Chapter 400 Hunting the Mother Worm
Ling Qi probed towards the cave drilled by the earth-drilling worm with his divine sense. The entrance of the cave sloped downward at a depression angle close to [-] degrees. At a depth of more than [-] meters, it began to lead horizontally to the outside of the city, and the worms inside were still rushing in desperately.He knew that the bugs would not stop gushing out until the bug swarm ended, so he could only continue to guard the entrance of the cave.

The other four caves were also piled up by insect corpses to form a ring-shaped mountain, but it was not as regular as Ling Qi's side, and the crater here was as perfect as a work of art.

Another half an hour later, the swarm of insects finally receded, and the fighters on the city wall were so tired that they collapsed to the ground.Bai Yu and Chu Hong appeared next to Ling Qi, and then Ao Ying and Xiao Rou appeared again.

"How's the situation?" Ling Qi asked, and casually patted some large insect corpses to collect the insect nuclei with his collection skills.

Bai Yu was the first to say, "The buried people have been dug out, and the survival rate is less than [-]%."

Chu Hong also nodded, indicating that the situation is similar.They went to two other places where buildings collapsed, used their spiritual sense to detect the buried people, and directed rescue operations.As for the people who were eaten by bugs, it goes without saying.

"Just do what you can, we'll follow the bugs to their lairs." After Ling Qi finished speaking, he took the lead and shot towards the south of the city.In the other direction, Ao Kuan dodges twice in a row, already far outside the city.

"Well, someone is going to act now?" In the battleship group in the city and above, someone found Ling Qi and others following the worms out of the city, and immediately guessed that they were going to start hunting the female worms.In the past 2 minutes or so, the glamorous young woman and the mammoth warrior chased out of the city one after another, and then figures from other directions in the city and the battleship group flashed out of the city.

Obviously, after someone started, the others didn't intend to wait any longer.

There are many caves with a diameter of less than one meter outside the city, which are passages for small beetles.The speed of Ling Qiwu's people was extremely fast, and they tracked all the way to a distance of [-] kilometers, and only gradually saw some caves that were more than [-] meters away.Exploring with divine sense, these caves lead far away to the mountains in the distance.

With divine awareness to investigate, Ling Qi looked calm and took the lead in chasing into one of the caves.I don't know if this kind of passage was drilled by earth-drilling insects. The interior is wider by 20 to [-] meters, with few turns. The surface seems to be tamped and solidified by special means by insects.On the cave wall, there are many small holes of one to two meters leading to other places.

"If it's used to build subway passages, it's quite suitable!" Ling Qi couldn't help having such thoughts.

Their speed did not slow down, and they continued to advance rapidly underground.To their surprise, the worm retreated so quickly that they hadn't caught up with it yet.

Going underground for more than 100 kilometers along the large passage, Ling Qi estimated that he had approached or even entered the mountain range. In his divine perception, he found that there were many small beetles dormant in most of the small holes, so he guessed that he was close to the nest of the mother beetle. .

The five of them slowed down and continued to go deeper while exploring the way with divine sense.They tried not to disturb the little bugs, but after advancing for more than ten kilometers, two iron beetles guarded the main passage like door gods, and there were a large number of first-level bugs behind them. It was no longer possible to sneak into the village without shooting. possible.

"Use lightning tactics to quickly kill and advance to avoid being surrounded by a large number of bugs." Ling Qi sent a voice transmission to the other four with his divine sense, and then rushed to the bugs first.Their charging speed was too fast, causing screams piercing through the air, causing a riot of bugs even hundreds of meters away.

With two crackling sounds, two bolts of lightning crossed the sky, instantly killing the iron beetle.Ling Qi was the first to open the way, and all the arcs in the minefield were fired, crushing all the way, leaving only insect corpses all over the place, and the four people behind didn't even have a chance to make a move.

A strange aura spread in the worm cave, and the worm swarm crawled out of countless small holes, converging into a torrent and rushing towards the five people.It's just that no matter how many these low-level bugs are, as soon as they enter the minefield, they will be chopped to death, and they can't stop the five people at all.

A few minutes later, the passage became wider and wider, and most of the insects blocking the front turned into iron beetles, among which were mixed with extremely agile green beetles and cockroaches with a size of more than ten meters.Finally, the space widened, and the five of them entered the nearly [-]-meter-long insect nest area.

What made several people puzzled was that there were solidified mucus crystals on the top of the insect nest and the surrounding walls, unsolidified mucus and rows of neatly piled eggs on the ground, but the female insects were nowhere to be seen.

The eggs hatch very quickly, and new larvae break out of their shells every moment, swallowing the nutrients in the shells and mucus to mature quickly.

"Will the mother worm still run away?" Ling Qi was surprised, and shot a bolt of lightning with his hands, killing a giant jumping worm that rushed over from the air.Under the investigation of divine sense, Ling Qi saw a small amount of mucus in a downward passage, and called several people to chase it.When passing through the air, the thunder field and ten thousand thunders will all be fired, destroying the eggs below.

More bugs poured out from the surrounding passages, rushing towards the five people frantically.These bugs are all above level two, and some of them are small in size but reach level four.And as long as it reaches level three or above, Ling Qi will collect the bug core and essence bug meat without any hassle.

Chu Hong and Bai Yu also collected insect cores. With their divine sense, they knew the location of the insect cores in the insect corpses. After killing the insects, they stabbed and picked them with the energy sword, and got the insect cores into their hands. .

After chasing for nearly ten kilometers, leaving a passage full of insect corpses, Ling Qi sensed a larger insect nest in front of him.A 300-[-]-meter-long cockroach-like insect was lying in the center of the nest covered in mucus. Its wings were only a few meters short, and it seemed to be severely degraded with only a few features remaining.

"The level of this female worm must be above level five, and it may have been transported directly from the rear of the Zerg. It is impossible to evolve a Zerg above level five in just [-] days." Ling Qi communicated with divine sense, Present the scene seen by one's divine sense directly in the minds of Ao Ying and Xiaorou, as if sharing the divine sense with them.

At the same time, he carefully searched the nest to rule out the possibility of space cracks.

The ground and caves around the nest are guarded by densely packed fourth-level praying mantids. Compared with other fourth-level insect soldiers, which are large insects that are nearly a hundred meters long, their body size is only more than four meters long, and their strength is extremely condensed. There was a cold light on the limbs.

"Fortunately, there were not a large number of this kind of bugs in the siege swarm, otherwise it would be really hard to defend against!" Ling Qi secretly gasped.

The five rushed into the worm's nest, like pouring a ladle of water into a hot oil pan, arousing a shocking reaction.All the bugs moved almost at the same time, rushing towards the place where the five people appeared.

As soon as the five of them appeared, Bai Yu and Chu Hong stepped aside and spread out their own fields, holding a two-meter-long energy sword in their hands to chop and kill the bugs rushing in front of them.

Ao Ying and Xiaorou were in charge of the rear, and Ao Ying swung the dark electric energy knife in her hand to chop off the bugs approaching from behind.The back of Xiaorou's hand popped out a sharp claw blade, which was born with an energy matrix. After she circulated the blood energy, a meter-long energy claw awn expanded. Every time she swung, it could cut the bug into several pieces.

On the front, Ling Qi's movements were even slower, as soon as he rushed in, he locked on the female worm's head and punched it, and the fist was glowing with white light.Sensing the crisis, the female worm suddenly jumped up and emitted a kind of infrasound wave. This kind of infrasound wave did not show much attenuation in the field.

Ling Qi frowned and endured the intense discomfort, and activated the bullet time visual effects.With the blessing of divine sense, the effect of bullet time is strengthened countless times, and the movement of the female worm is no different from stillness in his eyes.After adjusting the angle slightly, he swiped and shot out the energy beam of the destroyer cannon, which instantly bombarded the head of the female worm.

At the beginning in the Jingyue Empire, Ling Qi was able to hit Weina, who was in the first level, with an energy beam with the strength of the planetary level. Now that he has reached the galaxy level, the increase in energy intensity has greatly improved the power of the destroyer skills, and the ancient brontosaurus The increase is four times, and the lethality has far exceeded that of a real destroyer.

However, the female worm was unharmed after bearing the blow, but she seemed a little dizzy and stopped emitting infrasound waves.

What a powerful defense!Ling Qi had five fingers on his right hand, and a black long spear appeared in his hand. The body and the head of the gun were integrated into one, with a low profile implying supreme power.He dodged, and with a thunderclap, he appeared on the huge head of the female insect tens of meters away, holding a gun with both hands and stabbing the female insect's head with speed.

With a puff, the spear easily broke through the female worm's defense, and most of it sank into the female worm's head.

Ling Qi was shocked. This long spear was a semi-divine weapon seized from the space ring of that hidden protoss child, and it had a name called "Kaishan".He hadn't researched the key array of the refined spear, and even before the matrix inside the spear was activated, he already possessed such a huge power, no wonder it was named "Kaishan".

The nearly [-]-meter-long blood bar above the female worm let out wildly, and it was reduced by half in an instant.Ling Qi felt that the female worm still had the strength to struggle. In order to prevent it from absorbing the life essence in its body to heal its wounds, he transferred a huge amount of electric energy into the spear, hoping to achieve a unique kill like the first time he killed the female worm.

The next moment, the part of the spear submerged in the female worm's body suddenly triggered a powerful energy burst effect.

boom!
Under Ling Qi's unbelievable eyes, the female worm's head was blasted into a huge hole more than ten meters thick, and the blood strips were also wiped out.

"This is the passive effect mentioned in the conclusion of the appraisal. It has a certain chance to trigger burst damage, and the power is huge!" Ling Qi was ecstatic.

"It's a pity that it came from a wrong way, and it can't be used openly!" Ling Qi sighed secretly, but his movements were not slow, and he activated the collection skill again and again.

Once the mother worm died, the remaining worms in this group became even more frenzied. They flew towards the five people in a suicidal manner, and even Ling Qi who was standing on the mother worm was attacked intensively.He drew out his long spear, and casually stabbed out blossoming gunflowers to kill the bugs, while continuing to collect the essence of life.

After a while, when the captain's system prompts that the target does not exist, Ling Qi gets 37 drops of life essence.Ling Qi felt that this amount was wrong. Last time, the female worms who were only at the peak of the second level provided eighteen drops. How could this female worm, which is at least the fifth level, not even double it?

He changed several positions and continued to collect, but the prompt he got was still that the target did not exist.On the contrary, there is a huge amount of essence worm meat, and every time you collect it, you can get a large piece weighing one ton. It seems that the proportion of nutrient-rich worm meat in the female worm's body is far higher than that of other worms.

"The essence of life should have been consumed during the reproduction of those eggs!" Ling Qi thought of the eggs destroyed in the first nest, guessed the reason, and stopped entangled.

After studying the data, he knew that the eggs were not produced in the body of the female worm, but were produced outside the body under the auspices of the female worm with the unique life rules of the zerg, or organic synthesis was more appropriate.In this process, part of the essence of life needs to be consumed, and a drop of essence of life can produce tens of thousands of eggs.The female worm has the supreme life authority over the worms it produces, and can kill all the worms with a single thought.

Ling Qi left the mother worm to help destroy the surrounding worms and collect worm nuclei at the same time.

Seeing Ling Qi coming down to kill the insects, Chu Hong said in amazement, "Go find the essence of life, we can hold it."

"I've already collected it, only 37 drops." Ling Qi told the truth without hiding the quantity.As teammates, both Chu Hong and Bai Yu can share the spoils.

Bai Yu was surprised and said, "So fast? But it's good to have so many. I heard that some teams have worked so hard to kill the female worms, and the life essence has been absorbed by the female worms. It's a waste of hard work."

"Well, the truth is that old immortal led a team to hunt and kill a female worm of a similar level at the edge of the wild area, but he didn't get a fart." Chu Hong also said.

The insects seemed to be endless, and the five of them killed for four hours. The corpses of the insects almost filled the nest, and they evacuated while killing.
