Chapter 166 A "Guest" from Another Region
For players, the advantage of having an army is that they don't have to be on guard all the time and can get a good night's rest.
The downside is that it's difficult to compete with the army for insect crystals, and you can only watch as the insect corpses are dragged away.
In this situation, some players clash with the army, but all are within a controllable range. Other players choose to venture deep into the border, hoping to reap a harvest before the army shells them, so as not to end up with nothing.
Rong Yi and Wei Yanqing chose the latter option.
When the ferocious insects arrived, the continuous bombardment, accompanied by artillery fire, often woke them up in the middle of the night.
In the early morning, Rong Yi smiled and nodded to passersby. As he walked, he straightened his clothes. Compared to the camouflage uniforms around him, their clothes looked like those of civilians who had mistakenly wandered into the army.
From the moment the troops were stationed, they had almost no chance to fire for the first two days. Sometimes they couldn't help but marvel at the destructive power of the artillery fire. Even if one bomb didn't kill them all, it would still destroy a whole area. Even if it destroyed a little bit, it was still a gain.
The two calmly walked out of the encampment and all the way to where the tank formation was parked.
Each tank here has people inside; there are no more ferocious insects attacking, so they continue forward.
The military never interfered with the actions of the two men; as long as it didn't affect the fight against the ferocious insects, this quiet cooperation was the best approach.
Only when the tanks behind them were out of sight did Rong Yi speak: "I didn't expect to set off earlier than planned. The army here is really fierce."
They had previously discussed that if the situation at the border could be handled, they would continue to penetrate deeper until they entered the territory of a neighboring country to hunt down higher-level ferocious insects.
Wei Yanqing rolled up his sleeves. "After all, it's a superpower, so its military strength is naturally top-notch."
As the saying goes, "When the cannons roar, gold flows like water," and only countries like this can withstand such pressure.
The two quickened their pace. Rong Yi had been watching the tank formations and fighter jets bombing for two days and was eager to try it himself.
"If we go there and kill the high-level ferocious insects, the pressure on the border will be reduced."
Wei Yanqing smiled and shook his head. They probably couldn't wait to get more high-level ferocious insects. During the defense two days ago, they clearly saw how the middle-aged officer smiled as the cart took away the adult insect corpses.
The South is a humid and hot environment teeming with insects. After being ravaged by swarms of ferocious insects, not only are there no animals, but even insects have vanished.
The continuous forest was crushed by the size of the adult insects, breaking many tree trunks. There were also gnaw marks on the branches, which must have been done by the sub-insects.
·
Two hours later, after killing two waves of ferocious insects, Rong Yi and Wei Yanqing successfully entered the neighboring country's territory.
There may have once been a village here, and it was probably in contact with the domestic border. Now all that can be seen are ruins. The fields that were once planted with rice seedlings have been destroyed beyond recognition, and you can barely make out their original outlines.
The rice seedlings and grass had been gnawed by gnawed insects, leaving only a few scattered patches of green, and mud was splattered everywhere.
Rong Yi saw a swarm of ferocious insects three or four kilometers away on the detection interface, but it would take them some time to get there.
“There are ferocious insects approaching,” Wei Yanqing said.
Regardless of whether Rong Yi could always detect it, he reported it truthfully.
"good."
Rong Yi walked into the collapsed house. The furniture had long been trampled to pieces. She saw a stack of books covered in mud. She wiped away the mud and saw crooked words written on the cover. It was obviously a child's textbook.
Within minutes, the swarm of ferocious insects arrived, drawn by the scent.
Seeing the seven- or eight-meter-tall ferocious insects, dragging their massive bodies forward "steadily," Rong Yi frowned: "There are only two of us, and this kind of ferocious insect has already appeared?"
That doesn't make much sense. With such a massive body and sixth-tier strength, the energy required to get here alone is more than what two people could replenish.
Wei Yanqing's eyes deepened, "Although there are only two, they are definitely worth two thousand ordinary people."
They are no ordinary people; the energy contained within their bodies is so high that if the ferocious insects could sense it, they would definitely come here.
Rong Yi wrinkled his nose. "That's true."
After saying that, he swung out the Blazing Molten Blade, which sliced through the air with a scorching heat, and stabbed straight above the mouthparts of the large fat worm, which was its nose. The heat continuously released by this level of weapon quickly destroyed the nose's function and even began to invade the brain.
The large fat worm hissed and commanded the sub-insects to crawl onto its body and help it pull out the dagger.
It can lift its paws, but its brain thinks that it's bad news if its paws touch the dagger.
Immediately afterwards, several sub-insects that obeyed its commands had their claws melted off and fell from its tall body.
Rong Yi ran forward, and Wei Yanqing helped her leap onto the head of the giant fat worm.
The giant fat worm's head was hard and smooth; if a cannonball hit it, it would slip and bounce away. Ignoring the approaching sub-insect, she half-squatted down and patted its head. "Let me see how your head shell compares to that of a fifth-tier adult worm."
He dodged and kicked away several sub-insects, then slid sideways along the curve of his head to his mouthparts, stepping on the hilt of the dagger that had been thrust into him.
The big fat worm shook its head, and she lightly leaped, grabbing the handle with her right hand and floating in the air.
Seeing a person hovering in front of it, the fat worm subconsciously looked up, wanting to swallow this hot and delicious treat.
Rong Yi flipped over and landed back on the giant fat worm's head. A smile played on her lips as she used her right hand to forcefully slice open the smooth outer shell of the worm's head.
The giant fat worm was in pain and tried to shake her off, but Rong Yi clung tightly to the cut edge to steady herself. "You must be able to speak, right? I remember that ferocious worms at this stage can speak."
The adult insect rolls its compound eyes upward in an attempt to see the small-headed "food" that has caused it serious injury, but it can see nothing but the sky.
Seeing that the big fat worm didn't say anything, Rong Yi wondered if it hadn't reached the required level yet.
To her surprise, the ferocious insect stopped shaking, seemingly exerting force throughout its entire body, and then she heard a strange voice say, "Eat...!"
He can speak, but he needs to practice. It's a pity he met her.
Not only Rong Yi heard it, but Wei Yanqing also heard the words spoken by the adult insect. He thought he had misheard. These insects could talk?
Rong Yi: "I will carefully shred your body and feed it to my flesh worms... to eat!"
As she raised the dagger high with both hands and stabbed it at the opening where the giant fat worm had been cut, the fiery shards pierced straight down with her will, until they emerged from the other end of the giant fat worm's head and stuck into the ground, causing the surrounding sub-insects to dare not approach the dagger.
They seem to have a fear of this weapon ingrained in their genes.
The large, fat worm lay flat on the ground, its head slamming down from a great height. Rong Yi leaped down, pulled out the dagger, and put it away.
He gently placed his hand on the dead, fat worm, and the massive worm carcass vanished in the next instant.
Wei Yanqing waved his hand to push aside the swarming ferocious insects, then withdrew his hand, and the heads of these insects were severed. "More than three thousand in total, not bad."
Apart from the sixth-tier adult insect, the rest were all sub-insects, which he could easily deal with with his current strength.
Rong Yi: "Now that there's no army watching, how about feeding them some maggots?"
I had wanted to do this before, but the army arrived quickly, and I was worried that feeding the worms would cause the indigenous people to have bad associations if they saw it, so I only brought it up again now.
