Rise of the Zerg in the World of Gods

As both made their choices, the shadows of Xu Luo and Xiang Xun's Divine Realms appeared above a vast battlefield, two colossal entities positioned at the east and west ends, with a massive arena below.

The battlefield scene could be chosen, but this time both opted for random selection.

Under the watchful eyes of all elite class students through the projection screen, both Divine Realms suddenly burst with light, and units began teleporting to the battlefield.

During the unit transfer process, some internal details of their Divine Realms were revealed to others.

Although only surface details were visible, with deeper aspects hidden, one could still get a general idea. What they saw was enough to surprise everyone.

Xiang Xun's Divine Realm, befitting a direct descendant of the Xiang family, had almost every type of terrain - mountains, rivers, basically encompassing all landforms, nearly forming a complete ecological cycle.

Moreover, abundant resources were exposed on the surface, indicating the richness of his Divine Realm's resources.

While there weren't elaborate buildings, a village had formed, showing his Divine Realm was well-developed.

In contrast, although Xu Luo's Divine Realm had various terrains, there were no visible buildings or resources. Large areas of land were bare, with nothing on them, clearly showing a lack of funds for complete development.

This alone showed the gap between the two.

"What a grand scale!" Seeing Xiang Xun's Divine Realm, even Xu Luo couldn't help but twitch his mouth. The difference was truly enormous.

Although his Divine Realm's output was increasing, it couldn't compare to a pay-to-win player!

Why should someone else's generations of accumulation be surpassed by your ten years of hard work?

At this moment, he deeply understood the meaning of this phrase.

His daily output was now several million, but the other could easily spend hundreds of millions or billions of faith power to nurture their descendants.

So many terrains and resources - how much faith power must that require? It was unimaginable.

"Heh, poor wretch!" Seeing that half of Xu Luo's Divine Realm was barren, without even a single building, Xiang Xun sneered. Although the Zerg didn't need buildings, wouldn't you need other species in the future? Shouldn't buildings be prepared in advance?

"Xu Luo, if you surrender now, there's still time. If all your units die here, a poor wretch like you won't be able to recover from this loss quickly. Don't cry later!"

Xiang Xun laughed triumphantly.

"Good advice is wasted on those bent on destruction!" Xu Luo didn't respond. If someone was so eager to die, what more could he say?

Although he hadn't deployed all his forces this time, for safety, he still sent out a portion: 10,000 each of Acid Zerg, Mantis Zerg, and Beetle Zerg. After all, Dragon Blood Warriors had slightly stronger individual combat power than Two-Headed Ogres, and more importantly, there was also a Burrowing Drake of unknown tier.

He had his eyes on that Burrowing Drake; he wanted those dragon genes!

Even if it was just a sub-dragon species, it didn't matter. As long as it could strengthen his Zerg, it was fine.

Under his command, the Zerg army on the battlefield made the first move.

"Seeking death, daring to move first!" Xiang Xun sneered, also issuing commands.

"Dragon Blood Warriors, full attack!"

"Yes, sir!"

Receiving their God's order, thousands of Dragon Blood Warriors began to mobilize.

In appearance, Dragon Blood Warriors looked no different from humans.

Except they were three meters tall with robust builds.

They generally wielded powerful dragon battle qi. In terms of individual strength, Dragon Blood Warriors were top-tier units among Bronze rank.

Xiang Xun's pride had its basis.

Although he only had about 2,000 Dragon Blood Warriors, this number could sweep through tens of thousands of ordinary units.

After all, these were 2,000 fully equipped Bronze Tier 9 elite units.

The Xiang family had emptied their workshops to produce these 2,000 sets of armor and weapons for the Dragon Blood Warriors.

The two sides' units began to clash.

Although Xu Luo's were only ordinary units, after repeated strengthening, they were approaching elite standards. While still not a match for Dragon Blood Warriors, quantity made up for quality - over tenfold numbers were his confidence.

[Ding! Defeated Dragonkin creature "Dragon Blood Warrior". Chance to plunder related talents "Dragon Scales", "Dragon Blood", "Spellcasting", "Robust Physique", and other related abilities!]

[Ding! Detected sub-dragon creature, Burrowing Drake. Kill to plunder sub-dragon bloodline and obtain "Earth Dragon Gene"!]

"Finally!" Receiving the prompt, Xu Luo's expression changed dramatically. He finally had the gains he wanted. Even if he had to pay a great price, even if he had to sacrifice all the units he had deployed, it would be worth it.

As the two sides battled, Xiang Xun was initially full of confidence. In his view, his Dragon Blood Warriors had equipment and weapons, naturally strong physiques, high defense, and power. Although two of Xu Luo's unit types had high defense and high attack respectively, they shouldn't be able to match his units.

But he never expected that the opponent had another type of unit, which gave him a big "surprise"!

"You were hiding your strength!" Seeing the appearance of the Acid Zerg, Xiang Xun's face turned very ugly. The acid attacks caused great trouble for the Dragon Blood Warriors, forcing them to use battle qi to protect themselves. However, this rapidly consumed their battle qi.

Moreover, because of the Acid Zerg's presence, the Dragon Blood Warriors didn't dare to charge into the Zerg swarm.

With Beetle Zerg defending in front, Acid Zerg spewing acid from behind, and Mantis Zerg waiting for opportunities in the middle, although Dragon Blood Warriors had strong individual power, they still fell one by one.

While they were indeed formidable and took down many of Xu Luo's Zerg, the cost of nurturing the two sides was completely different.

After birth, the Zerg only needed some faith power to raise them to Bronze Tier 9, at most consuming some evolution points.

Dragon Blood Warriors were born at Bronze Tier 9, but their daily needs, equipment, and so on, all added up to an astonishing consumption.

Every fallen warrior made Xiang Xun's heart tremble.

At this point, he deeply regretted coming to provoke Xu Luo, but now he was riding a tiger and couldn't get off. Having started the fight, he naturally couldn't just end it.

Now he could only persist. As long as he defeated Xu Luo and damaged his reputation, achieving his set goal, these losses would still be acceptable.
