[769] Plan to close the net
Just when Cheng Han was exploring the law and striding forward on the path of the gods.
The war in the area of the sandstorm is becoming more and more intense.
Because of the cataclysmic insect swarm that fell from the sky, the number is increasing.
In a corner of the desert.
The first queue to which Luo Jun belonged encountered a tough battle.
The team had just turned a sand dune when the flying ant Xiaofei suddenly issued an early warning.
"Squeak! Chirping! ”
The screaming was very rapid.
Luo Jun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shouted: "The horse team is positive, there are insects nearby, ......"
The words are not finished yet.
There was a strange whistling sound in his ears.
"Whew! Call! ”
The next moment.
In the vast wind and sand.
Dozens of white shadows swept over quickly, instantly hitting the sand in front of everyone.
With the sound of "popping", the white shadows burst one after another.
A large area of extremely cold air came out in an instant.
On the ground within a radius of tens of meters, a layer of hard ice appeared in an instant, and a thin layer of frost also appeared in the farther area.
Including the horse team, the five warriors who walked at the forefront were unfortunately covered by the cold and immediately turned into humanoid ice sculptures.
A moment later.
Their pupils froze.
Obviously.
The extreme cold was terrifying, and the five warriors were frozen to death.
The group of soldiers who followed behind were also affected by the extreme cold, and they were all shivering with cold.
If it weren't for the protection of the biochemical armor, I am afraid that everyone would be frozen and lose their mobility.
Team Zhang decisively took over the command and immediately shouted: "Retreat...... Boom...... All of them...... Boom...... Disperse! ”
The "boom" that is mixed in with it is the collision caused by the fluttering of the teeth.
A group of people trembled and activated the flight module, increasing the engine power to the maximum, and the back nozzle immediately spewed out a violent air current.
The fighters retreated as fast as they could, while lengthening the distance between them.
"Whew! Call! ”
Another whistling came.
I saw the second wave of cold air mass, rushing through the wind and sand.
But.
The second wave of cold air attacks missed.
Team Zhang's reaction was fast, the speed of the fighters was fast enough, and the performance of the battle armor was strong enough, and he retreated more than sixty meters in just two seconds.
The cold air mass flashed and hit the sand twenty meters in front of everyone, and a large piece of cold ice condensed in an instant.
Meanwhile.
The fighters also discovered the enemy's position.
Team Zhang was gritting his teeth and roaring: "There is a group of bedbugs hiding in the waist of the sand dunes over there, and they will be killed by portable soldiers for labor and management!" ”
The so-called "portable Xuanbing" is a newly developed miniature Xuanbing, which can be carried by a single soldier and has a maximum range of two kilometers.
Each six-man warrior squad comes standard with four portable Xuan soldiers, and the first platoon includes three squads, carrying a total of twelve portable Xuan soldiers.
Soon.
"Woo! Woo! ”
A scream rang out.
Six Xuan soldiers were launched.
With a long tail flame in tow, they volleyed through six huge parabolas and swooped down diagonally from above, hitting their target area accurately.
"Boom! Rumble! ”
A chain of explosions rang out.
Blazing flames engulfed the target area in an instant.
However.
The battle is not over.
Some of the bugs escaped from the fire.
Team Zhang was murderous: "Kill all the bedbugs!" ”
A group of warriors swept over quickly, waving their right hand and throwing their short spears at them.
On frontal combat.
With the advantage of their equipment, the warriors are significantly stronger than ordinary catastrophic insects.
Not much.
This batch of bugs has been killed.
Subsequently.
Only then did the warriors notice that the horses were waiting for the others to die.
Luo Jun's expression was gloomy.
Previously, the horse team was making fun of him, saying that he "squatted on the ground and defecated in the open", and he was quite upset.
How he wished that the horses were smiling and joking with themselves, no matter how bad the joke was.
Team Zhang was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "Death on the battlefield is the fate of every soldier!" ”
He then raised his voice: "Check the bug corpse right now, and report back to the outpost, I suspect it's a new bug." ”
"Yes!"
A group of people answered.
The warriors cautiously approached and began to observe the insect corpses.
Judging by their appearance, this batch of bugs is a catastrophe borer.
However, their tail is no longer a scorpion-like needle tail, but a bony carapace shaped like a flower.
The surface of the nail piece naturally has strange textures.
Luo Jun immediately had a guess: "This should be a mutant borer, and their tails can shoot out cold air masses." ”
This conjecture was unanimously agreed.
Team Zhang glanced at the black insect corpse and ordered, "Cut off a tail and bring it back." ”
He turned his head to look at Luo Jun: "You come to report to the outpost." ”
Luo Jun did as he said.
A minute later.
The debriefing is over.
Captain Fan took this matter very seriously and said that he would report to the outpost tower immediately.
Team Zhang didn't delay any longer, and waved his right hand: "Let's go." ”
With his head held high, he led the way forward, just as the horses had done before.
Luo Jun walked a few steps and couldn't help but glance back.
The soldiers, frozen into ice sculptures, stood motionless, as if to see off their colleagues.
Luo Jun muttered in his heart, "The destination of a soldier is the battlefield", and his steps became more determined.
In the rear of the crowd.
Next to the corpses of the swarm.
A large number of filaments popped up again, wrapping up the corpses and dragging them under the sand.
But.
Due to the influence of the cold weather, the speed of the misty sand vine is significantly slower.
When digesting the scorpion's tail, a batch of rattan silk burrowed into the interior and froze to death.
*
The other side.
The frequent appearance of mutant borers naturally attracted Cheng Han's attention.
He made a deduction and traced the origin of the insect corpse as a correlation, and found that this batch of insects came from another small world in the Southern Far Realm Group.
The name of the world is - Glacial Realm.
The results show that there is a world full of countless glaciers.
After entering the glacial realm, the cataclysmic insect swarm absorbed the bloodlines of the creatures in that realm and evolved this ability to project cold air masses.
In a way, this is also a gifted trait.
Cheng Han pointed to the picture on the light curtain and took the opportunity to teach pan-consciousness: "Appropriate mutation is very important, it can make the species more adaptable to the environment and more viable. ”
The big sand ant shook its tentacles and cried out a few times in a happy and sincere way: "Squeak! Chirping! ”
It's saying, "Friend, you're very right.
The fact that he saw it with his own eyes made it fully accept the view that "more seed mutation should be stimulated".
Cheng Han waved his hand and plucked the strings of the law.
"Hum~"
There was a soft thud.
The rhythm of the law then springs up.
The light curtain changed in an instant.
A tuft of vine silk popped up, and some seeds sprouted from the surface.
The seeds took root and grew white vines.
They directly wrapped the cold scorpion tail, burrowed into the flesh through the cracks in the carapace, and began to absorb nutrients diligently.
"Squeak?"
The big sand ant squealed curiously.
Cheng Han explained with a smile: "I implanted them with a cold-resistant chain of life fragment, so that they have a cold-resistant mutation. ”
The big sand ant shook its tentacles with a thoughtful look.
The pan-consciousness lacks the cognition of the chain of life, and if it is allowed to lead the mutation, it may not be fruitful to toss for a few years, so he can only do it himself.
And he has studied the chains of life of many species, and he has countless chains of life in his head, and he can solve the problem by picking a few fragments at random.
On the other hand.
After mastering the strings of the law, he can modify and cut the chain of life as he pleases.
Unlike before, he needed to use a variety of powerful secret methods to implant the Chain of Life fragment.
Cheng Han said: "In the next period of time, I will help you understand different chains of life, and you can create more mutant species in the future." ”
The big sand ant screamed happily: "Squeak! ”
Mutation is an extremely trivial task that requires a lot of energy and time, but this matter is related to the condensation of the third law string.
Leaving this job to the big sand ants is the best choice.
The better the sand ant did, the more prosperous the life in this realm, and the sooner he could condense the third law string.
In a word.
This can be regarded as fooling a "long-term worker".
Cheng Han raised his head to look at the sky and muttered softly: "The second wave of time and space is about to arrive, and this time the plan is almost time to close the net." ”
The tentacles on the head of the big sand ant shook quite violently, looking extremely expectant.
Because the second wave of space-time sac means the second wave of nourishment.
This will make a leap forward in the number of misty vines, and it will be one step closer to the will of the world.
Cheng Han turned his head to look at the big sand ant and made a gesture: "Let's start!" ”
"Squeak!"
The big sand ant replied loudly.
In order to deal with this battle, Cheng Han prepared more than one means.
It's just that out of the strategy of luring the enemy into depth, he can't take it out for the time being, and can only sit back and watch the soldiers pay huge casualties.
To this point.
More space-time sacs were already approaching the Misty Sand Realm, and he could take out the means.
