Chapter 12: The Lurker

Frank saw through the lens of the bug lurking underground, which he recognized as the Lurker, an unusually deadly creature.

"These creatures give me a feeling of extreme danger!" Zeratul said.

"Stand back! Back off! Stand back, everybody! Frank said in a low and quiet voice over the communicator. But there was an inexplicable depression, which made everyone nervous.

"Don't panic! Don't panic! Slowly retreat! Watch your steps! That's right, there are bugs under your feet, let them continue to sleep, don't alarm them. Frank continued, his tone as if he were coaxing a baby, and everyone held their breath and slowly retreated.

"Phoenix, tell your people to be careful under their feet, there is a terrible insect lurking in the ground, very deadly." Frank said sternly.

A Marine glanced at a tree trunk beside him, the fungus blanket was spreading on the trunk, and the purple veins of the intestines like the size of a thumb were spreading rapidly on the trunk like vines, not one, but countless such "intestines" spreading on it, and the Marine put on a disgusted face and spat fiercely.

Suddenly, a spike burst out of the ground from under the marine's feet.

"Ah......h

"Ah......h

The silence of the forest was broken by the screams of almost hysteria, and the hearts of the fearful people shook at this moment, as if the tight strings had suddenly broken. A spiky, earth-colored ground pierced through the ground and pierced the marine's body. Towers nearly 10 feet above the surface. In a terrible scene, the Marine stuck on the top of the ground thorn without any suspense, his back was facing the sky, his hands and feet fell weakly to the ground, and the scarlet blood flowed wildly on the surface of the ground thorn.

The sudden scene made everyone's hearts seem to burst, stop beating, and stare at the place of the incident, the marine's screams soon stopped, and the forest fell into the economy again.

Shout!

Suddenly, the spikes sank into the ground, and the Marine slammed into the ground from a height of 10 feet. Dead.

"Ahh

"OMG! Oh my land! ”

A scream from another spot instantly detonated the audience. The forest is not silent.

A row of ground thorns burst through the ground without warning, and one Marine's body was pierced in half, and the other was pierced through the thigh, and the whole person was suspended 10 feet in the air. Suppressed by boundless fear, he couldn't breathe. Finally stopped screaming loudly. A giant machine was also hit, and the machinery in its abdomen was damaged and could not function normally.

Shout!

A row of spikes broke through the ground and sank into the ground. The Marine slammed down from a great height.

Shout!

Another row of ground pierced through the earth......

"Da Da Da ......"

The gunshots finally rang out, and the Marines stabbed at the ground, and there was blood, and the spurs hit by the bullets instinctively dived into the ground, and there seemed to be a low chirp from underground, which was as terrible to them as the voice of a demon.

"Retreat! Fall back! Give me a quick action!! Get out of this damn place! Frank roared. Every time the thorn appeared, several soldiers died, and his eyes were almost red.

The entire unit quickly retreated, and the gunfire continued, and many Marines ran while shooting at the ground. However, these ground spikes were not able to overwhelm the group of Templars, who easily dodged the attacks with their quick reflexes, and also took the opportunity to swing their energy blades to slash many spikes. The Templars were constantly tumbling and flamboyant, performing flamboyant combat skills and battling these monsters.

The Templars were at ease, but the Rangers were not, and they had to escape.

Every Marine ran out of that terrible circle with a huff, and it was still in shock.

"Cade, report the casualties!" Frank Road.

"Three hundred and seventy-three brothers have been killed, and more than four hundred brothers have been wounded, sir!" Cade gasped and reported.

"Damn it!" Frank slammed into the nearby tree in a circle, leaving a deep groove.

It's unacceptable that so many people have died in just such a short time. The Lurker, a mutated insect unit of the Stinging Snake, these creatures specialize in lurking underground to inflict a fatal blow on enemies.

Eventually, the creature appeared on the surface, with an earthy exterior and a body covered in pins and needles.

"Those monsters are ......"

"Giant fluffy spiders?"

The Marines stared at the bugs that emerged from the ground.

"They're coming this way!" Another Marine shouted.

"Quick! Fire! Stop them from getting closer! Frank yelled, "Beat me up!" ”

For a moment, the sound of gunfire resounded in the forest, and the ground was instantly covered with a layer of bullet casings.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The giant machine launches the Exterminator missile, leaving a trail of smoke in its tracks, and the missile shoots tongues of fire at the big monsters.

Rumble!

A "big spider" that was about to dive into the ground was blown to pieces.

Shout! Shout! Shout! Shout!

The Exterminator missile drew a trail of white smoke and a fox fairy, and the interior of the forest burst into flames for a while, and the dead wood was ignited, and the forest burst into flames. Looking down from the sky, rolling black rocks rose into the sky, the forest was ignited, and the fire was spreading rapidly. In the sky, several king insects slowly floated in, and three alien dragons hovered over the forest, letting out bursts of creepy hiss......

"All the troops are on my heels! Advance! Frank shouted, keeping his mind on the ground for possible danger as he led his troops from a safe route towards the Protoss ranks.

……

Deep in the forest, which had been flooded with a blanket of fungus, suddenly, a green light flashed next to a tree trunk, a ghost agent on the front line, one of his arms was still invisible, while the others were exposed, he leaned back against the trunk, and adjusted his breathing steadily. On the other side of the tree trunk, a wave of stinging snakes was hissing, but he was not noticed at all, the stinging snakes moved quickly on the fungus blanket, and when they moved away, he spoke: "I found a big wave of bugs approaching, it's the stinging snake troops!" ”

"Roger! Keep lurking! —Lawrence.

"Got it!" Frank on the main battlefield pointed his ear pinna with one hand, Lawrence sent him a report, he walked to Phoenix as soon as possible, and said quickly: "We have been exposed, the Zerg army is gathering towards us, we can't delay it for a moment, we must arrive at the temple as quickly as possible and leave here, this only chance of life, we have to explain here if we are slow!" ”
