Finally! The bees cannot stop us now. Commander, let’s get to Ortek III and blow up the nest. Zenith will learn not to lie to us!

It is possible that the signal from the nest was assisting their targeting calibrations. Disrupting it could have had an impact on their movement.

Been tracking the bees to their nest for days. They move quickly and try to hide their path. They can’t hide it from me.

Wanted to find their nest and stop them. Scare them from expanding further. They know I am coming now, thanks to the Romulan bird, but with you here, we can blow it up.

We believe this to be the Swarm’s equivalent of a local neural net, Admiral. They use to communicate with each other in groups.

My scans are not picking up any signs of a Swarm nest. However, in the past I was able to utilize Swarm Frequency Modulators to hijack their signal.

If we were to gather some more of these Frequency Modulators fitted with the Swarm’s latest frequency, I may be able to track the signal using them.
