Chapter 87
Ganmaoling didn't have time to check netizens' comments. He was constantly brushing sauce on the black iron worms, then turning them over and continuing to grill them.
The lower right corner of the live broadcast room also said, "The host's behavior is too dangerous, please do not imitate."
Ganmao Ling flipped it over again and quickly roasted the black iron worm. Then the fire-type mutant withdrew his ability. Ganmao Ling also tightly grabbed the shrimp head and pulled out the white meat inside. The fragrance spread in the air, making Ganmao Ling breathe a sigh of relief.
Looking at the white shrimp meat in front of him, Ganmao Ling swallowed his saliva. Other players also took a bite with chopsticks. Ganmao Ling also put the shrimp meat in front of him into his mouth. He didn't know how the Black Iron Zerg felt when they knew that their clan was treated as shrimps?
Anyway, for Ganmao Ling and other players, the taste of the Black Iron Zerg is similar to that of the Shrimp, but it tastes brighter than in reality and the meat is firmer.
While eating Ganmao Ling, he told the audience in the livestream, "This Black Iron Zerg looks like it exercises regularly. Its meat is incredibly firm and juicy, and super delicious."
After listening to Ganmao Ling's words, netizens were silent. After a while, they spoke up:
"Brother is really not afraid of death."
"As expected of the Fourth Calamity, it even eats such a ferocious Zerg."
“I admire you so much!”
What shocked them was that Ganmao Ling did not die after eating the Zerg. This surprised them a little, and soon they thought that Ganmao Ling had some Zerg genes in his body, and maybe that was the reason why he did not die.
This also inspired the people in the Academy of Sciences, and they returned to the laboratory to prepare for experiments.
The players next to Ganmao Ling also felt a tingling sensation in their bodies, as if they had been electrocuted, which made them twitch uncontrollably.
On the other side, the players from Dawn Star also arrived near Aurora Star on a starship. The Zerg were confronting the fleet sent by the government. In the starry sky, most of the mutants could not survive here alone and had to wear mechas.
Now the players have money in their hands, plus there are some RMB players, so currently more than 4,000 players have mechas. They directly enter the mechas and step into the starry sky to fight the Zerg.
The strength of the Zerg and the players is very different, so the players were killed several times, but because they can be resurrected and there are many of them, victory is on their side in the end.
The fleet sent by the government finally arrived at Aurora. After arriving at Aurora, they found that the situation here was extremely serious, and only a small number of humans were left alive.
So many Zergs gathered on a planet, and some Zergs blocked the rescue team. This was a very bad sign, indicating that there were advanced Zergs behind them - the Intelligent Zerg.
The intelligent bug is equivalent to the Zerg's brain and commander. If you think they are just a bug, how smart can they be?
Can they be as smart as today's intelligent races?
If you think so, you are totally wrong. Humanity has suffered several losses in history. The intelligent insect has a vast brain area and strong mental power, which makes it very adept at commanding the Zerg.
The status of the intelligent bugs in the Zerg is also very high. They usually do not appear, so is there anything on Aurora that attracts them?
This made the rescue team a little confused, but the urgency of time did not allow them to think about this problem here. They had received news from Aurora City that there was no water or electricity, and food was in short supply. The energy shield was about to disappear.
Therefore, they had to act quickly. The commander of the rescue fleet said, "This battle requires victory, not defeat. Every Zerg killed will earn you military points. Additionally, all of you warriors who volunteered to help Aurora will also earn points. After the battle, you can exchange these points for items from the Third Legion's arsenal."
The players became excited after hearing the commander's words. The military treasury sounded very grand. The Third Legion was also a relatively powerful legion in the Galactic Empire. There were countless good things in it. How could the players not be excited?
When the starship landed, the players rushed out to fight the Zerg, and blood continued to splash into the air.
Players kept dying and new players kept joining. A sturdy black iron worm the size of an adult man was almost dying after being attacked by several players. Just when it thought it was about to die, several more players joined in. The team of players who had originally besieged the black iron worm shouted: "Don't steal my food!"
"Get out of here." Coconut Bread said that and then inserted his knife into the player's body, killing him directly. This scene made Black Iron Worm feel a little confused. His limited IQ made it impossible for him to understand these behaviors.
The rescue team on the side was also a little confused when they saw the development on the players' side. They didn't expect that they would kill each other because of a black iron bug. The captain of Team 09 immediately realized that they had been controlled by the intelligent bug.
Once the brain is invaded by the intelligent bug, the person will die. So when facing a person controlled by the intelligent bug, the rescue team killed the members of the coconut bread team with tears in their eyes.
This development was not expected by the Coconut Bread Team. They did not expect that they would be killed by the NPC on their own initiative. When the resurrection time came, Team 09 was no longer there, and the Coconut Bread Team had no way to take revenge.
They could only rush to the location of other players. A few of them hid behind and waited for the team of players to be exhausted. Then they rushed up to grab the heads and killed a player.
In the chaos, Coconut Bread found himself killed again by the people from the rescue team.
After being killed twice, several players realized that any player who tried to steal the monster would be killed by the NPC.
Coconut Bread and his companions only had two chances to revive today. They didn't dare to fight for kills anymore, so they had to gather together to kill the Zerg.
The members of Team 08 next to them were also wearing mechas and fighting in the Zerg swarm. The captain of Team 08 was accidentally surrounded by the Zerg. His mecha was smashed, and he had to crawl out of it to fight the Zerg.
Zhou Yu, the captain of Team 08, is the target of the Zerg's siege. The Zerg in front of him is not the previous Black Iron Zerg, but the more powerful Scythe Zerg. They have two sickles in front of them, so they are named Scythe Zerg by humans. The sickles of this type of Zerg are very sharp and can easily cut through human mechas.
It was because Zhou Yu reacted in time that his body was not cut into pieces, but several sickle Zergs besieged him together, which made Zhou Yu's movements more difficult. He carefully dodged their attacks by moving sideways, but his arm was still scratched by the sharp tip of the knife, and his chest and abdomen were covered in blood.
Zhou Yu could feel his physical strength declining and his energy was running dry. The team members around him were also busy with their own affairs and were unable to come to his rescue.
Just when Zhou Yu thought he was about to die, more than ten players rushed up and used their lives to tear a hole for Zhou Yu. This moved Zhou Yu to tears, and he took this opportunity to break out of the siege.
Seeing the heroic figures of the players, Zhou Yu's fighting spirit became more and more high. His supernatural power also broke through at this time, killing all the Zergs that had besieged him before.
The players are still fighting against the Zerg. Their fearless spirit makes the Zerg feel the difficulty of the players. In addition, the current situation is not favorable for them. The Zerg ran away directly, which makes the remaining Zerg on Aurora Star completely unprepared.
Soon these Zergs were slaughtered by the excited players in exchange for their lives.
The rescue team at the scene watched them fight tooth and nail, and their respect grew in their hearts. They couldn't help but think: "They are well-deserved to be the fourth disaster."
With the help of 20,000 players, after a day and a night, the battle finally ended. The entire Aurora Star was in ruins, with Zerg corpses everywhere, and the smell was extremely unpleasant.
On the other side, when various media received the news of the recapture of Aurora, the prepared press releases were released immediately.
[Good news! The battle on Aurora is over! All the Zerg have been killed!]
[The 171st Division of the Third Corps has won!]
Looking at these press releases, the Internet was filled with cheers.
"The people of the Third Legion are awesome!"
"Long live the Third Legion!"
Bai Jin, commander of the 171st Division of the Third Corps, who participated in the rescue, fell silent after reading the press release. Because there was not a single word mentioning the players in it, he directly made a video call to his superiors.
Bai Jin said directly:
"There are other people who have made the greatest contribution this time. Why aren't their names mentioned here?"
"Huh? Who is it?"
Bai Jin pursed her lips and said, "The fourth disaster."
As soon as he finished speaking, the person on the other end of the phone chuckled and said, "Bai Jin, you're such a joke! Everyone knows that the Fourth Calamity is just a joke. What kind of ability can they have? It's for their own good not to mention them, so that they won't be ridiculed by the public again."
Bai Jin became even angrier after hearing his careless words. He said, "With battlefield video evidence, who would laugh at them? They would only think they are heroes!"
"They are brave and fearless heroes, willing to sacrifice themselves. They are truly worthy of being called the Fourth Scourge! Who would laugh at them?"
"Bai Jin, you're just too straightforward. I know what will happen after the video is released, but have you ever thought about my 171st Division? They'll say we're not as good as a small army, and they'll laugh at us."
"They'll think we've brought shame upon the Third Legion."
"You are a soldier, and the most important thing for a soldier is to obey orders, do you understand?"
"I do not understand."
"Bai Jin, your spirit may be in a state of tension due to the battle. I think you need to rest."
"What do you mean?"
“Beep, beep…”
“Beep, beep…”
Bai Jin heard the busy tone on the phone, and soon his adjutant came over, set up the signal blocking device in his room, and then left.
Bai Jin also understood that he was under house arrest, which made him somewhat unwilling.
It was obvious that the credit was not theirs, but they were asked to take all the credit. This made him feel painful. He used to think that the Third Legion was the brightest place, but now his faith collapsed.
Bai Jin sat on the sofa in deep thought, and the players also discovered that all the credit this time was taken by the Third Legion, and all the military work points that had been promised before were gone. The Third Legion's inconsistency made them a little angry.
