Next to 659 and 173, in an open space, the light shed by the red moon twisted and deformed above the earth. Between the interlacing of light and shadow, a strong and burly figure appeared out of thin air.
The color of this man's clothing is matte black. At a glance, it is impossible to tell the material of the clothing. He can only roughly judge that it is not a simple fabric.
Gray goggles and a black and white skull mask concealed the face of the visitor, but the broad shoulders and rough voice hinted at his gender.
"Introduce yourself, Sergeant Major of the 22nd Regiment of the Revenge Army - Hu Tengye, just call me Big Beard!"
As the bearded man introduced himself, the air surrounding the two Zhang Heng curled and twisted. Between the changes in light and shadow, a large number of soldiers wearing uniforms similar to Hu Te appeared out of thin air. They raised their weapons and aimed uniformly. the darkness ahead.
After that, the silent fire light began to beat and flash like a leaping elf.
The visitor took off his skull mask, revealing a thick black and white beard underneath, as well as a very warm smile.
"Master Chief...Hu Tengye..."
If there were words to describe the psychological activities of the two World Splitters, then the word dumbfounded would be the most appropriate word.
"This is...high concealment technology...my investigative equipment didn't even detect it..."
The first one to speak was 659. Compared to 173's gaffe, he could barely maintain his composure.
"Oh, the first-generation artificial intelligence, a product that was just eliminated last year, is really good when used on the battlefield, but the only problem is that it is too rigid, and it still has a lot of shortcomings in seeking optimal solutions."
The bearded man obviously noticed the monocle worn by 659 and said disapprovingly.
"This timeline has collapsed. You can only collect some fragments of information here, but you can't do anything else."
With a long sigh, Hu Te also moved his eyes away from Zhang 659's face and turned to his right arm soaked in blood.
"Oh, I said it in a patronizing way, but you're still injured, Xiao Gu!"
As Hu Teng shouted loudly, a soldier with obviously more equipment than the others quickly came forward from behind and squatted in front of 659.
Before 659 could say anything, the soldier, who Hu Teng also called Xiao Gu, unhooked the strange gun on his back and pointed it at 659's injured arm.
"The sharp sting shot by the shadow bug is not poisonous, which is a blessing among misfortunes. If it were poisonous, simple trauma treatment can only have the effect of suspending death..."
Xiao Gu explained in a low voice that he also wore goggles and a mask on his face, but the mask was pure black and did not have a skull pattern on it like Hu Tengye.
"This is……"
Looking at the strange gun in Xiao Gu's hand, 659 asked.
"The Z-drive treatment gun can use pseudo-life essence to treat simple trauma."
"The source of pseudo-life essence..."
659 seemed to be very interested when he heard the noun in Xiao Gu's mouth and repeated it several times.
"Bear with it."
Without cleaning the wound on Zhang Heng-659's arm, Xiao Gu just reminded him and pulled the trigger in his hand.
Light purple light quickly poured out from the storage tank at the rear end of the strange gun, arranged in a spiral shape in the barrel, and soon formed a slender rope.
With a soft sound, the lavender rope rushed out from the muzzle of the gun and disappeared into 659's injured broken arm.
Compared with the small movement in the muzzle, the expression on 659's face is extremely exciting.
The lavender rope enters the body
The moment he collapsed, 659 felt as if his right arm was being crushed inch by inch by a crusher, and then welded piece by piece with a welding gun that sprayed high-temperature flames. The pain was so painful that even the word "heartbreaking" could not be used to describe it. Pass.
"Unknown energy source is being injected, recorded."
As the treatment gun continued to inject pseudo-life essence into the body, the light green data stream also flashed across the monocle. However, 659 had no intention of paying attention to this at this time because of the severe pain in his right arm. It was enough to make him faint on the spot. If his willpower hadn't been stronger, he would have lost consciousness long ago.
"Okay, just give it a simple treatment. We can't stay here for a long time. There are too many shadow bugs and we can't resist it for long."
With that said, Hu Teng also picked up the firearm in his hand and aimed at the darkness in the distance.
"Xiao Gu, you take the two World Splitters and leave first. My brothers and I will drag you for a while..."
Hearing Hu Teng also beckoning Xiao Gu to go first, 173, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke.
"Where are we going to retreat to this wilderness? And the shadow bugs don't seem to be moving very slowly... Can we escape..."
In fact, at this time, the thing that 173 was most concerned about was not whether he could escape, but his own urgent mission.
You must know that when the system gave the time limit, it only gave one day in the Red Moon World. Beyond this time, the Insect King could not be killed, so the result waiting for him would still be humane destruction.
Therefore, even if you escape from the insect tide, it is nothing more than delaying the time of death. Once a day in the Red Moon World passes, 173 will still face the fate of destruction.
However, Xiao Gu couldn't guess what was going on in 173's mind, so he answered the other person's question head-on.
"Shadow bugs move extremely fast and have the ability to live in groups. It is really difficult for ordinary people to survive when faced with the pursuit of such creatures."
"But fortunately, you met us, the 22nd Corps of the Revenge Army. Although it is impossible to kill the shadow insect tide, it is still very simple to delay it for a while and allow you two to retreat safely."
While talking, Xiao Gu put away the strange gun in his hand and took out an exquisitely crafted whistle from his jacket pocket.
"Woo..."
The seemingly small whistle actually made a dull whistle sound when Xiao Gu blew it.
When the whistle sounded, 173 noticed that several soldiers who were raising their guns to shoot slightly turned their heads in the direction.
Although they both wore masks on their faces and could not see any change in their expressions, 173 could still feel the other's envy.
"The sound of this whistle is indeed strange, but it is probably just a communication item. Why do those soldiers turn their heads and look over, as if they are very envious..."
Although he felt strange in his heart, 173 did not ask. He just stood up quietly and reached out to help 659 who was sitting on the ground.
"Since these people have said so, let's see if we can escape first. If we can delay it for a while, try to delay it for a while. If things turn around later, maybe I can still complete this embarrassing emergency mission..."
The emergency tasks issued by the system are quite difficult and are simply impossible for 173 to complete. The situation seems to be exactly as 659 said. This system exists more to kill the host than to assist the host's growth.
But 173 knew in his heart that although his system looked very deceptive, it would not issue a fatal mission to him.
The whistle lasted only a short time, just one breath. After the whistle was blown, Xiao Gu put the whistle away again and turned to look behind him.
Similar to the front where the firelight danced, the rear of the soldiers was also a barren land, with the faint light of the red moon coming from time to time.
Time penetrates the clouds and sprinkles from the sky.
Except for the constant crackling sound in front of them, everything around them was so quiet. Even the gunfire of the soldiers was just a flash of light without any sound.
But 173 always felt that something was moving rapidly towards the location of the soldiers. When he wanted to determine the direction of the coming person, he could not point out the specific location.
This made 173 feel uneasy.
However, this state did not last long, and soon 173's chaotic thoughts were brought back to reality by Xiao Gu's voice.
"coming."
173 Hearing this, he quickly raised his eyes to look at Xiao Gu, but seeing that nothing had changed around him, he wanted to ask.
But before the world breaker could ask a question, everything that happened immediately revealed the answer.
The space that was as transparent as dark jade was distorted, and two huge animal-shaped figures were like submarines emerging from the bottom of the sea. They slowly shed their protective colors and appeared in front of everyone.
They were two lizards about the size of a car. Their uneven skin was covered with bumps the size of marbles. Each bump contained a variety of colors. Although they were mixed with each other, they were distinct.
The six limbs are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the body. The wide soles and thick long knuckles greatly reduce the pressure of the giant beast when stepping on the ground. Even if the body is heavy, it will not leave footprints on the ground.
Compared with the tails of ordinary lizards, which are thick at the front and thin at the end, the tails of these two suddenly appeared monitor lizards are more like a thick python. Except that the root of the tail is slightly thicker, the overall shape is very uniform. At the end of the tail, there is also It has a bowl-shaped mouth with a strange shape, and its function is not yet clear.
But these weird things pale in comparison to the lizard's head.
The two huge lizard creatures in front of them had a normal-sized human face where their heads should be.
Logically speaking, a lizard monster with a body as big as a car should have a lizard head that is proportional to its body. At worst, it should be a green-faced and fanged monster head, and it should not be a human head at all.
But these two lizard creatures have two human heads, and their faces are relatively delicate.
"this……"
After finally recovering from the severe pain in his right arm, 659 looked up and saw such a strange creature. He was immediately speechless and didn't know what to say.
"Oh, don't be afraid. These are Da Cai and Xiao Cai. They are hybrids formed after secondary virus infection. Their life energy level is gamma level."
"The two of them will lead you to retreat in a moment. Although the human-faced lizard cannot move as fast as the shadow bug, its camouflage ability is one of the best. In addition, we will attract the attention of the insect swarm from the front, so you will definitely be able to escape safely. .”
Xiao Gu said seriously, while moving forward, his right hand touched the head of one of the lighter-skinned human-faced lizards.
"This is Xiao Cai. She has a naughty personality and has not carried out a few missions since her life energy became stable. Although it is not reliable, there should be no problem with Da Cai."
After explaining this, Xiao Gu retracted his palm, put the mask around his neck back on, and returned to the team.
"But, they can become invisible, but the two of us cannot become invisible. Riding on the backs of two invisible lizards, apart from being a bit weird, it is still easy to be discovered..."
173 raised his left hand and expressed his doubts.
"You don't have to worry about these."
Xiao Gu's exposed eyes narrowed because of the smile on his face. He held the goggles on his head with both hands and put them on his face...
