Chapter 774: Chapter 438: Insect God Blood Water

Though there was a bit of a mix-up, now wasn’t the time for idle chat.

After the two teams met up, they started to retreat quickly.

There were nearly fifty people in the insect swarm punishment team, including He Feng and two other players.

They were easy to identify since the Friesa combat suit was the standard uniform of their Awei Protection Association.

Smiling Half-step Mad, a tall female player, and One Day Life Loss, a strong male player.

Both of them wore monster masks on their faces.

Upon learning that Li Changhe was Uncle Eight-direction, One Day Life Loss asked in shock, "Are you the tough guy who dares to sleep with abnormalities?"

Well, it seemed that the rumors about the events on Dream Cruise had spread pretty far.

Back then, the girl was disguised as a Little Red Riding Hood mercenary, and Li Changhe bragged that he had already conquered her, which had apparently dug a deep hole for himself.

So now, many people in the Awei Protection Association thought that Uncle Eight-direction was a tough guy who didn’t hesitate to mess with abnormalities.

As for the rest, they were non-player combat personnel.

The footsteps Li Changhe had heard before were actually from them.

Since they were not players, they were acting as a group in the underground tunnels. Even with the help of player skill effects, it was inevitable that their movements would be detected.

However, they were elite non-player forces, far superior to the new recruits like Old Zhao and his colleagues.

Some of them were retired military personnel, some were police officers, and some were Great Wall Special Forces who had originally been stationed at various official checkpoints.

Their combat abilities and awareness were not weak, and their equipment was more advanced. They even carried steam backpacks connected to chainsaw rifles.

Overall, it was a heavy-looking submachine gun with several sharp chainsaws under the muzzle.

This weapon could be used for close or long-range combat. Paired with a battle suit, it was indeed quite a romantic notion for men.

"What kind of black technology is this? I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere before." As he ran, Li Changhe scrutinized one of the soldiers, feeling that the chainsaw rifle was somewhat similar to the chainsaw axes of the Great Tang.

"Don’t worry about it, General Li Ba. This is a chainsaw rifle that we modified based on the miniature steam technology obtained from the Great Tang." Chen Yu replied, "It was you who provided it to us."

Li Changhe recalled and indeed, it was.

In the Great Tang mission, the authorities did request technical blueprints and various technologies for the armored warriors.

"Why not make some steam armor then?" Li Changhe asked, "If humans had steam armor in the disaster fog, wouldn’t the threat of the Terror Devils be greatly reduced?"

Armored warriors of the Great Tang were both resilient and strong in combat. If they were also equipped with chainsaw rifles, wouldn’t they be able to suppress most Terror Devils?

Given that low-level players probably wouldn’t even be able to break through the defense of the armored warriors.

If the Great Wall Special Forces were all equipped with steam armor, even players above LV10 would not dare show their faces.

Just thinking about it was exciting: a group of tall, strong, armored special forces chasing after players, rolling over them.

"Ordinary people can’t meet the conditions to wear armor. The reason why the armored warriors of the Great Tang can fight for so long is because they have undergone multiple modification surgeries." Chen Yu shook his head and didn’t elaborate on the specifics of the surgeries.

Shui Yue reminded, "It’s useless to discuss this now. What’s more important is how to deal with the situation here."

The footsteps of the swarming insects followed in hot pursuit.

Tens of thousands of insects were attacking the trapped Terror Devils.

Originally, those Terror Devils hid in underground areas to avoid human bombing, but now the barriers protecting them had become cages imprisoning them.

Under such a siege by a large number of insects, even if their abilities were a handful, they could hardly escape being devoured.

Wanting to find and kill the Abyssal Worm in this situation was extremely difficult.

He Feng and his team were originally with the main force to deal with the insect swarm.

But after discovering another passage, they decided to take their chances.

They thought this would be where the Insect Queen was, but it turned out to be the Abyssal Worm’s territory.

Moreover, the number of insects here far exceeded expectations. At least ten thousand insects were definitely not something their team of less than a hundred people could handle.

"The number of insects here is no less than that on the main battlefield," He Feng said while running. "The situation on the front is so tense that they probably can’t help us now."

Thousands of members of the Insect Swarm Punishment Team were engaged in bloody battles with the Insect Race in other underground areas, effectively killing insects while advancing forward. They planned to keep going to the Insect Race’s nest and kill the Insect Queen.

Their battle was so fierce that they probably couldn’t spare any strength to come here.

"There are two possibilities for the insect swarm coming to this area," Chen Yu said quickly. "Either they’re here to consume the Abyssal Worms to gain more nutrients and give birth to more insect swarms, or they’re using the Abyssal Worms to attack the Safe Zone."

"She’s really making a good calculation," Li Changhe said. "Given the number and coverage of the insects, it’s not hard to find the Abyssal Worm."

"That’s right, in the disaster fog, the Insect Race is the easiest to find the Abyssal Worm’s location among the Terror Devils," Chen Yu responded. "However, it’s strange how the Insect Race found out about this place. We are several kilometers away from the main battlefield of the Insect Race."

It might sound like it’s not far away, but the underground area is several hundred meters deep, surrounded by hard rock.

No insects were found on the surface, so they could only come through the tunnels.

That is to say, they dug through several miles of tunnels to accurately locate this place. The difficulty level of that is not ordinary. Anything slightly off would mean not being able to reach here.

According to records from various countries, the Insect Race does not possess such capabilities.

"It seems that the Terror Devils are working together. Some of the powerful Terror Devils had extremely high intelligence since the beginning," Chen Yu sighed. "We’ve been expecting this situation, but we didn’t expect it to happen so soon."

Terror Devils cooperating? That’s not good news. Once some of the specially-abled Terror Devils cooperate, it’s a disaster for humans.

Take the previous Evil God creation, Heartless Fruit, for example.

If it had cooperated with the Insect Race,

How would humanity respond to the overwhelming insect swarms?

If they didn’t fight back, they’d be killed and eaten by the insect swarm.

If they did fight back, they’d be infested by the Heartless Fruit.

There’s basically no solution.

The only consolation is that the Heartless Fruit has already been wiped out.

"Then we can’t let the other party succeed," Li Changhe said, slowing down his pace. "Let’s eliminate all the insects here. I have a plan."

"Is it reliable? Let me remind you that we can’t hold back this number of insects on our own," Chen Yu glanced at him and said, "You don’t have an army of thousands behind you now. Your Immortal Cavalry won’t be enough either."

If it was in Great Tang, Li Changhe, as the Tian Ce General, would have armored corps and the Great Tang Auxiliary Army following him.

Then he would be invincible with a million-strong steel torrent wiping out the insect swarm.

But now, there are only a team of less than sixty people here.

There are only eight players. Faced with thousands of insects, even if Li Changhe entered a Reversed State and summoned the Immortal Cavalry, it wouldn’t last long.

"He’s not some brute," the girl seemed to understand Li Changhe’s thoughts and chuckled. "He plans to fight the Terror Devils with abnormalities."

At the same time, Li Changhe also took out a basin of blood water.

That was—Insect God Blood Water!

Ha-ha-ha, I bet the Insect Race never expected to fight the Insect God, right?
