In the dark resting area, nearly a thousand meters square was a dense cluster of hundreds and thousands of sickle worms. The bugs occupied the rooftops of the shops and restaurants, or nearby dark corners. More poured out of the entrance of the cinema, surrounding it and glaring at Zero.
The bug's compound eyes glowed red in the darkness, like thousands of tiny red stars twinkling in the night sky. However, being stared at by thousands of big bugs was not a pleasant thing. Especially since these bugs would occasionally wave their four scythes, which would lightly scratch the ground and give off a sound that would make one's hair stand on end. It made one's hair stand on end.
"Hey, who told me, isn't this the hibernation period for bugs? Then what's with all these bugs now? A group party? " Feng shouted with a hint of madness in his voice. This couldn't be blamed on him. Anyone who saw so many bugs would be able to remain calm.
Of course, there were exceptions. For example, Eva, her breathing hadn't changed in the slightest, indicating that she didn't feel any fear or any other emotion when faced with such a large number of bugs.
"Right now it's the hibernation period for bugs, and when bugs have hibernation, there will be bugs like the guard team responsible for the safety of the nest." "However, it's clear that there are too many of them," said Eva.
"Don't you think this looks like a trap?" Her grip on the heavy sword was tighter than usual, to the point that her joints popped out.
Using the blood of the Ripper to attract the attention of the team, the team was led into the battlefield where the bugs had arranged for the formation, and then swarmed out to surround the team. A trap like this one had been used by Zero and the others many times before when they were luring and killing living corpses. However, when this method was taken out by the Sickle Worm, it was no longer possible to describe it with astonishment.
The scythe bugs attracted the team to the resting area, obviously not to observe the intruders, but to kill them all. In the encirclement, a red light flashed in the compound eyes of one of the scythes, and it pounced out of the swarm. Unexpectedly, the moment it took action, its head exploded into a paste, followed by the sound of a sniper rifle.
Buggy's body shook and he fell to the ground. Looking at the field again, he did not know when it was that Colt had appeared in his hands. A faint green smoke rose from the gun, but it exploded the bug's head with a single blow.
However, not only was the death of their companions unable to shock the other scythe bugs, it instead stirred up their vicious natures. The bugs let out a high-frequency sound wave that only they could hear. This was the sound of an attack. In the next second, the whole sea of insects churned as waves of insects rolled towards them!
The bug swarm moved, and four high-energy grenades were thrown out from the hands of a few people, flying past many parabolas and landing in the sea of bugs. In an instant, four orange-yellow fireballs exploded in the sea of bugs, the high temperature and explosive power instantly blowing up over a hundred of the bugs' bodies, at the same time inflicting heavy injuries on about two hundred of the bugs.
However, that was all the damage they could deal. By the time they threw out the grenade and the grenade exploded, the countless bugs had already shortened the distance between them by nearly five hundred meters!
"Quickly enter the dining hall, create obstacles, reduce the number of people who will be hit!" At the same time, he moved backwards, slamming against the door of the restaurant behind him. However, there was no ceasefire in Colt's hand. He constantly pulled back his fingers and the bullets, as though they had grown eyes, shot out at every bug that dared to jump out of the swarm.
After a short while, more than a dozen bugs had their heads blown off, but no one dared to come out from the crowd.
Eva and the others also moved towards the dining room, while the twenty or so zombie shooters were in charge of cutting off the rear. They desperately pulled the triggers of their machine guns, forming a dense network of fire. However, there were simply too many bugs. After dozens of the scythe bugs in front were beaten into rotten persimmons, the people behind took the opportunity to jump over the barrage of bullets and inundate the living corpses.
Within a second, the living corpses that had been submerged by the bugs were chopped into pieces by the bugs that had surrounded them.
As for the rest of the bugs, they charged towards the restaurant without a care for their own safety.
In the dining room, the Gemini and the butchers used their strange powers to throw large objects like the counter in the dining room in the direction of the front door, blocking the entrance to the dining room. The seven butchers used their tall bodies as pillars, pressing down heavily on the rear of the barrier. They let the insect swarm charge at them, but they were unable to break through the obstacles. Taking advantage of this training, the remaining live corpse archers stuffed their machine guns into the gaps between the obstacles and pulled the triggers. The dense barrage of bullets immediately turned the first wave of bugs outside into broken corpses.
The remaining three Ripper moved behind their own kind, waiting for an opportunity to rip apart and destroy the bugs that were exposed in their line of sight. Their mutated bone-piercing blades were sharper than the claws of the Scythe Bug. When they grabbed the shell of the Scythe Bug, it was as easy as butter to tear it open.
It was only when a green tornado drilled out from the bugs that the Ripper's claws landed on the green bug's body. However, the flames were unable to break through the green bug's body.
The Green Tornado proudly opened its mouth and screeched, not wanting an apparently lengthened barrel to be inserted into its mouth. Then, his mouth turned hot, and the Green Tornado's head exploded. The yellow bug juice splattered onto the Ripper's face, and the Ripper wiped it off before putting it into its mouth. It let out a cry of satisfaction and began to harvest the life of the bugs outside even more crazily.
The barrel of the rifle was pulled back and Zero's face turned grim. Green Tornado's carapace was abnormally tough. Even a large caliber handgun would not be able to pierce through the carapace. If there were more of these bugs, they would be in trouble. After all, even if it was zero, he didn't have the confidence to pierce through Green Tornado's mouth and destroy the worm's head from its softest place.
Just as he was thinking about this, the attack from outside suddenly drew back, followed by a series of buzzing sounds. It was close to a hundred green tornadoes flying towards the restaurant.
As soon as Zero saw this, his expression changed!
Outside Cossacks' base, the blizzard that had lasted more than 24 hours continued to blow. In just one day's time, the layer of snow on the ground had thickened by nearly half a meter. The snow carried intense radiation. If an ordinary person were to be exposed to such radiation, their genes would collapse and they would die within an hour.
However, even in this kind of lethal snow, a white military boot embroidered with gorgeous golden patterns would recklessly land in this type of snow. The owner of the military boot was also wearing a white trench coat. The windbreaker tightly wrapped around her curvy body, causing her to appear so valiant and valiant.
On the white trench coat, there was a military badge with the same gold decorations on the shoulders, the edge of the military badge was adorned with a ring of tassels. At this moment, these golden tassels were dancing in the wind like fairies.
Valkyrie was standing on a high slope, engulfed in radiation and snow. She held the Eternal Spear, Kungnier, in her hands, and her gaze passed through the blizzard and fell on the military base, which was only an outline.
Valkyrie had been standing in this blizzard for a day and a night!
There was a faint energy halo around her body. It was this layer of energy that separated her from the deadly radiation in the snow. As a high-level esper, the fact that Val was able to use his own special ability – Battle Qi was no longer a simple matter.
Warqi was a power exclusive to Valkyrie. It could be used to increase the base strength, agility, defense, and other capabilities of the base. At the same time, it would also give the opponent the ability to oppress the mind, causing the opponent who wasn't strong enough to do so to tremble in fear without having to fight Valkyrie.
The battle qi shrouded Valkyrie, just like her title, just like a goddess showing her high and mighty temperament. She examined the entire military base. From what she could tell, the creatures inside were more active than usual. The bugs, which should have been hibernating, were now too active. And at the bottom of the base, a huge energy was forming.
Valkyrie extended his mental tentacles. However, if one were to lightly touch this energy, it would be like being touched by a high-voltage electric current, causing his entire body to tremble violently.
She also knew that this energy carried a clear hostility. The hostility comes from its own energy, like a nuclear power plant, in the Varkali, which has a clear will in it, and which warns Dalkary. He warned this creature that stood on the same level as him not to enter his territory, otherwise, he would be forced to take the initiative to attack.
This was the reason why Valkyrie had yet to enter the base. If she were to rush into the base, the owner of the energy would launch an all-out attack. At that time, Zero who was carrying out a mission in the base would become very dangerous!
Valkyrie could only wait patiently, waiting for the will to slip into the base when it failed. She didn't know how much longer she would have to wait, but she didn't waver. At the same time, she decided that if there was an irreversible situation, even if she had to trigger the willpower attack, she would charge into the base.
Because zero represented the hope of the new humans!
However, at this moment, within his perception domain, there were three waves of indistinct energy auras. Judging from the intensity of their auras, Valkyrie immediately knew that they were at the eighth step. The strength of these three people should be around the sixth and seventh step. To Valkyrie, they were something he could safely ignore.
However, there was a hint of hostility in these three auras. When Valkyrie came into contact with these hostile forces, the image of zero naturally appeared in his mind. She knew that he was after Zero. Valkyrie snorted coldly, her hand holding onto her Eternal Spear. She leaned forward and her entire body emitted a faint battle qi flame. In the blink of an eye, she flew a hundred meters in the direction of the three auras.
No matter who the other party was, as long as it was something that was disadvantageous to him, he would eliminate them!
