    The author's description of the Zerg Hive organization is very detailed, at least the setting is careful, and it can also help to recall biological knowledge. There are battle expansions and daily warmth, and there are no poisonous points. It is considered to be at the top of the Zerg/Lord type of refreshing articles. The step-by-step genetic evolution process from ordinary bees to ferocious Zerg is also very interesting to me, but the cover is a bit abstract.
