Rise of the Zerg in the World of Gods

"Oh?"

Knowing that Wen Zheng had already begun arranging rescue, Zhong Tianyue relaxed. He now leisurely sipped his wine, quietly listening to Xu Luo's words.

"What kind of deal do you want to make?"

"I need breeding cards, or related items, as many as possible."

Xu Luo's voice was very steady, not at all like someone being surrounded and having their Divine Realm destroyed.

For him, the destruction of the Divine Realm's terrain was inconsequential.

As long as the Zerg hive and Divine Realm core were safe, it was enough.

"That's fine. They're common items. As long as you have the money, you can have as many as you want."

Zhong Tianyue began to play dumb.

Wise with age, he knew exactly what game the other side was playing.

"I don't have money!"

Xu Luo was also straightforward.

In the projection, he spread his hands, without a trace of embarrassment.

"I need to get credit from the school. After it's done, I'll pay an additional 10% interest."

"What do you think the school is?"

Hearing this, Zhong Tianyue was so angry he wanted to throw his cup, but remembering what it contained, he drained it in one gulp instead.

"Don't even think about it."

He wasn't angry about Xu Luo wanting credit, but about offering only 10% interest.

This was just a transaction, without any consideration for their relationship.

"Hehe, don't be angry, teacher!"

Xu Luo chuckled.

"I'll sell all the captured units to the school. There are quite a few Silver-tier units, and there will be more in the future."

Hearing Xu Luo's trump card, Zhong Tianyue was tempted.

Why couldn't No. 6 High School attract those true heirs of wealthy families? Or students with good talent?

Wasn't it because of poor performance in the inter-school league, and besides the school's basic facilities, there weren't many attractive resources?

A sufficient number of Silver-tier units were also scarce. Having these as a reserve could attract students.

Although every planet was now striving to cultivate a true human Main God, with the same goal, who wouldn't want this person to be one they had nurtured?

Only by having a Main God could they possess the deterrent power like the nuclear weapons before the interstellar era.

Humanity currently had no Main God to preside over them, and thus no deterrent power.

The once-almost Main God, Zuo Tianyao, had died, and now the entire human civilization was pouring its efforts into cultivating a true genius.

Thus, the Seed Project emerged.

A Main God, fantasy projected into reality, was completely different from other Gods and True Gods.

Only civilizations with a Main God could truly establish themselves on the grand stage of the interstellar era.

Although the human Milky Way civilization had joined the interstellar community for hundreds of years, they hadn't truly established themselves in this long period because they lacked a Main God.

At this moment, what truly moved Zhong Tianyue wasn't the Silver-tier units, but the glimmer of hope he saw in Xu Luo.

"But what use are breeding cards to you now?"

Units all had growth periods. Even after using breeding cards, they couldn't immediately join the battlefield. What use were they?

"You don't need to worry about that, teacher."

Xu Luo smiled.

He wouldn't reveal that the Zerg had no growth period.

Zhong Tianyue's heart skipped a beat, but thinking that items to accelerate unit growth weren't unheard of, he didn't dwell on it.

"I'll send the items to you. I'll keep the bill, but don't mention that 10% again."

Zhong Tianyue naturally didn't accept. This wasn't a transaction, but the school's support for a genius student.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't provide help for free, he would have considered not charging at all.

This small investment now would be invaluable once Xu Luo grew up.

Moreover, Zhong Tianyue agreed to support because he didn't want Xu Luo to be rescued. It wasn't about diluting favors, but because after being rescued, his evaluation would decrease, lowering his seed level and benefits.

If there was any way to avoid it, it was naturally best for him to overcome the crisis on his own.

"Thank you, teacher!"

On the other end, Xu Luo nodded with a smile, without any objection.

Zhong Tianyue continued watching the chaotic battle, suddenly feeling the table full of wine and dishes had lost its appeal.

Starships outside the Divine Realm continuously fired laser beams, while the united forces of various alien races kept destroying and advancing towards the Divine Realm core.

Earth Dragon Zerg emerged from all directions, engaging in fierce battles with the invaders.

The entire Divine Realm was engulfed in combat from all sides.

It was only because Xu Luo's Divine Realm had repeatedly absorbed others, now vastly expanded, that it wasn't quickly breached to the core without the advantage of strategic depth.

Now, the Earth Dragon Zerg's fearless resistance was just to buy a little more time.

Xu Luo received items and breeding cards sent by Zhong Tianyue from the novice Divine Realm's main city, including even a Spring God's Blessing.

This was the Spring God, the God of Reproduction's blessing, with self-evident effects.

It could increase the Queen's reproduction limit.

Although it only lasted for a day, it was enough for the current situation.

After using the Spring God's Blessing, the Queen's egg-laying quantity increased, maximizing the effect of the breeding cards.

At this time, Earth Dragon Zerg were continuously being lost, and the Divine Realm's outer defenses were under attack. Time was of the essence.

Xu Luo couldn't wait for the Zerg eggs to hatch slowly, so he had to use various items to accelerate the process.

Whenever new Earth Dragon Zerg appeared, he immediately dispatched them to join the battlefield.

Therefore, from the aliens' perspective, Xu Luo's forces seemed endless, with no sign of depletion.

"Could this be a hunting team's base?"

An alien raised the question in surprise.

They didn't believe this was one person's Divine Realm, but more like a group's united Divine Realm, because the area was too vast. Generally, an individual's Divine Realm wasn't this large; the larger the area, the higher the maintenance cost.

And there were too many units.

Who could field so many troops alone?

Communicating with nearby Demi-Gods, they already knew that twenty-eight Divine Realms had been destroyed earlier.

The combined kill count of those was already an astronomical figure.

Yet the opponent still had so many troops. Even ordinary hunting teams didn't have this many forces.

"Very likely," an alien nodded.

"The hunting teams near us were all eliminated before. This might be one that has fled here from elsewhere."

Only this could explain why they hadn't known of the opponent's existence before, and why these powerful, ruthless, and fearless units were something they had never seen before.

Living beings generally have emotions of fear. When casualties reach a certain level, there would usually be fear of battle and fleeing behavior.

But the Zerg's fearlessness in the face of death both surprised and terrified them.

Although their forces greatly outnumbered the Zerg, now it was their units that seemed somewhat frightened.
