Chapter 18
[Dear players, please note that the mission has been temporarily changed.
Training Ground No. 3 has been occupied by star beasts. Zhang Zesheng successfully finds the energy cube fragments and crystals and evacuates them.
We have currently obtained 1/3 of the Energy Cube crystals, and the remaining 2/3 require everyone to work together to find the Energy Cube and escape from Training Ground No. 3.
Attention! In twenty-four hours, laser cannons will cover the entire planet!
Players, please work hard to find the energy cube and leave the training ground!
Repeat again...】
At the same time, players from various civilizations who were fighting in groups to compete for energy stones received reminders from the mecha civilization's optical computer and learned of the existence of star beasts. Their faces changed drastically.
At the beginning, Moss of the magic civilization regarded Ira as an enemy, and in the face of a powerful enemy, he reluctantly cooperated with Ira.
However, he still didn't look kind to Ira, and said coldly: "I can cooperate, but not with you. If I can't help it, I might poison you."
Ira: “…”
Wu Jian mentally sent a barrage of 555 comments to this handsome green-haired boy.
Ira suppressed her anger and said, "Sure, we'll reunite as soon as we find the remaining fragments!"
Moss rolled his eyes. "I don't need your reminder. Just take care of your people and don't cause me any trouble."
Ira was a little unconvinced, "What's wrong with my people? Isn't it enough to say it once? Isn't it a bit too much to say it again and again?"
Moss pointed at the little dragon cub in He Nuo's arms and taunted, "Am I wrong? You have a family to support. Is there no one left in your alien beast civilization? Enslaving a cub is shameless."
Ira was choked and speechless.
Wu Jian opened his crimson eyes wide, looking bewildered.
I was clearly eating Ira's melon, why did he cue me again?
He Nuo rubbed the little dragon's horn and spoke coldly.
"He's very good and doesn't need your advice."
Moss was stunned when he looked at He Nuo's face. He was arguing with Ira and didn't notice the existence of this person at all.
Although his face is disfigured, he has a strong aura and must be a big shot.
But he racked his brains and still couldn't remember any such person?
Could it be a rising star?
Moss was very interested in He Nuo himself and asked He Nuo's name before leaving.
But He Nuo held the little dragon cub in his arms, frowned, and didn't want to pay any attention to Moss at all.
rare
Seeing that Dumos was being ignored, Ira seized the opportunity and laughed at him.
Moss snorted coldly and left with his men without hesitation.
After Moss and his group left, Ira regained her sanity.
"Back to the topic. Where do we start looking for the crystal of the Energy Cube?"
Yila looked at the little dragon cub lazily nestled in He Nuo's arms and asked, "What do you think, little cub?"
The healing potion contained some sleeping ingredients, which made the little dragon cub drowsy. When he heard Ira's question, his blurry eyes suddenly widened.
"Ouch?" What happened? Did you find the Energy Cube?
Ila repeated the previous question, which stumped the little dragon.
He wondered anxiously where the crystal was most likely to appear.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up and an idea flashed through his mind!
"Oh!" I get it! Brother He, do you still remember the corridor we first entered?
He Nuo understood immediately, "You mean?"
The little dragon nodded vigorously.
"Ah." We almost turned the No. 3 training ground upside down but still couldn't find the energy cube, and I got the energy crystal from the star beast egg. Maybe there was a crystal at the end of that corridor!
He Nuo frowned and said, "That tunnel has been occupied by the star beasts. Besides, Suo Taiyaer and his men blew up the tunnel before, so the tunnel should have been buried."
Ira asked in confusion, "Why did Sotayal and the others blow up the tunnel?"
"Because they were already planning to target the cubs, they happened to stumble into the Star Beast's lair, alarming it. So they thought of blowing up the cave to block the Star Beast's path. But judging by the situation, even if they blew up the tunnel, they still couldn't escape from the Star Beast."
Ira's face turned grim. "So the passage is blocked now?"
He Nuo nodded.
Dumez suddenly interrupted and said, "Actually, there is a solution."
Everyone looked at Dumes.
Dumez adjusted his glasses and said, "We can blast a new passage out from the nearby tunnel. The prerequisite is to find the energy crystal before alarming the star beast inside."
"Is this method reliable?" Ira asked.
He Nuo said: "Yes. The mole star beast moves slowly, so we can take action in advance when it arrives."
Ira was silent for a moment and nodded.
After everyone discussed it, they went to the Star Beast Nest under He Nuo's instruction.
hole.
Why hasn't the little dragon spoken during this period?
Because he had fallen asleep in He Nuo's arms, he only heard the general idea of what they discussed.
When Wu Jian woke up again, he was awakened by the huge sound of bombing.
Wu Jian opened his confused eyes.
He Nuo's low voice sounded in my ears.
"Don't sleep if you're awake. We've already reached the lair of the star beast. Wait a minute, keep your eyes open, and call me if you notice anything wrong."
Wu Jian nodded vigorously.
The corridor had been closed for a while and the smell was blocked. When they stepped in, they smelled a strange smell mixed with the stench of blood and decay, which made other people at the scene cover their noses.
The players of the alien beast civilization have extremely sensitive noses, and the smell in the corridor makes them feel very uncomfortable.
"There was a very brutal fight here, and the smell of blood was very strong."
A ball of fire emerged from Yila's hand, and he said to everyone, "Silence! The Earth Rat Star Beast is very sensitive to sound."
The team fell silent in an instant, with only the sound of everyone's breathing echoing in the cave.
Using the lighting fixtures in the hands of other players, Wu Jian carefully scanned the cave from top to bottom.
The cave is not high, about two meters, and only wide enough for two people to stand side by side.
Tick!
A drop of liquid fell on the little dragon's face.
He looked up and saw that his head was covered with white mucus, and he couldn't help but poke He Nuo's chest.
With this poke, Wu Jian felt the powerful muscles through the clothes, which made him a little envious.
Before he awakened, he also had muscles, but they were only a thin layer and not enough to be seen.
He Nuo didn't know what Wu Jian was thinking. He lowered his eyes slightly and asked Wu Jian what he was doing.
Wu Jian used his short claws to signal him to look up.
He Nuo looked up and saw the white mucus, and his expression changed.
He stopped and asked the others behind him to stop as well.
When they were still wondering why He Nuo stopped, they looked up and saw the picture along with He Nuo's gaze, and they gasped and became speechless.
Dumeis adjusted his glasses and said, "That thing left not long ago. It should be the liquid left behind by the Earth Rat Star Beast."
"Deputy Captain, are we still going over there?"
"Let's go, why not? If we don't go, when the number of star beasts increases, we will all feed them!" said Ila.
He Nuo used the top of his gun
Duan touched a little of the slime and took a look at it for a few seconds before saying, "It should be another star beast. I followed the slime to find the cubs before and met you."
"It's strange to say, the star beast ate Sotayal's heart and left. Normally, star beasts won't let go of any living thing they see, and wherever they pass, there's almost no grass left. But it's very strange that the star beast abandoned a living thing and left. If it sensed the presence of its own kind, it would abandon the living thing. That makes sense."
While everyone was discussing the star beast that left the slime, Wu Jian remembered that when he was attacked by Sotayal, a giant beast covered with golden hair pierced Sotayal's body.
The cub hatched, but what was it doing in the other cub's nest?
He remembered that on the Blue Star Continent, viviparous mice liked to live in groups.
Could it be that it is here to reunite with its own kind?
What Ira said next confirmed his thoughts.
"Mole Star Beasts are social animals. The cubs must have heard the call of their companions and came to join them. This means there may be two cubs hiding in the cave. We should be vigilant when searching for crystals."
A group of people went to the star beast's lair.
When Wu Jian returned to the escape tunnel he had taken, he was stunned by the scene before him.
The tunnel was expanded dozens of times by the corrosive liquid, forming a massive crater. Around the edge of the crater were scattered the bones of Warcraft and the remains of players from other civilizations.
The scene was filled with corpses and blood, and piles of dry bones, which made some people present look very ugly.
Wu Jian covered his mouth and nose and tried hard to get into He Nuo's clothes.
He Nuo stiffened unnaturally.
The star beast's nest is very deep, and you can see what's going on below.
Ira led the way down the slope into the deep pit.
Soon, a light flickered at the bottom of the pit.
Dumez understood Ira's meaning and said, "It's safe, go down first."
After arriving at the deep pit, Wu Jian looked at the pit in front of him. It was clean and there was nothing in it, only some milky white liquid condensed in the pit.
"Where's the Star Beast?"
Someone asked doubtfully.
Ira said, "The star beast seems to have left."
He Nuo walked towards the milky white liquid that looked like a lake, bent down to pick up a bone from some unknown monster, and threw it into the lake.
In an instant, the lake began to bubble, and the bones had been completely decomposed and merged into the liquid.
Wu Jian stuck his head out and saw the liquid corroding the bones, and couldn't help but click his tongue.
"Oh." Brother He, what exactly is this corrosive liquid?
"The fetal fluid of the star beast."
Wu Jian was shocked. Are star beasts so powerful? Even fetal fluid can easily corrode bones?
"Don't be surprised. Star beasts are ten times more terrifying than you can imagine. The mole star beast is just one of the star beast species." He Nuo said.
"He's right. The mole beast is just one of the star beasts. The other star beasts are at the edge of the Milky Way. They are different from us, but their behaviors are very similar. They rely on eating energy, while we rely on energy for survival." Ira agreed with He Nuo's words and explained to the little dragon cub.
boom!
At this moment, the ground rumbled and the cave shook.
The edge of the deep pit was cracked and grooved, and the milky white liquid was constantly stirring, sometimes expanding, sometimes flattening, making a gurgling sound.
He Nuo's face changed as if he thought of something.
"Leave now!"!
