Chapter 373: 1 minute and 2 and a half, 4 smoke signals
Lin Heng leaped into the tunnel. The insects that were climbing inside roared one after another. They probably didn't expect to see such a situation, so they turned around and followed him.
But they underestimated the strength of the party involved. The small fireball that appeared out of nowhere was like a thorn in the flesh. The swarm of insects didn't even look and rushed into it head-on, but they didn't expect that the flame would not go out.
Amid the howling, all the insects that came into contact with the 'plague gangrene' had their spines burned through, and apart from twitching, they could only be devoured by their own brothers.
Several large digging pythons broke out of the ground and attacked the follower insect Licarat that was blocking the road with thunder, but in this ten-meter-wide tunnel, no creature could escape Lin Heng's perception.
The real thunder shot out azure arcs, illuminating the endless insects in the dark tunnel.
The human-shaped plasma point electric ball melted everything, followed closely by the commander's blade filled with psychic energy. Any insects lucky enough to survive were unfortunately hit again.
After three to five hundred cuts, the titanium clan's metal knife suddenly broke. Lin Heng had no choice but to jump out of his combat uniform and take out the "End" that was waiting to drink blood from his "space pocket".
Lin Heng conducted many experiments with his psychic skills, and in the end, he found that the flow of life energy, that is, the plague pollution of the Second Evil God, was extremely effective in dealing with the insect swarms. It was even more powerful when combined with the fire control system. Otherwise, any remaining biomass would be recycled to forge new insects.
And when the end was in hand and the entropy-increasing force field was activated, the flow of life energy around him became more obvious. Lin Heng silently stared at the two bright evil god symbols above the corners of his eyes.
Although he knew that each of them represented a source of power, the price behind it was unimaginably high. The power he obtained represented a gift from the gods.
Power naturally attracted Lin Heng, but it also deepened his connection with the evil god. This really confirmed what the Grey Knight said, that the gifts of the Warp are never free.
"Buzz!"
The phase force field was activated, and he charged into the swarm alone. No insect could stop him, and with the continuous feedback from the "psychic detection", Lin Heng finally caught up with the burrowing worm.
It took the other side less than two hours to dig a 500-kilometer-long tunnel a hundred meters underground. In addition to a large number of Zerg units used for combat, there were more non-combat creatures that transformed the planet.
The chitinous chimneys spewing spores, the secretions that looked like duckweed and were still wriggling, and the tens of thousands of long and thin tunnels made Lin Heng feel like he was walking in the blood vessels of some large creature.
The defenders in the blood vessels, after continuously swallowing various missiles and becoming more lengthy, the burrowing worms felt the strange vibrations behind them, and then they let out bursts of roars, contacting the underground swarm of insects.
Although the burrowing worm has no eyes, it can sense vibrations up to hundreds of kilometers away. As Lin Heng got closer and closer, it gradually realized that a powerful hunter on the planet seemed to have appeared.
"钪嘡钪嘡..." Dozens of digging blades that were as strong as fine gold could dig out dozens of cubic meters of soil and rocks each time they were swung. The burrowing worms turned around and faced Lin Heng.
Lin Heng, who was hundreds of meters away, also stopped at this moment. The man and the worm silently felt each other's situation. The burrowing worm listened to the beating of the two hearts, while Lin Heng stretched out his spiritual energy to circle around the other party.
“Plop.”
In an instant, Lin Heng and the burrowing worm moved at the same time, and the accumulated spiritual energy shot out like a needle tip, and the "soul shock" directly passed through the protection of the chitinous shell and hit the nerve center of the worm. With a painful roar, the worm twisted its violent body, and the gravel in the corridor rolled with a clang.
Lin Heng took a deep breath, spiritual energy surged, cold wind whistled, and thick frost formed under his feet. After a "transformation", his body broke through the five-meter mark, and the two-meter-long two-handed sword "End" could now be grasped in one hand.
The sword pointed at the trembling dark tunnel, and "mental suggestion" was added layer by layer. Phase and entropy increase force fields were accumulated layer by layer. The extreme silence was for the next explosion.
"Ah!"
The ground was shattered layer by layer, and Lin Heng shot towards the hissing insect repellent with thunder. Two two-meter-wide digging blades crossed in front of him, and the mouthparts hidden behind them were also one of the most powerful weapons.
"Ding!"
A crisp collision sound was heard, but the answer was not that the two were evenly matched. In the next millisecond, the decomposition force field of the digging blade was defeated by the phase force field of the end.
The subsequent "hissing" sound demonstrated the ease of a knife cutting tofu. The two huge digging blades were cut in half. Within the next millisecond, the broken gaps were rusted under the action of the entropy increase field.
The worm roared again but before it could open its mouth, Lin Heng, who had the "copper skin and iron bones", hit it in the face with his feet.
"Click!"
Two clearly visible footprints were left on the thick shell, and although Lin Heng's legs were not broken, the capillaries on the surface were bleeding under the impact.
With such a loud bang, Lin Heng, whose weight was a hundred times less, naturally flew backwards, his "Flame Jet" burst into flames, and he decelerated in the air and flew back again.
'Soul Shock' took advantage of the opportunity and the worm's momentum was immediately reduced. Its right arm spun out like a full moon and finally shot towards the worm's head with a whoosh.
Lin Heng stretched out his hands to grab the void, pulling downwards as if he was dragging something weighing thousands of pounds. With a "boom", the tunnel with the crystal layer suddenly shattered, and large pieces of earth and rocks directly pressed towards the worm.
The sword finally arrived at the target and shot into the insect's head with a "swoosh". The chitinous shell did not offer any obstruction. The weapon was too sharp and it was difficult to control the force as it passed through the object silently. It brought out the cerebrospinal fluid and shot into the soil.
Unfortunately, cutting off some nerve centers won't do anything, as the opponent has hundreds of nerve control centers. Even if you knock off a part of the spine, the opponent will not die.
Perhaps thinking that the guy opposite had strange abilities, the worm began to spin like a drill, wheezing straight up to the ground.
Lin Heng quickly transformed his spiritual energy into a chain and hooked it onto the moving worm to try to stop it from leaving. If it really reached the ground, it would be difficult to deal with this guy with its flexibility.
But although the idea is good, the reality is cruel. Insects are already extremely powerful, not to mention a 5-60 meter long digging python.
As the tail hammer of the bone spur smashed back and forth, Lin Heng, who wanted to pull, was dragged over by the other party instead. He hurriedly recalled the End that had flown a hundred meters away.
He broke out of the ground with one hand, flew forward, grabbed the ferocious tail hammer with his left hand, and chopped down with his right sword. But the worm's attack came later but it arrived first, and the tail hammer brought Lin Heng into the tunnel with a bang.
Even though Lin Heng's 'copper skin and iron bones' had strengthened his body layer by layer, the sharp bone spurs still pierced into his flesh and blood due to the huge difference in strength.
Fortunately, the bone plate on the chest blocked the attack, and the back hand swung at this moment. With a "pop" sound and a full sense of damping, the bone hammer was separated from the insect tail.
The worm finally dug through the ground while screaming in pain, and Lin Heng put the bone hammer into his "space pocket" while performing "regenerative treatment".
The worm on the soil surface was hitting the ground with its broken tail, probably using the vibrating sound waves to determine its position.
Groups of gargoyles and Tyranids had already arrived above the huge cave entrance, and a few warrior bugs and a group of knife bugs were poking their heads out from the cave entrance. As a result, a raging fire spurted out the next second, and the "Breath of Flame" directly burned them.
The insects, with half of their bodies charred and melted, wailed. Those that didn't die immediately could only watch as a pair of large feet crushed their torsos.
The blind worms kept slapping the ground, and a large number of worms began to gather here, ready to swallow the target person.
It is estimated that the number of insect swarms in the node is increasing. The burrowing worm seems to make a very human "hissing" sound, as if saying, "What can you do to me, there are so many insects?"
Lin Heng breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that if he stayed underground, it would be difficult for him to control it, but now that you jumped out by yourself, he could use something else.
As the thunder surged, Lin Heng ran backwards happily. The groups of Zerg quickly raised their heads and looked back at the worms. The other side also noticed that the vibration was getting farther away, and roared and ordered a pursuit.
The huge swarm of insects started running. Lin Heng closed his hands and looked at the deceived insects. Suddenly, a strange dislocation appeared in the empty environment behind him.
Then he suddenly opened his hands, and the place where the space was folded opened instantly. The gloomy power of the subspace spread quietly, and the huge mecha inside flew into the sky, followed by the sound of AI in the air.
[AI Fenglinhuoshan receives the command, target the burrowing worm, heavy plasma fusion cannon is fully charged, open fire! ]
A large plasma projectile was fired out of the barrel, hitting the worm head-on. Its lizard-like skin instantly melted, and its left fang turned into molten slag. The missiles that followed blew the worm away, and it rolled and crawled.
The portable shield generator withstood the fire from hundreds of insect guns, and the heavy rapid-fire cannon flying between heaven and earth plowed the ground, helping Lin Heng clear a smooth path.
The plague devil wind howled, Lin Heng rode the wind and controlled the ground to harden and shrink, and the psychic barrier rushed up against the artillery fire.
The worm was startled, stomping on the ground and tumbling like a full moon. It used the acceleration of centrifugal force to smash the ground with a "bang" like a house collapsing. I'm afraid that the knight's mecha would be smashed to pieces and completely scrapped.
But such a powerful attack did not hit Lin Heng. He was extremely calm and saw the future three seconds later, and saw the three possible attacks of the worm.
'Uncertain Imbalance' evaded into the ground, and then 'Control Earth to Form a River' rose from the ground, and the end with a glowing black light cut into the carapace of the creature that had landed on the ground, and it passed through with a "puff" sound.
The worm twisted and the earth shook. This guy was too thick and solid. Even if the two-meter-long sword penetrated him completely, it would at most destroy some muscle tissue and it was still a long way from the real nerve center.
It doesn’t matter. If one knife doesn’t work, then use eighteen knives!
"Swish, swish, swish." Two oblique wounds and one horizontal wound penetrated three inches into the flesh. The M-shaped wound immediately showed signs of withering, and the debris on the shell peeled off layer by layer.
The roots of the three digging blades turned gray and withered. The worm still wanted to swing the digging blades, but the muscles responsible for controlling them had already atrophied by half.
The worm turned over, curled up, and rushed towards Lin Heng frantically in an attempt to get rid of him, but the next second the plasma missile accurately hit the M-shaped wound.
With one shot, the shell melted and the flesh became bloody. As the worm tumbled, Lin Heng leaped up, controlling the size of his body in the air, passing through the layers of rotating digging blades, and stabbed into the worm's wound.
Lin Heng didn't need to do anything and the worms moved automatically. The muscles contracted and cut themselves, and the withered flesh opened up a larger gap.
Flames spurted out from behind, pushing Lin Heng to prevent him from being thrown away. He held the sword in both hands and drilled into his flesh and began to chop. "Puff crackle" the sky and the earth spun.
The worm rolled over in pain, and Lin Heng also enlarged his body and spun around, wheezing as he tore a piece of the burrowing worm's flesh and blood.
The rotten pieces of flesh formed gaps, and the body without the support of internal flesh and blood began to twist under the impact and tumbling, and the chitinous shell could not withstand such torment.
With the attack from Lin Heng and Jiliu's combat suits from inside and outside, there was a "click" sound, and half of the body was broken.
Lin Heng put away the End, inserted his hands into his flesh and blood, and tightly grasped the bundle of nerve fibers as thick as his arms. He wandered in the subspace and absorbed spiritual energy like a dragon sucking water. Then a surge of energy roared out, and the "soul pulse" was infused into the entire insect body.
A light blue halo shone from each small wound. Under the endless impact of spiritual energy, the burrowing worm's nerve center gradually collapsed. It began to break piece by piece from head to tail, and after twenty to thirty seconds of "bang bang" sounds.
The earth finally calmed down, and the surviving insect swarms seemed to have sensed something. The huge curled up corpses even stopped twitching, and a new round of command was handed over to the node creatures of a lower level.
"KAAAZAAA!"
【力量:2172+904 反应:1070+310 能量:+1098】
But when the butcher, covered in blood, walked out of the huge insect body, the sense of danger he exuded made the insect swarm retreat again.
Lin Heng was panting. He felt that he smelled terrible, even more disgusting than the vomit of those plague bearers. It must be the side effect of the backlash of psychic energy, but it seemed to have a positive effect.
The swarm of insects retreated, and the Torrent combat suit slowly fell to the ground. Lin Heng adjusted his body and jumped into it. Fuyi Po was still in danger, and killing just one large node creature was far from enough.
"Connect to the Ethernet city signal base station, and all you have to do is send the signal."
【clear】
The psychic energy followed the signal and flew to the base station. After a search in the site database, two minutes later, Lin Heng was connected to the command center of the City of Ether.
"I'm Lin Heng. How is the city now?"
"How did you connect... Never mind, a large swarm of insects launched a charge towards the West City. The city wall has not been breached yet but a large number of insects have already started killing people in the city."
"Where's Lin Luoba?"
"Commander Lin Luoba is driving the xv88's broadside gun towards West City!"
