Pei Xiqing could no longer remember how many parasites he had killed or how many parasites' heads he had stepped on. Like everyone else on the second line of defense, he only had one thought in his mind.
——We must not let any parasite pass through this line of defense.
Once it spreads, it will be a devastating blow to the newly established Quanwu base.
Her hand holding the gun was sore and her energy was almost exhausted.
The serpent was like a young snake that had not yet grown up. It finally curled around her wrist with its last breath, spitting out its tongue and looking tired.
She subconsciously wanted to touch the snake's head.
As soon as his fingers touched the snake, it disappeared.
Only then did he realize that the horned snake was not a physical entity, but an illusion.
She smiled, unable to hold the gun in her hand anymore. It was as if all the strength had been drained from her body. She wanted to fall to the ground, but before she touched the ground, she fell into a slightly cold embrace, like a thick wall, blocking all attacks from behind.
Pei Xiqing raised his eyes slightly.
"Brother Duan..."
"Rest." The man whispered, "You've worked hard."
She hugged the man's waist tightly, buried her bloodstained face deep in his arms, and said, "Hold on."
"Hold it."
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone."
Duan Xiaolin picked her up and carried her sideways.
Quickly left the battlefield.
When passing Ling Lang, he whispered: "Everyone retreat first."
Ling Lang looked reluctantly at the parasites that were still pouring out in front of him, and couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood. Finally, under Qiu Chao's urging, he had to retreat first.
Temporary base around the aircraft.
Pei Xiqing breathed shallowly on the man's knees, her face as pale as paper.
Her condition was not bad, and neither was the other.
Ling Lang and Qiu Chao couldn't even count the wounds of all sizes on their bodies.
As soon as they arrived, Long Yan and Zhang Tian immediately began to treat their wounds, pressing the bleeding wounds tightly with gauze.
Long Yan yelled, "Operation! There's a thorn stuck in my body! It must be pulled out as soon as possible!"
Zhang Tian immediately handed over the surgical instrument.
A sharp object nearly 20 centimeters long almost pierced Ling Lang's body at the chest, and Long Yan immediately began surgery to remove it.
"It will be painful, just bear with it."
Ling Lang didn't say a word, just nodded.
When Pei Xiqing opened his eyes, he saw this scene and hurried over to help.
Qiu Chao's injuries were also not light.
Several people worked for half a day before they managed to stabilize their injuries.
Pei Xiqing hurriedly checked Duan Xiaolin again: "Brother Duan, if you are injured, just tell me directly, don't hide it..."
Duan Xiaolin held her hand and said, "Touch your chest again? See if there are any injuries?"
Pei Xiqing glared at him: "It's already this late and you still have the mind to joke around."
She looked down at herself, "I don't have any injuries on my body."
Qiu Chao's faint voice came over: "If you can be injured, it only means that the crystal cores in your body are useless and can't even protect the master."
Ji Yao tied her hair up with a rubber band. "Let's quickly discuss what to do next. These parasites seem endless, endless and stubborn. Qiu Chao, we're almost done with the supplies you brought. If they come back a few more times, we won't be able to withstand them."
Everyone agreed: "These parasites must have some weaknesses. We can't keep attacking them like this. There are too many of them."
"But what is the weakness?"
This made everyone think.
What exactly is the parasite afraid of?
At this time, the man spoke: "They are afraid of beings stronger than themselves."
"Hmm?" Pei Xiqing turned around.
Duan Xiaolin just moved his fingers.
There was an unusual movement not far away.
He asked, "Remember the Hydra from before?"
"Remember."
He stared at the shaking ground in the distance.
“It’s coming.”
Pei Xiqing was a little surprised: "Why is it here?"
The man laughed: "There's always the possibility that we'll actually die here."
Pei Xiqing instantly thought of what the old man had said in the ghost village before.
There is a parasite that cannot be killed, it is one with Brother Duan's life.
She said quickly: "Then it must not die."
The man nodded: "I know."
Pei Xiqing looked at him, feeling increasingly uneasy.
Qiu Chao: "Too much! The leader of these parasites is here! Let's see how long these parasites can keep shouting!"
Turning back, he saw Xiao Yu, who had mutated once more, running towards him. He clapped his hands excitedly, "Use parasites to fight parasites! We are all idiots! Why use manpower? No matter how powerful we are, we are still human. How can we be a match for so many parasites!"
Everyone stood up because of the change in the situation.
They all looked into the distance.
Pei Xiqing also stood up. Seeing Xiao Yi running towards him, he quickly called out to stop her: "Baby, don't rush too hard!"
Xiao Yi still failed to brake and directly knocked Qiu Chao away.
In the serious battle, there was a rare funny thing, and everyone laughed non-stop.
Qiu Chao got up from the ground: "Little Yi!"
The little one mutated after eating a parasite. We hadn't seen him for a few days, but now he's back.
Pei Xiqing rubbed its head lovingly, feeling that it was almost eating itself into a big fat man.
"Baby."
The little girl rubbed against her feet obediently.
"It's too fast! We have the help of the parasite! Everything will change!"
Everyone was even more excited and their morale soared when they saw Xiao Yi's return and the Hydra not far away.
After a short rest, everyone prepared to face the next wave of parasites.
This time with Xiao Yi and Hydra, they are even more fearless.
Pei Xiqing loosened Xiao Yi's rope and glanced at the man beside him, "Brother Duan, we will get through this safely."
The man held her hand tightly: "I will."
But man proposes, God disposes.
