Chapter 406 Leaving the Capital Planet (10)
After hearing what Gray said, Qin Jiyou stopped talking and silently turned to the side. "Go directly to the Eighth Team."
"Yes!" Gray collected his thoughts and began to contact the commander of the Eighth Squadron, asking them to send their location.
Qin Jiyou no longer responded to Mu Qingxin's message. He closed his eyes and dispersed his mental power. On the surface, there was nothing unusual. He then let his mental power seep deeper and deeper into the ground...
Suddenly, Qin Jiyou discovered that two thousand meters underground, there was a large pile of insect eggs. Some of them had already hatched and were drilling around bit by bit...
Qin Jiyou's face darkened. The Zerg had actually placed their eggs underground. When did they do that? And how did they do it? Furthermore, how many planets in the interstellar space were covered in Zerg eggs?
Qin Jiyou lowered his head and told Mu Qingxin about the situation here.
"I've arrived at the border planet and discovered a lot of Zerg eggs underground. Some have already hatched and are drilling upwards. I wonder how many other planets in the interstellar space have the same situation..."
Mu Qingxin was feeling sullen, but when she saw the message from Qin Jiyou, she immediately put aside her unpleasant thoughts and turned serious. There were also insect eggs on the border planet, so...
Just thinking about it makes me feel cold. The Zerg are really omnipresent creatures. They even lay their eggs underground.
Mu Qingxin told Qin Jiyu to be careful and walked out of the lounge. As soon as she walked out of the lounge, she heard a noise outside.
"Oh my God, what kind of monster is this!"
"Is it the Zerg? It's the Zerg..."
"Oh my god, this is so scary..."
Mu Qingxin spread out her mental power and immediately discovered two familiar mental powers. Mu Qingxin was extremely excited and immediately ran out quickly.
"Xinxin, where are you going?" Dongfang Ling saw Mu Qingxin run out of the lounge with her sharp eyes.
Grandpa Ou also looked over, and then looked out the window, and saw Mu Qingxin going towards the group of researchers.
"What is Xinxin going to do?" Shui Huanlan looked nervously at the two monster-like people among the group of researchers outside.
There was a group of researchers outside, but these researchers went directly to the tail of the cabin. Due to the secrecy of the research project, they were not allowed to contact people. Among this group of researchers, there were two strange people. Their exposed skin was covered with dark green lines, and their bodies were much taller than normal people, making them very conspicuous in the crowd.
When they heard people's discussion, the two men did not look up to pay attention. They just walked forward with their heads down. The researchers were also very gentle to them and kept comforting them.
Mu Qingxin ran to their side, looked at the two people, stopped uncertainly, and called softly, "Ko...Kora...Thomas..."
When the two strange men heard the sound, they immediately stopped and looked towards Mu Qingxin.
When Mu Qingxin saw their faces clearly, tears instantly flowed down her face. She looked at them in disbelief and walked over step by step with heavy steps.
Those two people were indeed Cora and Thomas. Although their faces were also covered with green lines, Mu Qingxin still recognized them at a glance. At the same time, she felt very guilty. Why did they become like this?
"Xin...Xinxin..." When Korra saw Mu Qingxin, surprise flashed in her heart and she walked towards her.
The researchers nearby also stopped and looked at Cora and Thomas nervously. Although they were stable now, they were afraid that something unusual might happen again when they got emotionally excited.
"Cora, Thomas, you...you..." Mu Qingxin held Cora's hand tightly, looked up at their bodies, and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Korra and Thomas were overjoyed to see Mu Qingxin. After all these years, they were still able to see their friend. Although they had only spent a short time together, it was precisely that brief time that had helped them overcome their pain and helplessness. They fantasized that one day they would be able to experience life like that again and fight alongside their companions...
Korra looked at Mu Qingxin and smiled, "Xinxin, you've grown taller!"
Mu Qingxin smiled with tears in her eyes, "Yes, I have grown taller, but I still have to look up at you..." Mu Qingxin said, suppressing the heartache.
"You guys..." Mu Qingxin wanted to ask, but she was afraid that they would be sad, so she didn't want to mention it and didn't ask.
Korra and Thomas smiled gently and said, "We've been on the capital planet all these years. My family tricked me into returning home, and Thomas came with me. When we got home, we discovered that everyone in our family had been assimilated by the Zerg. We were also attacked by the Zerg, and Zerg eggs were implanted in our bodies. We hid in the basement, fighting the Zerg within us..."
In just a few words, Korra recounted their experiences over the years. She spoke calmly and composedly, but Mu Qingxin knew the dangers and difficulties involved.
Fighting against the Zerg within her body, and being constantly studied and experimented upon by researchers... all of this was beyond her imagination...
"Kora!" Mu Qingxin couldn't help but throw herself into Kora's arms. Kora also hugged Mu Qingxin tightly and patted her back gently. "Why are you crying? We have defeated the Zerg in our bodies now. They have fallen into a deep sleep. We are living a good life now. The people in the institute are also very good to us. Don't be sad. Really, we are lucky not to be devoured by the Zerg..."
Hearing this, Mu Qingxin hugged Korra even tighter, closed her eyes, and used her mental power to check Korra's body. She found that there was a lot of green inside Korra's body, and in her heart, a group of dark green Zerg were sleeping there, motionless. But the Zerg were in the heart, and the originally bright red blood was infected with green after passing through the heart. The blood circulated again and again, and the color changed again and again. She didn't know how long it could last. If it continued like this, when the blood turned green... would Korra become a Zerg?
"It's getting late, we should board the ship." A researcher came over and reminded.
Hearing this, Thomas walked over to Cora and patted her shoulder gently.
Korra reluctantly let go of Mu Qingxin. Mu Qingxin withdrew from Korra's arms with red eyes, looking at Korra and Thomas, "It's okay, we will be on the same ship from now on. I can come to see you anytime. Lingling and Lanlan are here too. The three of us will come to chat with you. It's been thirteen years and everyone has changed a lot. We will tell you about it then..."
