Tide-like reptiles swept across the tree trunks, and quickly attacked the three of them.
Bai Yue and Shang Yufei quickly ducked back and fired at the same time. However, Sikong Xing was still standing in the same place as if it had been petrified.
Bai Yue: "Sikong Xing!"
Hearing his own name, the man seemed to regain his senses and turned his head to look back.
Behind him, the reptiles woven into a fine net, two or three meters high, and fell forward!
Bai Yue pulled the trigger and fired a lot of bullets in a row. But there were so many of them that as soon as they punched through a few holes, other black worms came up.
Shang Yufei clicked his tongue, leaped to the nearby tree trunk, and kicked it sharply. The big tree swayed a few times in the same place, and fell down in front of Sikong Xing.
The dense web woven by the worms disperses instantly. But there are still a few that did not escape in time and were crushed under the tree. Green liquid splashes.
The crawlers are reunited again, and the dense web is being reorganized.
Bai Yue: "Run!"
Sikong Xing finally made a move. He stepped back and came close to the two of them.
Bai Yue: "It's okay."
Sikong Xing wiped his face and wiped the liquid from his face.
"fine."
The voice sounded calm and seemed completely unaffected.
But this calm tone may be the real abnormality for Sikong Xing.
Bai Yue looked back: "I know you are in a mess right now. But... this opponent must not be taken lightly."
Sikong Xing stood there, watching the man behind the dense net.
The other party had a good smile on his face, as usual. It's just that the compound eyes with several pupils make people feel extremely unfamiliar.
Shang Yufei frowned: "Come on!"
As soon as the voice fell, the overwhelming insects flooded over again.
The three were blocked outside the sea of insects. All the bullets shot hit the "barrier", unable to injure Admiral Sikong in the slightest.
Although he used a pheromone attack unexpectedly just now. But as long as these crawlers don't disappear, they can't really take down the enemy.
If it goes on like this, it's just a waste of bullets.
"What, is there nothing?"
Admiral Sikong's slightly smiling voice came from the front.
"Don't waste each other's time, just do it. This way, at least it will make your death less painful."
With a few clicks, the magazine was empty. Bai Yue threw away the empty magazine and replaced it with new bullets.
Hearing Admiral Sikong's words, he couldn't help laughing: "Sure enough, the words of coexistence are false."
The nonsense he said in the office before this guy's intentions were fully revealed.
"It's true." Admiral Sikong smiled, "Your body will be the most perfect prop to coexist with the great soul of the Insect Emperor."
Insect King
Another new noun. Bai Yue remained calm, and after finishing the oncoming wave of reptiles, he retreated to Shang Yufei's side.
"You go to the nest."
Shang Yufei frowned slightly: "What?"
"It's going to go on and on."
With the protection of these endless insects, they can't even get close, and they will be interfered by each other's pheromones.
Only by solving the source first like last time can there be an opportunity.
In terms of strength, among the three, he will be less affected by pheromones. Under the restraint of the pheromone by the Sikong, the movements of the other two people were visibly slow.
During the conversation, another wave of attacks hit. The two dodged in time and were forced to distance themselves.
"No." Shang Yufei rejected the proposal.
Bai Yue was stunned.
The forest was completely overrun by insects.
They have obviously eliminated many reptiles, but the corpses of those insects are nowhere to be found.
Maybe it was eaten by the same kind later; or maybe it was run over by the body of the same kind, and it was completely integrated with the soil.
Continue to spend here. The end that Bai Yue could see was only that the three of them were exhausted and completely fell into this endless abyss.
He said: "Then you stay here, I'll go..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted.
"No." The tone was stronger.
Bai Yue looked at Shang Yufei, and the other party also looked at him. The look is a little dark and inexplicable because the distance is too far.
Bai Yue: "But if this goes on, we may all die..."
"Why do you always think of acting alone!"
Shang Yufei approached and grabbed Bai Yue's wrist.
The two drew closer. This time, Bai Yue clearly saw the other party's expression.
The emotions in the eyes are complex, and it seems that there is more than just anger.
He felt the other's palm trembling invisibly.
Shang Yufei lowered his volume and clenched his fingers tightly: "Where are you going, where am I going."
"Bang bang bang!"
Another shot.
Sikong Xing put down his gun: "You go to the lair."
Hearing this, Bai Yue looked over.
The other party stood in a slightly forward position, only the outline behind the ear could be seen. The flaxen hair was soaked in the night, as if it had been dyed black.
Sikong Xing's strength is naturally worthy of trust, but his opponent is his biological father. It must be harder to fight than them.
As if feeling the anxiety of his companions, Sikong Xing's tone brought out a hint of lightness.
"Don't worry." He turned his head to look over, his amber eyes slightly curved, "Who do you think I am, I am not so easily disturbed."
The whole person seems to be back to normal. Just like the first day I saw it, arrogant and indomitable.
Bai Yue was silent for a moment: "... I understand, you have to be careful."
Sikong Xing smiled: "Of course."
Bai Yue looked at Shang Yufei again, grabbed the opponent's palm with his backhand, and tugged lightly: "Let's go."
Shang Yufei felt the warmth from his palm and glanced at Sikong Xing.
"Thanks."
The two ran outside the forest.
Admiral Sikong did not intend to let them go. Seeing that the two were going to run to the old nest, they directed the bugs to rush forward, blocking the way.
However, only a few deafening gunshots were heard. The bullets left a row of bullet holes on the road, and the sea of worms was intercepted halfway.
The two people were very fast, using such a gap to stand out from the encirclement, and their figures disappeared into the darkness.
Seeing the prey escape, Admiral Sikong felt unhappy and turned his eyes to the young man blocking the way.
"Leave a person alone? You'll regret it." Admiral Sikong's compound eyes couldn't stop rolling in anger.
The smile on Sikong Xing's face disappeared. He stared at the worm in human skin and raised his gun.
"hope so."
It was only an hour apart before and after, when he entered the office building again, and the inside had completely changed.
Looking around, it was full of white cobwebs. In the corners and ceilings, they are densely stacked together. There were no lights in the corridor, and occasionally a rustling sound could be heard on the ceiling, like reptiles passing by.
Rather than looking for a nest, it is better to say that this huge space has become a breeding ground for reptiles.
Time is running out. Sikong Xing may not be able to delay for too long, they must find the location of the eggs as soon as possible.
There is no one to follow this time, and we can only speculate on the basis of existing clues.
The prison lair is underground, and they should probably go in this direction too. The question is how to get down.
The office building is about seven or eight stories high, but there are no stairs leading to the ground.
"Go to the admiral's office first." Bai Yue said.
The admiral's office was on the top floor, and the lights were still on, and the bright white light filled the room.
The room was cluttered like a hurricane. The glass windows shattered, and the cold wind blew in. Fragments of the coffee cup were still lying on the ground, and the black liquid was running down the ground.
All four walls, including the ceiling, were left completely black. Probably a reptile passed by, causing the body to be stained with coffee liquid, rubbing everywhere.
Bai Yue stood still, staring at the blackness.
Shang Yufei noticed: "What's wrong?"
Bai Yue: "I'm thinking, since these bugs are all born from the nest, is it possible to counter-stalk."
Although they are elusive, there must be a way to get from the lair to the ground. If they go back the same way, they might be able to find their nest.
But after saying this, Bai Yue shook his head again: "It seems unlikely."
These bugs are fragile surrogates, and there is no need to return to the brood.
Shang Yufei folded his arms: "Then go find someone."
Bai Yue: "?"
"Colonel Xue's body is connected to the eggs, and that guy's body seems to be sucked dry."
Shang Yufei twitched the corners of his mouth, "Reproduction needs nutrients."
Bai Yue immediately understood what Shang Yufei meant.
Those black worms controlled by Admiral Sikong were definitely not created out of nothing. To be able to reproduce in such a large number, it must cost a lot.
"… "
These Zerg really completely treat humans as recyclable tools.
The more bugs they kill, the more soldiers will come and "voluntarily" go into the nest to provide nutrients for the eggs so that they can produce more offspring.
The battle situation on Sikong Xing's side should be fierce and the consumption is too high. Before long, several figures approached the office building in the dark.
They were uniformly dressed in military uniforms, and their expressions were all numb.
Bai Yue and Shang Yufei hid in the dark, when they saw a few people come in, they immediately circled behind them and followed.
The soldiers walked staggeringly, as if they had just been brought under control. Come to a door, push the door and enter.
Several figures disappeared behind the door. This time Shang Yufei didn't wait much, but rushed forward.
Kick the door, and the entrance to the nest just opens in front of you. If those people felt anything, they turned their heads and looked over.
Shang Yufei didn't entangle with them, and solved it directly and neatly. In just a few seconds, the wormhole seemed to sense a crisis and was about to close again.
Bai Yue's speed was very fast, and he stepped in directly. And reached out to Shang Yufei.
Shang Yufei only glanced at it, then reached out and grabbed the opponent's wrist. The two clasped their hands tightly.
Bai Yue exerted force and pulled the person towards him. The impact was so violent that his back hit the back wall.
The light disappears and the burrow closes.
"Go in."
Aware of the response from the mother's nest, Admiral Sikong opened his eyes and looked at the panting young man in front of him.
It took too long, and he was getting impatient. What's more, he has more important goals than this person.
"That's it."
Admiral Sikong walked up to the youth, "Even if there were no bugs, you wouldn't be able to beat me."
The young man propped up the ground with his gun in his hand, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Admiral Sikong was expressionless: "What are you laughing at?"
Sikong Xing raised his head, the corners of his mouth were hooked, but his expression was very indifferent: "You really have the face to say such a thing. This is obviously not your body."
Admiral Sikong was unmoved: "But now, it's mine."
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and attacked Sikong Xing.
Sikong Xing let out a sigh of relief and jumped back. But at the position where he was about to land, a stream of insects suddenly spewed out.
The body was soaring in the air, and it was too late to turn around. He aimed the gun at him, and was about to pull the trigger when he felt a shadow over his head.
Looking up, I saw another wave of insects attacking. The distance between the two sides is very close, no matter which side is attacked first, it may be approached by another wave.
Flanking from both sides.
"Bang!"
Hearing a loud noise, the ground merged with the black worm above, and the man in the middle was completely submerged by the black tide.
Admiral Sikong raised the corners of his mouth contentedly, and was about to go over to admire the new spoils when he suddenly stopped.
A tingling pain in the chest. Looking down, he saw that he was hit by a bullet, and blood gushed out.
It happened suddenly, and he had no time to prepare.
When he looked up, he realized that his black worm had not caught its prey. Sikong Xing was standing beside a tree not far away, the muzzle of the gun was aimed at him, and white smoke was slowly emerging.
Admiral Sikong: "You..."
Before he finished speaking, he pulled the trigger again.
But this time he was prepared, and the black insects were densely covered.
Sikong Xing loaded the bullet: "As expected of the old man's body, it's really strong."
"It's so sturdy, how could it be..."
He slowed down and swallowed the second half of the sentence. Turning to look at the person next to him: "Thank you. If it wasn't for you, I would have almost died."
When he was at the end of the road, he still wanted to keep detonating the grenade, but he was taken out one step before he made a move.
Mu Sihan looked at him, and before he opened his mouth, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Sikong Xing was shocked: "Are you alright?"
Mu Sihan wiped away the blood: "It's okay."
After a pause, he said, "The movement was too big, and the ribs pierced the internal organs."
Sikong Xing was stunned: "...It doesn't sound like it's okay at all."
Mu Sihan didn't reply, and turned to look at the man standing in the sea of worms. The black bugs rolled on the ground, just about to move.
He picked up the pistol: "I can't make a bigger move next, I can only cover the perimeter."
Sikong Xing retracted his gaze, and also looked at "Father" not far away.
Mu Sihan: "The two of you together, let's buy time."
