"One thousand two hundred hours, one day and night cycle in the Red Moon World, is equivalent to fifty days on the normal timeline. It seems that this urgent task can still be completed."
173 said excitedly, completely ignoring the puzzled looks of Xu Xiaoxiao and Ye Shuihan beside him.
"Yes, your system's time definition for emergency tasks must be a day and night in the Red Moon World. In this way, there will be a lot more time. It is not impossible to kill the Insect King..."
659 nodded and said in agreement.
"Kill the Insect King? What did you encounter before?"
The two World Breakers were exchanging words with each other. Xu Xiaoxiao and Ye Shuihan couldn't understand them at all, but when 659 mentioned words like killing the Insect King, the woman in armor shouted and interrupted.
"We encountered a wave of shadow bugs before. Thanks to your people, otherwise 173 and I might have to explain where we were."
Looking back from 173's face, 659 spoke.
"Shadow Bug Tide?!"
What 659 didn't expect was that Xu Xiaoxiao's face changed drastically after hearing the words "Shadow Insect Tide". All his emotions disappeared, leaving only deep fear.
"You actually encountered shadow bugs, and it was a large-scale insect swarm?!"
Ye Shuihan was no longer calm at this time. He couldn't help but take a step forward and stared into 659's eyes.
"Yes……"
Although he knew that the situation was not good, 659 did not try to deceive the two of them, and told the story exactly as it happened.
"No wonder only Da Cai and Xiao Cai are back, the 22nd Corps...is gone..."
With a plop, the thin Ye Shuihan sat down on the ground, his face full of decadence and despair.
"No! Big Beard is already a gold first-class sergeant, and Gu Changfeng, who is also a gold second-class mid-level sergeant, will not die like this, no way..."
Xu Xiaoxiao shook his head mechanically, his almond-shaped eyes full of dullness that he didn't want to believe.
Looking at the two grieving people in front of him, 659 frowned deeply. He had always had a question in his mind, but he wasn't sure if now was a good time to ask.
After much thought, 659 decided that it would be better to ask directly.
After all, the purpose of his coming here is to collect as much information as possible in order to prepare for what's next.
"If I guessed correctly, all the soldiers of the 22nd Corps should be wearing combat uniforms with high-invisibility technology, right? I won't ask about the technological source of these clothes. What makes me feel strange is that this kind of high-invisibility Hidden technology should have strong concealment properties, so why did the soldiers of the 22nd Corps not choose to evacuate with us, but instead drew their swords and charged to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the shadow insect tide?"
At first glance, 659’s inquiry at this moment is indeed a bit excessive. The 22nd Corps held back the wave of shadow insects at the cost of their lives, allowing the two World Breakers to escape, but the survivors questioned the 22nd afterward. The Corps’ rationale for making this decision.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like a white-eyed wolf.
But 659 can't control so much. At this moment, he just wants to know the truth behind the matter, because anyone who has seen those soldiers drawing swords to face the enemy cannot easily erase the memory from their minds.
"If what they encountered was something else, that would be fine, but what they encountered were shadow bugs, and shadow bugs that had already formed a swarm. High-invisibility technology couldn't help them..."
Ye Shuihan, who was sitting on the ground, muttered, reached into his pocket with his right hand, and once again took out the cigarette box that had been crushed by the butt.
"High-invisibility technology can fool the naked eye, thermal imagers, and even radar...but it cannot fool mental detection."
"The Shadow Insect swarm that has formed a large scale must have the Insect King among them. As the king branch of the Shadow Insect, the most outstanding feature of the Shadow Insect King is that it has the ability to detect spirits."
"That's why all the soldiers of the 22nd Corps did not retreat with you, because there are only two human-faced lizards that can shield the mental power of the riders!"
After the scratching sound, an orange-red flame appeared on the matchstick, but whether it was because Ye Shuihan's hands were shaking or because the burning of red phosphorus was unstable, the flame jumped unsteadily for a while and could not light the matchstick. Flat cigarette.
Shadowworm, as an omega-level mutant creature, is far more terrifying than 659 and 173 imagined.
If the 22nd Corps did not launch a frontal charge against the insect tide at that time, but chose to retreat with the two World Splitters, then the final result is likely to be that they were locked by the shadow insect king's mental power, and eventually led the insect tide to Entrance to NB underground city.
Once the insect tide enters the city, the consequences will be disastrous.
"The Shadow Insect King has the ability of mental detection... so the two of us were able to escape smoothly because Hu Teng and the others held back the insect tide with their lives..."
173 murmured in his mouth. Since he left first at that time, he did not notice the 22nd Corps charging towards the insect tide.
He always thought that those soldiers were just helping them delay for a while, and would eventually rejoin them at the finish line.
But I didn't expect that the other party would use the lives of the entire corps to hold back the insect tide.
"It's good to die, it's good to die..."
At this sad moment, Ye Shuihan, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly burst into laughter.
And the laughter grew louder and more unrestrained.
If it is said that it is emotional confusion caused by excessive sadness, it can still be understood and accepted by ordinary people.
But the Ye Shuihan in front of him seemed to have changed. He was no longer as elegant as before, and even the aura of meanness was gone. His whole person became very scary. Just looking at the expression on his face, you can tell that It gives people a sense of bloodthirsty and brutal horror.
Looking at Ye Shuihan, who was gradually losing control of his emotions, 659 frowned and cast a questioning look at Xu Xiaoxiao who was standing aside.
Xu Xiaoxiao had a panic look on his face, and he quickly stepped forward and pulled Ye Shuihan up from the ground.
Although the movements were very direct, 659 could see that the woman was still controlling her power very carefully.
Like a strong man who can carry a cauldron, he carefully carves fine handicrafts.
He can't control his violent power very well, but he can't hide his love for the person in front of him.
"Shuihan, how are you? Cheer up!"
The woman's arms were like huge iron pliers, holding Ye Shuihan's body firmly in place, but despite this, Ye Shuihan still laughed crazily, twisted his body, and muttered indistinctly. .
"It's good to die, it's better to die all together, kill! Kill them all! Kill all you monkeys! Hahahaha!!"
"What's up with him?"
Seeing Ye Shuihan's frustrated look, 659's brows knitted together again not long after he let go.
Instead of answering 659's question, Xu Xiaoxiao turned his head to another location and shouted at the people in the distance.
"Go call Uncle Bai, go quickly!"
As soon as these words came out, the two World Breakers noticed that there were still people in white isolation uniforms scattered around the hall, a hundred steps away from them.
After these people heard Xu Xiaoxiao's call, one person immediately ran out and rushed into a building that looked like a phone booth nearby.
The rest of the people put down what they were holding and moved towards the center of the hall.
"Sedative, give me a sedative first!"
Walking at the front was a petite medical staff. Although the visitor's face was covered by a thick isolation mask, one could still tell from the voice that she was a young girl.
After Xu Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement, the medical staff skillfully operated the transparent needle filled with medicine in his hand, preparing to plunge it into Ye Shuihan's body.
But Ye Shuihan, who looked thin, didn't know where he got the strength. Suddenly his eyes widened and he began to twist violently.
Even Xu Xiaoxiao, who restricted his movements, did not expect that Ye Shuihan would burst out with such power.
Without warning, the syringe in the hands of the medical staff was knocked off and fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
"ah!"
The petite girl was pushed by this strange force and staggered, almost falling to the ground.
Fortunately, the companion behind her reached out in time to support the girl, which prevented her from falling to the ground.
Compared to the slightly chaotic crowd, 659 seemed much calmer. He stretched out his hand and tapped the monocle a few times, and a light green data stream quickly crossed the surface of the lens.
"There is no abnormality in the preliminary detection target. It is recommended to conduct detailed analysis."
"Nothing abnormal? Are you just pretending?"
659 raised his eyebrows, glanced at Ye Shuihan, who was almost crazy, and silently took a step back, disappearing into the crowd.
Compared to 659's caution, 173 was more concerned about Ye Shuihan's situation and subconsciously leaned towards Xu Xiaoxiao, seemingly wanting to help.
But before 173 could ask, Xu Xiaoxiao suddenly turned to look at the people behind him and shouted at the same time.
"Everyone, step back and stay at least fifty steps away from me!"
"What? Back away?"
173 After hearing the content of Xu Xiaoxiao's shouting, the hand that had been stretched out in the air paused again.
The gathered crowd seemed to be experiencing this kind of scene, and they quickly and orderly retreated. Even 659, who was hidden in the crowd, obeyed Xu Xiaoxiao's order after being slightly stunned. For a while, only 173 and the one who almost fell down were left. The little girl is still staying next to Xu Xiaoxiao.
"hurry up!"
Seeing that there were still people around him who had not evacuated, Xu Xiaoxiao was obviously a little anxious and hurriedly urged the two of them to leave.
"Do you really don't need help?"
173 cast an inquiring look at Xu Xiaoxiao, but was quickly dismissed with a firm look from the woman.
"No! Get away quickly, it's dangerous here!"
The little girl who almost fell stood there blankly, looking at the debris on the ground at a loss.
At first glance, it looks like a newcomer who has not experienced many emergencies. When what happens in reality is different from what he expected, he will stay in place and not know what to do.
"Take her away quickly, fuck! It's too late, Ye Shuihan, give me some credit!"
Xu Xiaoxiao cursed angrily, looped his right arm and held Ye Shuihan tightly in his arms, while pushing the other hand on 173's chest, trying to force the dazed World Breaker away.
Before he could carefully feel the huge force coming from his chest, 173 suddenly discovered that the exposed arms of the woman in front of him seemed to have undergone some changes. The originally tight and elastic skin became pale and rough. Just looking at it gave people an abnormal feeling. Thick feel.
"Is this...the ability to be released to the outside world?"
Before the thought flashed in 173's mind, a huge shock wave hit him head and face, pushing him ten steps away...
