Chapter 058 You Are Right
Jiang He and A looked at each other.
There were now seven prisoners and four guards on the slope, all of them staring fiercely at Jiang He and the other man.
These two people have never jumped into the slime pool to salvage the core. Only the person who got the core can be so calm.
They were constantly attacked and bitten by the larvae in the mucus. The two men must have been very happy in their hearts, wishing that they would be bitten to death by the larvae as soon as possible.
Two bastards, actually want to rob each other, huh!
One of the prisoners wiped the blood from his nose and face, his eyes fixed on Jiang He, and said sinisterly, "Hand over the core, and I'll spare your lives."
Jiang He didn't say anything. It was useless to reason with these people, and it was even more useless to defend himself.
Lan Hu at her feet was still unconscious. She did not retreat. If she retreated, these people would rush over and trample Lan Hu to death or kick him into the pool. But she did not keep her eyes on Lan Hu, so as not to be caught by these people at his weakness.
Before Teacher Song could speak again, Jiang He suddenly rushed forward, took the lead in attacking, and punched the nearest prisoner into the pool of slime.
The larvae in the slime pool have been fighting to the death. The slime is rolling like boiling water. The remains of the larvae are floating in a dense layer on the surface of the slime. Human blood has dyed the transparent slime red.
The moment the prisoner was thrown into the pool of slime, a female insect suddenly jumped out, opened its big mouth and bit the prisoner in half from the waist.
Its body size is five or six times larger than that of the larvae, and its growth rate is comparable to that of blowing up a balloon.
Teacher Song, standing nearby, took a step back and muttered, "It's a new Worm Queen! A new Worm Queen has been born."
Jiang He took a quick glance and saw that the young insect queen did not have blue eyes, but was an enlarged version of a larva.
The birth of a new worm queen means that all other worm queens have been eliminated by it.
Is that blue eye dead too?
There were so many larvae fragments floating on the mucus that it was hard to tell which one belonged to which.
At this moment, a prisoner pounced on her. Jiang He withdrew her gaze and fought with the prisoner.
The slope is quite steep and it is difficult to keep your body steady. If you are not careful, you will fall into the pool of slime.
The newly born insect mother in the pond proudly bit the human limbs and screamed with her head raised.
Falling into a pool of slime now is tantamount to seeking death.
When the prisoner was kicked to the ground by Jiang He, he hugged Jiang He's legs tightly, trying to pull Jiang He into the slime pool with him.
Two guards also rushed over at this time, and their mechanical knives went straight to Jiang He's arms and legs, trying to cut off Jiang He's hands and feet.
Jiang He failed to kick away the prisoner who was holding her legs. The prisoner's eyes were crazy and vicious, "Even if I die today, I will take you with me."
His arms were mechanical components, tightly gripping Jiang He's legs. The mechanical components were severely damaged, but he maintained this posture.
The black dagger in A's hand cut off the heads of the two prisoners. As he turned sideways, the direction of the dagger changed, cutting off the arms of the prisoners who were holding Jiang He's legs, and then he kicked the other's head.
The prisoner screamed and fell into the pool of slime.
Another guard took advantage of the situation and rushed towards A, his hands changing into a trident shape at the same time.
The nail-eating green python scales in Jiang He's hand flew towards the guard and pierced into his neck. At the same time, A put his hands behind his back, shook his wrists, and held the dagger in his backhand and chopped down at the guard's wrists.
The guard's neck was a mechanical component, and the scales got stuck in his neck, failing to cut his neck off completely.
He screamed after his wrists were cut off by A, and two mechanical arms suddenly jumped out from his waist and grabbed A's shoulders.
There was a "crack" sound, and A's shoulder blade was crushed by him.
The most troublesome thing about robots is probably their bodies. You never know when extra mechanical weapons will appear from anywhere and launch a surprise attack.
Jiang He was about to rush over when he saw out of the corner of his eye that a guard was stabbing Lan Hu with a long hook and trying to pull him away.
She subconsciously grabbed the opponent's long groove and kicked him in a spinning manner.
At this moment, Teacher Song's mechanical arm transformed into a spear and stabbed at the guard behind A. The guard's extra mechanical arms on his waist clasped A's shoulders, and A's hands drooped and he was unable to break free in time.
The spear pierced through the guard's abdomen and into A's chest.
After the mechanical spear hit the target, a two-inch-long three-flowered blade stood up on the spear body and rotated rapidly, crushing the opponent's flesh and bones in an instant.
Most of the mechanical components on the researchers were instruments to assist in their research. Since entering the ruins, Teacher Song had been protected by guards like a delicate flower. Everyone assumed that he was a weakling who could only do research, and they had no intention of guarding against him.
What's more, he attacked A without paying any attention to the guards who had been protecting him along the way, and directly attacked A at the expense of his own people.
Jiang He's pupils shrank. After kicking the guard away, he immediately turned around and pulled out the scales on the guard's neck behind A and cut towards the spear.
Teacher Song's spear was still spinning, and the three flower blades on the spear bloomed like flowers in the rapid rotation. It looked beautiful, but its lethality was extremely brutal.
Jiang He's scales fell down and cut off the spear, and her own hand was also cut by the three-flower blade. The high-speed rotating three-flower blade only scratched it once, and blood and flesh flew all over the back of her hand, and even the bones were cut into pieces.
The pain was like a knife cutting, but she didn't stop at all. She swung the scales in her hand and slashed at Teacher Song's head.
"0112, you're different from them." Teacher Song stepped back. "I can give you a chance."
Jiang He said nothing, and the prisoners and guards around him pounced on A and Lan Hu.
In their opinion, the core lies in these three people. Jiang He is being restrained, and the other two are half-dead. This is a good opportunity to recruit them.
Jiang He retreated, grabbed a prisoner's robotic arm and tore it apart, then used it as a long stick to sweep towards the other prisoners.
These people were able to survive to the end, and each of them had some ability. Teacher Song stood on one side and attacked with a spear from time to time.
Jiang He cut off one of his spears, but his neurons were not affected at all. His mental strength must be very strong.
Jiang Hegang kicked the last guard into the slime and grabbed the spear that almost pierced her abdomen.
The three blades on the gun body exploded instantly and spun forward rapidly.
Jiang He used the scales in her other hand to scrape against the gun. Ignoring her bloody hand, she rushed forward and grabbed Teacher Song's neck when his other long sword came towards her. She scraped against the gun with the scales and separated Teacher Song's head.
"0112, you can't get out without me." Teacher Song's head was cut off, but no blood spurted out. His skin was all simulated skin, and the broken part of his neck was a sophisticated mechanical component. He actually transformed his entire body?
But in the federal government, such transformation is illegal, right?
His artificial eye was still moving, looking at Jiang He with approval, "As I expected, you are indeed different from other prisoners. You are very strong. Join forces with me, and I will take you away from Planet A62. I will be the greatest benefactor of your life."
His mouth was talking, like noise.
Jiang He ignored him. She walked a few steps to A, who was still connected to the guard, and carefully cut the spear connecting the two with the scales in her hand.
Teacher Song's mechanical components are made of high-quality materials and cannot be cut off by the guard's mechanical knife. Fortunately, the scales of the nail-eating green python can cut it off.
A was kneeling on the ground without moving. When Jiang He checked his wound, he raised his eyes and met his gaze.
He kept his eyes open, staring at Jiang He, with no emotion in them. Half of his face was pale and bloodless, as delicate as a paper doll.
Jiang He said to him, "It's okay, no internal organs were damaged. I'll go see if they have any medicine. Don't pull out the spear yet."
The wound was bleeding because of the stirring of the Three Flower Blades, but it was better than having a big hole exposed by pulling out the spear.
Jiang He searched the body of the guard lying next to him and Teacher Song thoroughly.
Teacher Song stopped talking and closed the eyes in his head.
Most of the medicines carried by robots are mainly for treating neuronal damage. They have little flesh and blood, so they carry very few hemostatic and healing medicines.
Jiang He sprinkled the hemostatic medicine he had found on A's front and back wounds, and fed him a few pills. Seeing that his eyes were dull and he was still motionless, he put his hand on his chest and paused. His chest was rising and falling normally, and his heartbeat was similar to that of a normal person.
Is he looking like this because he's afraid that the male insect will come in and he won't be able to leave?
Jiang He lowered his head slightly and said to him solemnly: "I will take you out."
A's eyeballs moved. Ever since Teacher Song's spear pierced into his body, he hadn't made any sound. He didn't cry out in pain, nor groan in agony. He was so calm that he seemed to have no sense of pain at all.
"You won't."
He looked at Jiang He with extremely clear eyes, without any complicated emotions, and his purity could be seen at a glance.
His voice was extremely firm, and Jiang He finally understood where his silence came from.
He thought she would abandon him.
Suddenly, there was a sound of a cave collapsing. Jiang He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a big hole appearing at the bottom of the opposite corner of the wall. Male deformed insects swarmed into the cave from it.
The deformed insects are so big that even they can come in. The corridor should be big enough for people to go out. Jiang He untied the belt of one of the guards and tied it around Lan Hu's waist, then grabbed the belt and lifted Lan Hu up, and walked to A again.
A looked shocked and tried to avoid Jiang He: "Don't lift my belt."
Jiang He: "Don't move, don't worry."
She quickly reached out and grabbed A's belt and lifted him up.
Then he slowly added, "I will definitely mention it."
A: …
Lan Hu was in a coma and was unaware that he was being carried like a fruit basket, but A was different, he was awake.
"Let me down, I can walk on my own."
Not only did he have a bloody hole in his chest, but his shoulder blade was also crushed.
Even if your legs are strong enough to run, your upper body will fall apart after a few steps.
Jiang He: "Oh."
The main message is "Received and replied".
She carried the two men in her hands, like a cowherd carrying his two children, and rushed upwards along the wall at a rapid pace.
These deformed insects will definitely surround the insect mother Jiangjiangniangniang, and the males may even pull each other's heads in order to compete for the best position. She has to get as far away from here as possible before a large number of male insects arrive.
The young insect queen was still howling with her head raised. Jiang He had just climbed up a small slope when she heard the sound of wind behind her. She was holding the two people and her reaction was not fast enough. The flying long knife cut a piece of flesh on the side of her thigh.
Jiang He turned his head and faced 7039, who was covered in bloody mucus.
He reached out and wiped the bloody mucus off his face, holding a mechanical knife that he had removed from the corpses.
"Give me the core and I will let you go." 7039 stared at Jiang He. Although the long sword was slightly off and failed to cut off Jiang He's leg, being able to hit the opponent gave him courage.
He raised the mechanical knife in his hand and took a step towards Jiang He. "Iron Fist Tyrant, I don't want to kill you. Give me the core."
Jiang He turned his head slightly to look at him. In terms of strength, 7039 was just average among these prisoners and guards, but this man was very good at taking advantage of opportunities. He could find the best time to maximize his own interests. Being able to take advantage of opportunities itself was a kind of ability.
Seeing Jiang He was about to put the person down, 7039 immediately became alert: "Don't move, or don't blame me for being blind."
He was still quite afraid of Jiang He. This guy was too strong. He looked soft and easy to bully, but in fact, he was a ruthless guy who was particularly good at disguising himself. Even such a strong teacher Song could be split in two by him. He was ridiculously strong.
Fortunately, this guy was mentally ill and found two people to hold him back, which gave him a chance to make the next move.
Jiang He: "Oh."
After saying that, A pulled out the knife stuck in her thigh and threw it at 7039. With great precision, 7039's body was separated and fell into the slime.
Jiang He lowered his head to glance at his bleeding thigh, but did not put the man down to bandage the wound, but continued to rush upwards.
A reminded her: "The wound is bleeding."
Jiang He: "Oh."
She walked quickly, and a long trail of blood flowed behind her.
The first wave of mutated insects rushed in and pounced on the insect mother in the mucus. The mucus was soon filled with densely packed mutated insects, and the number continued to rise.
A glanced at it and said, "It's difficult to jump over it."
There is a horizontal ditch ahead, more than three meters wide.
A: "Put me down."
Jiang He: "Don't move."
Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for her to jump over while carrying two people, but at least she has a mechanical leg now.
At the critical moment, the mechanical legs were a lifesaver. After taking a few steps back to run up, Jiang He's mechanical legs assisted in the bounce and took the two of them to the other side.
It went smoothly, but the ground on the opposite side was not solid. Jiang He landed on it, and the soil under his feet became loose and collapsed.
Before falling, Jiang He threw the two people in his hands to a solid place near the inside.
Below the ravine is a pool of mucus, which is now filled with densely packed deformed insects.
Jiang He adjusted the angle as he fell, and stepped his mechanical foot on the back of one of the deformed insects, trying to jump out of the slime pool before the other party could react.
At this time, another wave of mutated insects rushed out from the corridor and jumped into the slime pool like dumplings. Before Jiang He could take off, he was pressed into the slime by these mutated insects.
The mucus is also filled with densely packed deformed insects.
Adult deformed worms are different from the larvae. They live in sand all year round and cannot survive in water. The deformed worms were choked to death shortly after being pressed into the mucus. Some of them did not die but were struggling constantly.
Jiang He didn't have to worry about being bitten to death by the deformed insects, but it was a bit difficult to get out.
She was digging around in the mucus looking for a gap. Suddenly, she felt something strange behind her and turned her head sharply.
A pair of blue eyes stared at her through the bloody goo.
Seeing Jiang He turn his head, it flicked its tail, pushed aside the deformed insect corpses around it and swam forward.
Jiang He was so impressed by the pair of blue eyes that she thought the other party had died at the hands of the insect mother, but she didn't expect that it was still alive.
Although it didn't show any expression, Jiang He guessed that it wanted her to follow, so she immediately followed it. However, after soaking at the bottom of the mucus for a long time, Jiang He's breath holding ability had reached its limit.
The ground was covered with dense corpses of deformed insects, and she couldn't get out to breathe. Although she was following the blue-eyed insects, her brain gradually became dizzy due to lack of oxygen.
The blue-eyed worm in front turned its head, and its human-like hands grabbed the corpse of a deformed worm next to it, cut the worm's throat, and quickly put it into Jiang He's mouth.
Jiang He took two deep breaths and then continued to follow the blue-eyed worm. With its demonstration, whenever he felt suffocated again, Jiang He would pull the head of a deformed worm over, cut open its throat and take a breath or two.
It’s better than nothing, it can prolong your life!
Led by the blue-eyed worm, Jiang He passed through the dense corpses of deformed worms, and then through a pile of deformed worms that were madly tearing each other apart, and finally crawled out of the pile of deformed worms.
The blue-eyed worm moved aside and motioned for her to climb the slope.
Going up this slope will lead you to where Blue Tiger and A are.
After Jiang He crawled for a distance, he turned around and saw that it was still staring at him, with no intention of catching up.
After a brief hesitation, Jiang He asked it, "Do you want to leave together?"
Her voice was gentle and friendly, and her gaze was nonjudgmental.
She thought that it could definitely understand what she said and feel the friendliness she released.
Just like at the beginning, she wanted to kill it in the blue tiger's belly. It felt her murderous intention in the blue tiger's belly, cleverly lay dormant, and then took the initiative to counterattack at the first moment and took the opportunity to escape.
It protected Blue Tiger in the mucus, it survived a pile of fighting larvae, it knew to cut the mutant worm's throat to let her breathe, and it saved her without any grudges.
Jiang He deeply understood what Lan Hu said from it.
The evolution of the Zerg is terrifying, so how can humans not be afraid of such creatures?
From a human perspective, Jiang He should kill this extremely intelligent mutant insect, but she is a criminal that humans want to kill a hundred times.
Anyway, he has committed unforgivable crimes, so a little more evil doesn't matter.
The blue-eyed bug raised its head slightly, glanced at where Lan Hu was lying, then turned its back to Jiang He.
It rejected Jiang He's invitation, crawled through the gaps between the deformed insects that were still fighting, and sank into the mucus again.
Everyone has their own aspirations. Although Jiang He didn't understand why the blue-eyed worm wanted to continue burrowing into the mucus, he didn't force it.
Jiang He continued to climb up until he could no longer see it.
A sat next to Lan Hu with an expressionless face, his hands hanging down as he played with the two pitch-black daggers.
Jiang He poked his head out and jokingly said, "I'm not dead, are you surprised?"
The other person looked behind her and asked, "Why don't you kill it?"
It seems that he saw the blue-eyed worm and should have guessed its origin, so he asked this question.
Jiang He climbed up and sat down, tore off a piece of the pants of her mechanical leg, and bandaged it on the wound left by 7039 on her thigh.
The wound had turned white from the mucus, but it was still bleeding. As she bandaged it, she said to A, "There are still many mutant insects pouring in from that hole. If we want to get out, we have to fight them head-on. How's your rest?"
She didn't answer A's question because she felt there was nothing to say.
It's fine if she killed him when he wanted to kill her, but why would he kill her when he saved her?!
A didn't ask any further questions. He glanced at Jiang He's injured leg and replied, "Don't worry, I'm better than you."
Jiang He looked down. "Some mutant insects have already smelled us and are crawling in this direction. These guys are really multitasking."
Just reproduce, why are you still thinking about finding food? It’s so disrespectful to the insect mother.
She bandaged the wound and patted Lan Hu's chest. Although his heartbeat was weak, it was still calm.
So he reached out and picked up Lan Hu.
When she looked up, A had already stood up and distanced himself from her, "I can walk by myself."
He didn't pull out the gun stuck in his chest, but fortunately the bleeding stopped. It must be the hemostatic drug that worked.
But both arms were still hanging down, and it was estimated that the bones of the shoulder blades had been crushed by the guard's mechanical hands.
"Okay." Jiang He said, "I'll be in front, and you follow closely behind."
There were not as many male deformed insects appearing in the cave as before, but deformed insects kept appearing. They rushed in from the cave in a hurry and ran towards the position of the insect mother in an extremely urgent manner.
Given their frenzied state, people might ignore them if they see them outside the cave, but if they meet them inside the cave, they might think it would be a waste not to eat the snack that is right in their mouth.
Jiang He turned her head and glanced at A, who was following her silently. When he saw her turn her head, he gave her a questioning look: What's wrong?
"He might die in the cave." Jiang He said, "You can still regret it now."
Although A is mature in his work, he looks like a handsome young man who has not been weathered by the wind and rain. Jiang He subconsciously mistakes him for a child.
"oh."
He read the poem that Jiang He always mentioned and returned the same way.
Jiang He: “…”
She let out a long breath, picked up a mechanical knife that she had fished out of the slime, and rushed towards the cave.
The mutated worms were taller than humans, and this cave was larger than Jiang He had expected. It could at least accommodate two mutated worms passing side by side. Although Lan Hu could not carry it horizontally, he would not hit the wall when turning.
The good news is that if you encounter a single mutant insect, there is a high chance that the other party will not bother to deal with it if you move against the wall to make way. The bad news is that most mutant insects rush in in groups.
Jiang He swung the mechanical knife in his hand and slashed all the way.
When he rushed out of the cave, his body was covered in a mixture of blood and mucus, with murderous intent between his eyebrows and eyes, like an evil ghost that had broken out of the Shura Hell.
A behind her was in a slightly better condition than her, but not much better. He asked, "Why don't you throw it away?"
Jiang He knew he was talking about Lan Hu. She glanced at the Lan Hu in her hand and said, "Oh, that's not necessary."
If it really comes to a life-and-death situation, I will have to throw it away, but there is no need to do so now.
There was a "thump" sound behind him, and A fell to the ground.
Jiang He touched his chest. He was okay, still alive. He was probably exhausted.
Outside the cave was a deep desert pit, quite large, and it would take some time to climb out. Jiang He carried A and Lan Hu and walked for a distance until she felt that she was far enough away from the cave entrance and would not be hit by the deformed insects. She also fell exhausted on the sand.
My whole body aches, I feel tired and exhausted, and I just want to close my eyes and fall asleep, preferably forever.
But she didn't dare close her eyes, as deformed insects would appear around her from time to time, and she was the only one awake now.
She stared at the sky.
There are many and dense stars in the desert, and the night sky is much more beautiful than in the training camp.
If a brown bear were here, it would probably lie down and look at the night sky all night.
Jiang He took out the transparent crystal from his pocket and played with it in his hand.
The guards and the prisoners repeatedly searched for the core in the mucus, but could not find it. Jiang He was a little suspicious that this ordinary crystal in his hand might be the core with huge energy that Teacher Song had mentioned.
Another line of large characters suddenly appeared on the transparent screen in front of him.
#A sandstorm is approaching at 120 kilometers per hour. The protective shield can only be opened outside the sand pit. The sand pit will be filled with sand in five minutes.#
Jiang He: ???
She jumped up, picked up Lan Hu and A and ran out of the sand pit.
She didn't run for long before she stumbled and fell. She had several wounds on her body when she killed the deformed insects in the cave. Although she had a strong healing ability, she could not fully recover in such a short time.
The wound was so painful that her whole body felt like it was filled with lead. She gritted her teeth, climbed up, grabbed A and Lan Hu and continued to charge.
A was awake when she fell and asked her, "What happened?"
Jiang He said simply: "The sandstorm will arrive in five minutes."
Person A said, "My neurons are severely damaged."
A said: "If you throw me away, there is a high chance that you will get out of the bunker."
His neurons were damaged, rendering most of the mechanical components in his body incapable of functioning. He might die soon.
Carrying him around is a waste of energy.
Jiang He: "You're right."
You're right, but I'm not going to listen.
Jiang He fell again, with a mouthful of sand in his mouth.
She got up and continued to rush forward, carrying the two people.
Normally, it would be easy for me to carry a person, but today, it felt like two huge rocks in my hands, and my arms seemed to be breaking at any moment.
A: "You will die."
"right."
A: …
If Lan Hu was awake, he would definitely roar, "You stubborn woman."
The sandstorm was getting closer and closer, and the night sky had turned into a sky full of dust. Jiang He walked against the wind and sand, and as the sand howled, every step she took became difficult.
A voice stated calmly, "If you don't let me go, you will all be buried in the sand and die, including him."
