Chapter 256: The Mother of the Swarm

Standing in the hallway, he stuck his fingers in his hair, sad for a while, then sighed and went downstairs.

Nine soldiers and an armored fighting vehicle, exactly ten people, just squeezed to fit into the car.

"it, just let me out as soon as I was promoted, this captain is in vain."

Ye Qing came to the bottom of the base speechlessly, found an armored combat vehicle at random, opened the roster of soldiers, randomly ticked nine people on it, and sent the information to Ensign Wente and asked him to arrange.

These nine people are all fighting on the city wall now, they can't be transferred casually, they must rearrange people to take over the defense line, this needs to be solved by Ensign Vent, he doesn't have the power.

The nine people he chose were all plot characters, and none of them were reincarnators, so there was an advantage, obedience.

Although the strength of the reincarnation is much stronger than that of the soldiers in the plot, he is not obedient enough, and if it is a dangerous task, it is estimated that the command will not move, so he will not find a group of uncles to go over.

The plot soldiers are much better, they are born to obey orders, as long as they give orders, they dare to rush forward no matter how dangerous the task is, which is much stronger than finding a group of uncles.

The personnel arrived quickly, but they couldn't set off yet, there were too many insects and beasts outside, and they couldn't rush out for the time being, and they couldn't go out until the insects and beasts attacked and retreated.

This estimate will have to wait to see if the momentum of the insect tide will recede for a while and a half.

And this wait is a full half a day, a whole day and a night of attack, before finally temporarily retreating, it is estimated that the loss of the swarm cannon fodder is a bit large, and he can't keep up for a while, he stood on a high place and saw that the number of swarms was much less.

As soon as the battle stopped, Ye Qing immediately summoned his men to get into the armored car, the gate of the base opened, and he immediately galloped out and rushed outside.

Out of ten, only two of the ten people stayed in the car to control the tank, and the other eight, including him, stayed in the car and controlled the weapons on the armored vehicle.

In order to increase the combat effectiveness, two pulse machine guns were welded overnight, and a small ion cannon was installed in front of the roof of the car to deal with long-range stinging snakes.

He sat on the roof of the car and pulled up a pulse machine gun, and when he saw insects and beasts on the side, a shuttle of bullets flew over and hit it to pieces.

The strength of the insect beast is too weak, and there are dozens of bullets in a shuttle, which is enough to kill it in seconds.

It's just an armored car, and the speed is still quite fast at full speed, at least the insects and beasts can't catch up, so they take advantage of the gap in the retreat of the insect tide and forcibly rush out.

As soon as he broke out of the encirclement, he heard a roar in the distance, and a cloud of ionic blue light rose, and the attack of the insect tide began again.

The chariot drove up a high slope and looked down, and you could see that the dense swarm of insects surrounded the base built in the middle of the three peaks, and the tongues of fire from the pulse machine guns lit up from afar.

"Look, what's that?"

A soldier suddenly pointed in one of the directions and was startled.

Ye Qing immediately looked over, and his pupils shrank sharply.

Not far from the base, a mountain peak suddenly collapsed, and a huge ball of flesh emerged from it, slowly moving towards the base under the protection of the insects that were all over the sky.

This ball of flesh is estimated to be hundreds of meters high, with many tentacles growing on it, and there is a huge cavity in the back, from which slime-stained insects and beasts are constantly crawling out, or giving birth.

Female worm, this is a female worm that can produce insect beasts, this growth rate is extremely amazing, almost several in a second, and the newly born insect beasts can be put into battle in just a few minutes, and the efficiency is super high.

Ye Qing immediately said to the soldiers on the side:

"Immediately the discovery will be reported to the base!"

But the soldier got into the car and after a while said:

"The base is blocked by an unknown signal and cannot be connected!"

"Damn it!"

Ye Qing clenched his fists and slammed on the roof of the car, hesitating for a moment.

If you guessed correctly, it was the signal from the giant female worm that blocked their signal and made it impossible to connect, and the base had no way of knowing that a female worm had moved outside, which was dangerous.

Don't look at the female worm like a lump of meat with no combat effectiveness, and the way people fight is not hand-to-hand combat at all, but other ways.

He suspected that all the soldiers in the base had disappeared, perhaps because they had been killed by the mother worm in a special way.

If you can't communicate, there is no other way to remind you, the insect swarm is newly encircled, and it is impossible for them to run back, which is looking for death.

He himself has a way to go back, whether it is stealth or flying skills, but it is too dangerous, it is definitely not possible to be invisible in front of the mother worm, there are too many stinging snakes in the insect swarm, and it is unrealistic to fly over.

The main thing is that it's too dangerous, and there are not enough characters in the base for him to take such a big risk, and his relationship with the remaining reincarnators in the base and the plot soldiers has not reached the point of sacrificing his life to save him, so...

I could only watch as the mother worm slowly approached the base, slowly approaching from behind the mountain.

There was a mountain blocking the view, and the female worm was only a little over a kilometer from the base but had not yet been discovered.

During the day, temporary satellites cannot be lifted into space, so they cannot see distant places, and can only rely on their own line of sight, and cannot be observed behind the mountain.

It didn't take long for the female worm to approach the base only a few hundred meters away, and its huge size finally couldn't be hidden and was discovered by the base, although it didn't see it, Ye Qing was sure that everyone in the base was definitely frightened.

Soon he saw several flames rising above the base, which were missiles fired from inside the base.

The missile flew out with a long flame and blasted towards .... The mountain on the side.

Immediately afterwards, several ion cannons also fired at the same time, aiming at the mountain peaks on the side and bombarding wildly, a large amount of debris flew around, and in less than ten seconds, a large piece of the entire mountainside was blown away, and the mountain tilted and fell.

The mother insect not far away was not damaged at all, and was still slowly moving towards the base.

Not long after, something terrifying happened, the gate to the base suddenly opened, and all the combatants began to evacuate, walking towards the mother. The swarm outside also strangely stopped attacking at this moment, allowing them to leave the base.

Until now, Ye Qing couldn't guess what was going on, this mother worm had a powerful psychic ability, which directly shielded and distorted the perception of everyone in the base, changed the mountain on the side into an enemy, and changed herself into a reinforcement.

Maybe he didn't guess very accurately, but eight or nine is not far from ten, otherwise the gate of the base would not have been opened for no reason, and everyone would be sent to death so strangely.

"It can't be like this."

Ye Qing gritted his teeth, suddenly came to the ion gun carriage on the roof of the car, turned the muzzle of the gun in the direction of the base, and aimed at the female worm.

Although it is a small ion cannon, the attack distance is not low, and the maximum range can reach hundreds of kilometers, and he is less than ten kilometers away from the base, so he can hit it completely.

When the target was calibrated, he decisively pressed the button, and a blue beam flew out of the muzzle, instantly crossing a distance of nearly ten kilometers to hit the female worm.

Looking from afar, you can see that there is a ball of blue light flickering on the huge body of the female worm, which immediately pierces its body, and the huge mountain of meat breaks a big hole, and a large amount of viscous liquid flows out, and the bulging body quickly deflats.

At this time, several people had already walked into the mouth of the female worm, and after the female worm was attacked, they suddenly woke up, and when they saw the environment they were in now, they immediately retreated in fright.

Obviously, the female worms were attacked, and the special ability to control them had disappeared, and everyone came to their senses and hurried back to the base in fright.

In particular, a few soldiers who were still at the base came directly to the fort on the base, and several shots in succession directly bombarded the injured female worm into slag.

As soon as the mother worm died, the nearby insect swarm immediately became chaotic, and all the insects no longer attacked the city, but rushed towards the corpse of the female worm in a swarm, and the most recent one had begun to devour the corpse of the female worm.

This female worm is a horse with strong mental ability, but her body is too weak, and she will be injured by a random shot, and she will be beaten into slag with a few shots.

Speaking of which, it is also dead, the mother worm should have been hiding in a safe place to command the swarm, and she dared to run out without the protection of the high-level swarm, which is also looking for death.

As soon as the mother worm died, communication was immediately restored, and it didn't take long for Ye Qing to receive a message from Ensign Vent:

"You saved everyone, the connection with the expeditionary force base has been restored, you come back!"

"This luck..."

Ye Qing pinched his chin with his hand, and when he saw the prompt for completing the task on the reincarnation seal, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly:

"It's not good!"

When he finished speaking, he turned to the soldiers in the car and shouted:

"Our mission is complete, now go back to base."

Everyone immediately shouted excitedly, and the armored car immediately turned around and drove back.

Along the way, the swarm can be seen completely disorganized, most of them scattered, a small number of them attacking in all directions, and some even attacking their armored vehicles.

Until a new female worm is born, the swarm will remain in this state until the new female worm is born, and then it will return to order, but it will take a long time for the new female worm to be born, and this time is enough time for the base to get the support of the expeditionary force and build a stronger base.

By the time he got back to the base, the battle was over, and there were only a few sporadic battles, which were chaotic bugs hitting the base.

Fortunately, this insect swarm is not strong enough, it can be said that it is still at the lowest stage, there are no high-level zergs, even the intermediate zerg has only one stinging snake, and then I don't see other types, there are enough cannon fodder, but the strength is not enough to break through the base.

In addition, the mother worm dared to come out by herself, and was killed by him with a bombardment, and the battle was over.

Back at the base, the officer died another one and was eaten by the mother worm, plus Ye Qing only had four officers left, he was lucky to get the command of a plot soldier, the command of the third platoon, including two armored combat vehicles and four personal combat platforms, that is, exoskeleton armor, and a total of forty soldiers.

It is a pity that there is no command of those heavy tanks, which belong to the first platoon, that is, the commander of the second lieutenant Went.

There were only three platoons in the task force, and he was now one of the top echelons of the base, which sounded pretty good.

The mother worm died, the signal that the base was blocked was restored, and Second Lieutenant Went immediately reported the situation back to the expeditionary force base, and has received a response, and will support a battalion of troops in a few days, with a large amount of supplies.
