The Return of Cambrian Period
Chapter 32
Four months later.
"This temperature can really freeze people to death." Cong Xia looked at the recorder and sighed.
Cheng Tianbi said: "It's already minus 26 degrees. It's never been so cold. The northeast has broken through minus [-] degrees. It's not long before winter begins."
"Many people will not be able to survive the winter this year."
Zhuang Yao said: "The Antarctic ice sheet has expanded by more than 400 kilometers year-on-year, and the global climate has been affected. This winter will only get colder and colder. Beijing may reach minus [-] degrees. This will be the coldest winter in human history. "
Liu Fengyu said: "If it's so cold, will it be safer for us to go to Qinghai? Many animals should have hibernated."
Zhuang Yao shook his head: "Animals are better able to adapt to harsh environments than humans, and many animals have changed their habits. Those who should hibernate should not hibernate, and those who should be vegetarian should eat meat instead. Although it will be better than spring and summer, don't hug too much." Great hope, your problem of keeping warm is much more serious than the problem of encountering mutant animals."
Cong Xia smiled bitterly and said, "Anyway, it's absolutely right to prepare for the worst."
Cheng Tianbi asked, "Did Wu You call back?"
"Go back, he decided to go with us, and we will meet in Yunnan."
"This kind of weather is like a fish in water for him, he is ice himself."
"Shen Changze is not afraid, it's really enviable."
Cong Xia said: "Then the list is finalized, we, Dragon Blood Clan, Jiujiang County, Frost Society."
This lineup is absolutely unprecedented, which is enough to show the arduousness of this task.
At this time, Cong Zhenzhong walked into the meeting room: "I just received an important message from the Moscow government."
"what news?"
"They know that you are about to leave for Qinghai, and they implore you to save Dacqueline."
"Daiquilin is indeed in Qinghai." They had expected it.
Zhuang Yao sarcastically said, "I can't hide it at last."
Cong Zhenzhong put the telegram on the table: "They have been trying to rescue them, but they have not been successful."
Chengbi said in a deep voice: "Illegal entry, or entering Qinghai, risking being accused by us to make a request, must be desperate. Have you asked why they sent Dacqueline to Qinghai? Don't you know the danger? ?”
Cong Zhenzhong nodded and said, "Yes, they said that Dacqueline asked for it herself, because according to Dacquiline, she 'must go to Qinghai', and she 'heard the whispers of plants and the whispering of the wind'."
Liu Fengyu frowned and said, "What do you mean? Writing poetry?"
"That's what they said. Dacqueline insisted on going. I guess she can get a lot of information from plants. She must know something, so you must find her when you go to Qinghai."
Cheng Tianbi said in a deep voice: "If she is still alive."
Cong Xia patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, her ability is very special, she won't die easily."
Liu Fengyu spread his hands: "In this way, there will be five natural force evolutionists entering Qinghai, and there may be other natural force evolutionists there. If we can't get out, it will be really interesting."
Zhuang Yao said: "It's very possible, get ready."
Cong Zhenzhong looked at Cong Xia: "Are you all ready?"
Zhuang Yao said: "As of today, all the weapons, armors, and tools have been modified. I will show them this afternoon. They are all modified on the basis of the original weapons. It is easy to use. A week later, we will officially set off .”
"Okay, if you have any other requirements, please bring them all up, and we will try our best to meet them."
"This is a big operation, how many people are there?"
"The 48 people are all high-level mutants." Cong Zhenzhong patted Cong Xia on the shoulder, "Xiao Xia, you have worked hard these days."
Cong Xia said: "I also benefit from improving the team's combat effectiveness."
Deng Xiao yelled: "Let's eat, Mu Fei sent [-] kilograms of pine nuts a few days ago, and Master Wu said to bake pine nut pies today!"
Cong Zhenzhong said with a smile: "You guys go, a new batch of compressed fuel will be distributed throughout the city, and I have to go over and sign."
Cong Xia said: "How much can each person receive?"
"10 grams per person can last for two hours."
"It's only been two hours..."
"This is the limit of our current output. Now they don't know how to use it. Before the coldest time, we will try our best to increase the output. If we save a batch until the coldest time, it should save lives."
Zhuang Yao said indifferently: "It's not easy to hunt in cold weather, and it's easy to starve to death if you don't freeze to death."
Cong Zhenzhong didn't seem to want to continue this topic, he said: "Leave this to us to worry about, you go to dinner."
Compared with those ordinary people who are precarious, they have a warm environment and endless food, and they seem to be living in heaven, but they have to challenge hell again and again.
The freshly baked pine nut pie was brought up, and immediately filled the room with fragrance. The pine nuts were all the size of a peanut, and when bitten down, they were soft and crispy, with a fragrance on the lips and teeth, so delicious that Deng Xiao almost burst into tears.
Liu Fengyu said: "Mu Fei is really interesting, he always thinks about us when there are delicious food."
Cong Xia nodded: "Yeah, he is really a good man, without him, Devil Pine would have turned us all into hedgehogs."
Deng Xiao said with great expectation: "If we can come back from Qinghai alive, let's go and see him. He will definitely entertain us with a lot of delicious food."
Zhuang Yao gave him a blank look: "Devil Song said that the puppet jade must be handed over to us in person, so Cong Xia must go again, so you don't have to go."
"Why?"
"Because, it's not necessary."
Deng Xiao snorted: "I must go."
"You go on foot, I have no objection."
Deng Xiao squinted his eyes, grabbed Zhuang Yao and lifted it above his head, and ran away: "Oh, oh, fly high——"
Zhuang Yao shouted angrily: "Idiot, let me down!"
In the afternoon, they collectively came to the underground training ground in the sixth district, and all the weapons and armor were brought over.
The four members of the Dragon Blood Clan were already waiting.Zhuang Yao tailor-made weapons for them, and the other entourage of the Dragon Blood Clan, including those from Jiujiang County and Frost Society, will also get unlimited energy weapons.
Boxes of weapons and armor were lined up, and half of the huge underground training ground was occupied, which was spectacular.
Everyone is gearing up and looking forward to it.
Zhuang Yao said, "We should first look at weapons or armor?"
Cong Xia said: "Armors." He has worked hard for more than half a year for these armors. This is the most sophisticated and complicated thing he has made so far, and he can't wait to show his results.
Zhuang Yao took out a flat suitcase, which was only the size of a boarding suitcase, but it had a 64-digit password.
Shen Changze said unexpectedly: "Is the armor inside?"
Cong Xia laughed and said, "That's right."
"who?"
"For everyone, seven for us, four for you, one for Yao Qianjiang and one for Wu You."
Everyone looked at the small box suspiciously.
Zhuang Yao opened the box.
The box was covered with a layer of blue velvet, and on the velvet were thirteen pieces of jade the size of fingernails. There were four kinds of jade in total, two pieces of suet jade, three pieces of emerald, three pieces of red agate, and five pieces of blue jade. spar.
Shan Ming casually picked up a suet jade: "This is our armor? Is the color divided according to the energy attribute?"
Cong Xia said: "Yes, the armor in your hand is the medium of Cambrian energy. It belongs to the two of us. Emerald represents wood energy and belongs to Tianbi, Yanqiu and Abu. Red agate represents fire energy. Brother Liu, Major Shen and Al's, kyanite represents water energy, and belongs to others."
"How do they serve as armor?"
Cong Xia held a mutton jade in his hand, and he could clearly "see" the energy armor unfolding under his urging, instantly covering his whole body: "Brother Shan, shoot me."
Shan Ming took out his gun without hesitation and shot him in the arm.
The bullet came out, and there was a loud "bang", and Cong Xia was shocked to take three steps back. When he took a closer look, the bullet was suspended two centimeters in front of him, as if it was stuck by something invisible, and finally "popped" "It fell to the ground with a sound, and Cong Xia was unscathed.
Shan Ming's eyes lit up: "Damn, it's so powerful."
Cong Xia rubbed his arm: "The impact is quite strong." The energy armor blocked the bullet, but it couldn't block the impact of the bullet, and his arm was so painful from the shock.
Cheng Tianbi frowned and said, "You have to use this method to experiment?"
Cong Xia chuckled: "This is the most intuitive way, it's okay."
"This thing is so powerful, how do you 'wear' it on, just hold the stone in your hand?" Al picked up a red agate and fiddled with it.
"I can only help you to wear it." Cong Xia explained, "Let me explain the principle. I put energy into these jade stones, and when the jade stones come into contact with your body, I will release the energy armor for you, so that the armor and you The body is integrated into one. The armor uses your own energy as the energy source. Once your energy is too weak, the armor will not work. As long as you keep the energy in your body, the armor can be used forever. In addition, if your energy is extremely weak When the armor is attacked, it may be completely damaged."
Cong Zhenzhong praised: "It's really a good thing. With this, how many stray bullet attacks can be avoided."
Cong Xia was somewhat proud: "There is also a fatal attack. But it consumes relatively more energy. Every time you resist an attack, it will draw a little of your energy."
"But as long as you are here, our energy can always be in balance, right?"
Cong Xia said: "After I advance to the advanced level, I can indeed take care of more people, but it's hard to say what will happen in the combat state. You should try to avoid being attacked as much as possible."
"That's for sure." Shen Changze said, "Help us 'put on' now."
Cong Xia said: "I suggest directly implanting the skin." He drew out the saber, "Brother Shan, where do you want to put it?"
"Wherever you see is pleasing to the eye."
Cong Xia made a small cut on his forearm, stuffed the jade piece into the skin, and then wiped it lightly, leaving no trace of the cut.Cong Xia released Shan Ming's energy armor, then slashed Shan Ming again with a knife, this time without causing any damage to him, he said: "It has already worked."
Shan Ming said: "I'm not a mutant, what does my energy armor use to provide energy?"
"Your physical strength." Cong Xia said, "Your body also contains the energy of the five elements, and everything in the world is no exception, but the amount is relatively small, so your energy armor has a relatively heavy load on you."
Shan Ming raised his eyebrows: "Are you trying to say that my physical fitness is low?"
Cong Xia scratched his head: "That's not what it means. Your physical fitness must be higher than that of Zhuang Yao or Senior Colonel Tang, but they have energy for support, and you don't. It's pure physical energy consumption, so the load is heavier than theirs."
Shan Ming snorted: "My physical strength is much more durable than their energy."
Tang Tingzhi said: "Cong Xia, this is a fact. Our energy will be exhausted immediately, but Shan Ming can fight continuously for more than [-] hours. Without you to replenish energy, it is hard to say who will be exhausted first. "
Shan Ming had an expression of whether he heard it or not.
Cong Xia smiled and said, "This is a good thing. Brother Shan, don't worry, I can also replenish your energy."
Everyone implanted jade pieces one after another, and Cong Xia released their energy armor.
In the end, Cong Xia took out a kyanite from his pocket: "Second Uncle, I made another one in a hurry these days, it's for you."
Cong Zhenzhong said unexpectedly, "Me? I don't need it."
"Just in case, when we go to Qinghai this time, we don't know when we can come back. With it protecting you, I can feel at ease."
Cong Zhenzhong smiled and stretched out his arms: "Okay, thank you."
Cong Xia opened the armor for Cong Zhenzhong, and said solemnly: "Second Uncle, you must protect yourself."
Cong Zhenzhong patted him on the shoulder: "This sentence is also what I want to say to you."
After testing the energy armor, they could feel a layer of "skin" covering the surface of their bodies. This experience was amazing and filled them with a sense of security.
Cong Zhenzhong opened an iron cabinet, and inside were rows of energy fluids neatly stacked: "These energy fluids are all for you."
Al raised his eyebrows and said, "I've never seen so many energy liquids before."
"You will also see the toughest mission ever."
"Hurry up and let us see the weapons." Deng Xiao couldn't wait any longer.
"Okay, let's see yours first." Zhuang Yao opened the display cabinet, and a pure black Gatling modified machine gun appeared in front of everyone. The total length of the machine gun was about one meter. But it has become bigger, the diameter of the barrel has at least doubled, and it looks very domineering.
Deng Xiao rushed forward excitedly: "Is this infinite energy? It's so handsome!"
"Yes. There is no need for bullets, but new energy instead of bullets. This bullet slot is filled with new energy." Zhuang Yao pointed to a black steel pipe under the handle of the machine gun. Someone has a thick forearm. "After Cong Xia's Refitting can achieve infinite energy response, and the Cambrian energy can be converted into new energy through the conversion device built into the machine gun." Zhuang Yao opened a groove in his hand again, and there were three jade pieces the size of coins placed side by side.
"Can these pieces of jade supply the energy of the machine gun?"
Cong Xia said: "Yes, it is said to be infinite energy, but in fact it is only relatively speaking. If the Cambrian energy in the three jade talismans is exhausted, the gun will be out of bullets, but these three jade talismans are equivalent to [-] yuan. For traditional bullets, you can carry jade charms instead of carrying ammunition boxes of hundreds of kilograms. Of course, there are also some disadvantages, such as the energy conversion device is too bulky, so the barrel is reduced, and the power of the bullets is much smaller than that of traditional bullets , Once it enters the human body, it will dissolve itself, instead of stirring in the meat like traditional bullets, causing more damage.”
Deng Xiao said excitedly: "It's amazing, I finally don't have to carry such a heavy ammunition box, I'm not afraid of anything now."
Zhuang Yao said: "Replacing traditional ammunition with new energy is a revolutionary breakthrough in the history of weapons. These weapons are impossible to appear in the civilization era for 300 years. One of the benefits of the end of the world." After Zhuang Yao finished speaking, he opened the largest A metal display case filled with various weapons.
Shan Ming picked up a submachine gun: "Is this modified from MP5?" This is his favorite submachine gun.
Zhuang Yao nodded: "All are customized according to your usage habits." He picked up a modified FN57 pistol and handed it to Cong Xia, "This is yours."
Cong Xia stroked the black barrel: "My marksmanship has improved a lot now, and then I will hide on Abu and shoot coldly, hahahaha."
The people of the Dragon Blood Clan picked up their usual guns one after another, with excitement shining in their eyes.
"Chengtianbi's wind cannon has also been upgraded. The material has been modified by Cong Xia, and its heat resistance has been doubled. This time I made two more for you. You now have eight, which is enough for most situations."
Cheng Tianbi nodded, satisfied with the upgrade effect.
"Next is Tang Yanqiu's arrows. In addition to improving the performance and increasing production of the previous three types of arrows, a new type of arrow has been developed this time—energy arrows." Zhuang Yao combined four sample arrows with The new four-petal quiver was shown to everyone.
There was a slight smile on Tang Yanqiu's lips. The upgrade of the three arrows and the birth of the energy arrow were the joint efforts of him, Cong Xia, Zhuang Yao and several technicians. They were the new weapons that he was most looking forward to.
Liu Fengyu wondered: "Energy arrow? What's so special about it?"
"Strictly speaking, it is not exactly a cold weapon, but a miniature rocket. Its head and tail are fueled by new energy, and the tail will give the energy arrow a boost at the moment it is off the string, reducing gravity and wind resistance to the greatest extent, and shooting accurately. The distance has been extended to 300 meters, which is the farthest distance that bows and arrows can reach; and the head is a small bomb, which can cause devastating damage to the target once hit."
The design of this arrow is amazing.
Zhuang Yao said: "The next one is Liu Fengyu's." He looked at Liu Fengyu with a sly smile.
Liu Fengyu lost his temper with his weapon. He rolled his eyes and lit a cigarette: "Hurry up, I recognize everything I look like."
Zhuang Yao opened the cabinet with a smile, and a shocking liquid gun appeared in front of everyone.This upgraded version of the liquid gun has a barrel that is nearly ten centimeters longer. There are two sacs of digestive juice the size of a web hanging under the barrel. The whole gun looks more like...
"Damn it, why does this thing look like a dick." Shan Ming laughed wildly while pointing at the liquid gun.
Liu Fengyu's hand shook, and the smoke fell to the ground. Even though he was fully prepared, he was still frightened by the modified liquid gun, and he trembled with anger.
Cong Xia and the others suppressed their laughter.
Zhuang Yao explained complacently: "After the barrel is lengthened, the explosive power of shooting has been enhanced, so the shooting distance has also increased by 100 meters compared with before. In addition, the reason why the nozzle has been changed to this shape is that it can be twisted and opened now, and it can still carry out multiple shots. Angle shooting, and better angle adjustment.”
"I'll kill you, son of a bitch!" Liu Fengyu roared and rushed towards Zhuang Yao.
Tang Yanqiu grabbed Liu Fengyu, and Zhuang Yao walked slowly towards the door with a smile: "This is the end of the introduction of weapons, you should get used to it yourself." He opened the door and left, shaking Liu Fengyu's roar. in the back.
The day of departure finally came. There were six people including Cheng Tianbi, 12 people from the Dragon Blood Clan, and 16 people from Jiujiang County. When they arrived in Yunnan, 14 people from the Frost Society joined them. There were 48 people in total. The commander of the operation was Tang Tingzhi. , the deputy commander is Zhuang Yao.In addition to people, there are a number of war pets accompanying them.
Cong Zhenzhong personally sent them to the transport plane, and the two of them had already finished what they wanted to say, but they were speechless before leaving.Cong Xia didn't dare to look back, this was the most uncomfortable parting for him, because this trip was too dangerous, it might be a farewell, he only dared to look at his second uncle through the window after getting on the plane.
Cong Xia implanted energy armor on Abu on the plane, and its energy armor is the most energy-consuming because it is too big.When Cong Xia took out the knife and pointed at Abu while explaining, there was a trace of hesitation in Abu's eyes. He still couldn't understand the complicated language, but out of trust, he let Congxia cut his skin.After Cong Xia repaired its skin, it licked all the way to the place where the jade talisman was implanted, always wondering where the injured place went.
Two hours later, the plane arrived in Kunming, their original starting point.
Seeing the devastated city enlarged little by little under their feet, Cheng Tianbi, Cong Xia and Liu Fengyu were filled with emotion.Two years ago, they met here, risked their lives and embarked on a journey to Beijing, and walked for a full year. Two years later, they came back again, with great strength and a mission that must be completed, the same distance, It only took two hours.Thinking about the experience of fleeing and surviving in this city at the beginning, and looking at all they are carrying now, it is embarrassing.
The plane landed.Everyone walked out of the cabin and took a deep breath of the cold and fresh air.
Liu Fengyu sighed: "We are really back."
Cong Xia said: "When I left here, I always thought that I would die on the way, but I didn't expect to come back again in my lifetime."
Cheng Tianbi also said: "Time flies, do you want to go back to your house?"
Cong Xia smiled and said, "Okay, if that building is still there." That was the place where he and Cheng Tianbi first met.
Several military vehicles came from a distance and stopped in front of them. Several officers, Wu You and Chen Shao jumped down.
Wu You said: "Long time no see. I prepared a place for everyone to rest. After lunch, we will drive to find the house you mentioned, but you must be mentally prepared."
Zhuang Yao said: "Maybe the house is gone?"
"I don't know, because it can't be detected."
"why?"
"That area is occupied by the mantis tribe."
"Mantis family?"
"Yes." Wu You said with a light smile, "The giant mantises, which are about the same height as a human, are masters of stealth and assassination."
Cong Xia remembered that Cheng Tianbi once killed a praying mantis with one blow here. It was the first time Cheng Tianbi used the wind blade, and it was also the first time he absorbed energy. The praying mantises that ambush people and animals in the grass have grown so powerful.
After resting, they decided to venture into the mantis nest.There were not many people traveling together, only Zhuang Yao and Abu were absent from Cheng Tianbi's group, Shen Changze brought Ai Er, Yao Qianjiang brought Xiaozhou, and Wu You brought Chen Shao.
They are going this trip, hoping to avoid war as much as possible. The leader of the nest of praying mantis is a mantis alien. Sending a large army is likely to anger them. It would be best if they can negotiate peace like Devil Pine. After all, they just want a house.
The forest eagle flew for two hours and flew into a mountain. Black spots suddenly appeared in the distant sky. This area is densely forested. It is not surprising that there are birds, but it is rare to gather so many.When they flew closer, they suddenly realized that those black spots were not birds, but praying mantises with emerald green wings!
Cong Xia was surprised and said: "Oh my god, the Chinese sword mantis, these mantises can fly!"
Tang Yanqiu said: "The evolution is really fast. The wings of the praying mantis can only glide at low altitude."
"It's terrible, there are hundreds of them in the sky." Cong Xia looked at the crowd of praying mantises, and couldn't help swallowing.Seen from a distance, those praying mantises are as tall as a person, some are emerald green, some are dark green, with two sharp scythes on their forelimbs, their slender bodies look muscular and majestic.
Wu You said: "They found us."
Cheng Tianbi said: "I haven't reached the place yet, continue to fly forward."
Zhuang Yao's voice came from the wireless headset: "At two o'clock, there are still four kilometers left. I will remind you when we arrive." Zhuang Yao is using the navigation to locate them.
The forest eagles screamed, the animal instinct made them feel scared, the boat let out a hoarse roar, and then the bird took the lead and plunged into the group of praying mantises.
Several praying mantises flew towards them.Their streamlined bodies are wrapped in hard armor, and their triangular heads with round and bright compound eyes make them look like aliens. Their chewing mouthparts have strong bite force. The two huge sickle legs on the forefoot section are a full meter long, wide and sharp, and the wings on the back are vigorously flapping. Cong Xia remembered that the praying mantis the size of a basketball could cut off the neck of an adult with a single knife. The praying mantis, how powerful it must be.
Yao Qianjiang said to Xiao Zhou: "Concentrate on flying and don't worry about other things."
Xiao Zhou yelled: "Don't worry, Prince, I'm not afraid at all with you around."
Yao Qianjiang's eyes were staring straight ahead. As soon as a few big praying mantises approached, his body suddenly stopped, and his head shrank rapidly, like a deflated balloon, which was drained of water in an instant and fell straight from the sky.
The praying mantis made a strange call, and the distant praying mantis group rushed towards them wave after wave.
Xiaozhou led a few forest eagles to fly around, trying to avoid a large number of praying mantises, but there were still praying mantises flying towards them, but they never got close. They were either split into several pieces by the wall of the sky, or burned by Shen Changze Turn into ashes, or be frozen into ice by Wu You, and the corpse of the praying mantis will fall down like rain.
The four natural force evolutionists fought at the same time, and the destructive power of the gods blocking and killing the gods and Buddhas was shocking. Such strength made them full of confidence in the trip to Qinghai.
However, more and more praying mantises flew into the sky, no matter how powerful they were, they still felt a little trembling in front of this huge number.Moreover, they found that many praying mantises carried a companion half their size on their backs, which was a bit funny.
Cong Xia shouted: "It's a female praying mantis! Everyone be careful, these female praying mantises seem to be unable to fly, but female praying mantises are much stronger than male praying mantises."
As soon as the words fell, more than 20 male mantises flew towards Yao Qianjiang with the female mantis on their backs. When they were less than ten meters away from Yao Qianjiang, Yao Qianjiang activated his own ability, and those female mantises bounced off the back of the male mantis. The jumping ability is amazing, and he jumped directly above Yao Qianjiang's head.The shriveled corpses of the male praying mantises fell from the sky. Before Yao Qianjiang could react, more than 20 female praying mantises had already fallen from the sky, and their sickle legs were aimed at every part of his and Xiaozhou's body!
Yao Qianjiang was startled, a jet of water suddenly popped up from his body, and scattered the group of praying mantises like a high-pressure water gun. The female praying mantises had not yet evolved the ability to fly. After being dispersed, they glide with their wings, and soon Being carried by a group of new male praying mantises, they flew up again, staring at them eagerly.
Yao Qianjiang wiped the water from his face: "Damn it, these bugs are so smart."
Wu You smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you were almost cut into pieces, within ten centimeters."
Yao Qianjiang also smiled and said, "Ten centimeters? So it's still so far away."
Zhuang Yao's voice came from the earphone again: "300 meters in the direction of six o'clock...200 meters...it's just below your left, see that?"
Everyone looked down, and the first thing that caught their eyes was densely packed praying mantises. Apart from densely packed, there is no more suitable adjective. Thousands of praying mantises connected the land under their feet into an emerald green ocean. Mantises are tall and slender, with two majestic sickle legs, looking up at the intruders in the sky with their triangular heads up, as if they would be torn to pieces as soon as they dared to go down.
Cheng Tianbi frowned and said, "So many..."
Xiao Zhou yelled: "Damn it, there are so many! How can this go down!"
Zhuang Yao urged: "Did you see the house?"
Cong Xia hurriedly said: "I see, but there are more than 20 villas here, and they don't look completely damaged, but they must have become a nest of praying mantises."
"Can't tell which one belongs to Mu Fei?"
"These villas are all dilapidated, and the weeds are too tall, so we can't tell them apart unless we go down."
Zhuang Yao said: "Then go down."
Liu Fengyu gritted his teeth and said, "It's easy for you, kid. Do you know how many praying mantises there are down there? Even if we find that villa, it's not a stone, can we take it away in our pockets?"
"I didn't ask you to move away, you go down now to make sure which building belongs to Mu Fei, and we will discuss countermeasures when you come back. You don't need to land, just fly at low altitude."
Cheng Tianbi said: "Flying at low altitude is not good, these praying mantises are very good at jumping."
Zhuang Yao said firmly: "You can figure it out, I want the result."
The white falcon and the forest eagle carried the crowd flying round and round in the sky. Praying mantises kept attacking them. Seeing that there were more and more praying mantises flying into the sky, it was not an option to fight like this. There were so many praying mantises, even stretching Waiting in line with their necks for them to kill can also be exhausting.
"Go down." Shen Changze said.
"Well, let's go down, we'll leave immediately after we confirm which villa it is."
The white falcon and forest eagle flew down, and the praying mantises blasted their nests and waved their sickles to meet them.
Cheng Tianbi and Shen Changze jumped from Lin Diao's body. The strong wind and flames exploded on the ground, and the group of praying mantises under their feet suddenly fell into a sea of flames, and no mantises approached.
Others are finally able to fly at an altitude of 20 meters, although the scorching heat is better than being attacked by praying mantises.
They looked at one building after another, and finally, Cong Xia identified it through a small stone bridge: "That's the one!"
"sure?"
"determine."
Cheng Tianbi shouted: "Retreat!" After speaking, there was wind under his feet, and he soared into the air, flying onto Lin Diao, Shen Changze also flew up, and they began to escape with difficulty.
Due to attacks from all directions and too many of them, it became more and more difficult for them to cope. Many people were hit by the mantis, and the mantis's legs were basically fatal. Those with energy armor were fine, but they had no energy. Most of the armor was injured, especially Xiaozhou and Lindiao, who were attacked the most. When they rushed out of the encirclement, all their feathers were stained with blood.
Cong Xia kept treating the injured birds.Although he can supply infinite energy, it doesn't mean that they are invincible. Suppose they just fall down like this and compete with these tens of thousands of praying mantises. Even if they have four natural force evolutionists, there will be no bones left in the end. In the face of absolute numbers, no matter how powerful an individual's combat power is, it may not be able to turn the tide.
The mantis chased them for [-] kilometers, and finally gave up when they couldn't catch up. After throwing them off, everyone rolled their eyes from exhaustion.It had been a long time since they had experienced such a fierce battle. The last time they fled in such embarrassment was when they were dealing with bugs in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Compared to this group of praying mantises, the wild boars in the Devil's Pine Forest were nothing.
Deng Xiao lay on Lin Diao's body and gasped: "It's too fierce, this group of broken praying mantises are so fucking fierce, especially the mother ones."
Everyone was terrified: "Fortunately, the female praying mantis can't fly yet."
Cong Xia smiled wryly, "It won't be long before the female praying mantis evolves the ability to fly."
Al said: "If they live in the urban area, there should be no one in the city."
They flew back to the camp in one breath, and several birds lay down on the ground to rest.
Zhuang Yao smiled and said, "Mantis is hard to deal with, isn't it?" Looking at the panic of everyone, he knew that this trip was not easy.
Liu Fengyu rolled his eyes: "Tens of thousands of cockroaches are really hard to deal with. We can't take the house away. The house is in the deepest part of the cockroach nest."
Zhuang Yao nodded: "It's more troublesome than I thought. The Mantis has a strong sense of territory. When you go this time, the Mantis Queen didn't show up?"
"No, I heard it's a human alien?"
"Yes, but she has never been in contact with humans, and humans dare not contact her."
Deng Xiao gnawed on the chicken leg and said, "Wow, Empress Mantis, that sounds so cool, what's it like?"
Zhuang Yao said: "It is the largest praying mantis, three meters tall, and the only female mantis that can fly. No mutant animal or plant dares to provoke them. Not only are they numerous and capable of reproduction, but they are all born The killer who obeyed the Queen of the Mantis and was brave enough to die for the Queen's orders. The Devil Pine really gave us a problem."
Cong Xia said: "However, the house is still there, which is already good news."
"Yes, we have traveled thousands of miles to come here, and we are bound to get the house."
Cheng Tianbi pointed to the pre-apocalyptic satellite aerial photos from the database, Mu Fei's house was drawn in a circle, and he said: "After all, this is a house, even if it is dug, it will take several days. According to this In such a situation, large machines cannot enter at all, and it is absolutely impossible for us to poach a house from the thousands of armies. Our entry point is either peace talks or kidnapping the Mantis Queen."
Tang Tingzhi nodded: "As long as you see her, there should be a solution. After all, she is a human being and can communicate." "The whole valley is full of praying mantises, and it is impossible to tell where the queen is."
"Mantis nests are usually built on trees. Now they are too big, and they must be supported by big trees. Have you seen any particularly big trees?"
Cong Xia thought for a while: "Yes, in the depths of the valley, it seems that the closer to the tree, the denser the praying mantises are indeed."
Zhuang Yao said: "The mantis nest should be on those trees, there may be tens of thousands of them. I don't have a picture of the mantis nest here, but I can describe it to you. The mantis nest looks like a ball of yellow and white cotton , there are many holes, which are easy to recognize, and the nest of the Mantis Queen must be the largest one. The problem now is how to get in." He looked at everyone and showed a chilling smile, "You guys have to work hard this time. It's over."
"I just wanted to ask why it was me." Deng Xiao took a bite of the apple.
Zhuang Yao took it for granted, "Because you have a thick skin."
Deng Xiao wept bitterly: "Those mantises are so fierce, will they chop chickens?"
Cong Xia comforted: "Even if it is cut off, I will make it up for you."
"Can this be solved by making up for it?"
Liu Fengyu gloated and said with a gleeful smile: "Haven't you always been very courageous, boy, why are you afraid of bugs?"
"I'm not afraid, I'm just a little nervous."
"You still have the energy armor. I will always replenish your energy in the sky, and you are not alone in the mantis nest, you are just the first one in."
Deng Xiao sighed: "I want to eat more before I go." As he spoke, he ate and stuffed himself.
Zhuang Yao's plan is simple and crude, that is to find the nest of Queen Mantis,
"This temperature can really freeze people to death." Cong Xia looked at the recorder and sighed.
Cheng Tianbi said: "It's already minus 26 degrees. It's never been so cold. The northeast has broken through minus [-] degrees. It's not long before winter begins."
"Many people will not be able to survive the winter this year."
Zhuang Yao said: "The Antarctic ice sheet has expanded by more than 400 kilometers year-on-year, and the global climate has been affected. This winter will only get colder and colder. Beijing may reach minus [-] degrees. This will be the coldest winter in human history. "
Liu Fengyu said: "If it's so cold, will it be safer for us to go to Qinghai? Many animals should have hibernated."
Zhuang Yao shook his head: "Animals are better able to adapt to harsh environments than humans, and many animals have changed their habits. Those who should hibernate should not hibernate, and those who should be vegetarian should eat meat instead. Although it will be better than spring and summer, don't hug too much." Great hope, your problem of keeping warm is much more serious than the problem of encountering mutant animals."
Cong Xia smiled bitterly and said, "Anyway, it's absolutely right to prepare for the worst."
Cheng Tianbi asked, "Did Wu You call back?"
"Go back, he decided to go with us, and we will meet in Yunnan."
"This kind of weather is like a fish in water for him, he is ice himself."
"Shen Changze is not afraid, it's really enviable."
Cong Xia said: "Then the list is finalized, we, Dragon Blood Clan, Jiujiang County, Frost Society."
This lineup is absolutely unprecedented, which is enough to show the arduousness of this task.
At this time, Cong Zhenzhong walked into the meeting room: "I just received an important message from the Moscow government."
"what news?"
"They know that you are about to leave for Qinghai, and they implore you to save Dacqueline."
"Daiquilin is indeed in Qinghai." They had expected it.
Zhuang Yao sarcastically said, "I can't hide it at last."
Cong Zhenzhong put the telegram on the table: "They have been trying to rescue them, but they have not been successful."
Chengbi said in a deep voice: "Illegal entry, or entering Qinghai, risking being accused by us to make a request, must be desperate. Have you asked why they sent Dacqueline to Qinghai? Don't you know the danger? ?”
Cong Zhenzhong nodded and said, "Yes, they said that Dacqueline asked for it herself, because according to Dacquiline, she 'must go to Qinghai', and she 'heard the whispers of plants and the whispering of the wind'."
Liu Fengyu frowned and said, "What do you mean? Writing poetry?"
"That's what they said. Dacqueline insisted on going. I guess she can get a lot of information from plants. She must know something, so you must find her when you go to Qinghai."
Cheng Tianbi said in a deep voice: "If she is still alive."
Cong Xia patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, her ability is very special, she won't die easily."
Liu Fengyu spread his hands: "In this way, there will be five natural force evolutionists entering Qinghai, and there may be other natural force evolutionists there. If we can't get out, it will be really interesting."
Zhuang Yao said: "It's very possible, get ready."
Cong Zhenzhong looked at Cong Xia: "Are you all ready?"
Zhuang Yao said: "As of today, all the weapons, armors, and tools have been modified. I will show them this afternoon. They are all modified on the basis of the original weapons. It is easy to use. A week later, we will officially set off .”
"Okay, if you have any other requirements, please bring them all up, and we will try our best to meet them."
"This is a big operation, how many people are there?"
"The 48 people are all high-level mutants." Cong Zhenzhong patted Cong Xia on the shoulder, "Xiao Xia, you have worked hard these days."
Cong Xia said: "I also benefit from improving the team's combat effectiveness."
Deng Xiao yelled: "Let's eat, Mu Fei sent [-] kilograms of pine nuts a few days ago, and Master Wu said to bake pine nut pies today!"
Cong Zhenzhong said with a smile: "You guys go, a new batch of compressed fuel will be distributed throughout the city, and I have to go over and sign."
Cong Xia said: "How much can each person receive?"
"10 grams per person can last for two hours."
"It's only been two hours..."
"This is the limit of our current output. Now they don't know how to use it. Before the coldest time, we will try our best to increase the output. If we save a batch until the coldest time, it should save lives."
Zhuang Yao said indifferently: "It's not easy to hunt in cold weather, and it's easy to starve to death if you don't freeze to death."
Cong Zhenzhong didn't seem to want to continue this topic, he said: "Leave this to us to worry about, you go to dinner."
Compared with those ordinary people who are precarious, they have a warm environment and endless food, and they seem to be living in heaven, but they have to challenge hell again and again.
The freshly baked pine nut pie was brought up, and immediately filled the room with fragrance. The pine nuts were all the size of a peanut, and when bitten down, they were soft and crispy, with a fragrance on the lips and teeth, so delicious that Deng Xiao almost burst into tears.
Liu Fengyu said: "Mu Fei is really interesting, he always thinks about us when there are delicious food."
Cong Xia nodded: "Yeah, he is really a good man, without him, Devil Pine would have turned us all into hedgehogs."
Deng Xiao said with great expectation: "If we can come back from Qinghai alive, let's go and see him. He will definitely entertain us with a lot of delicious food."
Zhuang Yao gave him a blank look: "Devil Song said that the puppet jade must be handed over to us in person, so Cong Xia must go again, so you don't have to go."
"Why?"
"Because, it's not necessary."
Deng Xiao snorted: "I must go."
"You go on foot, I have no objection."
Deng Xiao squinted his eyes, grabbed Zhuang Yao and lifted it above his head, and ran away: "Oh, oh, fly high——"
Zhuang Yao shouted angrily: "Idiot, let me down!"
In the afternoon, they collectively came to the underground training ground in the sixth district, and all the weapons and armor were brought over.
The four members of the Dragon Blood Clan were already waiting.Zhuang Yao tailor-made weapons for them, and the other entourage of the Dragon Blood Clan, including those from Jiujiang County and Frost Society, will also get unlimited energy weapons.
Boxes of weapons and armor were lined up, and half of the huge underground training ground was occupied, which was spectacular.
Everyone is gearing up and looking forward to it.
Zhuang Yao said, "We should first look at weapons or armor?"
Cong Xia said: "Armors." He has worked hard for more than half a year for these armors. This is the most sophisticated and complicated thing he has made so far, and he can't wait to show his results.
Zhuang Yao took out a flat suitcase, which was only the size of a boarding suitcase, but it had a 64-digit password.
Shen Changze said unexpectedly: "Is the armor inside?"
Cong Xia laughed and said, "That's right."
"who?"
"For everyone, seven for us, four for you, one for Yao Qianjiang and one for Wu You."
Everyone looked at the small box suspiciously.
Zhuang Yao opened the box.
The box was covered with a layer of blue velvet, and on the velvet were thirteen pieces of jade the size of fingernails. There were four kinds of jade in total, two pieces of suet jade, three pieces of emerald, three pieces of red agate, and five pieces of blue jade. spar.
Shan Ming casually picked up a suet jade: "This is our armor? Is the color divided according to the energy attribute?"
Cong Xia said: "Yes, the armor in your hand is the medium of Cambrian energy. It belongs to the two of us. Emerald represents wood energy and belongs to Tianbi, Yanqiu and Abu. Red agate represents fire energy. Brother Liu, Major Shen and Al's, kyanite represents water energy, and belongs to others."
"How do they serve as armor?"
Cong Xia held a mutton jade in his hand, and he could clearly "see" the energy armor unfolding under his urging, instantly covering his whole body: "Brother Shan, shoot me."
Shan Ming took out his gun without hesitation and shot him in the arm.
The bullet came out, and there was a loud "bang", and Cong Xia was shocked to take three steps back. When he took a closer look, the bullet was suspended two centimeters in front of him, as if it was stuck by something invisible, and finally "popped" "It fell to the ground with a sound, and Cong Xia was unscathed.
Shan Ming's eyes lit up: "Damn, it's so powerful."
Cong Xia rubbed his arm: "The impact is quite strong." The energy armor blocked the bullet, but it couldn't block the impact of the bullet, and his arm was so painful from the shock.
Cheng Tianbi frowned and said, "You have to use this method to experiment?"
Cong Xia chuckled: "This is the most intuitive way, it's okay."
"This thing is so powerful, how do you 'wear' it on, just hold the stone in your hand?" Al picked up a red agate and fiddled with it.
"I can only help you to wear it." Cong Xia explained, "Let me explain the principle. I put energy into these jade stones, and when the jade stones come into contact with your body, I will release the energy armor for you, so that the armor and you The body is integrated into one. The armor uses your own energy as the energy source. Once your energy is too weak, the armor will not work. As long as you keep the energy in your body, the armor can be used forever. In addition, if your energy is extremely weak When the armor is attacked, it may be completely damaged."
Cong Zhenzhong praised: "It's really a good thing. With this, how many stray bullet attacks can be avoided."
Cong Xia was somewhat proud: "There is also a fatal attack. But it consumes relatively more energy. Every time you resist an attack, it will draw a little of your energy."
"But as long as you are here, our energy can always be in balance, right?"
Cong Xia said: "After I advance to the advanced level, I can indeed take care of more people, but it's hard to say what will happen in the combat state. You should try to avoid being attacked as much as possible."
"That's for sure." Shen Changze said, "Help us 'put on' now."
Cong Xia said: "I suggest directly implanting the skin." He drew out the saber, "Brother Shan, where do you want to put it?"
"Wherever you see is pleasing to the eye."
Cong Xia made a small cut on his forearm, stuffed the jade piece into the skin, and then wiped it lightly, leaving no trace of the cut.Cong Xia released Shan Ming's energy armor, then slashed Shan Ming again with a knife, this time without causing any damage to him, he said: "It has already worked."
Shan Ming said: "I'm not a mutant, what does my energy armor use to provide energy?"
"Your physical strength." Cong Xia said, "Your body also contains the energy of the five elements, and everything in the world is no exception, but the amount is relatively small, so your energy armor has a relatively heavy load on you."
Shan Ming raised his eyebrows: "Are you trying to say that my physical fitness is low?"
Cong Xia scratched his head: "That's not what it means. Your physical fitness must be higher than that of Zhuang Yao or Senior Colonel Tang, but they have energy for support, and you don't. It's pure physical energy consumption, so the load is heavier than theirs."
Shan Ming snorted: "My physical strength is much more durable than their energy."
Tang Tingzhi said: "Cong Xia, this is a fact. Our energy will be exhausted immediately, but Shan Ming can fight continuously for more than [-] hours. Without you to replenish energy, it is hard to say who will be exhausted first. "
Shan Ming had an expression of whether he heard it or not.
Cong Xia smiled and said, "This is a good thing. Brother Shan, don't worry, I can also replenish your energy."
Everyone implanted jade pieces one after another, and Cong Xia released their energy armor.
In the end, Cong Xia took out a kyanite from his pocket: "Second Uncle, I made another one in a hurry these days, it's for you."
Cong Zhenzhong said unexpectedly, "Me? I don't need it."
"Just in case, when we go to Qinghai this time, we don't know when we can come back. With it protecting you, I can feel at ease."
Cong Zhenzhong smiled and stretched out his arms: "Okay, thank you."
Cong Xia opened the armor for Cong Zhenzhong, and said solemnly: "Second Uncle, you must protect yourself."
Cong Zhenzhong patted him on the shoulder: "This sentence is also what I want to say to you."
After testing the energy armor, they could feel a layer of "skin" covering the surface of their bodies. This experience was amazing and filled them with a sense of security.
Cong Zhenzhong opened an iron cabinet, and inside were rows of energy fluids neatly stacked: "These energy fluids are all for you."
Al raised his eyebrows and said, "I've never seen so many energy liquids before."
"You will also see the toughest mission ever."
"Hurry up and let us see the weapons." Deng Xiao couldn't wait any longer.
"Okay, let's see yours first." Zhuang Yao opened the display cabinet, and a pure black Gatling modified machine gun appeared in front of everyone. The total length of the machine gun was about one meter. But it has become bigger, the diameter of the barrel has at least doubled, and it looks very domineering.
Deng Xiao rushed forward excitedly: "Is this infinite energy? It's so handsome!"
"Yes. There is no need for bullets, but new energy instead of bullets. This bullet slot is filled with new energy." Zhuang Yao pointed to a black steel pipe under the handle of the machine gun. Someone has a thick forearm. "After Cong Xia's Refitting can achieve infinite energy response, and the Cambrian energy can be converted into new energy through the conversion device built into the machine gun." Zhuang Yao opened a groove in his hand again, and there were three jade pieces the size of coins placed side by side.
"Can these pieces of jade supply the energy of the machine gun?"
Cong Xia said: "Yes, it is said to be infinite energy, but in fact it is only relatively speaking. If the Cambrian energy in the three jade talismans is exhausted, the gun will be out of bullets, but these three jade talismans are equivalent to [-] yuan. For traditional bullets, you can carry jade charms instead of carrying ammunition boxes of hundreds of kilograms. Of course, there are also some disadvantages, such as the energy conversion device is too bulky, so the barrel is reduced, and the power of the bullets is much smaller than that of traditional bullets , Once it enters the human body, it will dissolve itself, instead of stirring in the meat like traditional bullets, causing more damage.”
Deng Xiao said excitedly: "It's amazing, I finally don't have to carry such a heavy ammunition box, I'm not afraid of anything now."
Zhuang Yao said: "Replacing traditional ammunition with new energy is a revolutionary breakthrough in the history of weapons. These weapons are impossible to appear in the civilization era for 300 years. One of the benefits of the end of the world." After Zhuang Yao finished speaking, he opened the largest A metal display case filled with various weapons.
Shan Ming picked up a submachine gun: "Is this modified from MP5?" This is his favorite submachine gun.
Zhuang Yao nodded: "All are customized according to your usage habits." He picked up a modified FN57 pistol and handed it to Cong Xia, "This is yours."
Cong Xia stroked the black barrel: "My marksmanship has improved a lot now, and then I will hide on Abu and shoot coldly, hahahaha."
The people of the Dragon Blood Clan picked up their usual guns one after another, with excitement shining in their eyes.
"Chengtianbi's wind cannon has also been upgraded. The material has been modified by Cong Xia, and its heat resistance has been doubled. This time I made two more for you. You now have eight, which is enough for most situations."
Cheng Tianbi nodded, satisfied with the upgrade effect.
"Next is Tang Yanqiu's arrows. In addition to improving the performance and increasing production of the previous three types of arrows, a new type of arrow has been developed this time—energy arrows." Zhuang Yao combined four sample arrows with The new four-petal quiver was shown to everyone.
There was a slight smile on Tang Yanqiu's lips. The upgrade of the three arrows and the birth of the energy arrow were the joint efforts of him, Cong Xia, Zhuang Yao and several technicians. They were the new weapons that he was most looking forward to.
Liu Fengyu wondered: "Energy arrow? What's so special about it?"
"Strictly speaking, it is not exactly a cold weapon, but a miniature rocket. Its head and tail are fueled by new energy, and the tail will give the energy arrow a boost at the moment it is off the string, reducing gravity and wind resistance to the greatest extent, and shooting accurately. The distance has been extended to 300 meters, which is the farthest distance that bows and arrows can reach; and the head is a small bomb, which can cause devastating damage to the target once hit."
The design of this arrow is amazing.
Zhuang Yao said: "The next one is Liu Fengyu's." He looked at Liu Fengyu with a sly smile.
Liu Fengyu lost his temper with his weapon. He rolled his eyes and lit a cigarette: "Hurry up, I recognize everything I look like."
Zhuang Yao opened the cabinet with a smile, and a shocking liquid gun appeared in front of everyone.This upgraded version of the liquid gun has a barrel that is nearly ten centimeters longer. There are two sacs of digestive juice the size of a web hanging under the barrel. The whole gun looks more like...
"Damn it, why does this thing look like a dick." Shan Ming laughed wildly while pointing at the liquid gun.
Liu Fengyu's hand shook, and the smoke fell to the ground. Even though he was fully prepared, he was still frightened by the modified liquid gun, and he trembled with anger.
Cong Xia and the others suppressed their laughter.
Zhuang Yao explained complacently: "After the barrel is lengthened, the explosive power of shooting has been enhanced, so the shooting distance has also increased by 100 meters compared with before. In addition, the reason why the nozzle has been changed to this shape is that it can be twisted and opened now, and it can still carry out multiple shots. Angle shooting, and better angle adjustment.”
"I'll kill you, son of a bitch!" Liu Fengyu roared and rushed towards Zhuang Yao.
Tang Yanqiu grabbed Liu Fengyu, and Zhuang Yao walked slowly towards the door with a smile: "This is the end of the introduction of weapons, you should get used to it yourself." He opened the door and left, shaking Liu Fengyu's roar. in the back.
The day of departure finally came. There were six people including Cheng Tianbi, 12 people from the Dragon Blood Clan, and 16 people from Jiujiang County. When they arrived in Yunnan, 14 people from the Frost Society joined them. There were 48 people in total. The commander of the operation was Tang Tingzhi. , the deputy commander is Zhuang Yao.In addition to people, there are a number of war pets accompanying them.
Cong Zhenzhong personally sent them to the transport plane, and the two of them had already finished what they wanted to say, but they were speechless before leaving.Cong Xia didn't dare to look back, this was the most uncomfortable parting for him, because this trip was too dangerous, it might be a farewell, he only dared to look at his second uncle through the window after getting on the plane.
Cong Xia implanted energy armor on Abu on the plane, and its energy armor is the most energy-consuming because it is too big.When Cong Xia took out the knife and pointed at Abu while explaining, there was a trace of hesitation in Abu's eyes. He still couldn't understand the complicated language, but out of trust, he let Congxia cut his skin.After Cong Xia repaired its skin, it licked all the way to the place where the jade talisman was implanted, always wondering where the injured place went.
Two hours later, the plane arrived in Kunming, their original starting point.
Seeing the devastated city enlarged little by little under their feet, Cheng Tianbi, Cong Xia and Liu Fengyu were filled with emotion.Two years ago, they met here, risked their lives and embarked on a journey to Beijing, and walked for a full year. Two years later, they came back again, with great strength and a mission that must be completed, the same distance, It only took two hours.Thinking about the experience of fleeing and surviving in this city at the beginning, and looking at all they are carrying now, it is embarrassing.
The plane landed.Everyone walked out of the cabin and took a deep breath of the cold and fresh air.
Liu Fengyu sighed: "We are really back."
Cong Xia said: "When I left here, I always thought that I would die on the way, but I didn't expect to come back again in my lifetime."
Cheng Tianbi also said: "Time flies, do you want to go back to your house?"
Cong Xia smiled and said, "Okay, if that building is still there." That was the place where he and Cheng Tianbi first met.
Several military vehicles came from a distance and stopped in front of them. Several officers, Wu You and Chen Shao jumped down.
Wu You said: "Long time no see. I prepared a place for everyone to rest. After lunch, we will drive to find the house you mentioned, but you must be mentally prepared."
Zhuang Yao said: "Maybe the house is gone?"
"I don't know, because it can't be detected."
"why?"
"That area is occupied by the mantis tribe."
"Mantis family?"
"Yes." Wu You said with a light smile, "The giant mantises, which are about the same height as a human, are masters of stealth and assassination."
Cong Xia remembered that Cheng Tianbi once killed a praying mantis with one blow here. It was the first time Cheng Tianbi used the wind blade, and it was also the first time he absorbed energy. The praying mantises that ambush people and animals in the grass have grown so powerful.
After resting, they decided to venture into the mantis nest.There were not many people traveling together, only Zhuang Yao and Abu were absent from Cheng Tianbi's group, Shen Changze brought Ai Er, Yao Qianjiang brought Xiaozhou, and Wu You brought Chen Shao.
They are going this trip, hoping to avoid war as much as possible. The leader of the nest of praying mantis is a mantis alien. Sending a large army is likely to anger them. It would be best if they can negotiate peace like Devil Pine. After all, they just want a house.
The forest eagle flew for two hours and flew into a mountain. Black spots suddenly appeared in the distant sky. This area is densely forested. It is not surprising that there are birds, but it is rare to gather so many.When they flew closer, they suddenly realized that those black spots were not birds, but praying mantises with emerald green wings!
Cong Xia was surprised and said: "Oh my god, the Chinese sword mantis, these mantises can fly!"
Tang Yanqiu said: "The evolution is really fast. The wings of the praying mantis can only glide at low altitude."
"It's terrible, there are hundreds of them in the sky." Cong Xia looked at the crowd of praying mantises, and couldn't help swallowing.Seen from a distance, those praying mantises are as tall as a person, some are emerald green, some are dark green, with two sharp scythes on their forelimbs, their slender bodies look muscular and majestic.
Wu You said: "They found us."
Cheng Tianbi said: "I haven't reached the place yet, continue to fly forward."
Zhuang Yao's voice came from the wireless headset: "At two o'clock, there are still four kilometers left. I will remind you when we arrive." Zhuang Yao is using the navigation to locate them.
The forest eagles screamed, the animal instinct made them feel scared, the boat let out a hoarse roar, and then the bird took the lead and plunged into the group of praying mantises.
Several praying mantises flew towards them.Their streamlined bodies are wrapped in hard armor, and their triangular heads with round and bright compound eyes make them look like aliens. Their chewing mouthparts have strong bite force. The two huge sickle legs on the forefoot section are a full meter long, wide and sharp, and the wings on the back are vigorously flapping. Cong Xia remembered that the praying mantis the size of a basketball could cut off the neck of an adult with a single knife. The praying mantis, how powerful it must be.
Yao Qianjiang said to Xiao Zhou: "Concentrate on flying and don't worry about other things."
Xiao Zhou yelled: "Don't worry, Prince, I'm not afraid at all with you around."
Yao Qianjiang's eyes were staring straight ahead. As soon as a few big praying mantises approached, his body suddenly stopped, and his head shrank rapidly, like a deflated balloon, which was drained of water in an instant and fell straight from the sky.
The praying mantis made a strange call, and the distant praying mantis group rushed towards them wave after wave.
Xiaozhou led a few forest eagles to fly around, trying to avoid a large number of praying mantises, but there were still praying mantises flying towards them, but they never got close. They were either split into several pieces by the wall of the sky, or burned by Shen Changze Turn into ashes, or be frozen into ice by Wu You, and the corpse of the praying mantis will fall down like rain.
The four natural force evolutionists fought at the same time, and the destructive power of the gods blocking and killing the gods and Buddhas was shocking. Such strength made them full of confidence in the trip to Qinghai.
However, more and more praying mantises flew into the sky, no matter how powerful they were, they still felt a little trembling in front of this huge number.Moreover, they found that many praying mantises carried a companion half their size on their backs, which was a bit funny.
Cong Xia shouted: "It's a female praying mantis! Everyone be careful, these female praying mantises seem to be unable to fly, but female praying mantises are much stronger than male praying mantises."
As soon as the words fell, more than 20 male mantises flew towards Yao Qianjiang with the female mantis on their backs. When they were less than ten meters away from Yao Qianjiang, Yao Qianjiang activated his own ability, and those female mantises bounced off the back of the male mantis. The jumping ability is amazing, and he jumped directly above Yao Qianjiang's head.The shriveled corpses of the male praying mantises fell from the sky. Before Yao Qianjiang could react, more than 20 female praying mantises had already fallen from the sky, and their sickle legs were aimed at every part of his and Xiaozhou's body!
Yao Qianjiang was startled, a jet of water suddenly popped up from his body, and scattered the group of praying mantises like a high-pressure water gun. The female praying mantises had not yet evolved the ability to fly. After being dispersed, they glide with their wings, and soon Being carried by a group of new male praying mantises, they flew up again, staring at them eagerly.
Yao Qianjiang wiped the water from his face: "Damn it, these bugs are so smart."
Wu You smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you were almost cut into pieces, within ten centimeters."
Yao Qianjiang also smiled and said, "Ten centimeters? So it's still so far away."
Zhuang Yao's voice came from the earphone again: "300 meters in the direction of six o'clock...200 meters...it's just below your left, see that?"
Everyone looked down, and the first thing that caught their eyes was densely packed praying mantises. Apart from densely packed, there is no more suitable adjective. Thousands of praying mantises connected the land under their feet into an emerald green ocean. Mantises are tall and slender, with two majestic sickle legs, looking up at the intruders in the sky with their triangular heads up, as if they would be torn to pieces as soon as they dared to go down.
Cheng Tianbi frowned and said, "So many..."
Xiao Zhou yelled: "Damn it, there are so many! How can this go down!"
Zhuang Yao urged: "Did you see the house?"
Cong Xia hurriedly said: "I see, but there are more than 20 villas here, and they don't look completely damaged, but they must have become a nest of praying mantises."
"Can't tell which one belongs to Mu Fei?"
"These villas are all dilapidated, and the weeds are too tall, so we can't tell them apart unless we go down."
Zhuang Yao said: "Then go down."
Liu Fengyu gritted his teeth and said, "It's easy for you, kid. Do you know how many praying mantises there are down there? Even if we find that villa, it's not a stone, can we take it away in our pockets?"
"I didn't ask you to move away, you go down now to make sure which building belongs to Mu Fei, and we will discuss countermeasures when you come back. You don't need to land, just fly at low altitude."
Cheng Tianbi said: "Flying at low altitude is not good, these praying mantises are very good at jumping."
Zhuang Yao said firmly: "You can figure it out, I want the result."
The white falcon and the forest eagle carried the crowd flying round and round in the sky. Praying mantises kept attacking them. Seeing that there were more and more praying mantises flying into the sky, it was not an option to fight like this. There were so many praying mantises, even stretching Waiting in line with their necks for them to kill can also be exhausting.
"Go down." Shen Changze said.
"Well, let's go down, we'll leave immediately after we confirm which villa it is."
The white falcon and forest eagle flew down, and the praying mantises blasted their nests and waved their sickles to meet them.
Cheng Tianbi and Shen Changze jumped from Lin Diao's body. The strong wind and flames exploded on the ground, and the group of praying mantises under their feet suddenly fell into a sea of flames, and no mantises approached.
Others are finally able to fly at an altitude of 20 meters, although the scorching heat is better than being attacked by praying mantises.
They looked at one building after another, and finally, Cong Xia identified it through a small stone bridge: "That's the one!"
"sure?"
"determine."
Cheng Tianbi shouted: "Retreat!" After speaking, there was wind under his feet, and he soared into the air, flying onto Lin Diao, Shen Changze also flew up, and they began to escape with difficulty.
Due to attacks from all directions and too many of them, it became more and more difficult for them to cope. Many people were hit by the mantis, and the mantis's legs were basically fatal. Those with energy armor were fine, but they had no energy. Most of the armor was injured, especially Xiaozhou and Lindiao, who were attacked the most. When they rushed out of the encirclement, all their feathers were stained with blood.
Cong Xia kept treating the injured birds.Although he can supply infinite energy, it doesn't mean that they are invincible. Suppose they just fall down like this and compete with these tens of thousands of praying mantises. Even if they have four natural force evolutionists, there will be no bones left in the end. In the face of absolute numbers, no matter how powerful an individual's combat power is, it may not be able to turn the tide.
The mantis chased them for [-] kilometers, and finally gave up when they couldn't catch up. After throwing them off, everyone rolled their eyes from exhaustion.It had been a long time since they had experienced such a fierce battle. The last time they fled in such embarrassment was when they were dealing with bugs in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Compared to this group of praying mantises, the wild boars in the Devil's Pine Forest were nothing.
Deng Xiao lay on Lin Diao's body and gasped: "It's too fierce, this group of broken praying mantises are so fucking fierce, especially the mother ones."
Everyone was terrified: "Fortunately, the female praying mantis can't fly yet."
Cong Xia smiled wryly, "It won't be long before the female praying mantis evolves the ability to fly."
Al said: "If they live in the urban area, there should be no one in the city."
They flew back to the camp in one breath, and several birds lay down on the ground to rest.
Zhuang Yao smiled and said, "Mantis is hard to deal with, isn't it?" Looking at the panic of everyone, he knew that this trip was not easy.
Liu Fengyu rolled his eyes: "Tens of thousands of cockroaches are really hard to deal with. We can't take the house away. The house is in the deepest part of the cockroach nest."
Zhuang Yao nodded: "It's more troublesome than I thought. The Mantis has a strong sense of territory. When you go this time, the Mantis Queen didn't show up?"
"No, I heard it's a human alien?"
"Yes, but she has never been in contact with humans, and humans dare not contact her."
Deng Xiao gnawed on the chicken leg and said, "Wow, Empress Mantis, that sounds so cool, what's it like?"
Zhuang Yao said: "It is the largest praying mantis, three meters tall, and the only female mantis that can fly. No mutant animal or plant dares to provoke them. Not only are they numerous and capable of reproduction, but they are all born The killer who obeyed the Queen of the Mantis and was brave enough to die for the Queen's orders. The Devil Pine really gave us a problem."
Cong Xia said: "However, the house is still there, which is already good news."
"Yes, we have traveled thousands of miles to come here, and we are bound to get the house."
Cheng Tianbi pointed to the pre-apocalyptic satellite aerial photos from the database, Mu Fei's house was drawn in a circle, and he said: "After all, this is a house, even if it is dug, it will take several days. According to this In such a situation, large machines cannot enter at all, and it is absolutely impossible for us to poach a house from the thousands of armies. Our entry point is either peace talks or kidnapping the Mantis Queen."
Tang Tingzhi nodded: "As long as you see her, there should be a solution. After all, she is a human being and can communicate." "The whole valley is full of praying mantises, and it is impossible to tell where the queen is."
"Mantis nests are usually built on trees. Now they are too big, and they must be supported by big trees. Have you seen any particularly big trees?"
Cong Xia thought for a while: "Yes, in the depths of the valley, it seems that the closer to the tree, the denser the praying mantises are indeed."
Zhuang Yao said: "The mantis nest should be on those trees, there may be tens of thousands of them. I don't have a picture of the mantis nest here, but I can describe it to you. The mantis nest looks like a ball of yellow and white cotton , there are many holes, which are easy to recognize, and the nest of the Mantis Queen must be the largest one. The problem now is how to get in." He looked at everyone and showed a chilling smile, "You guys have to work hard this time. It's over."
"I just wanted to ask why it was me." Deng Xiao took a bite of the apple.
Zhuang Yao took it for granted, "Because you have a thick skin."
Deng Xiao wept bitterly: "Those mantises are so fierce, will they chop chickens?"
Cong Xia comforted: "Even if it is cut off, I will make it up for you."
"Can this be solved by making up for it?"
Liu Fengyu gloated and said with a gleeful smile: "Haven't you always been very courageous, boy, why are you afraid of bugs?"
"I'm not afraid, I'm just a little nervous."
"You still have the energy armor. I will always replenish your energy in the sky, and you are not alone in the mantis nest, you are just the first one in."
Deng Xiao sighed: "I want to eat more before I go." As he spoke, he ate and stuffed himself.
Zhuang Yao's plan is simple and crude, that is to find the nest of Queen Mantis,
