"I really convinced you." Han Qing sighed slightly and said, "Really, don't think so much. Come with me."

He took off the headlamp hanging on the wall, took it in his hand, and walked deep into the cave. The tunnel inside is extremely long, and the caves extend in all directions, and I don't know where they lead.

Han Qing led Lin Yining all the way down, there was the sound of water in the bottom cave, they walked in, and Lin Yining saw a thin stream of water.

There is sand beside the water, and with the dim light, you can see a few traces of being dug.

"This is the tomb of my teacher and colleagues." Han Qing stared at the place and said, "A total of thirteen of us entered the novice dungeon, eight of us died, and I only buried three of them."

Lin Yining said, "What do you mean?"

"It means that I won't lie to you before the ghosts of my relatives and friends." Han Qing's eyes were confused: "After I came to this place, I thought about it for a long time, and I think I should still be a little in awe."

"Then you should follow the Romans and believe in a god of light." Lin Yining was not moved by his words, and said flatly, "Obviously, no god or Buddha can save you now."

"Yes, I have to save myself." Han Qing smiled self-deprecatingly: "Putting you in, indeed, I have a plan that needs your cooperation. This plan is a bit dangerous, you have to trust me."

"Oh." Lin Yining said: "You answer my question first. Why did you come in?"

"Don't worry. Listen to me." Han Qing said: "Do you know what the novice dungeon we entered the game is?"

"Ghosts in a deserted village." Lin Yining said, "It was later confirmed by a science program that it's a rare sight for donkey friends."

"You can think so." Han Qing smiled. He took Lin Yining to a pit and sat down. He took out a bottle of some liquid from his bag and sprinkled it around, saying, "Wen Yu What Lin said is true. We came to the mutation valley to find the source of the mutation. After we met the strange things that the donkey friends said, we immediately understood what the mission objective said was to find the root of everything. What's the meaning."

"So you went straight into the Variation Valley?"

"Indeed. According to the results of our investigation at the time, the source of the mutation is at the end of the water flow, not at the source of the water. To be precise, it is here. Although Wen Yulin is not a human anymore, she has inherited the human form of the worm. Her caution and your inference are the result of her misleading." Han Qing said: "After a series of attacks and fleeing, we lost two or three companions, and finally fled here."

Lin Yining nodded and hummed.

"The traces of our activities in the cave are enough to support what I just said." He continued: "Because what we experienced was only a novice copy, so although the task is the same, the difficulty is very small. At that time, the female worm only controlled her one person."

"I can guess the rest. She should be good at sowing dissension." Lin Yining said: "Finally I know why you reacted to her like this. You must have been deceived by her very badly." Lin Yining said He made a sound, expressed his sympathy politely, and said, "Poor."

"Indeed, as her fiancé, I have always felt that I have the obligation to protect her." Han Qing sighed a long time, and said, "In short, I finally grasped a critical point and took the rest of the people to complete the task. "

"What?" Lin Yining couldn't help asking.

"She is directly controlled by the mother worm. After she is done, the mother worm will call her back to the nest and make her a breeding ground for the larvae to grow. But there was an accident, and she became the second mother worm."

What happens when there are two females in the Zerg? Do female worms fight with female worms, or does the swarm split

Han Qing gave him the answer: "The first female worm lost and escaped with some of the worms. So now, this copy actually has two female worms."

Lin Yining thought: "The goal of the mission is to find the source, which is to solve the weakened female worm. It seems that this is a shortcut."

"It's not just a shortcut, it's a bug." Han Qing said, "That's why I had the guts to enter the dungeon with the team of the prison gang. I know this bug. Using this, even if their team is completely wiped out, I can go out too."

"You underestimate the enemy." Lin Yining helped him and added: "The copy of twenty people is within the scope of a large force. It will not be so easy for them to sacrifice a large number of people to explore the way. Moreover, if it is only you If you go out alone, then you are the owner of this copy, and you will offend the people in the prison to death. It seems that there is something valuable here."

"Why can't I come in because I hate Wen Yulin?" He asked back.

"Do you believe it?" Lin Yining said indifferently: "You and her really look like a couple, and you never get distracted by making up lies."

"Well, let me tell the truth." He said: "This dungeon is rich in a kind of precious material, and the market price is around 500 gold coins per gram."

Lin Yining choked for breath, and he could tell how high the price was.

"And it was her that made me miscalculate." Han Qing said, "I didn't know until I entered the dungeon that she has been waiting for me."

"You have seen her outside the dungeon, which means that the game still recognizes her as a player." Lin Yining also thought of it: "Since she still has the identity of a player, the reason why she can't make a dungeon is..."

"She wants to kill the defeated female worm completely and pass the instance as a player. I guess she thinks so." Han Qing pawed the ground twice and said, "The defeated female worm hid too well She can't find it at all, and she can only rely on the abilities of other players who entered the instance. Now, she has a new target, and that is me, and I am more reliable than any other player."

"It's well edited." Lin Yining said.

"As I said, according to my plan, there will definitely be a high success rate, but there must be enough trust." As he spoke, he dug out a bottle from the ground. Although the outside of the bottle was covered with thick Dirt, but still revealing a fishy smell.

"This is a part of the defeated female worm. We can use it to lure Wen Yulin over and let her deal with the defeated female worm. As long as the female worm dies, we can pass the instance."

"The dangerous thing about this plan is that you are very likely to face her directly." Han Qing said: "But don't be afraid, here, her enemies are everywhere, as long as she dares to come, someone will naturally deal with her."

Han Qing handed Lin Yining the remains of the bottle of female worm, and he told Lin Yining: "Go through the underground river and go down, there is a stone room there."

"That's where the other female worm was?"

"No, we can't get close to the mother insect directly, so it's the nursery of another group of insects." He said: "The nursery is the most important position among the Zerg after the mother, and there are a large number of Zerg stationed there. .As long as this bag of powder is sprinkled in the nursery, a large amount of the female worm's aura will give Wen Yulin the location information. Both of them will lose, and we will benefit."

Lin Yining took the bottle of powder and smiled: "I hope you didn't fool me."

"We can go together," Han Qing said.

He wrapped the bottle of powder in an oilcloth, and the two of them went down the dark river. Sure enough, after swimming seven or eight hundred meters, after passing through many forked roads, Han Qing motioned him to go ashore, where there was another cave.

The two of them didn't turn on the light, and walked forward in the dark. At the end of the road was a stone room. On the outer wall, one could vaguely see layer after layer of wriggling bugs.

At another fork, there were still a few half-person tall black beetles wandering around. Han Qing calls this black beetle a soldier chute, which is named after the soldier ants among ants. They have the responsibility of guarding the nest.

There were not only the stumps of the injured female worm in Han Qing's place, but also some of the worms with various responsibilities. Dry them, grind them into powder and sprinkle them on your body to hide them from soldiers and insects.

They have been living in a dark lair, relying on their sense of smell. According to Han Qing, this trick is not easy to reveal.

They were pretending to be the worms responsible for feeding the larvae. When they heard the soldier worms coming, the two stood obediently in place and let them inspect them. The half-person tall black beetle has six legs and a pair of pointy pincers. They touched the two of them with pliers, and the tentacles with mucus on the top of their heads wrapped around Lin Yining's body. After they wiped them hard twice, they pushed him out. Han Qing also went through this kind of treatment, and they were pushed into the bugs' nursery.

A few gleams of light came from nowhere, and they could vaguely see the whole picture of the nursery through this light. Some human corpses were piled up in several layers on the dry branches in a crooked manner. There were gaps between the layers, and there were larvae in the gaps.

Maybe it was because it was too disgusting, Han Qing didn't take a closer look, but Lin Yining looked at it a few more times like an occupational disease.

The two stood by the side of the stone chamber without much entanglement. Lin Yining directly opened the bottle and threw it into the nursery.

A group of soldiers and insect police felt that they had found something, and hurriedly surrounded them. Lin Yining pulled Han Qing, climbed up a depression high on the stone wall, and jumped into another narrow gap from here.

"Wen Yulin's insect swarm can arrive in about ten minutes, a stump, the smell is too strong." Han Qing quietly said to Lin Yining: "Now wait for a while, we can take advantage of the chaos when they fight .If I hadn’t been noticed by Wen Yulin, we could have taken another much safer route, that is, to take a longer detour; but it’s also possible now, taking the nursery’s short route...just to take advantage of her... "

"Shut up." Lin Yining said, "Your voice is too loud."

Han Qing quickly shut up.

The two hid in the long darkness for an unknown few minutes, and there was a sound of insects crawling across the ground, which was extremely ear-piercing in the silent environment.

'Zhizhizhi—'But I didn't want to, a burst of alert chirping came, it turned out that it was a larva. They were spotted by this larva.

Two or three soldier insects rushed over.

Lin Yining's plant quickly strangled the poor larva. He asked Han Qing urgently, "Which side?"

"This way!" Han Qing said loudly.

The two rushed over quickly.

At the same time, Wen Yulin's swarm finally arrived, and the two sides fought hard. But they hadn't forgotten that two intruders were heading towards their mother worm, and they hurried after them.

Lin Yining suddenly discovered that there was a humanoid in Wen Yulin's swarm, and he had a vague spiritual connection with him. Lin Yining thought that this person was probably the one who was infected with the eggs by himself.

Lin Yining tried to control him.

The dolls were actually controlled by him, and they tried their best to stop the soldiers and insects attacking them, and the two were able to escape.

Two groups of bugs were fighting behind them, the smell became more pungent, and the sound became louder. Han Qing excitedly said: "Quick, that's over there!"

He ran in front, while Lin Yining sniped at the soldiers and insects following him. It may be because of the proximity of the mother worm, the nearby soldier worms increased again. Many of them heard the calls of their fellow clansmen and ran to rescue them. Lin Yining pulled Han Qing and fled into a gap in the stone wall again in the chaos.

"Why don't you go?" Han Qing said, "If we kill a few more bugs, we can find the mother bug."

"Don't worry, you have to answer a few questions for me first." Lin Yining said, "Otherwise, I won't even know how I died."

"You..." Han Qing was a little anxious, but tried his best to suppress his anger and said, "You ask."

"First, don't forget that the mission of this dungeon is to find out the reason for the mutation. Mutations include not only animals, but also plants. Can insects parasitize plants? It's ridiculous. Second, there are too many defenses around the mother insect. Yan Mi, you also saw that Wen Yulin didn't even know the location of the female worm, how did you know?"

Han Qing froze for a moment in the dark.

"I thank you for being willing to listen to my explanation. In fact, part of the willingness to hide it is because this part of the memory is too dark, and I don't want to mention it. If you insist on knowing, it's okay to tell you," he said: "Tell the injured mother I am the one who placed the worms in this place."
