Chapter 176: The New Scout

A hundred meters away from the sand behind the mercenary Xinding, who was in charge of recording and assessing them, the two shook their heads and sneered, and the two stared at everything expressionlessly.

After a moment of silence, the woman hiding in the gun mecha restrained her smile and said in the communication channel: "The time it takes for the sand-swallowing worm to digest the two-star heavy armor is about fifteen minutes.

It's been five minutes left, and if the newcomers don't ask for help in another five minutes, we'll come to the rescue, and then give them the lowest grade at the beginning of the evaluation, are you okay?"

After the strange insect appeared, it immediately instinctively changed to the two elite mercenary 'shields' in the in-line tactical position, the one with a larger size and a more fierce face heard this, and said hesitantly in a gentle tone that was diametrically opposed to the image: "Before they reached the place where the trial officially began, they encountered the attack of the three-star creatures, and the luck of these newcomers is really too bad."

Because of this, it's not fair to give them the lowest evaluation, Kuaicang, especially the little guy from the low-level civilization planet, his performance can be said to be outstanding, and this assessment may be related to the fate of their lives. ”

"Rock, your kindness is really blowing all the time. The woman nicknamed 'Fast Cannon' sighed and explained helplessly: "I also came from the new stage, of course I know that the performance of newcomers can't be too good."

I gave them the lowest rating not because these guys didn't respond well to a sneak attack, but because they knew they couldn't save their comrades in distress, but they didn't ask us for help for the sake of their trial results.

This kind of quality will really become a member of our 'evolutionary glory' in the future. Can you safely protect them at the 'Resource Star'?"

"Fast cannon said well...", her voice landed, and among the elite mercenaries, in addition to fast artillery, there was another smiling Senerdo. He agreed in the communication band, but after only half a sentence, his tone suddenly became cold and cold. "What a death!"

When he spit out these four words, the surface of the dark silver armor that Senerdo was wearing was covered with metal bumps the size of a baby's fist suddenly burst into a cloud of sparks, and in an instant, all the metal bumps were swung in the gaps, and the powerful centrifugal force composed of the magnetic field lifted his body into the air and soared into the sky.

And just as Senerdo's feet left the sand, a sandworm broke through the sand dune and opened its terrifying black mouth, its fleshy teeth wriggling upward, chasing his toes only to swallow the prey in the slightest.

One hit missed. The sand swallowing worm's half-cut body exposed from the sand was about to retract into the ground again, but unfortunately, although it was a three-star creature, its movements were far more agile than its fat and bloated appearance, but after all, it was not faster than the speed of light.

"Die, monster!" saw Senerdo flying in the sky clenching his fists and roaring loudly to make a downward gesture, and suddenly a dazzling thunderbolt rushed out of his fist and fell from the sky. Straight into the sand swallower's mouth, which was about to hide in the dunes.

Suddenly, the sandworm's body stiffened, and it let out a terrible chirp, and then "poof...", a few sounds like balloon explosions, just after a loud noise countless times louder. A cloud of air ignited by the thunder fire combined with the huge internal organs that adhered to it, and a large fountain of bodily fluids gushed out of the mouth of the sand-swallowing worm.

After landing, the boiling liquid and meat sauce flowing everywhere. A tall humanoid figure was revealed.

"Good luck for you guys, this little worm I killed happens to be the one that attacked you. Go and rescue your companion, and be careful that he doesn't die in the stomach of the sandworm. But he was drowned in the internal organs, then it was a joke. Suspended in the air condescendingly, Senerdo looked at the mercenary Xinding who was rescued by himself, and shouted coldly.

As soon as his words fell, the target on the ground shouted loudly: "I searched for information on the spaceship before I came to Haishaxing, although the sandworm is a three-star creature of the social class, it is very timid, and once an adult family member with hunting ability is killed, it will often lead to the migration of the entire race.

Now that we should be safe, let's go and see how the bears are doing. The fixed turret was re-transformed back into the shape of the gun mecha, and was running towards the pile of rancid liquid in the distance.

With his demonstration, regardless of hypocrisy or sincerity, the other newcomers didn't want to fall into the notoriety of not caring about the life and death of their companions, so they all lifted their guards, and rushed to run towards the mountain bear lying motionless on the sand, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead, only calmed down the wind element in their bodies, and Zhang Muzi, who was slowly descending, walked towards the dead sand-swallowing worm after landing on the ground.

Recalling the lightning that killed the sand swallowing worm just now, there was a faint expression of shock on his face, and he silently thought, "The three-star ability is so powerful through the amplification of evolution-specific equipment, it's really beyond imagination.

It seems that for evolutionists, in addition to their own abilities, the assistance of equipment is also very important, hey, I really know too little about interstellar civilizations, and being born on a planet of lower civilizations is really a weakness...", came to the corpse of the devouring insect, squatted on the ground, and collected a sufficient amount of genetic materials with special instruments.

While Zhang Muzi was collecting the genes of the sand swallowing insects, the mercenaries also peeled off the bear's breastplate and injected the first aid medicine into his thoracic artery.

After more than ten seconds, the mountain bear's gasping voice, which was already weak, gradually became heavy, his tightly closed eyelids rolled and suddenly opened, and he looked at the concerned faces looking down at him in a trance for a while, and muttered incoherently: "Alloy shield, fire man, amphibolite... You guys, why are you all here, are you dead, have you all been killed by monsters..."

In addition to the mountain bear, another evolutionary with pure strength in the team showed a relieved look, smiled and patted the mountain bear on the shoulder and said: "Don't say such frustrating words, buddy, a small three-star creature can't kill us, you have been rescued, wake up." ”

"Alloy Shield, it's a good thing to maintain a good attitude during the expedition, but blind conceit can be dangerous," as soon as his words fell, the fire man beside him suddenly said: "This time the team was attacked by sandworms, and the mountain bear was devoured, if it wasn't for the official team members of the 'Evolution Glory', do you think we could really get out of danger so easily."

This time it was good luck, after the sand swallowing worm ate the mountain bear, it went to provoke the elite mercenary, and was killed by one blow, but in the future, we will have to stay in the sand starfish for dozens of days, do we live by luck every day?"

The words of the Burning Man made the relaxed faces of the mercenary newcomers regain weight, and after a period of silence, the Alloy Shield said with a flickering voice: "Don't you need to be so pessimistic, Burning Man, we are all young two-star evolutionaries, and we are still at the peak of our strength growth."

Well, what's more important is experience, the experience of exploring on the resource star, it is because we lack the necessary exploration experience that we will be so passive when encountering the raid of strange insects, and when the experience increases, it will be natural..."

"You're right, but the question is, if we continue like this, will we still have a chance to increase our strength and experience?" Burning Man interrupted Alloy Shield's words and said in a cold voice, "There is no strategy to deal with the surprise attack;

Without any tactics and no way to do anything, we can still have a chance to increase our strength and experience if we are led by such a captain on an expedition?"

Hearing this, everyone realized that the fire man was expressing their dissatisfaction with the team leader, and their eyes couldn't help but turn to the face of the mutter, who was also squatting beside the mountain bear.

"It was my negligence that I didn't remind everyone to move forward cautiously before encountering the sand-swallowing insects," a trace of shame flashed on her delicate face, and then said expressionlessly, "But the reason why I didn't immediately deploy tactics after that was because I planned to rely on my psychic power to collect information on the enemy's movements first, and then deal with it."

At that point, I don't think I've done anything wrong. ”

"It's a good thing to say now, even if you want to collect information about the enemy and then deal with it, you should organize everyone to defend first. The fire man said again with an unconvinced sneer.

"I just met with you today, and I don't know what everyone's fighting style, combat ability, and ability performance are other than simple personal information, and I can't arrange the right defense system at the first time," Murmur looked around and explained seriously: "In this case, it's safer to let everyone play their own strengths, isn't it?"

In the face of her rhetorical question, even the fire man was speechless for a while, and could only bow his head unwillingly and stop making a sound.

Seeing that no one continued to question, the Murmur, who had resolved the crisis of confidence, stood up, looked at the two suns that were about to disappear into the horizon, and cast his ability to transmit his voice into the hearts of each companion, "Alloy shield, amphibole stone, judging from the injury, it will take at least forty hours for the mountain bear to fully recover, and you will need to bear heavier defensive responsibilities during this time, please be careful."

Burning Man, your ability is more offensive and defensive... It is most appropriate to be a shortstop;

Target, judging from the performance just now, you are better at turret-style strong attack combat... In the future, it will be the focus of the protection of the 'shield';

Earthling, you have quite strong adaptability and quick reflexes, and your combat effectiveness is also the best in our team, originally I thought that Amphibole was the most suitable for the role of forward reconnaissance, but now it seems that you are the most suitable person to become a scout..."

Sensing the captain's orders, the mercenary newcomers re-entered the road after a little tidying up, and the formation had become much more cautious and reasonable, and Zhang Muzi, who was flying at the front of the team with the lightness of the wind, quietly fed the collected sand swallowing insect genes to the mother nest hidden under the armpit, sensing the slight growth of the gene pool, and unconsciously showed a shallow smile on his face.

Unlike his depressed companions, he had just set foot on the land of the 'Resource Star', and he was very satisfied with the small harvest he had made, and he became more looking forward to the future. (To be continued......)
