Chapter 167: Beheading the King Worm
The killer bug was a little blindsided by the sudden attack. Then came the rage.
Humans have fought back before, but it is rare for them to break into the swarm with just a few people. This was a serious provocation for the swarm, and the already tyrannical bugs immediately became angry, and the killer bugs on the periphery did not care about the same kind in the middle, and immediately launched the most violent attack.
However, the killer bug has a weakness that is not a weakness, that is, the fastest rate of fire of the spine needle is one second and three seconds, and the relative velocity of the target cannot exceed one hertz, otherwise the killer bug's shot cannot be aimed at all. Therefore, most of the time, the killer bug's attack targets are human defensive positions, or things like mecha swarms and fighters that are in suspense. And the Zero God of War system gives Team Zero a minimum of three hertz, and the burst speed is ten hertz, and if the killer worm wants to hit the worm Tifa them, he has to use the saturation cover strike.
However, in the case of a small number of worms, 99% of the targets hit by the saturated coverage strike are of the same kind.
This kind of attack is that it is possible to attract counterattacks if it is replaced by humans, not to mention that the insect itself is an extremely tyrannical type, in the face of such an attack, the killer insect in the inner circle launched a counterattack without thinking about it.
Suddenly, the entire Killer Insect Phalanx was in chaos.
Tifa and the others took advantage of this opportunity to continue killing killer bugs.
However, Xiao Ming has been standing at the center point, looking like he is ready to stand by and watch.
The chaos of the Killer Insect Phalanx lasted less than ten minutes, and suddenly a dull whistle-like sound came out of the ground, and the entire Killer Insect Phalanx suddenly fell silent.
"I really can't help it!" Xiao Ming opened his eyes at the same time. His gaze seemed to penetrate the thick stratum and looked at a huge caterpillar two hundred meters underground.
Because Jelly had to fully operate the camp defense system, Xiao Ming didn't use Variety. However, this did not affect his abilities, and after the reorganization of his soul, he was no longer limited by any weapons. The gorgeous and dazzling wings of ice and fire stretched out behind him, and the wings of ice and fire, which were once like butterfly wings, were now transformed into the structure of the Demon Dragon Wings, as if to cope with the size of the Zero God of War system at this time, the wings of ice and fire also turned into huge wings with a wingspan of fifteen meters.
The wings spread, and the wings of fire waved. A huge flaming broadsword appeared in mid-air and slammed into the ground. The surrounding killer insects were directly vaporized before they even had time to scream. An ice gun was formed in the same position as the ice wings, which plunged directly into the ground.
The ground, which had been burned red by the fire knife, froze again. The extreme temperature difference made the earth crack, and a crack ten meters long and two meters wide, I don't know how deep it was, appeared in front of Xiao Ming.
Xiao Ming and other cracks appeared. Hands up. The moon wheels formed by countless lightning bolts flew out of his hands like a swarm of bees out of the nest, swarming into the cracks.
The dull sound rang out again, and the earth shook like an earthquake, and then there was a thud, and a huge caterpillar burst out of the ground.
In fact, this is not a caterpillar, but a five-star kingworm-level bug with a fairly high status among land insects. It is called Bob worm, also known as the infected. It doesn't have any combat power or defense. But it has three of the most terrifying abilities.
First, it is the direct leader of the lower bugs, and if the swarm is considered an army, then the Bob bug is equivalent to the position of the front finger of the battle line. The order of the first-level brood is conveyed through all the king insects of the same level as the Bob worm, and the combat behavior of the bugs is also under the most direct command of the king worm.
Second, although the Bobu Worm itself does not have any attack power and defense ability, and its movement speed is not fast, it is highly poisonous all over its body, and it will kill an idler if it gets a little bit of it, and the deadly toxin sprayed out under the madness cannot even withstand the insects.
Thirdly, and the most feared by the Bob worm, and the reason for its full name as the Infected, it can eject a special neurotoxin that infects living beings, eventually making infected organisms its puppets. In the former battlefield of human insects, there were often tragic situations where swaths of human warriors were controlled into puppets and then counterattacked the human defense line.
And it is also the ability of the Bob Worm that allows humans to vigorously develop the battlefield defense system, and finally triggers the photon revolution more than 50 years ago, making the miniaturized photon protective cover a reality, and finally ending the embarrassing situation that the Bob Worm must retreat as soon as it appears on the battlefield to a certain extent.
Bob bugs tend to move underground, but they can't penetrate too hard rocks. Team Zero's camp was littered with rocks that were so hard that some of them should have been alloyed at all. Therefore, the Bob bug can only move underground with dirt more than 3,000 meters away.
However, this Bobu worm definitely didn't know that Xiao Ming's real purpose in killing them was to deal with it.
The swarm has an extremely strict hierarchy, and the control of the upper insects over the lower insects is absolute, and fighting each other can only occur between the insects of the same level. And if a king worm is killed, it will cause confusion among the anterior line worms. This is the same as the human army. It's just that human beings have a complete command system replacement plan, and unless all the officers in the entire command post are killed, it is impossible to cause too much chaos.
But bugs are different, because bugs have a connection of consciousness and a sea of spirits, so they don't need a complex command system, what a king bug can accomplish, for bugs, there is no need for another king bug. After all, bugs between peers will kill situations.
So once the king bug on the bug front line is killed, you need to send another king bug from behind, and this one takes time. It was a good respite for Team Zero. Their ultimate task is to attract enough bugs to the vicinity of Sirius, preferably the brood that is responsible for searching the airspace near Sirius, and when the time comes to detonate the entire Coburius, there is hope that this first-level brood will also be pitted.
So the more tenacious they fight now, the more they will be able to absorb the attention of the bugs. Anyway, taking advantage of the fact that the insects will not launch a saturation fire shot if they have no choice, and some of the zero team is tossing.
As soon as the Bob Bug appeared, it immediately spewed out a miserable green poisonous mist, and the surrounding killer bugs and spider bugs also frantically wanted to squeeze over to protect the Bob bug.
But the killer insects and spider insects were blocked by Tifa and others, and they couldn't rush in for a while, even if they rushed in a few occasionally, they couldn't become any climate, Xiao Ming knew the souls of these inferior insects clearly when he was infected with Hama Kuba, and now these inferior insects didn't pose any threat to him at all, and a single thought could slaughter the soul of the other party, so that it couldn't turn over any flowers, if it weren't for the soul killing trick that consumed too much soul power, it couldn't fight for a long time. In addition, Xiao Ming's current move is only effective against war insects, and Xiao Ming can complete the attack mission alone.
Xiao Ming knew that it was impossible for Tifa and the others to hold on for too long, so he didn't dare to delay any longer, and when he saw the Bobu worm appear, he let out a clear drink, spread his wings of ice and fire, and rushed over directly.
The Bob Worm can't get the support of the lower bugs, and its fat body can't even talk about dodging when it's on the ground, and the attack power itself has no attack. The only means is highly toxic and can control the neurotoxins in people. But the sad thing is that Xiao Ming's Zero God of War weapon system has a starship-level photon shield, and before the photon shield is broken, it has no effect on whether it is highly poisonous or neurotoxin.
But Xiao Ming's wings of ice and fire are not something that Bobu worms can bear, not to mention that the wings of fire also contain dark fire that can be broken down in anything except space and time.
So when Xiao Ming pounced, the Bobu worm made a dull cry, and there was no more action, and it was directly cremated by Xiao Ming without even a little resistance, and the ice wing first froze the fat caterpillar, and then the fire wing rolled over, and the invisible dark fire broke out in the red flame, burning the Bobu worm to the ground.
Bob insects died quite unjustly, although insects can't hide their souls, but they are good at connecting their souls, so that although Xiao Ming can find insects, but they can't do accurate positioning, if a small number of insects arrive in the human-dominated environment of the camp, there is no problem with soul searching, but if they are in the swarm, Xiao Ming will not be able to accurately locate them.
But once the Bobu Worm began to directly command the swarm to act, it would be different, Xiao Ming could reverse track it according to the fluctuations of the soul connection, and finally determine the location of the Bob Worm.
As soon as the Bob bug died, all the spider bugs and killer bugs on the front line immediately became a mess. Some bugs wanted to continue attacking the camp, but others wanted to kill Xiao Ming and the others, and the locations of these bugs were not together, so the bugs on the front line were completely messed up. And this is a great reduction in pressure on the camp's defensive fire network, and the efficiency has skyrocketed.
"It's time, let's go!" After Xiao Ming killed the Bo Bu Worm, he had completed the task of this sortie, and if he didn't leave at this time, he wouldn't be able to leave for a while.
Iomme and Radon immediately changed the direction of the charge, instead charging in the direction of the camp, while Tifa and Ilti jumped directly on Iomo and Radon respectively, helping the two of them kill the bugs that stood in the way, Chidori didn't care about her, she wanted to leave, and the bugs here were not qualified to stop her. But she kept around the perimeter of the group, and whenever she saw danger, she went to support there.
Xiao Ming was broken, his wings of ice and fire were furious, and he blocked ninety percent of the pursuing troops behind him alone.
The firepower network on the camp side was naturally taken care of on this side, and the people in the camp were not idle, and all those who could attack launched an attack, and the chaotic insects were completely suppressed for a while. (To be continued......)
