Chapter 124: The Fight Begins
Seeing Xiao Ming and Hydra come back together, the warriors only felt that their brains were a little insufficient. Didn't you say that you were going to go out and work hard? What kind of desperate thing is this now?
"What is this for? are we working with this freak?" said Podol, who was a little at a turn.
"If it's really a collaboration, then it should be called Hydra. High-level Star Beasts, like humans, don't like to be called freaks by others!" Remidios said seriously.
Podol was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "That makes sense, but I'm still a little uncomfortable, weren't we still working hard before?"
"Then let's listen to what Xiao Ming has to say. I trust his judgment!" said Rimidios.
"Good!" Podor nodded.
"Let's go, let's go and see what this fraudster said to make Xiao Ming believe it!" Douglas was also interested.
In fact, they don't have much choice. Hydra's strength is obvious to all, Xiao Ming and Remidios are indeed stronger than Hydra when they join forces, but it is definitely not possible to kill Hydra, who is almost immortal, in a short period of time. And during this time, no one can really guarantee whether the tough guy troops can survive it. Just talking about the earth-shattering explosion just now, Xiao Ming and Remidios have to admit that there is already a lot of luck in keeping the entire tough guy army alive.
Therefore, cooperation became the only option. Unless the tough-guy forces are ready to fight Hydra to the death, which would have been an inevitable choice if Hydra was still on the side of the bugs, but now that Hydra is no longer at the service of the bugs, cooperation is possible.
Remidios, Douglas, and Podol left the control room of the command center and came to the open space in front of the ruins of the base, and Xiao Ming and Hydra also arrived in front of the ruins of the base. As a sign of sincerity, Hydra lowered all nine of his heads.
"Hello, the strong man of the human race!" Although his personality has changed a lot, he is a former super-level star beast, and now he is a high-level star beast (ten stars are super rank, and nine stars are high-level). Its arrogance is still there, so it just took the initiative to greet Remidios, and did not say anything to Douglas and Podol, of course, there was no hostility or contempt, just pretending not to see it.
"Hello, Miss Hydra, it seems that you and Xiao Ming have reached an agreement. I will fully support Xiao Ming's decision, so you don't have to waste any more time on me. But we are a group. Standing in front of you now is the commander of this group. General Douglas and Captain Podol, you really need to convince them!" Remidios smiled faintly. There is no G-class powerhouse at all.
"Oh, aren't you the Supreme Commander, what a surprise to me!" Hydra looked at Remidios in some surprise, then turned to look at Douglas and Podol, "I'm sorry, I was rude, two commanders!"
Douglas and Podol looked at each other, and then Douglas said, "Mighty Hydra, I'm curious, why do you want to work with us?"
Hydra repeated what he had said to Xiao Ming, and then said, "The reptiles will soon know that I have escaped their control. So you need to make a decision quickly, otherwise once the matter is exposed. Me and these two strong men can survive, but you will be very dangerous. You must know that under the reptilian sea tactics, even the king of the star beast does not dare to guarantee that he can protect everyone!"
Douglas nodded and looked at Xiao Ming: "Do you believe it?"
Xiao Ming said: "Yes! General!"
"If you believe it, then I will believe it too!" he turned his head to look at Hydra, "Mighty Hydra." Now that you've convinced Xiao Ming and Remidios, we don't have any reason to refuse. If you think we need to get started right away, let's get started!"
Hydra brought the huge head of the snake in front of Douglas, and the hideous fangs gleamed in front of Douglas: "You believe me?"
Douglas shook his head: "I really can't judge and trust the former fraudsters, but I believe in Xiao Ming and Remidios. Since they believe in you. I'll try to trust you, too!"
Hydra raised his head again: "It seems that you have a very special affection for these two little guys!"
"Yes!" Douglas did not deny at all.
"Well, all of you can come to my back, and my body can be transformed to create an area that is big enough for you to ride and fight. Come on, humans, we don't have much time!" Hydra lowered the snake's tail, the scales on the tail becoming like a ladder, "You can come up, those fighting machines won't do." I can't fight with them yet!"
In the midst of the explosion just now, Remidios protected a Thor. Originally, Big Mouth was going to bring Thor with him, but now when he heard Hydra say this, he looked at Podor with some embarrassment.
"You don't have to bring it. Our role in the next battle will be low. Our mission is to protect ourselves, as long as we don't cause trouble to Xiao Ming and them!" Douglas could see the situation very well. I understand that if it weren't for them, Xiao Ming and Remidios would actually have a lot of choices, and they wouldn't be like this.
Although the fighters of the tough guy unit felt that it was too unbelievable to suddenly turn from enemies to friends with Hydra and work together to kill the worm mother of the ghost star, as Douglas said, the entire tough guy team had a very high trust in Xiao Ming and Remidios, and after knowing that this was Xiao Ming and Remidios's decision, they no longer had any hesitation and quickly boarded Hydra's back.
At the highest point of Hydra's back, the scales and muscles there changed to look like a battle fortress, with walls and zeniths, and plenty of firing emplacements.
As soon as the warriors entered, they stood in various battle positions, without any gesture of looking around, as if in their eyes, Hydra was their comrade-in-arms, without the slightest suspicion.
"You can't get that kind of fighting machine, but you can bring more power blocks and weapons. Hydra seemed pleased with the warriors' reaction, and abruptly changed his tune to Hyglas, "Also. Don't underestimate your power. I am well aware of the kind of miraculous power you possess that I have when I was your enemy!"
Douglas looked at Hydra and finally nodded: "Xiao Ming is right, you are completely different from the legend. Looks like I can really trust you!"
"Humans are such an interesting group. Hopefully we can have a good time together!" Hydra laughed.
Although it is still a behemoth after being shrunk several times, Hydra's voice is surprisingly closer to the girl's voice, especially when it laughs, it is surprisingly good.
"Humans. Your name is Xiao Ming?" Hydra looked at Xiao Ming with another head.
"Yes!" Xiao Ming nodded.
"What's your relationship with her?" Hydra nodded with his other head, nodding at Remy Dios, who was standing not far away and talking to Douglas.
"Family!" Xiao Ming said.
"Wife?" Hydra looked rather gossipy.
"No!" Xiao Ming shook his head.
"Don't you really want to talk to me? Or have you not been silent in the first place?" Hydra seemed a little sad: "I have been lonely all these years under the control of the reptiles, and I have no one to talk to, do you know how it feels? It's been too long, how many years? A thousand years? Or two thousand years?"
"You were wiped out in the final days of the Dark Ages of Star Beasts. If you had been controlled by the insect infection at that time, it would have been two thousand years by now!" Xiao Ming didn't say that it was okay, and he was shocked when he said it. If only he himself had been trapped in the depths of the spirit world, like Hydra, though he knew what was going on outside. But he can't be completely awake, he can't control his body, and after two thousand years, it will definitely make a person go crazy and collapse.
"Huh, are you sympathizing with me?" Hydra chuckled.
"No, you don't need to be sympathetic, you just need to be understood. I can now understand the reason for your change. At the same time, I also hope that you can truly live freely in the future. Humanity has changed a lot now, as long as you don't make enemies of humans and hide from the places where humans gather. It's not too difficult. Or you can also find some star beasts or even humans who are willing to live with you. The world is very different now!" Xiao Ming said.
Hydra grinned, revealing a mouthful of hideous fangs. But it seemed to be a kind of smile on its face, and it just listened to it, "Oh, then would you like to live with me? Maybe you can be my knight?" I remember that in my day, the most popular thing humans did was to make the mighty Star Beast their mount. Although my strength has dropped to nine stars now, as long as I have a few decades of recuperation, I can recover to ten stars. Having a ten-star super-rank star beast as a mount should be very majestic, right?"
Xiao Ming shook his head with a wry smile: "I'm sorry." I can't. At least not now. If you can wait for me for a few hundred years, maybe it's okay!"
Hydra's already large snake pupils widened: "How should I understand your words?" Xiao Ming, I feel that you have some secrets to hide. Isn't that good, don't you humans say you have to be honest about making friends, or are you not going to be friends with me?"
Xiao Ming said: "Now is not the time to explain, wait until the matter here is over." I think I should be able to explain it to you, just not right now. Because it's going to affect my most important mission here. That's a task that you have to accomplish even if you have to pay for your life!"
"For her?" Hydra, who had once been called a fraudster, was intellectually high enough to deduce many things, and looked at Remidios to the side.
"Yes!" Xiao Ming nodded naturally.
"Looks like your relationship is very complicated!" Hydra said playfully.
"You'll know in the future, my relationship with her is actually very simple!" Xiao Ming smiled.
Although they were chatting, Hydra had already taken action, and there were nine heads that were convenient, one of its heads chatting with Douglas, one chatting with Xiao Ming, one responsible for walking, and the rest of its heads looked left and right, looking around.
Hydra has only one will, but its will is somewhat like a light brain, which can not only divide the will into nine parts, but also control nine heads. At the same time, its main will can be switched to any head in a millisecond, so doing many things at the same time does not seem chaotic at all.
Hydra was extremely fast, faster than the full speed of the arc, but it was so large that everyone didn't feel it when they sat on it.
After only ten minutes of walking, Hydra took everyone out of the explosion range, and the swarm began to gather again, but perhaps because of the fear of Hydra's presence, it just formed an encirclement from afar, but it was not close, as long as Hydra passed, the swarm would automatically separate and give way.
Soon, Hydra led everyone to the location where the worm mother was, and to the surprise of the tough guy troops, this location was actually not far from the ghost base, but it was blocked by the Nine Stygian Mountains, the highest mountain range of the ghost star.
"Hydra, have you brought the humans to your own snares? Well done, well done!" Hydra had just stopped when he saw a huge mother of worms emerge from the center of the swarm guard.
The mother insect is very peculiar, its general shape is like an enlarged queen, with a huge and fat belly, although the upper body is also oversized, but compared to the hundreds of meters long belly it looks very small.
And the upper body of the mother worm is more like a human than a worm - although this guy doesn't have the slightest human appearance. But the morphological structure is very similar to that of humans. Especially the ugly face on that huge head, which can actually make extremely humane movements.
"Hydra, now you can kill the other humans, hand in the target, and I'll definitely ask the Emperor for your credit!" the Worm Mother laughed and hissed unpleasantly.
The fighters of the Tough Guy unit immediately aimed their weapons at Hydra.
Hydra looked at the people in the tough guy unit, then at Douglas and Podol, "Two commanders, are you ready to do it?"
"Do you mean you're really on the bug side?" said Douglas.
Hydra's nine heads shook together: "Who knows? Am I not a fraudster?"
Douglas looked at Xiao Ming and Remidios, and saw that the two of them looked very calm. He smiled, "Fraudster? What a bad guy to say?"
"Ha, General, that's true!" Podol laughed, then raised his right hand: "Brother!
All the fighters of the tough guy unit opened the insurance of the weapons in their hands!
"Hit me hard!" Bodol yelled.
All the weapons, including the two "punishers" that were removed from Thor, spewed out long tongues of fire at the same time.
In the midst of the dust and smoke, Hydra's roar spread for miles. (To be continued......)
