My sampan can be upgraded

Ling Qi used his spiritual sense to explore the cave where the earth-boring worms came out. The entrance of the cave inclined downward at an angle of nearly sixty degrees, and began to lead horizontally to the outside of the city at a depth of more than 100 meters. The worms inside were still rushing in desperately. He knew that the insects would not stop pouring out until the insect tide ended, so he could only continue to guard the entrance of the cave.

The other four cave entrances were also piled up with insect corpses to form a crater, but it was not as regular as Ling Qi's. The crater here was as perfect as a work of art.

After another half an hour, the insect tide finally receded, and the combatants on the city wall collapsed to the ground from exhaustion. Bai Yu and Chu Hong appeared beside Ling Qi, and then Ao Ying and Xiaorou appeared again.

"How is the situation?" Ling Qi asked, and casually patted some large insect corpses, using the collection skill to collect the insect cores.

Bai Yu was the first to say: "The buried people have been dug out, and the survival rate is less than 30%."

Chu Hong also nodded, indicating that the situation was similar. They went to two other places where buildings collapsed, used their spiritual sense to detect the buried people, and directed rescue operations. As for the people who were eaten by bugs, it goes without saying.

"Just do your best, let's follow the bug to the bug lair." After Ling Qi said that, he took the lead and shot towards the south outside the city. In the other direction, Ao Kuan dodged twice in succession and was already far outside the city.

"Well, is there anyone taking action now?" Some people in the city and in the battleship group above noticed that Ling Qi and others were following the bug out of the city, and they immediately guessed that they were going to start hunting the female bug. In the past two minutes or so, the cold and charming young woman and the mammoth blood warriors chased each other out of the city, and then there were figures from other directions in the city and among the battleships who fled out of the city.

Obviously, after someone takes the initiative, others don't want to wait any longer.

There are many caves with a diameter of less than one meter outside the city, which are passages for small beetles. Ling Qiwu and the others were extremely fast. They tracked all the way to 30 kilometers away, and then they gradually saw some cave entrances that were more than ten meters tall. If you explore with your spiritual sense, these caves lead to the mountains in the distance.

With a sense of consciousness to investigate, Ling Qi looked stunned and took the lead in chasing into one of the caves. I don’t know if this kind of tunnel was drilled by earth-boring worms. It is 15 to 20 meters wider inside and has fewer turns. The surface seems to have been tamped and solidified by the worms using special means. The cave wall is solid and solid, with traces like circles of tapping. . On the cave wall, there are many small holes of one to two meters leading to other places.

"It would be quite suitable if used to build subway passages!" Ling Qi couldn't help but have such an idea.

Their speed did not slow down and they continued to advance rapidly underground. To their surprise, the insect retreated so quickly that they had not yet caught up with it.

After traveling underground for more than a hundred kilometers along the large passage, Ling Qi estimated that he was approaching or even entering the mountains. In his consciousness, he found that there were many small beetles dormant in most of the small caves, so he guessed that he was close to the mother beetle. nest.

The five of them slowed down, using their spiritual senses to explore the path while continuing to go deeper. They tried not to disturb the little bugs, but after advancing for more than ten kilometers, two iron beetles were guarding the main passage like door gods. Behind them were a large number of first-level bugs. It was no longer possible to sneak into the village without shooting. possible.

"Use lightning tactics to quickly kill and advance to avoid being surrounded by a large number of bugs." Ling Qi used his spiritual sense to transmit a message to the other four people, and then rushed towards the bugs first. Their charging speed was too fast, causing a scream that broke through the air, and a commotion of insects a few hundred meters away.

There were two crackling sounds, and two bolts of lightning crossed the sky, instantly killing the iron beetle. Ling Qi was the first to clear the way, firing volleys of large and small arcs in the thunder field, crushing them all the way, leaving only insect corpses everywhere they passed, and the four people behind them didn't even have a chance to take action.

A strange aura spread in the insect cave, and the insect swarms crawled out from countless small caves, converging into a torrent and rushing towards the five people. It's just that no matter how many of these low-level bugs there are, they will be chopped to death as soon as they enter the mine field, and they will not be able to form any obstacle to the five people.

After a few minutes, the passage became wider and wider, and most of the bugs blocking the front turned into iron beetles, among which there were also extremely agile green beetles and cockroaches that were more than ten meters in size. Finally, the space widened, and the five people entered the insect nest area that was nearly 100 meters wide.

What confused a few people was that there were solidified mucus crystals above the nest and on the surrounding cave walls, and there were unsolidified mucus and rows of neatly stacked eggs on the ground, but the female worm was nowhere to be seen.

The eggs hatch very quickly, and new larvae break out of the shell every moment, devouring the nutrients in the shell and mucus and maturing rapidly.

"Will the mother worm still escape?" Ling Qi was surprised. He waved his hand and fired a bolt of lightning, killing a giant springtail that pounced in the air. Under the investigation with his spiritual sense, Ling Qi saw a small amount of mucus in a passage diagonally downwards, so he called a few people to chase it. As it passed through the air, thousands of thunders in the thunder field were fired, destroying the insect eggs below.

More bugs poured out from the surrounding passages and rushed towards the five people crazily. All these bugs are Level 2 or above, and some of them are small mantises but reach Level 4. As long as they reach level three or above, Ling Qi will easily collect the insect cores and essence insect meat.

Chu Hong and Bai Yu also collected insect cores. After investigating with their spiritual sense, they knew the location of the insect cores in the insect corpses. After killing the insects, they stabbed and picked the insect cores with their energy swords, and got the insect cores in their hands. .

After chasing for nearly ten kilometers, leaving behind a passage full of insect corpses, Ling Qi's consciousness discovered that a larger insect nest appeared in front of him. A two to three hundred meter long cockroach-like insect covered in mucus lay in the center of the nest. Its wings were only a few meters short, and it seemed to have been severely degraded with only a few features left.

"The level of this female insect must be above level five. It may have been transported directly from the rear of the Zerg. It is impossible for the Zerg here to evolve above level five in just twenty days." Ling Qi communicated with his spiritual sense. The scene he saw with his divine sense was directly presented in the minds of Ao Ying and Xiao Rou, as if he shared his divine sense with them.

At the same time, he carefully searched the insect nest to rule out the possibility of spatial cracks.

The ground and caves around the insect nest are guarded by densely packed fourth-level mantis insects. Compared with the large insect bodies of other fourth-level insect soldiers that can often reach nearly a hundred meters, their body size is only more than four meters long, and their strength is extremely condensed. A cold light shone on his limbs.

"Fortunately, there were not a large number of these insects in the swarm attacking the city, otherwise it would be really hard to prevent them!" Ling Qi secretly gasped.

The five people rushed into the insect nest, like a ladle of water poured into a hot oil pan, arousing a shocking reaction. All the bugs acted almost at the same time and pounced on the place where the five people appeared.

As soon as the five people appeared, Bai Yu and Chu Hong stepped aside and spread out their own fields. They held two-meter-long energy swords in their hands to kill the insects coming in front.

Ao Ying and Xiaorou were in charge of the rear. Ao Ying waved the dark electric energy knife in her hand to chop away the insects approaching from behind. A sharp claw blade popped up from the back of Xiaorou's hand, which was born with an energy matrix. After she circulated the blood energy, it expanded into a meter-long energy claw. Every time she waved, it could cut the insect into several pieces.

From the front, Ling Qi's movements were even slower. As soon as he rushed in, he locked the female insect's head and punched her, her fist glowing with a blazing white light. Sensing the crisis, the mother insect suddenly jumped up and emitted an infrasound wave. This infrasound wave did not attenuate much in the field. It swept directly through the five people's bodies, causing the five people's bodies to convulse and feel uncomfortable.

Ling Qi frowned and endured the intense discomfort, activating the bullet time visual effects. With the blessing of divine consciousness, the effect of bullet time was strengthened countless times, and the movement of the female insect was no different from stillness in his eyes. After adjusting the angle slightly, he fired the destroyer cannon energy beam with one swipe, instantly hitting the female insect's head.

Back in the Jingyue Empire, Ling Qi used the strength of the planetary realm to shoot energy beams that could hurt Weina, who was in the first grade of high school. Now that he has reached the galaxy realm, the increase in energy intensity has greatly improved the power of the destroyer cannon skills, and there is also the Ancient Thunder Dragon. With an increase of four times, the lethality has far exceeded that of a real destroyer.

However, the female insect was unharmed after suffering this blow, but she looked a little dizzy and stopped emitting infrasound waves.

What a powerful defense! Ling Qi spread out the five fingers of his right hand, and a dark spear appeared in his hand. The gun body and the spear head were integrated, and the low profile contained supreme power. He dodged and appeared with a thunderous sound at the head of the female insect, which was tens of meters tall. He held the gun with both hands and stabbed the female insect's head with the help of speed.

With a pop, the spear easily broke through the female insect's defense, and most of it sank into the female insect's head.

Ling Qi was shocked. This spear was a semi-artifact seized from the space ring of the reclusive protoss. He had a name called "Kaishan". He hasn't fully studied the key array for refining the spear, and even before activating the matrix inside the spear, he already possesses such huge power. No wonder he named it "Kaishan".

The nearly 100-meter-long blood bar above the mother worm leaked wildly and was reduced by half in an instant. Ling Qi felt that the female insect still had the strength to struggle. In order to prevent it from absorbing the life essence in the body to heal its wounds, he transferred a huge amount of electric energy and poured it into the spear, hoping to achieve a decisive kill like the first time he killed the female insect.

The next moment, the part of the spear that was immersed in the female insect's body suddenly triggered a powerful energy explosion effect.

boom!

Under Ling Qi's unbelievable eyes, the female insect's head was blasted with a huge hole more than ten meters deep, and the health bar was drained.

"This is the passive effect mentioned in the appraisal conclusion. It has a certain chance of triggering explosion damage and is extremely powerful!" Ling Qi was ecstatic. It was indeed a semi-divine weapon. After he refined it, its power would be terrifying.

"It's a pity that it came from a shady way and cannot be used openly!" Ling Qi sighed inwardly, but his hand movements were not slow, activating the collection skills again and again.

As soon as the female insect died, the remaining insects of this clan became even more crazy and flew at the five people in a suicidal manner. Even Ling Qi, who was standing on the female insect, was attacked intensively. He drew out his spear and stabbed out the spear flowers randomly to kill the insects, while continuing to collect the essence of life.

After a moment, when the captain's system prompted that the target did not exist, Ling Qi received thirty-seven drops of life essence. Ling Qi felt that this amount was wrong. Last time, the female insect that was only at the second level provided eighteen drops. How could this female insect, which was at least the fifth level, not even get twice as much?

He changed several positions and continued collecting, but the prompt he received still said that the target did not exist. On the other hand, the essence of insect meat is very heavy. Each time you collect it, you can get a large piece weighing one ton. It seems that the proportion of nutritious insect meat in the mother insect far exceeds that of other insects.

"Part of the life essence should have been consumed when reproducing those insect eggs!" Ling Qi thought of the insect eggs destroyed in the first insect nest, guessed the reason, and stopped worrying.

After studying the data, he knew that the eggs were not produced inside the body of the mother worm, but were produced outside the body under the auspices of the mother worm according to the unique life rules of the Zerg race. In other words, organic synthesis was more appropriate. In this process, part of the life essence needs to be consumed. A drop of life essence can produce thousands of insect eggs. The mother insect has supreme authority over the lives of the insects she produces, and can kill all the insects with a single thought.

Ling Qi left the mother insect and helped eliminate the surrounding insects while collecting insect cores.

Chu Hong saw Ling Qi coming down to kill the insects and said in shock: "Go find the essence of life, we can handle it."

"Already collected, only thirty-seven drops." Ling Qi told the truth and did not hide the quantity. As teammates, both Chu Hong and Bai Yu can share the spoils.

Bai Yu said in surprise: "So fast? But it's good to have so many. I heard that some teams worked very hard to kill the female worms, and the life essence has been absorbed by the female worms. All their hard work was in vain."

"Well, the old immortal Zhenli led his team to hunt down a female insect of a similar level at the edge of the wild area, and he didn't even get anything." Chu Hong also said.

There seemed to be no end to the insects. The five of them kept killing them for four hours. The insect corpses almost filled the insect nest, and they evacuated while killing them.
