Chapter 366: The Mutant Bug Queen
Seeing that the time was almost up, Luo Han and Shadow set off and came to the station of the Heavenly Ghost Regiment.
knocked on the door, and after a while, Yu Ji came out, took a list and said: "We have analyzed the current prices of various levels of worm hearts, excluding added values such as rarity and difficulty of acquisition, and priced based on the reserve energy value, this is the value table." β
Luo Han took the list and looked at it, this is a positioning based on 1, the names of several of the insects are known to him, and the value comparison is generally the same as what he saw.
Seeing that Luo Han didn't have any objections, Yu Ji continued: "Hanfeng-kun wants to exchange the worm hearts of low-level bugs for the worm hearts of high-level bugs, considering that the trial ground may offer a certain premium exchange for the worm hearts of high-grade bugs, so we will also increase the value of high-grade worm hearts accordingly, does Hanfeng-kun have an opinion on this?" β
What Yu Ji said is indeed possible, because purer energy means that it is easier to purify, but Luo Han shook his head: "Your table was originally drawn up with reference to the price in the Federation, and it already contains this element, and in fact, whether the Proving Ground will do this is just speculation, so I can't agree." β
After a pause, Luo Han continued: "I can give you a premium of twenty percent, and let you exchange one hundred for one hundred and two of mine. β
Yuhime shook her head: "I think it should be to compress the value of your goods by 20%. We exchange eighty for a hundred. β
"Hehe......" Luo Han laughed dryly, there is still a big gap between this, but Luo Han doesn't care very much, he thought about it and said, "Yes, but I want to see what you have first." β
Yu Ji hesitated, took out a bunch of small insect hearts from the watch, Luo Han glanced twice, estimated the number of low-level insect hearts in his hand, took out a bunch of insect hearts from the watch and said, "Order a little, I want all of these." β
You Ji didn't pretend to be generous, took out the calculator and counted them one by one, took out most of the worm hearts, and nodded: "Hanfeng Jun, the number of these worm hearts is just right, you can take that pile." β
Luo Han suddenly smiled and said: "You Ji, you are very careful, I admire you very much, it just so happens that there is a vacancy in my team now, are you interested in transferring to the Huaxia District after this trial?" β
Yu Ji's face changed drastically, and she said angrily: "Cold Wind Lord, please don't say such things. My loyalty to the Yamato nation is unshakable. β
"Really?" Luo Han put away the worm heart, left a meaningful smile, and turned to leave: "I hope we can cooperate happily next time we meet." β
This time, less than half of the low-level insect hearts were traded, but Luo Han was also satisfied, after all, the Heavenly Ghost Group did not specialize in hunting the Zerg, and there were not too many high-level insect hearts at hand, which Luo Han had already been mentally prepared for.
On the way, the shadow asked, "Captain, which woman do you really want to accept?" β
Luo Han shook his head: "I'm not interested in recruiting Japanese, and her ability is not what I want." It's just a casual thing to provoke the interior of the Heavenly Ghost Troupe. This woman is very scheming, and she can see at a glance that I am sowing discord. Remember that cherry blossom? This is a populist group, extremely dangerous, and it is impossible for us to live in real peace. So if you can get rid of this woman with one sentence, why not? β
The shadow suddenly said: "Although she saw the captain's intentions, the others did not necessarily believe in her loyalty, no matter what, this thorn was buried." β
Luo Han looked at the sky and suddenly sighed: "To be honest, I really haven't figured out what kind of person to recruit to add to the team." At this stage, there are really not many scattered people who are still alone. β
The corners of the shadow's mouth moved, but she didn't speak.
Luo Han suddenly said again: "Shadow, do you want to become an official member?" β
"Yes." Shadow blurted out, and then added, "But no matter who the captain chooses, I have no opinion." Because I believe that the captain treats everyone equally. β
Luo Han smiled and said, "I like your answer, but I'm actually not sure about this matter." Let me tell you privately, I'm hesitating between you and the nightmare right now. Nightmare's ability can be said to be extremely rare, and it has an extremely important role at certain times, and Nightmare has a good sense of the overall situation and a very clear thinking, if it is not for weak combat effectiveness, it will be a very powerful character. But your abilities have really helped the team a lot along the way, and as an Assassin, you also need stat bonuses more than Nightmares. β
The shadow hurriedly said: "Captain, no matter how you choose me, I have no opinion, this is true." β
Luo Han shook his head: "I'm really not sure now." In this way, I will give you a task, if you complete it, you are a full member, and if you don't complete it, I will mention the nightmare. β
The shadow nodded, "Captain, you say." β
"In this trial, kill the ghost warrior. We won't give you any extra help, you have to do it on your own. It's done, and I will make you a full member, and no one else will have an opinion. β
The shadow thought for a moment and said, "I accept." β
"You don't tell anyone about this, you talk about the results, understand?"
"Understood."
Ending the conversation, the two flew silently towards the landing point. The current storm squad, the only official members are Luo Han, Meng Fei, Xiao Yumeng and Crazy Dragon, which directly exclude Liu Nian and Zhao Qian, who are meat shield warriors, in fact, Luo Han is more inclined to supplement the nightmare of perception expertise, but the combat effectiveness of the nightmare is indeed a short board, as for Linglong, Luo Han actually doesn't think she has much potential. The shadow is actually Luo Han's favor, but the shadow has never come up with any boastful records, even if he succeeds in several assassinations, it is also an opportunity created by the team, compared to the leadership that Nightmare has established in the hearts of others, some cannot convince the public. So Luo Han must let Shadow come up with convincing skills. The life of the captain of a team of the same batch is naturally convincing, and it depends on whether the shadow can grasp it.
Returning to the foothold, the two didn't say a word about the conversation on the road, packed up their things, and everyone moved to a new area to continue hunting the zerg.
The general insect hives are no longer in the eyes of the five-person group, even if Luo Han often has to help Han Qing guard the refining weapon, there are only four people, and they can kill one insect hive after another intact. This trial is actually a mismatch in difficulty for them who have been greatly improved in the secret realm.
Han Qingwei's armor also slowly came out a little, with Luo Han's helper, Han Qingwei put his theory to life as much as possible, determined to create a set of super-level armor. Several magic circles had to be carefully carved on each piece of material, each joint had to be patiently polished for several hours, and every detail had to be scrutinized dozens of times. On top of that, the seven-sided bone shield with scaling and weight reduction circles has also been formed, with a few extra features just to add.
On this day, Luo Han was still in the cave carefully using mana to carve the magic circle on the armor, and Han Qingwei was patiently beating with a small hammer on the bone shield on the side to judge the difference in materials, and suddenly there was a deafening explosion outside the cave, and the earth shook violently.
Luo Han was affected by the shock, and a complex magic circle halfway carved with mana collapsed, and his mood was greatly affected, so he walked to the entrance of the cave and removed the camouflage to see what was happening.
A huge spaceship crashed to the ground a kilometer away from Luo Han, billowing smoke, and nearly a hundred soldiers in individual armor fled in a panic in the direction away from the spaceship. In the middle of the spaceship, a group of strange-looking bugs crawled out slowly, these insects were similar to human size, with a long triangular head, a pigtail dragging behind the head, a short and thick neck, a dark brown body, an erect chest, six slender knobs on the abdomen for walking, and two pairs of arms that resembled human palms. What's even more peculiar is that these zergs also have weapons in their hands that are clearly from human warriors, and there are even a few zergs who shoot at the fleeing human soldiers with energy guns while running.
"What is this?" Luo Han felt incredible, rushed out of the cave with a thought, kicked a warrior who fled in this direction to the ground, quickly disassembled his armor with violence, and dragged him directly back into the cave.
The unlucky soldier was already stunned, and was slapped twice by Luo Han in the corner before he reacted, and hurriedly shouted: "Help!" Help me! Don't kill me! β
Luo Han asked, "What's going on?" How did you end up here? β
The soldier hurriedly said: "Our spaceship was invaded by a mutant bug, and many warriors were quietly devoured, and the mutant worm used their bodies as nourishment, bred a large number of soldier bugs, occupied the spaceship, and drove the spaceship to this bug star." β
Luo Han was puzzled: "Soldier insects? Is it the kind of bug that has long hands? β
"Yes, those soldier insects have inherited the memories of those who were devoured by the insect queen, can operate everything on the ship, can also use weapons skillfully, and are amazingly resilient, very difficult to kill. There's really nothing we can resist, please get me out of here, I don't want to be sucked into the skin by those disgusting guys. β
Luo Han ignored the soldiers' pleas, and when he arrived at the entrance of the cave, he looked out, and it was obvious that the two legs had not been able to run past six legs, and many soldiers had already been chased by soldiers and insects, killed by weapons, and their bodies were dragged out of their armor. A monster with an upper body that resembles a human woman, but has a big belly like a spider, and is several times the size of a human climbs to the side of the corpse, stretches out a tentacle from the abdomen, and inserts it into the corpse's head, and the corpse shrinks at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon becomes a dry skin, and the belly of the insect queen is also obviously bigger. The tail of the queen then spits out a huge egg, which falls to the ground, and quickly hatches a soldier insect. When the soldier insect first hatched, it was only the size of a seven or eight-year-old child, and it was extremely shriveled, but as soon as it landed, it quickly expanded to the size of a normal soldier insect, and then joined the hunt.
Luo Han saw that one of the fleeing soldiers shot behind him in despair, and the energy beam pierced the bodies of several soldiers and insects, leaving a scorched black hole, but soon, countless flesh buds grew around the hole, tangled together, and it was intact after a while.
Luo Han closed the entrance to the cave, returned to the captured soldiers, and asked, "How much do you know about this kind of soldier insect?" β
The soldier was about to cry: "Man, run away, these guys have a nose better than a hound, and it's useless to hide here." β
Luo Han continued to ask, "How much do you know about the soldiers?" β
The soldier cried: "There is no time......"
Luo Han slapped him: "Answer me!" β
"This is a consumable class of troops that are bred after mutant worms, generated by sucking humans, with strong strength and speed, with most of the memories of the dead, and can operate all weapons that people can operate. They gain great strength and regenerative power through an ultra-fast metabolism, and usually die automatically after ten hours of birth, and if given a heavy blow, their death can be accelerated. β
"What's going on with the Mutant Bug Queen?"
"This is a special Zerg bred by the Zerg Queen, which appeared specifically for human warriors, and she has three major abilities: first, super resilience, which cannot be killed unless it is shattered into molecules; the second is super fecundity, as long as it sucks humans, it can quickly hatch soldiers; The third is the ability to disguise, which can control the body, change into a human form, and blend into the crowd. β
Luo Han frowned and asked, "The mutant insect queen is so powerful, what is the matter with the Zerg Queen?" β
The soldier was surprised: "You don't even know the queen of the Zerg? Even elementary school students have learnedβ"
Luo Han unceremoniously slapped the soldier: "You just need to answer." β
"The Zerg Queen is the supreme ruler of a Zerg star, possessing a strange ability to control the thoughts and actions of other Zerg, and can breed targeted mutant queens against different enemies. At present, human beings have a relatively limited understanding of the Zerg Queen, and several times they have observed that the Zerg Queen is in human form on the battlefield, which should only be her mimic. Experts speculate that the Zerg Queen herself should not have strong combat power, so she has never personally fought in wars. However, the military is not sure, because since the human expansion process came into contact with the Zerg for more than a hundred years, the battle for the planet with the Zerg has ended in failure, and there is no time when the Zerg Queen has to take action herself. In fact, since the Zerg does not have the ability to leap in space, if it weren't for the millions of immigrants in the R9 star field who are threatened by this Zerg, the federal government would not have paid attention to the Zerg at all. βγ
Luo Han thought for a while, and then asked, "I heard that there are Zerg Queen eggs on this Worm Star, what's going on?" β
"Actually, this is just speculation on the part of the military department. According to previous research reports, each Zerg star has a Zerg queen, and when the Zerg queen of a bug star is ready to conquer another planet, she will lay a queen bug egg, and let this egg hatch into a new Zerg queen to take over the Bug star. Recently, various Zerg with space operations have frequently left the Zerg to launch attacks, which is considered to be a signal that the Zerg is about to expand externally, so the military speculates that the Zerg queen on this planet has begun to hatch the next queen, and once the hatching is completed, a full-scale war will be launched. β
