Just by looking at the speed at which those red dots moved, Mu Fan knew what they were without any reminder.
"Flying pterosaur!"
"Preliminary calculations indicate that the number exceeds 500! The drone has been caught up."
In Hei's angry voice, the divided surveillance areas on the light screen went out one by one.
"Based on provisional data, these flying pterosaurs came out of deep areas, and there is an 82.1% chance that our whereabouts have been exposed."
"Sit tight, I control those drones to distract those bugs. These bugs successfully angered Master Hei, and they dared to demolish my base!"
Mu Fan only felt a strong push behind him. The originally quiet aircraft suddenly erupted with a strong vibration. The tail engine turned from dark to bright, and the reconnaissance ship, no longer concealing its whereabouts, turned around and dived suddenly towards the rear.
And those drones that originally flew towards the reconnaissance ship all turned around and rushed towards the flying pterosaurs. The silver-white drones and the brown flying pterosaurs intersected instantly, and an overwhelming green corrosive liquid enveloped them.
The man-machine only fired the missile below and detonated it in the air before being completely corroded.
The clustered brown flying pterosaurs suddenly dispersed, and violent explosions exploded in the air. However, these extremely maneuverable Zegers easily dodged it, and only a small part was swallowed up by the blazing fire.
Burning limbs fell from mid-air, like a rain of fire.
These fast-flying Zegers quickly looked at the remaining drones with cruel eyes, and then flew up with a wave of wings.
At this moment, Hei's goal was finally achieved, and these drones bought valuable time for the reconnaissance ship to evacuate.
The reconnaissance ship turned into a stream of light and used continuous semi-arc turns to confuse its route.
Without the drone's field of vision, the endless virgin forest instantly turns into a huge maze.
Hei and Mu Fan, who were high in the sky, no longer knew what threats were lurking in the dense forest below.
Little did they know that as they were walking away, a sharp and ferocious cry came from the depths of the dense primeval forest.
Thirty minutes later, the reconnaissance ship flew by the side more than ten kilometers away from the temporary base. The monitoring equipment on the bottom armor clearly captured the situation there, and then presented it to Mu Fan.
The originally huge temporary base has long since disappeared, with a radial scorched ruin spreading out from the center of the base.
The charred ruins were still covered with thick green liquid, and there was no trace of metal reflection at all.
Outside the ruins, a brown blanket of Zerg bacteria could be vaguely seen, but there was still half an insect on it.
Even the entrance to the cave that Mu Fan saw on the surveillance camera disappeared at this moment.
It was as if it had never appeared.
This gives those Zeges hidden in the primeval forests a layer of mystery.
"The Zege tribe's tunnel...this is what I am most worried about." Hei's voice was filled with deep worry.
"What's the meaning?"
"If the tunnel you just saw was fixed, it would probably be easier to say, which means it is just a hole dug by ordinary Zerg. However, the kind of ground that can transport countless bugs instantly can only be done by that kind of bug. This is not
It’s just an ordinary cave…”
"What kind of bug?"
"Chrysalis." Hei's voice was solemn. In the memory shared by Mohanda, this kind of thing is not very strong in individual ability but extremely threatening.
In other words, when this kind of creature appears, we will know that those bugs are definitely not low-level creatures that only rely on limb evolution, but a kind of extraordinary technology that humans and even the Mohanda race do not have.
"This kind of chrysalis passage has not been seen a few times in the universe plane where I am. On the contrary, Mohanda is more familiar with it from years of fighting."
"What are chrysalis? Are their passages special?" The reconnaissance ship had already begun to take off and move away from the temporary base, but those pictures were still frozen in front of Mu Fan, who frowned at the light curtains.
"This is a high-level zerg that has basically no attack power and looks like a giant leech."
"They possess some unknown technology. For example, humans can make space jumps through warp engines. The tunnels dug by these chrysalids are equivalent to miniaturizing wormholes in the interstellar world and actually using them on the battlefield." Black
Mu Fan gave an answer that sounded like a fantasy.
Mu Fan frowned and asked in a deep voice: "Are you saying that if we really excavated under those passages, there might not be any normal potholes at all!?"
"That's right! This is an ability similar to fixed-point space teleportation evolved by the Zegs themselves. It doesn't have the exaggerated distance and efficiency of human spaceship jump capabilities, but the advantage is obvious, that is, it can teleport or transport large numbers of Zegs instantly."
"In that case, this ability is too exaggerated. If it was opened directly in the base before, wouldn't everyone be dead?"
"Theoretically, this is true, but the actual situation is that there are mandatory restrictions on distance and carpet. Those pupae must have arrived near the temporary base under cover before building such a passage. The key is that this kind of pupae is not a problem
The key, the key is why this strategic level of Zeger appears on Planet 131!"
Hei's words instantly reminded Mu Fan, and he and Hei said almost in unison: "Unless there are more advanced bugs inside!"
"Yes, this is the only explanation. Based on the direction in which those flying pterosaurs appeared, we can infer that there must be a high-level Zeger inside."
"...Maybe it's a giant corruptor!"
"Or something higher."
"Anyway, now we have to return to the shadow base. I'm afraid we will have to fight hard next."
The reconnaissance ship flying in an arc finally escaped from the unknown forest safely. The vast sea of red vegetation in the Red Valley looked so friendly at this moment.
Like a shadow base standing on the plains like a majestic castle, rumbling sounds were heard constantly at this moment.
Large quantities of high crystal stones continue to pour into the base on the conveyor belt.
As soon as the reconnaissance ship landed, Mu Fan's figure disappeared into the base.
…
At this time, in space about 150,000 kilometers away from Landu Star, a lifeless transport ship had just had all its engines turned off and was hovering motionless in the universe.
There are no signs on the gray hull, and even inside the hull, all the corridors and halls are empty without a single person.
As for the central control room, there was only a huge light curtain flashing continuously.
A line of red fonts is displayed on the light curtain:
[Automatic cruise destination has arrived, waiting to be received.]
This is clearly a spacecraft that has been set to automatically cruise in the direction.
If a star thief appeared nearby at this time and tried to board the ship, he would be surprised to find that it was unimpeded.
Could this be a deliberate attempt to abandon the ships here?
However, the cost of building such an ordinary transport spaceship starts at 50 million.
If you notice the steel giant lying quietly in the cabin, the price may be dozens of times higher.
This area is tens of thousands of kilometers away from the normal shipping lane. Due to the harsh celestial environment, few spacecraft will pass through here.
However, at this moment, eight small black ship hulls suddenly appeared from nearby, and they headed towards the transport ship together.
Front, rear, left, and right, it was instantly divided into four directions and pressed against the silent hull at the same time.
