Chapter 548

Between the ruins of the abandoned cargo hold, in the space covered with thick darkness, something is surging.

It slowly recovered, the cold limbs and organs gradually warmed, and the special-shaped nerve synapses began to burst out the spark of life.

Everything depends on instinct and memory, not real intelligence. The whole nest around it is awakened, and thinking touches and connects with each other.

The image flickered in the waking subconscious.

Large creatures with bright silver gray hard skin kill their offspring with flames and sharp blades. Although their offspring gradually wake up and join the will of the nest, some others disappear.

An evolutionary necessity that makes other thoughts seem dull appears to have the absolute upper hand.

The nest owner has always been good at concealment. His nature enables him to move freely in dark and humid places.

At the beginning, it was this nature that saved its life in the raid of the alpha legion, just

It hissed and closed its eyes.

Then it opened its eyes again, thinking about the invaders and estimating their number and strength.

It can feel the consciousness of neutron heirs hiding in the shadow around it. It will sacrifice them all for victory, although it does love them.

Yes, that's the word... Love.

It loves its children just as the will of the insect nest loves them, and it will not hesitate to let hundreds of children die, even if it is just to let a giant fall.

Its sudden nameless anger was transmitted to the minds of its offspring through the link of consciousness, and a series of low roars and the collision of chitin shells were heard.

But realizing that it was meaningless, it had to force itself to remain calm.

The recent gene thief looked suspiciously, and the nest owner responded with a gentle hum.

It once again focused on the invaders. It could feel that other invaders were struggling in the siege, while the rest were moving towards their old nest - it also killed the previous wave of invaders in that place, but it had no idea how long.

Soon, their number will increase.

In this way, too many enemies will gather in one place at the same time.

He squatted down and considered his next move.

No, it can't take the risk.

It should reduce the number of enemies before taking the next step.

It leaned forward, let its consciousness wander out, and felt the bright and hot consciousness of the invaders.

Although it is willing to sacrifice its offspring for its own goals, it has no reason not to make good use of every possible advantage.

From that creature as the source, it spread like ripples in the water, and the whole nest was instilled with an instruction——

Attack.

Standard tactical timing: 00.23.21

Soshyan was finally able to enter the data storage room, and the gravity in this area has been restored.

With the recovery of gravity, the artificial atmosphere reappears, and the ship is automatically separated from the failed part by bulkhead,

The restoration of air has also brought new significance——

The sound has been restored.

Not far away, the inside of the storage module rattled like a struggling car engine, and the piston hammered inside the catalyst - soshyan didn't know why the ancient storage machine needed such moving parts.

The sound became more and more noticeable in the six minutes after dieterian's flight attendants returned to the atmosphere.

When soshyan came in, the other players who had already entered nodded to him to welcome him, but said nothing.

Previously, he chased a gene thief who looked special, so he left the team temporarily.

Soshyan clung to his sword and hardly looked at dieterian's works. Instead, he focused on the spacious room and rows of blank catalyst screens.

Even if the breathing air was restored, Loken did not take off his helmet.

He went closer to soshyan and glanced sideways at the busy technology bishop.

"My Lord."

He sent a message to the towering astat,

Sosh looked down. The bionic body on the other party's face glittered because of the reflection of the overhead light - well maintained and clean.

"Reverend Loken, what's up? The aliens are coming."

Loken didn't ask soshyan how he knew what was going to happen.

He was used to human senses, which put him at a disadvantage in company with the soldiers he instinctively called demigods.

"Sir, the machines here are very strange. I can't see their past use, and -"

Loken glanced at the bodies dragged out of the corner, seven dead alpha soldiers, wrapped in Terminator armor

。

They all show wounds created by gene thieves, such as pierced breastplates, torn limbs and shattered helmets.

"What makes the elite soldiers of these traitor legions desperate to die in this place?"

But soshyan seemed to be staring at the distance, a wall covered by shadows, and did not answer.

"My lord?"

"Why are you asking?"

The soldier opened his mouth and still didn't answer.

"You have never questioned your duties."

"I just want... To play my part."

Soshyan walked away with a twisted roar from the communicator.

Loken was nervous and didn't follow.

"I feel your fear, stay optimistic, we will let you live."

"Dieterian doesn't think so."

When soshyan switched between him and the mechanical priest to a limited communication channel through a series of clicks, he finally said something from his heart.

"Out of my only respect for that technical heresy, I won't say that dieterian's work is very slow. If I really want to describe him, I will say that he works meticulously, but you're not stupid, Reverend Loken. You know what kind of person he is. This kind of work is suitable for him“

"Yes, but... Sir, is it really worth it?"

"I sincerely hope it's worth it. It's taken long enough if..."

Suddenly, the internal team's communication rang out, and soshyan interrupted his secret language with Loken.

"Commander Zhan."

"It's me, mark. How's it going?"

"There are too many of them."

"How long can it last?"

Soshyan could hear the heavy breathing in Mark's voice, with a little trembling - the other party must have been badly hurt.

"Two minutes... Or three minutes."

"I'll send someone to pick you up right away and withdraw to the data room. This place is very solid. We'll evacuate immediately when we get what we want."

"Received."

After closing the communication, soshyan immediately called the members of the team and transferred seven of them to support Mark's team and help them retreat.

At this time, he and three soldiers were left in the data cabin.

"Omnisaia! TM is this thing!!!"

Immediately after the support team, the busy dieterian broke out an unprecedented cry of surprise.
