Chapter 99

"It seems that we are lucky!"

Muzi smiled and took the initiative to pick up the crystal nucleus, and then when he was just starting.

"Wait a minute!"

The wind suddenly called him and stared at the direction of the crystal nucleus.

"What's the matter, brother Feng?"

Muzi stopped with a little doubt.

Before fengluo spoke, he saw the crystal nucleus that fell next to the commander of the mutant mouse. At this time, it shook twice automatically, and then suddenly floated up and quickly "fled" to one side along the corner of the wall.

"What's the matter? Can the crystal core still run?"

General Jiao's eyes are dull.

"There are ghosts in the game!"

Boss Meng is also a little confused.

"Bang!"

When everyone was still a little stunned or even surprised, the M110 in the hands of the wind had sent out a gunshot.

"Pa!"

The crystal nucleus dropped on the ground and made a brittle sound. At the same time, the system prompt was also brushed in everyone's vision.

[you (your team member) killed level 25 gathering beetle (ordinary), and you gained experience value of 16 (XX)...]

"I see!"

Now everyone knows what happened. Of course, it's not a ghost, but a monster.

In the sight of the strengthened wind fall, we have roughly seen the appearance of the monster who stole the crystal core.

This is a brown beetle with a massive black brown shell on its surface.

But to be exact, it is not very appropriate to say that they are beetles.

Because their bodies are not spherical like the previous self exploding beetles, but oval as a whole, with two claws like scorpions at the front and six segmented legs below.

The nucleus of the mutant mouse was clamped by a big pincer and ran fast on its six segmented legs.

But because of their brown bodies, it is difficult to be found in such a dark environment, and they move against the wall with unclear light, so everyone didn't see it clearly before.

Then after the wind shot and killed one, everyone realized that it was the monster "making trouble".

Just for the monster's "stealing crystal core", which is similar to the player's behavior of robbing equipment, we still feel a little contrary in our hearts.

If you are robbed of equipment by players, will there be such a wonderful thing as being robbed of booty by monsters?

"Ah, look, there's more over there!"

Because of the strange situation before, orange hid behind boss Meng in some fear. At this time, when his head looked away, he found more "stealing actions".

Not only the crystal nucleus, but also some larger crystal stones burst out by ordinary mice were secretly caught and ran by several Brown collection beetles.

"Stop them!"

President Jiao shouted, and the staff in his hand glowed. A ground spike more than 50 cm high drilled out of the ground and flew a brown beetle heavily.

However, even if it is pushed into the air, the big claws of brown beetles like scorpions here still cling to the crystal stone.

"Bang!"

Until now, the wind feels very hot and blows it in the air with an extremely accurate shot, so that the E-Class energy spar falls.

However, although they intercepted one after another, in the end, they were still escaped by a collecting beetle.

It climbed into the dark corner and disappeared directly behind a column the size of two people.

However, before that, the wind also got their information.

Common beetle: s3-024, hp-364. Estimated species: jc25%

Compared with the previous self exploding beetles, this "gathering beetle" has a fit of 35%, that is, there is a one-third chance of success, but the wind is not very interested in them.

Because listening to the name of the beetle, we know that it is likely to be auxiliary. He needs a pet that can help fight.

However, the appearance of this beetle further proves that there may be something he wants in this ruins.

"Eh, it's strange. How does the sculpture on this root look like a statue of God?"

Jiao Zong, who failed to chase the last beetle, held a magic wand and turned around the "pillar" twice. He was a little confused.

"Idol?"

The wind fell on his face and then walked quickly.

This is an irregular "pillar" for two people. It is about four meters high, and the top is connected with the ceiling of the parking lot.

The color of the column is gray and black. The surface is not flat, but concave and convex. The middle part looks more like a human shape. It is estimated that President Jiao thinks it is a "statue of God".

The pillar is covered with holes the size of a sea bowl, and the collecting beetle who stole the spar may have run into the hole and escaped.

"This shape..."

In the wind's mind, the building thought to be a human statue that I saw through the M110 sniper mirror before emerged. I found that the materials of the two are very similar, both of which are stone like but not very stone like.

However, the holes distributed above the two are the same, but the former is smaller, which is only suitable for self exploding beetles, while the holes in front of them are large enough for collecting beetles to enter and exit.

"I see!"

The wind fell and figured out why there were a large number of self exploding beetles behind them. These guys ran out of the column, or "gods"!

It's not accurate to say that it should have run out of the ground, because if you shine a strong flashlight on the "statue" in front of you, you can see that the hole actually leads to the ground.

Under the whole ruins, there may be passages excavated by insects or urban drainage systems borrowed directly.

In other words, these beetles are probably at the feet of players at this time.

"However, how do they avoid reconnaissance? Is it because the channel and the 'gods' themselves have the function of isolating reconnaissance? Or..."

The wind thought of another possibility, but it could not be proved for the time being.

And at this time, a prompt for someone to apply for a call came from his communicator.

"Lao Feng, where are you and how's the situation?"

Mu Wu's voice came through the communicator.

"We hid in the underground parking lot of a building, escaped the pursuit of those self exploding beetles, and didn't lose staff for the time being. How about your loss?"

Fengluo expected that the damage caused by this sudden outbreak of self exploding beetle attack would not be small.

Although they sent a warning message to the Muwu and the commander-in-chief vehicle at the moment they found the situation, the time was not enough for everyone to retreat successfully.

"The loss is huge. In this wave of beetle outbreak, three teams were killed directly, and even one mecha was surrounded by hundreds of beetles and destroyed, and the total number was reduced by 93. If not for some self exploding beetles, they shifted their targets and went to the array of Longyin mercenary regiment and veteran tribe, the loss is estimated to be more serious!"

Mu Wu's voice was a little heavy. After all, he encountered this situation just at the beginning of the task. It was really a little unexpected.

"The situation is somewhat unexpected. It's only in the level 20 area, and there may be similar problems in the level 30 area and level 40 area. So the boss has decided to hire 500 players from the veteran tribe and the Longyin mercenary regiment respectively, otherwise it's impossible to complete the task!" Muwu road.

"Well, I've invested so much money anyway. It's nothing to spend any more!"

Fengluo doesn't care about it. Anyway, it's not his own money.

The attrition of nearly 100 people does have a great impact on the plan, because the death penalty in war discipline is relatively serious. In addition to losing level 1 experience, it still needs to wait 12 hours to log in to the game again.

In other words, even if these people rush back to the war, they will have to wait until tomorrow.

Therefore, it is necessary to increase the number of hired players.

"In addition, because there was no large-scale attack by self exploding beetles at the North District headquarters, there were a relatively large number of people left. Therefore, it was decided to send five teams to help us catch up with the progress first, so as to avoid the monster gathering in a certain area due to the too fast progress of one party."

In the communicator, Mu Wu said again.

Fifty people, the wind fell a little less, but what the "big young master" dark night stars thought as the commander was not up to him to decide, so he didn't say anything about it.

"By the way, after our research, we found that these beetles may..."

Feng Luo told Mu Wu what he had just thought about the "Idol".

"Do you mean that these beetles are drilled out of the holes of the 'gods', and their channels or gathering places are underground?"

At the other end of the communicator, Mu Wu pondered.

"To be exact, I don't think it's actually a statue. It's the accumulation of soil dug by beetles when digging tunnels. You know, many insects can use special secretion to make their nests as hard as concrete."

Said the wind.

"This kind of pattern like a statue of God on it is a little unreasonable. It seems that there is a 'temple' in the center." Mu Wu said.

"Each species has its own architectural style. Maybe these beetles like that. Or, in fact, the game company plays tricks to increase the atmosphere!" The wind falls down the road.

"It's possible. That's it. I'll ask someone to explore the" gods "first."
