Chapter 136 Blood-Drinking Blade, Qin Hu’s Determination
Looking at the humanoid corpse that was thrown over, Qin Hu and others turned their heads, and at the same time, the searchlight above their heads illuminated the objects in front of them.
Seeing such a ferocious humanoid insect with a three-meter-tall body, especially the chest and abdomen, with spherical sarcomas that looked like human faces...
I felt quite nervous. The team members were trembling with fear, their hands and feet were numb, and the tiger-tooth chain sword they were holding tightly was gradually becoming unsteady.
“Ah...ahhh...”
"Help...save me..."
Before everyone calmed down, they saw the human face on the sarcoma, as if stimulated by light, struggling with its mouth open, and making a hoarse cry for help.
The familiar federal language spread to everyone’s ears.
Qin Hu instantly realized that the shouts he heard coming from the dark depths before were probably made by this weird monster.
That's a trap.
He almost suffered the same fate as the seriously injured and unconscious team member behind him.
Who would have known that the ferocious and terrifying alien Zerg race would actually evolve a human body structure and use the language of the Federation to lure awakened people to relax their vigilance.
Seeing the still squirming face, several team members who were less able to bear it started vomiting directly.
vomited out most of the liquid nutritional supplement he had just taken.
Qin Hu took a deep breath and said to Lin Feng:
"This is the third most secretive new second-level insect race, the warrior insect hunter?"
Lin Feng nodded, his left hand grabbing the complete body of a Pulse War Scorpion.
The dead Pulse War Scorpion will, like most arthropods, have its six legs curled up and folded together on its abdomen to form a flower-shaped basket.
As long as the body is turned upside down with the belly facing up, the remaining six plasma tail cannons can be placed inside.
Just solve the problem of inconvenient carrying.
Lin Feng, who has reached the perfection of the late second stage, has a physical attribute of up to 980 points, which can bring nearly a hundred tons of terrifying explosive power. Even under normal conditions, he can exert more than fifty tons of power.
It was extremely easy to drag a ten-ton Zerg corpse.
The free right hand holds a brand new tiger-tooth chain sword, which is somewhat inconsistent with the chain swords in the hands of Qin Hu and others.
Its saw teeth have become wider and sharper, and at the same time, there is no longer an oil hose inserted to provide cutting power.
The Tiger Tooth Chain Sword has been upgraded.
Entering lv24.
Lin Feng walked past everyone and put down the body of the Pulse War Scorpion together with the Samurai Hunting Insect.
Then he checked Shen Jie's injuries and confirmed that the other person's life was not in danger. At the same time, he noticed that Shen Jie was upgrading, so he patted his shoulder, turned around and said:
"I'm finishing killing Pulse. After fighting the scorpions, they were attacked by samurai hunting insects, and the two attacked at the same time..."
"But they were all solved, and on the way there, there were three more samurai hunting insects, and two of them were killed. Escape one.”
Lin Feng glanced at the tiger-tooth chain sword in his hand, which had accumulated 6 upgrade points, and the upgraded attribute data appeared:
"Tiger-tooth chain sword lv24/29, orange quality"
"Upgrade point 6/10, durability: 10/10, damage 400"
"Extra attributes: extremely fast cutting (turns the saw teeth five times per second, causing five times the basic damage, current battery life is two hours)"
"New additional attribute: Blood-drinking Blade (for every second-level Zerg killed, in addition to gaining upgrade points, you can also recover a little durability, and the battery life will increase by one hour)"< br>
"Note: The basic damage decreases as the chain sword's durability decreases."
After upgrading to obtain the blood-drinking blade attribute, Lin Feng kept the bloated backpack aside.
It’s not that the backpack is too heavy, but it affects the swing of the sword. Especially when faced with the swift and cunning sneak attack of the samurai hunting insects, I cannot hold the handle of the sword behind my back to protect my back, and it takes time to turn around and deal with it head-on...
Bullet time and absolute defense both have a certain cooling time. During this period, the backpack becomes very cumbersome and may even hinder the flying tiger armor and activate flight mode.
So on the way, after upgrading, Lin Feng simply discarded his backpack and relied on killing insects to provide the chain sword with battery life.
Unexpectedly, he encountered a desperate samurai insect hunter, and three of them attacked at the same time. Lin Feng answered the challenge with a chain sword, but had no time to use the electromagnetic gun slung on his back, and regrettably let one of them escape.
When Lin Feng finished describing his experience, the survivors present swallowed their saliva.
It turns out that it was Lin Feng who was in real danger.
Weak people like them don't even have the ability to detect the enemy. In other words, their strength is not enough for the samurai hunting insects to take action.
Only Qin Hu and other three genetic warriors, as well as Shen Jie, who has the ability to devour and assimilate, are worthy of being hunted and captured.
Qin Hu took a deep breath and stared at the corpse of the warrior insect hunter in front of him. Seeing the struggling and twisted human face gradually losing its vitality, he continued to ask:
"They have the awakened person's energy fused into their bodies." Genes?"
Lin Feng shrugged:
"Probably, but it might be faster to sew the upper body of the awakened person directly into it, to create a machine that has both the powerful physique of the Zerg and the intelligence of a human being. A deformed monster.”
As he spoke, Lin Feng’s expression gradually became serious:
"These samurai hunter bugs can also use the superpowers of human awakeners, just like genetic warriors."
"When I was cutting up the body of the Pulse War Scorpion, I met a samurai hunter hunter who could hide his aura. "Insect, guess who is on the human facial sarcoma on its abdomen?"
Qin Hu's pupils shrank. When he learned that Cheng Zhan had escaped from the hinterland of the Insects and was promoted to the second level of awakening, he specially investigated it. Pass the other party’s identity verification information.
As for being able to escape, Cheng Zhan's explanation was that his superpower not only enhanced his physical fitness, but also had the additional effect of hiding his own aura.
And he has personally experimented with it, and in a dark environment, it is almost invisible.
If that were the case, everything would make sense.
So the top brass of the Thirteenth Division relaxed their vigilance.
“It’s that guy Cheng Zhan!”
Qin Hu replied in a positive tone.
Seeing Lin Feng nod, he clenched his fists tighter:
"When I was alone, collecting and burying the bodies of soldiers who unfortunately died in battle, I heard the voices of my former comrades coming from samurai hunting insects. Now that I think about it, it should be a lure trap set by them..."
said At this, Qin Hu's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly took out the fuel tank below from the backpack left on the side.
Then we came to the place where the pit was just dug not far away.
However, it is a pity that the corpses of the team members he put into the grave have disappeared at this moment...
The long footprints appearing beside the grave imply that the corpse of the awakened person is It was dug up and taken away by the samurai hunting insects.
Qin Hu, who realized later, was one step too late after all.
It seems that the real purpose of the samurai hunting insects is not only to lure the awakened ones to relax their vigilance, but also to take away the corpses of the awakened ones so that the mother queen can give birth to a new hybrid species.
Qin Hu, a little disappointed, returned to everyone.
At this moment, everyone has gathered together to guard against the samurai hunting insects hiding in the dark.
Beside Lin Feng, Shen Jie has put away his fighting form of the Winged Tiger, and through the energy dissipated during the upgrade, he has healed the serious injuries he suffered before.
The abdominal wound has scabbed and recovered.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Shen Jie woke up and said in a hoarse voice:
"I encountered two samurai hunting insects attacking together, but they did not hide their aura. The ability is comparable to the agility of the mid-to-late second level. I can only barely cope with their swift and fierce swings..."
"Fortunately, this armor saved me."
< br>“In the end, I succeeded in counter-killing them, and I was promoted to the middle of the second level.”
Lin Feng nodded and appraised Shen Jie's current statistics:
"Shen Jie, lv24/29"
"HP 450, constitution 450, spirit 350"
"Super Able to awaken: Devouring and Assimilation—Wing Tiger Crazy Fight"
"Note: Excessive use of assimilation form will deepen the degree of distortion, physical attributes +50, mental attributes -50"
It seems that the attack by the samurai hunting insects has once again worsened Shen Jie's condition. Even though he has exited the assimilated form, the joints of the five fingers of his hands still maintain the sharp thrusts of insects.
To be more serious, even human firearms and weapons will not be able to be used in the future.
After Shen Jie finished his report, he suddenly realized that the replica shotgun originally slung on his back had disappeared.
Recalling the dangerous battle just now, it seems that it was the shotgun that helped the samurai block the sharp blades coming from behind when he was attacking from behind.
Then it was cut in two and fell to the ground.
Shen Jie mentioned this to Lin Feng and apologized quickly.
Lin Feng shrugged:
"It's okay, it's just a few kilograms of steel. There are still a lot of them in the land cruiser. You should pay more attention. If this goes on, it will be difficult to even pull the trigger. "
Shen Jie clasped his claws and nodded silently. Qin Hu, who returned to the camp, was a little disappointed. Looking at the low morale of the people, he said:
"The two new Zerg corpses have been obtained. The mission is completed and it's time to leave!"
A glimmer of light flashed in the confused eyes of the team members, and they couldn't wait to get up.
Qin Hu walked up to Lin Feng and looked at the insect corpses on the ground:
“Can I give you two more?”
Lin Feng pointed to the tiger spine insect. Behind the Corpse:
"There are two more behind here, the samurai hunting bugs killed by Shen Jie. They are all for you, so you can take them away."
"I think the members of the Institute of Biology are interested in these human-bug hybrids." I'm more interested in the deformed product."
"As for the pulse war scorpions, there are seven in total. The complete one I dragged here is for you. As for the six plasma tail cannons that I cut off, Leave them all."
Qin Hu nodded directly without hesitation.
As Lin Feng said, there are only eight of them left. One of them is injured, and one has a broken leg and is seriously injured. He cannot even move alone and needs help.
In this way, only five people can carry the insect corpses.
Someone needs to be responsible for guarding and guarding against another sneak attack by the Samurai Hunting Insect, so bring at most one Pulse War Scorpion corpse. As for the Samurai Hunting Insect, you only need to bring two.
Thinking of this, Qin Hu quickly made arrangements.
Take out bundles of three-centimeter-thick braided ropes from the team members' backpacks, tie the insect corpses tightly and package them for easy dragging and transportation.
While waiting, he lit a cigarette and chatted with Lin Feng while being alert:
"The capital has only a rough description of warriors hunting insects. I never thought that they would be so weird and difficult to deal with."
"You are absolutely right, they are just like the Zerg. Genetic warriors are different from large zerg races that have fused insect genes such as pulse war scorpions and tank beetles. The development and cultivation of samurai hunting insects is to specifically target the powerful awakeners of human beings and us genetic warriors..."
"We want to bring this news and samples back, so that the institute can find countermeasures as soon as possible, and remind other fronts and the capital to beware of sneak attacks by the humanoid Zerg."
Lin Feng nodded and answered. Tao:
“The key is to protect the awakened ones with powerful or special powers to prevent them from being captured by the Zerg, or their bodies being obtained by the Zerg.”
"I remember when the first line of defense was breached, there seemed to be people who had awakened with super bullets and were surrounded by insects."
"The physical attributes of insects are inherently stronger than humans, which is equivalent to having their own physical enhancement abilities. The melee strength is strong, if coupled with long-range attacks..."
Qin Hu's face became increasingly gloomy:
"I will remind them before I leave"
Lin Feng was a little surprised:
"Leaving soon?"
Qin Hu hummed:
"Over in the capital, high-end combat power is tight. If we are lucky enough to escape this time, we will be the only ones who go deep into the insect nest. , the special team returned successfully."
"It will be transferred to the federal capital soon."
Lin Feng was a little confused. When the battle of Wucheng is over, the federal leaders will abandon the entire south. , and the Thirteenth Division currently stationed will also go their separate ways. By then, with Qin Hu's strength, he will be able to raise a group of troops on his own, so there is no need to take risks in the capital.
There, we have to face the joint encirclement and attack of more than eight Queen Mothers at the same time. Coupled with the special geographical location of the capital, it is easy to be surrounded from all sides.
Once it is broken, it will be difficult to fly.
This is a close call.
As a native of the south, Lin Feng certainly hopes that Qin Hu can stay. Even if he does not join his team in the future, the two can cooperate with each other.
But when Lin Feng put forward his idea, Qin Hu laughed, then shook his head and said:
"Actually, the top management of the Thirteenth Division, including my old boss, have advised me and even guaranteed my wife and daughter's life in the safe zone..."
As he spoke, Qin Hu looked at the busy team members in front of him. , his eyes gradually became determined:
“But if we stay, we can only save hundreds or thousands of people in the end, and most of the survivors in the rear have already rushed outside the safe zone, to the two states behind. A land of thousands of miles is enough for the Zerg to expand for several months..."
"If I stay, I am just a genetic warrior with a small reputation but no voice. But it will be different when I go to the federal capital."
“There, what I can do is not only a defensive battle, but also lead the entire federation to win a glimmer of hope in this war that determines the life and death of mankind.”
Qin Hu then looked at Lin Feng. Maybe the young man in front of him was not in the army and had nothing to do with him, or maybe he valued Lin Feng's strong potential. He blew out a puff of white smoke and also confided his heart:
"This Along the way, I also believed that I would be the real hero who saves mankind. I also believed that as long as I dared to fight hard, I could lead my brothers to survive. For this reason, I even narrowly missed death during the experiment. I used my own will to carry it over..."
"But what we faced in the end was still failure, the failure of the war against the Zerg, the failure of trust in the brothers. Even now, Wu Cheng cannot change The fate of defeat and the dismantling of the Thirteenth Division..."
"A complete failure..."
"So I finally understood that no matter how strong and hard a person is, there is no The law can save everything. Maybe if we stay, we can protect a city and an urban area, but the entire human race still cannot escape the end of destruction."
"The only thing that can change all of this is power."
"Use power to mobilize all resources, promote genetic modification technology, quickly popularize genetic warriors, create maximum profits with minimal resource consumption, and contain the Zerg army Keep pushing forward. "
"What I want to do this time is not only to defend the capital, but also to truly prove the strength and value of the genetic warriors in this defense battle!"
" I think this is the only way to deal with the warrior hunting insects, right?"
Lin Feng was a little surprised. He saw firm belief and a hint of madness in Qin Hu's eyes.
But he was right.
Biomodification surgery is indeed the lowest resource consumption method to create the highest combat effectiveness.
And the production speed is faster than all thermal weapons.
It’s just that it uses awakened people like consumables, and its essence is still human experimentation. From a moral and ethical perspective, it is also difficult to be accepted by the public.
Just look at Shen Jie’s appearance.
This also involves people with deep genetic integration who are worried about their own cognition.
Although it will greatly improve human strength in the early stage, more problems will arise in the future.
Now the Zerg Mother Queen has also discovered this, and is also intensively promoting development.
It can be seen from this insect nest exploration.
Most of the casualties came from samurai hunting insects.
It is difficult for the large second-order Zerg to confront genetic warriors on the battlefield. The samurai insect hunters are not only powerful, but the more important reason is...
The cost of hatching and producing them is far higher than that of the second-order Zerg. The tiger spine worm comes low!
Chi Yi once said that the Tiger Spiny Insect's giant jaws were a scarce strategic material for the Queen Mother, otherwise she would not have given up only the second-order insect eggs.
Nowadays, the two pairs of legs and arms of the samurai hunting insects only need to be equipped with four two-meter long knives, and the total weight is less than one-tenth of the giant jaw of the tiger spine insect.
The original pair of orange-quality giant jaws can arm a dozen samurai insect hunters.
When fighting against human awakeners, it can also bring a super high battle loss ratio.
This is a sure-profit deal.
In the future, there will only be more and more samurai hunting insects.
Qin Hu also deduced this from Lin Feng's attitude towards the new second-order Zerg, and then made up his mind to put the biological transformation plan on the agenda as soon as possible.
After the two of them finished talking, they both fell into deep thought, and the team members also packed up.
Lin Feng has already absorbed the giant jaws collected by Shen Jie...
It's time to set off.
Along the way, Lin Feng and Shen Jie silently followed the team. Together with Qin Hu, they guarded against the sneak attack of the samurai hunting insects.
Perhaps it was because everyone was gathered together, or perhaps the first batch of hatched samurai hunting insects had been exhausted...
In short, the journey up to the surface was smooth.
With the insect aura released by Qin Hu and Lin Feng's Flying Tiger Armor, the ordinary first-order black spine insects did not dare to step forward to harass them, so they all backed away.
The Queen of Haicheng seemed to realize that it was impossible to keep everyone underground for the time being, so she simply gave up the resistance and let these living kings of hell leave as soon as possible.
When everyone saw the light above their heads and climbed excitedly to the entrance of the cave, they found themselves one kilometer away from the first line of defense.
The originally shattered Dongcheng District suddenly turned into ruins at this moment. Countless high-rise buildings collapsed and collapsed. There was also a strong smell of gunpowder between the second line of defense and the first line of defense.
Qin Hu and others were a little confused. Could it be that a war had broken out during the mission?
Looking around, I couldn't find even a red beetle, let alone black spine worms.
Lin Feng smiled faintly, raised his lv29 electromagnetic gun, and fired a magnetic blast bomb into the sky.
Hundreds of meters high in the sky, there was a violent explosion, and the brilliant blue arc was dazzling.
Soon after, a battleship, leading eight chariots, came quickly from a distance, and the earth rumbled.
This incredible dry land boat ride...
Qin Hu and others were stunned.
As for the character Qin Hu, I wanted to write him as a figure like the president in Steel. This volume, Darkness Falls, will end with the death of the Mother Queen, and other third-level Zerg races will also be triggered to appear.
