Chapter 1238 Evolved Cockroach Man
Yang Qingxue stood in front of the blocked cave entrance, frowned slightly, and whispered: "Here?"
Li Taihang nodded slightly: "Yes. I have sensed that only this road can lead to the crystal mine."
After that, he turned his head and looked at Li Qiang beside him, "Li Qiang, go and notify them to come over."
Li Qiang said without hesitation: "Okay, Captain."
Then he turned around and hurried to call people.
Not long after, Li Qiang hurried over with a group of soldiers.
"Hello, Captain Li, my name is Sun Mingqiang, the captain of the exploration team." A strong man came to Li Taihang and introduced himself.
"Hello! Captain Sun."
They were originally in the nest of the mutant cockroach man, struggling to find the location of the crystal mine.
When they heard Li Taihang say that he had found the entrance to the crystal mine, they couldn't wait to follow.
When everyone came up, Li Taihang pointed to the front and said: "It's here."
However, they soon discovered that the road here was blocked by rocks.
Sun Mingqiang couldn't help but say, "But, it's blocked here."
Li Taihang laughed: "It's them that are blocking the road. Just break the rocks here."
Sun Mingqiang nodded and said, "Okay."
It's not difficult for them to blow up these rocks.
They quickly installed the explosives and evacuated the scene as quickly as possible.
"Bang. Bang."
After a while, a dull sound came, as if the earth was shaking slightly.
When they looked over again, they saw that the rocks there had been blown to pieces, and the road was suddenly clear.
"Okay." Li Taihang said, "Then, let's go down here."
Li Taihang took the lead and led everyone to step into the newly opened passage.
After entering, everyone was surprised to find that there were mutant cockroaches here.
Those mutant cockroaches came to check because they heard the noise.
As soon as they saw them, they immediately made a shrill "squeak" sound and rushed towards them like a tide.
Sun Mingqiang didn't need Li Taihang to tell him, and shouted, "Shoot them."
The well-trained soldiers acted quickly. They raised their rifles without hesitation and shot directly at the mutant cockroaches rushing over.
"Bang, bang, bang."
The mutant cockroaches were shot one by one.
After a while, the bodies of mutant cockroaches were left on the ground.
They continued to move forward carefully.
But not long after walking, Li Taihang suddenly said again, "Stop."
Sun Mingqiang, who was leading the soldiers in front, stopped immediately and looked back at Li Taihang with a puzzled look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Sun Mingqiang just started to speak, but heard the movement in front.
"Captain." A soldier stretched out his hand and pointed to the front and shouted.
I saw a dazzling figure appear, and everyone looked closely and found that it was another mutant cockroach.
"Golden!" Li Qiang said in surprise.
However, this mutant cockroach was mysteriously golden all over.
Everyone was shocked when they saw it.
Li Taihang made a prompt decision and said, "Everyone, change to laser guns and prepare to shoot."
After hearing the words, the soldiers in front immediately put away their rifles and changed to laser pistols.
"Fire."
Following Li Taihang's order, everyone shot at the golden mutant cockroach man.
Lasers shot at the golden mutant cockroach man like sharp arrows, and cracks appeared on its body instantly.
However, this mutant cockroach man was extremely tenacious. Although he was covered with scars, he was not killed directly, but was beaten back repeatedly.
"Why is this cockroach man so tough?" Zhao Linlin said in surprise.
"Not only tough, but also resilient." Li Taihang found that the place where it was injured was actually recovering.
They soon found that the cockroach man who attacked this time was obviously much more difficult to deal with than before.
"Captain, what's going on?" Yang Qingxue asked anxiously.
Li Taihang stared at the golden mutant cockroach man and said coldly: "That's because it devoured its own kind and eventually evolved."
"What?"
"Eat its own kind?"
They all looked astonished.
"Stop talking, it's coming." Li Taihang said.
The golden cockroach man protected his body with his wings and then walked forward step by step.
"Keep shooting!" Li Taihang gave the order again.
The soldiers executed the order without hesitation, and the laser beams fell on the golden cockroach man like raindrops.
However, despite the increasing number of cracks on its body, it still stood tenaciously, without any signs of retreat or death.
"Captain, this is not a solution." Li Qiang said anxiously.
He could feel that this thing was very dangerous.
Li Taihang calmly observed the golden cockroach man and made a decision quickly: "Everyone pay attention, concentrate firepower on its head."
The soldiers immediately adjusted the shooting direction and focused the laser beam on the head of the golden mutant cockroach man.
Sure enough, under the intensive attack, the golden mutant cockroach began to retreat.
"Hit the joints."
Seeing that the head was protected, Li Taihang changed his words.
Everyone shot at its joints.
There was obvious damage to its joints, and its body was shaky.
Just when everyone thought they were about to succeed, an accident happened again.
"squeak!"
But they saw it emit a harsh hissing sound, which not only stung everyone's eardrums so much that they were unable to shoot, but also summoned a large number of mutated cockroaches from the surrounding darkness.
"Zhizhi."
They rushed towards everyone like a tide, making a creepy "squeaking" sound.
"Damn it!" Sun Mingqiang cursed, "Don't panic, everyone, keep your formation and keep shooting."
The soldiers reacted quickly and formed a defensive formation to resist the attack of the mutant cockroach people.
Those mutant cockroach people did not have as strong defense and recovery power as the golden cockroach people, and they were killed one by one.
The laser beams intertwined into a brilliant network of light in the darkness, blocking the mutated cockroaches at a certain distance.
However, there were too many mutant cockroaches, and they continued to attack the soldiers' defense lines one after another.
Gradually, the soldiers' physical strength and the energy of the laser gun began to show insufficient.
"Captain, we can't hold it anymore," a soldier shouted.
Li Taixing looked around anxiously. Suddenly, his eyes fell on a cave not far away.
"Everyone retreat to that cave!" Li Taihang ordered decisively.
The soldiers immediately turned around and retreated while fighting in the direction of the cave.
Under their stubborn resistance, they finally successfully retreated into the cave.
The mutated cockroaches wandered outside the cave for a while, seeming to be afraid of the cave and not daring to enter rashly.
When Li Taixing saw that they didn't come, he naturally knew why.
"Everyone, check the equipment." Sun Mingqiang said.
Li Taixing also said: "There is still a battle to be fought next."
"Yeah." Sun Mingqiang nodded.
The soldiers checked their equipment one after another. After some inspection, they found that most of the laser guns had little energy left.
They quickly recharged their portable batteries.
"Captain Li, what should we do next?" Sun Mingqiang asked.
Li Taixing glanced at the cave in front of him and said, "We can't go out. The cockroaches outside are blocking us. Let's move on."
"Okay." Sun Mingqiang nodded.
Then, everyone continued to move along the cave.
As they go deeper, the surrounding environment becomes more and more complex. The passage is filled with all kinds of strange rocks and caves, making people feel like they are in a maze.
"Captain, this seems to be a maze. Will we get lost?" a soldier said worriedly.
"What are you afraid of? Captain Li is here." Another soldier responded.
Sure enough, although they walked for a long time in this maze-like passage, with Li Taihang's guidance, they quickly reached the bottom.
"Captain, this cave is much more complicated than before." Zhao Hong said in a low voice.
"Obviously the cockroach people transformed this place." Li Taihang replied.
Finally, some faint light appeared in the passage ahead.
Yang Qingxue asked curiously: "What is that?"
Li Taihang said: "The light emitted by the crystal mine."
When everyone heard this, they immediately showed joy, quickened their pace, and walked towards the direction of the light.
As they got closer, the light grew brighter.
Finally, they came to a huge cave. One side of the cave is full of crystal mines.
Seeing these crystal ores emitting brilliant light, making people feel as if they were in a dream-like world, these people also stared straight ahead.
"So beautiful!"
"Finally found it!"
The crowd cheered.
However, their joy did not last long, as a low roar came from the depths of the cave.
"quack."
Everyone suddenly became nervous. They raised their weapons and looked in the direction of the sound.
They all looked warily into the depths of the cave.
After a while, a huge mutated creature slowly walked out from the depths of the cave.
"Fuck!"
When everyone saw this huge mutant creature, they were all dumbfounded.
"Black, giant cockroach?"
It is like a devil, coming out of the dark hell, exuding a frightening aura. Every time it takes a step, the ground trembles gently, as if it is knocking on the human heart, making people tremble.
Its eyes flashed red, making people shudder.
"What the hell is this?" the soldiers said in horror.
"Is this also a mutated cockroach man?"
"No, I should say giant cockroach, it just got bigger."
As if sensing the hostility of the crowd, it let out an angry roar and then charged towards the crowd.
It was extremely fast and arrived in front of everyone in an instant.
"Dodge quickly!" Li Taixing shouted.
But there was still a soldier who didn't react and stood there stupidly. Li Taixing knocked him down.
"Boom."
The giant cockroach hit the cave. Only then did everyone see its full face. It was as big as a bus and was very scary.
