Cattail Fly (10)
A green thread, no less powerful than a steel knife, surged into the underground space, carrying a frantic and angry aura as it fiercely stabbed towards Jun Xiaoyi.
The premonition of extreme danger made Jun Xiaoyi's hair stand on end. He decisively pushed Shi Jianxia in front of him and leaned his back against the star core to avoid being strangled by the unknown enemy.
The crazy green silk thread suddenly froze in the air, and for a moment it didn't know what to do.
Xia Wei was seen with her head hanging down, blood soaking her clothes, large patches of blood blooming, and she looked lifeless. The mimics crowded in the underground space also disappeared one by one, as if their owners' hearts had been crushed and they were unable to support their existence.
Tick! Tick!
The blood fell to the ground, making a crisp echo in the extreme silence.
Jun Xiaoyi seemed to realize something from the reaction of the green silk thread, and the corners of his lips curled up, revealing a wild and wanton smile.
But before he could do anything, his face suddenly twitched violently, and a pain that could crush his soul burst out from the depths of his mind. He let out a scream and his body trembled violently.
When he lifted Xia up to block her in front of him, she fell to the ground and opened her starry eyes from under her falling hair.
Jun Xiaoyi covered his head in pain and rolled on the ground like a madman. Strands of red light flowed out from his body, like blood being drawn out, weird and terrifying.
Shi Jianxia covered his chest and slowly stood up, his eyes sweeping across the magnificent and mysterious star core inconspicuously.
The energy vortex that was dissipating outside the star core has disappeared, and Gonggong successfully swallowed up the SS-level insect vortex.
Jun Xiaoyi said before that if he moved the star core away, he would be able to regain his strength.
From this, it can be inferred that the SS-level worm vortex is closely related to him. The star core not only blocks the worm vortex, but also the source of his power.
The vortex disappeared, and even if he didn't die, he would be skinned alive.
Unfortunately, the little fox lost his life again.
What’s even more regrettable is that she didn’t have the chance to swallow the sixth star core.
puff!
Shi Jianxia saw blood gushing out of his mouth, his legs went weak, and he was about to fall back to the ground.
The green silk thread suspended in the air reacted, spinning rapidly and converging into a human figure.
A strong and powerful arm went around Shi Jianxia's lower back and easily lifted her up. The surging green energy covered her wounds and infused them with powerful healing power.
Shi Jianxia blinked, his eyes slowly moved upwards, and he saw a perfect jawline and an ugly fang mask.
He looks familiar, but I can't remember who he is.
The embrace was also very warm, as if it could protect her from all wind and rain.
Shi Jianxia Wei closed her eyes, feeling her heart gradually being healed, and whispered, "Don't kill him."
She had a subtle premonition in her heart, as if as long as she said this, the masked man would spare Jun Xiaoyi's life.
No response.
The green silk thread flew out again, wrapping around the sixth star core floating in the air and disappeared.

Number Four and Number Thirteen were still rushing in when they saw Lord Feiyi, who ignored everyone and even threatened to glare at them if they said one more word, walking out from the depths of the passage with the weak Number Seven in his arms.
Number Thirteen's breath caught.
Has Number Seven, the two-faced and sinister villain, won the favor of Lord Feiyi again?
Number Four thought to himself, “As expected.”
As cunning as No. 7 is, he always manages to complete the task before them.
Shi Jianxia sensed the sudden appearance of two auras, raised his eyes vaguely, and then closed them again as if ignoring them.
Number Four & Number Thirteen: "..."
We saw it! We all saw it! This guy must be pretending again!
Fortunately, Number Four had extraordinary composure and didn't lose his composure over such a small matter. He said rationally, "Master Feiyi, the star core..."
Number One didn't say anything, but nodded slightly.
Number Four breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as we get the star core, it will be fine. The doctor has given a death order for this mission. We must get the star core. If there are any accidents like disappearance or robbery again, they will all be beheaded.
He tactfully stepped aside and pulled over No. 13, who was standing next to him, so that No. 1 could walk ahead first.
Number One naturally didn't hesitate and strode out with Shi Jianxia in his arms.
Not long after they walked out, Number One suddenly stopped. His action made Number Four and Number Thirteen alert at the same time.
Number One turned around, and a mechanical electronic voice came from under the mask, "There's an ambush outside. Take her away first."
Number Four reacted quickly, stepped forward, and stretched out his hands to take the pale-faced Shi Jianxia.
Number One glanced at Number Four's arms and did not immediately hand Shi Jianxia to him. Instead, he took out a black cloak from his space bracelet and wrapped her tightly, then reluctantly put her in Number Four's arms.
Number Four could sense his disdain, and the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, but he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction. He became more and more curious about how Number Seven had won the favor of Lord Fei Yi.
In terms of appearance, she is indeed good-looking, but now with the realistic mask on, her face looks completely ordinary. To be honest, No. 7's appearance is not as stunning as No. 5.
In terms of strength, her current combat power is definitely at the bottom among the Jade Card holders.
While thinking, No. 4 suddenly remembered that for this mission, the doctor actually only sent him and No. 13 to assist No. 7. After Lord Feiyi heard about this, he took the initiative to ask to participate in the mission.
Perhaps Lord Feiyi's initiative to participate in this mission is related to Number Seven.
Before this, Number Four had never met the famous Lord Feiyi, and among the other holders of the Jade Token, only Number Two had performed the same mission with him.
Number One is an unknown question mark to them. There are many rumors about him in Higanbana, but no one can explain them clearly.
Number Four was also quite surprised to see him in person. As for why they addressed him as "Sir," Number Two had always addressed him that way, so the others also unconsciously adopted the same term when referring to Number One.
Without thinking too much, No. 4 held Shi Jianxia in his arms, put on an invisibility cloak, and walked into the passage on the other side with No. 13.
Sensing that the gaze behind him had disappeared, Number Thirteen looked unfriendly at Shi Jianxia, who was being held as a tribute by Number Four, and gritted his teeth.
She was knocked hundreds of meters away by the madman, but Lord Feiyi didn't even raise his eyelids. Number Four was even more excessive, and directly poured his own rubbish healing potion on her face.
If it was number seven who got injured, why should he be treated like a boss?
Number Four glanced at her inconspicuously, thinking that this idiot really came from the same laboratory as Number Nine, and her quality was worrying.
He averted his gaze, ignoring Thirteen's gnashing of teeth.
In the darkness, one palm-sized scorpion after another crawled quickly on the ground, digging through the solid rock and soil with their sharp front claws, forcibly opening up a new passage.
Shi Jianxia was held in the arms of Number Four through her cloak. Although it was the same posture and his arms were strong and powerful enough, he did not have the warm and comfortable feeling of being held by Number One. Instead, he felt a cold and fierce feeling that made people's feet cold.
She really wanted to stay away from this breath, but she was almost a level 10 disabled person now. Not to mention walking on her own, her heart and lungs hurt so much with every breath. If it weren't for her reason telling her not to lose consciousness, she really wanted to faint at this moment.
"Number Seven, how did you get in?" After a long silence, Number Thirteen finally couldn't help but ask.
Shi Jianxia glanced at her. The little girl was still in a mess. When she glared at him, her eyes were round and her cheeks were puffed up, a bit like a pufferfish.
Her heart was still repairing, and she felt so painful that she almost suffocated. She couldn't speak, so she just squinted her eyes and ignored her.
Anyway, in her fragmented memories, Number Seven never had a good face towards Number Thirteen. To be more precise, he was too lazy to pay attention to the little brat.
Instead of wasting time on making things difficult for herself, she might as well calm down and take a good look at who was blocking the way outside and who needed Number One to stay and deal with it personally.

At the exit, Zhuang Mingyue looked at Jun Xiaoyi, who was brought out by Gongye Jiwang, and frowned, "How did he get injured like this?"
He was covered in blood, with a bruised face and nose, as if he had been put into a sack and beaten severely. He looked quite miserable.
Gongye Jiwang paused, "When I went in through the passage he mentioned, I saw him lying on the ground like this."
The man was still unconscious and it looked like he was only half dead.
Mu Shaoqi couldn't bear to watch and clicked his tongue, then he fired a shot at Jun Xiaoyi with the blazing white gun in his hand.
A few hours ago, he marked Jun Xiaoyi's current state. The effect of the mimicry talent is still there, and he can reset him to the state when he was marked.
The blazing white bullet penetrated Jun Xiaoyi's brow, and the scars on his body disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, returning to the appearance he had a few hours ago. Even his tattered clothes returned to their original state.
Jun Xiaoyi coughed and supported Gongye Jiwang's arm to stand up. "The cattail fly took advantage of the opportunity and occupied my body. I don't remember what happened exactly."
He lost consciousness after taking away the Star Altar. Later, he vaguely sensed that the cattail fly had attacked Shi Jianxia, but he could not hear what they were saying.
When he regained full control of his body, he felt severe pain all over. The cattail flies that had been fighting with him for control of his body since entering King's Landing seemed to have disappeared, and then Gongye Jiwang brought him out.
As for Shi Jianxia, she seemed to have been taken away.
Jun Xiaoyi's action this time was not rash.
The Zerg Investigation Department discovered that King's Landing was invaded by cattail flies and dispatched a large number of personnel. He was also brought to Zhuang Mingyue.
His situation is very special. He is a parasite and not a parasite.
When humans become parasites, their consciousness will disappear, their bodies will undergo varying degrees of mutation, and they will be completely controlled by the Zerg.
He was different. His consciousness did not disappear, and it reached a delicate balance with the cattail fly's consciousness in his body. It was a symbiosis in a special sense. His consciousness was dominant during the day, and the cattail fly's consciousness was dominant at night.
But as long as they leave King's Landing, whether it is day or night, the cattail fly's consciousness will be suppressed by him.
The cattail fly was trying to assimilate the power of the star core in his body, and he was also trying to devour the power of the cattail fly.
He spent nearly a year under surveillance in the Zerg Investigation Department, and in his spare time, he would be taken by the director of the institute to dissect Zergs.
After the director confirmed that his condition was stable, he was allowed to move freely and reached a cooperative relationship with Zhuang Mingyue.
This time when he returned to Baipu Star, it was Zhuang Mingyue who told him that someone had recently been investigating Junlin City and suspected it was the red spider lily, so he needed to cooperate in a trick.
However, he had other plans outside of this scene, so he deliberately revealed his coming to Baipu Star to Shi Jianxia, wanting to see if she would take any action.
She came as expected.
Seeing Jun Xiaoyi's thoughtful look, Zhuang Mingyue asked, "Didn't we already control it? Why did it suddenly come out again?"
Jun Xiaoyi shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either. He vaguely guessed that it might be related to the cattail fly approaching the SS-level insect vortex.
He did not tell Zhuang Mingyue about Shi Jianxia's affairs.
To be honest, he didn't trust the people from the Zerg Investigation Bureau.
Especially before the incident in King's Landing, his father had brought people from the Zerg Investigation Bureau to King's Landing. He was not sure why his father had any connection with the Zerg Investigation Bureau, nor did he know what kind of contact the two sides had.
But things couldn't be such a coincidence. Not long after the people from the Zerg Investigation Department left, the fact that the Jun family possessed the star core was exposed, and the family was wiped out.
He would not agree to cooperate with Zhuang Mingyue unless he had no other choice.
If Shi Jianxia really had second thoughts about the red spider lily, and he revealed this to Zhuang Mingyue, and the news leaked from the Zerg Investigation Department, he would be killed without a burial place, and Shi Jianxia would also be in danger.
It was his intuition, his intuition told him that Shi Jianxia could be trusted.
Jun Xiaoyi also felt that this reason was a bit absurd, but when the words came to his lips, he would always swallow them back unconsciously, as if he had been bewitched.
The current situation did not allow Zhuang Mingyue to delve into the details of the matter. She asked Dr. Jiang to take Jun Xiaoyi for a physical examination, and then turned to look at the collapsed platform exit.
There was a person standing inside.
-
Number One did not act immediately, but instead pulled Meng Ji, who had almost blended into the environment, out from the shadows in the corner.
Meng Ji was grabbed by the scruff of the neck by fate, his limbs hanging down, and his watery eyes looked pitifully at Number One.
Number One sneered, "What are you staying for? Join in the fun?"
It was still a cold, mechanical electronic voice, but there was an indescribable doting in his words, as if he had raised this little cub himself, and even though he was disobedient, it was never too much to dote on him.
Meng Ji moved his little ears, and his long, fluffy tail formed a heart shape vividly, his intention to please was obvious.
Number One sighed helplessly, wrapped it in his invisibility cloak and placed it on his shoulders, warning: "Stand still. If you fall, I won't pick you up."
Meng Ji quickly tightened his claws and nodded his head obediently.
It is very strong and its claws are sharp enough, but No. 1's clothes seem to be made of special materials and are very resistant to scratching.
Seeing that it was well-behaved, Number One raised his hand and touched its head, and it rubbed his palm affectionately.
