Chapter 289 Lord Level Parasite (please subscribe)

Sima Changguang was implanted with high-level military prosthetics early on, and his many years of military career have given him strong combat capabilities and adaptability.

Even though he was at a disadvantage of one against two, and the enemy was still an elite soldier parasitized by the insect swarm, he still had an absolute advantage.

When two soldiers rushed toward him, he grabbed the arm of the soldier who claimed to be Rolf, pulled the other man, and blocked the other man in front of him.

The other soldier who rushed over bumped into Rolf's body, and even the tentacles with mouths pierced the other's body, while he hid behind him unscathed. Then he pulled the trigger of the pistol aimed at Rolf, and saw a beam of light burst out from the muzzle, which instantly penetrated Rolf's head and opened a big hole that smelled of burning.

Then, he pointed the muzzle of the gun at another soldier and continued to pull the trigger. The muzzle of the gun continued to fire pulse lasers according to his movements. In just an instant, he punched several holes in the other soldier's head, emitting the same The burnt smell.

Sima Changguang threw the corpse in his hand down and took a breath. Although he didn't know what those monsters were capable of, the brain was the central system of human beings. As long as the brain was destroyed, the body would be paralyzed.

Even if those monsters have the ability to repair themselves, it still takes time to repair them, which is why he chose to shoot in the brain.

The battle between the two sides only lasted two breaths. If he hesitated for a moment, he would have to report directly to the God Emperor.

Holding the gun in one hand, he crouched down and used the other hand to examine the bodies of the two soldiers.

Nameplates, biological seals, epaulettes, identity verification and other things are all complete. Enter personal information for query, and the appearance is the same. There is no doubt that both of them are Imperial soldiers with pure human blood.

It's just that the tentacles in the opponent's mouth are by no means human organs. It is obvious that some changes have occurred that caused these two soldiers to undergo such strange changes.

At this time, footsteps were heard, and a fully armed patrol team wearing combat armor appeared at the end of the corridor.

They heard the sound of fierce fighting here, and rushed over to check the situation. When they saw the corpse on the ground, they immediately assumed a fighting posture, pointed their guns at the corpse and Sima Changguang, and at the same time checked whether there were other places. There are also suspicious targets.

The captain walked up to Sima Changguang and opened the visor of his helmet, revealing a handsome face with clear lines.

He glanced at the two corpses on the ground. They were both shot in the head and killed the enemy with a single shot.

The tentacles protruding from the corpse's open mouth are particularly eye-catching, and it looks like a standard heresy at first glance. At the end, the captain turned his attention to Sima Changguang. The identity detection system showed that the other party was a high-ranking commander of the ground forces, general level.

"We are the 744 patrol team. I am the captain - Norbert. General Sima Changguang. Can you tell us what is going on here?" the captain asked.

Sima Changguang stood up from the corpse, "Invasion, these two soldiers have been alienated. Immediately send an alarm and require all troops to enter the first level of alert. The enemy may still be hiding and must be found out, otherwise they will wait until they enter the Holy Judgment The key position of the number is troublesome, and it may affect the battle in the void outside."

Norbert glanced at Sima Changguang, and considering his military rank and the corpse on the ground, he finally decided to follow his order.

He opened the communication channel connected to the summit.

"An alienated imperial soldier was found in the middle of Corridor 74 on the port side. It is suspected that he has been invaded. General Sima Changguang is present at the scene. We request technical personnel to come to the scene and request that the first-level alert state be activated immediately and all personnel screened."

After he finished speaking, he repeated it again. After receiving a confirmed answer, he turned off the communication and made a gesture to signal the team members to spread their guard, protect the scene, and wait for the arrival of professionals.

The response speed of various departments in the empire was still very fast. Norbert's report quickly attracted attention, and the first-level alert was activated. All soldiers wore combat armor, held weapons, and were ready for battle. At the same time, they screened for potential threats in the fleet. of enemies.

Half a minute later, Wang Ben, fully armed, walked out of the strategy room. Behind him were several tall legion soldiers. They walked to the scene where Sima Changguang was fighting the two monsters. The long tentacles The tongue immediately exposed their inhuman status.

A team of technical sergeants also rushed over at this time. They performed anatomy and comprehensive scans on the two dead soldiers on the spot, and found that their brains had undergone mutations and that multiple organs in their bodies had also been reorganized. If time passes a little longer, I'm afraid the abnormality will not just be the tentacles in the mouth, but the entire body will turn into a monster.

"They are parasitized. This should be a parasite belonging to the insect swarm. It controls the human brain." A technical sergeant extracted a bug as big as a baby's fist from the brain, and it has been integrated with the human brain. , connected together by complex nerve bundles, Sima hit it with one shot, directly causing the death of the soldier and the parasite.

"The parasite changes the flesh and blood structure of the parasitized person and consciously shapes it into a killing weapon. And look here." The technical sergeant lifted up the tentacle in his mouth. "This tentacle contains a large amount of genetic material and larvae. As long as it is When injected into a living person, the infection can be completed in tens of seconds, and within a few minutes the person can become a slave and container of the insect swarm, and at the same time have a new tentacle and become a new source of infection."

Everyone present looked solemn when they heard that parasites could also infect people. This method was much stronger than that of the Kara parasite.

The Kra parasite needs to put its larvae into human bodies, and then it will take a long time to corrupt and assimilate humans.

It only takes a moment for the parasites of the insect swarm to control a human being and even transform it into a professional killing weapon. There is no comparison between the two.

The technical sergeant added, "Of course, infection is conditional. The larvae must enter the human brain to gain control. Only after gaining control can the body be fully modified, so the injection location is generally chosen to be in the mouth or throat. There are blood vessels that provide blood and nutrients to the brain. As long as the larvae and genetic material are injected into the blood vessels, the larvae can quickly spread in the human brain with the help of the blood supply, absorb nutrients, grow, assimilate with the brain, and ultimately control the entire body."

"It's so easy to get infected. I'm afraid this thing has already spread. We must clean it up as soon as possible. The longer it takes, the more dangerous it becomes." Sima Changguang looked at Wang Bi, "At this stage, only Legion Soldiers can ensure 100% that they will not be infected, so the task of clearing out these enemies can only be carried out by legionnaires. The gang-hopping tactics you wanted to try before may have to be postponed."

Storm warriors contain a variety of technologies and are blessed by the God-Emperor. They can survive in space or even alien environments without the help of any equipment. There is no need to worry about alien germs.

These parasites can parasitize ordinary people, but they cannot parasitize legionnaires. It cannot be said that they will be killed by the powerful immune system of legionnaires as soon as they enter.

Wang Ben nodded and looked at Rogers, who was serving as his personal guard, "Inform all companies immediately to give up the gang-hopping plan, and first assist the armed forces to clear out the infiltrated enemies."

"Understood." After Rogers saluted, he turned around to inform each company, and at the same time summoned the guards company to prepare for battle.

At this time, Morton opened the communication again and told everyone an important message.

"We collected the parasites and previous samples and found that the IQs of these bugs are different. They should be divided into levels. The higher the level, the higher the IQ and the more cunning. At the same time, we also found that these bugs can receive external Brain wave information, they are most likely controlled by higher-level bugs, forming a strict hierarchical society. I have legitimate reasons to suspect that among the enemies who infiltrated the Holy Inquisition, there may be a creature to receive the information from the brood. information and then pass that information on to other bugs.”

"They also have such a complex and complete social hierarchy??" Wang Ben's tone was filled with fear. The more he dug into the secrets of these bugs, the more frightening he became. The other party's methods were really unbelievable, and some aspects were more... Humanity still needs to be more advanced.

"I'm afraid the social hierarchy is nothing. I'm worried that the creature that serves as the node can not only receive brain wave signals, but also receive subspace information. After all, brain waves can only travel at the speed of light in the real universe. , but subspace can ignore this and transmit instructions faster."

"Then they will also have some subspace existence behind them??" Sima Changguang heard Morton's guess and put forward his own hypothesis.

"There may be some kind of metaphysical will of the swarm, like the legendary Gestalt hive mind." Morton replied in the communication, "But it's not the time to study this yet, find the node as soon as possible Creatures, those bugs left on the Holy Inquisition have lost most of their threats, and are just stragglers. Remember to capture the node creature, and send it here. It’s best to live or die. We must We need to understand as soon as possible the habits and social structure of these bugs, and how they give orders and act in unison."

When the communication was cut off, Rogers happened to arrive with his personal guard company.

"Operation, eliminate the parasites that have infiltrated the Holy Inquisition."

Wang Ben didn't talk nonsense and just asked people to take action. From the technicians' mouths, he has learned about the horror of these bugs. They are more difficult to deal with, more powerful, and more brutal than the Krat parasites.

If they lose and let the bugs step on their corpses and enter the galaxy, it will be a disaster for the newly rising Galactic Empire. All humans will become food for the bug swarm, and they must be blocked. In the Tyranx Sector.

There is some kind of communication method between parasites that humans do not understand. When Sima Changguang had just killed two parasites and the empire learned that there were intruders and was about to take action, the parasitized humans no longer hid their Having lost their identity, they do whatever they can to knock down innocent soldiers and infect them, just like zombies, except that those controlled by parasites are much smarter than zombies.

The mouths of those infected can open like petals and stretch out tentacles with bone spurs. Some infected people can turn their arms into tentacles, which can be extended and contracted freely. The ends usually have sharp limbs that can be used as weapons. It can easily disembowel Imperial soldiers wearing combat armor, or control them and inject larvae into them to turn them into infected.

The longer an infected person mutates, the more abilities they have and the more difficult they are to deal with.

If you hit those infected with a gun, they won't feel any pain. Only if you hit the head can they be completely eliminated. However, some infected people are so mutated that their heads can split like petals. Hitting the head no longer works, it must be completely destroyed to eliminate it.

<divclass="contentadv">The infected were causing chaos on multiple decks, attacking important cabins, trying to destroy the empire's void power from within. Many places were severely damaged, and some people failed to react in time and were attacked by those infected. Poisonous hands.

Fortunately, if it is discovered early, the balance of power between humans and infected people is still overwhelming. If it were later and the number of infected people increased, it would be a troublesome thing. The void war is very likely to be caused by them. The invasion failed, resulting in the collapse of the First Expeditionary Force fleet.

The armed forces who responded were wearing heavy armor, holding weapons and flamethrowers, and with the cooperation of the ship's bridge, they used armored hatches to cut through the infected team, disperse them, and annihilate them one by one.

The empire had an absolute advantage in terms of number of soldiers, weapons, mechas, drones, combat armors and many other equipment. The infected were annihilated by the armed forces, and it didn't take long for the corridors and trunks of each ship to be destroyed. The road was covered with blood and broken flesh.

On the Holy Inquisition, Wang Ben and others are still looking for the node creature. Only by completely eliminating the node creature can the enemy's invasion be thwarted. Otherwise, the enemy will hide in the dark and come back at any time.

The hard work paid off. After half an hour of investigation, Wang Ben and others finally found the target. The target was in the dormitory of a corps.

When the Void War began, the soldiers of that regiment had just completed their patrol rotation. Everyone was exhausted. When they returned to the dormitory, they fell asleep on their stomachs, trying to seize the time to restore their mental and physical strength and prepare for the possible battle that would break out next.

The void war is cruel, but as long as you experience it more, you will get used to it, and you will understand that worrying is of no use. They will become the kind of people who will die tomorrow but can eat and sleep as usual today.

The parasite took the lead in getting rid of the patrolling guards, and then infected the sleeping soldiers one by one. Tens of thousands of people in a regiment were quietly transformed by the infection.

If Sima Changguang hadn't discovered it early and more than 10,000 people had gone out and infected others, it would have been a catastrophe. Node creatures were also born among so many infected people, commanding this invasion.

Unfortunately, human armed forces are overwhelming to the infected, and no matter how the node creatures are deployed, they cannot change the failed battle situation.

Tens of thousands of infected bodies were blocked and shot in a narrow environment. They were chopped into pieces by legionnaires wielding swords. Blood stained the walls and floors. The smell of blood and the smell of burning were mixed together, making it extremely disgusting.

Wang Ben took the lead, reaching that speed, cleaving all the infected people in his way into pieces, and then walked into the messy dormitory area, with blood and traces of battle still remaining.

Some soldiers sensed something was wrong and immediately launched a resistance. However, they were unable to withstand the huge number. They were torn to pieces by the monsters before even raising the alarm.

Wang Ben could imagine the despair of those soldiers before they died. They shouted for help or cried out the name of the God Emperor, but were eventually overwhelmed by the enemy.

Their former companions turned into monsters and pounced on them like zombies, tearing open their stomachs, tearing out their intestines and internal organs, and even their limbs were torn off alive.

Wang Ben walked in step by step. The lumen lights in the dormitory area had been destroyed. Only the alarm lights were still flashing. The scarlet light smeared the entire dormitory area and at the same time stretched Wang Ben's appearance.

Deep in the dormitory area, a man wearing an imperial officer's uniform stood there.

When he heard the footsteps, the man turned around. He still looked like a human. It was his eyes that betrayed him, revealing evil and hatred that humans would never possess.

This man is obviously the node between parasites and insect swarms, a lord-level parasite.

Lord level is the grading name given by technicians to the insect swarm. The command model of the insect swarm is very similar to the ancient king-lord system. The king (the will of the insect swarm) issues orders, and the lord (node ​​creature) leads the soldiers (ordinary insects) to perform tasks. , perfect the details.

Node creatures are naturally called lord creatures by technicians.

The man showed a terrifying smile to Wang Ben, and then its entire head split open and turned into a twisting tentacle, with sharp joints at the end. It could leave traces on thick stone slabs and armor plates by waving it at will. A series of shocking traces.

Wang Ben clenched the sword in his hand, wary of the possible attack from this lord-level monster. He did not attack, and neither did the other party. Both sides were waiting for the other to attack first.

One man and one insect faced each other, and Wang Ben sensed an ancient and evil wisdom in the monster's eyes. Wang Ben was nearly a hundred years old, but compared to the real owner of those eyes, he was just a babbling. baby.

The individuals in the insect swarm are independent yet integrated. When necessary, they will act separately and think with their own brains, and sometimes they will merge into one and obey a unified consciousness. Just like a pond can exist independently, but when it meets the sea, it will merge into one without hesitation, regardless of each other.

++Resistance is meaningless. Only integrating into the Great Devourer is the real salvation and the real salvation of the universe. Ignorant creatures, you know nothing about the truth and are just ignorantly resisting the future that is bound to come+ +

The other party's will echoed in Wang Ben's mind, like a strange whisper in the subspace.

Countless pictures were displayed in Wang Ben's mind, showing those ancient and vast wars, showing those assimilated creatures. Those ancient galaxies were extinguished one after another, and countless races were swallowed up by countless insect swarms, integrating with the will of the insect swarms in another weird posture.

To a certain extent, those creatures have also been sublimated and become part of an existence comparable to the gods of subspace. According to the gods of subspace, those creatures have gained eternity.

+Get out of my head, damn monster, no one needs your salvation, this is the galaxy, this is human territory, we have our own way++

Wang Ben did not give in because of those horrific scenes. Even if the stars were dim and there was a cruel killing field outside the galaxy, he also firmly believed in the future promised by the God Emperor.

One day, they will transcend everything, get rid of evil gods, get rid of traitors, get rid of these alien races, and get a truly glorious future.

The monster roared, probably thinking that the sound could interfere with the enemy's judgment, and then its muscles contracted at a speed invisible to the naked eye, getting ready for battle.

It rushed over at an astonishing speed, waving those weird tentacle blades and slashing at Wang Ben's position.

The weapons of both sides collided, making a thunderous sound, and sparks flying everywhere, but the strength of the lord-level parasites was far beyond that of ordinary parasites. More tentacle blades came slashing at them, and they could cut through the stone slabs and steel on the ground with a single blow. .

Wang Ben only had two hands and a sword. He had no way to fight against this monster that could split its tentacles. He could only fight and dodge at times, and was beaten back by the opponent's violent attacks.

The two tentacles contracted suddenly, and the strong and sharp joints instantly jammed Wang Ben's sword. The friction between the weapons caused sparks and electric sparks to burst out at the same time.

At this time, several other tentacles attacked, heading straight for his face, trying to split him in two.

At this moment, Wang Ben seemed to see the messenger of the God Emperor calling him.

boom!boom!

Two explosions brought him back to reality. Two blaster beams landed on the tentacles, causing an explosion that shattered the tentacles, allowing Wang Ben, who was at a disadvantage, to regain the advantage again.

Liu Xia and the other two warriors held swords in one hand and blasters of astonishing caliber in the other. Each blaster beam hit the monster and shattered its dancing tentacles.

"You should wait for us." Liu Xia shouted, "A lone hero is never a good choice. If you always act alone like this, I will have to consider the ceremony arrangements for taking office first."

Wang Ben showed a smile and said, "If you want to become the commander of the army, it is probably a bit difficult. You will have to wait for several years."

"I hope there won't be that day." Liu Xia said, "I don't like the position of army commander. It's quite fun to be a deputy."

Wang Ben did not argue with Liu Xia anymore. He took steps and sprinted towards the opponent. The sound of heavy footsteps echoed in the corridor. When he got close enough, he slashed at the lord-level leader with his sword. The parasite is about to split it in two.
