Chapter 281: Parasitism
Spit and complain, you still have to do business, switch your attention back to the system space, convert the Zerg base, hatch a worker bee, and press the shortcut key. The worker bees plunged into the ground, and a mass of sarcoma wriggled on the moss.
About a few seconds later, the construction of the stinging snake nest was completed, looking at the five hook sickles raised high, and a hideous building with a large intestine like mouthparts below, Tang Fang smiled slightly, and then selected a larva next to the wormhole, pressed the hotkey, and the option to hatch the stinging snake in the menu bar on the right was highlighted.
The stinging snake is a kind of alien insect unit generated by the caterpillar-shaped herbivorous inert insect after being transformed by the master, and its evolutionary map has produced a strict zhòng distortion on the basis of the herbivorous inert inertia, and the originally docile and harmless creature has since become a vicious killer, and has been given the name "stinging snake". Possessing extremely strong musculature (4,000 muscles compared to 629 for humans), the Stinging Snake is capable of shooting through 2 cm thick steel plates at an astonishing rate, even at the farthest range.
With the exception of the Bug Queen, the Stinging Snake is the Zerg's primary anti-aircraft attack unit, and the muzzle velocity of the Spine Needle is higher than that of the metal spike shot by the C-14 Imperator.
Next, the Don side moved the cursor to the "Stinging Snake" option, which cost 100 crystals, 50 gas, and occupied 2 people. The cost of resources in the game is comparable.
After that, he clicked on the Stinging Snake's Nest, and the menu on the right appeared two options: "Evolve Deep Groove Spine" and "Evolve Tendon Expansion". The cost of research is also 10 times that of the game, at 1500 crystals and 1500 gas.
If the claws of cockroaches digging into the ground belong to the left side of the door. The deep groove spine of the stinging snake is the right way among insects. As a ranged output unit, it increases range. It is conceivable how high the overall combat effectiveness will be enhanced.
Tendon augmentation is used to increase the speed at which the stinging snake moves outside the blanket. Make them more flexible and fast in battle.
Considering that there are Viking fighters, Wyverns, incubators, and the anti-air force is not weak, he is not in a hurry to upgrade the "Deep Groove Spine Thorn", but skillfully selects a larva and presses the production hotkey of the Stinging Snake.
When the larvae transform into eggs and hatch is halfway through. Suddenly, Tang Fang felt that someone was patting him on the back, and at the same time. Grant's somewhat anxious voice sounded in his ears: "Tang Fang, wake up, wake up, wake up......"
"Huh?" With a casual promise, he quickly withdrew his mind from the system space, raised his eyes, and saw a gray shadow rushing from a distance, and the fanatic next to him blocked forward, and the gray shadow turned in the air and swam to the side.
It wasn't until this time that Tang Fang saw it clearly. The gray shadow was a strange species at all, and from a distance, the flesh and skin tissue on the surface kept wriggling, and small granulations and vesicles appeared from time to time. It makes people's scalp tingle. Its lower body has many curved flagella, and it is able to adjust a blue fluorescent-like ejecta to change its flight trajectory, somewhat similar to the centipede monster encountered in the underground of Planet 5.
Take advantage of the moment when the rotten meat is cruising away. Tang Fang looked around and found that there was only this one in front of him. Take another look at the many glass containers on either side. It was found that all but the vessel in which the six slugs were sealed had not been opened.
"Huh? What the hell is Faraday doing? He couldn't help but frown. Judging from the scene just now, the slug must have been a weapon released by Faraday to snipe at himself, but unfortunately, not only did it not succeed, but it was destroyed on the spot by the ghost and the fanatics.
He thought that he would send more slugs to attack the three of them, but he didn't expect that with only such a mess of rotten meat, even if it could fly, it would never be safe and sound under the attack of a dozen fanatics and ghosts. Not to mention hurting three people.
Just as he thought, the "rotten meat" flew and swung past, but he never found the opportunity to attack, like a black boar that had lost its way and bumped back and forth, wandering around and around the glassware around it.
Tang Fang was not in the mood to waste time with it here, he still had something to do, and sent a "clean-up" order to the 24 fanatics, beckoned Grant and Bai Hao, and walked forward.
A fanatic was like a tiger out of the mountain, his figure was as fast as the wind, as fast as lightning, and a pair of psionic blades on his wrist were like two ghostly flames, and the scorching air between the swings was slightly deformed, refracting a circle of colorful halos.
The glass containers on both sides of the "Boom, Boom......" shattered, and the physiological solution poured out, barely reaching the heels. The three of Tang Fang walked towards the exit of the room step by step, while the fanatic sent the tranquil blade of tranquil erbium into the deformed creatures in the vessel.
Colorful biological fluids flowed all over the ground along with the physiological solution, and the rotten flesh that roamed between the fanatic's attacks gradually lost cover and became irritable.
Perhaps it was intelligent enough to injure the three of them under the protection of a skilled fanatic, and in the end, after letting out a low "cluck" roar, it stabbed down, its tentacles spreading and possessing a dying slug.
"Old ...... Boss, you're ...... Take a look. Bai Hao walked at the end and kept an eye on what happened later.
When the rotten flesh entangled the slugs and turned into a pulp and spread, the next scene made his pupils widen instantly.
Hearing the exclamation, Tang Fang and Grant looked back, and at the end of their sight, the slug, who should have survived until death, stood up like that.
"Live...... Lived? Grant understood for a moment that he couldn't. Tang Fang, on the other hand, squinted his eyes and recalled the scene that happened to Roy.
Today's slugs are no longer the same slugs they used to be, the milky white soft flesh on its body is wrapped in a gray-black slurry, which gradually melts and disappears, and the slug's bloated body is getting smaller and smaller, as if it has been devoured by rotten meat.
The change lasted for more than 20 seconds, until the slugs went from bloated to slim, from fat to lean, and the devouring stopped.
"Ka...... Click...... A tooth-s......queezing sound came, and the gray-black pulp slowly contracted and seeped into the skin, and the slug's originally tender chest suddenly appeared a metallic white, and then slowly expanded and protruded, connecting into a rib structure. Like a skeleton, it encloses a wriggling pile of rotten black flesh.
At the same time, there are also three pairs of hook sickles that have been cut off on both sides of the body. There was not a drop, and the bone structure that was dripping reddish-brown body fluid spewed out a mass of blood-red sarcoma. Then, the second regiment, the third regiment......
The sarcomas are more and more numerous, getting longer and longer, until they reach about a meter, then twisted, squeezed, taut, and slowly ossified, and finally become a silvery-white bony arm like a subcostal bone carapace.
"Bang." There was a muffled sound, and the slug's seemingly smaller body fell to its stomach. The four sharp claws of the front of the bony arm left more than a dozen deep planing marks on the solid marble floor.
The next thing that changed was the slug's head, the gray-black slurry almost melted most of its head, and as the slurry slowly faded like a falling tide, it dived under the skin, and a silvery-white, octagonal-like, openable bone mouthpart appeared in front of the three of them.
The surface of the eight follicles of the bony mouthparts is jagged and flashing with a terrifying cold light, and at a glance it is not a good stubble. Presumably, if you lose a thigh bone, a minute is the life of two halves of "quack".
At this point, the changes have not stopped, and the slug's dusty tail is raised high. The slender flagella are tangled together and become tighter and tighter, and the gray-black pulp flows out from the roots. The blink coats the surface of the flagella.
"Quack, quack, quack......" The sound of the bone joint vibrating, and the slug's originally intact tail was divided into more than a dozen long bone needles. Volleys flew in the air, whipping the ground from time to time. Throw up a puff of sand and rubble.
The current slugs are no longer worthy of their name, the original soft body tissues are all covered with silver-white bone armor, the sickle arm has become a bone arm, and the flagellar tail has become a bone needle.
Tang Fang and the three of them looked at the "bone worm" in front of them in a daze, and were stunned for a while. The slugs were parasitized by the rotten flesh, and not only came back to life, but also turned into the ugly posture they are now.
"Quack quack......" The mouthparts of the bone worm trembled, and the bone joints exploded again and again, and then one of them flew and jumped directly into the air, rushing towards the three of them like a fierce tiger.
Silver-white across the sky, maliciously attacking the face, Tang Fang was the first to come back to his senses, and with a movement of his mind, the two fanatics bounced, and the spiritual energy blades of their arms crossed into a cross, slashing towards the body of the bone worm.
Perhaps it was the fear of the psionic blade, the bone worm's body was biased, a tail needle was inserted into the ground and pulled with force, dodging the pincer of the two fanatics, and the other tail needles stabbed forward violently, and the scaly bone joints came out with a crisp sound of "Titica", and the bone needles that were originally more than 2 meters long actually skyrocketed, flexibly interspersed along the gap, and went straight to the door of the three people.
A little silver light shot out, Tang Fang didn't expect the bone worm's attack to be so tricky, the bone needle was still twisted and turned, and in a hurry, he hurriedly pulled Grant back, and the ghost who was in a stealth state killed from the side, calculated the attack trajectory of the bone needle, and swiped the ghost energy blade in his hand forward.
According to common sense, the bone needle should have been broken in response, but what the three of them didn't expect was that it turned a temporary corner, narrowly avoided the ghost energy blade, and continued to stab towards the Tang side of the door with its pointed tip.
Seeing that there was no protection ahead, Tang Fang took a deep breath, and the pupils flashed in his eyes. There is no doubt that the rotten flesh possessed by the slugs has intelligence, and it is not low, and it knows the truth that the thief captures the king first.
It's just that it underestimated the king in front of it. The king is not a king who embraces the left and right on the throne, but a king who holds a long sword and looks at the blood moon from afar.
A ball of thunder light emerged in his right hand, and a blue rainbow with indistinguishable vision flashed, but the bone needle that was supposed to pierce Tang Fangmen's door was blocked halfway, like a poisonous snake that was clamped down on seven inches, and could only struggle and twist.
"Quack quack...... There was a hissing of the bone worm behind him, no matter how hard it used and how it struggled, the hand that caught the tail needle did not move at all, as steady as Taiyue.
The first blow failed, and the second blow came, and another bone needle passed through the gap and appeared in the dead corner of Tang Fang's line of sight.
Bai Hao had just recovered from the shock, and couldn't help but shout: "Boss, be careful behind you!" ”
In fact, he didn't need to remind him, Tang Fang had already noticed the tail needle that came suddenly behind him, stepped on the ground and rotated sideways, stretched his left hand back, grabbed it, and with a "snap", the second bone needle was caught by him in the palm of his hand.
Obviously, the bone worm was also stunned by this scene, and forgot to continue to attack. At this moment, Ghost did a volleyflip, and the ghost energy blade in his hand slashed through the air, and with a "bang", the bone needle in Tang Fang's right hand was split in two.
"Gah!" The eight follicles of the bone worm opened and closed for a while, making a sound similar to a scream, and the bone needle that was caught by Tang Fang in his left hand moved for a while, the scales opened, and a stream of gray-black mucus flowed out. flocked to Tang Fang's wrist.
As can be seen from the process of parasitizing slugs from rotten flesh, gray-black mucus is by no means a good thing. Tang Fang snorted coldly, his five fingers tightened. A flash of lightning burst from the shoulder armor, like a thunder snake, and it flew down, exploding into a fiery ball of electric light at the wrist.
"Quack!" I only heard an even more terrible scream behind me, and those fine electric rays were like countless ultra-high-frequency oscillating knives, and they were stunned to cut out countless wounds with a bone needle, and then Tang Fang held it hard, and with a "snap", it shattered into bone powder all over the ground.
As for those gray-black slimes. It loses its vitality under the action of electric current, and in the blink of an eye, it becomes a puddle of dead mud on the ground.
Bai Hao was stunned in the back, originally he wanted to go up to help the boss, but just as he was about to move, he was stopped by Grant. At first he wondered why Grant didn't let him go up to help, but when he saw this, he finally understood.
I thought that the boss was the same as Aros and the others, but he was just skilled, but he didn't expect to have such ability. Luckily, he was stopped by Grant. Otherwise, he would be dragging his feet when he went up.
"Whoosh, whoosh." Two tail needles were broken one after another, and the bone worms were ferocious. At the same time as the half-cut tail was retracted, gray-black bulges gushed out of the bone tube on the broken section, and it took a blink of an eye. A new bone needle is formed.
"Will it regenerate?" Tang Fang frowned, and looked down at the cell tissue structure that had been destroyed by the high-frequency pulse. Inactivated gray-black mucus, striding towards the bone worm in front of him.
Fanatics and Ghosts retreated to both sides. Protect Grant and Bai Hao.
"What's the boss going to do?" Seeing him walking farther and farther, Bai Hao asked worriedly.
Grant slung the gun over his shoulder and replied, "Heads-up." ”
"Heads-up?" Bai Hao's face changed: "That guy is not a good stubble at first glance, with the boss alone, how dangerous it is." No, I'm going to help. ”
"Come back." Grant grabbed him and pointed at the lifeless gray-black slime on the ground: "What do you think will happen if you get that thing on your body?" ”
Bai Hao glanced up at the bone worm, remembering the scene of the corpse transformation just now, he couldn't help but shudder, and the steps he took were retracted.
Seeing Tang Fang striding over, the bone worm crouched down, the follicles trembled, and made a "gurgling" sound, as if provocative, as if mocking the ignorance of the creature in front of him.
If those gold-armored warriors swarmed up, it would only have the life of fleeing in the wilderness, who would have thought that the guy who seemed to be the leader would actually choose to fight alone, with a mere human body, and dare to fight against it full of weapons, which is no less than seeking his own death.
The bone worm took the lead, the sharp bone claws slapped on the ground, and with the help of the reaction force, the silver-white body was like a streamer, carrying a dignified and ferocious, boundless murderous aura, and rushed straight towards Tang Fang.
It was going to crush the head of the obscure human in front of him, tear his body apart, make him weep bitterly, make him wail.
The speed of the bone worm was as fast as the wind, but Tang Fang was as fast as lightning, when the silver white swooped down, his body was sideways, his feet moved, and a side slide, letting the bone worm fly by, the C-14 piercing hand in his hand was raised, and with a "click" sound, the metal nail with the slightest lightning pierced the bone armor, and sank deep into the gray-black visceral tissue.
"Quack quack......" There was another tooth-sour sound, the bone worm landed on the ground with a sharp claw, twisted its waist with the momentum, and flicked its tail like a lion and tiger, and more than a dozen bone needles opened their teeth and claws, shooting out towards Tang Fang.
......The electric light between the metal nails was connected, and the twisted arc jumped into a string, emitting a sharp sonic boom, and the eight bone needles in the front fell into the power grid, making a crackling sound under the cutting of the fine electric mang.
Several other bone needles detoured from both sides, from top to bottom, and fell towards Tang Fang's body.
The C-14 piercing flashlight shimmered, and with Tang Fang's roar, the violently beating arc condensed into a green rainbow sword at the muzzle. Tang Fang waved his right hand, and the green rainbow was like a treasure knife that sharpened iron like clay, and with a "boom", he directly cut off the three bone needles.
The broken bone needle shook again and again, and a large stream of gray-black slime erupted from the bone tube, and a few drops splashed on the arm armor of the power armor, and with a "bang", a yellow spot corroded.
The slime was like a living thing, drilling down the small hole into the power armor, and at that moment, the high-frequency pulse current was like a thundercloud storm that erupted, instantly spreading throughout the left arm, and curling in front of the wrist in the shape of an electric axe.
The gray-black slime twisted for a while, and then Tang Fang waved his arm, "Click." "Fall to the ground and throw out a spot.
"This ...... This ......" Behind Bai Hao looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, looked down at his hands, moved his wrists, and couldn't help but feel a little strange, his own Ma Runjia could only block a bullet at most, and tie the stimulant, how did it get into the hands of the boss, it was as if it was magically made out of high-frequency electromagnetic pulses, and it could also control them to condense into sharp blades.
"I know what you're thinking." Grant smiled angrily: "That kind of ability, only he has." ”
Bai Hao blinked, and was about to ask why, when suddenly, Grant pounced and rolled on the ground holding him: "Be careful." ”
Be careful of what? The boy was shocked.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh." The flames flashed, and one after another smoke dragons quickly swept past the place where the two of them were standing.
"Enemy attack?" After landing, Bai Hao turned his head to look, the door on the other side of the passage opened at some point, and three defense planes flashed out of the darkness, and the cluster rockets under his arms and the Green cannon fired at the same time, and the bullets raged like a torrential rain.
"Boom, boom." Eight cluster rockets missed, falling to the ground and exploding into a ball of fire. The marble floor was blown to pieces, and rubble and stone powder flew all over the sky. Then there were the bullets fired from the Grimm cannon, from left to right, strafing a row of light rain. (To be continued......)
