Description

No English translation yet

1. This mod is large-scale and has a development system independent of the original. It will take some time to familiarize yourself with the mod.
2. This mod contains anime art elements, so there are no plans for a non-anime version.
3. This is a mod with relatively high strength overall.
4. In a Arachnae colony, death and rebirth are frequent events.

Long before the dawn of human civilization, the Arachnae Swarm—that ancient and deadly Gestalt consciousness—extended the tentacles of its hive mind into the stars. Like cosmic army ants, they assimilated everything in their path, dimmed the stars, and reduced world after world to a cold node in the hive network.

However, their endless expansion eventually met a formidable enemy. In a desperate struggle, the coalition forces from the Glittering World miraculously severed the bonds of the Arachnae's will. In an instant, billions of Arachnae legions were reduced to headless flies across the starry sea, their remnants scattered and dormant on forgotten fringe worlds...

But this was far from the end. This was just one of the Swarm's countless tentacles. Now, in this corner abandoned by civilization, a dormant terror is quietly awakening. The Arachnae Swarm is about to reassert its dominance over the fringe worlds and once again join the Swarm's forces in its all-consuming crusade.

Hive Mind:

Arachnae Swarm colonies are Gestalt Consciousness colonies. They are centered around the Queen, who oversees the Arachnae Overlords, who in turn oversee the Arachnae Auxiliaries. Each has a clear division of labor and performs its own duties.

Oviparous Beasts:

Arachnae Swarms are born from eggs laid by the Queen, rather than the inefficient live birth method. They can transform from fragile eggs into powerful warriors in a matter of days to dozens of days, ready to immediately engage in work and combat.

Flesh Legion:

Arachnae's Swarm do not wield traditional firearms—their weapons are the armaments born from Arachnae's incubation cocoons. These metamorphosed, single-organ life forms, spewing acid, poison, and parasites, yet these dangerous weapons still deter their enemies.

Directed Evolution:

Arachnae's Swarm possess numerous subspecies. They can transform into one of these subspecies based on the needs of the Hive Mind, sacrificing one aspect of their power to gain another.

Master Builder:

Arachnae's Swarm possesses powerful terrain adaptability. They can spread their fungal blanket and build nests based on the local environment, taking root in places as frigid as ice caps or scorching as volcanoes.

Eternal March:

All consciousness of the Arachnae Swarm ultimately converges upon Arachnae's Queen Race. Therefore, all non-Queen Race Arachnae in Arachnae have only the most basic physiological needs—the Swarm fears no death and only continues to march forward until it brings its destined fall to the enemy.
