Chapter 162 Changes under the ice(1/2)

Swish ~

Platypus-class frigates flew quickly toward the north pole of Planet 4.

In addition to Perry, the leader of the sinner, who followed Jiang Xia, there was Nolan Weiwei. She was still in a bad mood. However, when she heard that Jiang Xia and Langya were going to find the truth about the rapid aging of the locals, Nolan Weiwei still became curious and followed Jiang Xia to the place where the green scorpion was born.

On this snow-white ice field, a towering iceberg stood. At the foot of the mountain, there were already a group of naked boys waiting.

Walking off the battleship, Perry summoned the teenagers who were only in their teenage years old and said, "Green scorpions grow under the deep ice layer, and they need a lot of time and energy to collect them. They are specifically responsible for collecting green scorpions."

Jiang Xia nodded. As young people specially selected to do this job, they have very good physical fitness, with a temperature of about minus 30 degrees Celsius. However, these teenagers were naked and did not feel cold at all.

Jiang Xia nodded to Langya, and then Langya brought some food from the boat and distributed it to the young men, which were nothing more than jerky meat, military energy bars, etc.

These foods are very ordinary to Jiangxia from the earth. After all, the food of the Earth Federation has long been famous in the Milky Way, but for these sinner teenagers, they are delicacies that have never been seen before.

Jiang Xia's actions of winning people's hearts were very successful. The eyes of the sinner boys who got the food were shining. They no longer had the hostility and indifference that they had when they first met Jiang Xia, and became very enthusiastic.

"Let's go." Jiang Xia said expressionlessly.

"Yes! Chief! Let's see ours!" The leader of the group of young men said with his chest patted his chest. His name was Gro, and he was Perry's eldest son.

The teenagers dragged a row of power sleds. This kind of transportation was very simple, like a flat ferry, with two thin ice skates at the bottom and a low-power jet engine behind it.

Perry said: "Sir, what we are going to be under the ice layer, where the structure is very unstable. Once there is a violent vibration or sound, it may cause the ice layer to collapse. This sled has been specially modified. Although it is not comfortable to sit, it can be kept quiet."

Jiang Xia didn't say anything, got on the first sled, and Langya and Nolan Weiwei also found their respective positions.

Gro whistled a sharp whistle and jumped onto the first sled and set off.

The modified engine did not sound any more. After entering an ice tunnel under the iceberg, Gro turned off the engine and let the sled slide automatically.

Swish ~

It feels good to ride a sled. The ice around it is like a mirror, reflecting Xia Fei's shadow. The world under the iceberg is like an ant's nest. Gro is familiar with the sled to drive the sled through the complex holes, turning into this curve, and then switching to another fork.

......

After slid at the high speed for about an hour and a half, the sled stopped in a vast white snow deep underground. If the place where Jiangxia passed by was like a landslide, then this was an open plain.

The temperature dropped a lot, and the gas emitted from the breath immediately turned into fine snowflakes, but Gros's group of teenagers still didn't feel cold, revealing their toned muscle lines.

"It's done well." Jiang Xia walked off the sled and patted Gro on the shoulder.

"Thank you, Chief." Gro's chest was very high, pointing to the open area directly in front of him and said, "That is where the green scorpion grows. If you stand taller, you will find that this place looks like the shape of a scorpion, which is why the green scorpion is named."

"Yeah?"

Jiang Xia nodded, and with a slight force on her legs, she rushed up.

Click ~

The climbing hook attached to the Yue Yejia arm position stretched out, firmly clenching the top of the ice layer, so that Jiang Xia would hang her entire person on a high place.

Gro and the teenagers were stunned. Due to the lack of news, they did not know that Jiang Xia, the first permanent chief in the history of the Sin Min Galaxy, was actually a very powerful warrior. It was not until they saw Jiang Xia's free and easy actions that they suddenly realized.

"The Chief is amazing!"

"Yes, his jumping explosive power is really strong. I didn't even see him make any preparations, and I immediately soared into the air at a height of 100 meters."

Gro's friends were talking a lot and couldn't help but applaud Jiang Xia.

After all, the beast tribe is respected by strength. After Jiang Xia showed his strength slightly, everyone's eyes when they looked at him changed a lot.

Jiang Xia hung himself in the air. After a closer look, he found that the center of the ice and snow plain was light green, which really looked like the shape of a huge scorpion, with a length of about one kilometer.

"Did you feel it?" Ling Xiao asked in Jiang Xia's consciousness.

"Well." Jiang Xia nodded, "A kind of energy fluctuation that is different from humans and beasts is relatively weak, a bit like the Zerg hidden space that the Lu brothers and I have been to, but such a weak fluctuation does not look like a living Zerg."

Ling Xiao nodded and said, "Even if high-level intelligent life dies, there will still be some energy aftermath around him. If I guess correctly, there should be a Zerg corpse under the ice layer. The secret of the green scorpion may be related to this corpse."

"Remember this feeling. The reason why my perception is stronger than you is because I have experienced more and can detect the subtle changes in space. As long as you continue to work hard, one day in the future, you will have the same perception ability as me."

Swish ~

Jiang Xia fell back to the ground and, under Gros' leadership, came to the center of this snowfield.

In order to facilitate the collection of green scorpions, the criminals installed some high-power nuclear energy lamps in the ice layer, illuminating the ice layer hundreds of kilometers underground very brightly.

Grok knelt down, pointed to the thick snow and said, "The green scorpion is right here."

After saying that, he pulled away the snow with his bare hands. When the depth reached about half a meter, Jiang Xia finally saw the figure of a green scorpion, a plant similar to wild jujubes in the mountains. It grew in the snow, with deep roots and stems, and thin branches and leaves. There were many green fruits on the branches. These fruits were smaller than what Jiang Xia once saw and were lighter in color.

"This is a green scorpion that has not yet matured. When it matures, it will appear dark green." Gro explained to Jiang Xia.

Langya and Nolan Weiwei were also very interested. They took them down and observed the strange snow plant curiously.

"Can the teacher know this plant?" Jiang Xia asked in his consciousness.

Ling Xiao said: "I don't recognize it. It should be a mutated variety. Let's continue to go down and see the corpse."

Jiang Xia nodded, stood up and said to Gro, "Can you continue to go down? Go to the rhizome position of the green scorpion."

Gro was stunned and shook his head repeatedly, "No, Chief, the green scorpion has a deep rhizome, and the structure below is very unstable."

"We once wanted to explore deeper ice, but as long as we continue to go down, the ice will vibrate violently, as if something could detect our actions. It is really dangerous to continue going down!"

It seems that something is detecting?

Jiang Xia frowned, and his doubts became even more serious. He ignored Gro's objection and said in a deep voice: "Langya, be careful when you open the way forward."

......

Rumble ~

The ice shaking, and even a few obvious cracks were shaken open on the ice wall. Although Gro and the sinner teenagers were brave, they were superstitious. Whenever the ice shaking, they would close their eyes and silently pray to the Beast God for blessing.

Not far from where the green scorpion grew, it was the road further toward the deeper the ice. Jiang Xia and the others had only walked less than ten minutes, and the ice had shaken dozens of times.

At first, the vibration was short and not too severe, but as Jiang Xia and the others deepened, the vibration scale became more and more serious. Cracked on the walls, and the ice sliver on the top began to fall down, as if the ice layer would collapse at any time.

"Is it an earthquake?" Jiang Xia asked Lingxiao in his consciousness.

"I don't know, no matter how strange the place is, it's very strange. Since we started to approach the weak energy fluctuation of the ice, the vibration has never stopped. It seems that someone knows that we are getting closer, so be careful!" Ling Xiao said.

Jiang Xia gritted his teeth, "The more weird it is, the more I want to find out the truth."

With the increasing vibration, Jiang Xia and the others walked down carefully. After they walked far enough, the frequency of vibration decreased after passing a node, which made Jiang Xia puzzled.

Swish ~

Finally, Jiang Xia and the others arrived at the bottom of the green scorpion growth ice layer, and saw another huge ice field, with a raised hill in the center.

The rhizomes of green scorpions are tied on this hill, and the rhizomes blown in the air are like grape vines, which are connected to the plant body of the upper green scorpions.

This was the first time that the sinners had arrived at such a deep ice layer so far. Gro and his companions began to pray, but the vibration of the ice suddenly disappeared.

"I didn't expect that it would be safe after I really came down. It was because the Chief was far-sighted. You are braver than us and are a real warrior!" Gro finished praying, stood up and said with admiration.

Superstition is the old habit of the sinners. After all, their lifespan is so short, but the garrisons are all alive. The locals really think they are punished by the beast god.

Lingxiao said in Jiang Xia's consciousness: "There seems to be something under this little iceberg."

Jiang Xia nodded, came to the small iceberg where the green scorpion's rhizome was located, pulled out the wind sword, and used the knife to pry the ice layer open bit by bit.

After peeling off the ice layer about a few meters thick, Jiang Xia saw the green shell...

Everyone was shocked. As Jiang Xia took action together, the broken ice splashed for a moment, and the green carapace became clearer and clearer.

"It turned out to be a queen of insects!" Ling Xiao whispered in Jiang Xia's consciousness: "It's absolutely impossible. Look at the crystals at the tail of this scorpion, green, like a basketball, natural, embedded on the poisonous needle at the tail. If it weren't for queen of insects, it wouldn't have such a beautiful insect crystal."

Jiang Xia frowned. The energy core will be formed in the intelligent life body. There are crystals in the head of the crystal beast, cosmic crystals and dark crystals in nature, and even the Zergs have insect crystals. It seems that any high-energy-related life in this universe will be closely related to the crystals.

"Teacher, if this is a dead queen, what's going on with these scars on his body? It's so tragic, it's destroyed the internal organs. It looks like the scars are injured by similar people. Does anyone in the Zerg dare to attack queen?" Jiang Xia said, pointing to the scars on queen.

A series of tragic scars remained on the body of the worm, spreading all over the body. Judging from the structure of the scars, it was obvious that it was also caused by the Zerg. It is hard to imagine how cruel the worm had experienced before he died.

Ling Xiao disagreed and said, "You don't know anything about this. The Zerg is a very special race. In the Zerg, there is only one Zerg King, but there are many Zerg queens."

"In order to compete for the right to mating with the insect king, the competition between the insect queens is very fierce. Only the best insect queens can mate and raise their offspring. However, even if they raise their offspring, they must be wary of other insect queens taking advantage of the chaos to kill their offspring, because only by killing the offspring of the enemy can their offspring survive better and eventually become a new generation of insect kings."

"This insect queen obviously failed in the competition, so she escaped here and failed to obtain the right to mating with the insect king, but died instead."

Jiang Xia curled his lips. The Zerg's harem fighting scene is really bloody. Simply put, the insects and queens kill each other. Whoever survives to the end and who can raise the child is the ultimate winner.

Lingxiao said: "Look, the rhizome of the green scorpion grows on the corpse of the worm. It must be a special plant brought by the worm from where she is."

"No one has ever seen the Worm King in the universe, nor does anyone know where the Worm King lives. After all, the Worm race is different from us. They like to live in a space mezzanine, that is, in a hidden space, and it is difficult for humans to find them."

"It is said that the place where the insect king lives is full of treasures, and various rare plants are everywhere. In addition, the insect itself is also very valuable. Her carapace, eyes, and not to mention the insect crystals behind the tail, which are Maomao's favorite."

The spiritual brain is very special. There is not only Lingxiao, but also Maomao in the virtual world. At this moment, he was looking at Jiang Xia. After hearing Lingxiao's words, Maomao nodded repeatedly. His innocent little eyes seemed to say, "I help my master transform every day and maintain the identity of the beast clan. It's so hard, let's leave this insect crystal to Maomao!"

Jiang Xia smiled slightly and said to Maomao: "Don't worry, the insect crystal must be yours, but it won't work now, because if you eat the insect crystal, you will hibernate again, then I will be exposed."

Maomao nodded repeatedly, very well-behaved and considerate.

Lingxiao said: "You have found the root of the green scorpion, what are you going to do now?"

Jiang Xia thought for a while and said, "Of course, I will save the corpse of the worm. As for the green scorpion, I will also save some. After all, I want to go to the Miluo Star Realm to find the dark crystals, and I must use the power of those children. As for those adults, if they stop using the green scorpion, they may be able to live a few more years."

Ling Xiao nodded slightly, "You are alone and lonely at the moment, and I'm afraid there is no better way."

Jiang Xia said in a deep voice: "Since I came to the Sinmin Galaxy, I have actually decided to use these powerful little guys to form an army."
To be continued...
