Chapter 884: Tired work

"Ka~Ka~Ka~~"

"Ka~Ka~Ka~~"

A string of bright fires lit up in the dim tunnel, and a few croaking insects echoed in the passage. After a fierce gunfire, the tunnel returned to peace.

Both ends of the passage were blocked by the corpses of the insects again, and the attack of the insects was repelled again.

Lu Rongxuan withdrew from the energy converter in the gun, replaced it with the cooled one before, and then looked at the soldiers around him.

"None of them were injured, right?" Lu Rongxuan asked.

"No!"

After all, the insects did not rush to them, so they could not cause any harm to the soldiers.

After this period of fighting against the swarm, the soldiers were used to the attack methods of the swarm, and now it is not difficult to fight the swarm.

Lu Rongxuan left some people to keep alert and let others rest inside.

While resting, the soldiers carefully checked around to see if there were any living insects pressed under the pile of insect corpses.

After all, the last incident left a considerable psychological shadow on everyone's heart.

After that, few soldiers spoke. Whenever the insects started attacking, they became very fierce and often put the insects very close to death, so that they could kill more insects every time.

After repelling the attack of the insect swarm just now, Lu Rongxuan didn't hear any movement at both ends of the pile of corpses, which was a bit unusual.

According to the previous practice, after the insect swarm is blocked outside, it will start digging, digging out the dead insects in the pile of corpses and transporting them to other places, digging until both ends are opened, then starting to charge, and then being beaten to death and blocking the passage.

This was the case before the battle, and Lu Rongxuan's troops were already used to it.

But now I can't hear the sound of insects digging, which makes Lu Rongxuan and the soldiers a little uncomfortable.

"I think something is wrong." A soldier couldn't help but say.

"Yes, why can't you hear the movement this time?" Another soldier said strangely.

At this time, everyone began to wonder about the current situation.

I was used to hearing the noisy sound of the insect swarm, but now I suddenly became quiet, which made Lu Rongxuan and the soldiers a little panicked.

"They aren't going to change their strategies, right?" a soldier guessed.

“It’s possible.”

When everyone heard someone saying that the swarm would change their strategies, they became nervous and didn't know where to stare at for a moment.

"Quiet! Pay attention to your previous position!"

Although Lu Rongxuan didn't know how the insect swarm would attack next, he knew that he couldn't panic. Instead of being distracted by himself, it would be better to wait for the insects to come and know what they were going to do.

When everyone heard Lu Rongxuan's words, they stopped talking and observed the surroundings vigilantly, ready to deal with the attacks that would come at any time.

After everyone calmed down, Lu Rongxuan listened carefully to the movements around him. In addition to the breathing sounds of the soldiers and the footsteps of some soldiers, Lu Rongxuan also faintly heard some "slam" sounds.

Those sounds were definitely the sounds made by the insects when they moved, but what Lu Rongxuan was puzzled was that the sounds were getting smaller and smaller, and in the end they could hardly be heard.

What was going on? Lu Rongxuan couldn't figure out the situation for a while, what were the insects going to do? After listening carefully for a while, Lu Rongxuan could no longer hear the sound of insects moving.

Did all the bugs go away? This is what Lu Rongxuan thinks now.

In order to confirm his guess, Lu Rongxuan slowly approached the pile of corpses of the insects.

After crossing the defense line of his soldiers, Lu Rongxuan walked closer to the pile of corpses step by step.

"Be careful!" a soldier couldn't help but say.

"It's okay." Lu Rongxuan waved his hand and walked carefully to the front of the pile of corpses.

This is a high wall built by the corpse of a giant insect, and the road ahead is blocked and firmly blocked.

This wall was not built by Lu Rongxuan and the others, but was left by the insects when they charged. There have been many such walls before, but they were all demolished by the insects.

The green blood of the insects was still flowing out from time to time, and some sharp claws and jaws were exposed from inside, looking very ferocious and terrifying, but these dead insects could no longer pose any threat to Lu Rongxuan and the others.

Lu Rongxuan endured the foul smell from the pile of corpses, turned his ear and listened carefully to the movement on the other side.

Without hearing the sound, Lu Rongxuan thought for a moment, took out the particle energy gun and shot it on the ground.

"Bang~"

The soldiers were all shocked by Lu Rongxuan's sudden shot.

Lu Rongxuan found that all the soldiers were looking at him, coughed awkwardly, and then turned his ears to listen to the movements opposite him.

Still no response. Lu Rongxuan was sure that those bugs would no longer launch a strong attack.

"The insect swarm seems to have retreated." Lu Rongxuan said to the person next to him after he came back.

"Retreat? Impossible!" Everyone couldn't believe it when he heard Lu Rongxuan say this.

"The last time they retreated was to surround more people," said a soldier.

Lu Rongxuan nodded, yes, these bugs are wise, and their actions are highly coordinated and will not retreat so easily.

But he still couldn't help but believe that the swarm had retreated.

At this time, hope ignited in Lu Rongxuan's heart. When he and Huang Haoran separated, they didn't know whether they could find the Zerg's mother nest alive.

After the separation, Lu Rongxuan was blocked by the insect swarm. Now that the insect swarm is retreating, he can continue to look for the Zerg's mother nest.

Lu Rongxuan felt that as long as he could find the Zerg's mother nest, it would be worth it no matter what the price he paid.

Even if you can't find it, it's better to walk out from here than to suffocate to death here.

After making up his mind, Lu Rongxuan said to the soldiers: "I decided that we will dig the passage ourselves this time."

"Yes!" The soldiers were very uneasy after hearing Lu Rongxuan's words, and were worried that the Zerg would be ambushed waiting for them, but they still answered firmly.

Now the soldiers no longer have any hope of returning home alive. The chances of surviving in this complex insect hole are very small. Even if they keep here, they will never escape the fate of running out of ammunition and food in the future.

Only by seizing this opportunity and taking the initiative to find the Zerg's mother nest can their ultimate goal be achieved.

Under Lu Rongxuan's command, the soldiers came down next to a "worm wall" and began to clean up the insect's corpses.

It takes a lot of effort to move the dead bugs piled up together.

Lu Rongxuan dragged a dead bug while walking, thinking, "Why is this life more tiring than fighting?"
