Chapter 813: Zerg Knight Carter

Hong Dali broke out in cold sweat and felt chilly. “There is something weird. Something must be wrong. If these Zergs are so sensitive to their genes, at most, Sister Xiao Yi could be counted as one more. That only makes two! But they have enough numbers for five King Zergs… which means…”

He racked his brains. The most important thing was that the numbers didn’t match up. The difference was too big.

Five King Zergs, Zhang Yi and little Baichou only made up two. But five King Zergs…

“Uncle Tang Long,” Hong Dali called out. “The ratio of the number of Zergs and production of King Zergs does not match up! Based on what we anticipated, if the Zergs are here for my little Bai Hechou, there isn’t a need for so many Zergs! But why are there so many Zergs? What is going on?”

Facing such a situation, Tang Long did not know what to do either. “I don’t know. Although I’ve seen more of the world when I was with my old master, we have never heard of such a situation. I don’t remember this being documented in any ancient documents, either. My suggestion is not to think too much about it. It never helps to overthink matters. You should take care of the current problems first. There are more than 800 Zerg Knights. This is no joke.”

“Alright.” Hong Dali gritted his teeth. “I shall not think about it now, then. The pressing matter now is to get rid of the Zerg Knights before we think of what these bugs are really up to!”

At this moment, the swarm of Zergs flew toward the space carrier Hong Dali was in. The scene of the swarm of Zergs flying towards them was shocking. Even viewing it through the holographic projection was enough to make their scalp tingle.

It was clear Earth could not withstand four 1,000-kilometer-long spacecrafts landing on it. Hence, it was impossible for them to land on Earth. The only option left—other than the original crew on the spacecraft—was for everyone else to land on Earth via Thunder Angel. After that would be the battle with Zerg Knights.

“Everyone, get ready.” Hong Dali shouted. “Get in Thunder Angel, land on Earth, get ready to battle!”

Whoosh—

Thunder Angel carried all the important people and landed on Earth.

As expected, the Zerg Knights and the mutated Zergs, together with forty billion ordinary Zergs, followed them to Earth without hesitation!

Their goal was indeed little Bai Hechou and Zhang Yi. At least, both of them were definitely one of their targets. They had no idea about the others, and they had no time to speculate either because Thunder Angel had already landed!

To prevent causing too much damage to Earth, Hong Dali decided to land on an area with the least living things, Sahara Desert!

The Sahara Desert was formed approximately 2.5 million years ago and was the world’s largest sandy desert. It was located in northern Africa. The region had very climatic conditions, making it one of the least suitable places for living things on the planet. Its total area could accommodate the entire Merika.

There were barely any animals here, not to mention people. They could fight without worry.

“Everyone, get ready!” Hong Dali commanded everyone to gather on the mechas and they landed.

Granzon, Valsion, Dragon Tiger King, Dark Angel, as well as Wang Daoming’s Venerable Mecha formed a circle in front of the Thunder Angel. It was best that little Bai Hechou and Zhang Yi did not appear. Hence, they stayed in the Thunder Angel’s core with all other non-combat people. It was not an overstatement to say the safest place on Earth was inside the Thunder Angel’s core.

Time passed little by little.

Soon, silhouettes appeared in the sky, big and small.

The smaller ones were about two meters in height. Those were Zerg Knights who could fight under any circumstances. The mid-sized ones were about ten meters tall. They had the largest volume of ordinary Zergs who blocked the light from the sun.

Even bigger ones were thirty to forty meters high, matching the height of Dragon Tiger King. These were the backbone of the Zergs, mutated Zergs.

A large enemy force approached.

Facing such a situation, even though Granzon was protected by Immium ore as well as the AT field, Hong Dali did not dare to let his guard down.

It was now clear that the Zergs’ target was little Bai Hechou and Zhang Yi!

These horrifying bugs had no interest in anyone else. With the main target around, the Zergs did not wish to complicate matters. From this, it could be deduced that there was a commander controlling them.

The Zerg Knights started to descend.

Their bodies were very small compared to Hong Dali and the others’ mechas, as well as Thunder Angel, but they were not to be underestimated. Their weapons were very powerful!

“Huhuhu—”

More than eight hundred Zerg Knights soon landed on the ground. At this time, from within Thunder Angel, another mecha exited.

This mecha was silvery white all over and had mechanical wings on its back. It looked like an enlarged version of Hong Dali’s Mechanical Holy Garment. This was Feng Wuhen with his personal mecha.

“Dali!” Once Feng Wuhen’s mecha stepped onto the desert sands, he said, “These Zerg Knights are very fast and their weapons are very strong. Their only weakness is their lack of durability. After all, they have human skeletons. The armor they wear may be extremely hard, but the bones inside are comparatively weak. We should not have too many misgivings and just hit them with all we’ve got!”

“Okay!” With this knowledge, Hong Dali had no intention of holding back. “Everyone get ready!”

Everyone raised their weapons. Valsion, which Chuyin was in, was especially intimidating. It had only two weapons, one of which was the huge battle knife it held in its hands.

“Is the human commander here?” Just as Hong Dali and the others were getting ready to fight, a Zerg Knight clad in dark red armor approached them slowly. He lifted his head slightly and said evenly, “Our leader proposes a trade with you. What do you say?”

This Zerg Knight could speak the universal language!

Hong Dali and the rest did not think much of it. After all, they had witnessed all kinds of strange things during this period of time and this was just another one of them.

However, Yin Tianzong, who was inside Thunder Angel, was first taken aback, then shocked. He almost jumped up. “Carter, you are Carter?! How did you become a Zerg Knight?! God! I am Tianzong! Your Young Master Tianzong!”

Hong Dali and the others looked at each other.

Carter? Did this person who looked like he was the leader of the Zerg Knights knew Yin Tianzong?

“Young Master Tianzong, how do you do. I am Carter.” The Zerg Knight leader named Carter bowed slightly in the direction of Thunder Angel. He smiled and said, “Thank you, Young Master Tianzong, for taking care of me when I was a human. It is also precisely because of this that I am negotiating with you as the Zerg representative.”

This man named Carter was self-aware!

Based on what he had said to himself and Yin Tianzong, Hong Dali gleamed at least three pieces of information!

First, the Zerg had come with a leader this time. A real leader, one who could control even these Zerg Knights!

Second, it was confirmed that the inducement was little Bai Hechou. It was currently unknown if Zhang Yi was included.

Third, since Carter was self-aware, that proved that these Zerg Knights were not like that rest of the Zerg who only had the most basic instincts! They had their own thoughts and had the same awareness of danger humans had. As for their style of fighting, it might not be much different from that of ordinary humans.

And this Zerg Knight Carter said that he wanted to negotiate with them…

What was there to negotiate between humans and Zerg? Even if they really could negotiate, so what? Little Bai Hechou was his godson. How could he allow little Bai Hechou to leave with them? Furthermore, they might just burn their bridges after they got what they wanted. If he really handed little Bai Hechou over to them, would they let everyone else leave after that? What a joke!

“Your name is Carter?” Hong Dali said quietly, “Tell us your conditions first. We have to consider if there is any need for negotiations.”

“A wise choice.” Carter smiled and shrugged. “Amongst you is a child who has our genes. We have come to bring him back with us.”

Once he said that everyone’s hearts fell.

They were really here for Bai Hechou!

“Hehe, as expected.” Hong Dai chuckled coldly. “Little Bai Hechou is my son. Do you think I will let you take him away?”

“Whether we can or not depends on how our negotiations go.” Carter smiled and said, “Honestly speaking, Leader’s intentions are that as long as you hand this child named little Bai Hechou over to us, everything else is negotiable. You can raise your own conditions.”

He said that?

At this point in time, Hong Dali was sure of the importance of little Bai Hechou. He would not hand him over even if they killed him.

“Do you think I will believe the words of Zergs?” Hong Dali said disdainfully, “You might as well lay down the terms. At worse, we start fighting now. If I really lose, I’ll take you all down with me and we can all die together. There is no way you are getting my son. You should be well aware of that.”

“No, no, no.” Carter shook his head. “Honestly speaking, I think you are being too hasty.” As he spoke, he looked up at the sky. “Perhaps we can do it this way. Our leader is on his way here and should reach soon. I suggest you take this time to think about it. As a gesture of our sincerity, I guarantee we will not attack you. What do you think?”

“Hmm? it looks like you are really sincere.” Hong Dali considered. “Okay, we will wait and see, then.”

“No problem.” Carter waved his hand at the Zerg Knights behind him. “Everyone move back one kilometer and wait for orders.”
