Chapter 120 Energy Coin

The giant passage connecting the cave base to the underground base of the Zerg territory has been initially formed.

In order to truly connect the two bases as soon as possible, Wu Qing ordered the worker bees to dig out a space similar to the soldier cave dug by the ghouls at a certain distance in the passage, and then build a Zerg mother nest in this space.

In the entire giant passage, a total of ten spaces were dug, and a Zerg mother nest was built in each space. With these Zerg mother nests, the Zerg fungal blanket will soon cover the entire giant passage.

In this way, the Zerg's newly built cave base is connected to the entire Zerg territory, and even at night, they can support each other.

As long as the connecting passage continues to be widened, the two bases will eventually be integrated into a huge underground base.

According to the needs, Wu Qing added ten new mother nests to the base underground in the Zerg territory, increasing the number of mother nests there to thirty. Together with the twenty mother nests in the cave base and the ten mother nests in the connecting passage, there are a total of sixty mother nests underground in the entire Zerg territory.

The total number of Zerg nests is 120, and half of them are underground.

Wu Qing did not upgrade the newly built nests. The speed of upgrading the nests to one star is very fast. These nests can be upgraded in real time according to the wartime situation to avoid waste.

There are 30 one-star nests for support. Each one-star nest has 30 larvae. After the larvae are consumed, 10 larvae can be replenished every minute. With 90 unupgraded nests, the current speed of Zerg troops is sufficient for the current combat needs.

It is still early, Wu Qing's Zerg substitute returned to the underground base in the Zerg territory. After yesterday's battle and subsequent expansion, the space here has increased by almost half.

Based on the lessons learned from yesterday's battle, the Queen of Zerg made some adjustments to the construction of the entire underground base, focusing on strengthening the ability to deal with various emergencies.

In terms of Zerg troops, Wu Qing plans to increase the number of Hydralisks to 12,000, the number of Zerg puppies has exceeded 100,000, and other Zerg units will be increased as needed.

Since the Zerg's dispatch speed is fast enough, the number of Zerg puppies will increase at any time according to resources and needs, and Wu Qing is ready to hand it over to the Queen of Zerg for control.

Wu Qing will personally inquire and operate the operations such as the Hydralisk and one-star troops and building upgrades that consume gas resources.

Energy resources are relatively easy to obtain, and gas resources are hard to come by!

All the arrangements for the Zerg are in place, and the rest can be handed over to the Queen of Zerg, just waiting for the visit of the ghouls tonight!

…

In Mengzhong City, the stationed Zerg army has discovered the caravan that Meng had mentioned. They have arrived and are trading with the Tengu clan.

After notifying Meng and the lords of the alliance of this news, Wu Qing sent out the Zerg host to carefully observe the trading situation between the caravan and the Tengu clan.

He found that in addition to the Qiyunzhu mentioned by Meng, there is also a common trading currency that Meng did not mention. It is a crystal stone rich in energy. The people in the caravan call it energy coin.

Wu Qing asked Meng and Wu Cong about the issue of energy coins respectively, and learned some information about this currency from them.

The reason why Meng didn't mention energy coins before is that energy coins are currencies that can only be produced and issued by some large territories and large chambers of commerce. They are widely used. In this remote area, energy coins are also one of the commodities that need to be purchased with luck beads.

So for the lords of the alliance, only luck beads are currency, and energy coins are a commodity.

It is understood that energy coins are made by refining various energy-rich ores. The refining and production methods are the core secrets of major territories and large chambers of commerce and will not be disclosed to the public.

Ordinary territories can only exchange mined energy ores for energy coins. This is because the energy contained in energy ores is messy and not conducive to absorption and utilization.

After the energy ore is refined by secret methods and made into energy coins, it is easy to absorb and use. It can be used for cultivation or to provide energy supply for various objects.

Therefore, this energy coin is not only a currency, but also a commodity consumed in large quantities.

Wu Qing took out a few energy coins through the host next to Meng and observed them. He found that the refining and purification technology of these energy coins was completely incomparable to that of the Zerg, and the production process was also quite rough.

Any minerals and materials collected by the Zerg through the worker bees can be converted into pure energy after being transported to the mother nest.

This has nothing to do with the amount of energy contained in the mined materials. For the Zerg, there is no technical difference between refining a piece of stone on the roadside and refining a piece of energy ore rich in energy. The only difference is the amount of energy obtained after refining.

This absolute advantage of the Zerg gave Wu Qing an idea to solve the problem that Daxia Territory has no remaining luck and can be used as currency, and it can also lay the groundwork for the future development of the Zerg.

In addition to the basic luck obtained by Daxia Territory under the protection of the world rules, all other luck has been intercepted by the system and turned into gas resources for the development of the Zerg.

Now if you want to trade something with the Chamber of Commerce outside, you have to exchange precious gas resources, which Wu Qing is not very happy about.

Energy resources are different. In addition to obtaining a large amount of energy on the battlefield, the worker bees of the Zerg can keep mining and provide energy resources continuously.

Relatively speaking, this energy resource is not so precious.

Wu Qing had an idea and cooperated with the Queen. He was responsible for providing needs and ideas, while the Queen was responsible for finding technology and design solutions.

They were very efficient and soon designed the Zerg's biological energy coin based on the characteristics of the energy coin.

The Zerg's energy coin applied the Zerg's powerful biotechnology. The energy purification step was ready-made and did not need to be considered at all. All he needed to consider was how to materialize the absolutely purified system energy using the Zerg's biotechnology.

Since the number of such energy coins was immeasurable, Wu Qing gave up the idea of ​​making energy coins as Zerg living units. These energy coins were real energy coins, and the Zerg would not exercise any control over them.

This made the problem much simpler. All he needed to do was to create a biological material that could store a large amount of energy and was strong enough.

It was easy for the Zerg to make this biological material. The Queen produced several different samples for Wu Qing to choose from. After comprehensive consideration, Wu Qing finally chose a biological material that could change between gold, silver, and brass according to the amount of stored energy.

The Zerg can produce this biological material in large quantities at an extremely low cost.
