Ye Han's inexplicable orders and the soldiers' indiscriminate actions caused the scientific expedition team to collapse. Several people yelled and tried to break free from the soldiers' hands.
However, the soldiers are all strong and strong. Even if the scientific expedition team members are wearing power armor, they cannot escape from the hands of the soldiers and can only be sent into the cave one by one by the soldiers.
At such a critical juncture, several chubby trapping insects suddenly jumped out from under the sand near the sinkhole. They emerged from the high ground and jumped several meters high. They opened their mouths wide and fell from the sky. Their big mouths covered the soldiers like a cover.
them.
The soldiers opened fire instinctively, but the Captor Bug was much larger than the Giant Scorpion Beetle, and its carapace was thicker and stronger. Even armor-piercing bullets could not penetrate it, leaving only a string of sparks on the Captor Bug's carapace.
Fortunately, the soldiers not only had rifles, but also grenade launchers. With a few booms, several high-explosive grenades penetrated into the giant insect's open mouth and exploded in the throat of the captive insect. The insect's blood immediately
It flowed out gurglingly, pouring water all over the heads and faces of a few unlucky warriors.
Everyone thought that the injured captive bug would give up the action, but the giant bug, which did not want to be seriously injured, did not flinch at all, and still opened its mouth wide to cover the target. Several warriors who were firing desperately were swallowed by the captive bug in one go.
Ye Han was not worried about the safety of the soldiers at all, but was very surprised by the tenacity of the captured insects.
Seeing that all the soldiers who were left on the ground were being devoured by the captive bugs, Ye Han rushed into the sand pit without having time to grab the cable. In his haste, he grabbed the edge of the hole with one hand and hung at the bottom of the pit with one arm.
Worried that the captured bugs would leave, Ye Han immediately shouted on the radio: "Bridge, open fire, fire for me and kill the bugs!"
"The bridge understands!" Lin Yi instinctively agreed, but immediately felt something was wrong, "Chief, the man is still in the worm's belly!"
"Low power, just kill it!"
"I know... uh, Chief, the bugs haven't escaped, they are all in the sinkhole!"
Up there?
Ye Han immediately thought of the giant beetle. Just when he was about to reply to Lin Yi, the giant mouth on the top of the pit opened again. Yellow sand flew in a narrow gap. The holes gradually stood up as the mouth opened. Ye Han
Han quickly grabbed the hanging cable and slid to the bottom of the pit in one breath: "Get out of the way, get over here!"
The soldiers pulled the scientific expedition members out of the way quickly. Those who responded quickly would let go and walked away, while those who responded slowly simply dragged them away.
As soon as I got out of the way, the dark sinkhole was illuminated by the sun. A round trap insect poked its head out amid the falling sand, moved forward a few times, and almost fell into the sinkhole.
He stopped again, as if sensing danger, and hesitated to move forward.
At this time, another captive insect hit it, so the hesitant giant insect fell into the sinkhole like a weight, and fell heavily to the bottom of the pit. The splashing digestive juice flew dozens of meters, even splashing on the soldiers.
on them.
Fortunately, this thing can only digest organic matter and has no effect on the soldiers' armor.
The captive insect rolled back and forth, its legs flicking wildly, and within a short while, its entire body was covered in digestive juices.
However, even if soaked in digestive juices, this captive insect is still full of energy and keeps doing it over and over again.
At this time, the second captive insect fell and hit the first captive insect. The two giant insects struggled together without any intention of dying.
Xiao Yuan touched his head and was extremely surprised: "No, that beetle died as soon as it fell in. How come these two guys are still alive and kicking?"
Ye Han didn't even think about it. How could he know how to answer?
It happened that the third captive insect fell down and hit one of its companions, smashing the giant insect below until it pooped and urinated, even its internal organs came out, and it was almost dead.
Xiao Yuan blinked: "Isn't it right? Could it be that they were all smashed to death?"
Ye Han was helpless: "Are you awake?"
"No, captain, you saw it too, there must be something wrong with this!"
"You don't have to say it!" Ye Han glared at Xiao Yuan, who was expressionless, "Only you know!"
Only then did Xiao Yuan vaguely realize what the problem was, and he closed his mouth in embarrassment.
Luo Qi suddenly said: "Captain, could this matter have something to do with the giant insect?"
This sentence flashed through Ye Han's mind like a bolt of lightning. He immediately looked at Gu Cheng: "Captain Gu, what do you think?"
Gu Cheng has been observing the situation in the pit since he went down to the bottom of the pit. When he heard Ye Han's question, he took back his thoughts: "It's possible. I don't know about the sinkhole yet, but from what you said,
, it must have a way to kill the giant insects that fall in. From this perspective, it can indeed explain why there are giant insects living in the pit."
"Not necessarily?" Xiao Yuan sang the opposite tune, "If the giant insect was killed by an insect, it must have left some traces, right? But who of you saw it? Anyway, I didn't see it."
The soldiers couldn't help but discuss it, and they all felt that what Xiao Yuan said made sense.
Gu Cheng's eyes widened: "You mean, there are no bite marks?"
"No!" Xiao Yuan said very firmly.
"That's definitely not a bug!"
"What could it be if it wasn't a bug?" Luo Qi asked.
Gu Cheng said: "There are many possibilities, but without clues, we cannot jump to conclusions casually."
At this time, Ye Han changed the topic: "Okay, don't talk about these useless things, have the bugs come down?"
"It's down!" Ouyang Ping quickly replied, "Not a single one is missing."
Ye Han waved his hand at the rolling captive insects: "Kill them and rescue our people."
Xiao Yuan was the first to pick up the rifle: "Group 2, follow me!"
Ouyang Ping and Luo Qi also wanted to follow, but were stopped by Ye Han: "The last group is enough. With so few bugs, we don't need so many people."
The two of them looked at each other helplessly, and both of them felt fierce in their hearts. They would definitely get ahead of Xiao Yuan next time.
Xiao Yuan took the lead, rushed to a place only seven or eight meters away from the insect, picked up his gun and shot several times at the head and neck of the giant insect.
The 12.7 mm armor-piercing bullet instantly penetrated the weak insect shell at the junction of the head and neck. The bullet passed through the splashing insect blood and penetrated deeply into the insect's head. It was not known which bullet hit the vital point. The giant insect that struggled for a long time gradually became motionless.
.
He wielded his saber to rescue the soldiers from the belly of the giant insect, and the soldiers who saw the light of day cursed wildly.
They tried many ways to find ways inside the insect's belly, but the captured insect was so perverted that it couldn't get out no matter how hard it was shot with a knife or a gun. The soldiers almost fired the grenades on their bodies.
After the people were rescued, Ye Han called several captains to him: "Everyone knows the situation. There is a sinkhole to cover us. We are still safe now, but I have a problem now. The first batch of captured insects fell into the sinkhole.
, the aliens sent a second batch, what is this for?"
