Chapter 160 The source of Zerg’s artistic conception, the battle of recovery
“Congratulations on successfully destroying a biological mother nest!”
“Killing the mutated mother body—the node symbiont”
"Acquire ten second-level upgrade energy..."
"Acquire the gift of the node symbiote: Zerg artistic conception spiritual energy"
"The source of the Zerg artistic conception: after absorption, it can deeply read the secrets of the Zerg, the mental attribute is +100, and there is a certain probability of parsing out the relevant artistic conception skills"
"Second-level upgrade energy: can be used on orange-quality equipment or items Upgrade, you can also upgrade yourself"
The further he looked down, the more joy in Lin Feng's eyes.
Ten times of second-level upgrade energy can effectively solve the current upgrading consumption of land cruiser battleships. There is no need to waste precious second-level insect eggs.
Thus creating more second-level awakened ones.
Lay the foundation for the formation of the second-level legion.
What surprised Lin Feng the most was that there were additional rewards for killing the node mother. Looking at the introduction, it was the same as the spiritual world he experienced last time.
After absorbing the source of this artistic conception, you can enter the artistic conception inheritance of the Zerg. In addition to the basic mental attributes increasing by an additional 100, there is also a certain chance of obtaining high-level artistic conception skills such as genetic radiation.
In this way, Lin Feng will have more backup cards when killing the high-level Queen Mother.
But now is not a good time to absorb it. You have to wait until you return to the camp, adjust your condition, and try again.
Behind him, Chi Yi is controlling more red beetles and widening the entrance wormhole of the hatching nest.
The five tiger spine guards she had controlled before had all died in the blocking battle. Although their deaths successfully prevented the tiger spine insect swarm from invading and prevented everyone from being attacked from both sides, it also blocked the entrance to the entire insect nest.
So now we can only rely on red beetles to dig wide holes to take out the insect corpses.
This was the situation that Lin Feng was most worried about. Fortunately, with the help of Zhiyi, he didn’t have to worry about being trapped for too long.
Seeing Lin Feng approaching, Zhiyi glanced sideways slightly, his eyes glowing with golden light suddenly condensed and tightened.
She felt that there seemed to be something different about Lin Feng, a mental change. It was obvious that the other party's mental strength was slightly inferior to mine before...
But at this moment, it seemed even stronger.
After Xu Shi killed the node mother, he absorbed the opponent's life energy and received additional gifts.
This situation is very common. As the prototype of the field, artistic conception will automatically spread out and infect the nearby environment, which is why the life in the universe is so powerful.
The artistic conception pollution caused by killing the cosmic races is equally fatal to some planet natives.
This will gradually distort their genes and become some kind of continuation of the cosmic race.
For example, genetic warriors, such as Shen Jie who is caught in a artistic conception at the moment, it is difficult to say whether they are still pure humans or Zerg...
"Where are these corpses?"
Look Looking at Lin Feng with a smile on his face, he pointed at the digged-out tiger spine insect corpse in front of him.
Lin Feng saw this and waved the lv27 chain sword in his hand, cutting off the second-order giant jaw on the insect corpse, and also upgraded the tiger-tooth chain sword.
Killing the lv29 peak tiger spine insect before and cutting a second-level insect egg helped repair Shen Jie's injuries, just to collect the upgrade points for the next round.
"Just transport the giant jaws out together."
"Wait a minute, the node mother is dead, then all the insect swarms in this insect nest..." Lin Feng cut down one after another I picked up several pairs of second-order giant jaws and planned to take them back to the land cruiser or the cloned tank for fusion use, but suddenly I thought of the death of the node mother body, and the second-order tiger spine insect swarm outside the cave entrance that was originally about to rush in, but disappeared at this moment. ...
So I thought of some possibility.
Zhiyi followed Lin Feng’s words and nodded:
"Yes, they suddenly lost control and became a mess. At this time, the instinct of survival trumps everything else. Don't worry about the soldiers staying at the hole on the surface. Their powerful firepower is enough to deal with tens of thousands of black spine worms."
“As for the second-order tiger spine insects outside the cave, I have already controlled them to maintain the order of the main road.”
Lin Feng raised his eyebrows:
“Your The mental attribute has also exceeded the upper limit of the second level and reached the third stage. How many tiger spine insects can it be controlled now? How far can it be controlled? "
The corner of his mouth raised slightly and he waved to summon a giant red beetle and sat down. On its back:
"Guess? It's probably no less than twenty..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhiyi's face suddenly changed slightly, his golden eyes looked to the left, and his tone turned low:
"They Coming."
Lin Feng clenched the tiger-tooth chain sword and electromagnetic gun in his hands and activated telepathy:
"Haicheng or the north?"
The larvae began to urge the red beetle swarm to act quickly and multi-purpose:
"Haicheng. The second-order tiger spine worm hatching nest was destroyed, and it must be the one who is anxious. The one in the north will not be so easy. The end result is that only when we show our weakness will it surround us and pick peaches..."
Lin Feng felt temporarily relieved in his heart. In fact, what he was worried about was the Queen Mother from the north coming in person.
After all, the two places are only a dozen kilometers apart.
With his current situation and the fatigue of his team members, he is simply unable to withstand the Queen Mother's attack, and may even be destroyed here.
As for Queen No. 76 in Haicheng, it is a full 150 kilometers away from here. No matter how fast it is, there is no way to come directly. At most, an elite second-level Zerg team will be dispatched.
For example, the mixed team of samurai hunting bugs and tiger spine bugs delays the retreat of human awakeners and tries to recover the losses of the bugs as much as possible.
"Hurry up then!"
Lin Feng shrugged, walked to the front of the team, aimed at the tiger spine insect corpse blocking the entrance, and kicked it out. Fortunately, the cave wall was just It cracked a little but didn't collapse.
Xiao shook his head, commanded the red beetle swarm, carried the eggs and giant jaw materials, quickly climbed out of the nest, and followed the second-order legion team in front to the surface of the cave roof.
"I'm coming to the back of the palace to see if I can collect more second-order tiger spine insect swarms." Chrysalis stood at the entrance, looked at Lin Feng in the insect swarm, and stopped.
The light source returned by telepathy shows that there are forty or fifty second-order tiger spine insects nearby, but they are scattered everywhere and cannot be concentrated to catch them all.
"Are you sure you can protect yourself? Looking at Shen Jie's situation, I have to return to the surface first to lead the soldiers to evacuate."
"The elite second-order insect swarm that came to support is almost here. ." Lin Feng reminded, retreating as he walked.
The cricket nodded, smiled and waved.
When Lin Feng's back disappeared into the uphill wormhole, she turned around, looked deeper into the ground, and whispered:
"Come on, let me try your depth."
< br>As he spoke, multiple second-order tiger spine insects emerged from the darkness around him, swarming the crickets.
…………
Above the surface, in a community by the river surrounding the city.
Seven hundred soldiers have been hidden in the building, responsible for guarding the center of the community and the hole where the second-order legion team sneaked into.
However, more than an hour passed and no swarm of insects was seen nearby. Everyone gradually relaxed their vigilance and began to take turns patrolling and sentrying.
Among the 700 soldiers, more than 100 are veterans who once followed Lin Feng, and have reached the late stage of the first level. The rest are new recruits who joined later, but this time During the battle, complete the first level of awakening.
The number of awakened people can largely determine the strength of a team.
In particular, there is a gap between the Awakened and the Enhanced. When facing low-level Black Spine Worms, the former can easily kill them with their own abilities and weapons and equipment, while the latter find it difficult to successfully challenge them.
When repelling the endless insect swarm attacks, the powerful physique of the awakened ones is also one of the guarantees for persisting in the battle. At least their physical strength can keep up.
Two hours later, three o'clock in the afternoon.
The low-level black spine insect swarm that had been hiding inside the city suddenly appeared.
They rush and gather in groups, trying to step into the hole in the community.
The lv19 veterans who were named captain by Lin Feng all showed solemn expressions.
This is not the first time that they have faced the menacing tide of black spine worms, and they are very aware of their danger and terrifying destructive power.
The aggressiveness of this insect wave is obviously stronger than the previous tentative attacks.
At this moment, their goal is clear, just to break into the cave entrance and realize the second-order legion's pincer attack on humans. Even if you use your own insect corpses, you must hold back the insect nest invaders and keep them underground. However, the sudden appearance of the insect swarm proved from the side that Master Lin's plan was about to succeed.
For the seven hundred soldiers, as long as they stick to the wormhole on the surface and survive in the end, it is victory!
Then the veteran who noticed the insect swarm gathering in the distance immediately shouted to everyone to get up and get ready for battle.
Crouch behind the balcony windows of each floor to fight against the swarms of black spine insects that come from a distance.
Be sure to keep the insect tide out of the community!
Several captains discussed together and decided to send out fifty veterans armed with shotguns to form a near-ground fire front to eliminate the possibility of sporadic Black Spine Intruders.
Then I saw several heavily armed soldiers walking out of each residential building. They formed a group of five and began to guard the corridors between residential buildings.
This is also the blind spot for the corridor defenders.
The battle intensified with the firing of the first shotgun. More and more low-level insect swarms on the surface, under the control of the node mother, swarmed in desperately.
Pieces of insect corpses were buried in the ruins along with the collapse of nearby buildings, and were then covered again by new corpses.
Like leeks, endless.
Swarms of black spine worms numbering in the tens of thousands are coming in droves.
The fearless charge allowed many late-stage Black Spine Worms of the first order to successfully break through the fire net in the residential building and break into the community by stepping on the corpses of the same kind. Then, using the blind spot of the shooting angle on the side of the building, they were about to reach the entrance of the cave. !
But what greeted them next was the muzzle of a gun raised close at hand, aiming at the fish that had slipped through the net and taking them away in piles.
At the end of the battle, the large-caliber rifles and heavy machine guns provided by the recruits, as well as the hundreds of rounds of ammunition they carried, were all used up.
Many veterans gave their shotguns to them for continued use. While maintaining fire suppression, it also allowed the recruits to quickly accumulate the energy needed for upgrades.
Two hundred shotguns and five thousand space-based ammunition, as long as they can form an all-round fire front with no blind spots, are enough to eliminate hundreds of thousands of low-level insect swarms.
And the holder of it in advance can continuously withstand its powerful recoil.
Unlike the original electromagnetic gun held by Lin Feng, these copies only retain the basic attributes, and everything else can be kept simple.
Having a terrifying damage of up to 190 points, it naturally also inherits the recoil caused by the powerful firepower.
Every time a shot is fired, the cannon is retracted, like a heavy hammer hitting the shoulder of the gunman.
The reason why Lin Feng did not directly equip the Enhanced Soldiers with shotguns was because they were not even qualified to fire cannons. Even lv10 first-level awakeners could only recover after one shot. Yes, keep shooting.
Even replicas require corresponding levels, physical and mental attributes to control them and fully unleash their true power.
As the fierce battle passed by minute by second...
Finally, one hour after the outbreak, at four o'clock in the afternoon, everyone smelled the battlefield air filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder and insect blood. , seeing the swarm of insects fleeing in all directions, they were instantly defeated.
Many veterans with rich combat experience looked puzzled.
Because in the dozen or so battles they have experienced, there has never been such a large-scale defeat.
Even on several occasions, under the leadership of the Master Chief, the insect swarms were defeated steadily, and the evacuation of the alien insect swarms was still very orderly.
Even when everyone is chasing, they can organize effective combat power and carry out counterattack and encirclement.
This is a situation that has never appeared on the human battlefield.
According to the introductions of several senior members of the team, the low-level insect swarms have no self-awareness, just like robots, and are all controlled by the high-level mother queen of the insect race...
But right now The swarm of insects that appeared in a panic and crowded at the exit of the street collapsed.
Let veterans think of a possibility.
“Did the Master Chief and the others win?!”
“Yes, the division commander did it, maybe by defeating the Zerg Mother Queen, or driving them away...”
< br>"In short, this small county town was successfully recovered!"
Several captains gathered together and pieced together the truth about the defeat of the insect swarm in a few words. They were immediately overjoyed and felt even more excited.
After all, this is the first time for humans to regain territory from the Zerg and regain an entire city!
Although it is only a small county town.
But it has an extraordinary meaning.
Even Wucheng's frontal defense line can only clear the surface wormholes of the Zerg and suppress their expansion speed. It cannot go deep underground and completely expel all the Zerg swarms.
But today, under the leadership of the newly formed second-order legion team, they successfully recaptured a city in less than half a day of fighting.
The strength of the Master Chief once again made everyone admire him.
I am also very eager to become a member of the second-order legion.
Shortly afterwards, there was a slight shaking on the ground, and at the entrance of the wormhole guarded by seven hundred soldiers, the second-order legion returned with a great victory.
When Liu Yi and others appeared at the entrance, wearing red and orange battle armor covered with insect scum and bloodstains, and an extremely shocking evil aura...
Hundreds of soldiers came down from the tall buildings to greet the heroes.
Liu Yi raised his head, wiped off the sticky insect blood on his mask and goggles, and looked at the sun in the sky.
The temperature of the sun will be on your face.
There was an unprecedented desire in my heart to bask in the warmth of the sun.
The darkness and danger of the underground insect nest made everyone breathless, and every minute was torture.
On the way back, everyone naturally encountered the harassment of the second-order tiger spine insects. Although they were separated from the command and control of the node mother, the previous instructions still worked, and the insect nest was invaded by foreign enemies. Killing the enemy was the tiger spine. Bugs, as the meaning of existence of high-level soldier bugs.
During the 300-meter climb, seven second-level awakeners encountered three waves of tiger spine insect teams, ten in total.
In the end, they used shotguns to seriously injure them from a distance, and then used their fists and kicks to completely kill them in close combat!
At this moment, they have all advanced to the late second level, and many of them who react quickly have even reached level 29. The strength between their fists and feet alone is eighty or ninety tons, and they can kill those in the early and middle second level in close combat. Tiger spine worm, of course, is not a problem.
Lin Feng did not intervene during the entire battle.
Firstly, they need to train, these newly promoted second-level legion members, and secondly, there are some things that need to be fought for with their own hands.
Later, Lin Feng used seven of the tiger spine insect giant jaws as rewards to help the seven members upgrade their red black armor to red tiger armor. Except that it has no flight mode, it is almost the same as the flying tiger armor. .
Afterwards, they met the tiger spine insects on a narrow road again. The people who owned the red tiger armor were naturally worthy of close combat, and even eager to engage in hand-to-hand combat!
Next, all it takes is Fatty Ding’s tiger-toothed chain sword and the second-order legion that Lin Feng envisioned in his mind...
and it will be completely formed.
The second level of awakened strength, coupled with the defense of tiger armor, is equipped with a shotgun for long-range attack and suppression, and a tiger-tooth chain sword for melee combat.
The members of such a team, even if they go deep into the underground insect nest, are still able to block and kill insects, and they are invincible in their sweep.
At this moment, the Legion members are experiencing the dangers underground for the first time, but they just want to be in the sun and feel more about the normal world.
While hundreds of soldiers were cheering, they saw an extremely incredible scene:
Behind the legion team, there were countless red beetle swarms, and their backs Up...
The white second-order insect eggs carried on the back!
When many team members subconsciously raised their guns and aimed at them, fortunately, Liu Yi had already lifted his visor and saw everyone with nervous expressions.
He quickly shouted loudly:
"Put down the gun, they are not enemies!"
After saying that, Liu Yi himself felt incredible.
But the experience of the underground insect nest was a hundred times more bizarre than the scene in front of me.
And all they can do...
Only believe.
Believe in the strange things I have experienced, believe in all this, believe that I am still alive...
And, believe in the Master Chief unconditionally.
