Over the Nest

When the "crystalline hornworm" swarm passed through the artificial wormhole and turned the Titan mining base into a shimmering ruins of crystal clusters, humans realized that the Zerg had already mastered the technology of inter-galactic jump. Captain Wang Yue of the Earth Defense Force escorted the "Space-Time Anchor" to the wormhole hub - a device that can block the Zerg's jump channel. The core component is actually a biological crystal extracted from the body of the "Shadow Hidden Pterus", and the energy fluctuations of the crystal are completely consistent with the signal of the "Deep Space Exploration" spacecraft that disappeared ten years ago.​ Wang Yue's girlfriend was a pioneer in the "Great Wall Around the Equator" project. In the last image she left behind, the giant Zerg "Void Insect Mother" flashed in the background, breathing out the same light as the "Space-time Anchor". When the Zerg main fleet besieged the hub, Wang Yue discovered that the identity chips of human astronauts were embedded in the crystallized material of the "Crystalized Hornworms". When the "Space-Time Anchor" was activated, the fragments of consciousness transmitted from the crystals contained fragmented memories of the interstellar civilization shared by the Zerg and humans.​ Is it to activate the instrument to block the wormhole and isolate the possible truth of civilization? Or risk going deep into the wormhole to find the connection between the origin of life and the evolution of the Zerg?
