At the front of the team, because the new scout team has become more cautious than before, before entering a new worm territory, they have discovered these terrifying creatures hidden behind the broad leaves.
Under the sunlight, there is a terrifying silhouette behind almost every leaf in sight. This is the part that can be seen due to direct sunlight. If you use your brain to complete the scene behind all the leaves, then here is
There are at least thousands of them.
Even though they didn't know how these worms observed the world, all the soldiers unconsciously held their breath and slowed down, looking for another safe route.
But everyone felt that they had been discovered. In the oppressive calm, there was only the rustling sound caused by the wind blowing through the leaves, and soon, this rustling sound was gradually joined by some crisp sounds like the breaking of branches.
"We've been discovered, run away."
Someone suddenly shouted, and then ran towards the large army that was only a few dozen meters away. Others heard the cry, and did not even dare to waste time in daze, and quickly moved closer to the rear. In their opinion, the only ones who were with the army were
The troops are together and rely on superior firepower to ensure their own safety.
This is generally true, but they ignore that these worms are better at melee combat than humans who can shoot from a distance, and this is a jungle with limited vision.
As they retreated, a large group of worms began to move at the same time. These fat worms bounced quickly on the leaves and were led by them to the location of the large army.
A mobile team assigned by Su Hao arrived just in front of the main force and saw the scout team running back in panic. Behind the scout team a little further away, there was the sound of rain hitting plantains. He realized that
When something bad happened, they immediately opened fire.
Among the broken branches and leaves, worms kept falling down one after another, but as long as they were not directly hit by bullets, they would turn over slightly and continue to bounce on the ground, and their movement speed on the ground was faster than on the leaves.
It was much faster to go up. It only took a second or two to catch up with the people who were lagging behind in the scout team. These people didn't even have time to scream, and were submerged in the slightly red sea of snow-white insects.
In this scene, not to mention ordinary soldiers, even the elites in the mobile team showed fear.
"Shoot them all. I have seen many of these bugs in Bergon. As long as the suppression force is enough, they will run away on their own initiative."
In the mobile team, a soldier shouted, finalizing the action for those who had not yet made a choice between fighting or escaping behind others.
When confused about choices, people will always rely on other people's choices. What's more, every warrior here is more willing to choose fight than escape, especially a fight with clear information and results.
A fire blockade was quickly established. Whether it was worms on the trees or on the ground, dozens of worms were paid for every meter they advanced. But within the time of the soldier's words, the distance between them and the team had been shortened.
More than ten meters. Dozens of worms will die per meter, and hundreds of worms will die at most at a distance of more than ten meters. This number is less than one-tenth of the total number of worms in this batch. It is far from the level that requires escape.
Seeing that the swarm of worms on the ground had arrived in front of them, and the position above their heads was about to be covered. Knowing that they could not escape, several soldiers threw away their guns and replaced them with short knives. After the swarm of worms approached the body, both in terms of sensitivity and accidental injuries,
, a short knife is a better choice than a gun, and at the same time, it is also the worst choice to give up human advantages and fight for life with beasts.
Without giving humans any more time to prepare, the moment a few warriors took out their daggers, an overwhelming sea of insects had already arrived.
The warrior who had just screamed saw a worm that was flying towards his chest and slashed it with his knife. Then, in his rapidly shrinking pupils, the worm actually used the twist of its body to change direction in the air. Quickly and accurately.
The worm cut through its body with a knife. After changing, the worm continued to fall towards the warrior's abdomen, and... successfully reached its destination.
The soldier's eyes couldn't even keep up with the worm's movements, and his brain could only imagine the pain of being stabbed in the abdomen with a knife...
But after the pain in this fantasy lasted for several seconds, it still did not overlap with the pain in reality.
When waiting for death, but death does not come, the human brain will always instinctively become slow. I don’t know how long it took, until the roaring cheers came from the ears, the soldier controlled his
Eyes observe the surroundings.
The terrifying sea of worms was quickly retreating from his eyes as if fleeing for its life, and the strange frogs he had just seen were chasing after it. Their speed was much faster than the worms, and with every jump, they would spit out worms like door panels.
The tongue rolled the large piece of worm into the mouth, leaving only a piece of wet saliva after being licked and wiped by their tongue.
The soldier seemed to have realized something and looked down at his abdomen, where there was also wet saliva. After a few seconds, his eyes gradually regained their vitality, and he joined the cheers with all his strength.
He was not only cheering to save his life, nor was he just venting to release the depression just now, but he was also excited about an emotion that he could not understand.
This emotion that he and all the soldiers could not understand was translated into language by Qiu Yu in the team behind him. He explained to Qian Xiao with a faint smile, "This is excitement for the goodwill and hope shown by the world. In
In their original lives, in addition to humans, there were animals such as camels and dogs that showed kindness to humans. But since starting this expedition, the entire world they have seen has turned against them. Every animal is an enemy.
, any life is an opponent that needs to be killed in order to survive. This is a heavy depression that isolates itself from the world. If there were not so many companions, it would have collapsed long ago. But the absence of collapse does not mean that this is the case.
It has no effect on them... Now I see these frogs fighting worms to protect themselves... Although this is not the case, judging from the results, it is indeed a creature that shows kindness to humans, even from the perspective of these warriors
It seems that they are still alien companions who challenge other creatures with themselves. So now, those frogs are the holy angels in their dark hearts."
Qian Xiao looked at those frog-like creatures, and after picturing an angel with a frog face in his mind, he shuddered several times.
"You can understand all this but..." Su Haoden sighed, "I'm afraid before you went to this island, you had already thought of how to play the role of various creatures in a normal ecology, right?"
"No." Qiu Yu shook his head, "Not before this island, but before meeting Qian Xiao on his journey."
Su Hao took a deep breath of air conditioning, "The conditions are all prepared for the expected results. How could you prepare conditions for the current results whose effects and methods are unknown without knowing anything?"
"It's not specially prepared for now. I just prepare the conditions first and then combine them when needed. Besides, this condition must be used in this game."
Su Hao looked at Qiu Yu curiously, "For this reason, you won't arouse my curiosity, right?"
Qiu Yu smiled and shook his head, "This world is no longer the same. Even if we win the game and successfully protect the earth from the clutches of aliens, these creatures already exist on the earth. Human beings have the ability to
Before wiping them all out, you must learn to coexist with them. Although humans will realize this sooner or later, it will inevitably take many detours and pay countless prices. Now let these warriors who are at the forefront of contact with alien creatures and are the most hostile
, if we first realize that not all monsters are enemies, we can let them bring their own thinking back to their respective organizations."
"Do you want them to use the fastest speed to turn some of the creatures that need to be fought into their own help, just like domesticating pigs and dogs, to domesticate alien creatures that help humans survive better... I now deeply understand
Why do some people say that even death will be used as a resource in your hands?" Su Hao paused for a few seconds, "So, in this rescue, you will try your best to discover more usable creatures.
Bar?"
"No need." Qiu Yu's answer once again exceeded Su Hao's expectations, "We are just passers-by. All we can do is give a little push. Then, the world will continue to develop in the direction of our efforts like a perpetual motion machine.
Go down."
Su Haoruo realized something and looked around.
The soldiers beside him were still watching the surroundings vigilantly, but what was revealed in their eyes was no longer the suppressed lifelessness before, but a gaze full of curiosity.
Not far away, a soldier was picking a purple fruit from a tree and smelling it carefully in front of his nose.
In another direction, someone took out a string with sandbags hanging from both ends and kept swinging it, as if trying to catch something.
On the battlefield where the worms were previously fought, several soldiers were surrounding an alien frog that was too full to eat and did not leave immediately, carefully trying to make contact with it.
A vibrant atmosphere is quickly spreading among these teams that were formed based only on material temptations and temporary passion. They have changed from a group of walking zombies who only know destruction and death, to pioneering new territories for mankind.
Explorer.
When Su Hao was also infected and turned his head in a relaxed mood, Qiu Yu had already walked forward more than ten meters.
Facing this back figure that made him increasingly opaque, Su Hao chuckled and murmured, "You are such a magical person..."
