"We have no choice but to escape. This secret room has not left us any room to fight from the very beginning. As long as we face those monsters head-on, we have no possibility of survival." Xing Yan briefly judged the current situation , and make a preliminary appraisal of their team's situation.

"But the map is in Wang Yue's hands. The place is so big that I can't even tell the difference between east, west, and north." John said dejectedly. It was a huge blow to him that he couldn't use magic ability. John always liked to rely on magic to To identify the direction, he believes that the wonderful elves in nature will show him the way.

"Just go down. I've looked at the map twice. Although the space is large, the layout is similar. We need to find the elevator to the next floor first."

Xing Yan said calmly, and he couldn't show his panic. He is the captain, the leader of a team. If even the leader panics, then the team is not far from perishing.

"Then we don't care about Wang Yue?" John said nervously.

Xing Yan glanced at John, "Don't worry, if that kid wants to escape, he is definitely the fastest among us. With his detection ability, it is better to let him come to us than to let us find him. .”

"That's right." John nodded in agreement, then suddenly thought of something, and asked the captain, "Then what about the kid... Uh, I mean our new team member."

Xing Yan didn't answer for a while, and he was silent for a while. Frowning, he thought about it: "Don't worry, that kid is very strong, and he should be the one among us who is most likely to survive."

Jiang Li suddenly interjected: "Captain, I want to know something, while there is still time..."

"What's up?"

"That kid, Captain, do you really trust him?" Jiang Li's voice was very low under the mask, "According to the previous regulations, each of our new team members must be monitored and inspected for a certain period of time before they can be fully handed over. Trust me, it was the same when I joined the ghost team, but this time the captain broke the rules, which puzzles me."

Hearing Jiang Li's words, Xing Yan seemed to have thought of something, his face looked a little stern under the cold blue light, and then he answered Jiang Li: "Actually, I am also very puzzled."

Jiang Li became puzzled: "What?"

Xing Yan seemed to shake his head helplessly, and he said to Jiang Li and John: "Have you ever felt this way? One day you met a stranger, such a person who has never appeared in your memory, But you have developed an extraordinary affection for him, wanting to protect and even rely on him... "

Before Xing Yan finished speaking, Jiang Li interjected, "Could it be...captain...?"

"I know it's inexplicable, and I think so too." Xing Yan's face became darker, and he continued, "I even wonder if that kid is using some means to control me, but this suspicion... as long as he Standing in front of me melts away and I feel like my emotions are out of control."

"Isn't that dangerous?!" John shouted immediately, "I knew that kid was not a good guy! They are all little devils in angel shells! He even used bugs to scare me!"

Jiang Li glanced at John speechlessly, "Come on, it's just that you are afraid of bugs."

"Listen, gentlemen." Xing Yan said calmly, "You don't need to put any trust in that kid, I feel that he won't stay in this team for too long, and I don't feel any hostility from him either. So to a certain extent, we can use him."

On the other side, Luo Jian and Wang Yue were still following the aliens on their way to the control room. They were all ordered by the aliens to wear what looked like a gas mask, because the alien Norn told them—

"Those monsters will spread plagues and unknown viruses. Among them is a green bug about the size of a palm. Like a parasite, it will crawl on you and release toxins to immobilize you. When necessary, They also scratch your skin and hatch the larvae in your body, and then you become a nest and are eaten alive from the inside out."

Norn explained, and added by the way: "Many of my companions died like this."

"It's really scary. Are there other types of bugs?" Wang Yueguang felt horrified when he heard Norn's narration.

"There are many, different types, but I don't know the details." Norn said: "With our technological level and combat level at that time, this spaceship was still occupied by those bugs in less than 24 hours. , although there are many elements of being caught off guard, we really don't have effective means to deal with those bugs now."

"Are there no other survivors besides you?" Luo Jian asked.

"I don't know. At a critical moment, I escaped to the cryogenic cabin of the dormant room and sealed myself in ice. It may be because of the freezing that I lost the signs of life, so those bugs ignored me."

"Wait, you mean, those monsters will look for us by our life signs?"

Norn smiled slightly and said: "Of course, there seem to be scouts among the bugs. They are well organized like an army. I believe that one of them must be able to control the entire bug swarm, similar to Queen's Peak." exist."

"And the queen will lay a large number of eggs." Luo Jian rubbed her chin and thought, "Then these insects will go to find a large space as an incubation room for the larvae, and find some worker bees to take care of them."

"It makes sense to say that." Nuo En seemed to be reminded by Luo Jian's words, and he tilted his head to remember, "Big space... The biggest space on our spaceship is the lowest parking cabin."

"Because it is a place to dock all kinds of small ships and escape ships, so when it is not open, the parking cabin is completely sealed, and it is protected by doors and walls made of thick materials. It is also where the space station was attacked. the safest place."

Wang Yue also understood something when he heard this, and said in pain: "My God! This is really the most unfortunate news I have ever heard. It means that if we want to find an escape ship and escape from this space station, we have to go to the worm. Drill in the nest, right?!"

Norn nodded and said, "Yes, that's what it means."

Luo Jian said: "I can already imagine the appearance of densely packed insect eggs in the parking cabin... What if the escape boat is also filled with insect eggs?"

"Don't worry, some small special escape boats need permission to open. The outer wall is a seamless automatic defense energy cover. Without instructions, the door of the escape boat cannot be opened in any way, so don't worry about those bugs stuffing their eggs into the escape boat. In the boat."

"Do you have permission to escape the ship?" Luo Jian asked a key question.

Norn looked back at Luo Jian, and replied: "Our authority is peeled off layer by layer. As long as the upper-level person dies, the spaceship system will automatically hand over the authority to the subordinates, so... I was originally just on this ship. One of the guards, and now, I already have the highest authority."

"It means that all the people above you are dead." Wang Yue listened to the alien's words bitterly, and had to come to such a miserable conclusion.

Norn didn't answer. He was walking in the front, but now he has stopped silently. At the same time, both Luo Jian and Wang Yue could clearly hear the dense rustling sound, which was right in front of them. There were noises in the corridor ahead, and very close together.

"It's very difficult to defeat these bugs in a head-on confrontation. There are a lot of them, and they are not afraid of death. As long as they set their sights on the target, they will bite you until you are gnawed into a skeleton by them!" Norn speeded up his speech. , and resisted his own weapon, which was the bazooka on his shoulders.

"Can we really beat those bugs?" Wang Yue was so timid that he started to tremble. He took out his pitiful crossbow, and he really lacked confidence. He is not good at dealing with large-scale targets. , especially the swarms of insects coming over, not to mention that he has a slight panic phobia and his legs will be weak when facing densely packed things, and with so many targets, it is the limit to kill two of them with one arrow.

At this moment, Norn took up his posture. He pointed his muzzle at the entrance of the corridor that was rustling in front of him, and raised his volume and said to Luo Jian and Wang Yue: "We don't need to confront them head-on, we just need to Just get over them! Follow my orders!"

Luo Jian bowed his body quite cooperatively, and made a movement to start running at any time, and Wang Yue, who was beside him, also mustered up the courage to follow behind Luo Jian. Then, almost at the same time, at the entrance of the corridor, those overwhelming swarms of insects appeared! Accompanied by the sound of them rustling on the ground, walls and even the ceiling, their figures appeared in the sight of Norn, Luo Jian and Wang Yue!

It was a swarm of worms each the size of a fist, with sickle-like forelimbs and sharp mouthparts, and the shells were all pitch black! They appeared from the entrance of the corridor in front of them like a tide, and immediately attacked Nuo En and others overwhelmingly.

Norn fired the 'Bazooka' directly on his shoulder, and the deafening sound of the shells roared in the entire open space! It was so deafening that the eardrums of Luo Jian and Wang Yue began to tremble!

Nuoen's shells seem to be not ordinary shells, they are something with high temperature, whereever they pass - every bug is turned into coke under the high temperature, and the high temperature shell blasts in from the entrance of the corridor, vibrating A huge hole was blasted out, and the surrounding walls turned into black charcoal!

"Run! Run forward!" Nuo En took the lead and ran with a weapon, followed by Luo Jian and Wang Yue. Wang Yue was still worried at first, but when he saw such powerful high-tech weapons of the aliens, he suddenly let go of a lot of stones hanging in his heart, but soon, he began to worry again.

Although many insects were killed by Nuoen's bombardment, the horror of the insects was quickly revealed. A large wave of insects came out from nowhere, still so many and so dense, overwhelming from all directions, crowded Airtight, almost no gaps in the eyes! Bugs, bugs!

And Noen led two humans to blast a path in this group of bugs with cannonballs. He shouted while shelling: "The control room is in front! Just hold on-"

But I couldn't hold on at all. Even though the control room was close at hand, just walk through this long corridor and turn a corner to reach the place, but in just a few seconds, it seemed that the time was infinitely stretched. At the end of the run, he didn't dare to look back, because he felt that those insects were almost at his feet, they were crawling too fast, the sound of those arthropods crawling was unbelievably close to him, he knew that he was very fast Will be overwhelmed by the swarm!

In just a few seconds, Wang Yue knew that he would be eaten up by these worms, maybe even the bones would not be left behind!

Death is right behind him!

what to do! what to do! ? Wang Yue's mind was full of this at that moment, and he switched several plans in his brain in a short moment, the plan to get rid of this predicament. He is very good at lurking and reconnaissance, using his petite body to drill into any possible passage, and has various abilities to set traps. He also has a crossbow, which is actually half a sniper...

But all his abilities and advantages take time to deploy, and at this moment of life and death, Wang Yue couldn't think of any way to save himself. If his companions were still around, he wouldn't be so embarrassed —

At this moment, Luo Jian, who was running ahead and closely behind Nuo En, stopped suddenly, and turned to look at Wang Yue.

"Fall down!" Luo Jian roared loudly.

Wang Yue followed Luo Jian's order and instinctively flew to the ground. At the same time, Luo Jian raised the flamethrower in his hand, and shot a burst of flames at the swarm of insects rushing towards him.

The flamethrower in Luo Jian's hand was also a weapon copied from a player in the Shura field.

There is also a player in the blood-red Shura field who uses bug control as a weapon, but the player's bugs are not as big as the ones I met now. His bugs are all small things the size of fingernails, and they don't spread any plagues or viruses. There are so many, the reproduction speed is ridiculously fast, almost endless, and they can also parasitize the human body, which can gnaw people into a skeleton in a few seconds—

Yes, Luo Jian has experienced this kind of death, the death method of being gnawed alive by a group of insects.

That bug controller is also one of Luo Jian's most hated enemies in the Shura field. In fact, everyone in the Shura field hates this guy. In the Shura field, death is common, and almost no one will complain. But it's fucking disgusting to have to torture someone while killing someone.

However, the insect swarm of the insect controller is too scary. As long as you are a little careless, one or two of these insects crawl on your body, and half of them will die.

In order to deal with the insect controller, Luo Jian specially searched for such a weapon, a weapon that could suppress the insects. After looking around, he finally found that the flamethrower in the hands of a small character was the best weapon.

The owner of this flamethrower is a typical arsonist, and his flame has a special effect—infection.

As long as it is touched by his flame, the flame will continue in all directions, turning all the surrounding terrain into a sea of flames, which is the classic reproduction of what people say that a single spark can start a prairie fire.

It's just that there are a lot of players who use fire in the Shura field, and the fire-type nemesis... Water-type players are no problem, and the strength of this arsonist is not particularly high, so he became unknown instead.

But this gun showed a completely different effect in Luo Jian's hands.

The flames immediately swept across the large area of insects behind Wang Yue. The high-temperature flame seemed to be what these insects were most afraid of. Their shells seemed to be tougher than ordinary small insects, but they were still difficult to resist the flamethrower in Luo Jian's hand. Power, one by one curled up on the ground and began to howl fiercely.

Luo Jian immediately pulled Wang Yue up to keep up with the aliens in front.

But when Luo Jian looked back, he was shocked to find that although some of the insects were burned to death by the flames, more insects crawled out densely and densely, and they covered those burned by Luo Jian with the flamethrower. The trembling bugs also covered the burning flames.

"It's not powerful enough." Seeing this scene, Luo Jian muttered, Wang Yue found that there was a hint of excitement on the face of the child in front of him, yes, it was that kind of excited expression, the child said to himself , "But the effect is there, I just need to use a little more force."
