Chapter 61 Chapter 61 Hang up the phone, Tang En...
Hang up the phone, Tang En is thinking about whether there is anything he missed during this period.
Tang En asked the team members to send the eliminated people out of the forest as soon as possible because there are still Zergs in the Kessi galaxy. Although there are no Zergs on the planet where they compete, Tang En does not think that such a defensive mentality is harmful.
She eliminated Samuel, and there is no evidence to prove that it was her who pushed it, and the video of the competition committee would not record all their actions so comprehensively. Tang En is not surprised that some people will find out that it was her who did it, because if you want to accomplish something, you can't not take action, and it is impossible not to leave traces. The key is to have no substantial evidence.
...
As for the First Legion.
Tang En yawned.
She didn't want to go.
She didn't want to be controlled by old Campbell because of the new superior-subordinate relationship. As the saying goes, she was rebellious. As for other things, she didn't think it was a good idea to go when Campbell's influence in the First Legion had not recovered. Didn't her father and aunt die after entering the First Legion?
Tang En didn't know the twists and turns in the First Legion because she had no personal experience and only heard about it.
But even if she didn't know much, she knew that the death rate of the Campbell family was too high. Obviously, before this year, the Empire only had to deal with the Zerg.
Old Campbell hoped that she would take over and continue to take over the responsibility of the previous generation to kill blood in the First Legion.
- Sorry, Tang En is not such an emotional person.
Old Campbell is the same.
Tang En rubbed her temples, and she didn't think she would have a bad life if she didn't go to the First Legion.
She wasn't really a freshman in college.
Tang En sat in the chair for a while, turned off the computer interface, and touched her nose.
She got up and walked to the bathroom in the room and opened the door.
Pheromones curled up on the ground, and the smell of pheromones was still emitting.
A tube of O-type inhibitor appeared in Tang En's hand, and she squatted down, "Stretch out your arms."
Because of estrus, Pheromones was very slow to receive information from the outside world, and Tang En's voice sounded like thunder rumbling in the sky to him.
Don repeated, "Put your arms out."
This time, Phaerus finally distinguished Don's voice from the rumbling thunder. Without thinking, he used his soft fingers to untie the straps and buttons of his cuffs. He failed several times in the middle of the process. The straps were not loose enough, or the buttons did not move out of the gap.
Phaerus didn't know whether it was because of the fever or the accumulated anxiety of failures that made him sweat.
But Don was always in front of him, and his posture did not change.
When the team was withdrawing, Don smelled the scent of Phaerus' pheromones, a very light scent that was easy to ignore. It was just a little bit brought out by sweating, which meant that the pheromone level in his body had increased, and it also indicated to the Alpha that the Omega's estrus period was about to come.
Don didn't know when this would happen, and Plasma himself might not know either.
As they got closer and closer to the starship, Plasma also showed some restlessness. But everyone in the car was a little bit, because of the excitement and discomfort of just being away from the competition environment.
Don said directly that he had something to do and took Plasma into his room.
But she did have something to do just now, she had to answer a phone call, and their room was only this big, so Don locked her in the bathroom.
"Snap." Plasma's cufflinks fell off, and he wiped out a section of white forearm.
It seemed that because of the climate in the forest, the skin under his clothes was covered with a cold bluish white. Don't
let his wrist drop and injected the inhibitor into him.
"Did you find it in my luggage?" Phyllus was still a little confused.
"You brought it?" Tang En said, "I brought this one. Your estrus period is really inaccurate."
Phyllus: "..."
Phyllus lay on the ground, and now he just wanted to play dead.
Tang En was a little hesitant, because she also wanted to take a shower as soon as possible, but Phyllus had no strength now, and it seemed a little too inhumane to drive him out like this.
"Senior sister, my...my pheromones have no effect on you?"
Phyllus couldn't get up for a while.
Tang En put away the empty inhibitor and said, "It has a little effect. I have received anti-pheromone training."
Resisting the passive estrus induced by Omeg pheromones is a compulsory course for them. Even if they are not nobles, Alpha students in military academies will have such training in school. Otherwise, when they go to the battlefield and the enemy sends an Omega in estrus or a pheromone bomb, the whole army will be wiped out.
Tang En looked at him and said, "If you want to be on the battlefield in the future, you need to solve this problem."
It was unclear whether Pheros relaxed or lost his strength.
Pheros opened his mouth and took a breath.
In the first eight years of his life, he had to be pushed forward because he was an Omega. Sometimes he also thought that his life would be better if he was not an Omega. For example, if he differentiates into A, he may become the leader of the gang smoothly, but the worst result is that he will enter the black market; if he differentiates into B, he may become an unknown member of the gang, and he may be packed into the red market because of his outstanding appearance.
Now may be the most relaxed day in his life as an Omega.
"What will happen if I remove the gland." Felix looked up at Tang En, his eyes were full of confusion and pain.
Felix did not have gender recognition disorder. He always knew that he was an Omega, but he thought countless times about what would happen if he was not an O.
At least he didn't have to endure the estrus period and didn't have to worry about when the pheromones would be exposed.
"......" Tang En paused, "It will shorten your life."
The gland is an important organ for the body to secrete hormones. If it is removed, it will not turn into Beta, but will cause hormone disorder and require long-term hormone medication.
Phylum covered his face helplessly and said, "I don't want to die."
He staggered to his feet. Tang En watched his movements. Phylum was walking towards the door.
Tang En thought for a moment and sprayed deodorant on him.
Felus: "Senior sister, can you mark me?"
After the Omega is marked, the A's pheromone will scare other As away from the Omega, so that even if his estrus period is unstable or untimely, there will be no problem.
Tang En put the deodorant back in place.
Felus felt that his hands and feet were still a little numb, and the coldness of the forest at night was still warm on his body.
Tang En: "You should think about it more."
He shuddered, turned around, opened the door and walked out, not even caring about Tang En's reaction.
Felus suddenly remembered something.
- His glands have been modified.
Although kissing is still popular as a superficial marking method, which only makes the other person smell like themselves, temporary marking is to bite the gland to inject pheromones, and permanent marking is to form a knot in the reproductive cavity, but the gland is the most common marking method.
Calus has had enough of being controlled by pheromones in the first half of his life, and he will not drag Tang En into it again.
Calus felt that his whole body was shivering uncontrollably, and it seemed that real warmth spread from his toes.
Calus returned to his room, he walked into the bathroom, and took a good shower. Although his body was still a little soft, he felt that he had strength now. This power is very magical, and it has calmed him down now.
- He asked for all this.
Philus thought that things he thought were insignificant before have now become boomerangs stabbing at him.
He could not imagine before that he would trust an A wholeheartedly and would not forcefully mark him during his estrus period. However, when he found that he really did not make the other party waver in front of such a highly compatible object, Philus still felt a little sour.
Tang En is his sister, the one who raised him and took care of him.
He can be himself in front of her, but the only difference is that they are not in a relationship of lovers...
Philus lowered his head and let the water wash over his body.
He suddenly found that after seven days of crawling and rolling in the mountains, his hair had turned gray, and there was mud in the water. Uh... maybe Tang En didn't touch him just now because she thought he was dirty. It wasn't that kind of derogatory tone, or she just simply hated dirt. She probably took care of herself after he left.
Phyllis started to take a shower.
His mood got better with this interruption.
After realizing that he couldn't be with Tang En no matter what, Phyllis relaxed a little.
Past events told him that if he worked hard on other things, he would be rewarded, such as studying hard to go to military school, but love was a bottomless pit. All he got in return was nothing.
Tang En was a good person, and she had made it clear to him. Although what he would get was still "nothing", it would no longer be "illusion".
Chasing someone who he is sure he will never catch gives Plaus a great sense of security.
Although he still has a faint delusion in his heart.
Plaus sometimes can't help but fantasize about being with Tang En, but he knows that such a fantasy is out of reach.
So he just keeps the status quo, he is very happy now.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Tang En was standing in the bathroom.
She was thinking about a question, why does girl A still have breasts? This is a point that confuses her. Of course, because of exercise, she has far more muscles than fat on her chest, which solves part of the problem.
In addition, she can vaguely feel some emotions that do not belong to her - sour and warm.
Tang En usually has almost no emotional fluctuations, so when this emotion that she had not seen for a long time suddenly appeared in her mind, Tang En quickly discovered that it was due to the mental induction brought about by her compatibility with Plaus.
She hasn't had such emotional fluctuations for a long time.
So Tang En stood there for a while, thinking about what Plaus was thinking now.
And whether this emotional fluctuation is good or bad for her.
The answer is that there is no answer.
Emotions are a double-edged sword.
She should probably be happy now that she can observe the world through the changes in another person's emotions. But for 20 years, she has been accustomed to a calm life.
The biggest shock was that she suddenly discovered this fact when she was 10 years old.
Tang En thought about the memories of her previous life. In her previous life, she was a normal person, and her style of doing things was similar to the present. She was always a person who valued reason over emotion.
- That is to say, it had no effect.
Tang En raised her hand and grasped the shower head in the bathroom, stopped the water flow through the sensor, dried herself and went out.
At this moment, Tang En suddenly felt a panic.
She put on her clothes and went out quickly.
The sound of a vase being smashed suddenly rang out in the corridor.
In the corridor.
Calus held a vase mouth with uneven broken edges in his hand, and blood of strange colors flowed from his forehead to his chin.
His eyes were so wet under the reflection of the all-white corridor lights, and there was a hint of murderousness and a hint of thin sharpness in his eyes.
Tang En straightened his collar, returned to the room and pressed the alarm.
When the voice came from the alarm communicator, Tang En said: "In the corridor on the 4th floor of the First Military Academy, an insect parasite has appeared."
"But, can you say it again?"
The voice of the operator who was frightened and stuttered came from the other side of the communicator.
"An insect parasite has appeared in the corridor on the 4th floor," Tang En recalled that the corpse lying at the feet of Phyllus at that time was indeed the parasite she had seen before.
This kind of insect has a long parasitic tube and a soft body, similar to the facehugger that Tang En had seen in the movies of his previous life.
"..."
There was a momentary pause in the voice on the other side.
Tang En finally said, "Don't keep us waiting too long."
She took a laser gun for self-defense, and the moment she went out, she shot the fire alarm in the corridor. The shrill alarm sounded, and it was conservatively estimated that people on the upper and lower floors could hear it.
Cardrus still held the broken vase tightly in his hand. He wiped his face and wondered if the blood on this thing was corrosive? It shouldn't be. His face was hot, just because of the blood.
- What on earth is this thing?
He wanted to throw it at him as soon as he went out.
Cardrus just wanted to go out to find other people, and he didn't have any weapons with him.
If he hadn't been used to finding weapons from the surroundings, after dodging the first attack of the parasite, he would have quickly grabbed the decorative vase on the wall and hammered it to the ground.
The vase also shattered all over the ground.
The swan neck of the vase in the hand of Phaerus has now become a deadly sharp weapon, like the mouth of a broken beer bottle.
Then he hit the thing and it bled.
Tang En said, "Next."
She threw a laser gun to Phaerus.
"This is a parasite from the Zerg Clan. It can parasitize the human body and control the human brain. The advantage of the parasite is that it moves quickly and is concealed. It does not have much attack and defense power. What it throws at you is actually its hunting organ, not its main body."
Tang En had replaced the high-power energy block in the laser gun. At this moment, she used the gun to release a burning line of sight, directly cutting off the thin and long tail of the Zerg Clan parasite that was pretending to be dead on the ground and dividing it into four parts.
"This is the main body that it parasitizes others."
As Tang En moved, the hunting organ of the Zerg Clan parasite instantly turned gray and only had time to twitch twice on the ground. After the main body of the parasite was cut into four parts, it paralyzed on the ground and died completely.
Tang En narrowed his eyes.
The appearance of Don undoubtedly quickly gave Phyllus a backbone. He recovered from his previous panic and confusion only by fighting instinctively.
"Yes. I understand." Phyllus replied.
Don felt the change in Phyllus's mood and confirmed that he was not parasitized.
Everyone in the First Military Academy quickly came out of the room. Iris saw the parasite in the middle of the corridor and her face was very ugly.
"Is this how the competition committee protects students?" Iris said, "The Zerg parasites have run onto the starship. I guess they have no one guarding the entrance these days. It's as leaky as a sieve!"
Her eyes swept over all the team members except Don with a sinister look.
"Everyone should be fine," said Felix, standing up. "I just came from the corridor when I went out."
Although Felix's body was still a little uncomfortable, he was very adaptable to fighting in various discomforts. Adrenaline always gave him strength when he needed it, saving his life again and again.
Iris turned and stared at him.
"I killed the parasitic organ." Tang En said, "Although the Zerg parasites are unlikely to enter our room when everyone is not back, but now when you go back to get your weapons, remember to check it."
The corpse of the Zerg parasite lying on the ground has already explained everything.
After seeing this, Iris also showed a similar expression as Tang En, feeling troubled and difficult.
"The room is equipped with an infrasound system." William said.
"After turning it on, the infrasound can vibrate in the room and kill the Zerg, but people can't stay in it."
"Did you see clearly whether it came from upstairs or downstairs?" Iris suddenly asked Felix.
Felix thought for a moment: "...downstairs."
Although almost no one present, except the third graders, had ever faced the Zerg directly, with Iris and Tang En, they started their work in an orderly manner.
Alicia and the instructors also rushed here.
Compared to Tang En and Iris who were relatively calm, Alicia thought she was still asleep.
"Damn, this bunch of bastards," Alicia cursed twice in a row, "I told you long ago that Kersey is not a good place, letting people come to compete and get free battlefield training soldiers!"
The old swordfish and Louis looked solemn.
"How long has it been dead?" asked the old swordfish.
"About 3 minutes." Tang En replied.
"The mother nest... may be nearby." said the old swordfish.
Although humans can already use tools to travel in the universe, cosmic rays can cause genetic changes. For carbon-based organisms like humans with relatively stable genes, if they are not protected, the probability of genetic mutations in the next generation of children is very high.
This is one of the conjectures about the appearance of the three genders of ABO written in textbooks.
The Zerg are a species that is prone to genetic mutation. Although their bodies - or in other words, their biotechnology has reached the peak, and they can fly in the stars directly, if they leave their mother nest and travel for too long, it will be like humans encountering nuclear radiation, which will completely break their fragile and easily mutated gene chains.
The final result of the broken gene chain is that the whole insect melts into a pool of blood.
This requires a certain process, but often when the Zerg that landed from the universe to the planet are killed, they will basically turn into blood when they die.
Tang En and Iris both understood, so the two of them waited here to observe the appearance of the parasite after death.
Now three minutes have passed, and the parasite's body still retains its original appearance, which is enough to show that after it was created, it has hardly encountered cosmic rays and boarded the starship.
The guard Shanshan of the competition committee arrived late.
Fortunately, as the organizer of the military school league competition, the members are basically people who understand reorganization. Seeing the Zerg corpse lying on the ground, everyone's face changed drastically.
In the main control room, where the news was received, a quarrel broke out.
"Immediately! I said take off immediately!"
The captain of the starship was picked up by the angry chairman of the competition committee and pushed against the wall of the main control room.
The surveillance camera in the main control room also took a clear picture of the Zerg corpse.
"There are Zerg on this planet!"
said the chairman of the competition committee. He now felt that he was doomed.
From the very beginning, when the royal family insisted on setting the venue of the competition in the Kessi galaxy, he felt that if he was not careful, he might step on air and fall into hell.
But in order to keep his position, he chose to obey and came to such a dangerous place.
It would have been good if nothing happened, but now something happened.
It was like roasting him on a rack.
The chairman of the competition committee had a distorted face. He only begged now! He only begged that nothing would happen to the second prince!
Otherwise, he would definitely die!
The captain of the starship was in great pain. She was just a hard-working captain who followed orders all day long, but today she encountered such a big thing.
She hurriedly grabbed the radio microphone beside her, "All passengers, please pay attention, the starship will take off in 10 minutes!"
"F**k, can't you be faster?!"
The starship captain, under the noise of the chairman of the race committee, said again: "Newborn Zerg appeared on the planet, the starship will take off in 10 minutes!"
"Stop making noise, you ***!"
The starship captain couldn't stand it anymore, and slapped the radio to turn off the radio, "Are you driving the starship or me! The engine can't start that quickly, if you can take off within 10 minutes, you do it!!"
The chairman of the race committee was yelled at by the starship captain.
He wiped his face and said: "I won't bother with you now, if someone dies, you just wait."
Among them, they were more or less related to the military academy and the corps. For example, some were former military academy students who had seen Zerg through internships on the battlefield, and some were retired legion soldiers who changed jobs.
Despite this, they had not been on the front line for a long time, and the emotions aroused when they saw the Zerg again were partly timidity and fear, and partly excitement and impulse.
These were all marks left by the shadows of the past.
The guards who came to the 4th floor heard that the Zerg parasites came from downstairs, and they went downstairs immediately.
Iris crossed her arms and watched coldly.
Alicia was furious.
Tang En looked at the old swordfish and instructor Louis.
"The Zerg are not that difficult to deal with, but they are not that easy to deal with either." The old swordfish put his hands behind his back and hunched over.
Today, humans have the ability to build "mobile islands" in space, and can also drag stars from other places to the capital star to serve as artificial satellites.
It is not that difficult to destroy a planet.
Dropping a star-destroying weapon to destroy all life on the planet, humans are only more terrifying than the Zerg in this regard.
But it is difficult to keep a star. We must compete with the Zerg for territory and not let them devour all the vitality of the planet and cause a devastating blow to the planet.
Humans can transform the capital star into a warm spring-like climate all year round, but they lack habitable planets and various resources.
Not to mention that resources are never too few.
Now that they know that the starship is about to take off, they first find a fixed position for themselves and quietly wait for the vibration of takeoff.
The insect nest and the insect queen of the Zerg Tribe are not completely the same, but they almost mean the same thing. The insect queen refers to the commander of all the Zerg spiritual consciousness and the mother of the Zerg tribe. She has the strongest ability to resist cosmic rays among the Zerg tribe, but she moves slowly and has no limbs to protect herself. She is very fragile. The insect nest has lost the ability to move and chooses to settle in one place. She starts to create all kinds of Zerg queens. Because of the limitation of her mental power, her control over the Zerg tribe is also limited.
Since there is a high probability of a insect nest on this planet,
then staying away from it is the best solution.
Ten minutes later, just as the captain of the starship said in the broadcast, the entire starship rose from the starport of the Kersi system, and the starship body rose rapidly, passing through the atmosphere of this beautiful planet.
Tang En frowned and looked out the window.
This planet may never be so lush and green again. With the mother nest here, it would be much more difficult to completely eradicate the Zerg.
Tang En still had some doubts.
- Why didn't they discover that there were Zerg on this planet before?
It takes a certain amount of time for the mother worm to transform into a nest, and during this period, the mother worm needs a lot of energy. Although she has fewer offspring before she turns into a nest, because it requires a huge amount of energy, the worms at this time will do their best to collect energy in order to support their mother. From this
, it can be inferred that this planet is definitely not as beautiful as they saw when they first arrived.
And...
"What's wrong with you?" Iris asked.
Tang En said, "Nothing."
"Are you worried about Samuel? Or do you want to go out to help?" Iris asked, her face full of indifference, "Even if I go to help, the parasites come from below, and I guess they have already suffered."
Tang En even saw a taste of schadenfreude on Iris's face.
