"Hey, Wang Er, it seems like the Queen's order isn't easy to fulfill. Anyone with half a brain won't come with us, right? This job's a tough one!"

"Alright, stop complaining. Be grateful you're alive. Let's hurry, they say the top three performers get special rewards!"

Clicking his tongue, he lit a cigarette and spoke with the air of a seasoned veteran, "Let me tell you, the Queen's testing our efficiency. Can't be too fast, or life will be hell later."

"I'm just gonna slack off. There aren't many humans left anyway. They can't do without me, so I'm telling you, just lie flat and don't bother competing."

"I know! The Queen said the top three get a little mermaid as a reward..."

"—!?"

└(＞w＜。)┐-=≡

"Hey, where are you going? I haven't finished yet!"

"I love working!" ~(≥▽≤)/~

"...Whatever."

A long while passed.

"Hey, up ahead, is that a group of farm tools?"

"Yeah, looks like it. Alright, I'm going in! I'm gonna get rich this time! Mermaid, cough, work! Here I come!"

"Hey, wait a minute!"

He grabbed his companion, stopping him from rushing forward. "Don't be hasty! Wait a bit. There are too many people here. Even if we catch them, how are we gonna take them back? We can't kill them, I'd feel bad if they died!"

"Well, look at this. The Queen's tool. She said it can awaken their bloodlines. It's very effective in the experiments!"

A shiny little whip swished in the air.

"No! Not this one, listen to me..."

................

A fissure in the seabed.

The once-stable seabed suddenly trembled.

"Hahaha! The Great Demon King is out! Humans! Submit to the Great Demon King!" A one-eyed creature, with the front half of a shark and the back end modified into an octopus shape, immediately launched into a speech befitting a chuunibyou.

"..."

The two 'fish?' next to him covered their faces, as if to say, "I don't know this guy."

One looked like a giant clam, but instead of soft flesh inside the shell, there were similar black tentacles.

The other was a black turtle, and seemed quite normal, except for its unreasonable size. In fact, that was what made it seem abnormal.

"Alright, quiet down for a bit. By the way, where's Hei Ge? Wasn't he the first one out? Where did he go? He hasn't already gone to enslave those humans, has he?"

"Ah, I don't know. Let's go look for him. But, we're all out now, and this place is close to the mainland. Hei Ge should know that. Could it be!"

"Hei Ge's in trouble!" 〣(ºΔº)〣

"Hey! Where are you two going! Wait for me!"

"Hurry up, you idiot!" (╬￣皿￣)凸 The giant clam extended its tentacles and made an internationally recognized gesture. After all, you can't reason with this half-brained, truly brain-damaged brother!

He has to be rebellious! You have to hit and kick him to get through!

The three fish arrived at the seaside, specifically, the cherry blossom islands where life is still pretty good.

"Hmm? Why can't I see a single human? And what was that thing I recorded earlier? Is it a new descendant? It certainly looks strange."

"Strange? It's hideous! I can't stand it. Good thing we were driven out."

"Haha! My subjects! They're all my subjects! Not bad! They can even flail their limbs! They look energetic."

"..."

"Quiet!"

"Oh."

"Something's not right. The aura on them is strange. I can't sense any biological energy, so these are probably human experiments. Be careful."

After landing, the Creep tumors on the coast were ready to attack. Although they didn't know if they could win, this was the Queen's territory, and these damn fish! They all deserve to die!

Scraping~

However, how many Zerg did the Queen send them? I don't know, but even if there are only Hydralisk Zerg, dealing with these guys is easy. It just takes a little time.

The three creatures weren't very big. The largest, the turtle-like one, was only about fifty meters in size.

However, the way the clam and the shark moved was a bit ridiculous. The clam was okay, looking like a giant jellyfish.

But the shark looked like it was gazing at the stars. It seemed like the connected part had some issues, and its head swayed left and right as it walked, making it look not very bright.

There were no combat Zerg on this island anymore, except for the Spire that stood on the coast, the home of the Mutalisk Zerg.

"This thing is so slippery, so fun! Hahaha!"

"..."

Well, no surprise that he is brain damaged in the physical sense!

Lin Mo wasn't here. Far away in Africa, she had no interest in coming here, but the Zerg can be controlled remotely.

Also, that mutated squid, although its original instance was only Tier 8, it had been modified by the Zerg. Its actual strength couldn't be determined yet.

Now was the perfect time to test it out!

Receiving the Queen's order, the Hydralisk Zerg, who were originally preparing to work on the Leviathan Zerg of the second machine, immediately came over. There weren't many, only about twenty thousand. (￣w￣)

That should be enough firepower. I wonder how long they can last. With their small bodies, they should die soon. I just wonder how much biological energy is in their bodies.

The three seafood creatures were still trying to explore, but all they could see was scorched earth. Besides the Creep tumors, there was nothing unusual.

It was eerily calm.

"What's going on? I feel a little panicked. I feel like something big is coming!"

"Hey, what could happen? There's no way these humans have more people than us sea folks, right? No way."

"Haha, you're right."

"Did you guys hear something?"

"There's no sound at all. Holy crap! There really is a sound!"

"The sky is getting dark..."

The sound of swallowing saliva.

They tremblingly raised their heads, and couldn't see the end. It was densely packed with unknown flying creatures.

"Did those humans make these? Or... are they new war weapons?"

"Sea...folk...you...good...Overmind says, you came...to...visit her, she is very happy."

Another Overseer Zerg took over, "But...you...didn't bring gifts, Overmind...doesn't! like!"
