96103 frustratedly carried SVD on his shoulders and put his butt on a pony in the tent, sighing, "I thought Persephone could send someone who could solve the problem, but looking at the way it looks, you don't know as much about the Dark Beetle as we do...... To deal with these bugs, it is not enough to have strong strength. ”

Qi Lin touched his nose and was a little speechless for a while.

Zero Three is right, to defeat the strong with the weak, to fight more and less, this is a characteristic unique to many social insects, for example, in the old times, in Africa, there is a kind of marching ants, once these small ants come in swarms, can make a whole army of heavily armed people smell and change color, these marching ants, relying on the strength of the individual.

One or two Dark Beetle Qi Lin may be able to kill directly with a bone blade, but if more than ten Dark Beetles besiege Qi Lin, then Qi Lin will gradually fall into a disadvantage, if you add the black mist, and then increase the number of Dark Beetles to twenty......

Let's let Frost and Zero Three wait to collect their bodies......

"And what do you recommend?" Qi Lin glanced at Frost and Zero Three and asked.

"If you have the permission, ask Persephone to bring in a few flamethrowers, and use the kind of high-end goods of metal fuel, the normal low-temperature flames will not work on those bugs at all, or, simply abandon this area and let another consortium develop it." Zero Three said calmly.

Metal fuel? Even in Thunder City, there won't be a lot of this kind of thing, and even if Persephone has it, it will definitely not be wasted on a group of bugs, and when it comes to giving up, it seems that it is a bit too early to give up.

Qi Lin suddenly thought of his experience when dealing with the Assasin Spider Swarm, and asked, "Have you noticed where the leader of this group of dark beetles is, such as the Worm King Insect Queen or something, if there is no leader, their actions cannot be so orderly. ”

All social creatures should have a leader, otherwise, in the course of a long life, there will inevitably be chaos, even for human beings.

The beast swarm has a beast king, and the swarm should also have a worm queen.

A group of dark beetles under the command of a leader can be as powerful as an army, otherwise, some stragglers will not gather together at all, let alone condense a black fog as vast as a football field at one time.

But who knows, Frost and Zero Three both shook their heads.

"Nope. We've observed a swarm from a distance, and there are no special individuals, unless the leaders of the bugs are almost identical in appearance to normal individuals and can hide themselves in the swarm - but, as you know, it's really unlikely. ”

"It's very unlikely, but at least it's still a possibility—let's go get your gear ready, and we'll go outside the camp tonight to observe the movement of these bugs, and then make a decision."

……

……

At night, in an abandoned office building five hundred meters away from the "Lexing Star Shield Ninth Camp", Qi Lin and the three of them gathered in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of an office on the fourth floor of the office building, silently solving the cold can that they were holding as dinner.

The floor-to-ceiling windows had already been shattered, and the cold wind kept pouring into this empty and large office, if it weren't for the fact that the three of them were evolutionaries, their strength was far beyond ordinary people, and they would have been frozen at this time.

"According to the law of the activities of this group of dark beetles, generally in the early hours of the morning, they will cruise around the outside of the camp, and occasionally attack the lone players on duty in the camp, but I don't know why, after so many days, even the insects should understand that it is not difficult to eat this camp, but they have never really launched a full-scale attack on the entire ninth camp."

Zero Three put away the half-eaten cans and leaned behind the SVD in the window, looking back and forth through the sights on the SVD to see where several dark beetles might appear.

At night in the wasteland, the brightness of the light refracted to the ground through the moon is not high, and the dark beetle's dark carapace is particularly easy to hide, and generally people at this distance cannot detect the trace of the dark beetle at all, but Zero Three is different, her evolution gene has an ability that coincides with Qi Lin-dark vision.

Qi Lin also held PSG-1 and aimed at the intersection at the other end, so that under the cross-vision of the two, if the dark beetle wanted to approach the camp, it would definitely be discovered by one of the two.

As for Frost, at this time she was the most idle of the three.

The night was getting darker and darker, and there were many fewer players walking around in the ninth camp, and just when everyone thought that the dark beetle would not appear, in Qi Lin's scope, a black shadow suddenly turned out from a street corner.

"It's coming!"

Qi Lin shouted in a low voice, and Zero Three immediately turned the muzzle of the gun to that street entrance.

It was a huge gray-black beetle, lying on the ground like an upside-down, flattened oval face, but once it was delivered, it was quite astonishingly fast.

The beetle sped diagonally through and stopped in a backlit corner about two hundred meters from the camp.

"That's the outpost, used to identify targets and directions for the swarm forces." Zero Three pressed his face tightly against the stock of the SVD's gun and explained to Qi Lin in a whisper.

Due to the dark beetle, during this time, there were basically no people patrolling the perimeter of the camp in the ninth camp, and the only sentry was a guard on the roof.

Camp 9 was built on the corner of the street from an old "Golden Arches" restaurant, and on the iconic giant "M" lettering, two players with old-fashioned bolt-action rifles and thick cotton clothes crouched, judging from the performance of the two, it was obvious that the camp had not yet been targeted by the Dark Beetle.

"Are you saying that the bugs haven't stormed the camp before?" Qi Lin asked the two of them while staring at the insect lurking in the shadows.

"Never, the old lady is also very strange, obviously if those insects attack the camp, no one will survive......" Hanshuang muttered quietly behind Qi Lin.

"Could it be that there's something in the camp that makes them jealous?" Speaking of this, Zero Three is also full of doubts.

It's like a pack of jackals surrounding a large flock of sheep that has no power to resist, but then they are slow to attack...... Although the game is a completely simulated environment, the subsequent behavior of mutated creatures depends on the calculation of the main brain, and there should be no such extremely abnormal behavior.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, just like the Li family castle, if it weren't for Isaac's reason, those different kinds of mutated creatures wouldn't have gathered together-

"Wait, what's that?!" Qi Lin originally planned to turn around and get a telescope with thermal imaging function in his backpack, but the moment he turned his head, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a black figure standing on an abandoned high-rise building nearly a kilometer away!

And the figure, with an arm stretched straight ahead, maintained a very strange posture—
