Chapter 151 Chapter 151 The woman in the khaki trench coat...
"Beep, beep—"
The sound of a telegraph came to my ears.
The little robot held the 127 communicator tightly in its hand and walked around the empty mountaintop a few times. After confirming the direction, it carefully clamped the communicator on the inside of its chest, turned back with a stern expression, and waved to its two "companions".
Companion No. 1 is a small bionic pet in the shape of an octopus.
It crawled over to the little robot, its head making a buzzing sound.
Octopus: "Strange, that direction should be the nest of giant sickle insects. Why is Tao Ying staying in the nest of low-level insects?"
"She didn't go into the rift to study the giant cockroach, did she?"
The octopus said doubtfully, and its tentacles swung flexibly, twisting into an "8" shape.
The third person in the team, the blond young man, took a step forward. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, he kicked the mechanical bionic octopus away as he moved forward.
The octopus rolled down the hill and bumped into the little robot's leg.
The little robot looked down and kicked it back without hesitation.
octopus:"……"
"You two are kicking me like a ball?"
"You deserve it."
Although the three of them were traveling together, they didn't look at each other when they spoke. Their relationship was very strange, and there was always a tense atmosphere between their words.
It can be said that if they did not have the same purpose, they would probably start fighting in the next second.
I don’t know why.
"Beep-beep."
Soon, a signal came from the communicator again, and the sound was much clearer.
They were getting closer to their target.
The little robot said worriedly, "Why is Xiaoying always silent and only sending messages? Is it because the environment she is in is unsafe?"
"Or maybe she's already dead, and some other creature found her communicator."
The blond young man stared into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking. After a moment, he turned the dagger in his hand and inserted it accurately between the two tentacles of the red octopus. His green pupils looked at the octopus coldly.
"Is she really still alive?"
"Of course," the octopus swung its tentacles. "If you don't believe me, why did you enter the rift? Did you come in specifically to commit suicide with Tao Ying, just like Ye Xinghui?"
The little robot and the blond young man fell silent at the same time, then clenched their fists with stiff expressions.
"I'm different from him."
Octopus: “…” What are you competing for at this time?
The octopus scratched his chin and snorted with a laugh.
"But anyway, I knew Tao Ying much earlier than you did. She wasn't called that name back then."
“…”
What are you competing for?
The blond young man said no more, pulled over a processed giant sickle corpse, put it into the energy tank, and then climbed onto the battle-scarred mecha.
After the prompt sound of "Biological energy replenishment completed" was heard, the mecha began to move slowly.
The little robot walked forward holding the communicator.
The three companions have a common goal - to find Tao Ying and bring her home.
The octopus nodded.
"The signal is close at hand."
"I'll know who's on the other end of the 127 communicator right away."
·
The gray-brown unidentified plant was one meter high, barely hiding Tao Ying's figure.
She moved on all fours, alternating between them, and crawled swiftly across the night ground.
The planet was not big, and the terminator was right in front of them. Tao Ying half ran and half flew, chasing from night to dusk, and soon reached his destination.
In front of me is a tree that is a hundred meters high.
Due to the limited perspective of the giant sickle, Tao Ying had difficulty seeing things high up. She was used to controlling her surroundings, so she subconsciously wanted to climb up the tree roots.
But when her long tentacles just touched the tree, she retracted them as if she had been electrocuted.
…
Tao Ying looked at the "tree" thoughtfully.
It seems that it is better not to climb for the time being and meet up with teammates first.
The signal was nearby. Tao Ying pulled the communicator tied to his leg and confirmed the other party's location again.
I don't know why, but I felt a chill down my spine.
The communicator, which had just been carrying Ye Xinghui's voice, was now silent, and the grass was rustling in the wind.
Dusk was approaching and the light was gradually fading.
Tao Ying's tentacles twitched twice.
Why do I have this ominous feeling...
She only gave the communicator to four people, three from the Space Ghost Team and one with Ye Xinghui.
Lin Biege and the others are still students, so it is unlikely that they can enter the rift. Even if they want to, they will probably be stopped.
The only one who would come to see her was Xiaoye.
…
Is that right?
Ye Xinghui should be the only one on the other end of the communicator, right?
…
Suddenly, a subtle creaking sound was heard behind him. Even though he had not been in human society for several years, Tao Ying immediately recognized what the sound meant.
Gears turn, energy cores burn, and weapons clang.
It is a mecha, and a sentient mecha.
She hadn't seen the products of human society for almost five years, and now she felt like she was home.
Tao Ying felt warm in her heart.
She twisted her huge body and crawled forward openly, but because of her species, she inexplicably had a sense of stealth that was unique to the Blattodea.
She approached the mecha and carefully identified the model.
Red paint scheme, familiar body shape, it should be the Minghuo from Iowa Technology.
...Wait, Minghuo.
Why would the person who came to see her drive Iowa's mecha?
Tao Ying suspiciously released a little bit of mental power to test the mecha.
A faint breath emanated from the mecha's mental power module. Tao Ying realized who was inside and opened his eyes wide.
Yuris Iowa?
Why is this person here?
Before Tao Ying could figure out how this person got out of prison, she suddenly heard the sound of breaking through the air, followed by a scorching heat.
An attack came from behind!
She jumped away quickly, enduring the burning sensation to check the injury, and found that her spread light-colored membranous wings were cut in half from the middle.
On the other side, the mecha's fierce blade was raised high, and the part of her wing that was cut off was burning and soon turned into ashes.
...It's already obvious who did it.
Inside the mecha, Yuris observed a moment of silence and looked up with a cold expression.
"You're the one who took Tao Ying's communicator, right? I'm going to kill you to avenge her."
As Yuris spoke, he raised the Fierce Blade again, obviously mistaking the Tao Ying (Giant Scythe Version) in front of him for a real Zerg and wanted to kill her.
Tao Ying: “…”
Could you please find out the truth of the matter before taking any action, General, please go to jail.
Although Tao Ying's body has no pain nerves, it will still twitch when attacked from the outside, which is not very comfortable.
I originally wanted to discuss cooperation temporarily, but now it seems I'd better just beat him up.
Tao Ying chuckled.
After five years as a giant scythe, she still wasn't used to this body, but treating it as a mecha that imitated the giant scythe's form made it much smoother to operate.
(Go ahead, Scythe.)
Tao Ying used her hard shell to meet the enemy. As the fierce blade slid down, she turned her head, opened her mouth wide, and bit off two of Minghuo's fingers.
Jumping into the cockpit, he started to chew violently.
Because they were close to the cockpit, the Admiral's mental power was even closer.
Tao Ying heard a certain general say in a low voice:
"I've been looking for her for five years."
"This communicator is the last clue..."
Tao Ying: "Dududududu! (Then just lie down and take the beating!)"
In a corner where no one paid attention, the octopus squatted behind a tree without moving.
It squinted its eyes and observed the spectacular sci-fi scene of the giant sickle dismantling the mecha with its bare hands for a while, then said to Tao Ying leisurely:
"S, how did you turn into a giant cockroach? This species doesn't quite suit your taste."
When Tao Ying heard the familiar voice, she turned around suddenly and found that in addition to Ye Xinghui and Yuris, there was actually a third person here.
How many people are using this communicator?
Although this person appears to be just an octopus, this familiar spiritual power...
Tao Ying chewed half of Minghuo's head in his mouth and swallowed it. His shell trembled slightly, and he was obviously shocked to the extreme.
(Mobius, why are you here?)
Mobius: "The universe is boring without you, nemesis. That's why I came to find you too."
(Don’t you have your own life?)
The scene was in chaos. Yuris seemed to be still saying something, "I knew it was the Zerg that stole Tao Ying's communicator." Ye Xinghui took out a handful of handheld cannonballs from somewhere and fired at Yuris's cockpit. It seemed like they had been holding a grudge for a long time.
Ye Xinghui: "Yuris, don't even think about letting Xiaoying die again."
He spoke in a firm tone, blocking Tao Ying (the giant sickle version) behind him, which was more than ten times larger than it.
But when he turned around, the boy instantly changed his mask and said in a gentle tone: "Xiaoying, leave it to me this time. Even if you are a cockroach, I will stand on the same side with you."
Tao Ying: “…”
Do you want to listen to what you are saying?
"How touching," Mobius curled up next to Tao Ying and interjected, "Then you guys will be in charge of the fight, and S and I will be the referees."
Ye Xinghui and Yuris actually started fighting.
Are robots carrying cannons fighting mechas?
A very beautiful sunset, a very melodious grassland.
Very neurotic human beings.
Tao Ying has experienced a long life and encountered many outrageous things.
But it will probably be hard to see a scene like today again.
A well-shaped shape appeared above Tao Ying's head.
Then two, then three.
A moment later, the angry telegraphic sound of a giant sickle rang out across the endless grassland.
"So why on earth did the three of you show up at the same time?"
·
The three of them were finally tired of fighting.
To be precise, both of them were beaten up by Tao Ying.
Tao Ying, with half of his wings drooping, faced Yuris, who finally understood everything, and gave him a hard kick on the butt. He then turned around, tied Mobius's tentacles into a knot, put them in a jar, and threw them ten meters away.
"You two better be quiet."
After dealing with them, Tao Ying shook his hands in disgust, then stuffed the communicator back into the shell, walked to the tree he had just been to, and groped his way up.
A moment later, Tao Ying jumped to the ground with something that looked like a branch in his mouth.
Mobius rolled over quickly, crawled out of the can, looked at the "branch" in Tao Ying's hand, and suddenly realized.
Mobius: "As expected, I knew there was a reason why you stayed in the hive for so long."
Yuris quickly grasped the key point: "What do you mean by the reason for staying here? Did you enter the rift on purpose?"
Ye Xinghui touched Tao Ying's tentacles worriedly: "Is everything okay?"
"Beep, beep."
(It’s okay, just stand back.)
Tao Ying pointed her front paw in front of them, indicating that they should not come near, as she was now getting down to business.
After pulling out of the safe area, Tao Ying found a piece of burnt land and inserted the branch into the ground with great force.
Then he gently placed his forehead against the hole.
In an instant, an incomparable energy exploded from the giant sickle's body.
"Is this... mental power?" "3S mental power!"
The unstoppable mental storm blew the mecha several meters away.
In the center of the storm, the giant sickle's body gradually lost its vitality.
Tao Ying's soul and body became separated.
Unobservable soul particles gathered together in clusters, and then re-formed into human form like golden fireflies.
It was like a miracle from the gods, or like four-dimensional creatures who had experienced a long life were playing a game.
After the fire died down.
The woman in the khaki trench coat stood here again.
The wind still blew, making the corners of her clothes rustle. Her eyes were firm and gentle, just like the days and nights she had spent at Laiji Institute.
As she died, as she was born.
The wind stopped.
The woman smiled calmly and snapped her fingers at the giant tree.
"Come, Heartworm, use your ancient wisdom and tell me the locations of all the gall nests."
