Chapter 76 Enemy Attack

"Puji Puji", the ground-walking insects ran across a brown land, and a few small insects only ten centimeters long were lying on their backs. The small insects were a bit like slugs, and their bodies were soft and lying like a pool of mud. The only special thing was the top of their heads. On the top of their heads, two tentacles stood upright until they looked towards the sky. The tentacles were very long, several times longer than their bodies. I can't understand how their soft muscles supported this pair of relatively heavy tentacles. These ground-walking insects carrying passengers were not fast, and they ran and stopped, and they were still surrounding them from time to time, as if they were full of doubts.

While moving slowly, the slugs' tentacles that had not been shaking suddenly moved and began to rotate slowly with the top of their heads as the center. The groundworms under them suddenly stopped, and all the groundworms raised their heads and made threatening moves in front of the sky.

There was nothing in the sky, but if it was Wei's field of view, you could see it. In the direction they were targeted, a small stealth probe hovered in the air, constantly transmitting graphic information, knowing that it had been discovered. Although there were no remote bugs below, the probe still flashed and turned around and flew slowly to other directions.

The ground worms below were neatly moved, and at the same time, their hind legs rubbed hard, making a terrifying sound like scratching glass, as if celebrating their own victory. After a strange cheer, the ground worms seemed to have found a confused target, recovered their speed, and started running with slugs, trying to catch up with their patrol progress.

As soon as the insects left, several large pits appeared quietly on the ground. Eight vehicles of the escape convoy slowly drove out from several pits along the steep slope.

"Safe." Moria, who had the best vision, gave Shuer a thumbs up and instructed him, Suff's ears also moved, and made all normal gestures.

"Fill the pit?" The mountain elves patted the dust on his body. The undead mage added some foundation on his face. Just now, the two mages joined forces to change the terrain and dug out several large pits to hide. However, the time was too tight. In addition, Militi was not an elemental mage, and her control of the earth element was far worse than Mia, so the consumption was quite large, so her face turned a little pale.

"Don't fill it, go." Shuer waved his hand, "If they knew how to see the traces, the ruts we left along the way would have been discovered dozens of times. Since the ruts cannot be discovered, the same is true for the pit."

"learn."

"Militi, you go into the car to rest for fifteen minutes and you can take medicine." Shuer, who was supposed to be on the roof of the front car, has already boarded the roof of the rear car. "Mia, you take Militi's position, and I will take care of the rear car."

"I don't need a rest yet." Militi frowned and protested in dissatisfaction.

"I didn't ask if you need it." Shur emphasized, "I need you to rest."

"I understand." During the battle, the orders were forbidden. With the close contact between the few people during this period, the cooperation became more and more tacit.

“Yulie, wide range of light deflection.”

"Finish." The ring on the Wingman's hand flashed, and then made a successful gesture.

Light deflection is a special intermediate light attribute magic, similar to the hazy technique commonly used in darkness, but it is better than hazy technique. It does not allow one to absorb light and become blurred, but can completely disappear visually.

However, if it is so easy to use, you will not use the advanced stealth technique. In fact, after using light deflection, the person disappears, but the person's position will leave a distorted light and shadow, and the visual effect is very obvious. If the distance is close enough, such as twenty or thirty meters, as long as you are not blind, you can definitely see it. However, if the distance is far, the deceptiveness will be very strong. Apart from a hundred meters, unless your vision is as good as Moria, the possibility of discovery is almost zero.

"Let's go." Xiuer didn't have to worry about not being able to see people. The colorless shadows around him were too obvious. "Wei, speed up, don't worry about the patrol within at least two kilometers."

"Boom", the tanks roared, speeding up, and the ground began to retreat quickly. In just a few seconds, the convoy's speed had been raised.

"The enemy air patrol team appeared in two thousand and eight hundred meters ahead, and the speed was twenty-one." Even if he controlled all the machinery alone, Wei would not appear busy, at least the reaction speed would not decrease at all, "Commander, please instruct."

"What is the king insect?"

"Empty jellyfish."

"The map is out." Shuer glanced at the map in front of him, "The left side is 7 degrees, and the original angle will be corrected after 1,200 meters."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

"Fryson, Fryson, report on the situation."

"It's close to the target location." The assassin's cold voice rang in the communicator, "It's confirmed that no bacteria blankets were found along the way."

"Continue until the target point, pay attention to the empty jellyfish above your head, and there are more and more things." It's not that I don't believe in Wei, but I still need to go there personally to be assured that the assassin who is good at stealth and has a slow speed, so he naturally took on the heavy responsibility.

"clear."

"Dak, Dark, report on the situation." Except for Friesen, Dark was not in the team. A few hours ago, Shull sent him out.

"Arriving at the destination in seven minutes and waiting for the next instructions." At this time, Dak had already circled around the Leaping Platform with the invisibility scroll. Compared with the exploration aircraft, the Nightmare Beast was much faster and could easily bypass the reconnaissance of the empty jellyfish.

“Specific situation.”

"There are no signs of large-scale troops except to bypass a large number of empty jellyfish."

"The main array is empty? Shouldn't it be, sure?"

"OK." Dak in the communicator raised the volume, "Wait, I found that their forces are concentrated inside the mother nest."

"Concentrate troops to protect the mother's nest from attack? Or is it a hidden trap?" Shur was lowering his head and pondering, suddenly as if he had remembered something, shouting, "Can you see the inside of the mother's nest? Have you crossed the safety line?"

"Well, no scouts were found, so I advanced another two hundred meters. I am responsible and will adjust the distance according to the specific situation."

"Then you have the control. If you waste an extra invisible scroll, go and check out Mia by yourself." Shuer was not worried about Duck's safety at all. This guy was more sensitive and grasped than himself. There was nothing to worry about. What he really worried about now was the large army he led.

Everything went very smoothly, and it could even be said to be too smooth.

After a few hours, there were no dangers. Although I encountered more than twenty unavoidable situations along the way, I had to pass by the patrol team. The closest time between the two sides was almost zero-distance contact, just like before. But every encounter, I had enough time to prepare, either dig a pit or put up a wall, and easily tricked them over. Apart from wasting some time, it had no impact on the convoy.

The warm-up period was over, and the convoy had already begun to cross between the two troops of the swarm, and the pressure was not much greater, which was far worse than the hard work I imagined. Even now, the most dangerous ten kilometers were about to cross, and there was still no accident. It was as smooth as even the swarm was cooperating with everyone.

It is of course a good thing to go smoothly, but it will be abnormal if it goes too smoothly. Judging from previous performance, the Queen of the Swarm Swarm is definitely not low. It really ignores the traces left by the wheels and tracks? Can the convoy really make such a simple journey straight into the car? And how could it be that the Queen can be hidden from the side of the fortress?

"I hope the trap won't be too powerful. I don't want to die too many people, otherwise even I will feel uncomfortable."

"What did you say?" In the communicator, Dark couldn't hear what Sul was muttering in a low voice.

"It's okay, I'm distracted." Shuer came to his senses, "Be careful to pay attention to your feet and don't ignore the small holes on the ground."

"You said it, what instructions do you have?"

"Huh, forget it, you can withdraw it." Xiuer hesitated for a long time and finally sighed, "It's better to concentrate the troops. I always have an ominous premonition that something is about to happen."

"What are you worried about?" The people in the commanding army would believe in some premonition, believing that this is the guidance given by the gods, and Dak is no exception, "It's because it went too smoothly?"

"Wei, how far is it to be on the worm carpet?" Shuer did not rush to answer Dark's question, but instead frowned, "Also, where is the destination?"

“There are twenty-two kilometers away from the fungus blanket and forty-nine kilometers left to the destination.”

“How long does it take to drive at full speed?”

“From the current road conditions, it will take an hour to reach the destination at full speed.”

"I understand." Shure finally made up his mind, "Dak, come back, and Friesen, return as soon as possible, I will correct the direction for you. I will soon cross the defense line of the swarm. Whether there are traps or not, the most critical sprint will be started. As for the issues I am worried about... Wei, please switch to a special channel."

The so-called special channel is a channel used by eight high-level mercenaries alone, which can avoid being heard by others.

"Actually, we can't hide it from the Zerg Queen." Confidant that we had switched channels, Shuer whispered, "I never thought of hiding it from her."

"Because of the existence of brain-controlling bugs?" Mia's voice inserted, "I see you arranged everyone in the carriage and strictly prohibited them from protruding their heads. I guess you have not forgotten the spies in the team."

"Well, that's to prevent them from observing the environment to provide information to the queen, so that it can delay the queen's time to confirm our location." Shuer suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly, "In fact, I have been pretending to believe that the queen has deceived the swarm, and the swarm queen has been pretending that I have been deceived by me. Haha, in some ways, we cooperate quite tacitly."

"Your purpose is naturally to take the opportunity to get closer to the target. The closer the distance, the easier it is to force breakthrough." Militi, who was resting in the carriage, also joined the discussion, "But why should the queen of the swarm be with you to pretend?"

"Of course it's to set up traps." Shure sneered, "If we defend the fortress and want to capture the fortress and destroy us, it will consume a huge amount of troops. There is still a group of spiders to deal with. It will hurt when the loss is too great. And it knows that our mobility is very high. If we abandon the fortress and play hide-and-seek with it, it doesn't know how long it will take to catch us. Therefore, setting a trap for us to step in is the best choice. So, there is no doubt about the trap. The question is where the trap is, what it is, and how dangerous it is. If you can know these three points in advance, you can avoid large-scale casualties."

"You know?" Militi asked.

"I don't know at all, so I've been trying my best to detect it from the beginning."

"Hey, I actually have an idea." Lin Jing waved to everyone happily on the tank in front to show his presence. "Human ghost fighter jets can be invisible, and the Soul Clan is said to have dark warriors that can be invisible. Will the bugs have similar existences? If you want to set up traps, nothing is more suitable than a troops that can be invisible."

"Uh, I've never seen it before, I'll ask. Wei, do the bugs have troops that can hide?"

"All bugs can penetrate underground, which is equivalent to a stealth method. Radar scanning is prepared to deal with the latent ability of the insect swarm."

"I mean a species that can be invisible without being on the bulb." Shuer went to the front, "for example, the land in front."

"No such information was found in the memory database, and the detailed information must be accessed from the main base database."

"Tsk, this is..."
