Seeing this incredible scene, the faces of all the members of the Dawn Team turned very ugly.
Psychic weapons have always been the basis of their combat and an extension of their own will and soul. They use these weapons to protect themselves, the Federation, and humanity, but they never imagined that one day these weapons would become nourishment for the enemy.
After Sheng Zhang swallowed Zhou Qing's giant sickle, his face became noticeably redder.
He stood up, brushed off the non-existent dust on his body, and smiled gently at all the members of the Dawn Team. His eyes flickered with undisguised greed.
"Aren't you going to continue fighting?" He licked his lips gently, the tip of his tongue red. "I think your mental powers are quite delicious. Those shields, hypnosis, and your silk thread, Jonson, I've been coveting them for a long time."
"Do you know what your spiritual power looks like in my eyes?"
Sheng Zhang looked at them with a smile. It was not as if he was looking at a group of people, but at a table that had just been filled with sumptuous dishes.
He raised his slender hand and pointed at Han Tianming: "Yours is a lush violet. It smells so good, just like the sea of flowers on the First Star."
"But you haven't actually been to the First Planet much, right? How amazing! A child who grew up on a desolate planet has such a sweet spiritual power."
Han Tianming's brows suddenly furrowed, his lips were bitten tightly by her, and his face flushed with shame and anger.
"As for you," Sheng Zhang pointed at Weng Wei again, "your spiritual power is like freshly baked bread, carrying the rich aroma of wheat and milk. It's spiritual power extended for protection. This kind of thought is truly precious."
He took a deep breath, sighed, and turned to Gu Qiongsheng.
The dark blue eyes kept flashing, and a light of curiosity and excitement danced in the pupils.
"And you, Gu Qiongsheng, your spiritual power is like the sun rising in the morning."
"Does sunlight have a smell? Or is it the scent of morning breeze and dew? I don't know, but I think it must be a very, very warm smell. Come, let me taste it."
As he spoke, Sheng Zhang opened his arms and walked towards the members of the Dawn Team step by step.
Their steps were relaxed and steady, their smiles were gentle and bright. It was like meeting old friends after a long separation. I wanted to give them a deep hug.
But Zhou Qing and others just felt a chill all over their bodies, and couldn't help shivering, and got goose bumps all over their bodies.
They covered their arms and couldn't help but retreat step by step, wanting to get farther and farther away from the baby-faced young man in front of them.
Although only a dozen minutes had passed, in their eyes, Sheng Zhang had become a demon-like and terrifying existence that was no less than the Insect Mother.
...Not only is it scary, it's even more disgusting.
It's a thousand times more disgusting than the rotten and smelly pus-filled pustules on the insect mother's body.
"……grass!"
Han Tianming rubbed his arms hard, turning the backs of his hands red.
Although she had no contact with Sheng Zhang, just by meeting the young man's greedy eyes, she inexplicably felt as if she was unclean.
This feeling made her feel extremely angry. She wanted to tear the guy in front of her into pieces and dig out those evil eyes.
But she was helpless against the opponent's ability. She could only grit her teeth in anger and mutter under her breath: "How can we fight this? Captain, you must think of a solution!"
Gu Qiongsheng held her hand and comforted her, "It's okay, don't worry, I'm here."
"Don't listen to his nonsense. He also has mental powers. He was just trying to use his words and mental power to influence you—just like your hypnosis."
At the same time, a healing skill lit up on everyone, as warm as dry sunlight.
After a sip of milk, Han Tianming's emotions gradually calmed down.
Gu Qiongsheng raised his head, looked at Sheng Zhang coldly, and whispered, "This guy has special abilities, and they're related to his mental strength. I guessed that a long time ago."
Hearing her say this, everyone, including Sheng Zhang, suddenly raised their heads.
"His abilities complement those of the Worm Mother," Gu Qiongsheng said. "You've all seen that the Worm Mother has the ability to dissolve matter and regenerate it."
"The Zerg's evolutionary speed has always been remarkable. It was this ability that first allowed the Silent Bugs to emerge so quickly on the battlefield, blocking the Federation's advanced weaponry and causing great losses to the coalition forces. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of the Psychic Warriors, the Federation would have been razed to the ground long ago."
"Think about it. When facing the Federation's Star Destroyer Cannon, the Zerg Queen was able to quickly create Silent Zergs to turn the tide. So, when facing Psychic Warriors, why wouldn't it try to cultivate a new type of Zerg that can restrain Psychic Warriors?"
As he spoke, Gu Qiongsheng raised his chin and nodded at Sheng Zhang from a distance.
"As for this guy, he must be a monster created by the Worm Queen under those circumstances."
"Think about that ugly spider. It's parasitic on the human body. Isn't that also a manifestation of devouring spiritual power?"
"But I guess he didn't have such a strong devouring ability before. It must have grown so rapidly after he gained the power of the Worm Queen."
"And this guy isn't nearly as strong as he says. Just now, your hypnosis, my silk thread, and Weng Wei's shield all sealed him in place, but he only absorbed Zhou Qing's mental energy. Why didn't he devour all of our mental energy and enjoy a gluttonous feast like he said?"
"Don't you want to?" Gu Qiongsheng narrowed his eyes slightly, a cold light flashing in his eyes, "Or... he simply can't do it?"
The clear voice was as pleasant as a bell, echoing across the vast battlefield, mellow and resounding.
Sheng Zhang's eyes turned cold instantly.
The smile on his face was a little stiff, but he still forced himself to look at Gu Qiongsheng and others: "...What makes you say that?"
"Then go ahead and eat. Why are you being so polite?"
Gu Qiongsheng's tone grew increasingly cold and hard, and he waved his hand fiercely: "Come on, keep fighting. Don't worry, he actually wants to eat, so let him eat his fill!"
Before she finished her words, she clenched her right fist and pulled hard in the air!
Darkness enveloped him, and his vision was blurred. Sheng Zhang suddenly looked back, only to find that transparent silk threads had been spread all around him without him noticing.
The other end of the silk thread was held in Gu Qiongsheng's hand. As her slender and delicate fingers pulled hard, the pulling sensation made the silk thread tighten in an instant, turning into thousands of sharp blades that cut through space, layer upon layer, and strangled him in the face!
Sheng Zhang raised his right arm to block in front of him. The silk thread passed through his open palm, leaving a deep bloody mark. In an instant, the white flesh rolled up, and half blue and half red sticky blood spurted out, dyeing the entire palm a strange blue-purple color.
At the same time, the silk threads cutting towards him were quickly melted and turned into steaming water vapor.
...But the number of threads is simply too much.
If an ordinary person’s spiritual power is devoured, not only will his vitality be seriously damaged, but he will at least fall into a brief state of stagnation, feeling powerless and weak.
But Gu Qiongsheng didn't care at all, he raised his hand and threw a shot of milk to himself. The thread was thin and narrow, and the consumption of mental power was limited. Now it was boosted by the healing spell, and the mental power that was swallowed up was replenished before he could react!
The threads rained down like rain, hurling themselves at Sheng Zhang with even greater ferocity. The young man struggled to maneuver, desperately dodging, but was still inevitably cut by the threads. His exposed skin was quickly covered in wounds, and blood flowed profusely.
What made his situation even more difficult was that at the moment Gu Qiongsheng launched the attack, Zhou Qing and others also cheered up and launched another attack.
No one was scared away by Sheng Zhang's words, even Zhou Qing, whose mental power had just been devoured. Her face was pale, with beads of sweat oozing from her forehead, but she still looked determined and clenched the giant sickle in her hand again.
The pitch-black sickle slashed through the night, like the Grim Reaper taking off his dark hood, revealing the white bones hidden beneath. The corners of his lips curled up, and murderous intent pounced on him.
"call out!"
This time, the tip of the giant sickle brushed past Sheng Zhang's face, splashing a streak of blood.
Sheng Zhang suddenly covered his right ear, looking shocked and angry - if he hadn't reacted quickly, quickly twisted his spine, bent his neck, and dodged the attack in a posture that no human could achieve, the giant sickle might have cut his head instead of his ear.
The scene of the young man being injured, when seen by others, gave them a great boost of confidence.
"He really can't devour the spiritual energy of multiple people at the same time!" Han Tianming shouted loudly, "I knew it, how powerful can a stinky bug who changed his career halfway be? I'll see if I can't kill you with my sword!"
Sheng Zhang, covered in blood, raised his head.
He was in a disheveled state, his expression complicated and ferocious. After a moment, as if he had finally made up his mind, he scratched his right arm with his left fingernail.
More blood flowed out.
But this time, the blood was completely dark blue, with a little fluorescence in it, flashing as it fell to the ground.
Seeing the fluorescent light clearly, Gu Qiongsheng's pupils suddenly shrank.
"Be careful!" she shouted. "Back off, don't go over there!"
Han Tianming, Weng Wei and the others were about to attack Sheng Zhang. When they heard Gu Qiongsheng's obstruction, they were slightly stunned, but their bodies still followed inertia and rushed forward. In the blink of an eye, they were at Sheng Zhang's side.
Spots of fluorescent light instantly jumped onto them.
When he looked closer, Han Tianming was shocked to find that what was flowing in the other person's blood was not fluorescent light, but a group of tiny human-faced spiders!
This batch of spider worms were bred in Sheng Zhang's flesh and blood, and were stronger than any they had seen before. Almost the moment the worms touched their skin, they felt a strong sense of invasion drilling into their bodies, penetrating deep into their bones, and opening their bloody mouths towards their defenseless souls.
The severe pain came instantly.
The two couldn't hold on any longer and almost cried out in pain. Fortunately, the next second, Gu Qiongsheng's voice came from behind, with a reassuring power: "Holy Light!"
A purifying flash appeared, bouncing between the crowd, removing the negative effects from them.
The distance was too close, and the light also fell on Sheng Zhang.
The movement of cutting his arm suddenly stopped, his back shivered violently, and the veins on his forehead bulged.
"Hiss, it's just like the legend, it really hurts..."
Sheng Zhang took a deep breath and looked up at Gu Qiongsheng in the distance.
But besides fear, there were deeper emotional fluctuations in his eyes. His dark blue pupils flickered, reflecting a glimmer of greed and desire.
"You are the only one in the world who can restrain my mental power."
Sheng Zhang murmured a few more words, but his eyes did not shift and remained fixed on Gu Qiongsheng.
Suddenly, his eyes flashed a few times, and the Zerg around him suddenly turned around as if receiving an order, and pounced towards Gu Qiongsheng fiercely.
The Zerg's pupils also changed, from their previous scarlet yellow to a strange, dark blue. As if they had gained some kind of bonus, their movement speed was much faster than before, and in the blink of an eye, they had enveloped Gu Qiongsheng layer by layer.
"Don't worry, Gu Qiongsheng, I won't kill you."
Sheng Zhang's voice drifted from a distance: "Your ability is very interesting. In fact, I have always felt that you are very suitable to be a worm mother."
"Why, wouldn't it be better for us to conquer the entire universe together, rather than being a weak, short-lived human, a queen of insects, above all others?"
His teammates were distracted, and he himself was trapped in a sea of insects, the situation was extremely critical. But Gu Qiongsheng's expression remained firm, without any change.
She turned a deaf ear to Sheng Zhang's attempts to win him over, and only whispered, "Have you ever considered that there are actually more than just these few of us who landed on the Great Sally System?"
"Where have the others been and what have they been doing for so long?"
Sheng Zhang was slightly stunned.
"Those ugly spiders, are they your last resort?"
Gu Qiongsheng raised his hand and brushed the messy long hair behind his ears. The corners of his lips curled slightly, and ripples appeared in his amber eyes.
"Now, you can feel the back-up plan I've prepared!"
The moment the words fell, countless sparks suddenly fell from the sky!
The flames streaked across the sky, slicing through the night sky like a burning meteor, lighting up the entire sky in an instant.
"Bang--!!!"
There was a loud explosion and flames everywhere.
The Zerg were blown to pieces by the sudden missiles. Screams were heard from all directions, blood was flowing, and broken limbs were rolling everywhere.
The sea of insects suffered heavy damage again!
