The air was roaring, the earth was trembling, and six rockets were fired to cleanse the entire center of the lake.

At the moment of the explosion of the rocket artillery, Mendel's team was already hiding far behind the sand dunes.

"It's over?"

Still buzzing in his ears, smelling the smell of gunpowder in the air, and looking at the black hole in the middle of the lake, Mendel had a faint sense of unreality.

These monsters who haven't had time to show their might have been blasted into slag like this?

The eerie calm didn't last long.

Boom –

With the sound of small bubbles bursting, a puddle of thick liquid came out of the dry lake that had been plowed by rocket artillery! In areas where the liquid comes into contact, a dark red fungus blanket resembling a plant quickly grows.

However, when the fungus blanket easily covered the corpse of the "bug" and absorbed it completely, everyone's faces changed.

"Withdraw! Evacuate! Mendel looked at the approaching fungus blanket, waved his hand and instructed the team to throw the remaining rocket launchers towards the hole in the middle of the lake, and then drove the empty rocket launcher back.

There were three shells on each rocket launcher, and after two rounds, the meteorite did not explode, but the fungus blanket grew larger and larger.

Everyone rushed wildly, and the fungus blanket expanded its power unhurriedly.

Mendel, who was on the hot air balloon, wondered: "What the hell is it, and how did you patronize the carpet?" What about the bugs? ”

Images of the silent desert, the lonely cave of the Flame Beast, etc., flashed through Mendel's mind—

"Not good!"

Bernstein was driving an experimental rocket launcher, and the roar of the internal combustion engine accompanied the escape.

Boom –

The sand dunes in front of the rocket launcher suddenly exploded a high sand line, and a fierce beast drilled out of the ground! The Behemoth was the height of a centaur, almost the same as Bernstein's vision inside the rocket launcher, and its seahorse-like head was covered with spikes and covered with armor-like carapace, and Bernstein keenly observed that it didn't seem to move fast: "It's in an ambush!" ”

It's a pity that Bernstein's group of novice drivers didn't drive so smoothly, and the steering wheel control was slightly sluggish.

However, the behemoth's movements were not slow, and under Bernstein's terrified gaze, the behemoth's carapace quickly opened, and hundreds of spikes burst out in an instant!

In just an instant, dozens of holes appeared on the nine-millimeter alloy steel plate smelted by the dwarf Moredin on the rocket body!

"Bernstein!" Mendel's eyes were torn, and the Kalashnikov in his hand continued to bombard the ground, but in the face of the carapace of the giant beast, he was unable to return, and the hot air balloon was almost pierced several times.

Behind the behemoth was the first insect that had been cleaned by the rocket, and this group of small insects gnawed at the alloy of the vehicle, and finally revealed the green blood of Bernstein inside the car.

Green blood poured out of Bernstein's wounds and flowed into the earth, and Kalashnikov had exhausted all the bullets in his hand, and Bernstein's nerves seemed to be green.

The effects of recharging under the sun every day for dozens of days were emerging, and Bernstein's dying body began to slowly change.

Bernstein's fibers are increasing, and his whole body is slowly taking root in the ground, and his skull is slowly transforming into a bag-like structure like plasticine, and the calcium in his body is constantly concentrating on the internal organs, turning into green marbles like relics in the body.

Under Mendel's astonished gaze, surrounded by a swarm of insects, Bernstein's feet were rooted in the earth, and the beast's mouth opened wider and wider—

Bernstein, who had lost his vocal cords and head, only had time to burst out with an angry roar—

“Waaagh！”

Tutu Tu –

Really? In the posture of a pea shooter, Bernstein fills his own flesh, bones and will like the last pea, and sends out the last roar of life to the bugs that surround him!

After Bernstein, five other rocket launchers, suffered the same tragedy, and the shooters' peas pierced several bugs before being overwhelmed by the swarm of bugs!

"Withdraw!" Only the hot air balloon in the air, far away.

When Mendel returned to the desert border, he met an army of pea shooters led by the electrotherapy prophet Unil and an army of digging worms led by Meebo, the leader of the engineer brigade.

In addition to this, Mendel also saw a group of green-skinned orcs with a golden sheen!

"There aren't many of these bugs right now." When the information of the fungus blanket came, Zhong Tian understood the situation.

This extraterrestrial visitor apparently attracted the creatures of the desert to the middle of the lake by some means, and used the massive heat energy of magma to transform this group of creatures that threw themselves into the net, and initially built the Zerg army.

And this fungus blanket should be used to convert heat energy and air into organic matter, the existence of the fungus blanket just shows that the organic matter is not enough, so the construction of the Zerg army should not be completed.

The task now is to quickly deploy defenses and destroy the organic matter reserves of this group of insects above and below ground.

Watching the pea shooter turn out to be real at the end? Pea shooter, Zhong Tian asked suspiciously: "Sheehan, is the pea shooter your design?" ”

"No, Commander. At present, although we have sequenced and depicted the gene sequence and gene map, the expression of the gene sequence of the world's organisms is slightly different from that of the Red Alert world and still needs to be tested, and the industrial level of the dog union cannot complete gene programming, gene cutting, gene remodeling and other technologies. Our current level is only the implantation of chloroplasts for orcs, and the function of loading chloroplasts is the function of the orc genes that already exist. Sheehan looked at the information suspiciously, his expression fluctuating slightly, "However, we don't see that this gene will have the expression of 'violently vegetative once seriously injured and dying'. ”

"It doesn't seem like good news." Zhong Tian could hear that Sheehan obviously had something to say.

"Cultivating a species in a targeted manner, and also setting hidden expressions in the gene sequence, it seems that it is not difficult for the dragon civilization to leave this planet with this alone."

"Yet they disappeared without a trace. Is it because of the bugs? It seems that the place where the big head comes is not a good place. Zhong Tian's face was solemn, and the bad news came one after another, and there was always a sense of urgency.

Zhong Tian's speculation was not wrong, after the fungus blanket spread to a radius of one kilometer, it gradually slowed down, and the organic matter reserve and consumption of this group of insects entered a state of equilibrium. This also means that the dog union has to prepare to face the other party's stock of bugs for a week, and in addition, the other party has a steady stream of bugs every day.

Given that Kalashnikov was ineffective against the carapace of the Serpent-class Behemoth, Unil urgently deployed a group of magic net mages who were proficient in armor weakening and corrosion to assist the pea shooters on the hot air balloons.

In conjunction with the detection of the burrowing insects underground, the pea shooters carried out carpet cleaning of the five kilometers outside the fungus blanket.
