Chapter 732

Although the Epoch Clan had laid a great many high-explosive bombs, the Zerg had also gathered no small number of Tunneling Worms this time. Moreover, the Tunneling Worms were simply too massive, and their genetic structure left them with few vital points. Even if half their bodies were blown away, they could still move, though their burrowing ability would be somewhat weakened.

As a result, before a single Tunneling Worm was completely crippled or killed, it could physically trigger quite a few Epoch Clan bombs. And since the Tunneling Worms' point of impact was small, the number of bombs within any given area was simply unable to withstand such depletion.

In just a few minutes, the high-explosive bombs the Epoch Clan had spent so long arranging had mostly been detonated. On the Zerg side, over a hundred Tunneling Worms had also been killed.

But according to the Epoch Clan's detection equipment, there were still at least a hundred Tunneling Worms below. Once those behemoths charged up, the Epoch Clan soldiers, lacking heavy weapons in their defenses, would have no way to stop them.

At the same time, these behemoths dug as they moved. Once they charged up, they would not need to do anything in particular. The Zerg Queen, hidden somewhere unknown, could take advantage of the chaos and escape on her own.
