Chapter 411: Tinder Source Gauntlet
After confirming the role of the keystone, Qiao Lu was temporarily relieved, at least the crisis on the Wandering Earth side was temporarily resolved.
"Are the investigation team ready to go to Char?" Qiao Lu continued to ask.
Ding Yi nodded and replied, "The Ten Thousand Years Wind and Snow is on standby, just waiting for you to set off with the Soul Gem." ”
After the loss of the Queen of Blades, the swarm also fell into a situation where the dragons were leaderless, and the Mother of Worms left behind by the Queen of Blades was not enough to control the entire swarm, and only allowed the swarm to split into multiple factions to fight their own battles.
Now is a good opportunity to bring the insect under his command, and of course Qiao Lu will not miss it.
"Well, let's get off as soon as possible."
The surviving worm mothers should be frantically expanding their power and trying to establish independent insect factions, and when they are full-fledged, it will not be so easy to find the ownerless worms.
Qiao Lu immediately entered the United Government Headquarters, preparing to take the Mind Gem to Char to find a way to take over a hive and let the Wandering Earth also intervene in this large-scale civil war to unify the swarm.
If you can finally control the entire swarm, you will undoubtedly be able to raise the combat effectiveness of the Wandering Earth to a higher level!
For this reason, the coalition government has already made a plan, and as soon as it defeats the Queen of Blades, it will immediately order the investigation team to go to Char, ready to try to use the power of the Mind Gem to control the swarm.
As the person with the highest level of psionic energy on the wandering earth at present, Qiao Lu should be the best person to carry out this plan.
At the same time, Qiao Lu is also the permanent representative of the minority race of the Wandering Earth, and in terms of the scope of his duties, he should also be responsible for taking charge of the alien insects accepted by the Wandering Earth as a new minority race, and it is reasonable for him to do it.
So Qiao Lu took the Tinder Source inlaid with two Infinity Stones and took the Ten Thousand Years Wind and Snow to the main nest planet of the Zerg-Char.
Liu Peiqiang, as always, walked with Qiao Lu as a member of the Wandering Earth Investigation Team, and he didn't even have time to reunite with Liu Qi and Han Duoduo.
"Is that good?" Qiao Lu asked him, "Liu Qi seems to have also participated in the battle as a logistics officer, so it's better for you to go back and see him first." ”
"He's not a kid who still needs someone to take care of." Liu Peiqiang replied:
"And I asked, he and Duoduo are safe."
Qiao Lu persuaded him: "After going through so many things, Liu Qi is probably able to understand you a little." After this operation, let's talk to him again. ”
"Maybe." Liu Peiqiang sighed.
In the middle of the words, the 10,000-year-old Blizzard had already folded over Char's orbit. It's a red planet with an entire surface that seems to be burning, covered with erupting craters and lava flowing like rivers, and it's a living hell.
However, even the planet with such a harsh environment has now become the main nest of the alien insects, and the insect tunnels cover 40% of the surface of the entire planet, and the orbital platform left by the human colonists in the past has also become the habitat and hatching nest of the alien insects in the orbit of the planet.
The harsh natural environment and the large number of insect nests have made Charr a veritable gate to hell in the mouth of humans, and it is usually a destination from which there is no return.
It's just that this time, Qiao Lu and the others arrived, but they were not warmly welcomed by the insect swarm from Char, and only a few flying dragons flew near the Ten Thousand Years Wind and Snow, but they were not interested in this human warship.
Captain Levsenko couldn't help but ask: "What's going on?" Have they switched to vegetarianism? ”
Qiao Lu replied, "Without the Queen of Blades, most of the insects would be out of control, and those are probably wyverns that have not yet belonged to a certain insect mother, and now they are just simple wild animals. As long as we don't take the initiative to provoke it, they won't attack us so unfamiliarly. ”
If it weren't for the control of the hive mind, the Wyvern wouldn't have taken the initiative to launch a suicidal attack, which was completely against biological instinct.
Now that the insect mother on Char is also taking care of killing each other, there is no time to care about the human frigate of the Ten Thousand Years Wind and Snow, so Qiao Lu and his party easily landed on Char and began to look for the insect nest that has not yet been controlled by the insect mother, and then become a new alien insect force.
By scanning the orbit of the 10,000-year-old Blizzard, Qiao Lu quickly locked on a hive that was disorganized, and most of the worker bees were not working properly.
Such a hive has obviously not been controlled by any insect mother, which can be used as a starting point for Qiao Lu to control the insect swarm.
When Qiao Lu and his party came to the vicinity of this hive, the insects inside still did not respond, as if they were suddenly disconnected in the game, waiting for the player to reconnect.
It's just that these insects obviously can't wait for the Queen of Blades to come back and reconnect, and Qiao Lu will be their new master and take over this Zerg base.
In the process of entering the hive, a member of the investigation team accidentally disturbed a jumping worm, and the ferocious little creature immediately rushed up with its teeth and claws, following its instinct to attack the humans who disturbed it.
Liu Peiqiang immediately raised his gun and was about to kill the jumping insect, but Qiao Lu stretched out his hand to stop him, and at the same time emitted a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation, glaring at the jumping insect fiercely.
Sure enough, after feeling the unusual aura on Qiao Lu's body, the jumping worm suddenly stopped, and did not dare to pounce directly, but just kept his distance like a watchdog, and let out a low threatening cry from a distance.
"Looks like they're scared too." Liu Peiqiang put down the gun and said.
Qiao Lu corrected: "It's not fear, it's just a biological instinct implanted in their genes, and before receiving a new order, the insect will try to protect itself as much as possible, so that it can use its life in a more suitable place." ”
Now that it has been confirmed that the hive is not under the control of any worm mother, Qiao Lu can move on to the next step.
He took out the Tinder Source inlaid with two Infinity Stones, and used the Rubik's Cube-like mechanical cube to levitate it in the palm of his hand using psionic energy, and caused it to change its form like a Transformer.
In the blink of an eye, the source of fire turned into a glove, gently covering Qiao Lu's hand.
The source of the fire after the mechanical transformation is like a silver infinity gauntlet, and the space gem and the mind gem are inlaid on the glove, helping Qiao Lu to exert the power of these two infinity stones.
"Sure enough, it's still easier to use like this."
Qiao Lu took on the Tinder Source Glove and moved his fingers and said, since Tony of Endgame can use the steel suit material to create a replacement for the Infinity Gauntlet, then it is even more difficult for him to use the Tinder Source to transform into the Infinity Gauntlet.
Next, it's time to experiment with the power of the Mind Gem with this Tinder Source Glove!
