Chapter 611: Welcoming the Golden Beetle (Part 2)
A golden beetle is worth 10 points. In other words, as long as Meng Xiang kills all the golden beetles, he will get at least 10,000 points as a reward. If he completes the side story, he can immediately resurrect Mu Feier after returning.
The long-cherished dream was about to come true. Mu Feier's smiling face had even appeared in Meng Xiang's mind.
The last time I experienced "Starship Troopers", the golden beetle was worth 5,000 points, but now it is worth 10 points. This is obviously a correction made after evaluating Meng Xiang's strength. Otherwise, Meng Xiang could have earned points in this plot world.
Gu Panpan was suspended in the air dozens of meters high, watching Meng Xiang killing. She didn't understand why Meng Xiang became more courageous and excited as he killed more. However, such powerful golden beetles were besieging Meng Xiang, but Meng Xiang was at ease. With a wave of Tianjing, the golden beetle was immediately split into two.
Meng Xiang is simply playing the game of killing golden beetles.
Gu Panpan was eager to try, but her instinct to unlock her potential prevented her from doing so. The sense of crisis that shook her soul made Gu Panpan dare not cause any more trouble even if she was willful.
However, Meng Xiang knew his own pain. Swinging the Heavenly Crystal with all his strength, using all his strength in every strike, made him very tired. After killing half of them, he was already out of breath.
The strong sense of crisis and the ordeal between life and death were the best opportunities for breakthroughs. How could Meng Xiang let it go? Points and breakthroughs became Meng Xiang's motivation. His level of insight became higher and higher, and the atomic boundaries that made up the energy particles became clearer and clearer. Several times it seemed that the atomic particles could be split, but, just a little bit short, he could not break through.
The foul smell of the golden beetles polluted the entire tunnel, and also made the other golden beetles even more crazy. The "buzzing" sound filled the entire tunnel, causing Meng Xiang's eardrums to ache slightly.
Meng Xiang was very tired, but he became more and more courageous as the battle went on.
"Swish" Meng Xiang killed a golden beetle and stared at the last golden beetle.
After dozens of minutes of fierce fighting, Meng Xiang's clothes were torn to pieces, but his spiritual defense, highly precise force-dissipating ability, and the powerful physique after being demonized, kept his body intact.
The golden beetle that had caused Meng Xiang so much trouble in the past was now just a small insect covered with a tough shell to him.
"Leave the last one to me." Gu Panpan saw this opportunity and flipped her right hand. The powerful Qigong condensed into a huge hand that suddenly fell from the sky and grabbed the last golden armored hand. A sharp sword cut through the space and stabbed at the small mouth of the golden beetle.
Gu Panpan knew that her strength was not enough to break the golden beetle's shell, so she imitated Meng Xiang and tried to find a breakthrough from its mouth.
With a "clang", the long sword was shattered, and the golden beetle's golden wings spread out, and the big hand that wrapped its body was blown up with a "pop". The golden beetle spread its wings and flew high, crashing into Gu Panpan above.
Gu Panpan was in mid-air, with no way to avoid it. She was not yet proficient in controlling the Advanced Green Magic Board, and the speed of the Advanced Green Magic Board was far slower than that of the Golden Beetle. Gu Panpan would definitely be knocked away by this attack.
"Swish" a white light flashed, Meng Xiang jumped dozens of meters up, came from behind, and cut the last golden beetle into two pieces with one sword.
"Wow, Brother Xiang, you're too strong." Gu Panpan quickly controlled the Green Magic Board to land on the ground. Meng Xiang smiled lightly, put away the Sky Crystal, sat on the ground covered with corpses, gasped for breath, and said, "It's easy to say. My strength is almost exhausted. It really consumes a lot of spiritual energy to attack with all my strength."
Meng Xiang took out some military ration pills, ate a few of them, then took out some roasted meat and started eating them.
Gu Panpan pushed the body parts away from the ground, picked up the shell of a golden beetle, poured out the broken flesh inside, and then sat next to Meng Xiang and played with it, not feeling disgusted at all.
After Meng Xiang finished eating and drinking, he took a deep breath and said excitedly: "Pan Pan, I have good news for you. I just killed a total of 1,003 golden armors and earned more than 10,000 points."
"Wow, so many points?" Gu Panpan was surprised and delighted. She took Meng Xiang's hand and said, "Good brother, give me some points. I want to exchange them for advanced Qigong when I go back."
"Haha, these points are used to resurrect Fei'er. If you want to strengthen yourself, you should work hard to earn points. One day, you will get what you wish for." Meng Xiang caressing Gu Panpan's head lovingly.
"Sister Fei'er? She is a heroine among women. Brother Xiang, can you tell me in detail about Sister Fei'er's deeds?" Gu Panpan's eyes were full of tears, making it impossible to refuse.
Meng Xiang's strength was greatly damaged, and it would be disastrous if he encountered another Zerg attack, so he sat on the ground to rest and told Gu Panpan everything about Mu Feier, which made Gu Panpan fascinated.
"So that's how it is. Although she doesn't have much potential, through hard work, she has not only mastered superb sniping techniques, but also greatly improved her mental skills. She has saved her companions in critical moments many times," Xin Panpan murmured to herself. Even Meng Xiang couldn't guess what she was thinking.
"Well, okay. I've decided on the two female members of the Nameless Team. After Sister Fei'er is resurrected, this will be her and my name." Gu Panpan's words made Meng Xiang laugh.
The stench gradually dissipated, and a fresh breeze blew in my face, refreshing me. However, encountering this cool breeze a thousand meters underground made me feel a surge of yin wind.
The wind came from the direction where the golden beetle attacked. Meng Xiang's intuition told him that there was definitely something ahead that scared them.
"Let's keep going. We are far away from the Xingxue Iron Mine now, and the footprints on the ground have disappeared. If there is nothing to find ahead, we must turn around quickly." Three days have already wasted more than half, and Meng Xiang really has no extra time. If he fails to complete the side story, Gu Panpan may be killed by the main god because his points become negative.
The two continued to walk forward, and after walking for more than ten minutes, a small cave appeared on the wall of the tunnel in front of them. Meng Xiang and Gu Panpan walked over quickly, only to feel the breeze coming from the cave, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
Meng Xiang stepped into the cave and exclaimed, "Eh!" He said, "Strange, there is a gentle energy fluctuation coming from this cave, which is completely different from the tunnel outside."
Gu Panpan followed Meng Xiang in, took a deep breath, and said, "Yes, fresh air. Strange, could it be that the end of this cave is the ground of this planet? However, this planet covered with yellow sand does not necessarily have such fresh air. Also, the smell of the wilderness is full of the breath of nature. Brother Xiang, this is..."
"I don't know either, but there will be an answer soon. There is no sense of crisis in there, so it should be safe. But just in case, you'd better not go in." Xiang held Gu Panpan's hand and continued to walk deeper into the dongxue.
The dongxue gradually turned into a corridor. Strange murals appeared on both sides of the corridor. More and more artifacts appeared, which raised Meng Xiang and Gu Panpan's curiosity to the limit.
It is certain that humans once lived here.
After walking for several kilometers, a light appeared in front of us, and the breath of nature was pouring in from there.
Meng Xiang and Gu Panpan quickened their pace and walked outside the light spot.
"Huh? This... is impossible."
The bright sun, the blue sky, the clear mountains and flowing water, the shady green trees, the fragrance of flowers, the chirping of birds, and the chirping of insects.
This is not Silver Sand Planet, this is simply a wilderness on Earth.
Such a scene left Meng Xiang and Gu Panpan stunned.
Driven by curiosity, Meng Xiang and Gu Panpan walked in without hesitation. However, rather than curiosity, it was more like a kind of intimate power inside that attracted them and made them unable to control their bodies. This power was like a wanderer who had not returned home for a long time, and finally returned to the doorstep one day, and his mother waved to greet him at home, which made the wanderer irresistible.
The two of them stepped into this space, their feet stepped on the crisp green grass. Suddenly, their faces changed at the same time, and they hurriedly retreated, then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Xiang, what happened just now? How come in an instant, my... my strength seemed to disappear without a trace?" Gu Panpan asked in panic.
"It's not disappearance, it's deprivation." Meng Xiang once entered the side story of "The Mummy" in the third level of the dream. In that pyramid, he was deprived of his power by the main god. However, at that time, he only deprived the power exchanged from the main god. This time, it was more thorough. All the power was deprived, making Meng Xiang and Gu Panpan turn back into ordinary people in an instant.
