Chapter 11 Getting Serious

After successfully arriving at the Spore Highlands, Fang Senyan's expression became solemn instead.

Because the calm at this time mostly foreshadowed the dangers to come. The unfortified outer perimeter of the Zerg, directly under the command of the Queen of Blades and stationed on the Spore Highlands, precisely demonstrated their strong confidence in their internal defenses! Without an impregnable defense, how could they be so lax on the outside?

Fang Senyan carefully looked around, then had the host carrying the troops stay where it was. He first sent two Spore Flyers and three Exploding Mosquitoes to fly up along the cliff face. As soon as they flew nearly a hundred meters, a huge tentacle suddenly lashed out from the cliff with a whoosh!

The tentacle looked at least twenty meters long, with thick mucus on its surface. It was much thicker than an octopus tentacle, and its forked end was full of indescribable explosive power as it swept across! Amidst flying gravel, the Spore Flyers and Exploding Mosquitoes tried their best to make evasive maneuvers, but the tentacle seemed to be able to extend and contract freely. With a clever loop in the air, it directly enveloped two Exploding Mosquitoes silently! It directly digested and devoured them, not even giving Fang Senyan time to issue the self-destruct command! Fortunately, the two Spore Flyers were much more agile. They dodged the attack and successfully flapped their wings, circling down with the remaining Exploding Mosquito.

Seeing this terrifying and bizarre scene, Fang Senyan decisively ordered the remaining flying units to return. Then, all the troops rose up from hundreds of meters away from the cliff face, obviously to avoid the terrifying tentacle attack. Only after they were parallel to or even slightly above the top of the Spore Highlands did they rush directly towards the edge of the highlands in a sequence of combat units in front and the host in the rear. It was clear that they were going to force their way to the top.

Fang Senyan's actions seemed reckless, but he was actually confident because the space would not issue impossible tasks. The Spore Highlands were incredibly steep on all sides and guarded by that terrifying tentacle. Climbing directly was almost impossible, so the only way was to airlift them up. In this case, it could be basically determined that the probability of a successful air landing was very high. Otherwise, if the absurd possibility arose that they would be taken down directly before landing, it would only mean that the difficulty of this mission was at least at the G level!

The wind howled. Fang Senyan and the others drank the prepared gene potion, entering their best state while closely watching the edge of the highlands ahead that was getting bigger and closer. It looked like a barren open space. The only thing to worry about was the tentacles that might suddenly appear. Once that terrifying weapon appeared, they would obviously have to change the landing site.

As the host rapidly approached, the three of them suddenly widened their eyes! Because on that seemingly barren open space, a large number of holes emitting a faint red light appeared. This was a manifestation of the Zerg's unique burrowing ability. All Zerg hosts were born with this detection ability, so it directly made everyone notice this anomaly!

Nearly thirty Zerg units were lurking beneath this open space, quietly waiting for their arrival! This was clearly a trap!

Fang Senyan immediately turned to look at Mogansha, because Mogansha had previously used a skill similar to "Insight", hoping that he could provide some relevant data, but Mogansha shook his head and said, "It won't work. It's telling me that I'm covered by the Queen of Blades' mental power and can't use this ability."

Fang Senyan's pupils contracted, but he roared loudly and fiercely, "Prepare to land! I'll go down first to attract them for five seconds, you land ten meters away from me!"

Mogansha's heart tightened and he said, "What if there's a Hydralisk sea below? Should we change places?"

Fang Senyan roared loudly, "No need! If it were Hydralisks, we would all have entered their range by now! Now is the best time for the Hydralisks to drill out of the ground, which would cause us even greater losses. Only the Zergling, who are good at close combat, would hide until now! Even if there are all elite Zerglings below, I won't even have time to detonate the prototype electromagnetic cloud bomb! The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it will be for us!"

At this time, the wind was howling. The host flew past less than three meters above the ground. Fang Senyan released his hand holding the host's tentacles and jumped straight down! When he landed, his feet sank into the soft sand. Then, dirt splashed around, and seven or eight crazy Zerglings suddenly appeared from underground, pouncing on him frantically!

Faced with the attack, Fang Senyan instinctively blocked with his left hand, placing it in front of his chest. A Zergling's claw, flashing with a metallic glint, swept across and tore a gash in Fang Senyan's combat armor, but still failed to break through his defense! One point of life value was forcibly deducted! Fang Senyan took the opportunity to grab the Zergling's neck with one hand, and with a sudden force, he snapped its neck bone with a "crack". He then used it as a weapon and swung it towards the nearby Zerglings. Even so, the Zergling still frantically kicked and bit, but those Zerglings were also merciless to their own kind. As long as they blocked the passage, they would pounce and tear frantically, and in a few seconds, they tore this unlucky guy into pieces of flesh and blood.

At least several thousand Zerglings had died in Fang Senyan's hands by this point. After a brief battle, he immediately realized that although these Zerglings' life value was not as thick as that of elite Zerglings, it was at least several times that of ordinary Zerglings! At least 150 points. And their whole bodies were blood red, with a golden line growing along their spines from the top of their heads to their tails. Their attack speed was at least twice as fast as that of other Zerglings! Once they attacked, there was a dazzling array of claw shadows, making it impossible to see clearly!

Fortunately, Fang Senyan's toughness could still play a huge role at this time, and he stubbornly resisted their siege. However, once a critical hit occurred, Fang Senyan was still quite injured.

After almost all the Zerglings here appeared from the ground, Fang Senyan's life value had rapidly dropped to below half. He shouted and slammed his hand on the switch of the prototype electromagnetic cloud bomb!

A light blue halo shockwave spread out, enveloping these blood-red, gold-striped Zerglings, inflicting damage on them and immediately putting them into a state of dizziness. At the same time, the remaining six hosts quickly approached the ground, dropping the troops inside like dumplings! As the ten-second dizziness time was about to pass, Reef had already rushed to Fang Senyan's side, raised his head, and shouted loudly, emitting a "Heart-wrenching Roar"!

His roar was extremely powerful. These Zerglings had already been hit by the prototype electromagnetic cloud bomb and suffered a certain degree of damage. They were also hit by Reef's group attack, and Fang Senyan roasted them with a flamethrower. They died one after another! This ambush on the ground caused Fang Senyan and the others no losses, and Fang Senyan only lost nearly three hundred and fifty life points, close to the edge of the danger line.

It is worth mentioning that the drop rate of these Zerglings was also quite good. The various items dropped by more than thirty Zerglings could be sold for about 2,000 general points. More importantly, another unknown strange object actually appeared! This thing looked like a Zergling's stomach, but a golden, dazzling, hair-like thing was wrapped around its bloody surface. It could be used to go to the space to exchange for merit points! Both Crowbar and Reef advocated that Fang Senyan take it, and Fang Senyan didn't say anything and directly accepted it.

In order to avoid being ambushed again, Fang Senyan specifically sent a host to open the way in front, and the remaining air force units followed behind. The top of the Spore Highlands looked very flat from a distance, but after people walked on it, they found that there were still many huge rocks about two or three stories high, as well as deep cracks and crevices. They were insignificant when viewed from a high place, but walking on them was like walking through a maze. The terrain was very complex. The entire top of the Spore Highlands was at least ten square kilometers, so it would probably take a considerable amount of time on the road.

When they were struggling to go more than fifty meters deep into the center of the highlands, Fang Senyan, who was walking in front, suddenly felt a creepy threat coming from the front! He suddenly pulled Reef next to him and awkwardly fell to the ground! Less than a second later, a ball of emerald green mucus suddenly appeared and flew across the air. With a "pa la" sound, it hit the host that was opening the way in front. In an instant, the surface of the host was directly dyed into green striped state, and immediately emitted white smoke. It quickly rotted and fell from the air, and in less than ten seconds, it rotted into a pile of rotten meat, which looked somewhat similar to gray-black poisonous mushrooms that had been crushed into渣.

Fang Senyan and Reef looked at each other, smiled bitterly and shook their heads. Obviously, this mission allowed contractors to ride vehicles and risk a beach landing on the edge of the highlands, but it definitely did not allow them to take a beeline straight to the goal in a vehicle. Not even going in too deep.

Otherwise, that host would be the most typical end. Fortunately, judging from the speed at which the host was corroded by the green mucus, even if there were people riding on it, they would still have time to escape. It was not as tragic as being rolled up by that tentacle and digested in a few seconds, resulting in the destruction of the aircraft and the death of the crew.

The group of people encountered this situation, and at this time, they did not dare to be careless. Fang Senyan sent a Zergling to explore the way thirty meters ahead, with himself leading the way and Reef at the rear. At this time, there were only three prototype electromagnetic cloud bombs left, so they had to save them. They could not be used again unless it was absolutely necessary. !~!
