"Great, the zerg is finally dead."
"Phew, everyone, please work harder. There are not many bloodthirsty mosquitoes left. Please protect yourself."
"Everyone, keep the injured as close as possible, three or two together, don't let the bugs take advantage of them."
…
The scene of the Zerg Bloodthirsty Mosquito being trampled to death by the Skeleton War Beast was seen by the warriors present. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as if a big stone had been lifted from their hearts.
Zerg is not something that high-level warriors can contend with alone, and this bloodthirsty mosquito is extremely fast. Every high-level warrior can feel the fatal threat from the bloodthirsty mosquito, as if The feeling that life is not under one's control, everyone is shrouded in invisible pressure, and one's strength cannot be fully exerted.
"Um?"
Zhang Changkong felt that these high-level warriors seemed to have taken medicine the moment the bugs were killed, as if the fatigue of the long battle disappeared at this moment.
"Is it an increase in morale? Do warriors talk about morale? I've never heard of it."
Zhang Changkong couldn't figure it out. His training as a strongman was only based on hearsay.
"Forget it, if they work harder, I won't have to sacrifice so much."
Zhang Changkong quickly called back the insects on the battlefield. How many more died in this moment? The sacrifice he made today was too great.
Thanks to the efforts of the warriors, many bloodthirsty insects that were well fed and drunk were no match at all, and they fell into the hands of the warriors one after another.
Zhang Changkong didn't try too hard. After taking back the withered golden-needle wasp, he only wanted to reduce the sacrifice of the insects, and occasionally beat soy sauce. Fortunately, many of the bloodthirsty insects that survived drank enough, and their attack power and movement speed dropped. Quite a bit, Zhang Changkong's insects didn't lose too much anymore.
"The bugs got away."
"Alive again."
"I didn't expect that Brother Heiyuan would not be able to leave the Sanhe Rainforest after all. Don't worry, as long as I can survive this insect wave, I will definitely take care of your family in the future to repay you for saving my life."
…
Zhang Changkong didn't express much about the life and death of the senior warriors. He looked at the swarm of bloodthirsty insects flying away in the distance, thoughtfully.
After the blood-thirsty insects drank enough, their desire to attack was reduced, and the effect of the insect-attracting smoke was also reduced. They actually ignored the effect of the insect-attracting smoke.
Or is it that insect-attracting smoke can only attract insects for a certain period of time, and the insects will become immune if they stay there for a long time?
"Forget it, these are not what I should care about." Zhang Changkong put aside his doubts, "What's strange to me is that a bloodthirsty worm actually appeared, and this worm can stay with the bloodthirsty mosquito swarm. The previous aliens The insects are either odd-shaped single figures, or they are all insects of the same species. Of course, these are the rumored insects that Zhang Changkong has heard about but has never seen."
"Zergs are mutated, there is no doubt about it. I have collected so many eggs, and there are quite a few of them."
"Originally, I thought that the zerg was determined innately from the egg, but what happened to this bloodthirsty mosquito zerg? There is competition among the bugs. Because the zerg is individually powerful, it basically does not live with ordinary bugs. This Could it be that the bloodthirsty mosquito is an acquired mutation?"
"Also, bloodthirsty mosquitoes are somewhat similar to the blood-sucking insects I have studied before. They seem to be an upgraded version of blood-sucking insects. What is the theory of evolution of insects? Ordinary insects can also continue to evolve and eventually become alien insects?"
"It seems that we need to collect some more common but numerous insect eggs in the future."
Zhang Changkong used to collect insect eggs carefully. Even though his insect swarm contained a lot of messy insects, each of those insects was considered very powerful in the Sanhe Rainforest, and they were all rare insects. Those with weak combat abilities were eliminated by Zhang Changkong. If today's windmill dragonflies were replaced by hard-shelled beetles or knife mantises, well, they should be able to block them. After all, there are always these powerful ones in the insect tide. If the insects appeared, if this could not be stopped, Rainstorm City would have been destroyed many times.
Zhang Changkong collected and counted the bugs. Of the more than 300 hard-shelled beetles, more than 70 were dead and 283 were left. Most of them died while covering the wasps. Of the more than 50 sword mantises, there were still 40 left. Nine, less than ten died. The colorful moths that had been serving as the last line of defense beside Zhang Changkong were not damaged. The more than a hundred miscellaneous flying insects did not suffer much damage, and only a dozen died. After all, although these were miscellaneous, But it was also carefully selected by Zhang Changkong, and its combat power was much stronger than ordinary insects.
"What a heavy loss." Zhang Changkong lamented his bad luck while rummaging through the death scene of the Zerg Bloodthirsty Mosquitoes to see if there was any residual value to the scattered Zerg trampled by the skeletal war beasts.
The insect wave in the Sanhe Rainforest broke out sooner or later, but it had to wait until he was guarding it. Isn't this a problem for him? All he wanted to do was stay at home and practice, and practice peacefully to the level of a mage. While practicing, he would occasionally To communicate with the bugs, he does not do it for fame and profit. What a simple wish, but why is the reality so difficult?
He had already been exiled from Wanzhu Peak to this borderland. His cultivation path was repeatedly blocked. He thought that his life had reached the bottom, but he didn't expect that there was an underground passage.
"I just want to farm well."
Zhang Changkong was almost depressed. He was only about thirteen years old and felt that he was under pressure that should not be endured at this age.
"Master Immortal, can you go back?"
A middle-aged man with two cross scars on his face said to Zhang Changkong.
Zhang Changkong took a look and said, oh, this is the captain of the Iron-Blooded Team. He seems to be called Ma or something, and he has only met him once.
"Go back? How can you go back?"
Zhang Changkong's face was expressionless.
Ma Boy said in surprise: "Isn't the matter here over? Don't worry about the corpses of these bugs. Countless bugs in the rainforest will be digested in a few days. Besides, many people are injured and need to go back for repairs."
Hearing this, Zhang Changkong pondered for a moment and said: "I'm not heartless. Let's do this. The injured ones, well, the slightly injured ones don't count. The seriously injured ones are allowed to go back first. But those of you who can still move, stay with me. You also know that in order to kill the zerg, most of the swarm under me died. I can't do it without replenishing it. Check every bug for me and find the eggs for me. If you find a thousand, you can go back, or all of them. Checked out.”
"Here, Master Immortal, there are seventy or eighty thousand, if not one hundred thousand, here. We have less than a hundred intact talents..."
The stable boy was a little embarrassed. Originally, their warriors were under orders from Stormy Rain City, and Zhang Changkong had no authority to order them to do things. However, they all saw the methods of this immortal master, and they would not be short in fighting off the insect tide together in the future. If they were offended, If nothing else, at least when two people are in danger, the immortal master's choice is very subtle.
"Okay, I've made up my mind, you go and convey the order."
Zhang Changkong was not in the mood to sympathize with them, he was upset right now.
The stable boy had no choice but to convey the order of the Immortal Master. He did not want to offend the only Immortal Master on the West Li River defense line. Many people had seen the appearance of the middle-aged warrior who died at the hands of the Zerg Bloodthirsty Mosquito. Some people have thoughts in their minds but just don’t say it.
The warriors were a little agitated when they heard the stable boy's order, but they were all warriors with good psychological quality and personal cultivation, and could listen to other people's opinions, so no one asked the sullen Master Immortal. Everyone thought they were reasonable suggestions, but everyone silently divided the work.
Zhang Changkong looked at the busy battlefield and said nothing. In fact, under normal circumstances, he looked down on these middle-aged second-rate bugs, but now that the strength of his insect swarm was damaged, it would be good to have some cannon fodder bugs to supplement them.
Besides, the eggs of these bugs are not easy to obtain. These bugs are not like the bugs in Zhang Changkong's previous life. There are hundreds or even thousands of eggs in a clutch. Seven or eight eggs in a clutch is considered a high yield. Those rare bugs Even more so.
Fortunately, the rainforest environment is more suitable for the survival of bugs, and the number is not large enough to gather them frequently. The ovulation period of these bugs can be said to be regardless of the season. It is not a problem to lay eggs three or two times a year, so there are endless bugs in the rainforest.
"Well, maybe we can consider breeding rare bugs in the future, and we can also consider hybridization of common bugs. But how do bugs hybridize? Forget it, let's do some research when we have time. Keeping collecting eggs from outside is not an option."
After all, the Zerg Bloodthirsty Mosquito died completely, leaving nothing behind for Zhang Changkong except rotten flesh and digestive juices.
