Doomsday Totem

Chapter 316 Trouble
After receiving the order to rest in place, Mu Qianhe got out of the car, leaned against the stone wall inside the platform with his arms folded, and closed his eyes to rest.From the moment she left Dawn Fortress, she hadn't closed her eyes. Coupled with the previous battles and the continuous rush, she was already a little sleepy.But it's not time to sleep yet, she can only take a nap to recover a little bit of energy.

In fact, Tie Slag originally disapproved of her coming here, because mechas cannot be used in the Abyss, and she is an ordinary woman, not only can't play the role of an ace pilot, but also has many inconveniences.But she insisted on coming, Tie Slag just persuaded her a few words, but failed to convince her, so he didn't say anything, it was a tacit consent.She knew him well, she knew that he was used to having women by his side, so as long as she insisted, he could get his approval.

At the same time, she also knows her own advantages, she is not as weak as Qin Ke'er, nor as delicate as Eva Green and Mu Yuqin Xin.To put it bluntly, she is cost-effective, her life is not that valuable, and her strength is not bad, just like the wild wolf mecha produced by Wilderness Heavy Industry, she can run, jump, fight and resist. Although the overall performance is average, the price is better Moderate and good value for money.In terms of self-awareness and identity positioning, she is a smart woman, both realistic and clear.Over the years, it is precisely because of this self-knowledge and wisdom that she has been able to maintain a long-term and stable relationship with Assistant Green who is much higher than her.

But what she didn't know was that in this respect, she was very similar to Ye Xinling back then, and because of this, she won Tie Zha's trust and closeness.If the similarities between her and Lina were the reason for their acquaintance, then the commonality between her and Ye Xinling was the reason why they finally came together and climbed onto the same bed.It's just that compared to the former, she is more kind and less cruel.

While thinking, she suddenly heard a soft rustling sound behind her ears.At first she didn't care, thinking it was just an illusion.But with the passage of time, not only did the fine sound not disappear, but it became more dense and clearer.She quickly realized the problem, then frowned slightly, and listened carefully, trying to find out the source of the sound.

"Da la la la... da la la la... da la la la..." The soft sound seemed to come from the stone wall behind her. After realizing this, she quickly turned her body to receive the sound waves from the helmet. Affixed to the stone wall.

"Da la la la... da la la la... da la la la... da la la la... da la la la... da la la la... da la la la..." As she got closer, The movement in the stone wall became extremely clear, and the sound was like the soft sound of countless thin bamboo strips falling on the stone.

"Dala la la... da la la la... da la la la... da la la la... da la la la... da la la la... da la la la..."

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the movement in the stone wall became more and more loud, as if thousands of bamboo sticks were hitting a hard object at the same time.Until then, Mu Qianhe finally heard it, his face turned pale, he instinctively took a step back, and shouted loudly: "Be careful! There are abyssal termites! Repeat! Be careful! There are abyssal termites!"

"Quickly prepare the flamethrower! Hurry up!" Mu Qianhe shouted anxiously.

But before she finished speaking, the stone wall in front of her suddenly trembled, and with a sound of "crash...", it collapsed down on her head and face.She hurriedly jumped back, narrowly avoiding the falling gravel.Immediately afterwards, with the stone wall in front of her as the center, the landslide rapidly extended to both sides.

"Crash... blah... blah... blah... blah... blah... blah..."

In an instant, the sand and rocks collapsed, the smoke and dust filled the air, and a large area of ​​the surrounding stone walls was continuously crossed.

"Chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp..."

Accompanied by the collapse of the stone wall, dense shrill sounds came from inside, piercing people's eardrums with pain.At the same time, a large number of termites poured out from the landslide. The number was indescribably large, and it made one's scalp tingle.

They are as big as a newborn calf, dragging their swollen milky-white belly, one after another, they drilled out of the deep pit behind them.Crowded together layer upon layer, they kept swinging their long tentacles, shaking their triangular-shaped heads, their mouthparts were split in four, and inside were covered with fine fangs. Hissing harshly at humans.

Seeing the infiltrating scene, a panicked Marine pulled off the fragmentation grenade hanging on his chest, and was about to bite open the tab and smash it out.

"Don't use the grenade!" And just before the former shot, Mu Qianhe, whose face was a little pale, happened to see it, and hurriedly shouted to stop, using a grenade in such a place would cause a larger landslide at any time.As long as one is not careful, everyone will be buried here.

At the same time, termite colonies gathered at the landslide rushed towards humans.

"Flame thrower! Flame thrower!" After stopping the soldiers who dropped the bomb, Mu Qianhe looked at the swarming termite colony and shouted loudly while stepping back.

However, just as she took a few steps back, a figure passed by her and crashed into the termite colony.In an instant, the figure with a light golden luster was using both fists and feet, like a harvester breaking into a flock of sheep, sweeping the termites around him to pieces, and flying around with broken limbs and broken arms.

Then, Jerome, Match, Tuobasan, Marcus, Hillman, Billy, Judith and other power armor fighters joined the battle group one after another, and quickly suppressed the termite colony that rushed out of the gap.These abyssal termites looked terrifying, but in fact, they were like lambs without any resistance in front of the power armor warriors.

Afterwards, the marines with fuel bottles on their backs and flamethrowers returned to the gap in the landslide, stood in a row, raised the one-meter-long nozzle, and sprayed high-pressure fuel into it.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey..."

Amidst the violent eruption, flames poured into the darkness, burning the inside of the stone wall red.

"Chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp..."

The tragic neighing sound immediately resounded through the platform and spread far away.Not long after, there was no more sound in the landslide.After the temperature dropped, the marines walked into the gap with the flamethrower and sprayed the surrounding holes for a while.

Afterwards, Tie Slag dismissed the marines and took Bai Xiaoyun and Jerome in to investigate the situation.Abyss termites are not very lethal, but they are one of the most troublesome abyss species for humans.

To be precise, they, like humans, like to dig their nests on cliffs.Just as the so-called peers are like enemies, termites in the abyss are a serious threat to the human fortress.This place is less than twenty kilometers away from the Fortress of the Meditators. According to the textbook, the nests of termites in the abyss can stretch for hundreds of kilometers.This means that if left unattended, the ant nest is likely to dig through.

"What do you think?" Iron Slag pretended to be looking at the tunnel dug by termites, and asked seemingly casually.His knowledge of the abyss is limited to Eva Green's individual tutoring.On the one hand, the latter didn't have much private time, and it took only a few days to spend all of it with him; on the other hand, the two opposite sexes lived in the same room, and they were lovers, so it was inevitable to do other things.

Therefore, his abyss course only goes to the "introduction" part, and has not gone deep into the specific "content".For most of the creatures in the bottomless abyss, he knew what they looked like, could name them, and knew how to attack them, but he knew nothing about their habits and the like.

"Hmm..." Jerome stared at the tunnel, pondered for a while, and said, "Judging from the number just now and the width of the tunnel, this is a medium-sized ant nest. fortress."

"I agree, we must find a way to eradicate them, otherwise it will be very troublesome in the future." Bai Xiaoyun squatted on the ground, flipping through a relatively intact carcass of termites and said, "This is the abyss of the second metamorphosis stage. Termites, and judging from the development of worker ants, they will soon enter the third metamorphosis stage, and I am afraid that it will be more troublesome then."

"Huh?" Tie Slag glanced at Bai Xiaoyun, who immediately understood and explained in detail.

Abyssal termites in the third metamorphosis period are also called iron-eating termites.They can not only devour iron ore, grow iron worm shells, but also slowly dig hard rock areas, which are the natural enemies of human fortresses.

In order to avoid being blamed, Bai Xiaoyun briefly explained the subsequent form of the abyssal termite.

The abyssal termites in the fourth metamorphosis period are also called-spirit-eating termites.As the name suggests, it is a termite that can devour spiritual ore, absorb spiritual star sand, and grow spiritual flying wings.The fifth stage of metamorphosis is called oil-eating termites, which are termites that can swallow black oil and breathe high-temperature flames.

Under normal circumstances, the abyss termites in the first and second metamorphosis stages pose relatively little threat to the human fortress, while the third and fourth metamorphosis stages pose the greatest threat. As for the fifth metamorphosis stage, there is no threat.Because the abyss termites in the fifth metamorphosis period have a certain amount of wisdom, they will actively avoid the domain of powerful creatures, such as magic dragons, great demons, and human fortresses.

"And then?" Tie Slag asked.What he cared about was how to deal with the current situation, not what the advanced form of abyssal termites could do.

"Captain, this is not a problem that can be solved in a short time. I suggest that we go back to the fortress first, and then send people over for exploration after we settle down." Jerome explained, "The specific exploration method is to shoot the tracker Into the body of surviving termite worker ants, so as to investigate the structure and condition of the entire ant nest."

Iron Slag thought for a while, and then agreed with Jerome.

In fact, he has other ideas. He has scouts for soldier ants, trackers and so on, which is completely unnecessary.After the personnel were arranged, he came over alone, but it was more convenient.
