Chapter 146 Chapter 146 Gall insect pheromones.
"Xiaoying?" "Boss!"
Without any warning, Tao Ying rushed out.
Hengwo's color is originally extremely black and deep, and with the special stealth coating on the surface, it is like a shadow in the night, difficult to capture, and at this moment it is almost hidden in the darkness of the universe.
It's like traveling in a no-man's land.
The sparse starlight sets off the moonlight, and the eternal gods are running wildly in the silence.
I was holding a five-meter-high metal can in my arms, but my movements were extremely light.
The black mecha continued to penetrate the Zerg's defenses. Whenever everyone thought the mecha would be stopped, Tao Ying would find a tiny flaw that no one had noticed, then quickly seize and defeat it, and continue to move forward.
She is purposeful and unstoppable.
Not keen on fighting.
The Zerg came in layers, like waves, and she stirred up even more turbulent and dangerous waves in the sea of Zerg.
Everyone looked towards the center of the swarm in surprise.
"What is she going to do?"
Soon, Tao Ying arrived at a place that no one else could catch up with and it was impossible for others to reach.
Her current location is one kilometer away from the S-level insect queen.
Too close.
The danger is extreme.
The big, orange cat in Irina's arms seemed to sense something and twisted uneasily.
It meowed twice at my mecha.
Because of the competition, Tao Ying entrusted the cats and dogs at home to Irina for care. Today, she came to the Leimen Monitoring Center to help out temporarily, and she brought both of them with her.
Irina's arm was injured, and she could only stuff the heavy bread into Ye Xinghui's arms.
The big bread returned to its familiar embrace, then curled up into a ball and remained quiet for a while.
Only the tail was still twitching slightly.
Like a sign of about to explode.
It's impossible that it can understand the current situation and is worried about its owner.
Irina shook her head and turned to look at Tao Ying, who was still advancing. Her expression was serious: "Is she planning to challenge the Worm Queen alone?"
Ye Xinghui shook his head and decisively denied this speculation.
"No, Xiaoying wouldn't do something so foolhardy. She must have other plans."
Tao Ying's sudden retreat was probably due to her foreseeing danger, or perhaps she was planning to create it. But whatever she was planning, sneaking into the insect swarm alone was beyond imagination.
Most importantly, why not tell your teammates about the plan?
…
Ye Xinghui felt something was not good.
From the very beginning, Litiana stared at Tao Ying's direction with a focused look, as if she was confirming something.
Looking again, Anderson's expression was also very calm, as if he knew what Tao Ying was doing.
They knew about Tao Ying's plan.
If even outsiders can know, why not tell him?
Ye Xinghui became more and more suspicious, and finally he reached into the network with his slender fingertips and tapped it like a piano key.
He wanted to ask Tao Ying directly.
A silver-white mental force split the network like lightning and flowed towards Hengwo, trying to communicate with Tao Ying.
The two people's mental powers seemed to come into contact.
But Tao Ying did not respond.
The silvery-white electron stream was bounced off countless times.
[Testing connection signal, current MR network delay, 30...50...112ms, average delay 60ms.]
【The network connection is normal.】
[Trying to connect again...No response from the other party.]
In the mental network, only an empty echo remained.
Ye Xinghui's heart suddenly started beating very fast.
He had no heart and no heartbeat, but this palpitation seemed to be engraved in his soul.
Tao Ying did not respond.
Just like the ten years when she was gone, every night Ye Xinghui would send out signals to look for her, and then face the empty universe, without any response.
Those days were too cold and too scary.
If it happens a second time...
Ye Xinghui calmed himself down and stood up straight.
No, it can't happen a second time.
He intuitively felt that Tao Ying's behavior was related to the jar. Remembering that this batch of supplies was sent by Turantis, he turned around and asked Anderson.
"What's in the jar?"
Seeing that Anderson did not answer, Ye Xinghui strode forward and asked again.
"What's in it?"
His voice echoed in the hall, pretending to be very thorough.
The bionic man's body was so heavy that it almost made a hole in the floor. For a moment, the Leimen Monitoring Center was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
After a moment, Litiana broke the silence.
She paused. "It's pheromones."
Ye Xinghui was stunned for a moment: "Pheromone?"
Litiana tapped her elbows, seeming hesitant about whether to answer, but Ye Xinghui had already noticed what she meant.
It's the Zerg's pheromone.
If it needs to be sealed so tightly, if it needs to be brought to the center of the insect swarm...
How could he not know what that was?
That was the poison that had accompanied Ye Xinghui throughout his life and had killed countless humans.
Ye Xinghui: "Gall...it's the pheromone of the gall, right?"
Lytiana didn't answer.
The electricity bill at the Lemen Monitoring Center seemed to be soaring again, until the explosion bar flashed red.
The director raised his hand in confusion. "Well, can someone explain to me what gall pheromones are?"
"Is there anything special about it?"
Ye Xinghui was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "The pheromones of gall worms are aggressive to the human nervous system and can destroy the human body. It's a terminal illness."
"Can't be treated?"
Litiana: "There is currently no cure. It causes great pain to the patient, and most people infected die within a year."
Litiana said this and glanced in the direction of Ye Xinghui.
"It's simply a biological weapon."
The director remembered that the bottle of pheromones was shipped from Chester Star, and suddenly felt a little scared.
"It's so powerful. Did Tao Ying bring this thing to the center of the insect swarm to infect the insect queen and kill her? Isn't the effect a little too slow..."
"No, this thing has a completely different effect on the Zerg. Remember the red tide that erupted on Fuwa in the Second Galaxy?"
Irina remembered that Tao Ying had also said this, and at this moment her mind seemed to be struck by lightning. She pointed at the screen with trembling hands and her lips trembled.
"The gall's pheromones attract Zerg."
"That bastard is planning to lure all the Zerg to the same place..."
·
It is still fifty meters away from the S-level insect mother.
Although Tao Ying's movements in operating the mecha were perfect, it was impossible for him to remain completely unscathed when facing a large number of insect attacks.
It’s really amazing to be alive.
Hengwo's armor was covered with scars, and one of his mechanical arms was missing. It was bitten off when he was trying to escape from the siege of several Zergs.
The swarm of insects around him was ready to move, and Tao Ying looked down at the tentacle monster.
Yes, glanced down.
It seemed that due to excessive mental pressure, she merged with the tentacle monster.
So the picture she saw now was this - Sylvia's neck, connected to her waist, and a head was trying to squeeze into her body on her waist.
Like some space alien, a head grew out of her lower abdomen... Even Tao Ying found the scene a bit scary.
It also defies gravity.
In this case, does the wide-brimmed hat have to be welded to the head?
Tao Ying pulled Sylvia's hat outwards, but it didn't move. She wrinkled her nose and knocked on the back of Sylvia's head with one hand, making a loud bang.
Tao Ying: "Can you please come out? It's scary to have a head on your waist."
Sylvia shook her head and said disapprovingly, "If you can't get out, try another method. Put away your mental defense so we can merge again."
"Get out." "Put it away." "Don't give a dead person so many opinions."
The atmosphere between Tao Ying and Sylvia was deadlocked for three seconds, and finally the Insect Mother shifted her attention to Hengwo and fell silent.
Forget it, whether they merge or not, they will naturally return to oneness in the end.
Don’t worry about this for now.
Tao Ying took one last look at the message sent by the Heart-Eating Bug. After confirming her target, she subconsciously raised her hand and pushed the brim of her non-existent hat.
Then he raised the corners of his lips, and his black eyes showed a bit of seriousness.
"Let's go."
·
The S-class eight-legged spider lay on the asteroid, rubbing its body.
Its abdomen kept twisting, trying to get rid of the dragging egg case - some of the gall larvae broke out of the shell, and white worms crawled out of the water on its back and began to gnaw on it.
The parasite makes the S-level insect queen become manic, and her combat power increases significantly.
The blood-red eyes embedded in the head are small and bulging, making people's spine tingle.
The Insect Queen looked at Tao Ying with a sinister look, as if she was thinking about how to tear the mecha apart in order to dissipate some of her anger and pain.
Tao Ying seemed unaware of the danger and continued moving forward.
The fuel gas port of the mecha drew several smooth waveforms, and she shook off the rolling swarms of insects and moved towards the center of the rift.
The worker insects that kept pouring in consumed a lot of their energy and were about to be torn to pieces by the swarm of insects.
Tao Ying suddenly jumped out a few steps, stepped on the insect corpse, and spun a few times.
Swing the cable wherever possible.
The ice hammer flew out in a certain direction.
The hammer, which had been covered with pulp by the Zerg corpse, made a dull sound, and everyone could see clearly now - the ice hammer was hitting the Zerg Queen's head straight.
The insect mother's eight eyes were not in vain. She had already noticed Tao Ying's movements and quickly pulled the worker insects around her to block the attack.
The ice hammer pierced through the insect corpse with a whoosh sound. The cable swayed slightly, and the ice hammer seemed to stop. The scattered insect corpses blocked everything that happened behind it.
Everyone held their breath and watched the insect corpse float away.
A moment later, the insect mother's head began to shake angrily.
The sharp fangs flashed a cold light and pierced the ice hammer.
The ice hammer, which was originally not small, looked like a toy when inserted into the huge claws.
It has to be said that the attack did not cause any harm to the insect queen, but only increased its anger.
Plus a little sarcasm.
But... the ice hammer was deeply stuck in its fangs.
Not only that, with its violent movements, the ice hammer got stuck tighter.
Tao Ying tilted her head and looked at the Insect Mother, with a faint smile appearing at the corner of her eyes.
This is what I've been waiting for.
The floating cable was tightened by Tao Ying, and my mecha bounced out instantly.
The oncoming impact kept hitting her body, and Tao Ying felt a little pain in her chest bones. She coughed twice and pressed a delicate part with one hand. The outer shell of the metal can flew apart, and a small cube half a meter square popped out from inside.
It contains the pheromones of gall insects.
The moment Hengwo landed in front of the S-class insect mother, his fangs pierced its left leg. Tao Ying did not stop, but quickly slammed the block into the insect mother's body along the channel of its mouthparts.
The left hand did not forget to use fire to burn the egg case on its abdomen.
The movements were done in one go, as if they had been rehearsed countless times in the brain beforehand.
Everyone was worried, but now they saw the insect queen was confused by the pheromones, and the insect swarm seemed to notice the insect queen's confusion. They all moved closer to the insect queen and stopped attacking. They finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, now we just have to find a way to throw that insect queen back into the rift... Wait, why is Tao Ying heading towards Fuwa Star?"
"No, this is not the direction of Fuwa Star, this is..." Fan Dong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"The thirteenth beacon rift." Ji Yi replied in a low voice.
"It seems our director is very ambitious. She's not only focused on this battlefield, but also wants to lure away the Zerg from other rifts."
