Volume 1 Xibin Boy Chapter 57 Suspicions Emerge
The girl was kind and kind, and a few sand beasts didn't pay attention to it, so she took her leave first. Yang Ji arched his hand and got up to leave.
"Wait. Yuwen Bangtang called out to him.
"How?"
"I'll have a big rock to see. ”
“......”
Ran away from Yuwen Bangtang's side, he swore that he would never talk nonsense next time, but he didn't expect such a shameful words to be listened to word for word, and it was also a loss for her to fight while fighting, and she could still have this spare strength, and her real strength was extraordinary.
Leaving the small vacuum area created by Yuwen Bangtang, Yang Ji relied on his strong body to rampage through the beast herd like a tank, and there were constantly various low-level sand beasts flying into the air whirling, and those high-level sand beasts who were sensitive to danger avoided them one after another because of the breath of Taurus, and for a while Yang Ji became the safest person on the battlefield.
"Goo..... Gollum ......" Gollum, which was clinging to his arm, suddenly made a sound.
Perhaps because of symbiosis, he found that he could roughly understand what Gollum was trying to say, but after thinking about it for a moment, his face gradually became strange.
"Lots of snacks... To eat... Quack?" He looked around at the dense sand scorpions and tarantulas, and many more unknown desert creatures, and his scalp was numb, did he have to eat these things for himself?
"Goo...... Goo ...... "Gollum does not give up."
"No, absolutely not! You have the ability to jump out by yourself, I, Yang Ji, have my own principles, I will never eat uncooked things, and I won't be able to fry them!" Yang Ji refused verbally.
"Goo...... Coo......" The grunt voice became rapid, and he seemed to be a little angry.
Yang Ji waved his arm helplessly, sending the sand beasts to the sky, today's luck is really a bit back, half of the horned python is gone, but his own naughty child first lost his temper.
He was about to argue with Gollum about whether humans could eat insect sashimi, when he suddenly noticed that the tattoo emitted a faint white light, and a wisp of black gas floated out of the scorpion's body before it landed, and it was swallowed into Gollum's body along the white light.
"You still have this function, don't say it sooner. Yang Ji was overjoyed, it was a little different after evolving once, and such an environmentally friendly and efficient way of replenishing energy could save him a lot of trouble.
"Goo...... Gollum ......" Gollum protested, but was miserably ignored by Yang Ji, who was full of energy like a chicken blood, and became extremely fierce when he fought the sand beast, after all, in the eyes of the young man who was used to being poor since he was a child, a large part of this black pressure is energy, and it is a waste to fight one less.
Regardless of the fact that this man and beast were obsessed with earning energy and couldn't extricate themselves, the situation on the field began to change.
Second Lieutenant Jaime was the first to retreat back to the fortress, Jane stepped forward and draped in a wide sweat scarf, his muscular body was trembling, the white marks that had been scratched by the sand beast before he died were fading at a rapid pace, and the tower-like man just sat silently on the side, sweat already wetting the ground under his feet.
"Jaime, the Tiger form is too much of an overdraft on the body, and I've said many times that I don't want to use it...... Alas. Jane's expression was gloomy.
"Three years, three years at most, and I can feel that I'm about to break through that bottleneck. Ensign Jaime clenched his fists.
Jane stopped talking, but finally sighed, and didn't say anything more, he fully understood Jaime's determination, but lived in self-blame for the rest of his life, was it really worth it?
"Second Lieutenant James is really brave, after this fight, is he in good health?" Captain Rice approached from not far away.
"Wouldn't you be a little more relieved if I said something was wrong?" Jaime replied faintly, raising his eyelids.
"Captain Rice, Second Lieutenant Jaime is not in a good position right now. Jane was caught between the two.
"Don't get in the way, Major General Rollin asked me to bring something. Captain Rice smiled and pulled out a narrow letter from his waist, the seal of which was stamped with a special red seal, which he had shown in front of Jane and placed next to Ensign James.
"Second Lieutenant James......" said to Captain Rice, straightening his cuffs, and half-leaning over him:
"You may think that I am targeting you, but I just advocate the justice in my heart, and my subordinates should be punished if they do not do well, if they don't even have this little rule, how can they implement the iron law of the Zhenxi Army? ”
"Thank you Captain Rice for your concern, I strongly defend your right to speak, but reserve my opinion. Second Lieutenant James looked at the white-haired middle-aged man in front of him and nodded tiredly, he was already tired of this little trick of fighting for power, and he didn't care at all.
"Rice has only been transferred to Steel Fortress in the past two years, so I don't know your past, otherwise I wouldn't have spoken to you like this. Jane looked at Captain Rice's back in the distance and said indignantly.
"Jane, it doesn't matter. In the eyes of these part-time politicians, I was just a super soldier, whether I was squeezed out or bribed...... Just keep an eye on your goals and let these clowns perform their officialdom. ”
Ensign James waved his hand disapprovingly, opened the encrypted letter and read it, just looking at it, but his face gradually became solemn.
"Is there anything wrong?" asked Jane, seeing the change in Lieutenant James' expression.
"There's a mole in the fortress!" Second Lieutenant James slammed his fist into the bench, tearing the letter to shreds.
......
......
Yuwen Bangtang also appeared on the city wall a moment later, killing a hundred desert tarantulas, she had run out of patience for this repetitive and boring exercise, practice is always practice, you can't expect it to be so interesting, but just now, she suddenly had a feeling of palpitations, as if she was facing wolves in the wasteland, and the sea met a storm, and an instinctive sense of danger came to her heart.
She was dressed in white and snowy, and her cold eyes scanned back and forth on the battlefield, but she never found anything wrong.
The beasts beyond the high walls attacked even more frantically, and just as the battle was in a stalemate, a large buzzing black cloud suddenly floated in the sky, and several signal flares on the watchtower rose into the sky, blooming a bright red in the morning light.
"Sand thorn locust, sand thorn locust!" the soldier in charge of the lookout broke down and shouted.
As soon as these words came out, not to mention those officers, even Major General Luo Lin's face changed slightly, the sand thorn locusts have a popular nickname among the desert tribe, called murderous locusts, because their whole body has evolved armor-like spikes, which are extremely aggressive, and there are many fatal records.
The body of the killer locust is yellow-brown, about 20 centimeters long, with 1 pair of compound eyes and 3 single eyes, sharp mouthparts are used to penetrate the thick skin of desert plants to absorb water, of course, they can easily pierce human skin, even if they live in groups and are not easy to provoke, locust plagues are extremely rare in the desert.
Most of the eggs of the killer locusts will die in the hot desert environment, and even if a small number hatch out, they will become the rations of various natural enemies early, so it is difficult to form a scale, and the population that the oasis can support is already limited, and the desert people spare no effort to kill them.
There are people in the desert who are raising and killing locusts in captivity on a large scale!
