Chapter 1: The Passage of the Great Worm

Next Chapter

"Lu Ping, that old man of your family is okay, I heard that he helped you hang up in the Heavenly Immortal Mansion, and you can even catch a Nine Turn Back Dragon Pill when fishing. ”

"For the sake of my comrades-in-arms, how about selling it to me? When I break through to the out-of-body stage, the Xuanwu Sect will be able to rank among the second-level sects. ”

Lu Ping, who was on duty, heard the voice of teammate Gu Nianchen in the earphones.

The distance between the two is only three meters, but because they are wearing special protective clothing and helmets, they can only communicate with each other through communication equipment.

Lu Ping turned his head and glanced at Gu Nianchen on the right, and then said, "Don't make small talk when you're on duty." ”

"As long as you are serious all day long, are you tired, I have been on duty in this wilderness for so many years, and nothing has ever happened, just say a few words, and the AI monitoring system can understand it. ”

Gu Nianchen began his chatter again.

As his teammate and friend, Lu Ping naturally knew that once Gu Nianchen's chatterbox was opened, it would not stop for a moment.

He didn't want to be punished by the Ministry of Defense again.

Last time, because he and Gu Nianchen said a few more words, they were detected by the monitoring system and punished them for being on duty, and the captain was also implicated.

With a lesson from the past, Lu Ping learned wisely this time, he aimed the muzzle of the gun at Gu Nianchen, and the infrared sight shot a red dot on Gu Nianchen's chest.

Gu Nianchen immediately raised his hands, and his left hand made a silent gesture, and Lu Ping let him go.

Lu Ping and Gu Nianchen are members of the fourth formation of the No. 23 dungeon defense team in the China District, and their duty is to protect the safety of the resource collection site.

While the excavation machinery and transport vehicles are controlled by AI, there are no humans on site other than the defense team.

However, there is a passage into the dungeon, and one of the more important duties of the defense team is to ensure the safety of the dungeon.

The year 2770 A.D. is also the year 120 of the last century, and a hundred years have passed since the beginning of the human migration plan.

Eighty years ago, ten interstellar arks flew a billion earthlings to another planet 40 light-years away from Earth, with a surface composition similar to Earth, and it is possible for humans to inhabit it.

Now that all the humans left on the earth have moved into the dungeon, Lu Ping turned eighteen years old and officially became a member of the Chinese dungeon defense team.

The old man Gu Nianchen said about his family was actually just an old beggar picked up by Lu Ping.

The first time I saw the old beggar was in the corner of the third block on the fourth floor of the twenty-third dungeon, and later Lu Ping would see him every time he went home, and Lu Ping took him home out of pity.

With Lu's understanding of modern society, the rapid development of science and technology and the sharp decline in population, as long as you are a citizen of the dungeon, even if you don't have a job, you will have something to eat, and you will not go hungry.

But after taking it home, Lu Ping regretted it a little. The old beggar was conscious, and he was a normal person, but he only remembered his own name, and knew nothing else.

And Lu Jian couldn't find any information about the old beggar.

Fortunately, after a few days, the old man was not abnormal, and he was not willing to eat rice, so he took the initiative to help Lu Ping with housework, and then Lu Ping asked him to help him hang up in the Heavenly Immortal Mansion and do some simple tasks.

Heaven is the world's largest VR virtual world, and Xianfu is just a small world grafted into it, Lu Ping likes to play because it has built a huge ancient Xianxia world, in which he can experience the legendary life of ancient humans who are completely different.

"The fourth formation of the Twenty-third Dungeon Defense Force, please pay attention, there are a large number of mutant locusts approaching you, please evacuate in time!" Just when Lu Ping fantasized about returning the Nine Turns back to Long Dan and selling it, he should be able to change into a set of the latest generation of somatosensory clothing, an alarm sounded in the earphones.

The solar radiation continues to increase, and the creatures on the earth have undergone unimaginable mutations, and Lu Ping has only seen the redescription of the terrestrial creatures in the materials after the end of the century, and this is the first time he will face the mutated locusts.

The captain's voice came from the headset three seconds after the alarm: "The situation is special, all members of the four formations cover each other, evacuate as soon as possible!"

Through the helmet, Lu Yi saw his teammates who were still a little confused in the vigilance of the collection site.

Lu Ping didn't understand why the captain would say that the situation was exceptional, and even the well-trained defense team would be in chaos. Mutant locusts are only first-order mutated earth creatures, which can be easily killed with the Guard's laser machine guns.

He took out a metal rod with two parallel links from the pocket of his protective suit, and after pulling it apart, the information interface was displayed on the soft membrane in the middle.

This device is still called a mobile phone hundreds of years later. The wisdom of the ancients, there is hardly a more apt name for a communication device that can be held in the hand.

In the projected picture, a large group of locusts are jumping and running, and the number is dense, and Lu Ping's scalp is numb for a while.

He had only seen such a scene in recorded ancient locust plagues, and it was hard to imagine what it was like to be trampled by a group of locusts that would not actively attack humans.

Only a few minutes had passed from the time the warning was received to the time they were seen, and the ground shook more and more violently, and the locusts were very fast.

At this speed, the ten-kilometer-long route of the collection site defense is completely impossible for their team members in the middle and rear sections to evacuate.

"Lu Ping! I can't run away, what should I do?" Gu Nianchen, who was still saying that he had never encountered a situation just now, suddenly panicked when he saw the oncoming army of locusts.

"Hide behind the transporter, I concentrate my firepower. ”

Lu Ping and Gu Nianchen chose the nearest transport vehicle and hid on the side with their backs to the locusts.

"Sun Qingyang, Wang Gang. Run faster. As soon as he hid behind the car, he saw two other teammates, and Gu Nianchen called them to join in.

"Four people should be able to resist the past. Sun Qingyang said.

"Support will arrive soon, and those who have not been evacuated should find a place to take shelter, and do not be under the car. Captain Hu Xingshun's voice came again.

"Bang! bang......"

Constant locusts jumped and landed on the transports, and the vanguard had already passed the defense and convoys and continued to move forward.

Vehicles outside the infestation area are rushing to the dungeon at full speed, and everything within the range has stopped running, providing shelter for the defenders.

Lu Ping looked at the locust swarm in front of him in shock, although the appearance has not changed, but the size is already the size of an adult, coupled with the amazing bounce power of more than three meters in height and more than seven meters in length every jump, I am afraid they can't be called insects, and it is not an exaggeration to call them locust beasts.

For the first time, Lu Ping saw the mutated creatures on the earth up close.

The four of them raised the laser machine guns in their hands, and they didn't need to aim, and they shot wildly at the back of the locust herd.

The giant locust did not mutate into a shell to resist attacks, and each laser shot could shoot one, and the locust beast that fell to the ground was trampled by the one that caught up from behind, and for a moment the green liquid and broken corpse fragments splattered one after another.

The wilderness with no vegetation in front of him was full of locust beasts, and even the other teammates who were ten meters away could hardly see clearly. In a short period of time, the number of locust beasts crossing the border is innumerable.
