Chapter 113 Beacon fire plays with insects
Ling wrapped Lu Zhizhi in a blanket and stayed by her side until dawn, then gently woke her up.
She has a habit of curling up into a ball when she sleeps. She is so small, which makes people feel pity for her.
"Are you leaving?" Lu Zhizhi rubbed his eyes, but found Ling looking at the entrance of the cave with a serious expression.
Zero's ears moved and he said: "They came in."
He immediately put out the fire, picked up Lu Zhizhi and hid her behind a rock, "Don't come out, I'll go take a look. If I don't come back, take it and contact Hector."
Lu Zhizhi saw a signal device he stuffed into her and said seriously: "I am a guide, not a human being who needs to be protected. I can fight with you."
Zero was slightly startled.
He almost forgot that the guide in front of him was different from the guides he had come into contact with in school.
In the White Tower before, the status of guides was very high. They were strong and controlling. Some guides did not regard the sentries as human beings at all, but as consumables. But the girl in front of him was gentle and naughty. She would offer to purify him and would regard protecting the sentry as her responsibility.
Zero's mood at the moment was indescribably complicated. He really wanted to be a sentinel and then stand beside her legitimately.
He lowered his head to hide his expression and said: "Then I will go out to investigate first. Insects usually don't go alone, they attack in groups, so if there is an encounter later, there must be a lot of them. I will try my best to use my powers to hold them back. , when you see the right moment, use the rope to climb up.”
He felt this was the best arrangement.
But Lu Zhizhi still shook his head and disagreed, saying: "You go to investigate the situation, and I will help you from behind. If you want to protect me, then fight like a sentry, and I will be behind you."

Ling's eyes trembled, his lips tightened, and he finally walked out without saying anything.
He flew up to the sky, hiding among the slippery and dark rock walls, and saw the insects one after another lowering ropes from the entrance to the ground, then swooping down, stretching out their hands in flight, and immediately there were thousands of them. Ice picks were shot at them.
The bugs that were hit were immediately frozen in place, but there were still bugs pouring in one after another, densely packed, like ants coming out of the nest.
The world of bugs is very simple, they only receive signals and transmit signals.
And every bug has its own mission, and they know it from birth.
For example, most bugs know that they are guards and are used for sacrifices and sacrifices; some bugs know that their role is to lie on the ground and serve as carpets for female bugs. They work hard to polish their bug beetles soft, just to Let the female bugs not prick their feet; but there are also higher bugs, who know from birth that they are servant bugs, that is, they are born to serve the queen.
In short, the fate of insects is never controlled by themselves.
In some ways, bugs are a more united race than humans. Because they don't go around and around, every bug doesn't think about how to benefit themselves.
They have simple and rough lines, are not afraid of sacrifice, and are large in number, so they are annoying and even fearful to humans.
Just think about it, a powerful enemy is not scary, but a group of extremely tough enemies who are not afraid of death are simply a nightmare. Because they will bother you over and over again, attack you, make you angry, and then kill them all.
Regarding this characteristic, Lu Zhizhi had a profound understanding of it while watching the battle between Zero and the bugs.
I saw that no matter how Zero attacked, he kept killing bugs, but the heroic bugs did not feel any sadness for the death of their companions. Instead, they were even more excited, thinking that their companions died gloriously and well, and that their bug lives were complete.
Zero was soon unable to maintain stable flight due to the energy fluctuations of his powers. He was pulled down by bugs, and bugs climbed onto his back and gnawed on his wings.
Suddenly, a small stone hit the head of an insect that was biting its wings. It was not very harmful, but very insulting.
He turned around angrily and saw a girl standing not far away, saying to them: "What does it mean to only fight with people of the same race? I am a human being. You have the ability to kill me, a bunch of bugs!" Bugs! It was impossible to tell the difference between the sentry guides and ordinary humans. When they saw Lu Zhizhi looking like an ordinary human, they all turned red-eyed.
"Disgusting humans, we can't even tell the difference between species! We are not bed bugs, we are stick insects!"
The insects were furious.
Ling shouted to Lu Zhizhi: "Go quickly!"
But it was too late, the army of insects swarmed towards Lu Zhizhi.
Ling's eyes were about to burst, and he wanted to flap his injured wings to fly to her side, but the next second, he saw Lu Zhizhi smile slyly.
She raised her hand, and there was a small flame in her palm. She smiled brightly at the insects, and suddenly blew on the small flame.
In an instant, the originally weak flames were like surging fire dragons, suddenly attacking the insect army, burning their beetles, and the insects' buttocks were on fire, and they were running around screaming.
If the people in the Senate learned that Lu Zhizhi used the power of Spark like this, they would probably have no filter on her ability.
In fact, from the moment he awakened until now, Lu Zhizhi didn't know how to use the power of sparks, just how to light a fire. At this time, she was like a naughty child, throwing the match into the ant nest, and then hid aside to watch the farce of beacon fire and insects.

Bugs are very afraid of fire. Some bugs jumped into the water, some were burned to charcoal, and some rolled on the ground.
The whole cave is filled with the smell of burning, and even a bit of the aroma of fried insects (?)
Zero looked at the scene in front of him and saw that she was fine. He breathed a sudden sigh of relief, then endured the pain and flew over to hold her in his arms and flew towards the entrance.
Lu Zhizhi took advantage of this opportunity to release his mental power, and saw that Ling's wings healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The flying speed of the blue morpho butterfly is very fast among its kind, and Zero took her out of this chaotic battlefield in a short time.
Lu Zhizhi wanted to throw a few more fireballs down, but was stopped by Ling.
"They are just wretches who follow orders. If they can come out of the hole, let them go."
Lu Zhizhi rarely saw people who were softer than her, and asked: "But they bully you and bite your wings, aren't you angry?"
Zero said: "The White Tower taught me that you should never point your gun at your own people. If I have a choice, I don't want to hurt them."
Lu Zhizhi sighed in his heart.
The Zerg did not accept him, but he regarded the Zerg as one of his own.
The main star expelled him, but deep down he still regarded the sentinels and humans on the main star as his own.
Although he chose to stand on the human side when the Zerg and humans were in conflict, he would still be kind to his own kind.
Lu Zhizhi hugged Ling's neck a little tighter, trying to give him more warmth.
Even without words, Zero could faintly feel her state of mind because he had been purified by her.
He knew that he was being valued as never before. He felt extremely happy.
