From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 32: Abyssal Woodlice Queen
In the afternoon, Lei Jinhao's team of psychics occupied Gardenia Beach and placed animal carcasses on the beach to attract abyss woodlice to come ashore.

This future "Storm Boxing King" had already assembled a team of more than fifty psychics just one month after the invasion of the abyss.

There are more than fifty people with special abilities. If you want them to obey orders, you can't just pay them some salary.

Therefore, Lei Jinhao must have financial support behind him, otherwise he would not be able to support so many subordinates.

……

At the Baoshan Lighthouse on the coast, Su Muyu saw that Gardenia Beach had been occupied by someone else and was a little angry: "How abominable! They took our territory."

Lu Heng looked at the surging waves on the sea, his expression very calm: "Don't be angry, this sea area will not be calm for a few days anyway."

"But I'm still very angry. If we can kill woodlice for two more days, maybe we can get two more crystal cores." Su Muyu decided to continue to be angry.

Lu Heng smiled calmly and said, "Ordinary Abyss Woodlice can't produce anything good. It's time to move on to the next plan."

"What plan? How come I don't know?" Su Muyu blinked.

"You don't need to know." Lu Heng reached out and tapped her forehead.

"You'll become stupid if you keep tapping your forehead." Su Muyu pouted in protest.

"You've been stupid enough. There's no room for further decline."

After Lu Heng teased her, he turned his head to the sea.

Judging from the wind and wave conditions on the sea, the abyss weevil swarm should appear in a day or two at most.

However, this "Storm Boxing King" is too arrogant.

Even though the profits from hunting Abyss Woodlice were not high, Lu Heng did not intend to give them the opportunity to spawn monsters. He simply took out his spare cell phone and made a call.

After the call was connected, neither party spoke.

After waiting for a long time, the other party finally asked, "Who are you?"

Lu Heng greeted in a normal tone: "Hello, Inspector Chen."

This number belongs to Chen Linian, a senior inspector of the Iron-Blooded Supernatural Investigation Bureau.

"who are you?"

The same question was asked again on the other end of the phone.

Lu Heng did not answer his question and went straight to the point:
"Under the reefs in the Gardenia Beach area, there is a mother abyss woodlice that has laid tens of thousands of eggs. In a few days, this batch of abyss woodlice should come ashore from Gardenia Beach.

"Someone is attracting deep-sea woodlice to Gardenia Beach. I estimate that the insect swarm will come ashore early, and many people will die in the surrounding area."

After finishing his talk, Lu Heng hung up the phone and removed the battery from the spare phone.

Make the call.

In less than an hour, the Iron Blood Action Team drove over in armored vehicles, took over Gardenia Beach, and drove away all of the silver-haired man's men.

Followed by.

Tiexue dispatched a speedboat to conduct exploration in the waters of Gardenia Beach and began to deploy operations.

the other side.

The silver-haired man was injecting nutrient solution and a newly developed energy recovery potion in the hospital when he suddenly received a call from his subordinates.

He learned that Gardenia Beach was blocked by the official supernatural armed department, and his team was driven away just after taking over Gardenia Beach, without getting any demon crystal core.

When the silver-haired man heard the news, he was so angry that he smashed his phone with a bang.

……

Tiexue acted quickly, sending out Perception-type psychics to scout the waters near Gardenia Beach, confirming the presence of a swarm of abyssal tideworms, and then immediately began deploying operations.

In the early days of the abyss, low-level abyss monsters were no match for the iron barrage of the armed forces.

If a swarm of deep-sea woodlice appears on Gardenia Beach, only a few armored vehicles and high-rate heavy machine guns are needed to destroy the deep-sea woodlice that come ashore.

However, the abyss monsters have high IQs.

Once landing is blocked, they will immediately disperse and go ashore from other directions.

By that time, the armored vehicles would not be able to catch up.

Therefore, if we wait until the insect tide is formed before dealing with it, the situation will be difficult to control.

The most correct way is to reduce the number of abyss larvae as much as possible before the larvae tide forms.

The most important thing is to kill the queen insect as soon as possible.

If the mother insect is not eliminated, there will be a steady stream of abyss woodlice hatching.

If the mother worm hatches the next generation of mother worms, the swarm of woodlice will spread, and thousands of kilometers of coastline will be affected.

the next day.

Iron Blood issued a bounty.

Hunt down the deep-sea woodlice in the Gardenia Beach area, with a reward of 1 for each one.

The bounty for the Abyss Woodlice Queen is 100 million, and all the spoils from hunting the Queen belong to the hunting team.

Starting from this day.

The rental prices of speedboats, yachts and fishing boats have skyrocketed dozens of times.

More than a dozen teams of superpowers gathered at Gardenia Beach, rented boats, and hunted abyss woodlice at sea.

The abyss woodlice are only secondary. The strong teams all target the queen woodlice.

For the top team of psychics, a bounty of 100 million is not very attractive; the value of the queen insect itself is the key.

The queen insect's level is higher than that of ordinary woodlice, which means that the demon crystal core that is separated after the queen insect's death must be of a higher level.

……

Although there are many ships hunting deep-sea woodlice at sea, the efficiency is not high because deep-sea woodlice can hide in the deepest part of the seabed, and it is difficult for humans to dive that deep.

If you wear a diving suit and dive into the seabed, you are not going to hunt deep-sea woodlice, but to deliver food.

Therefore, most teams of psychics can only catch the abyss woodlice by fishing.

Deep-sea woodlice are generally one meter wide and two meters long. This is a very large size, but they can still be caught with professional shark fishing tools.

Moreover, the abyss woodlice are very bloodthirsty and are easily bitten by the hook when using animal flesh and blood as bait.

You can catch Abyss Woodlice by "Fishing", but you cannot catch the mother woodlice.

The top team of psychics, their target is still the queen.

If you want to find the queen insect, you have to go into the water.

Therefore, the prices of all water-related skill crystal cores on the Crystal Core Dark Web began to skyrocket.

Skill crystal cores such as [Underwater Breathing], [Deep Diving Air Pressure Balance], and [Energy Flippers] that can improve underwater mobility have all been sold out.

However, the top psychic teams bought these skill crystal cores not for use by core members.

The number of skill slots of psychics is limited, and it is impossible for a powerful psychic warrior to learn a skill like [Underwater Breathing].

Unless this psychic wants to dominate the ocean in the future and learns skills related to water, he will make such a choice.

Humans have always been land creatures, and those who follow the path of Aquaman are always a minority.

Therefore, after these water skill crystal cores were bought, they were given to marginalized people in the team, who were responsible for diving into the water to explore and search for the queen insect.

……

On a luxury yacht, several psychics pulled the cable and dragged an abyss woodlouse onto the boat.

The abyss woodlice rolled onto the deck of the yacht and twisted its body to create several dents on the deck.

The originally luxurious and elegant yacht was now dirty and messy.

After the abyss woodlice was pulled up, a man in a black suit who looked like a bodyguard walked to the door of the cabin and said to the people inside: "Master Lin, another one was caught."

A young man in his twenties in the cabin picked up a bright silver revolver and walked out of the cabin door.

Several psychics on the deck used tools to hold down the abyss woodlice.

The young man held the revolver, pointed it at the back of the abyss woodlouse's head, and fired three shots in quick succession.

The dozens of pairs of legs of the abyss woodlice straightened up immediately, and it lay on the deck without moving.

After killing the Abyss Woodlice, the young man looked at the upgrade prompt and said happily: "Everyone did a good job. Today's bonus is doubled."

"Thank you, boss." Everyone responded in unison.

……

Binhai Baoshan Lighthouse is a tourist attraction in this seaside city.

Standing on the lighthouse, feeling the sea breeze, you can overlook the blue sea and the cargo ships returning in the distance.

However, there were no tourists at the lighthouse today.

Because the authorities had issued an early warning, people living around Gardenia Beach were evacuated.

So today, there were only Lu Heng and Su Muyu on the Baoshan Lighthouse.

As more and more demons appear around the world, public opinion can no longer cover them up.

As more and more rewards were offered by the authorities and the waters of Gardenia Beach were blocked, many people began to know about the abyss invasion.

Lu Heng received several calls from his parents, all because of their worry.

"Son, why don't you go home and live? The situation outside is not peaceful right now. I've seen many people say they have seen monsters." Li Xiuyun was very worried after seeing a lot of news about monsters from the abyss.

"Many places have closed their roads now. I heard that the entire road to Gardenia Beach is blocked. It seems like there is a Godzilla in the sea. I have to go through Gardenia Beach to go home..." Lu Heng has things to do now, so he can only find an excuse to get away with it.

"Then don't come back for now. You stay in school. The school should be safe. Don't leave the school unless necessary." Li Xiuyun immediately changed her mind because she also saw the news last night that the waters around Gardenia Beach had indeed been blocked.

"Okay, got it." Lu Heng comforted his mother and quickly found a reason to hang up the phone.

The situation on Su Muyu's side is similar, and he also needs to appease his mother's worries.

After she finished the call, she switched to the reconnaissance eagle's vision and flew a circle over the sea.

"Many teams are killing deep sea weevil in the sea. Should we join them?"

"We can't rent a boat now, and hunting deep-sea woodlice like this is too inefficient." Lu Heng shook his head.

If you want to hunt deep-sea woodlice in the sea now, you must first rent a boat and then look for deep-sea woodlice on the sea.

If you are lucky, you can hunt three or two deep-sea woodlice in a day, but the harvest is shared by everyone on the ship.

"Then what should we do?" Su Muyu felt a little unhappy.

"Wait for the queen insect to appear." Lu Heng looked at the waves on the sea with a very calm expression.

"The queen insect should be hiding very deeply, right? I see many teams want to find the queen insect." Su Muyu felt that finding the queen insect was a bit difficult.

For others, finding the queen insect is like looking for a needle in a haystack, but for Lu Heng, he already knew the standard answer.

In the previous life, the scene of the abyss weeds landing on Gardenia Beach was very spectacular, and related reports were everywhere in Binhai City.

At that time, many big forces spent money to hire mercenaries to hunt demon crystal cores and search for the queen of the abyss woodlice.

When the queen insect's nest was finally found, some reporters went into the nest to take first-hand photos.

Therefore, Lu Heng didn't need to look for it at all, as he already knew the location of the queen insect's nest.
