Chapter 8 Unlocking the Spinal Needle Crawler
The stone bridge was extremely slippery, and the excrement of rock insects could be seen everywhere. Tang Fang carefully controlled his steps and walked forward slowly.
After a while, the woman stuck her head out of the hole, looked at the environment below, and frowned. Seeing Tang Fang go to the bridge, she hesitated, just about to follow suit, not wanting to be interrupted by the voice behind her.
"Wait, wait until he gets to the other side before you go to the bridge."
The woman glanced at the person behind her unexpectedly: "I thought you didn't care about anything."
"His personality suits me very much." Aros said, looking at Tang Fang on the stone bridge.
"What did you two say?" At this moment, the three guys at the back also caught up. They looked at the situation outside the cave, and their faces became a little ugly.
The woman and Aros fell silent again, and the three of them couldn't help laughing awkwardly.
The man with a scar on the corner of his mouth glanced at Tang Fang on the stone bridge, took two steps forward without realizing it, and walked up the stone bridge in small steps. Aros frowned, but did not stop him.
After another walk, Tang Fang raised his head and glanced straight ahead. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Even though the stone bridge was not wide, it was still solid. As long as he had a good balance, it would not be difficult to walk across it in one go.
"Hey, boss, guess who I saw?" Just as he stopped to think, he heard an excited shout coming from the opposite side.
Then, the dazzling light flashed, and Grosso's low and hoarse voice came: "Isn't this your Excellency Commander?"
"You have an old saying in China, 'Meeting is fate', I have a gift, I hope Your Excellency Commander can accept it with a smile, hahahaha..." Along with his wild laughter, a high-explosive grenade rolled down the stone bridge.
"Lawrence, blow up the other end, otherwise, next time we meet, I will cut off your head with one knife."
As soon as Grosso's voice fell, the man who had just boarded the bridge twitched, his eyes flashed fiercely, he reached into his waist, also took off a high-explosive grenade, and rolled on the spot.
"Boom, boom." A dazzling flash illuminated behind him. A powerful explosion split the stone bridge into three, and his feet slanted. Tang Fang's footing was unstable, and the whole person fell downward.
"Hahahaha." In the shaking of the light, he heard the laughter of Grosso and others, and also saw the blood spattered by the woman cutting Lawrence's throat with a knife.
"Puff puff."
Countless stones fell into the pool, Tang Fang turned his gun, and the light swept across the platform covered with insect eggs on one side.
Just as he had determined the position of the platform, and was about to swim over as soon as he fell into the water, escaping from the killing area of the broken bridge, suddenly, a splash of water appeared on the surface of the pool, and a black shadow several meters long suddenly jumped up and shot straight at him. bite.
There was a rush of wind in his ears, and the stench hit his face. Tang Fang was taken aback and hurriedly turned the muzzle of his gun. Under the light, a xenogeneic creature with a body like a snake but a shark-like head was opening its mouth wide and moving towards him. Bite the head.
Obviously, the guy regarded him as a delicious meal, and even if he risked being crushed to death by the broken bridge, he would have to swallow him.
Either being smashed or swallowed, Tang Fang had no other choice at all. While shooting, he exhaled the system screen in his mind.
One, two, three, three ripples swayed in the air.
"Buzz."
Accompanied by a sharp insect chirping, three vicious winds blew past, and a puppy directly grabbed the water monster's shark head, and its sharp claws easily pierced the tough outer skin.
Deep into the body of the water monster.
The other two puppies also pounced on the water monster, their claws moving in unison, opening wounds dripping with purple bodily fluids on its body.
"hold head high."
The water monster made a scream like a dragon's roar, twisted its body hard, raised its long tail, and suddenly stabbed a puppy on its back.
"Huh..." There was a scream, the body fluid splashed, and the puppy was stabbed in the opposite direction by the tail of the water monster.
It wasn't until then that Tang Fang could see the full face of the Qingshui Monster. It actually had two tails, one was shaped like a fish's tail fin, and the other was shaped like a scorpion's tail needle.
"Pfft."
Tang Fang fell into the water pool, and the stones that fell from a height of more than ten feet fell around him, splashing countless water splashes.
He didn't dare to pause at all, and swam quickly towards the platform, even if a stone hit him and the pain was unbearable, even if there was a second puppy screaming from behind, there was only one belief in his mind, he couldn't hesitate, don't look back, Escape and live!
"Wow, wow."
The water monster behind him stirred up a large amount of water, and the last puppy was finally thrown off by it.
"click"
A green body fluid spewed from the crevices of the jagged teeth.
"hold head high."
An angry dragon yin came. Yuemo had escaped from the reach of the broken bridge. Tang Fang turned his gun and looked back.
The water monster's jet-black eyes flashed with hatred, roared towards his back, slapped the water with its tail fin, and rushed towards him again.
Tang Fang narrowed his eyes, but did not move.
"Boom."
With a loud bang, water splashed all over the sky, and the broken bridge that was ten feet long smashed down, setting off a huge wave on the surface of the pool.
"hold head high……"
The continuous dragon roar came, and then gradually weakened. After a while, with the surging waves, a strange color appeared a few meters in front of Tang Fang.
It was the water monster, but at this moment, its head was smashed, and a dead fish floated on the water.
Tang Fang let out a long sigh, but fortunately he hid quickly, otherwise, he would end up like it.
Although his life was saved, unfortunately, all three puppies died. When falling from the bridge, the crystal value changed three times in a row, from 31 to 46, a full increase of 15 points. Tang Fang knew that Aros must have killed all three of them.
But there was one other thing that made him very strange. After the death of the water monster in front of him, he failed to collect life energy. After hesitating again and again, he decided to swim over to have a look.
Buckling a fragmentation grenade from his waist, he swam forward boldly.
The water monster floated and sank with the waves, without the slightest movement.
After a few breaths, he came to the body of the water monster. After confirming that it was really dead, Tang Fang stretched out his right hand and touched its wound.
"Zerg DNA sequence detected."
"Reorganize the genetic structure, gene level E+, unlock the research tree, technology level 1, unlock the building 'Spine Crawler'."
"Life energy collection completed, the number is 100."
Unlock the building "Spine Crawler", life energy 100?
Tang Fang was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help laughing out loud. This is really a blessing in disguise. 3 puppies died, in exchange for a new building, plus 100 life energy, no matter how you look at it, it is a profit, or a big profit.
Spinal Needle Crawler: consumes 100 crystals and has 300 HP, which is nearly 10 times that of a puppy. It builds armor, has strong attacks, and does not occupy units.
The only downside is that it moves slowly and only works on ground defenses. However, for the current Tang Fang, the spine crawler is much more useful than the puppy. He is equivalent to a mobile base. After his second correction, the problem of slow speed is obviously not a disadvantage.
However, adding these 100 points, the crystal value is only 146. Spine crawlers must be hatched by worker bees. The first worker bee was used by him to build the splitting pool. Now, he must re-incubate a worker bee, which will cost 150 crystals to go back and forth.
