As soon as Mu Chen finished speaking, a dazzling white light shot straight towards the starship beside him from Su Bo's chest. The starship's defense system was destroyed by Mu Chen before it could even be activated.
Mingmei couldn't help but glance at the blown-up starship as she watched Mu Chen's expression remain unchanged from beginning to end.
"70 points."
Mu Chen slowly recounted the results of the battle. Because killing one Zerg would earn him seven points in subsidies, Mu Chen's actions meant that a total of ten Zerg were ambushed on that mech.
Ten insectoids transformed into humans.
This scene is bright and beautiful.
She and Mu Chen had met in "Dawn of Blood and Fire." It was because of this insect that a fortress was destroyed, and his brother investigated it for more than ten years. When he returned, he brought this insect race, which had never been noticed by anyone, into the public eye.
I never expected that the random Zerg role-playing in this game would come up with so many different characters; it's impossible to guard against them!
In reality, various identity verifications of this Zerg are required on various important occasions, and regular physical and mental examinations are also mandatory.
In this game, it would be terrifying if no one realized that identity verification was necessary.
The crew of this starship were probably careless and accidentally encountered some "players" outside, so much so that by the time Mingmei and the others arrived, the entire starship had become a "ghost starship".
She was already quite surprised when she and Mu Chen first encountered this starship and discovered that the people inside might not be human.
Mingmei shook her head. If it weren't for her recent improvement in mental strength, which allowed her to detect the slight abnormal mental fluctuations on this starship, she would have been affected as well.
"Yes, it's practically impossible to guard against," Mingmei sighed.
She initially thought the starship was just hiding Zerg, but with the help of her mental powers and Gui Gui's probing, she was able to confirm that there were no living people inside.
"Most people in this world are suspicious, even in the legion, there are far more soldiers who specialize in physical enhancement than those who specialize in mental power."
Mu Chen's opinion was essentially affirmed by Mingmei.
Under normal circumstances, people wouldn't casually use their own mental fluctuations to sense whether another person's mental fluctuations are abnormal.
Fortunately, this hidden Zerg is not the kind that reproduces multiple times a year, has two offspring every three years, and has endless offspring over a hundred years; otherwise, humanity would be unable to cope with it.
"I can't even imagine how devastated the players on this starship must have been when they first boarded the ship disguised as human players, then realized they'd been tricked, and only realized what had happened after they died."
Through Su Bo's visual system, Mingmei gazed at the starship wreckage that was getting farther and farther away from them. The weapons on Mu Chen's mecha were indeed very powerful, but under normal circumstances, they would not be able to penetrate and blow up the mecha with a single shot.
If the other party hadn't failed to activate their defense system... Thinking of this, he silently withdrew his gaze.
The defense systems on a starship are usually always on by default.
That's why, when Mingmei and Mu Chen encountered this ghost starship, she subconsciously felt something was wrong.
This could also have been done by a player who died beforehand, so that others could notice something was wrong.
But now, no one has told them any of this.
Given the size of this starship, just as they were surprised when they encountered it before, there were probably a hundred or so players inside.
But as she and Mu Chen gradually confirmed that only the Zerg remained inside, their mood sank.
The initial hundred or so players playing as soldiers were all gone.
The ratio of humans to Zerg was already one to one, and now they've lost a hundred. The crucial point is that we don't know how many of these incidents have occurred.
If a few more players like this come along, what will they play this game for?
Were we played by the Zerg?
So, after discovering the truth, Mingmei and Muchen tacitly put on a show in front of the insectoids—#My Good-natured Boyfriend and My Spoiled Girlfriend#.
Mu Chen immediately pretended to be a gentle, good-natured, and academically excellent sheltered young man.
The key is that there are such cool mechs!
Judging from the fact that they didn't recognize the mechs or themselves, Mu Chen knew that this starship was not the school they had previously been in contact with.
Then they discovered that there seemed to be Zerg on the starship, so they gradually began to put their acting skills to use.
Mu Chen looked like the kind of person who could be easily coaxed onto the starship, while Ming Mei was grumbling and complaining, refusing to go on board no matter what, and being very picky.
To avoid ruining his girlfriend's image, the overly nice boyfriend would say something like, "She's just socially awkward," a statement that's obviously full of flaws.
The two's fishing tactics really got several Zerg players itching to try their luck!
While talking to the other party, Mu Chen also specifically instructed Ming Mei to use her mental power to investigate the situation inside the starship. After confirming that there were indeed no living people inside, Ming Mei took over Mu Chen's words and told him to focus on operating the mecha.
After using Mingmei's sarcastic remarks to draw the other party's attention away, she gave Mu Chen the opportunity to launch an unexpected attack!
"Let's head towards Lu Xiaoyao and the others. Let's not take too many detours; look how far we've already gone, and look at all the trouble we've encountered..."
Think about what happened to them along the way. They either encountered old silver coins lying in wait for them, or they encountered "ghost starships" that had been wiped out before them.
Mingmei felt that if they didn't take a look soon, Lu Xiaoyao and the others might also be gone.
