Chapter 3 Unnamed Alien Mutant Swarm Combat Mechanics
Bai Xing slipped out of the belly of the insect mother with the pouring gastric juice, and was thrown on the dry land. After regaining the moist and fresh air, before she could even take a breath, she curled up her body and retched desperately, unable to vomit. Something, but he spit out two mouthfuls of fishy-sweet liquid.

She thought it was blood.

"Hiss--" The cry of the mother insect is a high-frequency sound. After being amplified in the narrow cave, it reaches Bai Xing's ears like a magical sound, almost deafening her eardrums.

She took out her blood-stained hands and covered her ears tightly. She curled up into a ball, protecting her head and avoiding the falling sand.

The worm mother's screams didn't last long, and it started to move, moving its fleshy and limp body away, and began to move slowly with its almost degenerated legs.

Naturally, Bai Xing, who was rubbing and drying the gastric juice on his body in the sand, could not let her go. She fumbled for the dagger on her body, and called out to Adou. After shouting a few times, she heard Adou's weak cry of pain.

"Hurry up and hitch a ride!" She didn't dare to open her eyes, and shouted in the direction of Adou's voice like a blind person, and ended up eating a mouthful of sand.

After shouting, she turned the dagger and found the starting point on the insect mother. She used all her strength to insert the dagger into the insect mother's body.

With a muffled sound, the dagger sank into the worm's body, which happened to be the softest abdomen of the worm mother, and the whole body of the worm mother whose eyes had degenerated shook like a wave.

It realizes the pain, realizes that the danger is by its side!

With almost no time to react, the insect mother's small platoons showed unprecedented strength, carrying a body dozens of times larger and two saboteurs, and drilled towards the upward spreading feeding port.

Holding the dagger with all his strength, Bai Xing buried his whole body on the worm mother, dragging her with great force, as if experiencing a roller coaster with no safety measures and a sprinting trajectory at 90°.

With her eyes closed, she firmly protected her head between her arms, and her thighs were tightly stuck in the layers of flesh of the worm mother, so as to avoid being injured by the rapid friction of the soil layer.

Fortunately, her position was at the tail of the insect mother, and the hole that expanded after being squeezed by the thickest middle part of its body would not rub the smaller tail too much. Otherwise, with her naked eyes, she would be like this. Pulling it roughly into the hole may wear off half of the butt and scalp.

The road was winding and long. Bai Xing almost exhausted all his strength. His arms were close to losing his intuition, and then he heard a crisp "pop", and the sand that was constantly shaking stopped, and most of the narrow and dark feeling disappeared. .

The insect mother's sprint was blocked, like a squib, it squeezed out from the narrowest hole, ejected into the air, and fell back to the ground like a giant jellybean.

This unusual change instantly attracted the attention of the individual soldier responsible for observing the battlefield.

"Insect mother?" The scout on the main ship was the first to discover the abnormality at the edge of the battlefield. He was ecstatic and quickly reported this discovery to the top leader through the optical brain, the federal government corps: deputy of the [-]th corps. In front of Commander Yuan Xitong.

"Have you found the worm mother?" Yuan Xitong followed the coordinates to the bow of the ship, and the optical brain attached to his ear quickly cut out a high-magnification zoom, and locked on a pink fat mass of meat that suddenly appeared on the distant hillside.

The meat ball was still rolling on the ground. Compared with the combat adults fighting fiercely with the federal soldiers on the battlefield, this meat ball looked much smaller, but there was no doubt that this was the mother of this group of slugs.

The insect swarm led by this insect mother has been engaged in a tug-of-war with the Federal Sixth Army for several days.

They are proficient in using tactical plans such as fighting while retreating and attacking east and west. They will also identify and harass the Federation's individual scout soldiers, and try to lure the Sixth Army to other places several times.

But through the analysis of the entire combat team, they are now not too far away from the final lair of this group of Zerg, but no one could have imagined that the hiding place has always been the most mysterious, and until the end of the battle, there may not be any insect mothers who will appear on their own initiative. exposed to the battlefield.

This undoubtedly gave the Sixth Army a big surprise.

Originally, the insect swarm that was constantly dealing with the individual soldiers of the Sixth Legion was also keenly aware of the breath of the insect mother, and they all paid attention to the small hillside, and it was obvious that the gene of the guardian was stimulated, and the gene hidden in the ground was originally hidden. The reserve forces here also had to get out one after another.

The mechas on the ground and the combat ships assisting in mid-air have not yet separated themselves from the chaotic battlefield to pay attention to the changes in the distance. A wave of flying slugs with wings and catching feet that have evolved into sickles capable of cutting metal have begun to move their positions. , to rush towards the direction of the insect mother to protect it.

"So it's hidden there." Yuan Xitong was surprised that these slugs were becoming more and more advanced in intelligence. He was worried and a little excited at the same time.

The proportion of this insect mother is smaller than that of the insect mother they captured a few months ago. This shows that the speed of the insect mother's alternate evolution has obviously accelerated.

How many such insect mothers are there on D-49?

Although the resources brought by the swarm will be considerable and rich in proportion to their number, but with the blows, the wisdom and body structure of the swarm are also constantly improving.

Someone at the Federation Headquarters had already calculated the data, and the probability of highly intelligent individuals appearing among the Zerg was increasing year by year.

Every year, the manpower and material resources that the Federation has to spend to suppress the swarms are increasing. Every time an extermination operation takes place, the legion in charge of the battle will have to undergo a long period of training in order to make up for the loss.

"Fight the combat slugs with all our strength, let the seven to eleven groups of mech soldiers on the periphery start the No. [-] plan, compress the range of action of the slugs to the place where the flying ship can strike, release light bombs, and quickly clean up the entire battlefield!"

Deputy Commander Yuan Xitong marked several important points on the map in mid-air, and made a huge X on the coordinates where the worm mother was found. With the assistance of the sub-captains in the operation room, almost at the same time, Send combat commands to the machines of each auxiliary ship, combat ship, combat armor and auxiliary ship.

"Let Yuan Xilong, the main wing of the third ship, cut through alone to prevent the slug from rescuing the mother. If necessary, shoot the mother directly."

After the order was issued, the somewhat confused battle situation seemed to be rectified. The flying ships stopped their offensive one after another, and only used burst shots to assist the heavy armored soldiers and light armored soldiers on the ground to either attract or force the slugs back. A small battle circle was formed piece by piece.

All this happened to fall into the eyes of Bai Xing, who had just recovered.

She poked her head out from behind the exhausted worm mother, and a bizarre scene was reflected in her clear pupils.

The dark night sky is vast and boundless, and there are countless stars. The purple-orange streamer lays out a long Milky Way. Stars, big and small, are sprinkled on it like gems, and disappear into the ground.

Under such a fantastic background, there is a barren desert with no green plants. However, you can see large and infiltrating strange bugs emerging from the dense holes on the ground. Some of them have tall jointed limbs. The spread of its wings is comparable to that of a flying ship that is shaped like a small dagger. With one swing of the two claws, the flying ship can be cut into a crack with sparks flying.

The flying ship fighting against it will not sit still and wait for death. It shoots blue cold light from its two wing points. When it hits the flying insect, a green blood hole will be opened, and a large amount of green blood will be splashed out.

In addition to the flying strange insects, there is also an insect on the ground whose outer shell has evolved into a black armor. The insect's head is red and its mouthparts are very small, but it can detect countless red veins that spray venom. The one who fights with it is a There are two kinds of ground humanoid fighting mechas, a large one and a small one. They are larger than the mechas Shirahoshi saw in the worm's belly, and they are equipped with different weapons and tools from shoulders to feet.

But apart from the fact that the heavy-duty light bullets can cause a little damage to this kind of bug, the "armor" of this bug is almost indestructible, and the red glowing venom that can be sprayed from its mouthparts can instantly melt the outer shell of the mecha.

The two forces fought fiercely, and countless complex lights, shadows and fireworks were intertwined, making Bai Xing unable to move his eyes away.

In the distance, a group of flying insects with flapping wings locked onto the position of the insect mother. She took a deep breath, rubbed her eyes, and cursed fiercely.

"I hate bugs the most!"
