Zerg: Cold and aloof Major General, stop pretending to be innocent, I have a headache!
Chapter 42 Chaotic Stars
After Morgan finished speaking, he headed to the left of the battlefield, while Fei also moved to the right in tacit agreement.
"We don't know the situation inside the battlefield yet. We haven't confirmed the chewing sounds mentioned on the dark web, so no matter how dangerous it is, we need to go in." Fei slowly moved towards the center from the right side.
Parker and Kennan felt a chill run down their spines; this trip might be even more dangerous than they had imagined.
"Parker, activate monitoring," Fei commanded the bug behind him.
In the current battlefield, there are no hidden things that they can't observe. On a vast plain, something might suddenly emerge from the ground, making it difficult for them to hide.
"Yes." Parker stopped, stuck a listening device into the ground, and activated the button on it.
The listening device seemed to have grown legs, with thin roots extending deep into the ground, firmly anchored there.
A signal transmitter extends from the top, and the signal is paired with their communicator.
The data display shows everything is normal.
"Walk."
At Fei's command, they continued their advance towards the central area.
He glanced in Morgan's direction, but could no longer see the three of them.
Just to be on the safe side, they would insert a listening device into the ground at intervals.
The scenes described on the dark web were still vivid in his mind.
"We've come this far and haven't seen a single corpse. Could they have really been eaten by something?" Parker's short hair was already soaked with sweat. He looked around and, after confirming that it was safe, whispered to Fei and Kennan.
"Better safe than sorry." Fei wiped the sweat from his brow and looked into the distance. "We're not far from the center now. If I remember correctly, there's another deep ravine over there."
Their location was actually in the center of the battle between the two armies, and he remembered that there were some natural trenches on the opposite battlefield where they could hide.
"Yes."
No sooner had they finished speaking than a rapid alarm sounded from the communicators in their hands.
They all immediately looked down at the communicators in their hands.
"Monitor number thirteen has reported a reaction; an unidentified object is crawling below," Parker reported to Fei, his expression serious as he looked at the data disk in his hand.
Monitor number 13 was not far from them. He turned his head to look in the general direction of the monitor.
"How deep?" Fei asked him immediately.
"About one kilometer above the ground," Parker said in a deep voice.
"One kilometer," Fei murmured.
The creatures beneath them, moving at the speed of a few insects, should not be able to detect their direction of movement.
Fei continued, "Be careful, don't make too much noise."
After resting for a while, the insects silenced all their communicators and then moved deeper into the area.
Soon, a huge natural barrier appeared before them. Fei walked to the edge and looked down; it was bottomless.
He suspected that the source of the underground noise came from here.
Just as I was thinking this, the communicator in my hand vibrated again.
"Major General," Parker said with a serious expression, his voice low enough for the insects present to hear, "it's Monitor Number Eighteen."
The insects then looked solemnly at the monitoring equipment less than two meters away from them.
The warning vibrations grew increasingly intense; something was about to come up.
"Retreat," Fei gave the order quickly and simply.
Less than two seconds after he finished speaking, the three insects had already retreated to a position of two hundred meters.
Fei crouched slightly, entering a state of alert.
At this moment, they didn't need listening equipment; they could hear the sounds with their own ears.
It's getting closer and closer to the ground.
"Major General, the number is too large. We need to retreat immediately." Kennan frowned as he estimated the number of sounds.
Fei looked at the gap with a grave expression: "Withdraw."
In less than half a minute, nearly ten reptilian beasts crawled out of the crack.
If you get close enough, you might even notice the strangeness in the light in their eyes.
However, Fei was already quite far away at this point.
The three insects stopped only after they had reached a safe distance.
Fei turned back to look at the source of the noise: "It's a strange beast."
He spoke decisively and with certainty.
Upon hearing this, the three insects looked quite grim, realizing that they alone could no longer handle the situation.
"Hopefully Morgan and his team haven't run into each other." Kennan looked into the distance. Although the two teams often clashed, at this moment, he hoped the other side was safe.
"We can retreat in time. So can they. Don't you think they're a team of equal strength to us?" Parker said with unusual composure.
"This matter needs to be reported immediately." Fei looked away and glanced at the time. "Go to the rendezvous point."
"Yes."
"Yes."
When they quickly retreated to the agreed location, Morgan and his team were already waiting there.
"How did you guys get here so fast?" Parker was taken aback when he saw them.
"We turned back as soon as we realized something was wrong," Arthur said matter-of-factly. "And you? Where are you?"
"..." Parker was speechless, having worried about these bugs for nothing: "They've entered the center."
Morgan stood up from the rock: "Have you reached the crevice?"
"Yes." Fei nodded. "How far have you gone? What have you discovered?"
Given Morgan's personality, he believed that the other party would not retreat so quickly; they must have encountered some perilous situation.
"After separating from you, we headed straight for the center, but not too deep. We discovered a loud noise coming from underground very close to us," Morgan said in a low voice.
"I've heard that sound before," he said with certainty.
Fei looked at him in shock. Such creatures as alien beasts had not appeared on the insect planet for many years. How could the other party have heard of them?
Morgan noticed his confusion and said directly, "In the Chaotic Star."
"..." The answer from the other party was beyond Fei's expectations. He asked uncertainly, "Chaotic Stars? Are you sure?"
"Yes, I can't forget it. Back then, when I went to visit relatives in the southern insect tribe with my female father, a group of bandits suddenly appeared and robbed all the insects present."
Our spaceship malfunctioned and crashed onto a chaotic planet.
Although I was young, I clearly remember that we fell into a pile of rubble, and at that time, this kind of noise and screams came from underground.
It was terrible, so terrible that he still remembers the scene vividly to this day.
His father-in-law died there.
He watched as he was dragged deep into the ground and disappeared.
He was well aware of his father's abilities; if even his father had no power to resist, how much less could he?
Upon realizing something was wrong, he immediately ordered a withdrawal from the battlefield.
"And you? What did you see when you went in?"
"It's a strange beast." Fei looked at him and answered very seriously, as if answering his question when he was a child.
Morgan stared at Fei in astonishment: "Impossible."
