"You guys want to go to that giant ship, right? Take me with you!"
Li Wenxi grabbed Xu Xin's arm and said.
"I will definitely be able to display my abilities in that huge ship!"
this…
Xu Xin hesitated: "Let's not do that. It's too dangerous to go to that kind of place. Yingying and I are just going to take a look, and this place is also..."
"Take her there. She's been sitting here in a daze." Wen Guixin crossed her arms over her chest and raised her eyebrows slightly. "We just need to be careful here."
"Brother, bring sister-in-law with you." Xu Ying said, "With sister-in-law here, we can find out more quickly whether there is what we want."
Indeed, if they brought Li Wenxi with them, they wouldn't have to run around like headless flies over there.
After all, what they are looking for are the weapons of the alien invaders.
Weapons are almost certainly related to metal.
"Okay, let's go together." Xu Xin nodded slightly.
"Uh-huh!"
"Ah? Then I will..."
Seeing this, Lou Feier immediately wanted to follow along and came over.
"Stop. You stay here!"
Xu Xin held her forehead and pushed her away.
"Three people is the limit. If there are more, it will be too easy to be discovered."
Moreover, there are too many people. If they encounter danger, it will also affect the speed at which Xu Ying leads people to teleport away.
"I can definitely help..." Lou Feier said somewhat dissatisfiedly, "I also want to go to their giant ship to take a look..."
"Forget it." Zeng Tao patted Lou Feier on the shoulder. "Your ability is speed. No matter how fast you are, what's the use? If you move too fast, the Cloak of the Hider will be ineffective and your ability will be wasted."
Zeng Tao blinked and looked at Xu Xin: "What do you think of me? My ability will definitely come in handy!"
Lou Feier was immediately furious: "Okay, I..."
Others were a little helpless.
"Alright you two."
Xu Xin interrupted the two people's nonsense and warned: "Stop it, don't think you are safe now. The leader may come back at any time."
"You must be careful here and don't split up again."
Everyone nodded.
"Brother Xin, don't worry, the cutting has basically been completed here." Zhao Xiaochuan raised the cutter in his hand and said, "Although I also want to go over with you guys, it will be safer for you to be here, but I am still needed here, so I won't go."
"This is more important." Xu Ying said, "So, it's just the three of us. Well, don't waste time, let's go now!"
…
On the other side of the earth, in the World Tree.
"I say, Brother Chaoyang, are you sure... we will encounter enemies again?"
Ma Hongwei looked at the outside world which had been calm for a long time and couldn't help asking.
"Three of the alien invaders' giant ships were destroyed and one returned. Will they come back again?"
Ji Chaoyang has also been observing the situation outside: "My prophecy tells me that things are not over yet."
"His predictions have never been wrong." Qi Xuefei glanced at Ma Hongwei and said.
"Why do you seem so anxious?" Qin Yunlong asked puzzledly.
"Of course I'm anxious!"
Ma Hongwei pointed at the location where the three giant ships were destroyed, and was somewhat excited.
"There are wreckages of a giant alien warship over there! As long as we go over there, we can recycle them! You let me wait like this without doing anything, and you don't go over to recycle them, how can I not be anxious!"
He was simply going crazy thinking about the three huge ships that had been destroyed.
Nearly half an hour had passed since the warship returned.
For the people in the World Tree, two days have already passed.
Ma Hongwei has been really restless these past two days!
"If we don't go there soon, the wreckage of those huge ships will be recycled..."
He paced back and forth like an ant on hot pot.
"Calm down and don't dwell on the past."
Ji Chaoyang rubbed his tired head helplessly.
Shi Wanyun chuckled and said, "If you go there, including the time for recovery, the round trip will take at least an hour. If anything happens during this hour, you will be caught outside."
"Moreover, the nuclear radiation over there is too strong now. I think even with my medicine, you may not be able to bear it." Qi Xuefei said.
"ah… "
Ma Hongwei sat down somewhat dejectedly, then grabbed his hair fiercely.
"It would be nice if Brother Xin and his sister were here too..." he muttered.
If Xu Xin is here, he can place the teleportation coordinates.
In this way, they only need to go there to retrieve it, set a new teleportation coordinate when they return, and teleport back directly.
Even if there is any danger, Xu Xin can install it directly on the spot
"Then I hope they can come soon..." he muttered softly.
"Why is that?" Shi Wanyun asked curiously.
"Think about it, if they still don't make any movement after half an hour, doesn't that mean..."
Ma Hongwei pointed in the direction of the wreckage.
"Doesn't that mean that if I set out to retrieve them immediately after they return, I can succeed?"
He looked resentful: "Will I regret this to death? Come on... Come quickly..."
"You idiot..."
Everyone was speechless.
But no one said anything about him.
After all, all the weapons of this World Tree were developed or improved by him and Zeng Tao.
He deserves the lion's share of the credit.
It is natural that he cares a lot about the giant ship now.
"I say, if you recycle the wreckage, can you replicate the alien invaders' giant ship?"
Qin Yunlong rubbed his hands and asked.
"Huh...? Copying a giant warship? How is that possible..."
Ma Hongwei immediately waved his hand: "The interior of the giant ship has probably been almost destroyed by our nuclear weapons, and I think the useful parts I can recover are limited."
"Then why are you so excited?" Qin Yunlong shrugged, expressing his incomprehension, "It's impossible to do it anyway."
"That's a giant ship!" Ma Hongwei slapped the control console, "A giant ship! It's a tool for alien invaders to travel the universe! Even if the recyclable parts are limited, it will definitely make our technology advance a big step forward!"
"Then wait until this war is over."
Ji Chaoyang said as he looked at the direction where the giant ship fell.
"Wait until this war is over, then go and recover the wreckage of their giant ships."
"... When this war is over, they will probably have already collected the wreckage." Ma Hongwei said with some heartache, "How can it be my turn?"
"I mean, this war is... over."
Ji Chaoyang glanced at Ma Hongwei.
"Do you think Xu Xin and the others will succeed?"
Ma Hongwei suddenly fell silent.
Then he smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, when I saw that huge ship, I felt... that there was little hope. Now I think that it would be great if Brother Xin and the others could succeed halfway and come back alive."
"I think they are likely to succeed." Shi Wanyun said softly, "We just need to do what we should do."
"Besides, if Brother Xin and the others succeed, the wreckage of your three giant ships can also be recovered, and our human technology can be taken to a higher level." Qin Yunhu patted Ma Hongwei on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Isn't that better?"
"That's even better. How can I not hope that Brother Xin and the others will succeed?" Ma Hongwei sighed, "I'm just very worried about them. We can basically guarantee our own safety now, and we have a way out, but Brother Xin and the others are in danger."
"Do what we should do..." Ji Chaoyang stopped talking halfway.
"The opponent's attack is coming."
Everyone looked outside.
The jungle had long been bombed into a pitted wasteland, so they could see far away.
Hundreds of kilometers away on the skyline, a row of dark objects appeared.
When I zoomed in to look, I saw countless chariots driving on the ground over there!
These tanks are huge, each one seems to be the size of a medium-sized truck!
And at a glance...
At least tens of thousands!
"Oh my goodness! Are we going to attack from land this time?"
Ma Hongwei stood up.
This row of strange chariots that he had never seen before rekindled his fighting spirit.
"These chariots..."
Shi Wanyun frowned slightly: "These chariots seem to have emerged from... the wreckage of those giant ships."
The location of the wreckage had long been bombed into a very deep pit, so they couldn't see the wreckage now.
But these chariots do seem to be...
Climb out of those nuclear bomb craters!
"If that's the case..."
Ji Chaoyang's expression was a little ugly.
"Then our strongest weapon, nuclear missiles, may be ineffective against them."
They launched a very crazy bombing on those three giant ships!
If this can't destroy the chariots installed in the giant ship...
It cannot be destroyed now.
"Maybe I saw it wrong?"
Shi Wanyun reached out and slid the control screen.
"No, you read that correctly."
Qi Xuefei was also observing carefully.
"I looked carefully. These chariots did not come out of that purple-black light column. Moreover, after the destruction of three giant ships, the alien invaders probably don't dare to use this teleportation array to teleport anymore."
The purple-black beam of light still emits a deep glow a hundred kilometers away.
"In other words, did these tanks really survive our crazy bombing?"
Qin Yunlong said in surprise.
"It seems that's the case." Ji Chaoyang narrowed his eyes.
At this time, the dozen or so people who were on duty and observing below also discovered the abnormality.
"Hey, hey, hey, look at the direction of the teleportation formation!"
"Is there something coming over there?"
"Boss, something is coming!"
"Is... is it a tank?! No... it's not a tank, it's much bigger than a tank... is it a war vehicle of alien invaders?!"
"Where did this come from? A teleportation formation?"
"That should be it?"
"The battle is about to begin again!"
At this time, Qi Xuefei once again gathered everyone who were resting and recuperating.
Soon, in less than three minutes, the underground space was filled with people again.
"Is the war going to start again?"
"Hit it!"
"Wow, it's a chariot this time?"
"They have already used up their huge warships, so why should they be afraid of chariots that can walk on the ground?"
"We must win! Last time we sent that giant ship back, it affected Xinshen. We must make up for it this time!"
"Make amends!"
"We must win!"
"Kick the alien invaders out of Earth!"
This group of fanatical believers have begun shouting slogans.
At this time, Ji Chaoyang gave the order.
"Attack the chariot!"
Immediately, everyone got into the state at the first moment.
Outside the World Tree, countless nuclear missiles were fired towards that direction again.
The blinding light and mushroom-like clouds reappeared.
"Hahahaha, how dare a few cars attack us?"
"Kill them!"
"Blast them to pieces!"
"It's so relaxing. I feel like it's not as good as the previous drones."
"Aren't these tanks a little few in number?"
"Oh, the alien invaders' huge ships are already dead, what else can they send?"
"Too."
"We have won!"
Everyone was discussing in a very relaxed manner.
But Ji Chaoyang and others looked slightly gloomy.
They knew it wouldn't be that simple.
Sure enough, when everything settled, everyone was horrified to find that the tanks had actually driven out from the bombed-out ground!
They emerged from the smoke and continued to move towards their World Tree.
"Fuck!"
"ah?!"
"What's going on?!"
"Why... these tanks seem to be completely undamaged?!"
Is that really the case
After confirming their guess, Ji Chaoyang and the others all looked unhappy.
Their most powerful weapon was actually completely ineffective against this chariot!
“Well… it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s useless, right?”
Qin Yunlong swallowed his saliva, looked at the others and said, "If we increase the intensity of the bombing, we should be able to destroy them, right? It can't be that there is really no damage at all, right?"
"It's possible." Shi Wanyun said, "Don't forget how hard we attacked the wreckage before. Do they look damaged now?"
"This..." Qin Yunlong was speechless.
"You can try it. We still have plenty of ammunition." Ji Chaoyang said.
Then he ordered everyone to fire three more waves at the tank group.
But none of them could stop the advance of the tank group.
These chariots didn't care at all and drove at a constant speed towards the World Tree, as if the horrific nuclear bombing just now had no effect on them at all.
No, not as if.
There is no impact at all!
"this… "
Both Ji Chaoyang and his companions, as well as those who were controlling the weapons below, were speechless.
They really didn't expect that this tank, which seemed to be not as advanced as the previous drone, actually had such amazing defensive power!
"Blast... can't be blown to pieces?"
"It's not just that it can't be blown up, it's completely... harmless!"
"This... What should I do?"
"This is a nuclear missile! What the hell is that on the other side?"
"It's over, it's over. Aren't we going to be..."
"Don't be afraid of shit. You won't die. Don't forget that we have a way out. The worst that can happen is we can just run away!"
"Ah, that's true!"
"So, our current mission should be to hold back these tanks! We can't let them return!"
"Yes, we must not let them affect the plans of Xin Shen and Ying Shen again!"
"Fight for our God!"
"Fight for the gods!"
"Huh? How does this chariot return? Is it going to fly back like a giant ship?"
"Damn, they are driving on the ground, of course they should drive back!"
"But the speed of this chariot..."
Yes, the speed of the chariot is very slow.
It can be said that it is very slow.
Especially for those who are inside the World Tree and are used to seeing the speed of giant ships.
Too slow.
That is...
Fifty kilometers per hour.
It's about the same as a car driving in the city.
That's really slow.
"This should be the disadvantage of this tank."
Ji Chaoyang touched his chin and thought: "The reason why the alien invaders did not use these chariots that we were helpless against earlier, but used those drones to attack, is that they wanted to end the battle quickly."
Shi Wanyun took over the conversation and said, "The drones failed to capture us for several hours, and we even destroyed most of them. This made the other side furious, and they directly dispatched their giant ships."
"But the giant ships were destroyed." Qi Xuefei thought, "So, they deployed these... intact chariots from the destroyed giant ships."
"We don't have any means to deal with these tanks right now." Ma Hongwei sighed, "They are completely indestructible. Even our most powerful weapons can't hurt them at all. What can we do?"
"Perhaps we can find a way to delay them?" Qin Yunlong suggested, "Let them come later!"
Not destroying them, but slowing them down
They are actually slow enough now.
It will take at least two hours to arrive.
However, there are still more than three hours until the time predicted by Ji Chaoyang.
"After conquering the World Tree, these chariots will definitely return." Ji Chaoyang said in a deep voice, "Perhaps by teleportation, or other methods. In short, we must not let these chariots return!"
He said this not only to the people around him, but also to the people below.
"That's right! We must not let them return!"
"Even if we can't destroy it, we must hold it back!"
"It's okay to delay as long as possible! Even if the World Tree is destroyed, it can still grow again..."
"So... what should we do now? Keep bombing them?"
"Why not bomb the path they must take and create a very difficult terrain for them to pass through, so that their speed will be even slower!"
"Use the blast to blow them back!"
"What the hell, there's no way you can blow it back! Didn't you see what happened just now? I don't know how heavy this thing is!"
"Then...then we..."
The explorers also began to think of solutions in their minds.
It is not impossible to artificially create deep pits using nuclear missiles.
This will slow down their progress slightly.
And when they get close, the World Tree can activate the laser weapon! Maybe it will have a certain effect.
And near the World Tree, there were groups of giant beasts that they had deployed long ago, as well as several groups of petrified beasts.
These behemoths in the Crystal City have super recovery abilities and unparalleled strength, and can withstand one or two!
Moreover, there is another unstable factor.
"Look!" Qi Xuefei exclaimed, "This giant insect surrounding our Crystal City seems to have woken up!"
Everyone looked over.
I saw that the huge body of this giant insect actually began to move!
Its huge body began to move.
But it didn't move, it just squirmed in place.
As its body squirmed, everyone saw a shocking scene.
Big bugs began to crawl out from under its body!
Each one has a different shape and is covered with mucus.
There are worms, beetles, millipedes, and even flying insects!
The most important thing is that each of these insects is at least five meters long and three meters tall!
These bugs are also giant bugs!
"Fuck!"
"This bug gave birth to little bugs!"
"Little bug? This little bug can swallow you in one bite!"
"What's going on? How come this big caterpillar gave birth to so many different kinds of bugs? How come it can give birth to everything?"
“This is unscientific!”
“… kind of gross.”
"This bug, is it here to help us?"
"That's not gross!"
“This, this, this…!”
Everyone was excited again by the scene before them.
The explorers were also very surprised.
"This is what Yingying said, the Zerg Queen that can give birth to a large Zerg army..." Qi Xuefei murmured to herself.
“… Is the Insect Queen finally going to show her power?”
