Chapter 583 Finding the Insect



Mu Chen smiled slightly when he heard Mingmei ask that question.

Although he was in the form of a thousand-eyed insect and Mingmei couldn't tell he was smiling at the moment, she could still sense his happy mood through the lighthearted laughter in his voice.

"I feel that you're different from the other insects."

As one of the top five insectoids in terms of mental strength, he was naturally able to spot the bright spot at a glance under the mental network of the Thousand-Eyed Insect.

"Really? Why do I seem different?"

"Yes, it's a state that only I can sense."

While the other Zerg were fleeing in panic, only Mingmei kept looking back to see what the warships behind her were doing, and occasionally lost in thought.

This kind of lazy, nonchalant attitude in a survival game, exuding an air of utter nonchalance, is something only Mingmei could pull off.

However, Mu Chen did not intend to say this to Mingmei.

Mingmei felt a little shy upon hearing this, and fearing that the atmosphere would suddenly become awkward, she looked around and realized that she and Mu Chen seemed to have become separated from the main force. She then said, "Judging from this situation, I'm afraid we will be completely wiped out soon if we don't take the lead in a counterattack."

"That's right. Although we played the role of the Zerg, most players still haven't switched their mindset and don't know how to use their advantages to fight back. Their first reaction is to run away first, and exposing their backs to the enemy is the most foolish decision."

Mingmei nodded, the scene of the insects being chased and helpless was still vivid in her mind.

If she hadn't taken an attack for Mu Chen at the last moment, Mingmei wouldn't have had a clear understanding of her abnormal defensive capabilities.

The Black Beetle's defensive capabilities are simply incomparable to those of the ordinary beetles they encounter in the game.

An armor-piercing bullet plus some kind of laser cannon was all it took for Mingmei to run away with Mu Chen in her arms, leaving her back exposed.

When the Zerg and humans were at war, the Black Beetle, especially the high-ranking and above, was regarded by everyone as a Zerg stronghold.

The presence of high-ranking Black Beetles indicates the existence of the Zerg's battle command center or queen in that location.

Therefore, Mingmei felt very fortunate to have gotten such a tough character in this game.

“However, I think…” Mingmei thought about the students’ reactions earlier and said, “I think they might not even be able to accept becoming Zerg and then having to slaughter their ‘comrades’ and die.”

This is not impossible.

Mingmei had previously heard complaints, dissatisfaction, and even disgust from people regarding her role.

Then think back to when she first came in. Due to an accident, that major, who was a step behind someone else, became a Zerg and even tried to attack her, who was also a Zerg. Who knows if he was just offering himself up for death?

Once someone intentionally feeds another kill, they'll do it again.

Mingmei sighed as she spoke and asked, "What if there's really no one left in the end? What do you think we'll do then?"

"Do you want to fight? I'll fight alongside you." Mu Chen could tell from Mingmei's bright tone that she had other plans.

“If we’re going to fight, we should at least find another one. My only problem is my high defense; I’m really not good at fighting.” As soon as Mingmei finished speaking, Mu Chen chimed in, “Let’s find someone we know first.”

As for who the acquaintance was, Mingmei instinctively thought of Lu Xiaoyao, but others could also be considered.

After all, she didn't know what kind of insect Lu Xiaoyao had become.

"Can you find any other insects now?"

"Hmm, I can sense it a little bit, but my mental network is too large and dry. I remember that the military's combat starships seem to have the function of capturing the Zerg's mental energy and locating the Zerg."

Mu Chen had attended these kinds of courses and even did some research afterward. In response, Xianyu Mingmei asked, "Hey, is what Mu Chen said true?"

Yes, some do. The new generation of battleships all have this function, but not all legions have updated their battleships.

You mean the Sixth Legion might not be...?

[No, didn't I hear that the deputy commander of the Sixth Army Corps smashed up the finance minister's office?]

Mingmei: ...

Without Gui Gui needing to say anything more, Ming Mei knew that the person who wrecked the office wouldn't leave empty-handed.

"Let's look for someone first."

Having decided to find their teammates before fighting, the two followed the mental fluctuations of their Zerg companions that Mu Chen sensed. However, they didn't expect to find a large-scale "kindergarten" argument scene.

Bright and beautiful: =、=?

Can someone tell her what's going on with the two Starfire Insects spraying each other with "saliva"?

The Starfire Insect's body fluids are extremely hot, corrosive, and toxic. Any one of the three types released would be a force to be reckoned with. But now—?

Is this all you're doing, just arguing with each other?

"you……"

Before Mingmei could even speak, she had already figured out who the two people in front of her were!

"Aaaaaah! You bastard! You've harmed your comrades! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!!"

As Lu Xiaoyao shouted, she attacked the guy who was even bigger than herself. She was so angry that she didn't even have time to react to who this guy was!

"Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!"

Actually, the Starfire Insect makes no sound when it sprays its body fluid. Mingmei remembers learning this from videos when she was in school, and later encountered the same thing in the game.

However, when Lu Xiaoyao spit it out, her original voice was unrestricted, and she even added her own voiceover for this performance.

Not only was Mingmei speechless, but Waldo, who was venting his anger by attacking Lu Xiaoyao, also caught the urge to spit, and then—"I spit!!!"

Now, Mingmei recognized who this person was.

Besides Waldo, who would dare to attack their own comrades for no reason?

"Are they alright?"

Mu Chen was stunned by the "Pui pui pui" and "I spit!!" sound effects for a long time before he came back to his senses. Seeing Ming Mei standing there so calmly, he asked out of curiosity.

"Ah, it wouldn't be surprising if either of them did it."

At this moment, Mingmei's expression was obscured by her dark, insect-like body, but her tone was full of helplessness.

"This is Major Waldo, the one from our starship who persuaded us to play. He probably knew the inside story, which is why he reacted quickly. Even so, he was a step too slow in character selection and ended up as a bug. Doesn't that mean he can't afford to play?"

"Who can't take a beating?!"

Waldo wasn't unaware of Mingmei and Muchen's arrival, but the Starfire Worm that kept spitting at him was so annoying that he couldn't help but keep spitting at Lu Xiaoyao.

However, he overheard the entire conversation between Mingmei and Muchen.

"This is the nature of the Starfire Insect! One zone cannot contain two insects! Bah!! I'll spit you to death!"

"Pah! I didn't even move two steps! You barged in, and you're not even going to talk back? Pah, pah, pah—"

Hearing the other party's sudden sophistry, Lu Xiaoyao also saw two insects flying in from not far away. Before she could ask who they were, Lu Xiaoyao shouted along with Waldo's sophistry.

Now, Mingmei was even more certain.

These two haven't even graduated from kindergarten yet!
