0030 Gourd Cave
Zhao Shaoyun opened the private channel with Cen Mu and Tang Xiao and asked, "Dad, when was the last time we came?" I think it was three years ago, right? ”
Tang Xiao sighed: "That's right, it was really possible to take down the worm nest in one go that time!" ”
Cen Mu couldn't help but ask, "How was that battle?" Is it easier than this time? ”
Tang Xiao muttered: "That time, the entire black-backed wolf army participated in the battle, and the troops of two regular regiments were specially transferred to maintain the supply line, and the participants in the entire war were afraid that there were tens of thousands of people, and at that time there were no fewer insects than now, but there were no high-end troops like the ones encountered in the past few days, however, our casualties were still very large, mainly due to the limitation of underground space, the inability to command, the chaos of our own people, and some people accidentally injured their own people." ↖,
However, if you want to compare that team with the current one, purely in terms of combat effectiveness, I still think that the black-backed wolf back then was stronger than now! At that time, two-thirds of the 3,000 people were veterans, and many of them were elites sharpened in major battles, and their abilities and qualities were outstanding, and after that war, the black-backed wolf lost more than 1,000 people, all of whom were elite talents, alas~ What a pity! ”
Looking back on the past, Tang Xiao was full of emotion.
"This time it's mainly because of you, otherwise, we would have 100 people left here now, which would be good. Now it seems that the perception field is really a strategic weapon! It's no wonder that those old guys from the research institute are rare! If we had set up a vision sharing network at the beginning, I am afraid that the casualties in this battle would be smaller! ”
Zhao Shaoyun said with a smile: "How can you say that you can take it, Dad, we don't have enough money to build it, unless you put the military salary for the next two quarters into it." ”
Tang Xiao made a helpless expression, and then said: "Continue to answer Xiao Mu's question, last time we also hit this rock sugar gourd cave, at that time, Tang Ziyu gave me a death order, one word, withdraw!" He saw the strength of this legion and hoped that I could use this opportunity to infiltrate the Blackback Wolf Legion, indirectly control it, and prepare for the possible civil strife in the Federation in the future. ”
Zhao Shaoyun smiled: "Daddy regrets it now, right?" ”
Tang Xiao snorted and said, "I'm afraid that time it hurt the hearts of the neutral faction of the two sessions, and few people in the parliament have supported me over the years, I guess there is this reason in it." ”
Zhao Shaoyun said with a smile: "Dad doesn't need to sigh, how can these people in the council have any intentions, everyone just has similar interests, the fall of Bingling City scared a group of people, so, there are many main battles, anyway, they don't need to go to the battlefield, now ~ are used to it, besides, with you on their shoulders, what are they worried about!" ”
He asked, "Master, the last time you came, was this cave what it is now?" ”
These words immediately attracted the attention of the two, Zhao Shaoyun sighed, and said, "Don't say it, it's really a little different." ”
At this time, the insects in front were sparsely packed and could not be a threat at all, and the insects in the rear were stuck at the mouth of the gourd by the two teams, unable to enter, and the rest of the people were scattered in the first gourd ball to rest, a round of hard running battles, everyone was almost exhausted, and the supplies in Cen Mu's space bag were also consumed by nearly two-thirds, this battle has burned nearly 70 million federal shields, if it is useless in the end, then Tang Xiao is afraid that he will vomit blood in anger, of course, if he really can't fight, it is more likely that he will not even have the opportunity to vomit blood.
Cen Mu began to inquire about the situation of this gourd cave.
The average height of the karst cave is about three meters, it is formed by two huge rock layers of depression together, there are countless cracks in the upper and lower cave walls, water continues to seep out between the cracks, hundreds of thousands of years have passed, countless stone pillars of different lengths and thicknesses are pulled out between the cracks, there is a thousand needles of stone forest, the stone pillars here are much more intact than the stalactite forest, there is almost no damage, a crack is cracked on the left side of the cave, from behind the gap, the cold wind is poured into the cave, the cold wind carries the water of the underground dark river, it is cold and damp and cold, outside the gap, there is a deep ditch that is three meters wide downward, This deep ditch has been spreading downward, and the perception field of Cen Mu's team can't detect its depth, indicating that the depth of this ditch is at least more than 3,000 meters, before, Tang Xiao said that he really couldn't resist it, this crack can also be used as the last way to live, and now it seems that this way of life is no different from a dead road.
Look at the arrangement in this gourd ball, there are very few eggs in this ball hole, only a few black-brown, shriveled, and uneven eggs with pitted skin are seen at the edge of the cave wall.
Six pits were dug at the edge of the cave wall on both sides, three on each side, each pit was five meters long and wide, and a thick biological hose stretched out from the unknown depths of the rock formation, and the rock wall was stretched open and fell straight to the edge of the pit, and a dark brown viscous liquid was bubbling out, the smell was slightly fishy, the pool had already been filled with this viscous liquid, but for some reason, the liquid never overflowed, Cen Mu didn't know what the composition of this liquid was, and the tentacles of the sensing field probed into the pool, but found something that surprised him!
"There's oversized eggs down here!" Cen Mu hurriedly issued a warning.
A group of people were startled, Zhao Shaoyun immediately issued an order, and each pit sent a team to find out, and he and Tang Xiao walked to the pool where Cen Mu raised the alarm.
Zhao Shaoyun asked, "How deep is this pit?" ”
Cen Mu measured it and said, "Ten meters." ”
Ten meters?! In this way, this pool has a capacity of at least 250 cubic meters, how many eggs can be put down?!
Cen Mu probed carefully, and without waiting for Zhao Shaoyun to continue to ask, he said: "The eggs are all at the bottom of the pool, and the diameter of each egg is about one meter, and there are twenty roses in this pool. ”
Without waiting for Zhao Shaoyun to give an order, Cen Mu picked up the machine gun, and fired a sweep, and the rapid bullet flow splashed the liquid in the entire pool, however, the bullet was shot into a depth of one meter of the liquid, and it had lost eighty percent of its kinetic energy, and when it reached a depth of two meters, it was already the end of the crossbow, and the bullet stopped, and then sank slowly.
Depending on the situation, if people don't go down, there is not much to do about the eggs!
Zhao Shaoyun asked, "What is the composition of this liquid?" Is it poisonous? ”
Cen Mu stretched out his finger, dipped it in the pool, and put it in his mouth.
Ling Ding said: "Huh~ Xiao Mu, is it disgusting? This is also eaten! ”
Cen Mu smiled at her and said, "Hmm~ Chocolate mixed with sour plum juice, and a little sauce taste, the taste is ...... It's a little good~ Do you want to have some? ”
Tang Xin covered her mouth and smiled.
Ling Ding raised her fist and made a gesture to hit him.
Cen Mu smiled, turned his head and said: "Very rich energy liquid, higher than the energy density of our military nutrients, non-toxic, if we have nothing to eat, we can consider eating this, that is...... The taste is a little weird, a little heavy. ”
Listening to Cen Muyi's words, Zhao Shaoyun frowned, originally during the incubation period of oviparous organisms, all the nutrients can be supplied by the nutrients carried by the eggs themselves, this is the common sense of oviparous organisms, however, these dozens of eggs have such treatment, and they need to supply so much energy before they are born, it can be guessed that what is bred here is by no means low-level goods!
Cen Mu said: "The rock wall here is not thick, break it, and there is a ditch outside, which is unfathomable. ”
Zhao Shaoyun instantly understood what Cen Mu meant, and immediately issued an order for the cold weapon expert to cut open this rock wall.
Two men with two-handed giant swords came out of the ranks, walked to the gap in the rock wall, shouted, held the sword with both arms, pushed together, the big sword stabbed into the rock wall in response, almost no handle, and then, he struggled to pull out, the big sword moved a distance, repeatedly stabbed a few times, rose a kick, kicked on the rock wall, the whole cave trembled slightly, the gravel splashed, a hole with a radius of half a meter appeared in front of the man, the cold wind poured in, and squeezed out the ghost crying and howling between the cracks of the rock wall, as if the entire rock wall had life, crying for this wound, Outside the cave is dark and secluded, bottomless, and looks like a deep ditch that has been torn out by a huge slate fracture after geological action.
The sword-wielding man cut a gap in the liquid pool near the entrance of the hole, this full pool of liquid flooded, poured into the unpredictable deep ditch, and there was no echo for a long time, the two of them drew a scoop according to the gourd, and opened a gap in the other two pools, gradually, the energy liquid level dropped little by little, until a gap of seven or eight meters was dug down, which revealed the follicles at the bottom of the pool.
This is a huge egg, the whole body is purple, the surface is crisscrossed and covered with blood vessels of different thicknesses, the blood vessels are entwined with purple-black translucent bubbles, like a fire roasted bubbles, the bubbles are filled with energy liquid, extremely disgusting, and the whole looks like the heart of a giant beast, with the contraction of blood vessels, it fluctuates and pulses, and it is full of vitality.
Cen Mu nodded to Zhao Shaoyun, picked up M749, and shot at these insect eggs, the bullets clicked and hit the follicle soft tissue and slurry scattered in all directions, and the creatures in the insect eggs quickly reacted, emitting a sharp and piercing insect sound, and the shrinking insect body stretched out, and it was a mini little green dragon, on all fours, a little unsteady on its feet, this little green dragon had already sensed the threat, and jumped, trying to escape from this pit.
Zhao Shaoyun gave an order, "Fire!" ”
Dozens of machine guns fired at the same time, and the metal torrent compiled covered all the more than 20 follicles, as expected, the shell of the newborn little green dragon insect has not hardened, and the ability has not been reflected, ordinary machine gun bullets can tear the insect shell, more than a dozen machine guns fire, these twenty little green dragons are like sending vegetables, and they are killed by random guns.
These are all sixth-order bugs! More than sixty sixth-order bugs!!
Zhao Shaoyun was so excited that he chattered endlessly in the team channel, reading: "Earn over!" Earn a lot of money...... Holy! That's the benefit of catching a trip! See! Samples! ”
These insects clearly made a targeted deployment by the hive mastermind, and it has understood that the low-end insects can no longer stop the penetration of this wave of human elite soldiers, only high-end combat power, if these sixty little green dragons all hatch, reach the best state, and go out together, then it can definitely kill the entire black-backed wolf elite group in the depths of the ground.
"Go on! Three other pools, dig a drain for me and lead to this pool! Zhao Shaoyun sent the instructions down.
The rock wall here is close to the mountain, which is solid, and it is more troublesome to deal with the liquid, but there are digging tools, that is, to let the insects live for about ten more minutes.
Zhao Shaoyun then ordered, "If there is an arrangement, hurry up and work, the faster these eggs are killed, the brothers will have one less big opponent, and the rest of the people will continue to probe in with me, I will strangle all the eggs!" ”
In the next few hours, Zhao Shaoyun led a large army to clean the remaining five gourd balls, the more insect eggs there were, some of the eggs have entered the broken shell, groups of one-meter-long worker insects are busy cultivating these eggs, some need to be soaked in the energy pool, some need to be fished out of the pool, hundreds of worker insects are tirelessly busy......
Zhao Shaoyun will be killed no matter what kind of insects he encounters, and there are countless potential threats that have been cleaned up in this round, and he even killed a giant egg with a diameter of more than three meters, and the insects bred here are species that have never been seen before, if it is fully developed, then I am afraid that the existence of the lord of the insect swarm.
And this giant egg was naturally taken into the pocket by Cen Mu, waiting for Protos to crack its secret.
Finally, finally! This team has reached the end of the last operation, and the next road is completely unknown, maybe as guessed, next is the hive core, maybe the beginning of another worm path, maybe there is an unrivaled existence hidden behind it.
Who knows?
For the first time, the secrets of the Swarm Canyon will be exposed to humans.
ps: Thank you for the time rain, Ding Xiaoran Baidu.
