On the planet Tikru Travis, about a hundred kilometers southeast of the small town of Maine, a huge army is rumbleing towards a mountain not far away.

In the air, the giant beast-class battleship Host drove forward slowly with the rolling clouds like thunder. Under its huge figure, various fighter jets, like hornets, flew up and down, and on the dark red ground that still emitted a fishy smell, the steel torrent composed of countless war chariots and mechas rolled up and down, rolling forward with a roar.

Travis is close to the capital of the Republic, Tico City, and is quite large. The town of Maine, located in the southeast, has long been turned into a dead city full of ruins by alien insects. In the west of the small town, between the dead trees and yellow leaves, you can vaguely see alien insect buildings that have also become ruins. Low and strange roars come from this mountain forest that makes people feel chilling.

The army with a strength of 100,000 or 200,000 troops was the first New Army task force established three days ago. It gathered almost all the elite main forces of the eighth and 10th Army groups. The mountainous land west of Maine town was swept away by the New Army's clearance troops not long ago, and seven or eight insect nest bases were washed away by the powerful firepower of the clearance troops.

Logically, there is no need for the new army to send such elite troops to sweep the mountain again, but everything changed after Haoyi and Rai reached a "deal".

The thunder, who was originally greedy for life and fear of death, rarely showed his unyielding worm bones under Haoyi's urge to die. Even though there was still a trace of doubt in his heart, Haoyi still chose to believe this brain worm with his life in his hand.

The "deal" proposed by Haoyi is very simple. As long as Lei personally takes action to help the new army eliminate the remaining insect swarms on the planet Tikru in the shortest time, he will return the insect swarm's heart to Lei. However, Lei proposed that he must first get back the heart of his insect swarm to restore his powerful psychic control ability over the insect swarm, otherwise, it will not be able to complete the task assigned by Haoyi.

Without much hesitation, Haoyi returned the heart of the insect swarm to Lei, and made an exception to order the removal of a micro controller transplanted into Lei's body. The controller was developed by white coats at the Longtan Base. It can accurately locate the location of the lightning and receive self-destruction instructions at any time, turning into a huge small bomb, whose explosion power is enough to smash the lightning into pieces.

Perhaps out of Haoyi's sense of trust, Lei immediately used his recovered spiritual perception ability to provide Haoyi with the approximate position coordinates of all existing insect groups on the planet Tikru.

Lei said that during the period when it was brought back to the Longtan base by Haoyi, although the insect swarms on the planet Tikru experienced the initial chaos and suffered heavy losses under the strong encirclement of new troops from various places, the number of insect swarms showed a rapid increase in the next less than half a month.

According to the analysis of Zhao Lei, it is because in order to evolve a new generation of brainworms, the insect swarm must not only withstand the continuous clearing and siege of the new army, but also do its best to restore its strength, so as to serve as the basis for the strength of the new brainworms. After some insect nest consciousness bodies with high evolutionary levels will rely on their own psychic control ability to swallow or control other insect consciousness bodies with slightly lower evolutionary levels, and then control a larger number of insect swarms.

Simply put, the insect swarm on the planet Tikru also had warlords similar to humans. The purpose of the melee was to evolve and give birth to a new brain worm. Because of this, the number of insect swarms had such an abnormal rebound.

The day after getting the Swarm Heart back, Lei, who had basically completely recovered his psychic control ability, gave another news that shocked Haoyi.

Lei said that the speed at which the Tikrut swarm evolved into new brainworms far exceeded its expectations. Not too far from Tiko City, a nest consciousness body became extremely powerful after devouring nearly a hundred similar species. Although the psychic control ability of the nest consciousness body is less than about 30% of that of Lei, with these 30% of the psychic control ability, it is enough to command an army of alien insects with a force of more than one million.

In other words, the last time the new army took advantage of the empty force of the new army to launch a large-scale raid on the city of Tiko City was very likely to be commanded by the insect nest consciousness body. On the entire planet of Tikru, there is only the evolution degree of this insect nest consciousness body, which is closest to the state of a brain worm. Although other insect nest consciousness bodies have also achieved a certain degree of evolution through devouring and other means, their evolution speed is far inferior to that of the insect nest consciousness body.

Lei named this nest consciousness body a brain-like worm and designated it as the potential opponent that is most threatening to him.

After learning the news, Haoyi naturally listed the so-called brain-like worm as the number one target to eliminate. After a fierce discussion, Haoyi opposed the opposition and decided to take the brain-worm thunder to the battlefield in person, trying to use the thunder's ability to minimize the casualties of the elite new army with few troops.

Three days later, the first task force composed of eight newly-organized armored divisions, two Viking fighter battle groups, and the only battleship Hope in the new army, set off from Tico City. After a day and night of forced marching, the task force rushed to the mountain where the brainworms were hiding.

"Son-in-law, according to the outer space reconnaissance system report, there are only a few low-level alien insects in the target area, and no large-scale, intact insect nest base group was found. This is a real-time holographic picture of the target area sent back by the reconnaissance satellite." Guo Ruo, the beautiful staff officer who dared to directly advise Hao Yi, made an exception and was directly transferred to the Hope battleship. To participate in the battle with him, her mission is still to coordinate the outer space reconnaissance system and provide important real-time battlefield information for the new army.

"Yeah." Hao Yi, who was sitting on the battleship command platform, was holding his hands and frowning at the holographic images transmitted from the outer space reconnaissance system. He frowned and asked the colonel staff beside him without looking back, saying, "Did the reconnaissance team sent by the ground troops have found anything?"

"When I returned to my son-in-law, the several reconnaissance teams sent by the contingent went deep into the target area about ten kilometers, but they did not find anything big. In addition to occasionally encountering some low-level alien insects wandering in the mountains and forests, they only found some abandoned insect nest bases that had been razed to the ground."

"Damn it, can it be that this guy Lei is confused and misunderstood the location coordinates?" Hao Yi swayed his chin, as if he was thinking a little bit.

"Master, my judgment is correct. Those nest bases must be hidden deep in this mountain ground. I can clearly feel the existence of those unworthy insects and grandchildren, and that bastard brainworm. Believe me, Master, they are here."

As Hao Yi finished speaking, Lei's unique childish tone suddenly came to his mind, which really scared Hao Yi.

"I'm talking to you a slut, can you say hello before talking to me next time? Damn it, it's true that you're eavesdropping on your master anytime and anywhere." Hao Yi complained with a black thread, but he was shocked by the colonel and staff officer beside him.

"Son-in-law, are you talking to your subordinates?" the colonel's staff member asked with a red face.

"Ah, there is nothing, I'm not talking to you, you can go down first, let the reconnaissance teams keep in touch with the command center anytime and anywhere, and also notify the commanders of each department to gather and stand by in this area." Haoyi smiled embarrassedly at the colonel's staff officer, and then ordered seriously: "Also, you are here for the time being, I'll come."

After saying that, Haoyi threw down the colonel's staff officer who was still a little confused, hurried out of the bridge command center, and headed straight to a special cabin in the middle of the hull. The brain worm thunder was in that cabin at this time, enjoying the delicious food of the pig's brain marrow leisurely.

In the entire new army, except for a few senior executives such as Guo Ling, who knew Lei's true identity, all the officers and soldiers only knew that it was a special alien insect that Hao Yi dug out of the insect nest base. After all, Lei can be regarded as the secret killer weapon used by Hao Yi to deal with alien insects, and its existence itself is the most core military secret.

Lei can communicate directly with Haoyi through his thoughts, and this secret is naturally a secret in the secret. Therefore, even Haoyi's adjutant and staff officer did not know who Haoyi was talking to just now. Of course, the communication between Lei and Haoyi's thoughts is not infinite. Its range is about less than one kilometer, which is much smaller than the internal call system of the individual team equipped by the Marines.

"Buzz." As soon as the door of the cabin where Lei was located had cracked a thin crack, Haoyi flashed in quickly, brought out a phantom, rushed to Lei's nose, jumped to Lei's fat chin, and shouted loudly: "You still eat and eat, you guys, hurry up and work, don't be stupid, you are lazy all day long, be careful not to fire you."

The thunder, who was enjoying the food with the eyes of insects closed, was probably because Haoyi's sudden punch and his mouth was flying up and down. While coughing repeatedly, he complained pitifully: "Master, please say hello to me before you beat me next time? Look, I've choked me and wasted so much food."

"You little beast, you know what else to do besides eating it all day long? Why do you have the same virtue as Erpang?" Hao Yi kicked angrily, and the disgusting white pig brain scattered on the ground from the mouth of the thunder tongue worm. He scolded sternly: "If you don't work quickly, I will punish you for not eating for three months."

"Ah, no, no, master, you are not kind enough to do this. How do you know that I am not working?" Lei was so scared that he begged for mercy and explained to Haoyi with a grievance: "Although I have been eating, I am not idle either. I just caught the approximate location coordinates of the damn brain-like worm. Hehe, do you want me to pass it to you immediately?"

"What are you talking about? Come here immediately. Also, be ready to summon the insects and grandchildren who obey you and let them take the lead. Do you understand?" Haoyi glared at Lei angrily and shouted loudly with a grin.

"Okay, okay, hey, what a sin am I doing? I want my own insects and grandchildren to fight each other. If my ancestors know, where should I put my insect face?" Lei actually sighed and complained as if he was a decent person. His tone was exactly the same as that of a human. When Haoyi heard it, his face became dark again...
