Apocalypse: The Stronghold System

Chapter 172: Additional Space Bases

Fan Chen asked Scientist Xu Chen to take samples of the Space Worm and Hydralisk, asking him to match whether the DNA of these two creatures was the same or not.

If suitable, then the Space Worm and the Hydralisk can work together to annihilate the human race, but if it does not match, then. After all, humanity was still fighting these two creatures. It's just that, hopefully the Space Worm and Hydralisk are hostile to each other so that the burden of humanity can be reduced.

As Fan Chen waited for the results, the others went to a high cliff with a hole there, which was thought to be the entrance to the Hydralisk nest.

They did not enter directly, but sent drones to monitor conditions in the ground. If it is not possible to enter, it can only send the Basel Robot to carry out a suicide mission, but it is too wasteful. If they could, they wanted to wait at the entrance and kill him bit by bit.

With a large outdoor area and a small entrance, it is certainly more profitable for them to be outside. If it entered the Hydralisk headquarters, even without much calculation, it was certain that their team would perish there.

...

"How's it?" Fan Chen looked at Xu Chen who had just returned from Earth.

Yep! After the sample was obtained, Fan Chen stored it inside the Inventory, then the Warehouse in the Underground City sent the sample to Xu Chen Laboratory. There, Xu Chen compared the samples in the fastest time, no matter if the data was incomplete.

Xu Chen looked at Fan Chen and replied as well as sending the data in virtual form, "The data obtained is not very complete, but there is indeed a resemblance between the Space Worm and the Hydralisk, indeed, it is as if they are from the same source. However, their DNA was fighting each other, making it quite difficult to deduce it."

Fan Chen looked at the paper in virtual form. Other than what Xu Chen had said, Space Worms had their own thoughts, although the strongest Space Worms could rule the Space Worms underneath. As for Hydralisk, it was still unknown, yet Fan Chen knew that Zerg had no individual thoughts.

Zerg is Zerg. They are the same, only the mother has a thought. As for why their DNA was similar as coming from the same source but also fighting each other, he had a wild thought. If humans are creatures created from the experiments of civilizations outside the Solar System, then Zerg Worms are the same.

Zerg Worm is a combination of Space Worm and Zerg. He just named it easier.

Let's just say both are from the same civilization, but because of something like an accident in an experiment, another species called “Zerg” was created. Both provide destruction, and both rely on the DNA of other creatures to get stronger.

However, if the Space Worm must parasitize other creatures in order to collect DNA and grow stronger, then Zerg only needs to eat the creature until it is destroyed.

In terms of speed of power increase, of course Zerg is superior. But in terms of evolutionary speed, the Space Worm should be superior because it still maintains its host body alive.

But no matter if it was Space Worm or Zerg, these two creatures were both threats to mankind that had to be exterminated from the Solar System.

"In order for Mars to be used as a military base to protect Earth, all of these Space Worms and Zergs must be destroyed. Natural satellites must also be changed, must make a complete arsenal there. We must also develop the planets Mercury and Venus. Although it can't be used for future human colonies, we can harness the energy there, and leave the Space Base to guard if any Space Worms come from there."

"Sir ..." Fan Xiaoyu raised his hand and asked, "Solar System, if anyone attacks, shouldn't it be from Masa, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune?"

Fan Chen rubbed Fan Xiaoyu's head and replied, "Yu'er, the 3D Solar System is different from Earth. If it fought on land on Earth, the enemy could attack from a parallel land and from the sky. But the Solar System, there is no clear direction. The Solar System is so vast, let's just say from Mercury to Neptune parallel, there's still another side that's empty ..."

"Then, these planets are very small compared to the Solar System." Fan Chen turned on the Solar System projection and again said, "Solar System has a diameter of more than 200 AU, in case the Space Worm does not transit on various planets, but going directly to the Sun by floating in space far away from each planet, then it's possible, and we can't stop it at all."

"So ..." Fan Xiaoyu nodded.

Xu Chen nodded and added, "Unless they've existed first on Mercury and Venus before humans were on Earth."

Fan Chen did not say anything at Xu Chen's words, but he nodded his head.

—3 Days Later—

The dispersing team has finished circling Mars, although many places look suspicious and dangerous, and occasionally meet with Space Worms, but the danger level was small compared to the Hydralisk that started coming out from its hiding place.

Therefore, all the teams were taken to the place where Hydralisk was born. Thousands of Basel Robots were also deployed, and for the Space Fighter, were left to continue circling Mars.

But even though it has deployed Robot Basel, but still can not enter because of the narrow area is not possible, as well as Hydralisk which continues to come out without stopping.

Although they use a Replacement Robot that is not hungry and physically tired, but mentally they say otherwise.

At this moment, Fan Chen stood on top of the 50-meter-high wall, the wall surrounding the entrance to the Hydralisk nest.

Fan Chen held onto the M134, directing it towards the Hydralisk that kept coming nonstop.

Da da da!

Ammo continues to be fired relentlessly, and every minute it will consume 8,000 rounds per minute. These are all money!

Fan Chen looked at the Hydralisk that kept falling and appeared again endlessly. Then he sat on the floor, sighing with unbearable emotion.

"Damn! It never ends!" Fan Chen was furious, he hit the wall below him with all his might.

If this was an ordinary wall, it might be severely damaged, but this wall was created using a Level 05 Blueprint.

"But, the income from killing him was tempting. I've added 67 Space Bases!"

If it continues like this, although very tired in terms of mental, but it will not be long until installing 200 — 450 Space Base from Earth to Mars in a straight line. If Earth and Mars enter a close orbital phase, other Space Bases could be directed to the Asteroid Belt, or to the Planet Venus.
