Chapter 177: Is This a Plague?
It's a group of peculiar creatures.
The Reaper spotted the creatures in the sea more than fifty kilometers away, and as Lynn thought, the creatures were quite large......
The creatures are purple, and in the sunlight, they are like purple clouds that cover the sky and the sun, moving mightily across the sea, and the sound of their flight can be heard clearly by the surrounding sea with a radius of more than ten kilometers.
Very few creatures grow this strange color, and it is generally more conspicuous than predatory, but it probably doesn't matter to this kind of creature that sweeps through the qiē.
But the strange thing is that they are not a division of labor species, at least for now, Lynn only sees one form.
For more detailed confirmation, Lynn had the Reaper fly closer to the group of creatures, stopping at a distance of about a kilometer to observe them closely.
The creatures were about thirty centimeters long, larger than the largest terrestrial arthropod Lynn had ever seen since the oxygen had dropped, and somewhat resembled a cricket-like creature, which Lynn had a name in her mind: 'Locust'.
If the whole group is called the 'Wandering Plague', then it might be better to call the individual class 'Plague Locusts'.
They fly over the sea with a pair of narrow wings, large curved jaws in their mouths, and no solid armor on their bodies, so they look soft, but crickets and other creatures are relatively soft.
They flew in the air from more than fifty meters to a hundred meters above the sea, and Lynn really didn't think there was anything special about them, except that they were as large as a storm.
Can this creature be called a 'wandering plague'? However, it may or may not be that Lynn was mistaken, this is probably another group of arthropods flying over the sea. Instead of scaring away the creatures of the whole island, creatures with terrible ruining abilities.
But the direction they were heading was indeed Lynn's island. And so much so a lot of creatures...... Lynn estimates that there may be around a million of them. You need a lot of food to sustain it.
However, the ocean can also provide them with a lot of food, and they don't have to raid islands, although they don't look like creatures that can live in the sea.
In short, it is necessary to follow up.
Lin is also preparing on the island, if this group of 'plagues' is close to the island, then the landing direction is right on the beach in front of it, and Lin will set up forts on the beach to meet the group of creatures.
If they really are the 'Wandering Plague'.
If this is really the only one of these creatures, Lynn can probably solve them all with a turret. But Lin was definitely not going to be so light, so in addition to the battery, she prepared the bombers and Behemoth for battle.
The reason for going to war with them is quite simple, as soon as they destroy them, Lin destroys them.
At present, the reapers are tracking and observing them, and this group of 'wandering plagues' will take about 3,600 seconds to fly at a speed of about thirty kilometers, which is obviously not full speed, and occasionally flies slower, which gives Lin time to prepare.
A large number of forts were placed on the white sand, and the sand and gravel on the beach could be integrated through guò as their ammunition. The Pioneers collected a lot of nutrients in the sea, which provided these batteries with ample energy.
It's plankton season. Pioneers didn't have to devour the fountains of the hydrothermal vents to get enough nutrients.
At the same time, the head worm said that it wanted to try to command the battle, and it seemed that because it had not commanded for too long, it felt a strange feeling in the brain.
There is an area of the brain of the head worm that is dedicated to commanding troops, and it is true that problems may arise if it is not used for too long, so Lin also thinks that it should be let command.
Lynn was going to let the head worm command the turret, and it should be easy to watch the display command in Behemoth, so Lin added some special structures to the turret so that they would react to the head bug's vocabulary.
After setting up the forts, the next step was to wait for the 'plague' to arrive......
Although their speed should come quickly, they always slow down, and as the Reapers follow them, Lynn becomes more and more suspicious of their 'Wandering Plague', and at this point, Lynn Reapers discovers an island in the sea below, which is exactly where they will pass.
The island is only a few dozen meters in diameter, and there is nothing but sand on it, but there is an 'echo egg' on it, which makes a 'gada' sound constantly.
And just as the 'Wandering Plague' passed through the island, their overwhelming group suddenly split into two halves as if they had encountered a wall of air, as if they had been cut by the island, and they split into two groups to bypass the island, and then when they flew over the island, the two groups merged again......
That's amazing.
This was followed by a few more islands with eggs, and the Wandering Plague, just like before, would fly around the islands and not even approach the skies above them.
Sure enough, the sound lizard of the jungle did use the 'gada' sound to try to avoid the wandering plague approaching the island, but its voice was too small, and it was very different from the common pronunciation of the egg, and it was estimated that it had no effect on them.
However, if Lin gets a few echo eggs back, she may be able to keep them from approaching the island, but now there is obviously not enough time, and she doesn't know how many of them will have to cover the entire island, so she has to face it.
But until then, Lynn thought she might have to give it a try...... What exactly are they capable of?
Lin made the Reaper suddenly rush in the direction of the target, and the fastest Reaper quickly flew in front of the creatures of the huge community.
When the Wandering Plague saw the Reaper, they suddenly accelerated and flapped their wings towards the Reaper, who at the same time accelerated to meet the reaper head-on, rushing into the army of locusts......
Lin felt that the difference in combat power between the two sides was very rewarding.
The Reaper's hardened wings reflected a dazzling glow in the sunlight, and in just a second, it sliced dozens of locusts in two, their shattered bodies scattered with blood and entrails.
The explosive insect combination attached to the Reaper's wings exploded, and the Reaper reaped the locust's life in a swift manner, and the locust's limbs and wreckage rained down into the sea......
Although the locusts swooped down frantically to attack, they were like raindrops hitting the rocks, knocking themselves to pieces.
Is the legendary plague so vulnerable? Lynn thought that if there weren't too many of them, a single reaper would be able to 'harvest' them completely. (To be continued......)
