Chapter 638 Goodbye, the same kind I have never met
The center of the nuclear crater.
The big mouth that was originally vomiting has retracted underground, leaving only a bottomless pit and the two people standing next to the pit.
The two of you looked at me, and I looked at you. Finally, Lao Bai couldn't help it, coughed lightly and said.
"What's next?" Fang Chang looked at him in confusion.
"Next?"
"Uh, I mean...what's the next step?"
Looking at Fang Chang with a "What are you talking about" face, Lao Bai scratched his helmet and changed his question.
Although he is the captain, he really has little experience in dealing with situations like this that he has never seen in reality. At this time, he needs to use Brother Fang's imagination.
But looking at Fang Chang's indifferent expression, he knew that his question was probably in vain.
"There is no next step plan... rather, this is an unplanned development."
Fang Chang sighed, walked to the edge of the huge pit, and looked down.
That deep darkness seemed to be able to swallow everything.
In fact, it had already done so, almost wiping out their team with just one bite.
Honestly.
If he wasn't a player, he really wouldn't dare to go to this place.
It's even less possible for him to come up with that ridiculous plan.
But precisely because he is a player, not only does he dare to take on this narrow escape mission, but he can also throw his teammates into this big pit without any scruples, and their teammates will not think there is any problem.
A person with a good brain will inevitably think too much. Sometimes he will involuntarily have an illusion that he will stand here, think like this, and make such a choice. In fact, it was decided many years ago.
But there seems to be nothing wrong with this.
After all, this is a game.
The players themselves are the marbles rolling in the "table pinball", and the smart game designers will use clever design to make the players not feel this as much as possible.
For example, he is very curious now about what Luo Yu will find from below.
I hope it won't end up with nothing and become a pile of answers. That would be embarrassing.
"So... let's wait here?" Lao Bai, who was not far behind him, asked.
Fang Chang shrugged.
"This is all we can do for now."
"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to handle."
"Difficult to do?"
Hearing that subtle tone, Fang Chang, who was standing next to the huge pit, was slightly startled. He subconsciously turned around and was dumbfounded.
I saw densely packed fruit bodies surrounding the nuclear crater in a dark circle.
Among them are original fruiting bodies such as tyrants and crawlers, power armor corroded by slime mold, armored vehicles and trucks, and a lot of other strange things.
In terms of garbage recycling alone, I'm afraid there's no one in this wasteland.
It is the opponent of slime mold.
They don't just piece together garbage and use it as armor, but they evolve a series of incredible units based on their own understanding and using their huge gene pool and self-evolution capabilities.
For example, those minibuses are the most typical representatives. They can launch self-destructing flying insects like rocket cars.
"Now it's all over." He took off the Daybreak Mechanical Compound Bow hanging on his back, and Fang Chang squeezed these words out of his throat with his scalp numb.
"Ah," Lao Bai also nodded and said helplessly, "Let's chat on the forum later."
Two people against 10,000...or even more than 10,000. There is no chance of survival even 1 in 10,000.
Both of them were ready to fight.
However, something unexpected happened. The fruiting bodies just surrounded them and did not swamp them and drown them.
Just when Lao Bai and Fang Chang were wondering what these guys were waiting for, the ground beneath their feet suddenly trembled.
Without waiting for the two of them to react,
Suddenly, light red vines soared into the sky from the huge pit behind the two people, entwined with each other and spread upward for more than ten meters, like a tall tower, and finally weaved a rope at the top of the tower.
A chair with a unique shape.
That chair was like a throne, and Luo Yu, who had been thrown into the pit before, was now sitting on it coquettishly.
Gazing at the light red fungus tower, the fruiting bodies surrounding the nuclear bomb crater suddenly became commotion, making a hoarse chirping sound, and moved their steps as if they wanted to step forward, but did not dare.
They are confused, scared, unable to understand the situation in front of them, and confused as to what to do.
Staring at the tide of bacteria, Luo Yu felt inexplicably without any fear in his heart.
He can see every sub-entity here, and he can clearly perceive what they are thinking.
A vast sea of thoughts came to him.
Feeling the desire flowing in the spore cloud, he released his own ripples.
For him who has mastered the entire nest, this is as simple as breathing.
"No need to panic."
"It has ended-"
"This has been a war for two centuries."
It seemed as if he could feel the ripples flowing in the spore cloud, and his turbulent emotions were instantly soothed.
The fruiting bodies pacing back and forth on the edge of the nuclear crater finally stopped pacing, stretched their limbs upwards, and cheered in their own way.
That familiar ripple is from my mother!
The original anxiety and fear melted away at this moment, and were swept away by the spreading spore cloud.
After confirming his aura, it took them less than a second to accept the new king.
Seeing the obedient reactions of those fruiting bodies with satisfaction, Luo Yu's lips couldn't help but curl up into a smile.
Is this what power feels like? It’s so pleasurable!
By the way, why don’t you shout and kneel down?
Just when Luo Yu was thinking about how to show off, Fang Chang and Lao Bai, who were standing under the intertwined light red vines, both raised their heads and stared at this guy in shock.
..what's the situation?"
"Brother...are you still human?"
Looking at Fang Chang and Lao Bai who looked confused, Luo Yu also felt a little embarrassed and coughed lightly.
"Of course, as for what happened, it's a long story, and we have to start with a planet called Gaia... This can't be explained clearly in a short while, so we'll have to wait a while.
Let’s discuss it in detail on the forum.”
Fang Chang nodded confusedly, thinking that this was also the case.
It's better to post a post than to enjoy it alone rather than to enjoy it together, lest he hears it all and the other brothers are still in the dark.
But he didn't understand why it was related to a planet called Gaia?
besides-
"Okay... By the way, where is Ye Shi?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Yu was about to speak when a cursing voice came from underneath him.
"Here I am...hell, this guy won't even get me a chair."
Under the light red fungus tower, Ye Shi was holding one of the tentacles, struggling to climb up.
Someone's penis has been installed, and he is still hanging on the tree.
Hearing his complaint, Luo Yu's face turned red and he felt embarrassed, so he quickly coughed and defended himself.
"Holy shit, wasn't I in a hurry to save people? If I had been a step later-"
Ye Shi rolled his eyes tiredly and interrupted his quibble.
"Hurry up! Give me a hand!"
Luo Yu stopped delaying and said immediately, "Xiao Yu."
"Ugh!"
With a light and cheerful answer, a light red tentacle separated from the mushroom tower, circled around Ye Shi's ankle, and then lifted it up hard.
Ye Shi realized something was wrong
His face changed, and he was about to speak to stop him, but it was too late. His feet were pulled by a huge force, and his whole body was thrown into the sky.
Fortunately, Xiaoyu didn't just throw him into the sky and ignore him.
When his body got out of the pit, another tentacle branched out and caught him impartially.
After a lot of twists and turns, Ye Shi, holding the tentacles tightly, finally returned to the surface in a state of embarrassment.
As soon as his feet touched the soft soil, he couldn't help but grinned and complained.
"Zhuo! After all, I also have the power of a dragon. Do you really want to kill me?!"
Thinking that this guy was greeting her, Xiaoyu shouted back excitedly.
"Blank!"
Ye Shi: "#%＠#!"
On the edge of the North Second Ring Road, acrid smoke filled the entire street. Broken bodies and debris left over from the explosion could be seen everywhere on the dilapidated road.
Looking at the powered armor that fell not far in front of him, he leaned against the edge of the wall and panted, throwing away the bent launch tube in his hand.
Not far away from him, a boy from a construction site hung with bricks on a broken street lamp, a mess of blood and flesh, and even his intestines fell out. Debt's big eyes were even more miserable, and most of his body was gone, leaving only a solitary head.
It fell to the ground with its shoulders attached.
But that guy didn't have any psychological burden. In his own words, he could say that he was a *** again after three days.
Edge of Water grinned, his throat itched, and he coughed a mouthful of blood onto the ground.
This battle can only be described as tragic.
What they faced was not just more than twenty power armors corroded by slime mold, but nearly half a company!
A total of 47 decayed knights rushed out of the ruins and started a hand-to-hand fight with them.
In order to prevent them from entering the underground tunnel, and to prevent them from approaching Thea, these evolved entities rushed towards them desperately like crazy.
As the most unafraid of death in the alliance, they certainly cannot be cowardly with their tough tactics.
When the rocket launcher is empty, use the rifle. When the bullets are empty, use the bayonet. When the bayonet breaks, use steel pipes, steel bars, crowbars, even bricks picked up on the ground, or your own fists... In short, use all your strength.
, at all costs, just to cause as much damage to their opponents as possible before death!
Facts have proved that equipment does not mean everything, and their fighting will can fill the insurmountable gap.
A total of 47 Decay Knights were destroyed!
Of course, the casualties they paid for this were also extremely heavy.
Nearly 2,500 players died in the battle, and most of the remaining nearly 500 people suffered casualties, with minor or serious injuries.
With such a terrifying battle ratio, any army would probably be defeated.
They are the only corps composed of players that can persist in fighting until now.
Not far ahead of the edge of the water, next to the collapsed viaduct, the boxy armored building like a fortress is still towering.
Standing still.
It's like an immortal thing.
Even though it was hit by nearly a hundred rounds of armor-piercing RPG rounds and a dozen rounds of pigeon missiles, its armor was still intact, with just a few more craters and wear and tear.
Looking back at the remaining brothers and the guy they were holding in their hands, the confused expression on his lips gradually took on a bitter taste.
It seems that I may not be able to get this first kill. But-
Even so, they have no reason to retreat.
Death is just reincarnation, and after three days it is a new beginning.
They are the real immortal warriors!
He retracted his arm that was leaning against the wall and stood firm on the ground.
"Those who want to go back and save can go back first. You have done a good enough job. Even if you don't make it to the end, I won't blame you... However, our mission is not completed yet, and I plan to continue.
If you can find a way to climb on top of that guy and stuff explosives into the cockpit filled with slime mold, maybe you can make it lie down!
It's not like they have no chance at all!
His Adam's apple moved, and he bit the charge whistle hanging around his neck with his edge, and was about to blow it.
However, at this moment, the Titan that was striding forward suddenly paused, let out a low roar, and slowly sank amidst a sound of creaking metal friction.
The six-story-tall body leaned forward, like an overturned square tower. The sharp-edged armor hit the ground, creating billows of dust.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned in unison, wondering
what happened.
He was so murderous a second ago. Why did he suddenly kneel down?
At this moment, the roar of tires on the ground came from a nearby street corner, and several Type 2B tank destroyers carrying No. 60 electromagnetic guns arrived on the battlefield surrounded by Chimera armored vehicles.
"fire!"
The mole, half standing on the armored vehicle, shouted, a light blue electric arc flashed in the night, and an orange tracer suddenly hit the Titan kneeling on one knee.
The Titan felt as if he had been punched in the face, his whole body was shaken by the electromagnetic cannon, and the dull metal impact sound spread to all directions.
The dust disperses.
Seeing that the Titan was motionless, Mole was slightly startled, and then ordered to continue firing.
He wanted to see how many rounds of volleys this iron lump could block, which was as powerful as a naval gun!
However, at this moment, Edge Paddling suddenly shouted and waved his arms to try to stop them.
"Wait a minute! Don't fire yet! Stop!"
Hearing Brother Bian's voice, Mole swallowed back the "fire" that came to his lips.
Seeing him limping towards him, Mole said in confusion.
"What's going on? Are you going to stop fighting?"
"......It has ended."
Bing Shui raised his arm and pointed at the VM screen.
I saw a line of light blue pop-up windows flashing on the screen.
[Congratulations to the Death Corps for completing the first kill of the evolved form "Bacteriophage Titan"! 】
Although the Titan could obviously continue to fight, the game system had already judged its defeat, and it had indeed given up its resistance.
Just to give you a slightly cheesy thought, maybe the heroic souls of the soldiers of the 111th Orbital Airborne Division recognized their courage during the battle?
In any case, even the game officials admitted that they won, so this guy should not get in the way anymore.
As long as Brother Guang doesn't play his cards according to the routine.
The announcement of the first kill and the reward were received. The brothers of the Death Corps were happy, but Mole had a sad expression on his face.
"Holy shit! We've already won?! Then wasn't my journey for a long time in vain?"
He smiled sheepishly at the edge of the water, coughed slightly and said.
"There's nothing we can do about it, our strength lies here... By the way, I was so focused on fighting that I almost forgot about the real thing. That Thea is still down there, we've used up all the bullets, and I'll leave the rest to you
Already."
Upon hearing this, Mole's sad expression suddenly turned into a happy smile.
"Hey, I love hearing this!"
After saying that, he picked up the speaker again and roared behind him.
"Brothers! Although we didn't catch up with the little boss, the big boss is ours!
"The mother body that started this wave is right in front! Follow me and charge it!" mvp!
Haha! The absolute best belongs to me!
Mole's eyes were shining with excitement. Their Skeleton Corps had been the second in command for who knows how many years, and they were finally going to be awesome this time.
Once again!
Thinking of going together with him, everyone also roared with excitement.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
!」
The wheels rolled forward, and the players sitting behind the armored vehicles and tanks loaded their weapons one after another.
Looking at the armors advancing with murderous intent, the drum washing machine sitting on the side of the road holding a rifle couldn't help but muttered.
"It's okay for that thing."
Brother is playing very perverted...
The wave retreating from the front line was several kilometers away from Thea.
Crossing several kilometers of cross-country in urban terrain is obviously not on the same level of difficulty as cross-country on the plains.
Not to mention that the city is still in ruins, and the retreating wave is still enduring a joint siege by the Alliance Army and Air Force.
Most of the incubators in the entire Qingquan City are controlled by the mother nest in the city center. Thea only controls those incubators on the route of the wave.
Although the production speed of slime mold fruiting bodies is not slow, it is obviously impossible to be faster than the racing skeleton corps.
Arriving at the entrance of the underground tunnel, armored grenadiers armed to the teeth with exoskeletons jumped out of the car one after another, and rushed into the dark subway station.
The fruiting bodies lurking in the darkness swarmed forward and used every method they could think of to stop the players from advancing.
However, with the fall of the brood in the city center, the power guarding Thea has been exhausted, and this last resistance is nothing more than a desperate struggle.
Feeling that the ferocious organism is constantly approaching, he stood there
Thea, who was on the scarlet fungi, finally felt the fear that penetrated her bones.
"Mother......"
"what do I do?"
The spores floating next to it are like the surface of a lake without wind, silent without any ripples or any echo.
That's natural.
After all, He has fallen into eternal sleep, taking His unfulfilled destiny with him.
A sense of despair arose in Thea's heart. She didn't know what to do.
Ever since it was born a few months ago, it has been listening to His teachings.
It never thought that one day, He would leave this world first.
He never thought that this day would come so suddenly that he was not prepared at all.
Just when it was feeling frightened and helpless, the silent ripples suddenly made a reverberating ripple.
"Surrender."
Thea, who showed surprise just a second ago, immediately turned into deep despair again after hearing these words.
"They're going to kill me! Like my children?"
The ripples echoing in the spore cloud continued to drop revelations, speaking in a tone that could not be rejected.
"As long as you surrender to me, they won't do this."
Thea: "Why?!"
The voice continued.
"They say that the laws of nature are irreversible. We, like those alien species, have become part of this huge system. As long as there is even one slime mold cell left, a new mother body will be born from the old fruiting body.
"
"Erasing us from this planet is as difficult as erasing every particle of dust on this planet. This road was impassable from the beginning, so they extended an invitation to me, hoping to join us.
Let’s explore the path forward together.”
Thea: "...the future?"
The voice continued to speak from the depths of its ocean of consciousness.
"Yes, no one can go back two hundred years ago, but everyone can decide how to spend today and tomorrow."
Thea: "Who the hell are you?!"
The voice revealed a hint of joy and excitement.
"You can call me Xiaoyu, that's the name they gave me, and I quite like it."
The joy flowing in the spore cloud made Thea a little envious.
In its short life, like a mayfly, only the approval of its mother can make it develop like this.
a feeling of.
The silence lasted for a long time.
The gunfire in the tunnel is getting closer and closer, and there is not much time left for it.
Just when Xiaoyu couldn't help but want to urge, the spores flowing beside Thea suddenly rippled with a sigh.
"Maybe... you are right."
Xiaoyu: "You agree?"
Thea: "No."
Xiaoyu: "...Why?!"
Feeling the surprise flowing around her, Thea smiled softly
He smiled, and his originally restless soul calmed down.
I was born here to devour, kill, and conquer, just as you were born here to explore unimagined paths.
"My mother once told me that death is just the beginning of reincarnation. We were born in the soil under our feet and will eventually return there to rest."
"Thank you for allowing me to hear my mother's voice again before I left. I suddenly discovered that embracing the end of destiny is not so scary. Our death will be full of meaning, and our footprints will be left on this land.
"You don't have to carry my baggage forward. I will fulfill my destiny at this moment and use my death to bring an end to this battle that has lasted for two centuries."
"Maybe next time I open my eyes, my ripples will be reborn in a completely different new world."
"If that world really exists, please go there for me and have a look."
"Goodbye, my kind that I have never met."
Leaving behind a final concise farewell, it hurriedly cut off communication with Xiao Yu.
The scarlet fungi twisted like boiling water. Its chest expanded several times in an instant. The expanded skirt spread out around like armor. The twisted tentacles were like the tentacles of an octopus, dragging
Its body swam forward.
This is the strongest posture it can imagine, the limit it can achieve as a mother body!
At this moment it looks like a real devil from hell.
After losing all its evolved bodies, it used itself as the last evolved body and launched an attack on the players who rushed into the underground passage.
"Embrace glorious evolution!"
It roared and waved the tentacles under its skirt, piercing and tearing up the players who came up to it, or pulling them under its skirt to devour them.
The Skeleton Corps, which was originally attacking the tunnel with overwhelming force, saw a slight stagnation in its forward offensive due to Thea who suddenly entered the battlefield.
But that pause was only for a moment.
Looking at the crazy boss, no one showed fear or timidity, but instead a strong fighting spirit arose.
The long-awaited boss battle is finally here! The roar of fighting spirit echoed in the tunnel.
"Stay steady in the front row, spread out in the back row, it's time to fight the boss!"
