Chapter 31 The second explosion in the noble district
The aristocratic district of King's Port is still under martial law these days due to the previous attack on the Margery family. Therefore, when the main house in the mansion made huge explosions and roars, all the city defense troops in the entire aristocratic district were
They were all mobilized.
The legendary strongman of the Margery family, Ron Margery, and the legendary strongman of the Frank family, "Sir Lion" Hayden Frank, personally experienced this abandoned mansion that had never been noticed by anyone.
At this moment, under the ruins of the mansion, Dehaka was leading the shadow bugs to quickly evacuate everything in the Church of Evolution.
This small stronghold has a secret passage leading to the outside of the city, but it seemed to have collapsed before. However, this small collapse is not a problem for the insect swarm that is good at digging. Not even Dehaka.
Summoning the cockroaches lurking deep underground in the city, he used his claws to dig out the secret passage again.
Then, it summoned the elite insect swarm team it brought, and asked them to work with the shadow insects to quickly move everything in the basement through the secret passage.
These "things" include not only a large number of various Xel'Naga experimental equipment, but also seven or eight "evolvers" wearing black robes and more than a dozen "devil slaves".
It is also worth mentioning that Dehaka found the disemboweled old Cherki on the experimental table of the stronghold. When he was found, this guy was staring at the ceiling above his head with empty eyes. He had obviously been injected with
What life-sustaining drugs?
Dehaka's men did not have a mother insect at this time, and it was already very angry about the guy's escape just now, so it once thought about carrying the old human guy out like this. As for whether he could survive it
To survive the bumps along the way, he would have to leave it to his own fate.
However, Dehaka later thought that it had just failed in the mission entrusted to it by the Lord. If human life was taken lightly when the blind chicken made arbitrary decisions, I am afraid Xue Hua would not let it go so easily.
So this guy who always only knew how to kill and devour essences took a rare moment of subtlety and reported the difficult matter at hand to Xue Hua through a shadow insect.
At this moment, Xue Hua was watching the insect mother and the insect swarm exploring the straight artificial tunnel. They would soon reach the other end of the tunnel, and at the corner at the other end of the tunnel, a little bit of Xue Hua had
The bright white light seen in the Xel'Naga laboratory beneath Trevank is slowly reflecting through the tunnel walls.
At this time, Xue Hua received a report from the shadow bugs around Dehaka.
"What?! You lost that person to me?! What the hell did I tell you in the first place? If we can't catch that guy, it's like we're working in vain!"
Hearing that Dehaka actually let No. 1 run away, Xue Hua suddenly became furious and blushed. He wished he could climb to the top of the cliff and strangle this damn husky to death, which only knew how to swallow the essence.
.....
"Have you been alert for a long time? How could you have been alert for a long time! Did you just jump in and alert the snake?"
However, after a while, Dehaka's explanation made him slowly frown.
Dehaka told him through the mind connection of the shadow bugs' main nest that the other party was suspected to have been alerted before they carried out the round-up plan. This caused the insect swarm to lose the opportunity and the shadow bugs' round-up was often not completely closed.
But how is this possible?
From the moment Xue Hua got the information from No. 2, he worked non-stop and cautiously all the way, so as not to give the other party time to react and notice.
If things were kept so secret, how could the other party be able to discern the movements of the insect swarm in advance?
Unless Dehaka's secrets were kept secret and he alerted the enemy during the operation, and was discovered by the opponent first, from a tactical perspective, there would be absolutely no chance for the opponent to detect their actions first.
"Didn't alert the snake? Are you sure?"
Xue Hua stood there, frowning tightly. The bad news from Dehaka made him feel particularly unhappy.
"I'm sure I didn't alert the snake... So what's going on? Is that guy's legendary intuition so sensitive?"
Just when he was puzzled, Isa suddenly mentioned a possibility to him in the main hive mind.
"Master, the psychic machine our insect swarm just destroyed was transmitting an extremely secretive and monotonous signal in the human city above before it lost its ability to move.
Our node king insect just intercepted and deciphered the signal and found that the meaning of the signal is continuity. Once interrupted, the signal receiver at the other end will be alert.
Dehaka's target may have become alert because of the sudden signal interruption."
"Is there such a thing? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xue Hua narrowed his eyes and asked with some displeasure.
"The psychic signal is very monotonous and concealed. It is hidden in the rocks of the cliff and is transmitted upward. Without very careful identification, anyone will confuse this signal with the mineral radiation in nature. Our node king insect also just
Only then did I discover, Lord.”
"I see... Hey, it seems that these guys deserve to die, so forget it! Dehaka, bring out everything you can, and destroy what you can't bring out...
What? An old human being who was disemboweled? Did he have a broken leg and three parallel scars on his forehead?"
Xue Hua was about to give Dehaka a few words to let him deal with all the things in the secret stronghold of the Church of Evolution, when he heard Dehaka send him another piece of information.
"Then he is right, it is Cherki... This old guy is actually still alive! Hey! He is really lucky. He has encountered so many strange situations in his life, and he managed to survive in the end...
..
You should try your best to settle him, it is best to bring him out alive, and then let the insect mother in Linhai's insect nest treat him, but don't let him wake up, yes, that's it."
Xue Hua shook his head speechlessly after hearing the news. This old guy was really lucky. He narrowly survived the shipwreck. Although he had a broken leg, he was at least still alive.
Then I saw the "ghost" three times in a row but escaped unscathed each time.
The last time, he was caught in the temporary stronghold of the Church of Evolution and faced the risk of undergoing a transformation surgery with brainwashing effect, but he was rescued by the insect swarm at the last moment.
What should he say?
I can only say that this is life...
This old guy will definitely die in the end!
As the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later...
After a few words solved Old Cherki's problem, Xue Hua turned his attention back to the exploration of the insect swarm in the cave.
Since the "No. 1" who has a high probability of being Greg has escaped, the remaining value of the Church of Evolution in King's Port is only the Sacred Land that is regarded as a "holy place" by a group of "evolvers".
Ernaga laboratory.
Since the Church of Evolution basically originated in this laboratory, Xue Hua was very interested in knowing what the Xel'Naga was doing in this damn place.
As for the aristocratic gentlemen in the aristocratic district of King's Port overhead, who were frightened again by the explosion just now?
Ha...he is too lazy to meddle in such noisy matters!
