17 Mystic Caves

Lu Chen glanced at the swarm of cruising locusts on the radar.

There are not many of them, hundreds of them, all of them are one-star interstellar locusts, and they are not the target locations for scavenging tips.

But the direction in which these locusts fly is exactly the direction of the target suggested by the scavenging guide!

Warning level C-, scavenging level C+...... Both the risks and benefits are far beyond this swarm of locusts.

"Obviously, there really are female locusts!"

However, with Lu Chen's current three-star armor force, it can almost cope with an ordinary C-level warning.

Based on past experience, the process may not be easy, you may be injured, you may lose money, but at least you can escape.

If it is usual, road dust will usually stay away from the C-level target of the C-level warning, and it will lose 100% of the money.

But if the target is a female locust, you can catch the foggy starfish as bait to fish for shadowless whales, but you can give it a try.

What's more, this time the risk is only C-level, and it is not up to the level of ordinary C-level.

As for the chaos on the Fog Sea Star, the winner has not yet been decided, and he is not qualified to appear to pick up corpses.

If the Shadowless Whale is caught, he can at least catch a female locust and go back to build a hive factory to produce corrosives or industrial products such as Blue Moon Toilet Washers......

"Quietly follow."

"Yes, Captain!"

The Dalyan then turned off its radar and went into silence.

After six or seven hours of flying with the cruising locusts, they flew to the Watson star system and landed on a forested asteroid.

Scavenging target, not far in front of the landing site!

Before Lu Chen got off the boat, he was discovered by the swarm.

In a dark and dull forest.

As soon as the Dalyan landed in a hidden canyon, it was surrounded by thousands of interstellar locusts!

Dense flying locusts, covering the sky and the sun, seemed to be organized, and rushed towards the Dalyan.

Xiao Ai immediately filled up the defensive formation.

Suddenly, the surface of the spaceship crackled like hailstones, and fires lit up one after another.

The shell of the locust was burned to ashes, and the blue-black blood flew away, and it was evaporated into a gaseous state by the high-energy formation.

"Ban Yue's defense has worked."

Unfortunately, there are too many locusts......

Although most of the locusts didn't even reach the one-star level, they crashed into each other for more than ten minutes, and there was no tendency to stop, constantly consuming the spiritual energy of the spaceship.

At the same time, the evaporated blue blood mist enveloped the hull, which, at high temperatures, had a certain corrosiveness to the hull.

The Dalyan was forced to lift off and fly out of the atmosphere.

However, the locusts still chased unrelentingly into space, and swept the ship.

"The hull will only last for half an hour at most, and it will reach a tipping point, captain, do you want to leave this asteroid?"

Road Dust is also helpless, these locusts are useless against the new Scavenger armor, but they do hurt the Daryan.

He had to disembark to find his target, and in the face of C-class risk, the ship had to be picked up nearby so that he could run away at any time.

But in this way, the ship will inevitably be hit by the locust swarm.

Looking at the billions of locusts outside the spaceship that were like moths to a fire, ignorant of fear and pain, Lu Chen couldn't help but recall the last scene of the drama version of "The Three-Body Problem" in his previous life.

"They seem to have forgotten the fact that we humans are three-body people who are insects, that is, insects have never been truly defeated."

This sentence is as true as this world.

Under the blows of human cultivation technology, the nomadic zerg survived strongly, calling for wind and rain in the edge star field, becoming one of the four major calamities of the new era.

The little interstellar locust was stunned by Lu Chen, a three-star spiritual mechanic, and he had nowhere to exert his skills.

"If there is a beast master on my ship, can I suffer such a grievance? No, it's the insect master......"

Wait a minute!

Lu Chen suddenly turned his head and looked at Hei Si who was lying on the automatic massage chair.

Doesn't this civet cat have the talent of the spirit?

Soul Master, the general name of a class of professions closest to ancient cultivators, mainly uses spiritual power to control foreign objects, including beast masters, insect masters, spirit planters, mages, and all kinds of guardians.

Prior to this, Black Misty decided that the interstellar locust could be used to fish for beluga whales, and it was obvious that he had the talent of a beastmaster!

"Hei Xi, whether you can eat beluga whale barbecue this time depends on you."

Hei Si pretended to be dead and continued to sleep.

Lu Chen, who was not used to her, grabbed the back of Hei Xi's neck and lifted him up, and threw him out of the spaceship from the back cabin.

Of course, if Kuro didn't have this talent, he would immediately open his armor and go out to save her.

Hearing only an annoyed meow, Black Silly jumped onto the top of the ship, found a comfortable position, and fell asleep again.

Lu Chen was about to scold her, but was surprised to find that the impact of the locust swarm gradually became sparse......

In the blink of an eye, it all dissipated and retreated into the jungle.

"I didn't eat my food in vain!"

Lu Chen excitedly ran to the rear cabin, got into the new scavenger armor, and jumped off the spaceship.

Dalyan hovered over the asteroid forest.

Driving the scavenger armor, Lu Dust flew over the jungle and quickly locked onto the target's location.

Leap down and land in a dark valley.

Scavenger armor wields chainsaws through the valley and slashes down dense trees to quickly find a cave entrance.

The cave is surprisingly large, and even has a regular square stone arch that is large enough for scavengers to armour.

"Can the Zerg still build arches?"

Lu Chen was particularly surprised.

At the same time, in the jungle outside the arch, countless swarms of locusts surrounded the scavenger armor and let out a squirming chirp, but none of them dared to step forward, and there was no more courage to storm the ship before.

"It seems that these bugs are not stupid, they know that brainless collisions are useless against three-star armor."

Looking back at the stone arch, it always feels like a trap.

Armored radar began to scan the interior of the cavern, detecting a certain degree of mechanical reaction.

"Zerg can also drive spaceships?"

Reconfirm the warning level: C-level, unchanged.

"Xiao Ai, drive the spaceship to my diagonal top, keep a distance of five hundred meters, and cover at all times."

"Yes, Captain!"

After the Dalyan flew into the designated airspace, Lu Chen resolutely walked into the cave.

Dense swarms of locusts followed him in, as if to block his path.

However, in front of his laser cannon, no one on the planet can stop his way.

Entering the cave, the road ahead quickly divided into three narrow paths.

Road dust chooses the middle road.

If you walk upright, bend over.

The road is hard, and he can't learn to bend over, so he flies automatically in the cave in a superhuman flying position.

Soon, the armor flew into an empty chamber.

Lu Chen stood upright, and after positioning, he found that this was the inner center of a mountain, and it was the most difficult to get out of trouble.

The atmosphere was a little weird, and a little weirdly normal.

It's so normal that it doesn't look like a wormhole.

Lu Chen's chest searchlight was turned on.

Only then did it become clear that there was a rusty old three-wing combat ship in front of him, stuck diagonally in the dirt.

The shell was partially damaged, part of it was heavily corroded, and although the engine was not broken, the model was too old, and it was full of insect eggs, which was badly corroded, and there was no longer any value for recycling.

There is also a rift on the side of the spaceship that looks like it has been pierced by a giant sword, and nuclear radiation is detected inside......

The item identification of the Scavenging Guide is displayed as:

[A crashed three-star battleship, from an empire 1,200 years ago, caused a large area of nuclear radiation due to the leakage of a nuclear warhead. 】

"Strange, 1,200 years ago, the first dragonborn humanoid rebels had not revolted against the rule of the Empire, and the interstellar pirates were far less prevalent than they are now, and the engines were intact before, and a three-star Imperial battle ship could not be injured by these locust swarms, why would it crash easily? Could it be that there are battle locusts strong enough to pierce the shell of an Imperial three-star battleship? ”

Lu Chen was very curious, so he piloted the armor, entered the narrow cockpit of the spaceship, and removed the smart core board in the control panel.

The control pattern on the surface has been corroded, but the chip memory inside is still intact.

Lu Chen jumped out of the spaceship, connected the chip memory to the bracelet decoder, and read the data that had not been lost.

According to the flight log, the ship's captain, Alexei, is a flying and armored knight with excellent character and flying skills, but he is discriminated against because he has a quarter of the Zerg blood, even if he was appointed as the captain of a ship, even the crew did not obey his orders, and formed a temporary committee of the ship to override his powers, leaving him only responsible for flying.

Bizarrely, this decision was agreed to by the superiors, on the grounds that the intelligence of the worms may not be suitable for emergency decision-making.

One day, passing by the Cisse Star Field, the spacecraft found a swarm of interstellar locusts passing by, and the Provisional Committee tried to tease Alexei and ask him to attack and destroy the locust swarm, but Alexei refused to carry out the order on the grounds that the mission was urgent and the interstellar locust swarm did not harm humans.

Suddenly!

The dense swarm of locusts rushed into the cave, blocking the armored searchlights and making a regular rustling sound, seriously interfering with the armored radar.

A pitch-black figure slowly approached......

Fortunately, the road dust was expected.

At this moment, he suddenly turned around, held a lightsaber, and slashed off the head of the black shadow with a single sword.

With a sonorous bang, the huge mecha head fell to the ground.

Densely packed, half-human, half-worm monsters, crawling out of the neck of the armor.
