Chapter 567: Encountering the Enemy

Wu Qi's consciousness slowly sank, and when he opened his eyes again, his consciousness body was already in a dark red world. The life information of this world is presented as a dark fluid like blood, and the eyes are full of floating tiny bubbles, almost like being inside a pool of blood.

The dark red blood pool world is distributed with bright red and bright light clusters, the light clusters have axons and dendrites like neurons, and one light cluster connects one light cluster, and the blood color network connected together almost fills most of the world.

Wu Qi's consciousness body carefully sensed the "liquid" life information in the blood pool, and after a while, his eyes opened and closed, and he was completely enlightened.

These neuron-like light clusters are alien viruses from other lifeforms, and they are rooted in the cells of the king sand scorpion like parasite eggs, and when they die, they wake up from their slumber and swell violently until they fill the cells of the king sand scorpion's body. These viruses then dominate the corpse of the king sand scorpion, stopping the decay of the corpse at the stage of insufficient blood and organ decay, and at the same time giving the corpse the strength of physical strengthening and free movement.

"It's really like a living corpse, the only downside is that it can't give the corpse resilience. Moreover, the amount of protovirus that entered the body of the king sand scorpion was very small at the beginning, if such a small amount could dominate a third-order plague species, wouldn't the mother body that spread the protovirus be able to casually control a large number of wasteland plague species! Wu Qi's mind was racing.

Wu Qi stayed in the dark red blood pool world for a while until he found the "Light Gate". He obtained the deep information of all the king's sand scorpion genes through contact with the light gate. None of this information had anything to do with the parasite-like alien ability virus, and it didn't bring any help to Wu Qi.

To thoroughly understand the capabilities and limitations of this foreign virus, samples must be taken for experimentation.

Wu Qi decisively withdrew from the world of consciousness and returned to the ontology of the outside world. He opened his eyes again, and Pi Chunsheng was looking at him.

Wu Qi glanced at the glass tube filled with the blood of the king sand scorpion in Pi Chunsheng's hand, the blood inside was dark and viscous, and he could clearly see the neuron-like glowing bloodshot network.

It's the virus that glows in a quantum state. According to past experience, viruses in a quantum state are basically granular; A small number is scattered in the blood, and a large number is distributed in the blood like a star, and a quantum virus like this highly condensed into a light cluster is unheard of.

Pi Chunsheng put the tube of blood into the sample box, and took out a tool to cut a small piece of tissue in the body of the king sand scorpion. Wu Qi reminded Pi Chunsheng not to be touched naked by the blood of Wang Sand Scorpion. Dew's skin, Pi Chunsheng nodded yes.

In fact, Wu Qi had no basis, and Pi Chunsheng didn't know why Wu Qi made such a reminder, but the two of them had the same intuition, thinking that it would be very dangerous to encounter this kind of blood.

The sand was still rolling under the sky, and there was no point in staying outside the car. Wu Qi, Pi Chunsheng and Xiao Kui were about to return to the car, when the sand in front of Wu Qi suddenly flowed, and a half-sized sand scorpion quickly drilled out of the sand and raised its scorpion tail stinger to attack Pi Chunsheng's ankle.

Pi Chunsheng was caught off guard by the sand scorpion's sneak attack, but fortunately, Wu Qi and Xiao Kui's reactions were very fast. It was too late, and a heavy sword and a long knife pierced the sand scorpion's tail and back from two angles, pinning it to the spot.

"Pi Chunsheng, control it!" Wu Qi said quickly.

Pi Chunsheng activated his ability in an instant, and the joints of the six legs and feet and two large pincers of the sand scorpion pierced by the heavy sword and long knife were visibly dark brown to the naked eye, and they were turned into stone by Pi Chunsheng with "petrification".

At this moment, the skin on Wu Qi's whole body erupted with a dense ** electric sensation, and he shouted to Xiao Kui, "Watch out for the surroundings", and in the next second, countless sand fountains erupted from the sand in all directions!

10, 20, 30...... Wu Qi only felt infiltrated when he heard the continuous sound of drilling through the sand, dozens or even hundreds of sand scorpions with a volume of half an adult size drilled out of the sand, filling every inch of sand as far as the eyes of the three of them, and surrounded them and the investigation vehicle.

Where the sand scorpion swarm haunts, there must be a king sand scorpion leader! Wu Qi had a strong premonition in his heart, and he stared at the back of the sand scorpion army that surrounded them, where the sand suddenly sunken down, and a giant king sand scorpion, which was half a heavy battlefield vehicle, separated and sand swirled to the ground.

That is the king sand scorpion who commands this sand scorpion army with more than 100 soldiers!

Wu Qi's eyes flashed with a strange light like a needlepoint. The carapace of the king sand scorpion in front of him is still sand yellow, obviously not in a state of resurrection, but it is not guaranteed that its blood also contains a strange "resurrection virus".

"Why are you guys still stunned! Get in the car! Yue Zhanfei shouted.

"Let's go!" Xiao Kui knew that his ability could not fight against the sand scorpion army and Wang Sand Scorpion who surrounded the investigation vehicle, so he sliced through the body of the petrified sand scorpion with a sword, grabbed Pi Chunsheng's wrist and ran towards the car door.

Xiao Kui and Pi Chunsheng had just taken two steps, and when they turned around, they found that Wu Qi was still standing in place.

"Wu Qi!"

Wu Qi pressed the headset with his left hand, and put the knife in front of him with his right hand. He spread his slender legs and launched himself towards the Sand Scorpion Legion with a lunge!

"Krees, I'll leave the rear to you." Wu Qi said lightly to the headset that connected to the carriage broadcasting.

The king sand scorpion entrenched at the back of the sand scorpion army spit out an insect-like command, and more than 100 second-order sand scorpions were like loose machines, turning from static to moving, and rushed to the investigation vehicle in the center of the encirclement!

A part of the torrent of sand scorpions protruded from the legion, concentrating on encircling Wu Qi, who was advancing instead of retreating! In their scarlet insect eyes, this human simply didn't know the height of the sky, and dared to challenge their army of hundreds of insects alone!

Those obsidian-like eyes burst out with a fierce light! At this moment, Wu Qi unleashed all the atavistic power hidden in the depths of the genetic fragments, and the black scales like a wave surfaced from the skin, and between the combat uniform and the skin, forming a pair of armor wrapped around the upper body! A circle of black scales wrapped around Wu Qi's neck and rushed up to its chin, and the center of his eyebrows and forehead cracked all the way, revealing a row of seven scales.

As soon as Wu Qi made a move, he was 100% atavistic! He stepped like lightning, straight like a ghost swallow, flew and stepped on the head of a sand scorpion, the power was so great that he directly crushed his entire head, and used his corpse as a springboard to accelerate towards the king sand scorpion at the back of the sand scorpion army. The three-foot long knife in his hand automatically separated hundreds of silver light fragments, which gathered in front of and on both sides of him in the shape of arrows, slashing through all the scorpion tail stingers that approached.

Wu Qi's series of aggressive actions were all completed in one second, and when he shouted the word "Kress" earlier, the sunroof of the investigation vehicle was slammed open; Krees climbed out of the sunroof and strode towards the rear of the investigation vehicle, and then jumped into the air, turning 180 degrees back and forth in the air.

The closest and fastest pioneer in the Sand Scorpion Legion was only 1 meter away from Krees, and when it saw Krees jump out of the car and deliver it to the door, it subconsciously stretched out its stinger and stabbed Krees's back wide open. Krees's right hand had been raised into the air, and there was a cross-cut blood mark lying in the center of his palm, and several round beads of blood were thrown into the sky by him, and a snow-white aurora erupted in an instant!

The snow-white chain of energy lightning suddenly expanded in the air, spewing out a powerful cold air flow in all directions!

The ice-blue Frost Giant suddenly broke into the gap in the yellow sand of the sky, spreading out the extremely cold realm where the air was about to freeze. The Frost Giant was 15 meters tall and had no body parts below the waist, and at this moment the Frost Giant was bent forward at the waist, and its two thick arms were lying vertically on both sides of the research vehicle, separating all the sand scorpion swarms that attacked the research vehicle from the two arms and the extremely cold field.

When the Extreme Cold Domain first expanded, the sand scorpion corps of the 3 percent of the Sand Scorpion Legion was frozen in place, and as soon as the sand scorpion that followed the vanguard charge rushed into the Extreme Cold Domain, its limbs were quickly stained with frost marks, and they couldn't move every few meters they rushed close, becoming insect ice sculptures.

The temperature in the outer area of the extremely cold field is as low as minus 100 degrees, but the temperature in the inner circle where the investigation car is located is not so low, at best minus twenty or thirty degrees; While Krees transforms into a Frost Giant, the Little Red Fox activates an ability that transforms into a moving orange-red furnace that provides heat to the entire carriage and counteracts the low temperatures of the outside world.

The Frost Giant slowly lifted its upper body, and a pair of bright golden eyes coldly glanced at the remaining sand scorpion swarms that had not yet turned into ice sculptures. In the next second, the frost giant swung his arm more than 7 meters long and swept around, and the ice sculptures that were swept by the arm were shattered into ice slag, and some of the sand scorpions could not escape and were swept to death together, and the sand scorpion army was only forty percent of the soldiers left in a blink of an eye.

This round of arm sweeps was not half as fast as Krees' first transformation into the Frost Giant, and it was even slightly bulky. There is no way around it, as most of the "Blood of the Frost King" depends on moisture in the air. The current environment is extremely dry, and Krees has done everything he can to transform into a 15-meter-tall half-body frost giant.

Click, click, crack appeared coldly on the frost giant's arms. Hidden inside the Frost Giant, with his eyes connected to the Golden Eye's vision, Krees glanced down at the Frost Giant's cracked arms, lowered his arms again, and pressed his palms against the frozen sandy surface.

The Frost Giants no longer attacked, and only maintained the Extreme Cold Realm to protect the people in the survey vehicle beneath them. Even if this Frost Giant's body is not good due to the lack of moisture in the environment, it is enough to defend and kill the second-order sand scorpion swarm.

Ahead, Wu Qi used one sand scorpion after another as a springboard to quickly approach the king sand scorpion behind the sand scorpion army, and the long knife fragments around him were launched in unison at a certain moment, piercing and tearing the last rows of sand scorpions apart.

He finally overcame the obstacle of the Sand Scorpion Legion and broke into the attack range of the King Sand Scorpion!
