third rebirth

Ye Xiao is not a person who will indulge his emotions, especially now that he is in danger.Even though the last mantis man had been dealt with by Jiang Cancan and Jiang Mu, no one could be sure what would pop out of the darkness.

After crying for a while, and being fed another candy, Ye Xiao sniffed and withdrew from Ling Chen's arms, the tip of his nose and the tail of his eyes were red, he slowed down, feeling a little embarrassed.

The little ancestor finally stopped crying, but Ling Chen didn't dare to provoke him at all, so he pulled the clean side of his clothes and wiped the wet marks on his face, and then said, "Cancan, Xiaomu, who cried just now?" ?"

Jiang Mu didn't blink his eyes, "No."

After Jiang Cancan dealt with the mantis man, his hand holding the dagger was numb, but he was still very cooperative, trying to keep his expression solemn, "No one is crying? Where is anyone crying? Master Cancan, why didn't I see it?"

Ling Chen didn't squeeze Ye Xiao's face that felt so good, "Look, there's nothing to be embarrassed about."

Ye Xiao nodded, and buried his face in Ling Chen's arms again, his exposed ears were all red.Ling Chen's eyes overflowed with a smile, "Tsk, are you acting like a baby?"

Ye Xiao didn't answer, but his ears turned redder.

Ling Chen patted the thin waist of the person in his arms, hugged it vaguely, and stood lazily on the spot, "Report the battle damage."

Jiang Cancan moved over with his marching backpack on his back, rubbed his wrists to relax himself, and reported, "Master Can, my short blade has been curled and is on the verge of being scrapped. Horror! But so far, with the chrysalis, moths and the fight just now, I have used 120 rounds of bullets, and the other messes have not moved, and the ammunition is sufficient."

Jiang Mu answered, "I have enough bullets too. I only used the bullets, and the rest didn't move." He was not the firepower output of the team, and at most he was an assistant to Jiang Cancan, so most of the bullets in the tens of kilograms backpack were for help. Jiang Cancan's back.

Ye Xiao stood up straight, his voice was still hoarse, his eyelashes were still wet, and he reported earnestly, "Captain, my chopping is fine."

"Yeah." Ling Chen made up his mind, put his finger in Ye Xiao's hand and let him hold it, and said with lowered eyes, "First, this institute is quite evil, and I don't know what will happen next second." Please keep a high level of vigilance for any enemies that pop up. Second, the mantis people have been following us since we went down to the negative floor, from the first one to the current three, or there will be more The point is, the mantis people seem to want to stop us on the negative floor and prevent us from continuing to go down."

Jiang Mu agreed with Ling Chen's point of view, "At first, the mantis man just watched us and attacked Ye Xiao tentatively, and then hid away. They didn't show up again until we entered the stairwell."

Jiang Cancan took two pictures of himself, "According to the usual rules of novels and movies, there should be something they want to protect on the next level, either a big treasure or a big boss, anyway—"

Realizing that Ling Chen, Ye Xiao and Jiang Musan were looking at him, Jiang Cancan closed his mouth, and said with a dry smile, "Hahaha, anyway, the flag is not something that can be achieved every time, right? If it is achieved every time, I would have Just go and be a god of iron..."

However, Ling Chen said, "I agree with Cancan's statement, there might be something on the second floor or the third floor." He collected his expression, and glanced at the three people in front of him one by one, "Then, let's vote now Let's vote, shall we withdraw directly to the ground, or continue down?"

Hearing these words, Ye Xiao, who had been in a daze after the report, raised his head first, looked at Ling Chen, "I'll follow you."

Ling Chen didn't speak, and reached out to stroke his hair.

Jiang Mu pondered, "I choose to continue down, I have some conjectures that need to be confirmed."

Jiang Cancan didn't care, "I agree with Xiaomu."

Ling Chen nodded, "Okay, take care of things and prepare to leave." He paused for two seconds, and his usual casual smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Please survive, comrades."

The design of the gate on the second floor was no different from that on the first floor, Jiang Cancan opened it with just two strokes.But as soon as the four of them stepped in, they realized something was wrong.

"Fuck, what is this place for?" Jiang Cancan held a flashlight, cautiously not daring to shine the light too far, and inspected a small area in front of him.

Under the light, you can see more than a dozen iron cages of different sizes, and there is a sense of strictness when they are lined up.There is also a sign on the iron cage, marking the experiment number and species.

Ling Chen frowned, scanned the open lock of the iron cage and the dark blood stains on the iron railings, and did not speak.

Jiang Mu looked down at the three-dimensional map in his hand, and chose a direction, "Go this way."

The corridor was still very long, and the four of them were tense and didn't relax for half a second, but it was strange to find that there was nothing on the second floor except themselves.

Jiang Cancan whispered, "Why do I always feel creepy?"

Ye Xiao touched where his heart was beating, nodded, "My heart is beating so fast, I also feel it's very dangerous."

Nothing happened all the way to the end of the corridor, Ling Chen asked Jiang Mu, "Where are the stairs to the third floor?"

Jiang Mu pointed to the tempered door in front of several people, "Inside."

Jiang Cancan swallowed, "Bet on a piece of braised beef, the risk factor is as high as 80.00%!"

Ling Chen didn't answer, and quickly refilled the bullets in the magazine, "Cancan, open the door."

Jiang Cancan broke open the electronic lock a few times, and counted softly, "3-2-1-"

The moment the door was opened, juvenile praying mantises with a size of more than ten centimeters swarmed out. Jiang Cancan was still not immune to insects at all.

Ling Chen threw three A-type incendiary pop-ups in a row, and the bright orange flames rose up instantly. The firepower was so powerful that it quickly burned the young mantis to death.Ye Xiao grabbed the long knife, stared at the praying mantis who ran out of the fire circle, and cut everything accurately.

There was a smell of gunpowder and burning in the air, and Jiang Cancan had a sad face, "Master Can, I am most afraid of entering in my life. One is the Institute of Biology, and the other is the Museum of Insects. Here is the fucking Institute and the Insect Museum." A combination of museums? Where did so many praying mantises come from? Won't they all starve to death?"

Looking at Ling Chen, Jiang Mu asked Jiang Cancan, "I have a scary guess, do you want to hear it?"

Jiang Cancan nodded cowardly, "You...you say it."

Jiang Mu: "The cages and laboratories on this floor are all empty, and it is possible that the contents inside have become rations."

Jiang Cancan had a dull face, and he was a bit uncomfortable, and asked in a trembling voice, "Who...whose rations?"

Jiang Mu: "Either it's in here, or it's on the third floor."

Ling Chen was worried that Ye Xiao was afraid, so he put his arm on the other person's shoulder, and wrapped him around him, and added, "So, the one who stays last is also the most vicious. Comrade Jiang Cancan, please be mentally prepared."

Four people stepped through the glass door, inside was a square spacious space, the cement paste wall looked tattered, the corners were very damp, and there was a small stream of water soaking in from the outside.But the point is, unlike what was expected, there is nothing in it.

Ye Xiao's voice was very low, "There's something inside." He subconsciously moved his fingers holding the scabbard twice, and he said every word clearly, "The top of the head, 9 o'clock is 0.3, 3 o'clock is 0.7, and [-] o'clock is [-]." [-] direction."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Chen and Jiang Cancan pointed their guns towards the position Ye Xiao said almost at the same time, and there was a muffled "bang", and the bullets shot out through the wind.Ye Xiao discerned the subtle movements under the gunshots, and said affirmatively, "The captain's shot hit, Brother Cancan's bullet was dodged."

After a few seconds, the enemy was not forced out. It is not a good thing for me to be in the open and in the dark. Ling Chen popped out with a miniature tracer, "Ye Xiao, report your position again."

Ye Xiao didn't say much, and said with certainty, "There is no deviation at the six o'clock position, just shoot straight."

Before the sound of the word "shot" fell, Ling Chen's miniature tracer bullet had already fired, dragging a bright light in the darkness, the arc-shaped ballistic trajectory was like a star trail, and at the same time illuminated the entire room.

After seeing clearly, Ling Chen's pupils shrank slightly, "The target enemy is two mantis people, don't underestimate them, don't be the melon that was chopped down by the mantis people."

Jiang Mu added, "It is fully developed and nearly two meters tall. Compared with before, the difficulty factor is expected to double."

Facts have proved that the doubling of the difficulty factor mentioned by Jiang Mu is not unreasonable.The mantis man moved extremely fast, and when the big knife and sickle were cut down, there was a big hole on the wall.Ye Xiao took it hard by chopping water, and the scythe, which was much harder than before, was chopped down with great force, causing him severe pain in the jaw.Being so close, and meeting the opponent's green eyes, it gave people a terrifying feeling that they were about to be torn apart and eaten.

The pain was painful, but he didn't let out any strength in his hands. Ye Xiao exerted strength from his waist, and while the opponent's scythe was restrained, he raised his foot and kicked hard, hitting his abdomen.Keenly aware of the momentary slackening of the confrontational scythe, Ye Xiao gritted his teeth, exerted more force, and the tip of the knife spun, piercing into the mantis man's shoulder. The piercing was not deep, but the bright green blood had already overflowed. Come out and drop on the ground.

The Mantis Man let out an ear-piercing scream, stepped back quickly, and stared at Ye Xiao fearfully.Ye Xiao was panting, his eyes didn't flicker, he looked straight back, his aura was extremely strong, not weak at all.

In order not to disperse the fighting power, when Ye Xiao and the female mantis were dealing with each other, the other three were besieging the male mantis.Holding a dagger in his hand, Ling Chen had already cut off the opponent's forewing neatly. He stabbed the dagger with green blood into the wall, pulled out the K57 from Jiang Cancan's gun pouch, and shouted sharply, "Hold on! Five seconds will do! "

Jiang Cancan responded, "Damn it! Brother Chen, hurry up and aim, your strength is too damn strong! The point is that you are taller than Master Can and me!"

Ye Xiao, who was several steps away, followed up very actively, "It's also taller than me."

Ling Chen: "..." There was a silence for two seconds, and then he said, "Let me concentrate!"

The tacit understanding developed over the years is very reliable. Jiang Mu and Jiang Cancan desperately kept the position of the male praying mantis's forewing facing the direction where Ling Chen was - that was the fatal spot.Ling Chen's aim was excellent, the first bullet went in with the root of the wing, making a dull sound, and then, dark green blood burst out, Jiang Cancan helped Jiang Mu block it, and was covered in despair with a look of despair on his face.

After confirming that the male mantis was dying, the three of them rushed to support Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao didn't go up to the top all the time, walking the mantis man like flying a kite, except for a big cut in the coat of his combat uniform the length of his palm was cut by a scythe, he was not injured.But after connecting several attacks, his arm was a little numb from the shock.

Perhaps the death of the male praying mantis enraged the female praying mantis. Jiang Cancan rushed forward and cut a hole in the female praying mantis's abdomen with the blade. After that, she was thrown out heavily, and her back hit the concrete wall, rustling away. Less gray down.He wiped his face, and sat up panting, "Grass! Strength... so fucking great!"

Holding the gun in his big hand, Ling Chen half-kneeled on the concrete floor, looking at the female praying mantis whose back was wide open after being attracted by Ye Xiao, and fired a shot very steadily.The silencer covered up the sound, and the bullet accurately shot into the root of the opponent's forewing, but the female praying mantis only froze for a moment and did not fall down.

Jiang Cancan coughed and said with a smile, "Brother Chen, are you done?"

"Shut up, itchy skin?" Ling Chen squinted his eyes that were as cold as sharp blades, and cursed in a low voice, "Fuck". He noticed that Ye Xiao's arms were trembling, and it was obvious that he was about to be unable to withstand the continuous blows from his opponent. He calmed down and raised his voice slightly, "Ye Xiao, come again!"

Ye Xiao understood, he simply stopped his steps, his center of gravity sank, his right hand supported the long knife, his knees bent and he knelt down, basically giving up on self-protection.The female praying mantis slashed down with a pair of large scythes, her back bent with the movement, exposing the wing roots embedded with bullets.

The indoor light is very weak, and one of the four military flashlights has been scrapped, but for Ling Chen, it is completely enough.The corner of his mouth twitched into a chuckle, like a hunter hiding in the dark, he pressed his index finger hard, and the moment the recoil appeared, the bullet had already entered the previous bullet hole with great precision, exactly.

Hearing the sound of bullets piercing the air, Ye Xiao's body was extremely soft, rolled half a circle on the spot, stood up again, held the long knife, and stabbed hard at the bullet hole, so strong that the tip of the knife pierced into the cement in the field.

Ling Chen put away the gun, confirmed that the female praying mantis was completely dead, first took Ye Xiao's hand, rubbed it seriously, and asked him, "Were you scared just now?"

If Ling Chen's shot had missed, Ye Xiao, who was half kneeling on the ground, would most likely be hit by the female praying mantis' scythe.When he thinks about it now, his palms are sweating.

Ye Xiao: "Don't be afraid, I believe in you."

Ling Chen chuckled, and asked again, "Does it hurt?"

Ye Xiao has been able to endure pain since he was a child, he shook his head, "It doesn't hurt."

Ling Chen looked up at him, his smile was as casual as usual, but his voice was much softer, "The captain allows you to act like a baby."

Ye Xiao pursed his lips, feeling Ling Chen's rough fingertips pressing against the skin of his arm, and muttered, "Arm... hurts, and it's still sore."

After hesitating for two seconds, he spread out his fisted palms and showed them to Ling Chen, "The jaws of both hands are split, which is very painful. The skin on the palms is broken, and the handle of the knife is rubbed off, which also hurts." .”

Ling Chen listened to him whispering where he was hurting, there were no superfluous adjectives, and there was no tone, he just knew that it hurt, but he felt very overwhelmed, and had the feeling that he wanted to drag the two mantis people back again. The urge to kill once.

Ye Xiao had never been so coquettish before, he passed his hand forward unskillfully, and asked expectantly, "Captain, can you blow it off?"

Ling Chen stared at his calloused palm, two hands along his arm, and finally held his wrist and lifted it up. He lowered his head and seriously blew on the wound.

The underground was dark and damp, and there was still an unknown danger waiting for them, but at this second, Ling Chen held his thin wrist, feeling distressed.
