Inside the cold storage.

Ta Chi looked at Chang Mingyue and said, "You are a girl. If you go to the hatchery, you will become a target. How about this? You stay here to guard the entrance to the maintenance passage. You must not let the Zerg get close, otherwise we will not be able to retreat back."

Chang Mingyue did not refute, but nodded, indicating that she would stay.

Ta Chi looked at Kes again and said, "We haven't found that kind of ore yet. You stay and continue looking. If Mingyue is in danger, you have to come and help."

Kes glanced at Chang Mingyue and nodded.

Ta Chi looked at Liu Dachui again and said, "You go to the hatching ground with me, Eagle Rabbit and others to rescue our companions."

Liu Dachui looked at Chang Mingyue, and only nodded when he saw Chang Mingyue nod.

Next, except Chang Mingyue and Kes who remained in the cold storage, the rest of the people went to the hatching site through the maintenance passage above the cold storage.

Chang Mingyue leaned half of his body out of the maintenance passage, holding a crescent hook in his hand, and stood guard near the maintenance passage.

Seeing Ta Chi and the others walking away, Kes, who was below, frowned and walked into the refrigerated cabin display room.

They had just arrived and had no idea what the ore on Planet 48 looked like. The Retrograde had more than 48 refrigerated compartments, which were originally vacated to store the ore found on Planet .

But surprisingly, the Return had already been to Planet 48, and the refrigerated compartments were actually empty.

Kes was extremely annoyed. Although he had already watched it once, he still didn't find any clues when he watched it again.

Suddenly, he found a handful of fine sand on the ground.

Kes was stunned, and immediately followed the traces of fine sand on the ground and walked to the back of a refrigerated cabin.

There were a lot of sealed barrels piled there.

Kes knew that these barrels were usually filled with soil found on unknown planets.

Their company would bring back a lot of soil, analyze it themselves, do a study on how beneficial it is to crops, and then sell the soil in large quantities to the military in the Eastern Galaxy to grow grain reserves.

These soils are easy to obtain on unknown planets. Generally, after they take them for research and find that there is nothing special about them, they will not put them in the cold storage to take up space. Instead, they will put the soils into these barrels and take them back for further research or sale.

Kes walked over and pried open the lid of the bucket, and then found the same sand in the bucket as on the ground.

"sand?"

Kes was stunned.

It was obvious that this sealed barrel had been opened. The sand in the barrel was not full and it was obvious that some of it had been taken away.

Who took it?

Does this sand have any special uses?

Kes suddenly remembered that when he, Tachi and the other two, as well as Lu Lulu and Chang Mingyue were looking for ore separately, Lu Lulu seemed to be looking in this direction.

Could it be Lu Lulu?

Kes suddenly felt that if these sands were taken by Lu Lulu, then they might really be useful.

Thinking of this, Kes reached out to check the sand, but he didn't expect that as soon as his skin touched the sand, it was quickly corroded as if it had touched sulfuric acid.

In just a few seconds, a puff of green smoke came out from the tip of his right index finger.

He let out a shrill scream and pulled his hand back abruptly. He was sweating profusely from the pain. He saw that his fingertips had turned into a ball of black liquid that was still reacting with the sand, leaving only a thin layer of carbon-like substance.

The sand seemed to have been consumed, leaving a small empty hole.

"What's wrong, Kex!?"

Chang Mingyue heard Kes' screams and asked quickly.

Kes stared at the sand in a daze, and in an instant he seemed to understand something. Without thinking, he said, "I'm fine! I just kicked the bulkhead by accident, and my toe hurts badly."

Chang Mingyue, who was guarding the entrance of the maintenance passage, frowned, thinking, why would he scream so miserably if it was just a kick of the toe.

She listened to the cry...it was a bit strange, not like a sound a normal human could make.

Chang Mingyue had a feeling that something was wrong, but it was not easy for her to leave the maintenance port to see what was going on. After all, at this moment, Ta Chi and the other three had already reached the two female mercenaries in the front.

Strangely enough, there were not many adult Zergs in the hatching ground. Those half-grown Zergs and the thawed Zerg babies on the ground were also unable to successfully counterattack under the armed suppression of Ta Chi and Liu Da Chui.

Feel………

Some of it went too smoothly.

Chang Mingyue felt uneasy.

To make sure Kes was okay, she said, "Come here, I'll check on you."

Kes responded, then put on his gloves with trembling hands, closed the barrel lid with trembling hands, and slowly backed away from the sealed barrels step by step.

Chang Mingyue was a little surprised when she saw Kes coming over. She didn't expect that he would actually come over.

But now Kes's face was a little pale, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

"Are you okay? You don't look well."

Chang Mingyue frowned.

Kes wiped his body with gloves, then wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

He ignored Chang Mingyue and looked at the four people of Ta Chi.

The four men of Tachi seemed to be trying to pull the sausage out of the female mercenary's mouth and nose, and it seemed that it would take some time.

He looked at Chang Mingyue: "Do you think those female mercenaries are still human?"

Chang Mingyue pursed her lips and looked at the protective suit she had placed next to her: "When I escaped from the hatchery, the mercenary sister next to me helped me."

"I don't know whether they are humans, Zerg, or something in between, but..."

Chang Mingyue clenched the crescent hook in her hand and said firmly: "As long as they still have humanity, they are still human beings."

Kes was silent.

After a long while, he asked, "What if they are beyond saving? What if their humanity is also slowly disappearing?"

Chang Mingyue sighed softly: "For everything, you have to try it before you know it, right?"

“Look, we’re trying it now.”

Kes smiled softly, glanced at Chang Mingyue, and looked much more relaxed: "You, including Ta Chi, are all idiots."

Chang Mingyue felt confused and ignored Kes.

Kes didn't say anything else, but took out a gun from his briefcase and handed it to Chang Mingyue: "Your weapon is only suitable for close combat, use this."

Chang Mingyue lowered his head, looked at the gun in Kes's hand, and raised his eyebrows: "Pulse gun? This is a good thing."

Kes put the gun next to Chang Mingyue, looked at the empty index finger of his right hand under his glove without leaving a trace, and said in a voice without any emotion: "I can't use it anymore, I give it to you."

Chang Mingyue didn't hesitate. He put away the crescent hook, picked up the heavy pulse gun, and glanced at the energy grid. There was still half of it. As long as there were no large-scale Zergs, it should be enough.

"Thanks."

Chang Mingyue smiled at Kes, but Kes ignored her and just watched Ta Chi and the others from a distance.

Ta Chi and the others didn't have any better ideas, so they decided to use Lu Lu Lu's freezing gun to freeze the sausages inserted into the female mercenary's mouth and nose, and then slowly pull the sausages out of the female mercenary's body.

He did it as he thought, and Ta Chi shot the sausage above a female mercenary.

Suddenly, the part of the sausage close to the female mercenary was frozen.

Liu Dachui and Rabbit immediately pulled one each and slowly pulled out the slightly twisting sausage.

Suddenly, the female mercenary who was being rescued began to twitch wildly, with a large amount of bright red blood gushing out of her mouth. The women sitting in a row against the wall also began to twitch at the same time.
