Chapter 427
Hey, you're alive and still getting paid? You're not satisfied in this post-apocalyptic world full of death and danger? What do you want? To fly to the heavens?
However, even if players are tired of fighting the Zerg these days, it doesn't mean they can get used to facing that group of bizarre and disgusting monsters.
Every time I see them acting like insects in human form, I feel... the psychological trauma is bigger than the entire city of Donglin.
That's right, with that young female boss chasing them into the Zerg horde every day, players have almost forgotten that another requirement for clearing the game is finding the location of the parasitic mother.
Previously, they had not found any useful clues in the government building.
Clearly, the officials of Donglin City knew nothing before the disaster struck.
Where do we find the mother insect?
Just as the players remembered this dreaded quest and were racking their brains, their boss informed them to set off to find the Queen Insect.
Hmm? Hmm? Hmm?
When did the little ancestor find the insect mother?
Isn't she obsessed with enslaving them every day?
Wen Xin just wanted to roll her eyes at them.
She was honing their combat skills and awareness.
With powerful figures protecting them and allowing them to train recklessly, how dare they have any objections?
They're living in bliss but don't know how lucky they are!
Xiao Jin: "..."
The master's words were even more pleasing than his singing.
She was clearly just jealous of other people's points, and too lazy to do it herself, so she used these unlucky players as a tool to farm points.
How can she still have the nerve to talk about being so selfless and dedicated?
Wen Xin: Shut up, whose side are you on?
After Wen Xin turned a certain stupid butterfly that could never learn to be smart into a specimen, she swaggered into the residential area with a group of players.
As soon as they stepped into the residential area, countless insectoids suddenly crawled out and blocked their way.
"Their eyes look a little strange."
Mo Xiaoxiao swallowed hard as she spoke to Wen Xin.
Normally, when the Zerg see them, they only see greed and eerie smiles, but this group is full of hostility and murderous intent.
It was as if they were no longer thinking of turning them into one of their own, but rather of tearing them apart as enemies.
Wen Xin told her, "They are the guardians of the insect mother."
The moment the players stepped into this place, it was a provocation to the Zerg guards, and it also threatened the safety of the Zerg queen. It would be strange if they weren't hostile.
Mo Xiaoxiao gasped, so the Insect Queen really was hiding here.
But this isn't a hospital or a research institute, so why would the Insect Queen be hiding in such an ordinary research institute?
Wen Xin: "The truly wise live in seclusion amidst the city, understand?"
Mo Xiaoxiao: "..." I don't want to understand!
"Miss Wen Xin, what... what should we do?"
Wen Xin spoke up matter-of-factly: "What do you mean, what do we do? We'll charge in and kill the queen insect!"
Mo Xiaoxiao: "!!!"
Does the game have this as a mission?
I don't think so?
No, my little ancestor, do you think you can just kill the insect queen like that?
Ahhhh, they're charging at us!
Mo Xiaoxiao was panicking inside, but she reacted quickly and cooperated with the other players to be a qualified insecticide.
This time, Wen Xin didn't just stand by and watch, letting the players charge forward on their own. Instead, she led the way.
Red ropes extended from her sleeves and feet, weaving through the void, tearing through the air, and easily turning the Zerg into a pile of corpses.
The red rope tightened, splattering countless bloodstains that dripped onto the ground.
The scene had a bloody beauty that was both bloody and chilling.
The girl's body hovered in the air, dragging clumps of red ropes, drifting past the swarm of insectoids, like a blood-red evil spirit from some terrifying legend.
Is she...is she really human?
And are they really using a post-apocalyptic survival game?
As the players thought about it with trembling hands, they swiftly and decisively slaughtered the Zerg.
Although the Zerg have abnormal regenerative abilities, they need time to regenerate. As long as you quickly pour flammable and explosive substances on them after killing them and then set them on fire, the parasites will be burned away, and no matter how powerful the Zerg are, they will be useless.
Over this period of time, the players have developed a good teamwork in killing the Zerg, and with Wen Xin leading the way, they quickly wiped out the Zerg Queen's guards.
The girl, whose body was wrapped in red rope, suddenly turned around and instructed them, "Remember to pick up the insect eggs."
Players: "...Okay, boss, got it, boss!"
...
"Whoosh~ Whoa~ Is this a pet store?"
Mo Xiaoxiao was panting heavily.
At this moment, Wen Xin led them to the pet store in the community.
Wen Xin pointed to a small supermarket across from the pet store, "You guys go inside and hide first, we won't need you anymore."
Players: "???"
Is there really such a good thing?
Wait, "Miss Wen, are you going to go in and kill the queen insect yourself?"
Wen Xin: "Mm."
The players remained silent, as if to say: Are you really not going to do any preparation before going in?
That's so reckless, what if... what will happen to them?
Wen Xin seemed to know what they were thinking. The red rope swayed in the wind. "Don't worry, I'm a conscientious businesswoman. I won't let you waste your points. Just don't hold me back."
Players: "...Yes, then please be careful."
The players were disliked by that little devil and sent to the small supermarket.
They skillfully cleaned the supermarket, blocked the doors and windows, and observed through the gaps that the person, like a ghost, floated into the pet store, dragging a red rope.
They watched with bated breath, closely observing what was happening at the pet store.
"Is she really going to be alright?"
“If Miss Wen is so powerful, and she can’t even handle the Queen Insect, then we’re doomed sooner or later.”
In the early stages of a dungeon, the dungeon boss is usually restricted from appearing, but in the last day or two, the boss's strength increases significantly and it becomes impossible to suppress it.
How many players survive the early stages only to be wiped out by the boss at the end?
The players looked at each other, becoming even more uneasy.
"Look, you all!"
A player shouted in a trembling voice, filled with fear.
"The Zerg army!"
The Zerg swarms outside are pouring into the community like crazy.
They surrounded the building across the street so densely that there wasn't a single gap left; the scene was a nightmare for all the players.
"Miss Wen, did you find the Insect Queen? What did you do to her?"
But no one can answer this question.
With so many Zerg, if they come and besiege them, who will survive?
But whether the players are filled with fear or regret, all they can do now is wait.
As darkness fell, more and more insectoids surged into the residential area, piling up like human pyramids and engulfing all the residential buildings across the street. Soon, their side would suffer as well.
People started to panic, and some were already nervously biting their nails and complaining in despair.
Fortunately, the prestige that Wen Xin had left behind was enough to keep most of the players calm, and Mo Xiaoxiao and Wu Wu also worked together to appease everyone.
