Chapter 870 Pupa Channel
Just looking at the moving speed of those red dots, Mu Fan knew what it was without black reminders.
"Flying Wyvern!"
"The preliminary calculation number exceeds 500! The drone has been caught up."
In Hei's angry voice, the monitoring areas divided on the light curtain went out piece by piece.
"Based on the provisional data, these flying pterosaurs came out of the deep area, and 82.1% of our whereabouts may have been exposed."
"Sit still, I will control those drones to distract those bugs. These bugs have successfully angered Mr. Hei, and dare to demolish my base!"
Mu Fan only felt a strong push back from behind, and the originally quiet aircraft suddenly erupted with a strong vibration, the tail engine turned from dark to bright, and the scout ship, which no longer concealed its whereabouts, turned around and slammed towards the rear.
At this moment, those drones that originally flew towards the scout ship all turned around and rushed towards the flying pterosaur. The silver-white drone and the brown flying pterosaur intersected instantly, and an overwhelming green corrosive liquid enveloped them. The man-machine just fired the missiles below and detonated it in the air, and it was completely corroded.
The brown flying pterosaurs gathered in a group suddenly scattered, and a violent explosion exploded in the air, but these highly maneuverable Zergers dodged lightly, and only a small part was swallowed by the raging fire.
Burning limbs fell from midair like a rain of fire.
These fast-flying Zeeg quickly looked cruelly at the remaining drones, and then flew up while waving their wings.
Until this moment, Hei's goal was finally achieved, and these drones bought precious time for the evacuation of the reconnaissance ship.
Turning into a streamer of scouting ships, it confuses its route with continuous semi-arc turns.
Without the vision of the drone, this endless virgin forest instantly becomes a huge maze.
Hei and Mu Fan in the sky no longer knew what threats lurked in the dense forest below.
What's more, when they went away, there was a sharp and fierce cry from the depths of the dense primeval forest.
Thirty minutes later, the reconnaissance ship flew over more than ten kilometers away from the temporary base. The monitoring equipment on the bottom armor clearly captured the situation there, and then presented it to Mu Fan.
The originally huge temporary base has long since disappeared, and a radial scorched ruin spread out around the base.
The scorched black ruins were still covered with viscous green liquid, and there was no reflection of metal at all.
On the outside of the ruins, there is a faint brown Zeger creep, but there is still half a bug on it.
Even the entrance to the cave that Mu Fan had seen on the surveillance camera disappeared at this moment.
As if it had never appeared before.
This makes the Zeger hidden in the primeval forest another layer of mystery.
"The corridors of the Zege clan... This is the existence that my lord is most worried about." Hei's voice was filled with deep worry.
"What's the meaning?"
"The tunnel you saw just now, if it is fixed, I'm afraid it's okay to say that it's just a burrow dug by ordinary Zeger. However, the kind of crypt that can transport countless bugs in an instant can only be done by that kind of bug. It's not an ordinary cave..."
"What kind of bug?"
"Pupa." Hei's voice was dignified. In Mohanda's shared memory, this kind of thing is not very powerful but extremely threatening.
In other words, when this kind of creature appears, we can know that those bugs are definitely not low-level creatures that only rely on limb evolution, but a kind of supernatural technology that humans and even the Mohanda race do not possess.
"This kind of chrysalis passage has not been seen a few times in the cosmic plane where I am. On the contrary, Mohanda is more familiar with it in years of fighting."
"What is a chrysalis, are their passages special?" The scouting ship had already started to take off away from the temporary base, but the images were still frozen in front of Mu Fan, and he looked at the light curtains with a frown.
"This is a high-level Zerg that basically has no attack power and looks like a giant leech."
"They possess certain unknown technologies. For example, humans can use the warp drive to make space transitions. The tunnels dug by these chrysalis are equivalent to miniaturizing the wormholes in the interstellar space and actually using them on the battlefield." Black He gave an answer that Mu Fan sounded like a fantasy.
And Mu Fan frowned, and asked in a deep voice: "You mean if you really dig under those passages, there might not be such normal potholes at all!?"
"That's right! This is a capability similar to fixed-point space teleportation developed by the Zeggers themselves. It doesn't have the exaggerated distance and efficiency of the human spaceship's transition capability, but the advantage is obvious, that is, it can instantly transfer or transport a large number of Zeggers."
"In that case, this ability is too exaggerated. If it was directly developed in the base before, wouldn't everyone be dead?"
"In theory, this is the case, but the actual situation is that there are mandatory restrictions on distance and creep. Those chrysalis must have come to the vicinity of the temporary base under cover before building such a passage. The key point is that this kind of chrysalis is not a problem The key, the key is why Zegg of this strategic level appeared on Planet 131!"
Hei's words instantly reminded Mu Fan, and he and Hei said in unison, "Unless there are higher-level bugs in it!"
"That's right, this is the only explanation. According to the location where those flying pterosaurs appeared, it can be deduced that there must be a high-level Zeger inside."
"...Maybe a giant corrupter!"
"Or a higher level."
"In short, now we have to return to the shadow base, and I'm afraid we will have to face each other head-on."
The arc-flying scout ship finally left the unknown forest safely, and the sea-like red vegetation in the Red Valley looked so friendly at this moment.
The Shadow Base, which stands like a towering castle on the plain, is constantly rumbling.
A large number of high crystal stones are constantly pouring into the base on the conveyor belt.
As soon as the scout ship landed, Mu Fan's figure disappeared into the base.
...
At this time, in space about 150,000 kilometers away from Landu Star, a lifeless transport ship had just extinguished all its engines, hovering motionless in the universe.
There were no signs to be seen on the gray hull shell, and even inside the hull, all the corridors and halls were empty without a single figure.
As for the central control command room, there is only one huge light curtain flickering at this moment.
A line of red text is displayed on the light curtain:
[Auto cruise destination has arrived, waiting to receive. 】
This is obviously a spaceship that has been set to automatically cruise.
If a star thief appeared nearby at this time and tried to board the ship, you would be surprised to find that it was unimpeded.
Could it be that this ship was deliberately abandoned here?
But the cost of such an ordinary transport spaceship starts at 50 million yuan.
If you noticed the steel giant lying quietly in the cabin, then the price would probably be more than dozens of times higher.
This area is tens of thousands of kilometers away from the normal channel. Because of the harsh celestial environment, few spacecraft will pass here.
However, at this moment, eight small black hulls suddenly appeared from nearby, and they sailed towards the transport ship together.
Front, rear, left, and right, it is divided into four directions in an instant and sticks to the silent hull at the same time.
