alerted the bug nests thousands of kilometers away.
There were more than three hundred bug nests across the planet, but the disparities between them were obvious. Take the plain Luo Xia had chosen: while it was rich in resources, it also contained quite a few bug nests. Since they belonged to different factions and even fought among themselves, none of them were particularly large.
Right after establishing the base, Luo Xia did not construct defenses or produce combat units. Instead, he made a small number of mining robots to gather crystal resources, then began mass-producing the highly mobile Vulture Hovercars.
These ground units looked like motorcycles and were probably among the fastest low-tier units. However, the hovercars had few offensive options. At most, they could launch grenades or lay a few mines.
Moreover, the Vulture Hovercars had very weak defenses. Even low-level Zerg Raptor Beasts could easily destroy them if they got close. It was practically impossible to use these hovercars to hold back a Zerg assault.
Even so, Luo Xia spent a great deal of resources constructing the prerequisite buildings for Vulture Hovercars, then began mass-producing them.
It took nearly a third of his resources to assemble the Vulture Hovercars. By then, a scouting force of Raptor Beasts sent by the nearest bug nest had already reached a point a hundred kilometers away.
Raptor Beasts were the Zerg's most basic combat unit, roughly
