?Yes…? With Li Nianwei consoling her, Zhang Yi pouted again, but was feeling better.

It was obvious that she was depressed about having caused so much trouble.

At this time, little Bai Hechou, who was about as tall as a seven- or eight-year-old child, walked over quietly. He looked at Hong Dali with eyes that shone like black gemstones. ?Papa, is it… because of me??

?Ah, no.? Hong Dali hugged little Bai Hechou with a big smile. ?Our little Bai Hechou is such a good boy. How could it be because of you?? As he spoke he gently rubbed little Bai Hechou?s nose and said, ?Papa will take care of you. You just have to grow up happily. If I can?t even protect my son, I wouldn?t be of much use!?

?Papa…? Little Bai Hechou buried his head in Hong Dali?s shoulder. ?Papa is the best, hehe!?

?That?s for sure!?

?Dali.? Jiang Qianxue was moved as she watched them. She asked softly, ?What shall we do next? Now that we have more or less figured out the cause, the important thing is, what should we do now??

At this time, what was most important was what they should do next.

?Since the Zergs? target is my son,? Hong Dali stroked his chin and said gravely, ?this is what we can do. First, determine if my son is really the inducement of King Zergs. To prove this, I have decided to advance the carrier and observe the movement of those Zergs. If they just stare at us and make no move towards Earth, then it is confirmed. If they bypass us and attack Earth, then the conclusion is also obvious.?

His plan was simple and effective.

They would move the four carriers forward and distance themselves from Earth. If the Zerg only targeted the carrier that Hong Dali and the others were on, then their guess was confirmed. If the target was still Earth…

Gamble. All they could do now was take a gamble!

?Okay!? The crowd replied loudly, ?Let?s try it out! Let?s see if it works!?

Now that the decision had been made, they moved the carrier toward deep space. When they were more than ten million kilometers away from Earth, they were almost upon the zombie Zergs.

This position was relatively safe, and it was perfect for testing the Zergs.

Everyone?s palms were sweating.

Whether the Zergs? target was Earth or little Bai Hechou was a matter of great concern, and everyone could not help but worry about it.

If the target was indeed Earth, it would be troublesome. There were still people who had not evacuated yet. There were simply too many of them. It would be hard to evacuate everyone in just a few days.

However, if their target was little Bai Hechou, there was only one choice?war!

If it came to that, honestly, no one had much confidence in winning the battle.

Ordinary Zergs, mutated Zergs, Zerg Knights, as well as the King Zergs that might appear in the future were all very hard to deal with. When all of them were gathered together…

?Let?s give all we?ve got!? This was what everyone thought.

The effect of Hong Dali?s tactic was obvious. All the Zerg in space soon started moving!

They first started to disperse, then they started moving forward. Cleverly, they went around the zombie Zergs and from far, started to survey the carrier Hong Dali and the rest were on.

None of the Zergs even looked at Earth. There was not a single Zerg headed towards Earth!

When everyone saw that, they all took a deep breath.

This was the best and also the worst outcome.

The good thing was, the people on Earth could take their time evacuating the planet. The bad thing was that Hong Dali and the rest could not leave. Fighting a bloody battle was their only choice. There was no second choice.

?Since it has come to this,? Hong Dali clenched his fist tight, ?let?s fight!?

The minutes and seconds slipped by. Both parties faced each other like that for an entire week. Hong Dali and the rest were unable to come up with any other ideas as to what they could do except continue preparing for battle.

The Zergs did not take the initiative to attack. It was probably because of the presence of the zombie Zergs. The ordinary Zergs were afraid of getting infected, so they dared not go near them. Also, since little Bai Hechou was still here, they were not in a hurry to move.

On the seventh day, at about 8 PM Earth time, most of the people on Earth had been evacuated. At 10 PM, the situation changed!

In the space carrier.

?Reporting.? A guard rushed into the meeting room and reported loudly, ?A large swarm of Zergs has appeared. There are also a lot of small beings that are probably Zerg Knights and mutated Zergs.

They were finally here!

Since the Zerg Knights had come, the battle that was to ensure would be much tougher.

?Everyone, get ready!? Hong Dali shouted decisively, ?Retreat! Our next battleground is Earth!?

The Zerg Knights had arrived. The following battle would be on Earth instead of out in space where the Zerg had the biggest advantage. Otherwise, with so many Zerg Knights, if they fought in space, the space carriers full of people, mecha, and fighter spacecraft would be shot full of holes.

On the other hand, when they got to the surface of Earth, the Zergs would have to watch their movement since they would be concerned about little Bai Hechou?s safety.

Otherwise, if little Bai Hechou died, and the inducement to become King Zergs disappeared, the Zergs would be very depressed…

Rumble…

The four Second-order Stellar carriers began to retreat. While they were retreating, everyone continued observing the movement of the Zergs out in space and this was what they saw!

There were thousands of Zerg Knights clad in a variety of armor! The armor on these Zerg Knights was similar to Hong Dali?s Mechanical Holy Garment, but theirs looked better. Their eyes glowed with a red light and they held incomparably sharp weapons in their hands. They flew through space, their speed super fast, comparable to the speed of the space carrier!

Soon, the Zerg Knights flew to the front of the zombie Zergs. These Zerg Knights did not look big in space, but their strength was soon evident to Hong Dali and the others?no wonder Yin Tianzong and the other Galaxy Aristocrats went pale when the mutated Zergs were mentioned. These Zerg Knights were really powerful!

Almost one thousand Zerg Knights stopped when they got near the zombie Zergs. They arranged themselves into a net-shaped formation in space, then the corrosive particle-beam cannon on their shoulders opened. Soon the energy began to consolidate and, once a sizable amount of energy had been gathered, all the corrosive particle-beam cannon of the Zerg Knights fired in unison!

Boom?!!!

It was easy to explain the power of the combined corrosive particle-beam cannon of almost a thousand Zerg Knights. It made a huge hole in the middle of the 300 million zombie Zergs after they fought amongst themselves. Thirty million zombie Zergs were killed by the particle cannons!

?God!? Hong Dali and others sat on the space carrier, staring at the power of these Zerg Knights, stunned. ?This… this is almost as powerful as the main cannon of a space carrier? Such a large range? Such high damage??

Feng Wuhen sighed and said, ?Damn, that?s why it?s a headache to meet Zerg Knights. Do not underestimate them based on their size. They are very powerful. Honestly, we do not have much of an advantage when fighting against them. The Galaxy Aristocrats have fought them many times and…?

?And?? Hong Dali opened his eyes wide. ?Did you win or lose??

?Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose.? Feng Wuhen shrugged. ?Energy users and land mechas are an even match for these Zerg Knights. Now, do you understand why we have the Galaxy Mecha Competition? The real purpose of the competition is to find strong fighters who are able to fight against the Zerg Knights.?

Hong Dali finally understood.

Simply put, the Galaxy Super Mecha Wars were targeted at dealing with the mutated Zergs. The Galaxy Mecha Competition was targeted at dealing with Zerg Knights!

Damn. I have already said that things are not so simple out in the universe!

While everyone was lost in their thoughts, the Zerg Knights had started advancing. Behind these Zerg Knights were numerous mutated Zergs!

At this time, the drone spacecraft transmitted its findings to them?

Zerg Knights, 869. Mutated Zergs, 55 million.

Eight hundred and sixty-nine fully equipped Zerg Knights, 55 million mutated Zergs! There were also about five billion ordinary Zergs. According to this ratio, they would be able to evolve about four King Zergs!

?So many mutated Zergs…? Hong Dali rubbed his chin and suddenly said anxiously, ?No, this is not right!?

?What?s wrong?? Everyone asked.

?There are so many mutated Zergs and so many ordinary Zergs.? Hong Dali said quietly, ?The numbers are out of proportion. Only 10 million mutated Zergs are needed for one King Zerg, but there are 55 million mutated Zergs here this time! According to this ratio, there should be five King Zergs. But I have only one little Bai Hechou. How are they going to divide him??

After hearing what Hong Dali said, everyone immediately started thinking about it seriously.

Hong Dali was right, this ratio was wrong.

?Zerg Knights, mutated Zergs, King Zergs, ordinary Zergs.? Hong Dali closed his eyes in thought. ?So many of them, what are they trying to do??

According to the numbers that corresponded to the evolution of one King Zerg, the situation this time was definitely not so simple!

If they counted the ordinary and mutated Zergs that they had killed previously, that would be about 60 million mutated Zergs and 6 billion ordinary Zergs. Numbers like these were enough to make six King Zergs!

Even if they considered the smallest possible number, that was five of them, which was still a lot.

However, there was only one little Bai Hechou on Earth. How were the five King Zergs going to share him? Unless…
