A few people turn and turn through the winding caverns, accompanied only by the darkness that envelops them all. Due to the distance from the front line of the confrontation, the swarm did not arrange too many patrol forces, and the occasional encounter with a few xenomorphs on the way was also sensed by the omniscient eye at a long distance. With enough time to prepare, it is easy for a few people to find a suitable place to hide from them.

Fu Jingzhu, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, and the rest of the people immediately became nervous, and every time Horus, who had an omniscient eye, made this move, it represented a narrow encounter with the aliens.

Unexpectedly, Fu was shocked to control Horus to bend down and grab a large black object from the ground, which seemed to be being studied.

"Why don't you leave?"

Finding that it was not about to encounter xenomorphs, Chang Shengshi asked in a low voice.

"My mecha Horus has the ability to detect all signs of life within a certain radius. Now it tells me that the thing in my hand is part of some kind of living being, and that its vitality has been rapidly draining since I separated it from the subject. ”

After Fu Jingzhu finished speaking, he turned on the mecha's own lighting system, and all kinds of lights installed on the mecha were turned on at the same time. Under the reflection of the light, everyone could clearly see that what he was holding in his hand was a piece of fungus coat that had shrunk into a ball, and under his feet was a dense fungus blanket spreading from a distant corner, and the dense brown mycelium on it was dancing without wind.

"What are these?"

Chang Shengshi controlled the mecha crouched down and carefully examined this strange thing that had never appeared in the report

"We don't know. We've never advanced this far because of the lack of supplies, and I just discovered theirs because of the strange touch on my feet."

Fu Jingzhu put the shrunken fungus suit in his hand into the storage space of the mecha, and looked at the four walls of the cave again.

With him as the dividing line, the fungus blanket covered all the surface of the cavern without leaving a single gap, and how to pass through them became a difficult problem before them.

Just go straight to it? Looking at the soft appearance of this fungus blanket, it should not cause any hard damage to the armor, and the isolation of the mecha from the outside world also ensures that the pilot will not be attacked by harmful substances. The only concern is that these microbes are sapient, and it would be too unjust if their whereabouts were caught by the swarm because of this.

"I don't think these things are too intelligent even if they are intelligent, as long as we don't touch them, they shouldn't have any effect."

The well-informed Chang Shengshi made his own judgment. These fungus blankets don't know where they extend from that place, it can be said to be boundless, like such a large piece of things, if it is a creature with intelligence, it will consume a lot of resources, in the current environment of extremely fierce competition for survival, it is undoubtedly self-defeating to evolve such a large and bloated function, he prefers that these things are just similar to the result of unconscious reproduction of single cells.

"I think you're right"

Fu Jingzhu watched the large fungus blanket that was torn by himself under his feet slowly refilling, and recognized Chang Shengshi's judgment.

The Horus wings he controlled, the anti-gravity system on it had been activated, and the entire mecha had floated in the air under the control of the magnetic field

"Fortunately, this cave is big enough for Anubis and I to float and transport you directly there."

Johnny on the side also understood, and also floated the mecha into the air and took the Sobek piloted by Qi Xiang, and slowly followed Fu Jingzhu, who was flying low-altitude with the raider.

Flying around the corner of the cave and a little further, the terrain suddenly cleared up, and in front of them was a high dome and a huge sinkhole. The strange fungus carpet stretched from the bottom of the pit to all sides, and the hyphae became denser the closer to the center of the pit.

Fu Jingzhu stopped again

"What did you find?"

Chang Shengshi knew that Horus must have discovered something unusual through the omniscient eye

"We seem to have found a hatchery for the swarm"

It took a long time for Fu to reply, which showed how shocked he was at what he saw

At the bottom of the pit was a blood-red hill of flesh, which looked like it had been peeled off its outer skin and was full of bucket-sized holes, and as Roshan twisted and wriggled, worms like magnified earthworms were squeezed out of the holes and fell onto the soft fungus blanket. The ignorant larvae that landed in an unfamiliar environment stood in place for a while, and soon obeyed their survival instincts and nibbled on the fungus blanket underground. On the other side, not far from Roshan, countless gray-white meat cocoons stood on the fungus carpet, and Fu Jingzhu could only judge from the size of the meat cocoons that the ones hatched inside were roughly what kind of Zerg units were hatched.

The evolution of the rock leaf insect swarm is actually such a horrific way! They don't evolve genes through individual inheritance, but through specific training, they evolve specific classes!

This method of inheritance is very similar to the means of the giant clan to evolve warriors in batches through potential potions, could it be said that the rock leaf insect swarm is no longer a simple evolutionary race but has evolved into another civilization? This discovery is amazing! If the assumption is true, humanity will face an advanced civilization that is not inferior to itself in any respect, at least not yet yet skilled in the means of mass catalytic evolution.

Fu turned out the lights and landed on the fungus carpet, and gestured to the others to be careful of their surroundings and follow his own gestures.

After finding a relatively hidden location, Fu Jingzhu informed the other members of his astonishing discovery.

"So, the previous battles of the swarm didn't show their strength at all, they just created the illusion that they weren't strong and that we could defeat them with just one blow, and then cut off our retreat and annihilate us in one fell swoop when we went out? No, they are still fighting the idea of the Holy Seed, and their forbearance and arrangement for the past hundred years are aimed at the Styx! ”

Fu Jingzhu coherent everything and came up with a terrible guess that was closest to the truth

"We have to inform everyone about this!"

Chang Shengshi had already made a judgment based on the situation on the scene, there would definitely not be only one swarm like this, because they had not infiltrated the hinterland of the Zerg at all, and strictly speaking, it could only be regarded as a periphery. Then the overall strength of the swarm can only be described as unfathomable, and even if they have the confidence that they can break the outer defense of the Styx, they will design a trap for decades to lure and annihilate the defense forces on the Styx, and reduce the difficulty of breaking through the outer wall of the defense and infiltrating the battleship to seize the Holy Seed.

It is no wonder that Antarctica has not evolved a decent race for so long, and with such a powerful civilization stationed here, all the forces that may threaten them must be wiped out.

It is conceivable that if the human Antarctic Corps crashed headlong into it and destroyed their plans and arrangements for decades, how angry the swarm would be, and it is estimated that few of the human corps that have been cut off from the back road will come back alive!

Chang Shengshi immediately connected to the communication of the headquarters

"Immediately cancel the general attack plan the day after tomorrow, everything we see now is a trap set for us by the swarm!"

"What's the situation? Can you elaborate on that? ”

"What did you find?"

Hearing Chang Shengshi's return, the command center immediately became noisy

"We're ......"

A palpitating wave of fluctuation surged in, interrupting Chang Shengshi's communication

"S...... ......"

All that was left in the channel was electronic noise, and the communication was disrupted!

Sure enough, it's a trap! There is no problem with low-power short-range communication, but once a high-power long-range communication swarm is dispatched, it immediately detects and implements interference. This has never happened before, and this swarm has multiple units of tactical support, far more powerful than the average evolutionary race!

"Fluff...... Flutter ......"

In the perception of the omniscient eye, the dormant flesh cocoons began to tremble, and the xenomorphs bred inside were constantly hitting the walls of the cocoon in an attempt to break out.
