"That's not the case..." Ju'er was in the bar at the moment. The original bartender had gone to see Ximi, so she came to take over. "Well, there was an accident with an ordinary warrior bug in the biological area... Anyway, the bug is now stewing in Ximi's pot. It smells delicious, and the dwarves have gathered around... Well, this is almost a riot."

Fang Qingyun had no doubt about Ximi's ability. She had the absolute charm to conquer people's hearts with just a meal. The same went for Juer. Although Juer was a little bit restrained, after getting to know her, the contrast she gave would make people drop their jaws. Although it might sound a bit arrogant to say this, Fang Qingyun still wanted to say... he was very proud to be with Ximi and Juer.

Katerin's voice came late in the hell network: "Excuse me, I was just in a meeting. It seems that because the people in the engineering department have a romantic fantasy about live ammunition weapons, the samples I brought have won their unanimous praise and recognition. Can you believe it? They praised our flame muzzle, not because of the better heat dissipation and magical enchantment ability, but because the aesthetics of the simple and crude heat dissipation hole made them obsessed..."

Katerin's voice revealed a speechless tone. At this moment, she really didn't understand what these dwarves in the engineering department were thinking. What was most needed on the battlefield was solidity and reliability. Things produced by excessive carving could only be used privately. However, these dwarves in the engineering department seemed to carve weapons as a kind of work of art... They even went for retro styles. For example, the M1000 looked like an interstellar version of the Garand. It had a capacity of eight rounds without upgrading, and the ammunition would be clamped out with a ding after firing.

"Anyway, just pay attention to your safety. If anything goes wrong, run to hell." Fang Qingyun reminded Catherine. He was most worried about Catherine. Catherine was too fragile. Once she was attacked by surprise, she would be basically dead.

"Don't worry, I have installed the arm of the God of Destruction as a separate arm armor on my body." Catherine's right arm was obviously thicker than before, and the dark arm armor was full of various weapon installation ports. In order to reduce the weight, Catherine only installed the Hell Energy Shield and two "Hail", but the firepower was enough to give the dwarves who besieged her a headache: "And these dwarves' shield generators are very interesting. I am trying to combine it with the flesh, and I have some ideas."

From the current perspective, the Hell Network should have planetary-level communication capabilities. Fang Qingyun was still able to contact Ximi and the others who stayed in the command center. This sudden contact made Ximi and the others take precautions, but unfortunately the management did not rush to take action, which made Fang Qingyun a little... subtly puzzled.

If you don't remove the roots, they will grow again in the spring breeze. Anyway, they have done such a drastic thing, why don't they just arrest Ximi and the others? What Fang Qingyun didn't know was that saving people is risky, so it's normal if they really can't come back, but Ximi and the others are serious logistics personnel. What happened? The logistics personnel who were supposed to stay in the command center died on the surface of **s. Who would believe you, the person in charge, if you say you didn't do anything?

Therefore, Ximi and her colleagues' identities gave them a natural guarantee. In order to stabilize them, the management even took out some of their best tricks for them to study.

As long as there are results, Fang Qingyun's bombing will not be in vain. What's more... it depends on where the bombing occurs.

At the moment the drop capsule was launched, the space somewhere in the space drilling platform trembled a little, and a trace of black occupied that area. Then, orange-red energy spread around the black like a thorn in the flesh, and soon expanded into a portal. Viola walked out of the portal, followed by a row of death commandos.

This row of Death Commandos do not have duties like bodyguards, nor do they guard special key points, so Viola did not make any facial modifications to these Death Commandos, but only increased their combat effectiveness. The incandescent eyeballs, peeling skin, and exposed gums are still creepy and terrifying, and now equipped with new firearms and armor, they look like Task Force 141 that has walked back from hell.

Different from the skull masks of others, these death commandos have real half skull faces. If you see them when you go out to the toilet in the middle of the night, it will probably scare you so much that you won't go out to the toilet at night for the rest of your life.

"Hurry up, move everything here, turn off the surveillance equipment, and then detonate the bomb..." Viola wanted more than anything else. Originally, she had to find all kinds of excuses to study this thing, but now, those guys were about to do something destructive. So, after getting the news from Fang Qingyun, Viola naturally didn't mind letting these managers lose a few more things.

Viola crushed the console of the command center connected to the outside with one foot, and her whole leg was almost stuck in the console. When she raised her leg, the smell of burning caused by poor contact between electric sparks and some circuit lingered in her nose, and all the original cameras had distorted screens in an instant.

The first step is completed, and the next issue is bomb disposal. Evelyn, who has been following Viola since she was out of work, is naturally responsible for bomb disposal. In fact, this is also very easy to solve, as long as there is no collision. Evelyn looked at the countdown of the bomb with ten seconds left, pulled it off without mercy, and threw it into hell.

The earth shook, dust flew, and a big hole was instantly blown out at the landing point. Anyway, this will be the bottom of the lake in the future, so just treat it as excavation in advance.

The bomb has been solved, the surveillance has been solved, is there any need to think about what to do next? Although the space drilling platform will still be blown up in the end, all the things with research value inside will be moved away to contribute to the development of Hell Technology.

Chapter 352: Down the Cabin

Perhaps Viola brought enough zombies, and they moved the space drill clean in just half an hour, even the dwarves' clothing changing cabinets were not spared. These important facilities are worthy of reference. If better alloys can be researched, the pressure that the gun barrel can withstand can be increased to a higher level.

In this way, the propellant of the bullet can be modified, and then the military level of the entire hell will be raised to a higher level. Not to mention that the development of these materials will lead to progress in other aspects, and the entire hell will usher in a major technological explosion.

Fang Qingyun once thought about whether to use small-caliber rifle bullets, that is, small-caliber medium bullets. Most modern assault rifles and squad machine guns use 5.56mm or 5.8mm ammunition. It is not like what many people imagine. The larger the caliber of the gun, the higher the damage. This small-caliber ammunition has a better destructive effect in the human body. After the bullet enters the body, it will break into several pieces and cause multiple bleeding points at a time, which is "high physical damage."

But at the same time, the small caliber means poor penetration ability. Not to mention encountering certain creatures with built-in rebound capabilities, it is also powerless against soft bulletproof vests, which means it is extremely ineffective against units with armor.

After much thought, Fang Qingyun finally chose medium-caliber ammunition. The universe is so big that there are naturally many monsters and demons, and there will be no shortage of enemies with strong defense. Although small-caliber bullets can kill unarmored units more quickly, their penetrating power will be greatly reduced when encountering armored units. At that time, the combat efficiency will be reduced exponentially, which is a very dangerous thing.

In addition, if all members were equipped with machine guns, there would be problems such as rapid consumption of bullets and slow reaction in combat. Therefore, Fang Qingyun finally chose a medium-caliber assault rifle as the main equipment weapon of Hell. As for machine guns and individual machine guns that might be developed later, they were just supplements to the anti-armor force.

After dismantling the entire space station to almost nothing left, Viola ordered the zombies to place some explosives to blow the space station apart. Large pieces of wreckage will melt when passing through the atmosphere. Even if the remaining wreckage is found, it will be extremely difficult to analyze anything.

Landing on the surface of the planet **s was not difficult, it was even too easy. Fang Qingyun originally thought that there would be an emergency landing, such as the entire airborne capsule rubbing violently on the ground and metal fragments flying everywhere. However, the reality was not as complicated as he thought. The airborne capsule did not even shake, but only trembled slightly. The experienced old vulture covered his face with his palms to block the direct light from the emergency light.

"We are about to drill a hole... just wait, the 5,000-meter hole has a waiting period." The old vulture closed his eyes and rested.

At the bottom of the airborne capsule is a huge drilling rig, which will start working at full capacity after touching the ground, drilling a long deep well underneath. The drill bit is made of a very precious, wear-resistant and hard metal that can dig out all known rocks on the planet **s and squeeze them into the side wall along the groove on the drill bit, so as to prevent the airborne capsule from being buried by a large amount of loose soil and gravel when it lands.

Therefore, there are such deep wells everywhere on the resource-rich planet **s. The management adopts a gradual approach to mining, digging deeper and deeper like peeling an onion. Then the airdrop capsules in a small area will enter from this deep well. If the minerals at this depth have been mined out, they will continue to drill deeper.

Horizontally dug worm caves and vertically dug dwarf mines coexist in this form on the planet **s. From time to time, some worms dug into the dwarf's deep wells while digging holes, and fell more than a thousand meters from the top to the bottom, with their shells broken everywhere.

The hole in front of Fang Qingyun had already been dug to a depth of 2,500 meters, so when the airborne capsule entered the deep well tightly, Fang Qingyun only felt a slight vibration. But when the airborne capsule landed at a position of about 2,500 meters and began to dig a hole, the vibration and noise were almost unbearable. Fang Qingyun covered Kikuchiyo's ears, but found that the old vulture was still calm and even had his eyes closed to rest.

At this time, Fang Qingyun suddenly thought of a problem. He patted the old vulture, woke him up in the face of the old vulture's dissatisfied eyes, and shouted in the noise: "The person we are looking for also came down in an airborne capsule. When the airborne capsule did not return... where did our airborne capsule come from? And aren't we worried about running into their airborne capsule? Could it be that the deep well we chose is different from theirs?"

Fang Qingyun's doubt was reasonable. If they chose the same deep well as the one the boss and his men took to come down, it would mean that the passage below had been drilled open by the airborne capsule that the boss was riding in. The airborne capsule that Fang Qingyun was riding in would go all the way to the bottom and then crash into the top of the airborne capsule that the boss was riding in. At that time, it would not be a simple matter of car destruction and death.

"That's it?" The old vulture opened one eye. "The deep well I chose is about ten kilometers away from the one they came down from. You don't have to worry about parachuting over their heads. You might as well worry about whether you can withstand the next march. It's a long distance to walk in the rugged underground passage. It's not just walking, but climbing and overcoming obstacles. Leave the navigation to me, you don't have to worry about it."

All right, Fang Qingyun turned his head to look at the display screen. The depth where Qingyun was located above the display screen was digging downwards at a high speed of one meter every five seconds. If it continued to move forward at this speed, the airdrop capsule Fang Qingyun was riding in would reach a depth of five thousand meters in just over two hours. Although enduring the noise for two hours was more torturous than he had imagined.

Two hours later, with a loud bang, the airdrop capsule crashed into the tunnel dug by Diao Chong after a short free fall. Old Vulture glanced at the depth indicator, stood up and opened the door: "We are almost there. We are lucky to have landed in the tunnel dug by Diao Chong. Otherwise, we would have to use a single-person drill to force a way out."

In fact, dwarf mining is the process of searching for minerals in the tunnels dug by worms. Natural tunnels become roads for dwarves, and worms generally widen tunnels and open up halls and other places to allow large worms such as guard worms to pass through them. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the problem of tunnels being too narrow.

When Fang Qingyun stood up from the parked airdrop capsule, he felt the ground beneath his feet was shaking. The rumbling feeling seemed to penetrate deep into his bones. His legs were now soft, as if he was stepping on cotton.

"Aren't you an old miner? Why do you act like it's your first time down a mine?" The old vulture opened the closed gate of the airdrop capsule as if nothing had happened. An automatic staircase was slanted into the ground to facilitate the dwarf's descent. The lights came on, illuminating the salt pit in front of them as bright as day. Perhaps it was because of the vibration during the landing just now, Fang Qingyun heard all kinds of insect hissing sounds in his ears, but he didn't see any within his sight.

"My previous missions were as firefighters, digging tunnels and going wherever there were many insects. This is the first time I've felt the vibration of drilling into the ground like this." Fang Qingyun took a breath and took a deep breath of the underground air. Although there were few plants in the salt pit, the oxygen was surprisingly abundant. He originally thought that he would need to bring his own oxygen tank, but he never expected that the air underground was still fresh, but with a little stink of insect feces and the salty taste of the salt mine.

Fang Qingyun felt uncomfortable, and so did Kikuchiyo. Although she had experienced so much, this was her first time landing under such circumstances. Not only did her face turn pale, but her stomach was definitely a little churning. She hadn't recovered her strength yet. If Fang Qingyun hadn't blocked her ears, she would probably still be insensitive for a while because of the loud noise before.

As for Yulis, she acted quite comfortable. She was even checking the submachine gun in her hand. This kind of vibration was commonplace for her. The rookie leaned against the mining mule in a daze. If it weren't for the mining mule, he would probably lie on the ground.

Old Vulture raised his hand and fired a flare with his flare gun. This flare was loaded in a large arrow-shaped shell. Once fired, it would split into two parts like a discarding sabot armor-piercing bullet. The part with lighting ability was inserted into the sand and wall along with the arrow. The reaction and combustion of the chemical substances allowed it to form a high lighting point, illuminating the surrounding situation from top to bottom. The remaining part fell off and became metal material that needed to be recycled.

"We have to hurry." The old vulture released the Boscos in the manned area of ​​the airdrop capsule. These Boscos scattered like birds and beasts, each turning on their headlights to be alert to the surrounding situation. Once the bugs appear, these Boscos will be the first line of defense: "The huge vibration and sound when the airdrop capsule lands will scare away the bugs around, but they will soon gather together and approach us. Fortunately, we brought mining mules with us, and we don't need to mine next. Let these mining mules carry our supplies and move with us."

Fang Qingyun thought what Old Vulture said made sense. Now that the obvious retreat route had been cut off, mining naturally had to be put at the back of the priority list. So the mining mule robot with four legs that could move on its own was transformed into a self-propelled cart for transporting goods. In this way, the team could be formed into a simple convoy, with Bosco in charge of reconnaissance and Fang Qingyun and others in charge of protecting the convoy, which was transporting a large amount of useful supplies.

While tying the large supplies to the mining mule Morin, the old vulture told Fang Qingyun his thoughts: "We can't go back now. What we can do is to quickly collect the supplies. After the rescue is completed, we will use the airdrop capsule to go from 5,000 meters underground on ** Star to the surface of ** Star to set up a camp and wait for the arrival of other dwarves by chance."

"It's a good idea, but I think we have some uninvited guests." Fang Qingyun turned on the Hell Energy to detect life, which is much more useful than infrared. Fang Qingyun could see the dense red dots gradually getting bigger in his field of vision. He opened the gun safety and prepared for battle: "I smell the scent of those tricky insects, and there seem to be big guys among them!"

Chapter 353: Which type of contact?

盐坑就是因为其周围土壤含盐量高而得名的,这里的盐几乎覆盖在土壤的表面,坚硬的鞋底才在这些粗盐的盐块上发出嘎吱嘎吱的声响,这些刁虫隧道的顶部还分布着一些大大小小的倒立盐锥,稍有震动就会让这些盐锥化作从天而降的达摩克利斯之剑。刚刚空降舱降落下来的时候,这些盐锥已经有相当部分如同下雨一般坠落下来,圆润的锥头在盐锥本身的重量面前化为一往无前的利刃,轻而易举的扎穿了地面,露出半截不规则的断面。“哪个方向?”老秃鹫就算再怎么经验丰富也没法从四面八方的虫嘶声中听出那些刁虫的进攻方向。也就得益于方青云他们的运气好,这一下坠落刚好坠落在刁虫挖掘出的大厅之中,四通八达有很多的闪身空间,大不了打游击转一圈回来再带点东西,如果坠落在那种虫子用来移动的通道中,想要展开兵力都非常困难。指望着一条前后相通的隧道拦住那些刁虫无异于寻死,只要禁卫刁虫掩护一下,矮人们的活动区域就会被大幅度的压缩,毫无战略纵深的情况下,一旦有禁卫刁虫死在了比较靠近的位置,那些对矮人效果较强的酸性气体就会喷发出来,到时候就只能任由宰割了。“在那边”这次指出方向的不是方青云,而是尤丽斯,感知生物这种能力对于生命系的巨龙来说简直是呼吸一般的本能,如果她想,她甚至能用法术让植物成为树人战斗,只可惜盐坑基本上没有什么植物,很难有什么植物能在这种盐含量超标的地方生活。那么问题来了,这些刁虫是靠吃什么活下来的呢?老秃鹫将信将疑的往那个方向打了一发照明弹,照明弹脱壳之后命中了刁虫用以封堵通道的紧实泥土,但由于泥土相对松软,照明弹弹了一下之后落入了密密麻麻的虫群之中,瞬间就在墙上和天花板上照出了许多刁虫的巨大影子。密密麻麻的刁虫群让老秃鹫头皮都快飞起来了,他往那个方向开了一枪,爆出的绿色血液在墙壁上溅出一抹痕迹后,老秃鹫终于确信自己见到的不是假像,此刻的他不由得大骂出声:“那些管理层不是把这里定成二级难度吗?这是二级难度吗?这起码三级往上吧!”他毫不怠慢的装填了照明弹,向周围四个方向各打了一发,瞬时间整个大厅都变的灯火通明了起来,原本影影绰绰的刁虫在灯光下无处遁形,原本安静的爬动声在意识到被发现之后立刻速度全开,细密的脚步声让这些刁虫如同南方的大蟑螂一样爬的飞快。这些刁虫大部分只是最普通的战士刁虫,没有前肢进行防御或攻击,只会张个大嘴像个傻子一样迈着六条腿直愣愣的往前冲,方青云一眼扫过去没看见哪怕一只刀锋刁虫或者近卫刁虫,倒是看到了最后面慢悠悠爬过来的禁卫刁虫,只不过此时的战士刁虫已经发起了英勇的冲锋,装甲厚重但速度较慢的禁卫刁虫自然被甩在了后面。其实这么多刁虫并不难处理,方青云在游戏当中见过更多,那时候一发照明弹打出去,沿着隧道上下左右全是各种各样的刁虫,那才叫真正的需要认真起来对付的虫潮。而且这些刁虫颜值上并没有那么恐怖,方青云最怕的是节肢和多刚毛的动物,比如蜘蛛。像刁虫这种虽然有节肢,但是浑身上下干干净净没毛的就不在方青云的惧怕范围之内,而刀锋刁虫虽然有毛,但大多分布在上半身,节肢上没毛也不会让方青云产生害怕感。刁虫发起冲锋的时候,这边的轻重火力就向刁虫倾泻了过去,老秃鹫不愧是老侦察兵了,他一梭子泡泡点杀掉了当中威胁程度最高也是最脆弱的吐丝刁虫和吐酸刁虫。吐丝刁虫全身呈现紫色,在赭红色的地面和墙壁上显眼的不行,而吐酸刁虫就不一样了,他的红色外壳让他像是披上了伪装衣的狙击手一样,一旦让这两种刁虫发起连绵不绝的远程攻击,就连方青云也得在明面上暂避锋芒。一口酸液破盾、一口丝四秒减速的含金量懂不懂啊?甚至担心这些刁虫过于凶悍,会冲入人群中造成不可挽回的损伤,老秃鹫还用钩锁枪吸引着刁虫的仇恨,很熟练的勾走了一批刁虫,甚至还有一只大号的禁卫刁虫。见过更多数目刁虫的方青云心理根本没有被吓到,他淡定的举起了“冰雹”,这把突击步枪的射击手感相当的舒适,而且中口径的弹药对于这些刁虫来说简直是降维打击,一颗子弹只要爆头就能让刁虫彻底死透,只不过有些时候角度不对,被爆了头的刁虫还会在冒着绿色血液的情况下往前冲两步再倒毙。方青云并没有把子弹打的哗哗响,他有节奏的点射着靠近的刁虫,愣是构建出一道无法越过的死亡线,一旦有刁虫靠近就会尝到方青云的一颗子弹,随后倒毙在死亡线前面。菊千代则不熟练的架起了自己的“老东西”泼水一般的倾泻子弹,这种中口径短弹轻而易举的将那些刁虫打的千疮百孔,虽然威力不如方青云那么大,再加上菊千代用枪不熟练,但一时间也没有刁虫能够冲到菊千代的旁边。至于尤丽斯……额,她似乎把驯虫大师点到了EX,此刻的她安抚着一只禁卫刁虫,正在做虫骑士,讲道理,接下来大伙也不愿意自己走路,如果能够驯服一只大号禁卫刁虫帮忙运送物资就更好了。博斯科在空中飞来飞去的寻找机会,一旦发现有刁虫还在全速前进,就飞低一点保持悬浮,同时展开安装的两把小枪,针刺一样的子弹噼里啪啦的打在那些刁虫身上,电击让那些刁虫的肌肉痛苦的抽搐着,脚步也不自觉的慢了下来。随后方青云就用子弹狠狠的招呼这些刁虫,他的弹匣底部压了三发曳光弹,当他的子弹打出一发曳光弹的时候,他就会开始拿新弹匣准备换弹,等到最后一发曳光弹被推送上膛之后,方青云就会按下卸载弹匣按钮,再装上一个新的弹匣。很快,越过禁卫刁虫发起冲锋的战士刁虫就团灭了,而原本拉着一大批刁虫离开的老秃鹫也如同人猿泰山一般回来了,虽然他的这个行为给自己增加了风险,但同样也减少了正面战场的压力,而且老秃鹫显然也不是一般货色,他只带回来一只荧光绿色的禁卫刁虫,剩余的那些棕绿色的战士刁虫全被他料理干净,如果不是他想要省点子弹,估计那个禁卫刁虫也会死于他的枪下。方青云从自觉管理后勤的菜鸟那里拿到了一颗粘性手雷,这种粘性手雷是枪手的专用,看起来像是一个表面上有洞的卵形手雷,可一旦拉开保险栓弹开拨片,其洞内就会刺出带有倒钩的尖刺,扔到虫子身上就会牢牢固定住,威力相当可以。方青云两步冲到了禁卫刁虫的面前,一脚将原本躲在禁卫刁虫身后,看见方青云过来后从旁边探头过来想咬一口的战士刁虫踩成了饼,发现眼前多了个敌人的禁卫刁虫正要张嘴吐酸,方青云一记左摆拳打的禁卫刁虫两吨重的身体侧仰,随后一只手抓住禁卫刁虫的上半张嘴,视其獠牙若无物,将手雷丢了进去。拉了弦的手雷冒着烟固定这禁卫刁虫的口腔里,方青云又补上一脚,让禁卫刁虫头昏脑涨,随后快步退开。意识到不对劲的禁卫刁虫想要把嘴里的刺刺球吐出来,但已经晚了,随着一声闷响,禁卫刁虫覆盖着装甲的天灵盖高高飞起,在地面上砸出一个深坑来,方青云退的快,并没有把禁卫刁虫特有的酸性血液溅到身上,死亡的禁卫刁虫很快化成一个酸性气体发生器,肉眼可见的绿色酸气在周围弥漫开来。说能打是真能打啊,方青云这彪悍的放在矮人当中也没几个的行为让老秃鹫惊掉了下巴,他怎么也没想到居然有人能跟小战车一样的禁卫刁虫角力……“闪开!”尤丽斯的大喊声让老秃鹫回过神来,刚刚跟在他背后的那只禁卫刁虫已经在刨节肢腿了,显然是要进行一次冲锋,老秃鹫一发钩索枪飞速远离,扭过头却看见了让他更加吃惊的场面。尤丽斯此刻正骑在一只禁卫刁虫的脑袋上,那只禁卫刁虫显然对其充满了亲昵感,当尤丽斯一手指前时,禁卫刁虫毫不犹豫的开始了冲锋,好几吨重的大玩意儿冲起来像是一辆小坦克,当即和还在原地蓄力的禁卫刁虫撞在了一起。噼啪的甲壳碎裂声不绝于耳,原本能够抵挡子弹攻击的甲壳在碰撞中碎裂,如同弹片一样飞射向其他方向,尤丽斯从自己所在的禁卫刁虫身上高高跃起,跳到被撞得头昏眼花的禁卫刁虫身上,此时这只禁卫刁虫已经失去了反抗能力,尤丽斯白嫩的小拳头高高扬起,擂鼓一般的一拳头就锤在了那只禁卫刁虫身上。生命系巨龙对生命系特攻的心脏暴击一瞬生效,突发心肌撕裂的禁卫刁虫当即倒毙,表面上只有甲壳产生了一点损坏的禁卫刁虫从口中溢出一些酸性的血液,宣布了自己的败亡。

Chapter 354: Kikuchiyo's Sword Skills Demonstration

This little girl should not be underestimated. If Fang Qingyun's fighting ability was still within the old vulture's cognition, then Yulis's ability to hit the target from a distance was unbelievable to the old vulture. Such a big guard bug would require a lot of explosives or a large number of bullets to defeat, but now it fell down in front of such a punch...

Could it be that these imperial guards were made of mud? The old vulture was puzzled, but he had more confidence in this expedition.

He originally thought that the camp would be in chaos when he returned this time. After all, no matter how much he boasted, it could not change the fact that Fang Qingyun did not know some basic knowledge of mining. However, the fighting power they showed was unexpected. The soldier Diao Chong was shot dead, the guard Diao Chong was killed by tough means... There was even a super ruthless man who tamed the guard Diao Chong face to face...

The management has no idea what they have provoked. If these ruthless people really want to survive, they can really sleep in a bug's nest.

"There is still one more. Don't you want to try the knife?" Fang Qingyun retreated to the side of Kikuchiyo and gestured to Kikuchiyo.

Seeing the other imperial guard insects falling down like a whirlwind, Kikuchiyo couldn't help but feel a little itchy. She nodded to Fang Qingyun, then put away her submachine gun, put her hand on the knife, and walked quickly towards the last imperial guard insect.

Kikuchiyo has never officially tried the sword since the demon sword Gabon was forged. Kikuchiyo only knows that the sword is very sharp and can cut bamboo shoots like a rolling knife cutting butter. She doesn't know exactly how sharp it is. The big guy in front of her can just be her first prey.

Kikuchiyo's steps seemed to be against the wind. The closer she got to the Imperial Guard Diaomushi, the slower she became. At the same time, her whole body was like a slowly opening bow. Her white fingers were pressing on the hilt of the knife. Her whole body maintained a strange balance, with her center of gravity sprinting forward, but her steps were getting slower and slower.

Murderous intent was brewing in her body bit by bit. Fang Qingyun could feel the murderous intent overflowing like the aroma of opened wine. It seemed as if a strong wind was blowing in the underground where there was no ventilation. Even the old vulture, who was not very sensitive to the breath, felt the oppressive feeling as if a prehistoric behemoth had awakened... That feeling was like the stunning glance that the fearless alien insect cast at him when he broke the cocoon of the fearless alien insect for the first time.

The old vulture subconsciously held his breath, and only after he had held it so hard that he saw stars did he realize that his breathing had turned into manual mode. He breathed in big gulps, trying to dispel the fear.

Kikuchiyo's heart at this moment was as calm as still water. The closer she got, the calmer she felt. The fangs of the Imperial Guards were like cotton candy in front of her, and she couldn't feel any fear at all. Kikuchiyo's murderous aura also made the Imperial Guards feel fear. When the almost fearless Imperial Guards retreated, the shock shown by the old vulture even made him temporarily overcome his breathing.

Kikuchiyo put down the knife, the only thing in her mind was the words that Fang Qingyun said when he introduced himself to the other dwarves: Don't underestimate her, if she gets serious, the knife in her hand can cut the several-ton thing of the Royal Guard Diao Chong into sushi.

Her lips slowly curled up into an arc. Since you introduced yourself like this... then I will try to cook such a large "ingredient".

She slowly pulled out the knife, her movements so slow that it seemed like a long shot. The knife in her hand hung at her feet. Then she slowly put the knife back into the sheath, let out a long breath, and returned to Fang Qingyun's side. The imperial guard Diao Chong, who was her prey, also stopped moving.

The old vulture was obviously dissatisfied with this high start and low end. He was about to express some disappointment, but he saw Kikuchiyo pick up the scabbard and press the blade with her fingertips. There was a light click and she uttered a word softly: "boom!"

The moment the blade was tightly inserted into the scabbard, the originally motionless Royal Guard Bug underwent a slight change. The old vulture discovered that the Royal Guard Bug seemed a little twisted, and acidic mist was generated all over its body.

With a subtle sound, the head of the Royal Guard Bug fell off, and the covering shell remained connected, just as it was in life.

This simple action was like pushing down the first domino. Sword energy burst out from the whole body of the Imperial Guard Diao Chong. The lingering sword intent was like wild cursive writing, raising dust on the ground around it. The Imperial Guard Diao Chong was like a duck that had been pieced together and put together. Once it encountered some external force, it would collapse with a loud bang.

Pieces of green worm meat were evenly separated, each piece was only about two centimeters thick. If the size of the Royal Guard Bug was taken into account, this thickness could be described as as thin as a cicada's wing. At this moment, the Royal Guard Bug was scattered all over the ground like building blocks that were carelessly knocked over by a child. The piece of meat that rolled the farthest was almost rolling in front of Fang Qingyun.

"How is it?" Kikuchiyo hoped to get an evaluation from Fang Qingyun.

Fang Qingyun was generous with his praise: "You have made a lot of progress, which is very consistent with my stereotype of traditional sword masters."

Kikuchiyo smiled, and in her smile there was not only the cunning of a young girl but also a little simple shyness. Fang Qingyun wiped his hands on his body and touched her head to show encouragement.

"Is the knife easy to use?" Fang Qingyun patted the scabbard. Because his hands were too broad, this action seemed to have tapped some places that should not be tapped... Anyway, Kikuchiyo, who seemed to have adapted to the situation, blushed again. If Fang Qingyun had not asked a few more questions, I'm afraid Kikuchiyo's next sentence would have been "I agree."

Although she was a little disappointed that she didn't hear what she wanted to hear, Kikuchiyo quickly got rid of the embarrassment. She stroked her long hair and tucked the small amount of hair that had fallen behind her ears due to her quick movements. The charm at that moment made Fang Qingyun miss the first half of Kikuchiyo's sentence: "...It feels good, very suitable."

The old vulture joined the discussion while shaking his head and smiling bitterly. This behavior of not considering other people's feelings obviously made Kikuchiyo a little resentful. If the old vulture had not joined in, perhaps she could have made further progress?

"I thought you were all joking, but you were telling the truth..." The old vulture glanced around. He saw the soldier worm that was shot in the head and died suddenly, the guard worm that was smashed to the ceiling by a thunderbolt, the tamed guard worm... and the guard worm that could almost be thrown into the hot pot and cooked as meat slices: "You are really amazing. If the management... Oh, let's not talk about it anymore."

As if realizing that he was going to say something that would ruin the mood, the old vulture stopped talking in time. However, the feeling of leaving the words unsaid was really unpleasant. Fang Qingyun shrugged and changed the subject: "By the way, have you ever tried worm meat?"

The old vulture was shocked by this idea, and he waved his hands quickly: "Don't try it blindly, if something goes wrong with it, you may even lose your life."

"It's okay, it should be edible," Yulis interrupted. She patted the head of the Royal Guard Bug under her crotch, and the Royal Guard Bug lowered its head obediently to make it easier for Yulis to get down. "I just tried to analyze it. The big green one over there... that is, the Royal Guard Bug, has no toxins in its body. We just need to deal with its acidic blood and the acidic gas that will evaporate after death. Otherwise, it will easily explode in an open flame."

Fang Qingyun nodded in understanding. He stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then took out a short-bladed holy sword from his waist and activated his omniscience. He easily picked out the parts of the Royal Guards' Insect Scrolls that were not stained too much by the acidic blood.

After picking out the meat of the imperial guards' maggots, Fang Qingyun walked on the battlefield like an old butcher. Salt grains crunched under his military boots. He glanced at the dead soldiers' maggots around him, as if observing which part was easy to eat. From time to time, he dragged over a maggot's corpse for dissection and shook his head at the body parts shattered by bullets.

"By the way, Old Vulture, do you have any way to contact the higher-ups?" Fang Qingyun asked the Old Vulture without even turning his head.

"When the management installed the explosives for us, my personal terminal had already been disconnected. Not to mention that we are five thousand meters underground. Ordinary radios cannot reach so deep. If there is no dedicated announcer watching the radar, it will be a fantasy for us to contact it. Why are you asking this?" Old Vulture was a little puzzled.

"Because I have two friends who are good at cooking who stayed at the command drilling platform. If you have their contact information, I would like to ask them how to cook worms. They are super chefs who can even make metal into amazing things. A mere worm meat will definitely make him never come back." Fang Qingyun still remembered that when they were in the Food Addiction Dungeon, Ximi was a ruthless person who even thought about how to cook and eat C-04. If a mere worm meat was not cooked well, it would be a shame to his reputation.

"I don't think now is the time for a picnic?" The old vulture's mouth twitched. He didn't understand why Fang Qingyun did this.

"You guys are collecting bullets while I'm cleaning up the battlefield. This is not a waste of time." Fang Qingyun's dagger seemed to come alive and he cut the soldier bug apart with a few cuts. He threw away the limbs without much meat and dug out the lungs and other internal organs, leaving only the edible parts. "Besides, our supplies are limited, and we have to settle for a long time. If we don't collect enough bug meat now, how are you going to survive when we reach the surface? Photosynthesis?"

The old vulture was speechless. If he went to the surface, it would be difficult to find maggots. Besides, it would take time to grow plants. So how could he survive before the first crop matured? He couldn't really rely on photosynthesis. "But what's the point of collecting them now? Our communication won't suddenly improve. If we don't know how to cook them, the maggot meat will be nothing but waste."

"Who said I don't know?" Fang Qingyun turned his head. His advanced studies in the Food Addiction Dungeon were not just for show, so cooking well was not a problem for him. "If I didn't have Ximi's support, I wouldn't be able to cook so many dishes. I could only use simple grilling and smoking."

"Okay, you're the boss, we'll all listen to you." The old vulture turned around and seemed to find that there was one person missing from the team: "Wait, where's the guy with the hole in his head?"

Chapter 355: Dr. Blowhole's Laser Weapon

After the old vulture said this, Fang Qingyun realized that someone seemed to be missing. Where was Dr. Blowhole? He hadn't been seen during the fight just now. Could he have quietly slipped away and was causing trouble somewhere?

Although Dr. Blowhole looks a bit silly in the original work, his character creation is actually all about highlighting the penguins' resourcefulness, but he does have his own abilities and personal charm, and he also has some more evil ideas in his mind. For example, he once gathered an army of minnows and crabs, but built a "ring of fire" for heat generation in Antarctica or the Arctic, in order to accelerate the melting of glaciers.

Fang Qingyun believed that if Dr. Blowhole ran away now, with his ability, he might be able to create a Zerg cannon to counterattack Deep Rock Galactic Group in a few years. If Fang Qingyun did not know that he had the ability and that he should be able to control him, he might have dealt with him like he dealt with an ice cream cone?

"Dr. Edgar!" Fang Qingyun shouted. The huge voice spread far away in the empty cave and caused another burst of insect hissing.

"First, my name is Dr. Blowhole, and Dr. Edgar is a zombie. Second, is it safe outside?" Dr. Blowhole's voice came from inside the airdrop capsule. Fang Qingyun wiped the green insect blood splashed on his hands and arms, and then he realized what a mistake he had made. Dr. Edgar was obviously Dr. Zombie King in Plants vs. Zombies, but he actually stuttered for a moment.

"It's safe outside now. If you had come out any later, all these bugs would have been roasted." Fang Qingyun was joking with Dr. Blowhole. How should I put it? His previous impression of him had always been the evil doctor who was fearless and occasionally a comedian who could hardly move on land without his unicycle. Now seeing his fearful side, Fang Qingyun's impression of him was completely shattered.

"Can what the doctor did be called... running away?" Although Dr. Blowhole knew it was embarrassing, he still "rolled" down from the airborne capsule. Now his means of transportation is... a hamster ball? The hamster ball is a double-layer structure filled with water, which can be ventilated when needed. At the same time, there are four small wheels on the side. If the transparent body of the hamster ball is replaced with steel, the whole hamster ball will look like a combat vehicle.

"I wanted to try my deadly laser gun, but it didn't work. I had no choice but to return to the relatively safe drop capsule to try to repair it..." Dr. Blowhole explained why he didn't show up: "If this little machine is bitten by a gnat, then I will only have one hour left to survive in the salt pit."

"I understand. So, have you fixed it?" Fang Qingyun nodded. Once down there, drinkable water and food became key resources. People could only survive for three days without water. If Dr. Blowhole needed to be replenished with enough liquid to maintain skin moisture, so much fresh water would not be enough. He might even have to add some salt into it.

"…This is the most embarrassing part. There is no way I can get out of here. As soon as I got out of the drop capsule, I got into this thing and then I realized that my gravity belt was still outside. So I could only hide in it like a fool and couldn't do anything…" Dr. Blowhole looked a little depressed. He had always regarded himself as the commander, but when faced with the emergency, he panicked and did such a reckless thing.

"Okay." Fang Qingyun rubbed his hands with sand and salt. After making sure that they were not stained with any insect blood, he picked up the gravity belt from the ground and patted the dust off it. "Is this thing waterproof? I'll put it in for you directly?"

Dr. "Waterproof" Blowhole used his fin to pull open the top, revealing a round opening: "If it's convenient, could you take apart the laser gun and hand it over to me? I'll check what's broken."

Fang Qingyun studied the laser gun and after checking it for a while, he figured out how to disassemble it. Simply put, it needs to be twisted in a certain direction to be disassembled, just like the little toy that was suspected of topology. It is impossible for it to fall suddenly during normal shooting and it will only be destroyed by external force. But as long as the angle is correct, this laser gun can be quickly removed.

This made Fang Qingyun look up to Dr. Blowhole. Being able to design such an ingenious structure meant that he was no mediocre talent. Perhaps in terms of production, it would be impossible to produce in large quantities and quickly due to the complexity and difficulty of processing of the parts, but even using this structure to make some small gadgets could greatly increase the ergonomics of certain equipment.

Dr. Blowing Hole had already put on the gravity belt by this time, and flew out of the inside through the gravity belt. It seemed that because he was bitten by the insect several times, Dr. Blowing Hole's tail fin had a large bald spot. Fang Qingyun could clearly see the pink tender flesh that had just grown on Dr. Blowing Hole's tail fin. The surrounding skin also looked particularly ugly, like a chicken that was shedding its feathers in patches.

"So, can you still swim?" While the old vulture and the others were unloading, Fang Qingyun started chatting with Dr. Blowhole: "I feel that your tail fin has become like this. It must be difficult for you to swim. After all, this is the most important part of the tail."

"Why else do you think I got a gravity belt? Damn, I don't even have fingers." Dr. Blowing Hole rolled his eyes at Fang Qingyun. After realizing that he couldn't take it apart for inspection without fingers, Dr. Blowing Hole relied on the gravity belt to get into the airdrop capsule. After searching for a long time, he finally found what he wanted: a device with four mechanical arms installed on the back.

Dr. Blowhole got into the device and started researching with the help of four auxiliary robotic arms. Seeing that he had no intention of continuing, Fang Qingyun nodded at him and added worriedly, "Call me if you can't get into the water tank later..."

"Go on your way." Dr. Blowhole didn't even raise his head. The four robotic arms started working rapidly as if they were alive. At this moment, they had already removed the outer shell of the laser gun.

Fang Qingyun walked out of the airdrop capsule. The old vulture was sweating on his forehead. He had taken off his upper body except for a short-sleeved shirt. Most of the scattered things were loaded on the four-legged self-propelled mining mules. Three metal machine mining mules that were as tall as dwarves could transport the supplies safely. As for some large objects that could not be put into the entrances of the mining mules, such as water purifiers, food compressors, batteries that could charge the airdrop capsule, etc., they were all tied to the back of the guard worm. For the convenience of calling, Ulysse also gave the guard worm a name, "Little One".

I have to say that this title contains some personal emotions.

The entire drop capsule was moved clean. Fang Qingyun checked it and returned to the drop capsule after making sure nothing was left out. "So can it be repaired? Doctor Blowhole?"

"...can't be repaired." Dr. Blowhole was very frustrated. "I thought this thing would have all kinds of accidents, so I brought a complete set of maintenance tools and several batteries for battery life. But after checking it, I found that the transmitter was damaged... Now this thing can only be used as a large heater. Maybe it can help me get through the difficult night?"

"...heater?" Fang Qingyun touched his chin and thought for a moment: "Let's not talk about what we can do for now. We need to explore further. You don't plan to stay here, do you?"

"I'm not that stupid." Dr. Blowhole retracted his four mechanical arms, which made him look like a big spider with its body curled up. He relied on the gravity belt to put himself in the "hamster ball", and then skillfully operated the joystick in the hamster ball, and the whole fragile car began to move.
