Chapter 77: Good Luck, Destruction, and Auspiciousness
The second rampage was obviously more serious. The white compound eyes of the insects could no longer see the sharp black spot in the middle. The blood-red veins appeared and cracked, and the black-red blood flowing rapidly inside could be clearly seen, which was blocked by a layer of white translucent eye membrane...
"It's just a larva..." Someone suddenly murmured in the rescue mecha team's temporary team channel.
Major Zheng looked at the insect's wildly spinning compound eyes and squinted his eyes and said, "Yeah, it's just a larva..." But he still had to be cautious and on guard, and could only send out combat mechas to defeat it.
"By the way, this bug couldn't be a rot nematode, right? How disgusting!"
"Hahaha, you just figured it out?"
"Damn, how did this bug get here?!... Ugh."
A team member accidentally made a remark, and only realized his mistake after he finished speaking, and the entire team channel fell silent.
Major Zheng pretended not to hear them and was the first to speak up and remind them, "Everyone, be careful to dodge and attract their attention. The mecha team will be here soon!"
"Yes! Major!" The team members all breathed a sigh of relief. It would be better not to talk about such a life-threatening matter. They had no control over the decisions and games of the higher-ups.
I saw the strange blood-red lines on the skin of the five insects bulging out, and their skin no longer secreted mucus. Instead, strange black and red smoke came out, as if it was evaporated by the high skin temperature.
"The second stage is rampage..." Major Zheng looked at the five insects ready to attack with caution, and reminded them again: "The smoke is highly toxic, everyone be careful!"
"Yes!"
The dozen or so people who were suspended in mid-air and confronting the insects from a distance couldn't help but feel their hearts skip a beat.
Because these insects fixed their eyes on them. Their turbid and bloody gaze was as thick and sticky as substance, and their malice followed them like a shadow.
The enemy, it’s the enemy, take it back, take it back!
Several insects moved their legs slightly, and then one of them quickly crawled forward, dragging its huge fleshy belly. Another followed closely behind it and then piled on top of it.
This type of insect has poor jumping ability and cannot fly, but it is best at cooperative combat in groups of one. With the assistance of other insects, they can jump a certain distance, but the specific distance varies from insect to insect.
So when the dozen or so people saw this, they immediately dispersed and continued to confront the insects that were divided into two groups from a distance.
In one group of three bugs, the smallest one is at the top. Although it is small, has low energy value and seems to have little lethality, it is also relatively light and flexible.
It slightly adjusted its forelimbs, aimed at a mecha, and leaped up...
"Be careful!" The other companions couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw the worms' jumping distance clearly exceeded their expectations. Once the corrosive nematodes in such a rampaging state get close to them, the mecha will be corroded and lose its mobility, which will be dangerous!
The driver of the mecha that was targeted reacted quickly and dodged sideways, avoiding the jumping bug and getting closer to the remaining two bugs, while the second bug was already ready to attack.
Before the driver could react, his sight was occupied by the disgusting insect's abdomen, and there was a black and red color in front of him...
The insect's body was covered with irregularly arranged shells and rotten flesh, which could be keenly sensed through the mecha's shell. The driver's face turned pale, it was over...
With a "bang", the insect body fell down, and the mecha wrapped by it was cut out by a silver-gray combat mecha with a lightsaber.
"Hey, are you still alive?" The mecha pilot who rescued the man asked casually, and continued to fight without waiting for an answer.
The sky is slightly dim at this time, but the light remains forever.
Saved! The rescue mecha pilot who survived the disaster fell to the ground in a panic.
The rescue mech he was driving was severely corroded. Only the edges and corners of the mech shell were left, and the parts inside were exposed. The back was slightly better, but the two mech arms were almost completely corroded...
Several of his companions immediately looked for an opportunity to drag him away.
"It's so scary! Your luck is incredible!"
"Damn it, if it's a few seconds later you'll have to go see the Lord!"
"This damn thing is so fucking disgusting!"
"Hey, are you okay? Why aren't you talking?"
"Are you scared out of your wits? Hey!"
"Cough, cough, cough, I'm fine, I just feel a little weak, and it feels like my mental strength is being corroded. It's so damn uncomfortable..." the rescued driver said weakly in a muffled voice.
"Yeah, it's really fucking uncomfortable..."
A total of ten combat mechas were dispatched for this rescue operation, and five of them were participating in the battle at this time.
The strength of the decaying nematodes is average, but their corrosive ability is a headache. Their weakness is their brains, and you can use their compound eyes to accurately insert the light sword into their brains.
Of course, it doesn't have to go through the compound eyes, but the corrosive effect of the compound eyes is the weakest and they are closest to the brain and most convenient.
The battle ended when the last rot nematode was stabbed directly into the brain through the compound eyes by a red mecha's light knife.
It only takes a few minutes in total.
The five insect corpses lying on the ground were still in a runaway state, but the red lines no longer flashed red, and their flesh had completely turned into a pool of meat paste, barely sticking to the bones and shells.
The silver-gray mecha squatted in front of the bug he had killed and said with a click of the tongue, "It's actually a rot nematode?"
Major Zheng landed the rescue mecha and asked, "What's going on?"
"You are lucky." The silver-gray mecha driver chuckled.
"Yes, it's a blessing in disguise." Major Zheng said with a self-deprecating smile.
"Where's the kid?"
"He's lying in the treatment chamber. Do you want to go take a look?"
"That's not necessary. We still have to patrol the mountains."
"Patrolling the mountains?" Major Zheng frowned slightly.
"Yeah, yo, it's coming right over."
"Boss!" A man in combat protective clothing was holding a transparent box in his hand. Inside the box was the little beast abandoned by the fifth insect.
The pilot of the silver-gray mecha opened the cockpit and jumped out swiftly. After he jumped out, the mecha disappeared from the spot and was put into his mecha storage ring.
This is a man with gray hair. His facial features are not very outstanding when viewed individually, but when combined together, they reveal a frivolous and attractive temperament.
"I said, Lao Zheng, come out!" the man shouted.
"Shut up!" Major Zheng jumped out of the mecha and scolded.
"Hey, don't be so serious, come and take a look at this thing!" The man pointed at the box and said in a lively but sinister tone, "Speaking of which, it was this little thing that caused us to fall flat on our faces!"
Major Zheng looked at the miserable little beast and said coldly, "Any ideas?"
"Tsk, thank you for thinking highly of me." The man put his hand on Major Zheng's shoulder and said with a playful smile: "But if we look carefully, we will find everything."
"Are you sure?"
"At least we want to know the truth, right?"
"yes……"
