Chapter 76 The Underground Channel Network of the Swarm
At night, when the moon was high in the sky, Xue Hua and Kane were standing in front of a dark tunnel in the basement of the Foreign Guest House.
This is a passage dug by the cockroaches in the swarm a few days ago. The destination of the passage leads to the coast of Haworth Island. There are six exits in total.
While Xue Hua was observing the ceremony, the insect swarm was not idle doing anything. In order to ensure the absolute safety of the Overlord, as early as when they landed on the island, Isa arranged for cockroaches and other insect swarm units to start on Haworth Island.
A huge network of channels is woven underground.
This channel network was completed this morning. In addition to channels that can lead directly to the coast of the island, there is also a team of fast-response shadow bugs and mimic hatchlings available. This team has been using this channel network to move around the island.
Collecting all kinds of information for the insect swarm everywhere, ensuring that Isa, as the adjutant of the insect swarm, has a thorough understanding of this vast island.
The Singing Queen is going to sacrifice the Tidestone tonight, and she will do it in secret.
Therefore, she definitely didn't want some uninvited guests to suddenly appear from the side in the middle of the sacrificial event.
Therefore, there will definitely be a blockade, and it will definitely be sealed tightly and airtight.
If Xue Hua is alone, even without the help of the insect swarm, he can easily break through any blockade set by the opponent with the help of the invisibility and penetration of the ghost cell skills.
But others can't do this.
Although Kane's Horadrim spells do have spells similar to "group invisibility", this skill is basically useless in front of a group of Amazons who can use inner vision.
So they have to go through underground passages, which are dug deep enough, and no Amazon will idle and stare at the ground.
"...Do we have to go from here?" Kane looked at the seemingly bottomless tunnel and looked at Xue Hua reluctantly.
"Unless you have a way to take us directly to the edge of the sea cliff." Xue Hua rolled his eyes and shattered the old man's illusions without hesitation.
"..."
"All right......"
Kane hesitated for a long time, but in the end he couldn't resist the desire to see the scene of the chanting clan worshiping the Tide Stone in person, and slowly climbed into the tunnel according to Xue Hua's guidance.
After seeing Kane enter, Xue Hua smiled and shook his head, then lightly jumped into the tunnel.
The interior of the tunnel was not as narrow, dirty, and oppressive as Kane imagined.
In fact, the cockroaches have expanded the tunnel to a large size, and there are also worker bees to help reinforce the tunnel walls with reinforcing slime. The hole looks small because there is no need to expand it, and if the amount of work is too large, it may attract foreign guests.
Outside the attention of those chanting clan monitors.
The interior of the tunnel is wide enough for people to stand upright and walk, and temporary steps or gentle slopes have been built downwards in the tunnel.
The swarm's accomplishments in underground construction are also unique among the three interstellar races. Whether it is tunnel worms or cockroach worker bees, they can easily create a cobweb-like underground passage and hidden nests deep underground.
"How's it going, old man? It's a little different from what you imagined, isn't it?"
Xue Hua walked down the stairs, patted the shoulder of Kane who was stunned, and showed off proudly.
"...It's simply amazing that in such a short time..."
"Okay, let's go, we have to pick up the two queens." Xue Hua saw that Kane had the urge to do some research, so he had to interrupt him helplessly, reminding him that there was something more important tonight.
things to do.
"Ah...oh, I understand, let's go." Kane woke up with a start and understood that now was not a good time to study these things, so he followed Xue Hua and walked deeper into the passage.
After they left, two more people quickly emerged from the hole in the basement of the foreign guest building.
The appearance and aura of these two people are exactly the same as Xue Hua and Kane.
Of course, they are not the real Xue Hua and Kane, they are just transformed copies of the two mimic larvae, used to confuse the monitors outside the building.
The real Xue Hua and Kane have already arrived outside Yuxon City with the help of the cockroaches.
The Queen of String Song and the Queen of Sea Spear are waiting for them in a hidden jungle.
Bang!
There was a slight muffled sound, and a dark hole appeared on the mud in front of the two queens. A ferocious-looking four-legged creature covered in a hard black carapace emerged from the hole.
Seeing this thing, Sarah walked over very familiarly, while Hannah looked at this strange creature that suddenly appeared with some surprise.
Sarah walked to the entrance of the cave and looked down, then turned back and smiled at the Seaspear Queen.
"Don't worry, this is Xue's servant. It is a friendly force, not an enemy."
"...Forehead."
Sarah's words made Hannah stunned. She glanced at the cockroach standing next to the hole again, and then walked over with a weird look on her face.
"Is this the way that little guy said to bypass the Singing Clan's blockade?"
The Sea Spear Queen glanced at the entrance of the hole and curled her lips, "If you escape from the ground deep enough, you will still be caught. Don't underestimate our warriors."
"Don't worry, since he dares to use this method, he must have a guarantee that the secret will not be revealed. Let's go down first. Xue and Kane should be waiting below."
"Hey...Okay." Hannah didn't question anything and just followed Sarah and jumped into the hole.
After they jumped down, the cockroach that dug the hole quickly entered the hole, and then the hole on the flat ground was quickly refilled and disappeared. After the soil rolled for a while, the ground in the jungle returned to its previous appearance.
Below the cave entrance, Sarah and Hannah finally walked into a very spacious underground passage. This passage was not only large, but also very deep, so that they walked along the small tunnel above for nearly ten minutes before arriving.
Main channel.
Here, Xue Hua and Kane were already sitting on the cockroaches waiting for them.
"Two queens, you are finally here."
Xue Hua smiled and waved his hand gently, and two cockroaches crawled out from the side and crawled quietly in front of the two queens.
"Hehe... There are also mounts, and the service is good." Sarah smiled and climbed directly onto the back of one of the cockroaches without any care.
Hannah on the other side hesitated a little before sitting on it.
No way, the appearance of the insect swarm units is really not very pleasing. Anyone who sees them at first sight will never think of them as kind creatures.
"Sit down, we will set off immediately. My servant sent me a message. The chanting clan has started to build an altar. If you don't get there, you won't be able to catch up."
Seeing that both of them got on the "horse", Xue Hua nodded and waved his hand forward without hesitation, and the four cockroaches immediately ran away towards the depths of the passage. (To be continued)
