Two hydralisks were entrenched next to the collapsed statue at the entrance to the tomb. They would occasionally move slightly, making a slight "sand" sound as they rubbed against the gravel on the ground. They would suddenly stretch out their huge upper bodies, and with the help of the king insect's positioning, they would directly open their jets.
cavity, instantly shooting the deadly thorns into the heads of the undead monsters wandering near the cemetery, then lowered their bodies and disappeared into the shadow of the statue's remains.
Outside the tomb door, the fallen corpses will not exist for long. Before they disappear naturally, there will be a surge of soil under the corpses. Along with a slight neighing, several dark claws stretch out from the ground, pulling the corpses
Drag it into the ground.
With the hydralisks and cockroaches working together to eliminate the traces, this tomb filled with insect swarms actually looked so normal.
Under the dim light in the tomb, Xue Hua was sitting silently between two insect mothers. His eyes were staring straight at the ground, as if he was in a daze.
But in fact, he was searching for traces of Xuewu from the perspective of the monitoring king insect.
This task is actually not difficult, after all, among the cold-toned scenery, Xuewu's scarlet leather armor is so eye-catching.
Moreover, this guy neither likes to hide in dark and rugged underground caves like the corpse is angry, nor is he willing to be surrounded by a large group of men like Bisu Bosu.
It shuttled openly among the tombs in the Boneyard, and the slow-moving zombies simply couldn't keep up with its pace.
From the time he first entered the tomb to now, Xue Hua has caught the traces of the monitoring king insect several times in his field of vision. On several occasions, this fiery red figure has even passed by not far from the tomb.
The reason why I haven't done anything yet...
It's actually very simple.
It's so fast!
Yes, even in the high-definition perspective of the Supervisory King Insect, Xuewu's figure is as fast as a ball of flying fireballs. Whenever Xue Hua observes it, he can only see a flash.
The passing red phantom.
And this seems to be just the normal speed at which it patrols its territory. Once it starts fighting, it is impossible to predict how fast it will move.
However, this is not actually a trouble. Even if the Blood Crow is fast, it cannot be faster than the thorns of the Hydralisk. With the vision of the Monitoring King Insect locked, the main hive mind can easily calculate the shooting angle and shooting advance, and then
Submit this value to the cerebral cortex of the Hydralisk and hand it over to the Hydralisk for immediate execution.
In fact, this is how the Hydralisks dealt with the protoss reconnaissance planes and Dark Templar warriors that came and went like the wind. In reality, the position of the Overlord Worms is not just "providing population" and "detecting invisibility"
"So simple.
However, what worries Xue Hua the most is not the red leather-clad woman running around like a disco on someone's grave.
But it was the Blood Crow clone attached to the long bow that was hidden deep in the huge underground tomb.
It's just a projection, and its normal movement speed is so fast that the Supervisory King Insect, which specializes in investigation, can't see the details of its body without using a slow-motion camera. It can be imagined that the clone's speed will break through the sky!
Moreover, the environment that Xue Hua has to face when fighting the Blood Crow clone is still a darker and more complicated underground tomb...
"I can't get through this day!" Xue Hua rolled his eyes desperately, his mind filled with images of himself being beaten by Xue Wu's clone.
"Forget it, let's kill this little one first and try our luck later. If it doesn't work... I can't beat you, why don't we flip the chessboard? Then we'll hatch dozens or hundreds of poisonous ones.
Baneling, if you make it difficult for me to survive, I will dig up your ancestral grave first!" Xue Hua's eyes were filled with gleaming eyes, and he was filled with rogue energy. He was so stimulated by his own thoughts that he was ready to move.
But if I do this...will Akela hunt me down for the rest of my life?
"Don't think about it for now! Tunam! Open the way! Let's go meet that parkour girl!" Xue Hua stood up, but heard a "click" sound, and his "great body" that had straightened up bent down again.
"Ouch! My waist..."
I had been sitting in the same position for too long, and my body's center of gravity was too low. When I suddenly stood up, it was almost inevitable that I would reach my waist. Professionals just don't get sick, but the basic laws of physics still have to be observed.
...
The mother's feeding fluid was powerful enough, so Xue Hua did not have to postpone the plan due to this embarrassing reason.
Tasks were assigned to both insect mothers, and the insect swarm began to act under the tactical orders of the insect mothers. Most of the cockroaches emerged from the surface, and cooperated with springtails and hydralisks to clean up the undead monsters scattered in the cemetery, and there were about
The five cockroaches were still hiding underground, following the footsteps of the large army.
Xue Hua always kept part of his attention on monitoring the King Insects. Although he had handed over the power of tactical orders to the Insect Mothers, he also knew that with the Insect Mothers' tactical literacy, they would never miss the opportunity to surround and kill the target.
He was still very nervous when the incident came to pass. After all, Xuewu's speed was a bit beyond his understanding. He was also afraid that the insect mothers had misjudged Xuewu's speed of action.
The two insect mothers kept fine-tuning the direction of the insect swarm according to the red figure that flashed from time to time in the perspective of the monitoring king insect, and slowly adjusted the deployment of the main force of the insect swarm.
The fastest moving springtails were moved from the center front to the two wings, and the main force composed of cockroaches and hydralisks spread out slowly and regularly.
Soon, a large net slowly took shape in a corner of the Bone Burial Ground.
Seeing this scene, Xue Hua knew that the insect mothers had roughly grasped the movements of the Xuewu projection and were setting up a killing net to limit the target's range of movement.
The closer you get to the location of Xuewu, the greater the density of undead monsters. Xuewu seems to be wandering around in the boneyard unconsciously, resurrecting dead corpses at will to fill this desecrated place.
However, these corpses that had obviously just crawled out of the grave could not greatly hinder the movement of the insect swarm. As the "chichi" sounds continued to sound, a starving dead was sent back to death with every sound.
However, these corpses that had just been summoned by Xuewu seemed to still retain part of the necromantic mana left by Xuewu, and their constant deaths soon alarmed Xuewu who was wandering aimlessly.
Xue Hua saw from the perspective of the monitoring king insect that Xuewu suddenly stopped running around and stood there to observe something carefully.
After a while, it obviously discovered something, and suddenly it took extremely fast steps and ran along a high wall of the burial ground to the edge area. The speed was actually nearly 50% faster than the wandering speed just now!
Xue Hua was stunned for a moment, and then quickly realized that the direction of Xuewu's movement was exactly the edge area of the large "net" spread by the insect mothers, which had not been completely sealed off!
And with Xuewu's current speed, there is every chance that he will jump out of the killing net before the leading springtail reaches the blockade position.
Once its action is successful, the insect swarm will become passive!
"What the hell!" Xue Hua was a little panicked. He didn't expect Xuewu's movements to be so fast and highly targeted. It was obviously just a projection with no intelligence. Shouldn't he pounce on the enemy when he sees it?
Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked at the insect mothers, but the behavior of the two insect mothers made him quickly calm down.
Tunam and Zaratusa behaved very calmly. The moment they saw the movements of the Blood Crow through vision sharing, the net set by the swarm had already changed. Almost all the springtails were sent to the left wing, that is,
Xuewu planned to break out of the encirclement, while the slower-moving cockroaches were left on the right wing and the central defense line. The two insect mothers divided the springtails into two teams. One team went to the blockade point to intercept and hinder Xuewu's breakthrough.
The first team continued to advance in the depth direction of the left wing in order to expand the coverage of the killing net.
This method is very effective. At Xuewu's current speed, if he continues to insist on breaking through from the left wing, he will be blocked by the second line of springtails advancing in depth after passing through the first swarm blockade.
Being flanked by springtails pursuing from behind, he fell into a fatal predicament.
However, this method also caused a crack in the originally intact "net" between the left wing and the center.
Xue Wu didn't know how to sense it, but he quickly understood the movements of the insect swarm. It changed the direction of the breakout without hesitation, abandoned the left wing, and instead headed straight for the gap in the middle.
At the same time, a large number of undead monsters suddenly went crazy and began to desperately block the cockroaches trying to close the gap. They even did not hesitate to build high walls with corpses to block the cockroaches and hydralisks.
Seeing that Xuewu was getting closer and closer to the gap in the surrounding net, and the remaining cockroaches and hydralisks were still blocked by the undead group, Xue Hua was anxious and prepared to lead the skeletons into battle to stop them.
But just when he was about to do this, the two insect mothers' voices sounded in his heart with a hint of pride and joy that their conspiracy had succeeded.
"Master, please don't put yourself in danger. The prey has been caught in the net."
"Yes, Overlord, although its tactical awareness is excellent, it still looks very immature compared to the insect swarm."
