142 Death Spider
"It's ...... It's all covered in spider silk! Huo Qiangyin stood by the porthole and looked down, and after distinguishing what the white substance was, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock.
Xiao Di and a few people also came to the porthole to look down.
At this time, the mushroom cloud below was gradually dissipating, and the true appearance of the explosion site was revealed to everyone.
I saw that in the white forest building covered with spider silk, a huge black pit was emitting smoke upward.
A huge eight-legged spider was lying at the bottom of the pit, and its huge and bulging belly had broken a big hole at this time, and countless translucent spiders flowed out of the broken egg sack under it, and one by one they were covered in brown slime.
Even after a considerable distance, Xiao Di could clearly see that there were still countless small spiders wriggling under the thin egg bag skin.
"It's disgusting!" Ling Wei obviously saw the situation below clearly, and looked away after a few snorts.
"There are still no landing coordinates on the ground." Lin Huang was in the driver's seat, frowning and waiting for a reply from the ground command office.
However, as time passed, there was still no response from the ground command office.
At this moment, everyone saw an even larger spider suddenly emerge from under the thick and sticky silk, and ran madly towards the spider whose skin was blown apart.
In the meantime, the intensive bombardment reappeared, directly towards the giant spider that suddenly appeared.
But the giant spider seemed to be completely unconcerned about the dense bombardment, running wildly with eight long legs, and the spinning device on its back belly spewed out spider silk frantically.
The spider silk was like a dense web, covering the source of the artillery fire.
Xiao Di saw that the dense artillery fire stopped for a moment, and at the same time, the giant spider had already rushed to the dead spider, and kept gouging the small spiders that flowed to the ground with its four claws, trying to restrain it on itself.
The little spiders seemed to understand that their mother was dead, and sensing the presence of another adult spider, they began to crawl on the giant spider.
But in the blink of an eye, the giant spider's body was covered with translucent spiders, and it was obvious that its body was pressed and sunk.
"I can't take it anymore!" Huo Qiangyin turned his head away, holding his chest and not letting himself spit out.
Yu Qiandeng's face was not very good-looking, and he hugged his goosebumpy arm and returned to the cabin.
Xiao Di and Zhi Ge were unimpressed, and were even closely observing the giant spider's every move.
"There's a reply from the command office." Lin Huang received instructions from the command office, and immediately drove the flying ship to a high-rise building that was not yet covered by spider silk.
The flying ship hovered on the top floor of the building, and as soon as Xiao Di and a few people jumped off the flying ship, they saw a man and a woman standing not far away and waving to them.
Lin Huang put away the flying ship, and everyone walked in front of the two people.
"Sorry, it's late. I am Peng An, the director of the institute. Peng An stretched out his hand to Xiao Di.
Xiao Di stretched out his hand and shook him gently, which was regarded as a greeting.
"Let's go in and talk." The female research institute next to her introduced herself: "I am Lin Tian, the deputy director. ”
Several people followed Peng An and Lin Tian into the building.
Xiao Di saw that a few people had just stepped into the building with their front feet, and Lin Tian had opened the defense level of the entire building to the highest level with their back feet.
They took off their protective clothing inside the security door, and only then did they reveal their true faces.
Peng An has black hair and black eyes, delicate and elegant.
He has a strong scholarly temperament, rational and detached but very polite, and his attitude towards Xiao Di is neither humble nor arrogant.
Lin Tian's complexion was very rich red, her eyes were dark and bright, her atrium was long, and there was obviously no blood of the ancient earth on her body.
"First of all, thank you very much for coming." Peng An bowed to a few people, and then led everyone into a downward elevator.
"To tell you the truth, there are only twenty-three people left in our institute on the entire planet, and eighteen natives we have taken in." "We are running out of weapons and resources, and there are two main reasons why we didn't leave here. One is that the rescue of the Federation and the Empire has been delayed, and the other is that the new mecha we are developing has not yet been completed and cannot be taken away. ”
Peng An sighed, "I wanted to wait for the army to come and ask them to assist us in taking away the unfinished mecha, but as you have all seen, they have given up on us." ”
Although the situation was already so pessimistic, Peng An and Lin Tian did not look depressed when they spoke.
"When developing this planet, both the Federation and the Empire benefited from it, but after the resources were extracted, both of them tacitly kept silent about our subsequent development, and with the appearance of the 'Grim Reaper', they didn't want to care about us anymore." Lin Tianping said straightforwardly.
Zhige's brow furrowed as he listened, but he was not surprised by the actions of the Empire and the Federation.
That's what they are.
Selfishness, hypocrisy.
With a "ding", the elevator stopped on the 28th floor.
When everyone stepped out of the elevator, they saw that in the open level, more than 30 people were sitting or standing, and their bodies were more or less injured.
Some of them were wrapped in a layer of white spider silk, and their heavy protective clothing was corroded by spider silk and cracks were opened, and the blood-red flesh was gurgling outward.
Some of them were missing arms and legs, and they were being carried by their companions to the medical cabin.
"The swarm just attacked the institute again, and several of our companions were dragged away by them, and we couldn't get them back." Peng An's face was solemn.
The people in the hall saw Peng An and Lin Tian coming back with Xiao Di and a few people, and they turned their heads to look at them.
At that glance, Xiao Di didn't see joy in their eyes, only exhaustion and despair.
Peng An sighed and led a few people to the next conference room to sit down.
"Admiral, long time no see." As soon as he sat down, Peng An nodded to Zhige.
Zhi Ge naturally didn't remember where he had seen Peng An, so he could only nod to him as well.
Peng An is a very direct character, and after greeting him, he said directly: "The mecha we studied is almost finished, and I was worried that there is no high-level spiritual power to drive, but with you, I believe that mecha will be perfectly linked to your spiritual power." ”
Before Zhi Ge could speak, Huo Qiangyin over there had already opened his mouth curiously.
"Can I go and see your mechas, I have also made some mechs before, but they have all been aborted because there is no follow-up resource support." Huo Qiangyin began to talk about the expertise in mecha manufacturing.
The more Peng An listened, the brighter his eyes became, and finally he went directly to the laboratory with Huo Qiangyin.
Lin Tian said to everyone a little helplessly: "Our director loves mecha the most, and when I talk about this, it's a little ...... Don't be surprised. ”
"Then please tell us about the nature of the Grim Reaper." Xiao Di to Lin Tiandao.
Lin Tian pulled up a map from the terminal and unfolded it in front of everyone.
