Chapter 668 The Power of Giant Insects and the Real Danger
Next to the World Tree of the survivors.
The giant insects actually completely surrounded the World Tree as the survivors had guessed.
During this time, it gradually approached Crystal City as it traveled.
And when its tail completely emerged from the ground, everyone felt suffocated.
It turned out to be more than twenty kilometers long!
Then, like an ouroboros, it completely enveloped the entire Crystal City inside.
The two-hundred-meter-tall body is like an extremely thick and tall city wall, protecting the entire Crystal City.
What is the concept of a two-hundred-meter-tall insect body?
When the World Tree first matures, the top of its crown is only two hundred meters high!
Fortunately, after several days of growth, the height of this World Tree has grown again, reaching about 230 meters, barely a head taller than the giant insect.
But... the height of the lower edge of the World Tree's crown is only seventy or eighty meters!
In other words, this giant insect's body of more than 200 meters, combined with the crown of the World Tree, completely enveloped the entire Crystal City under the World Tree!
In the process, the giant insect withstood countless attacks.
The legions of alien invaders were throwing ammunition at the giant insect like they were free of charge!
But in the end, little was achieved.
The giant insect's recovery power is really too strong. These ammunition are sprinkled on the giant insect's body and have no effect at all. The giant insect even doesn't even bother to look at it. It doesn't even react at all. It's just minding its own business. Surround the world tree.
The alien invaders have also stopped attacking and are not even approaching.
Their troops have maintained a ten-kilometer front line and have not moved at all.
And those dinosaur armies that came from afar and wanted to attack the World Tree had already been bombarded by missiles, and only a few of them were left.
In the Crystal City, the giant beasts whose sight was completely blocked by the giant insects were lying on the ground, looking very well-behaved.
They were originally responsible for fighting under the World Tree. If the enemy breaks into the World Tree, nuclear missiles will naturally no longer be able to be used. This will require the help of these behemoths that can quickly recover from the Crystal City, as well as the petrified behemoths that can be completely restored even if they are broken.
But now, these giant beasts have been completely surrounded by the bodies of giant insects.
"what is happening……"
Changyin was currently in a crystal room on the periphery.
Because of the super strength of the Crystal Room, even though he had been here during the battle just now and countless missiles exploded in the Crystal City, he was not affected at all.
At this time, he was looking at the giant, milky-white insect body surrounding the World Tree by the window.
He climbed out of the window, held up his hands, and climbed directly onto the roof of the Crystal House, standing on it to carefully observe the surrounding situation.
The fighting outside seems to have stopped, and they... are they completely protected?
"This giant insect... was the giant insect that was in the prison laboratory at that time? Was it... so big at that time?"
…
Inside the World Tree, everyone was stunned by this situation.
Everyone looked at each other, then looked at Ji Chaoyang and the others.
They didn't know what to do in this inexplicable situation.
"It... really wants to protect us." Qi Xuefei said softly.
A slightly relaxed smile appeared on Ji Chaoyang's lips: "This is a great thing for us. With it, we can definitely delay it for a longer time."
"It's so big..." Qin Yunlong looked at the giant insect outside that was almost as tall as the World Tree and more than 20,000 meters long. "It seems like these alien invaders can't break it at all." Defensively, we are already in an invincible position, right?"
"This is a bit too optimistic." Qi Xuefei looked at the army of alien invaders that had temporarily stopped moving ten kilometers away. "The reason why the opponent couldn't break through its defenses is because the missiles fired by the opponent just now were not very powerful. .”
Yes, the weapons used by the alien invaders in their attack just now were all conventional weapons.
It can't be said that it is not powerful, but for this ten-thousand-meter giant insect, it is simply scratching an itch.
"Perhaps those are not conventional weapons." Ji Chaoyang put forward a different point of view, "You have forgotten that the missiles they attacked us all contained agents that could wither the World Tree. They were specially designed to attack the World Tree. The missiles they use to hit the trees. And the missiles they use to hit the giant insects also contain some medicine."
"Yes, I saw it." Qin Yunhu, who had been silent all the time, said, "The red potion."
"Red potion? Isn't that blood..." Qin Yunlong was a little surprised.
"How can the blood of insects be red?" Ji Chaoyang shook his head, "I just observed it carefully. The blood of giant insects is the same as insects, it is colorless. Those red liquids, maybe... are meant to make the giant insects... Insects are contaminated.”
Blood red pollution.
It's obvious.
The shells that the alien invaders just fired at the giant insects may contain a potion that can mutate the creatures into blood-striped mutant creatures!
but……
Even the indiscriminate bombardment just now did not have the slightest impact on this giant insect.
It still has a bright milky white color on its body.
The abdomen of the insect, which is close to the ground and used for wriggling, is brown.
It was just such a giant insect that looked ordinary except for its huge size, strolling through the hail of bullets just now.
Even the medicine that mutates blood patterns has no effect on it.
"Now...what should we do?"
Although the World Tree is wrapped and the outside scene can no longer be seen from the Crystal City under the World Tree, everyone on the console can still observe the outside situation at will.
Everyone in World Tree has not taken action for a long time.
The army of alien invaders outside had not made any move for at least ten minutes.
Ten minutes in the outside world, sixteen or seventeen hours have already passed in the World Tree.
Even the people who control the external weapons of the World Tree to attack outwards have taken this opportunity to change a group. After all, the first group of people have persisted for several days and it is time to rest.
"Should we take the opportunity to attack them, or should we continue to wait?" Qi Xuefei asked.
"...What do you think?" Ji Chaoyang asked.
"My opinion is..." Qin Yunlong touched his chin, "Just keep waiting. Isn't our mission to delay time? You also said before that if we launch an attack, we will provoke another fight and speed up the fight. The pace of progress.”
"But, the situation is different now." Qin Yunhu disagreed, "We have giant insects. Now the opponent can't cause harm to us for the time being, and now it is completely beneficial to us, why should we give up the attack?"
It seemed like this was the first time Qin Yunhu had spoken such a long sentence.
It seems that in his mind, now is the best time to attack.
but……
"In my opinion, the other party's current thoughts may be similar to ours." Ji Chaoyang said, "The other party is probably... delaying time."
They have never used higher-power weapons against giant insects, perhaps because... they didn't bring them.
Before the giant insects appeared, World Tree had already been fighting with them for an hour.
During this hour, the power of the weapons they used against World Tree was also somewhat subtle.
If it hits the World Tree, those weapons may still have a relatively strong effect, and may even make the World Tree wither.
But the World Tree was destroyed without hitting it. The power of those weapon explosions was really unflattering.
Not even as good as the conventional weapons they have, let alone the nuclear weapons they've been firing outwards.
If the opponent can attack with a nuclear weapon, even if it explodes outside Crystal City, it will have a great impact on World Tree and Crystal City, and may even directly affect the external weapons on the crown of World Tree.
But the opponent has never used powerful weapons, and has been launching missiles that can wither the World Tree. Unfortunately, one shot missed and all were intercepted.
Ji Chaoyang didn't believe that the other party didn't even have nuclear weapons, or weapons more powerful than nuclear weapons.
Then there is only one possibility.
They don't carry powerful weapons at all!
You can't blame them for being poorly prepared.
Their aircraft carried numerous missiles that could wither the World Tree, and they did not finish the attack for an hour.
This preparation is not insufficient.
They must have never thought that humans on Earth, who have been captives for thousands of years, can actually intercept missiles that exceed twenty times the speed of sound!
Moreover, now there is a giant insect that goes beyond common sense and chooses to help humans.
in this case……
"So, they may be... requesting support now?" Qi Xuefei said to herself.
"Yes." Ji Chaoyang nodded, "Their support is probably already on the way. And when their support arrives, the next battle will begin."
"Then let's do it now..."
"If my guess is correct, then of course we have to take action." Ji Chaoyang said, "Because, regardless of whether we take action or not, the other party will definitely take action as soon as more people are added, so why don't we take advantage of this opportunity? How about killing more enemies?"
"...Are our weapons still sufficient?" Qin Yunlong asked.
"There is enough. The survivors above are still making weapons as fast as possible." Ji Chaoyang checked the communication device, "We have not carried out attacks during this period, and the number of weapons in our hands now is even greater than at the beginning of the war. There is more than before. And our weapons raw materials have only been consumed less than 2%."
The people who control weapons here are all residents of the underground world, and there are basically no survivors. The reason is that all the survivors living in the World Tree are now in the tree house, using the super production capacity of the tree house to desperately Produce weapons.
Not stopping for a moment.
When Li Wenxi left, he also left too much raw materials, enough for them to squander for a long time.
"Then what are you talking about? Let's attack!"
…
"What did you say? Okay...I understand..."
In a world tree on the other side of the earth, Lao Yang was contacting his informant.
He had a look of disbelief on his face, and before he even hung up the call, he turned to look at Xu Xin and the others.
After Xu Xin entered the World Tree, he had already released everyone in the bracelet.
Except monsters.
Because the monster said that its existence may be noticed by the other party.
After all, it has half the blood of the other party, and the other party seems to be able to position its own people.
So it told Xu Xin and the others not to release it if it couldn't find its place.
If it goes somewhere, you can release it, and it can help draw some firepower.
"What's wrong? What news did you receive?" Wen Guixin asked in surprise, "What's your expression?"
Now everyone has left the underground world and entered the canopy of the World Tree.
The world tree here is completely different from their world tree. This world tree is just a very normal world tree, and the internal space is much smaller than their world tree.
And now, they are in a room in this world tree.
"The alien invaders...sent another part of their army." Lao Yang said in great surprise, "They actually sent additional troops. According to my intelligence, after this army was dispatched, the number of military forces stationed at the alien invaders' headquarters , I’m afraid it’s less than 10% of what it usually is.”
Less than one year old?
Suddenly, Xu Xin and the others also showed expressions of surprise and confusion.
"My mom, what did Brother Chaoyang and the others do?" Wang Lei exclaimed, "It's only been more than two hours, right? They beat the opponent so much that they increased their numbers? Did they kill all those guys in the past? ?”
"But doesn't it directly benefit us!" Zhao Xiaochuan clapped his hands with an excited look on his face, "Their headquarters' empty military power is our opportunity, isn't it? We can deal with them more easily!"
"Don't be too optimistic." Xu Xin reminded, "Even if there is less than 10% of the army, it is impossible for a few of us to defeat it. Our task is to sneak in. Of course, we will at least be a lot easier."
"But Ji Chaoyang and the others..." Li Wenxi frowned, "Why on earth did they... I'm a little worried that they won't be able to hold on for long..."
"It shouldn't be a problem, we are very well prepared." Wen Guixin said, "If things go wrong, we will have a way out."
The escape route is Shi Wanyun's World Tree.
"In short, our task here is to complete our mission quickly. The faster we go, the safer they will be." Xu Xin looked at Lao Huang: "When did the other party send out the second wave of troops?"
"Just now." Lao Yang said, "The order was issued half an hour ago. The assembly was just completed and they were preparing to...well, they have already set off. I'm afraid your companions are really in trouble."
Xu Xin pursed her lips. He really wanted to contact that side, but unfortunately, on the other side of the earth, they did not have the ability to send messages back.
Communication across half of the planet requires satellites, but now the earth's satellites are equipment of alien invaders, and they have no way to use them.
"How about..." Xu Ying, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said, "Shall I go back and take a look? I can teleport back directly. Now that I have been here, I can teleport back directly."
"No." Xu Xin stopped her immediately, "There is probably a war over there, and the World Tree over there is isolated from the outside. You cannot teleport directly into it. You can only teleport to the Crystal City. It is too dangerous. ”
"Yeah, it's better not to go back." Li Wenxi also said, "No matter what happens over there, we must complete our mission as quickly as possible!"
Xu Ying nodded slightly: "You are right, then..."
She took a deep breath, patted her face, and looked at everyone: "It's time for us to set off. Next, let's follow the plan! Next, is the truly dangerous action!"
