In Xue Qiong's perception, that direction had been filled with dozens of energy reactions, large and small, and several of them were very strong, visually inspecting those high-level troops of the Zerg. And he could only feel the energy, so he couldn't tell how many jumping worms there were that didn't emit energy...

"Vote." Xue Qiong lit a cigarette, "Shall we withdraw from the city first, or will we move on to the next point?" By the way, my opinion is that although our existing crystals can support more than a day of mental shielding, it is not a long-term solution, and if we lose the spiritual shielding, even if we hide in the wilderness where there is nothing, we will be easily found by insects... So I'm in favor of continuing to look in the city. ”

Of course, Xiao Yun and Mike unconditionally supported Xue Qiong's decision, while the bald head frowned and asked: "Is it possible to find an easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain in the wild, if I, Lei Kai and Du Zhenhuan resist it together..."

Xue Qiong shook his head, "Don't forget, this plot world is a limit of fifteen thousand. ”

His meaning is very simple, with the strength of the reincarnations present who can only cope with the difficulty benchmark nine at most, in this plot world with a difficulty benchmark of fifteen, although it is said that it is possible to survive if you take down the skill, if you dare to fight head-on with the killing force sent by the Zerg, it is simply a pure act of seeking death.

The bald head nodded in support of Xue Qiong's decision, and then Du Zhenhuan also expressed his opinion firmly. After he half-broke the Goliath mech for no apparent reason, his desire to find another mech to drive was very strong.

In this case, Nangong You, a long-range perception character who does not have strong self-protection ability after losing her comrades-in-arms, cannot be separated from the large army, so she had to agree to the second choice, as for Lei Kai, he also followed Nangong You unconditionally.

Kerrigan thought for a moment and said, "The next target is a bit far away, and since the current one... The shielded energy is also guaranteed, and I think we can take a break for a while. ”

Xue Qiong stomped on her somewhat sore feet, "Agreed." ”

Unlike New Gatesburg, the city of New Detroit, although it was also badly damaged, was mainly concentrated in industrial and military facilities, and civilian buildings were largely undamaged, although the people inside had been killed and eaten by bugs...

This time, the temporary hideout chosen by everyone was a half-collapsed commercial office building. The western part of the rectangular seven-story building has been completely reduced to rubble, but miraculously half of it is still intact...

After a simple meal, everyone hurried to rest, and of course there would still be people taking turns keeping vigil... And the first class is Xue Qiong and Mike.

Everyone could see that Xue Qiong intended to make this arrangement, and of course no one would have an opinion. Because the two of them obviously want to talk about something that can only be known to the two of them, and no matter what they want to talk about, there is a high probability that Mike will become an important combat force on the side of the reincarnation more thoroughly in the future, and it will become more reliable, which is consistent with everyone's interests, so it is impossible for anyone to say anything uninterestingly.

Xiao Yun took out a coffin directly from the storage space and lay down in it. Although physiologically speaking, she has a vampire physique, and as an undead creature, she doesn't need to sleep, but first, she must recover her mental state, and secondly, if she sleeps in a coffin, it will also have some benefits for the vampire's magic recovery, and it can also speed up the recovery of some minor injuries on her body.

In the same way, a bald head that is not even a human needs to rest. In the past two days of fighting, as the person who rushed to the front line at all times, in order to maintain the energy shield on the wailing barrier, he also consumed a lot of mana, the most intuitive manifestation is that he has lost a full circle of weight, and his skin has become much more shriveled... So he had to reduce his energy consumption to a certain amount of time, and drive the fusion reactor in his body to run at high load, and input mana to refill his body.

Xue Qiong sat cross-legged on the wall of the corridor, lit a cigarette for himself again, and looked at the ceiling in the darkness without saying anything.

Others were resting in the next room, yes, a whole five people crammed into one room... Although there are no bugs now, mental shielding must be ensured to envelop everyone at all times. And Xue Qiong's current location, although there is a wall of separation, is still within the scope of that statue.

Mike scratched his greasy hair that was combed into pigtails and tied together, and put his other hand in front of him, shaking rhythmically but carefully as if it was spasmodic, "Yo, yo, how do you know that I still have something~ I haven't finished speaking?" ”

Xue Qiong covered her face with her hand, "What, are you serious at this time?" ”

"Is this necessary?" As he said this, Mike changed back to the image of the Star Spirit Ghost Swordsman Alessato, and the tone of his mouth finally became much more normal.

"Is this necessary?!" Xue Qiong's voice raised a little, but it was still not loud, and she was careful not to disturb the people who were resting, "This sentence is what I should have asked, right?!" Do you have to be like this to be able to speak normally?! ”

Mike shrugged his shoulders, this action was normal for humans, but when it was replaced by the tall body of the Star Spirit, the broad shoulders, and the body proportions that were completely different from those of humans, and the long face that was completely covered by a veil, it became very weird.

"The teachings of the Holy Maiden: The highest level of disguise is that the pretender himself has no doubt about his own disguise."

"You don't need to disguise it now..."

"yes, so I'm back now."

Xue Qiong, who was holding a cigarette, just wanted to say something when he choked on his own spit, coughing and trying to take the cigarette away from his lips, but the cigarette was stuck by his lips, he was in a non-combat state at this time, and of course he also took off the glove Chaos Grip from his hand, in order to let his hands breathe... Although the breathability of this pair of gloves itself is also well done.

So Xue Qiong's fingers slipped on the cigarette roll, and he was burned by the cigarette butt. With a reflex of his fingers, his mouth opened naturally, and the cigarette fell to his crotch...

Fortunately, the GHOST tights worn by Xue Qiong are the world's highest technology made of individual equipment, so it is impossible to be burned with a hole, but he still instinctively cooled his crotch, and reflexively rushed backwards, but he was sitting cross-legged at the base of the wall, so his head hit the wall with a "bang".

In fact, Xue Qiong recalled that the words about disguise that came out of Mike's mouth were occasionally mentioned when he was in the world of Apocalypse in the School Park when he was chatting with Poison Island Tsuneko. Hearing it again at this time, not to mention mixed feelings, at least I was hit by a lot of slots, so I behaved so painfully...

Mike looked at Xue Qiong sympathetically, even though his eyes were blind... Then Mike remembered a conjecture or question that had been haunting him, "I said you, could it be nervous?" ”

"Fart! Cough! Ahem! Xue Qiong finally got out of his breath, leaned against the wall and said weakly: "Let's just talk about your holy daughter's explanation." ”

Mike shrugged his shoulders again, "Actually, if the Holy Maiden confesses directly, I have already finished the message I want to convey to you. But the Holy Maiden also has a command, that whatever you ask, I will answer it truthfully. ”

"Okay." Xue Qiong lit another cigarette as if nothing happened, "You carefully talk about the situation when she appeared in front of you." ”

"Yes." Mike nodded humbly.

Fifty years ago, a precision expedition ship from Shakulas, carrying hundreds of scientists and Templars affiliated with the Dark Sanctuary, was returning in the direction of Shakulas after an exploration of an unknown star field and finally getting rid of a Stud of Light exploration ship that he had encountered by chance.

On the way back, due to an unexpected malfunction, the ship's reflex engine developed some problems, causing the ship to fly slowly in normal mode, and not to perform space warp navigation. But fortunately, at this time, the ship was not too far from an outpost set up by the Dark Sanctuary in the universe, and at the speed at that time, it was estimated that it would be able to reach it in two or three days.

But when they landed on that planet, all they saw were the ruins of the astral buildings, and... Bugs, full of bugs.

"Wait." Xue Qiong interrupted: "But according to the information I heard (the StarCraft setting document retold by Bai Da), the first contact between your star spirit and the Zerg should be Tasada five years ago..."

Mike said nonchalantly, "That's from El's side, when did those glittering fools find out about the Zerg, and have a half-dime to do with us?" And even if we later told the Templar Council of Shakulas about it, wouldn't the high-ranking guys not take it seriously? Let me repeat to you what the great chiefess Raszago had said at that time..."

Mike suddenly made a very noble and cold look, and said with the extreme unhappiness that was still the same as when it was decades later: "I don't care if you are insane or not, and you regard a backward native creature on a colonial planet as a mythical monster, compared to me, I feel an evil aura in you, who is trying to lure my Templar to the Fall?!" ”

"Tsk..." Xue Qiong rubbed her eyebrows, and didn't have much to complain about this part of the past, just said: "When I didn't say it, you continued." ”

Mike nodded, and the hair-like nerve bundles on the top of the star spirit's head had been cut short, but because the star spirit's face was too long, they were still shaking violently under this movement...
