Chapter 12



Lu Rankong chopped off the Jie insects that pounced in front of him one by one and shouted to Lan Yu: "K madman, come with me to kill the Insect King."

Insect King? Extra large cockroach?

Lan Yu's heart twitched, and he said seriously: "There are a lot of Jie insects here, I must kill them all, you find someone else to go with you."

"No, it will be very difficult for others to go."

"If I leave now, it will be difficult for them to be alone."

Lu Rankong said coldly: "Do they need your music to cheer them up?"

Lan Yu quickly searched on the virtual console and pressed the icon with a small speaker printed on it, and the deafening rock music finally stopped.

"Don't talk nonsense, follow me, and you can act crazy as much as you want from now on."

Lu Rankong scraped the insect corpses at his feet twice with the long knife covered with green liquid, and like a black whirlwind, he swept in the rolling swarm of Jie insects.

"Hey, I say--" Lan Yu didn't have time to finish her words and could only silently retract her outstretched hand.

He looked at 666's back, then glanced at the soldiers who were killing behind him, and took a deep breath.

"Ah——" The 999 mecha let out a long roar and rushed into the Jie insect swarm.

The ground under my feet was a little uneven, and there was a crackling sound. The virtual screen showed that there were Jie insects everywhere, clinging tightly to the mecha.

Those shiny black wings, curved long legs, and scaled abdomen made Lan Yu tremble in her heart. She could only pull them off while running, and then chop them with her long sword.

"Can't it fly?" He caught up with 666 in front and asked a little desperately.

666 was now piled up like a mountain of Jie insects. He kept picking up the Jie insects on his body, cutting off their heads and throwing them out.

Hearing Lan Yu's words, Lu Rankong shouted, "The Insect King is mixed in with the insect swarm. It's hard to find him if you fly, and we don't know how long the fight will take. Don't use up the energy of your mecha. If you can avoid flying, don't fly."

"Why is it hard to find?" Lan Yu grabbed one on his shoulder, chopped it off, and threw it away without even looking.

The headless worm was smashed into the pile of insects, and the insects waved their forelimbs angrily.

Lu Rankong showed some patience and explained, "The King Insect is the same size as an ordinary Jie insect. The only difference is that there are red spots on its abdomen. Just catch it and look at its abdomen."

Cockroaches with red spots seem to be more disgusting than just being big.

"How can I keep track of so many?" Lan Yu looked at the dense swarm of insects and his scalp felt numb.

"Observe..." Lu Rankong kicked his feet and threw out a long string of mud. "The insect king has a certain intelligence. If we rush in like this, it will definitely hide itself. We can only judge where it is by the reactions of other Jie insects."

Seeing that Lan Yu remained silent, he continued, "Lin Zhu and Chen Yuqin have received the signal. If they haven't encountered the Jie insect swarm, they will be here soon."

Lan Yu pushed away the Jie insects blocking the panel and began to look for the unique Jie insect in the swarm.

The hair on this leg is a little long, but there are no spots on the belly. No, I just cut it off.

It was staring at me intently, and there was something odd on its hairy face... No... then what were you looking at? Cut it.

He had become numb to the harsh scratching sounds coming from the mecha's hull, so he just focused on rummaging through the swarm of insects, and by the way, he would catch an unlucky Capricorn and cut off its head.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but when he turned around, Lu Rankong not far away caught his attention.

The 666 mecha kept kicking its legs and bending over to look at its crotch. The large mecha stuck out its square buttocks, which looked very weird.

"What are you doing?" Lan Yu couldn't help but ask when he stretched out his iron arm and started to grab her crotch.

Lu Rankong quickly withdrew his hand and stood up. He turned his back and continued to look for the Insect King, pretending that nothing had happened.

Maybe because the two mechas were not facing each other, he ignored the 360-degree display screen inside the mecha. After turning his back for a while, mecha 666 simply knelt on one knee and started to grab his crotch.

"What are you doing?" Lan Yu couldn't help but ask again as she looked at the mecha making indecent movements on the display screen.

Lu Rankong finally spoke: "I have a crack here, and the Jie insect is digging at that hole. This mecha is not flexible enough to catch the insect."

Lan Yu threw away the insect corpse in her hand and walked towards him, "Let me see..."

"What's so good about it..." Lu Rankong felt a little awkward for once.

Lan Yu ignored him and walked straight to the mecha.

666's body and head are now covered with Jie insects, and the metal surface underneath can no longer be seen. It looks like a mountain of insects.

He instantly got goosebumps all over his body. He reached under the arms of the mecha, lifted it up, and shook it rapidly in the air at a speed of three times a second.

After shaking off the insects covering him, he squatted down facing 666.

Lu Rankong: ...

Lan Yu saw from the display screen that the mecha in front of her was covered with scratches. There was a fist-wide crack at the joint where the thigh and the body were connected. A Capricorn insect's forelimb tried to reach in, but got stuck there.

Another Jie insect pounced on him from the side, but Lan Yu didn't even look at it and just hammered it straight to the side.

As the insect was smashed and sent flying, he stretched out his iron arm to pull the insect between 666's legs.

In the distance, a group of soldiers from the third battalion worked together to kill several Jie insects around them and stood there catching their breath.

"Hey, hey, hey, look, what are Colonel K and Colonel Lu doing?"

"where?"

"In the swarm of insects, look quickly."

“Ah…ah…hahahaha…”

"Quick, quick, take a picture, take a picture."

Lu Rankong looked down at the mecha head that was pressed against his lower abdomen, motionless.

"Open your legs a little, why are you clamping them so tightly?" Lan Yu's voice came from the mecha, slightly distorted.

Lu Rankong spread his legs as he was told.

Lan Yu reached in, grabbed the madly struggling insect and pulled it out. The gap was a little tight. He pulled it twice but failed to get it out, so he simply pried it down with force.

With a snap, the broken-legged insect fell to the ground.

Lan Yu slowly lifted the severed limb and stretched it out from between the legs of the mecha to show Lu Rankong, "Look, it's broken."

"Ah...hahahaha..." There was laughter and applause coming from a distance, mixed with whistles.

The two looked over in the direction of the sound and discovered that many mechas had stopped and were heading towards this side.

Lan Yu squatted on the ground holding the severed limb, looking at the group of soldiers in confusion, and was almost knocked down by the Jie insects that rushed towards him.

Lu Rankong quickly took a step back and yelled at the other side: "You are almost being caught by the bugs, and you are still fucking smiling. Don't you have anything else in your mind? Look at the people in the second battalion, who has stopped?"

After being scolded, the group of soldiers quickly continued to kill insects.

Lan Yu finally figured it out, and the blood in his body rushed to his head.

He felt both embarrassed and annoyed, but fortunately he was now wrapped in a mecha and no one could see his blushing face.

These damn, obscene alphas!

Lu Rankong kicked the bug next to him away, turned around and said to him, "Go on, what are you still squatting for?"

Lan Yu looked at him angrily and held the half insect limb across her chest. Hold the other end with your left iron arm, and use both hands to bend it slowly, slowly.

Until the insect limbs could no longer withstand the pressure and broke with a snap.

"Look, it's broken," he said maliciously.

After the two mechas stared at each other for a few seconds, Lu Rankong squeezed out two words from between his teeth, "You are sick..."

The two stopped talking and struggled to find the Insect King in the swarm. They wielded their swords to kill the Jie insects that rushed towards them one by one.

When they occasionally meet, they will silently pick the lice on each other's bodies, like two gorillas picking lice from each other.

The sun in the distance slowly sets, like an orange-red duck egg.

Lan Yu couldn't help but wonder, "It will be dark soon. Can we find it by looking like this?"

"Must find..." Lu Rankong said coldly.

Lan Yu's voice was even colder than his, "What if I can't find it?"

"We must find it!" Lu Rankong emphasized.

"At night, the energy will not be enough, and there will be no way to find it." Lan Yu stood on the round platform of the mecha's abdomen and waved his arms, commanding the mecha to chop off the head of a Jie insect, and then hit the two blades against each other, saying in a gloomy voice: "You have to come up with a plan. I don't want to hear the words 'must find' again."

Lu Rankong was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "There are only four battalions of mecha soldiers stationed on the planet Kata. If we can't find the Insect King, we can only keep killing them. We can't let these Jie insects leave the desert. So, we must find them!"

He added: "As for the energy box, I have already notified the military to send it."

The two looked at each other. Even though they could only see the expressionless armor, they could still imagine the other's ferocious expression at this moment.

At this moment, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the distance, and the ground was shaking.

Lan Yu asked cautiously: "What's going on?"

"Chen Yutan, Lin Zhu and the others have arrived." Lu Rankong's voice sounded a lot more relaxed.

As soon as he finished speaking, a row of small black dots appeared in the distance. But in the blink of an eye, the small black dots expanded rapidly, and it could be seen that they were a group of mechas.

"They came here directly to save energy boxes. Now we can have more people to look for the Insect King."

Lan Yu breathed a sigh of relief and turned around.

At this time, he saw a Jie insect in the swarm. Instead of continuing to pounce towards this side like the other insects, it stopped and stood where it was, also looking in the direction where the mecha was coming.

It stared at it for a while, then turned its head and Lan Yu was met with a pair of cold insect eyes.

The eyes of those insects were no different from those of other insects, the size of a bowl, and the lens eyeballs were covered with a hazy membrane. The difference is that the eyes are not empty and indifferent, but contain emotions.

An emotion mixed with panic and viciousness.

It stared at Lan Yu across the swarm of insects for just a second before its expression changed and it woodenly followed the swarm of insects towards this side.

If Lan Yu wasn't particularly sensitive to such subtle changes in emotions, she wouldn't have noticed this.

This is a drama queen.

It’s a pity that you met the best actor.

The insect was very alert, and its eyes seemed empty, but Lan Yu knew it was observing her.

He turned the mech around, facing the other way, and watched its reaction on the display calmly.

After a minute or two, the insect looked around and began to retreat. The insects on its sides made way and quickly stood in front of it, like a group of loyal bodyguards.

It retreated silently, stopped at the edge of the swarm, and continued to watch the mecha rumbling in the distance.

Without any warning, Lan Yu suddenly took off into the air, and the seemingly bulky mecha turned flexibly in the air and flew straight towards the Jie insect.

He raised the long knife on his iron arm in the air, determined to chop off the head of the Jie insect the moment he fell.

The insect was originally gazing into the distance, but when the huge shadow of the mecha loomed over it, it suddenly turned its head.

The pair of glass-like eyeballs suddenly shrank into a pair of thin vertical pupils.

Lan Yu raised his hands inside the mecha cavity and quickly dropped them. The mecha followed his movements closely, and chopped down the Jie insect with its long sword.

Just when the blade was only a few meters away from it, the insect suddenly rolled over and passed through the abdomen of the other insects.

As it rolled over, Lan Yu saw bright red spots on the black abdomen of the insect.

It wasn't as disgusting as he imagined, it looked like a large ladybug.

It is indeed the Insect King.

The long knife drew a deep groove on the ground. Lan Yu landed on the ground with both feet. Looking up, he saw that the Insect King had rushed out of the swarm and was flying away at a very fast speed.

He didn't have time to think, he just raised his feet and was about to chase after it, but at this moment, all the Jie insects hissed and rushed towards him like crazy.

Lan Yu's mecha was hit hard and made a loud bang. He took a few steps back before he could stabilize himself. But the Insect King had already taken this opportunity to fly several hundred meters away and became a small black dot in the distance.

He was about to call Lu Rankong anxiously when a shadow passed by his side. The 666 mecha had already taken off and chased in the direction of the Insect King.

Struggling to break free from the Jie insect swarm, Lan Yu flew up with difficulty, throwing away the Jie insects that were still scratching at her body, and shouted to the rescue mecha that had already rushed over: "I'm going to catch the insect king, I leave this place to you."

It is much better to face a ladybug than a group of cockroaches.

Without paying attention to their answers, Lan Yu pressed the acceleration key on the right, and the mecha flew towards 666's back like a huge cannonball.

There is a vast desert beneath your feet, and the sun is about to set in the sky. Against the backdrop of the blood-stained sunset, the 666 mecha is trying its best to catch up. The small black dot in the front is the Insect King who is desperately fleeing.

Lan Yu discovered that the Insect King was escaping along a specific route and would slowly adjust its direction.

When it and the 666 behind it made a big circle and gradually moved to the right, he chased after it in a straight line.

By taking this shortcut, he was closer to the Insect King than Lu Rankong. You can see the black wings fluttering with light and shadow, and the humming sound they make when they vibrate.

The sharp blade on his iron arm popped out with a click, and he was ready to pounce down at any time.

But the speed of the Insect King was too fast. Even if he pressed the acceleration on the control panel to the maximum, he could only maintain the same speed. It was very difficult to close the distance.

The bright red in the sky faded away, and a blue-black curtain was drawn open, with bright and dark stars hanging on it.

One insect and two mechas were flying rapidly across the desert. Occasionally, some small animals that poked their heads out from the ground were frightened and retreated back into their holes.

Lan Yu kept chasing the Insect King, with 666 following behind him.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but dark shadows appeared vaguely in the distance. As we continued forward, the outline of a city gradually emerged.

Mirage?

No, he had seen mirages when he was filming, but they were not so real.

Lan Yu was shocked. They were chasing her to the edge of the desert and were about to attack the city.
