mother of all races

"I can kill them."

If they are threats—

Xavier wasn't all that concerned about where the worms came from.

It doesn't care about that.

As a new generation of king worms, it is completely instinctive to hate the descendants of other king worms.

"They're weak...I can clean them up in no time..."

At this moment, it just stared at the pale and sticky bodies of those tiny nematodes in disgust, and then said solemnly to Lin Xi.

All the white nematodes are biological weapons left by humans from the Providence to alien species. Considering this, it is a matter of course to eliminate them.

As soon as the words fell, Xavier had already spread his wings.

It barely concealed its terrifying appearance in front of Lin Xi, its mouthparts protruded, and a few drops of acid it secreted slowly dripped on the ground along its ferocious teeth.

A ball of metal-like foam suddenly appeared on the metal floor.

Lin Xi was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that Xavier had evolved a secretion to deal with the current situation in such a short period of time.

Well, maybe... As the king worm, Xavier does have a unique talent when dealing with the offspring born from the former mother of the alien species and the king worm.

But at the moment Xavier was about to rush out, Lin Xi grabbed the arm of his own king worm.

"and many more……"

He whispered to Xavier.

"I don't think it's right, these things are very dangerous..."

Lin Xi stared at the nematodes solemnly.

In addition to the lack of greed and fanaticism, there seems to be another terrible danger in the tiny bodies of these nematodes.It's just that the message Streeps left for Lin Xi was too vague, and now he can only vaguely feel that something is wrong but has no way to find it clearly.

...But anyway, if it's just a simple and soft nematode, why would human scientists choose such a creature as a biological weapon against alien species?

Lin Xi thought.

Then he turned his head and spoke coldly towards the window.

"These things are your heirs, they belong to you, you should have solved this trouble 300 years ago, instead of leaving it to me..."

Lin Xi said coldly to those ignorant nematodes in a rare cold tone.

Through a thick layer of glass, those white worms are still hovering and wriggling...

"They are your responsibility. Captain Scripps—"

Before Lin Xi could finish speaking, she frowned involuntarily.

Lin Xi could clearly see her swollen belly just by lowering her head.

The strong vitality brought by the new descendants kept surging in Lin Xi's belly.

These descendants who were supposed to be bred in peace gave Lin Xi something wrong, they seemed to be weirder than before... But at this time, Lin Xi didn't have the time to think about it at all.

While Lin Xi was talking, the nematode was still wriggling...

Some of them have even broken through the acid trap that Xavier made at the door... .

Their bodies melted too quickly under the corrosion of the acid, and the mucus formed could even easily dilute the concentration of the acid secreted by Xavier.

"I know you're here."

Lin Xi looked away from the nematodes, he held Xavier's hand tightly, and said slowly word by word.

"I know you can do it."

And this time, Scripps seemed finally convinced.

The former captain did respond to Lin Xi's request, but in an inhuman way——

Lin Xi heard something rubbing out from the ceiling and the special structure of the wall.

If those white nematode clusters hadn't blocked Lin Xi's sight, Lin Xi would have seen a large number of black metal gun muzzles suddenly appear on the originally smooth and clean wall of the cold storage warehouse.

As for the evaluation of the blocking device at the door of the freezer, some green data that should not have appeared was scrolling rapidly.

[Disinfection status... Mode [-]...]

【Total destruction...】

【start up……】

-

At the same time as those instructions were communicated, scorching flames shot out from the pitch-black muzzle.

Lin Xi's body swayed, and his face suddenly turned pale.

Those nematodes are very weak against high temperature.The pain caused by being burned by the flame directly pierced Lin Xi's soul from the instantly scorched nematode through a spiritual connection.

Scripps's solution to these white nematodes is so simple and crude that there is no beauty in it.

As a remote spaceship like the Providence, a device that can spray high temperature in any enclosed space is a must.

Ke Linxi didn't expect that Scripps would make such a big battle before making the request.

The flame spray gun burned most of the nematodes in a short moment. Although the command room where Lin Xi and Xavier were located had heat insulation devices, the air that had not yet burned was still extremely hot.

The roiling heat wave was like a wild beast rushing towards the face, and Lin Xi even felt that the skin of his body had become dry and stinging.

The white nematodes that were stuck to the glass plate began to curl and fall, and thin rays of light appeared between the gaps and the richness, and the light was so bright that it hurts the eyes.

Everything was so scorching hot, and everything was so cruel, and it didn't take long for all the white nematodes that had been attached to the observation window to fall down.

Bright firelight shines through the glass windows into the closed control room.

What followed was a horrible, charred protein stench.

The stench came from the body of the nematode that had been burnt into a small ball—Lin Xi shuddered, very suspicious that the danger that the nematode had not fully revealed might be hidden inside its body.

And at this time...

"Crack-"

The outside temperature rose to an extremely high level in a very short period of time, and the observation window, which was already crumbling, finally shattered under the load.

Small white cracks covered the entire glass in an instant, and also covered up the outside world.

But this was enough for Lin Xi. Just at that moment, Lin Xi had clearly seen that all the white nematodes besieging them had died under the high-temperature disinfection spray gun.

The only thing lingering is some nematodes that had poured into the control room along the gap before.

Their soft and slender bodies have become gray and shriveled under the high temperature, only a faint vitality remains inside.

But even so, after he noticed Lin Xi, he, they still rushed towards Lin Xi with extreme love and enthusiasm.

Lin Xi subconsciously raised his hands towards these fish that escaped the net. He could easily kill these tiny, disgusting monsters.

But at this moment, his mind suddenly became a little chaotic, and the pure attachment without a trace of impurities in the bodies of those weak nematodes just penetrated into his heart.

These pathetic creatures were stripped from their mother's body before they were fully conceived, and they never received any love and care from their mother's body from the beginning to the end.

This is exactly why the creature becomes so rapacious and twisted without sanity.

Lin Xi suspected that he was crazy. At this moment, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment...

"boom--"

Until the sound of shattering glass woke him up.

The cracked glass windows were finally completely shattered under the high temperature, and there was a crisp sound when they scattered... The flames, wrapped in countless crystal clear fragments, sprayed into the interior of the command room.

Lin Xi only had time to see the bright light in front of her eyes.

Xavier suddenly caught Lin Xi and pushed him back...

The golden-red flame swept away the remaining nematodes right in front of Lin Xi's eyes.

"Lin Xi, are you okay..."

Once the observation window that can isolate the outside world is broken, extremely high temperature immediately flooded into the room.

If it weren't for Lin Xi and Xavier who are monsters different from ordinary people now, they might have been roasted at this time.

But even considering their special physique, the control room at this moment has become extremely dangerous.

The flames continue.

Unlike conventional high-temperature disinfection, the flame did not completely disappear after all the nematodes were eliminated.Instead, they clung to every surface of the furniture, burning as if they could burn the entire Providence to death.

Of course, the worst things are far from these... With her extra keen senses, Lin Xi could hear some ominous voices coming from the far away madness.

It was the sound of the exhaust system being reversed, and the click of a large number of metal doors as they slammed and locked.

"Damn, it's an automatic fire suppression program, they're going to vacuum this place up..."

Lin Xi said immediately.

And the negative pressure is likely to tear both him and Xavier to pieces.

"We have to get out of here..."

Before he finished speaking, his eyes were darkened, which was because Xavier rolled it up directly.

"Xavier?! Wait a minute, you—"

What do you want to do?

Lin Xi couldn't ask the second half of the sentence at all, because Xavier's wings were wrapped too tightly.

The young, strong, huge, and ferocious king worm just hugged his worm mother tightly in his arms, and then rushed out directly.

The overly agile speed even made Lin Xi in its arms feel a weightless feeling...

God knows how Xavier did it (considering the special circumstances at the time, Lin Xi is sure that Scripps must have helped them) When Lin Xi was finally released by Xavier, they were far away the original control room.
