The group rested in small clusters, lying in the shade of trees on a sparsely vegetated slope. They chewed on grass stalks to ward off their exhaustion.
Fortunately, an hour later, from their vantage point on the slope, they saw the Swarm below the main peak of White Grass Mountain begin to retreat in droves back into its cave, holing up inside.
Before long, a woman in a long white dress emerged from the main cave entrance, seated atop a six-meter Giant Red Beetle.
Lin Feng immediately led his squad forward to meet her.
Seeing the Reproductive Armor Mecha approach, Ling Yi stood up.
"I've already taken control of the main Hive."
"The Yunxia Ridge Mother Empress stationed a quarter of her Swarm here. It's about ten thousand Black Spine Zergs, over a hundred Tier Two Tiger Spine Zergs, and twenty to thirty thousand Red-Armored Beetles."
"Under my command, they've begun harvesting all nearby trees to continue stockpiling Biomass Energy for the Hatching Nest."
