The small pieces of elemental crystals that were retrieved were then sent into another cave by the worker insects, but the deeper they went, the more heavily guarded they became.
Many soldier insects have already appeared, guarding the cave. They only allow each worker insect to enter after communicating with it using their antennae...
What should we do?!
Soldier insects can be the size of an adult, with long fangs, resembling spiders, and have eight legs. They can stand upright on their upper bodies using their hind legs...
Since I can't go in myself, I'll send a scout bee in to check first!
The scout bee slowly flew into the cave, unnoticed by the soldier insects. Yunqi hid in a corner, watching the images transmitted back by the scout bee.
In the scene, small pieces of elemental crystals are carried to even smaller insects, about the size of a cat. There appear to be only four insects. The four insects devour the small pieces of elemental crystals, and their excrement from the elemental crystals seems to be purer.
Yun Qi frowned. The fact that the Zerg could purify elemental crystals was not a good thing.
The reason why the Zerg are so hated in the interstellar era is because they have an exceptionally high reproductive rate. Furthermore, wherever the Zerg appear, they devour all the flora and fauna on that planet! Once everything is gone, they move on to the next planet and continue their destruction…
All interstellar people hate the Zerg to the core. Now the Zerg can actually purify elemental crystals... You must know, elemental crystals and elemental crystal cores are the energy source of mechs.
Given the Zerg's predatory nature, being able to purify elemental crystals is not a good thing!
Just as Yunqi was piloting the scout bee to investigate further, a piercing insect chirp rang out, and the scout bee was knocked to the ground...
The insects swarmed around the scout bee... and then the footage cut out...
Xiao Qi cried out anxiously, "Qi Qi, hurry! Get out of the cave quickly! The insect soldiers have started searching all the caves! Hurry!"
Yunqi retreated along the path she had come from, but unexpectedly, a dense swarm of insects blocked her way out...
Although Yunqi smells of insects, she would definitely be detected if she came into direct contact with the insects' antennae.
With so many insects now, Yunqi has nowhere to hide...
Yunqi swung her sword and stepped forward, killing the first few insect soldiers...
Upon seeing their comrade die, the other soldier insects and worker insects let out piercing screams and rushed forward to fight Yunqi to the death...
Fortunately, although there were many worker insects, they didn't have much combat power and were all killed by Yun Qi with a single strike.
The soldier insect was slightly stronger, but it was still no match for Yunqi.
There were just too many of them, and Yunqi was really killing until her hands were sore...
Xiaoqi reminded her: Qiqi, don't get caught up in the fight, there are still a lot of soldier worms and worker worms coming this way!
Are they trying to wear him down?!
Yunqi swung her sword and killed another worker insect that rushed at her, then stepped back a few paces!
He decisively took out insecticide from his ring space and sprayed it wildly around him!
Insects nearby that were sprayed fell down and lost their fighting ability, while those behind them instinctively retreated upon smelling the odor and dared not approach.
This move completely stunned Xiaoqi: Qiqi, you actually have insecticide?!
Yunqi: I packed a lot of supplies when I was gathering them during the apocalypse, but I didn't pack enough! ...If I had known I would encounter bugs, I would have packed more insecticide...
Xiaoqi: ...(ー_ー) This is against the rules...!
Yunqi: Give me a break. Since I can take out insecticide from the ring space, it means that insecticide is not against the rules. You said that prohibited items cannot be taken out.
That makes sense.
Xiaoqi: ...Qiqi, get out of the cave now! The insects are afraid of the insecticide and won't come near, but if there are more insects later, things might get complicated...
Yunqi: Mm.
Yunqi sprayed insecticide as she retreated from the cave. Occasionally, a few insects that were not afraid of the insecticide would rush up, but Yunqi would kill them with her sword.
As soon as Yunqi left the cave, she immediately got into her mecha and sped off, finally shaking off the insects behind her.
Xiaoqi: Okay, Qiqi, the bugs aren't chasing us anymore.
"I'm exhausted." Yun Qi stepped out of the mecha and lay back on the ground, panting heavily. She laughed between breaths, "That was so exciting!"
Xiaoqi:...(ー_ー)!!
Yunqi gradually calmed down and asked, "Xiaoqi, is there any water nearby? I smell like insects, I want to wash myself."
Xiaoqi: The scout bees have swept this area, let me take a look. There's a small lake about 200 meters to your left, you can go there to wash up.
Yunqi thoroughly washed herself and the mecha several times, changed into clean clothes, and was finally satisfied.
"Xiao Qi, I just put a lot of Yuan Crystals into my ring space. You can use them to exchange for points. We'll split them 50/50."
"Okay!" Xiao Qi was clearly very happy, her tone cheerful.
"Ding, [Elemental Crystal] * 1000 exchange points, exchange now?"
"yes."
"Ding, redemption successful. Remaining points: 5000 points."
Xiao Qi flew out of the system space, circled twice in the sky, and landed on Yun Qi's shoulder. Thinking that she had also given up 5,000 points, she happily rubbed against Yun Qi and said, "Thank you, Qi Qi. Qi Qi is so nice!"
More than half of the elemental crystals in the ring space disappeared instantly, leaving me with a sense of melancholy...
This... it's gone before I even had a chance to enjoy it...
Suddenly, Yunqi noticed a sparkling elemental crystal among the remaining ones and took it out to examine it.
Xiao Qi saw it too and exclaimed happily, "Qiqi, you've struck gold! This is a top-quality Yuan Crystal Core! It's also big enough to be the energy core for the new Yunlei mecha!"
Yunqi was also very happy. She had been thinking about the problem of the mecha's energy core, but now it was solved: "Looks like I'm really lucky!"
Xiao Qi asked, "Qiqi, we've already got the points, should we go back to the Imperial Star?"
