Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system-Chapter 264 Zerg

Soon, the decaying smell emanating from the mutated deer's body seemed to attract something within the nest. A hissing sound echoed, followed by a giant bug about one meter in size, with a golden-yellow body, slowly crawling out of the nest.

"Zerg King ?" David couldn't help but blurt out in speculation upon seeing the bug. As the Zerg King appeared, all the surrounding insects lowered their heads deeply in reverence. Clearly, this Zerg King was regarded as a god-like presence in the perception of these insects.

David crouched down, continuing to gaze at the scene before him. After crawling out of the nest, the bug's mouth, adorned with two huge fangs, devoured the mutated deer's carcass. At the moment the food entered its stomach, the golden-yellow light on its body grew increasingly radiant, as if it was being empowered.

Observing the aura emitted by the Zerg King , David decided to uncover the origins of this creature. Although the post-apocalyptic world was full of various bizarre zombie-like monsters, he hadn't expected a mere insect to mutate to such a terrifying extent. He felt that this Zerg King seemed to have a close connection to the desolate world, otherwise, it wouldn't have survived in such a place.

However, David didn't intend to draw the Zerg King 's attention for now. With possibly tens of thousands of insects in this forest and the unpredictable strength of the Zerg King , he didn't want to take the risk.

After pondering for a moment, David remembered the old man at the Abyssal Graveyard. The old man had mentioned that David could approach him anytime if he needed help, indicating he had a good understanding of the world.

So, David quietly retreated from the forest and returned to the initial valley. He took out the bronze compass and opened the outer glass cover. David turned the compass needle three times clockwise. Right after this, a dense mist and miasma suddenly emerged from the void, and the small wooden hut appeared before David's eyes.

"Kid, what's the matter that you're bothering me in the middle of the night?" The old man seemed to be sleeping but was summoned by David.

With a slightly apologetic smile, David said, "I'm really sorry to disturb you so late, but I want to know the background of that Zerg King in the forest."

"Zerg King ? When did you go there?" Upon hearing this, the old man's expression turned somewhat nervous as he stared at David.

"Just a moment ago, I stumbled upon it unintentionally," David didn't go into the details, he just wanted to know the origin of these insects.

"No conflict with that guy?" The old man's expression remained tense, and David shook his head.

"That's good, that's good! Luckily you're fortunate, otherwise, you would've caused a great disaster!" David felt even more confused by his words.

In his view, the old man possessed deep and unfathomable strength. Why did he seem worried and fearful when discussing these insects? So he asked again, "What are those insects exactly? Are they related to the laws of the wasteland world?"

The old man glanced at David and sat down on a nearby bamboo chair, saying, "They are the Zerg of the wasteland world, controlling everything here. The Zerg King you saw is the leader of the Zerg, It can command all the insects in the wasteland world. It's because of their presence that this place has become so wasteland ." The old man sighed as if remembering something, then added, "The ruler of all in this wasteland, Zerg King " 𝚋ｅ𝚍ｎ𝚘ｖｅ𝚕．𝚘𝚛𝚐

David sensed the underlying message in the old man's words. In other words, all the rules here are controlled by the Zerg, represented by Zerg King , and all the zombie-like monsters are its subjects.

However, David felt that the old man's words were a bit exaggerated. He had encountered mutated creatures like the Fierce Spirit Golden Beetles during the apocalypse, and he had defeated them with ease. After all, it was just an insect. How much of a threat could it pose? Could it really dominate all life here?

Looking at the old man, David felt that he was trying to intimidate him. The old man noticed the skepticism in David's eyes and became somewhat anxious.

"I'm already quite old. Can't I even deceive you? Let me tell you, Zerg King 's level surpassed the twelfth level long ago, and it's even approaching the level of a Demon King. Can you imagine its strength? I've seen a young man about your age who came here wanting to challenge Zerg King . However, it let out a roar that scared him away. Even some high-level zombies can only be considered snacks in its eyes." The old man stood up and explained to David in a series of words.

The old man knew David didn't believe him, but he was the first human to enter this wasteland world, so he naturally had an unparalleled understanding of everything here. Listening to the old man's words, David suddenly realized that the young man mentioned earlier was probably Danny. However, by now, that guy had become a lonely ghost.

"At the beginning, the wasteland world was an oasis of survival independent of the apocalypse. There were no zombie-like monsters or mutated animals here. There were green mountains, clear waters, and fragrant flowers, just like a paradise. But those insects suddenly appeared from somewhere, and in just a few days, they used their powerful reproductive abilities to fill every corner with their own species. As a result, they completely destroyed everything here. The first insect that entered also established the Zerg centered around it. Under its influence, numerous powerful zombie-like monsters gradually emerged. The Zerg's strength has surpassed our human imagination." The old man explained the origin of the wasteland world to David, with a sense of nostalgia in his eyes and a heavy tone in his voice.

Listening, David gained a deeper understanding of the wasteland world. However, he was surprised to learn that this place used to be a human survival oasis and had now turned into a wasteland land.

"Is this really the work of the Zerg?" David mumbled to himself as he surveyed the barren mountains and hills around him. Even so, he didn't find the Zerg's strength to be as formidable as others claimed.

In the apocalypse, David was someone who became stronger when faced with challenges. Now in the wasteland world, he was striving to increase his strength. How could he submit to a Zerg?

However, David also understood that now wasn't the right time to confront Zerg King or eliminate the Zerg. He had just arrived and needed to grasp all the rules here before he could efficiently defeat Zerg King .

In battles, David never engaged in unprepared combat. As soon as he took action, there was only one outcome: the opponent becoming a lifeless corpse.
