Arknights? Colonization Ark!

Whoops!

Why after saying this I feel like I have become a scumbag who even forgets the other person's name after having fun with him/her?

"Forget it, let's find a place where there's no one to talk about it."

Zhang Miao, who had no interest at first, suddenly became interested in the big trouble the other party had just mentioned after calming down. Moreover, this guy was quite stupid. He looked cold as ice, but in fact he was a fool who didn't even understand the ambiguity in his own words.

Skadi nodded. She didn't want to take action. Even though these two men were not as strong as the one in the car, she still felt threatened instinctively.

And she didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said, as long as the meaning was conveyed.

"Yelena, follow Afen and the others around first. I want to talk to this guy alone."

Yelena, whose name was called, quickly adjusted her expression and asked with some concern:

"no problem?"

This white-haired woman was able to run away even after a piece of her flesh was taken out. Her strength is obviously not to be underestimated. Now she is not wearing power armor. What if she encounters danger when meeting alone?

"It's okay, you guys go first."

Zhang Miao waved his hand, not really caring. The purpose of bulletproof vests is to block bullets, and the purpose of power armor is to block electromagnetic rifles and save lives under the bombardment of high-powered artillery fire. Other external functions are just auxiliary.

There's no one here pointing an electromagnetic rifle at him, so it doesn't matter whether he's wearing it or not.

After experiencing the incident with Wei Yanwu, Yelena also knew that Zhang Miao was not someone who would joke about his own life. After exchanging glances with Afen and the others, she left.

"Come with me."

Zhang Miao turned around and walked back the way he came. There was no one in the fields at this time, and it was quite quiet.

Skadi followed without a second thought, which once again refreshed Zhang Miao's perception of this guy.

She didn't even think about whether she was a liar. She was just about to lure her into the mountains and sell her. She was completely defenseless. What she said just now was probably not intentional, but she really didn't think it through.

If it weren't for her outstanding fighting skills, no one would dare to mess with her. I'm afraid she would have been tricked by a heartless man into having a child.

When I walked back to the field, it was getting dark. The dim sun was only half of its head left hanging on the horizon. The gradually fading light seemed to be lingering on this moment of parting. Darkness was engulfing the world, and was about to bring everything into endless nothingness.

嗞

Electric current flows through the lamp tube, and under the action of high temperature and current, atoms fall from a high-energy state to a low-energy state, and the released energy is converted into electromagnetic waves.

The name of this electromagnetic wave is light.

Several lights around the armored vehicle parked on the side of the road suddenly lit up, dispelling the darkness all around it. The increased light made the fields here look like daytime.

There were only two people and the sound of cicadas and frogs left in the silent wilderness. The lights in the village in the distance were gradually lighting up, bringing a different meaning to the boundless darkness.

They stood on the ridge of the field next to the car. The bright light stretched the shadows under their feet, connecting them to the endless darkness that was being driven away in the distance.

"What's your name and where are you from?"

Zhang Miao, with his back to the car lights, had a dark face and no expression could be seen.

"Skadi, the Agor."

Skadi was naturally very beautiful, with long, smooth white hair that sparkled in the light. Standing there, against the backdrop of the light, her originally cold expression made her look like a goddess who had descended to the world, detached from the mundane world.

The premise is not to say those stupid remarks.

"I know that. I'm asking what country you belong to, not your ethnicity."

Skadi repeated it again.

"I am an Agor."

Her answer choked Zhang Miao. If he didn't know that Skadi wouldn't have such an idea, he would have suspected that this guy was deliberately taking revenge.

I asked tentatively.

"The legendary ocean kingdom. I heard it's a perfect utopian world. Why are you here on the shore?"

This thing probably only exists in the fairy tales of the Terra countries and has some records. Most people just think it is a fabricated myth.

Zhang Miao suddenly began to wonder if this guy was being deported because he had committed a crime, but after thinking about the logic of Skadi's behavior, he felt that this was unlikely.

What big mistakes could such an idiot make?

“It’s because of the large group.”

Chapter 73: I want them all!

Large group?

The name is inexplicable. Whenever Zhang Miao arrives at a new place, he will try his best to collect all the information, whether it is from the library or the Internet, he will collect all the records. Now he dare not say how complete his collection is, but it is definitely rich.

But there is no record of any large group.

Wait....nautical miles.

Zhang Miao seemed to sense that something was wrong.

What about seafood?

Only then did he realize that, considering Terra's productivity, it was impossible for him to have never seen any seafood in Longmen, only freshwater aquatic products called scaly beasts.

This is very abnormal, but I only realized it now.

This may also be related to the fact that he himself doesn't eat much seafood and doesn't pay any attention to it at all.

Zhang Miao tried to ask

"What is a swarm?"

If the other party can explain it in detail, it is not impossible to consider it.

But what Zhang Miao didn't expect was that his question choked Skadi.

"The swarm... The swarm is..."

What is a large group...

Skadi suddenly found that she couldn't explain what the group was. Her only memory of the group was

"The swarm is the enemy, the monster of the ocean depths, endless, devouring everything, assimilating everything."

The strange name and description made Skadi's answer even more confusing for Zhang Miao. The description sounded like some indescribable monster.

Occasionally there were some rustling sounds in the darkness, like the sound of some wild animal moving quickly in the grass, which made Skadi's words carry an indescribable weirdness.

"The swarm is your enemy, in the sea, so why don't you come back to the sea to find me?"

Zhang Miao even wanted to open this stupid head to see what was inside.

His words seemed to have irritated Skadi, reminding her of some bad memories. Her originally cold face now had a look of loss. Her lips moved slightly, and there was a hint of grievance in her calm voice.

"I can't go back. The ocean refuses my return."

Can you please learn to talk like a normal person? Zhang Miao was almost confused by her confusing answer. The ocean is not a living thing, so how could it refuse your return?

If the sea is alive, shouldn't Agor, who is the enemy of the sea, have died long ago?

You can't say that there's a guardian in the sea who's a head of the family with a trident, no eyes, and is afraid of his wife, and he won't let you go back, right?

Free silk-spinning dog?

"Then why do you care so much about that piece of flesh? Didn't you grow it back?"

"The Deep Sea Hunter cannot be injured. The blood that flows out will attract the siege of the Sea Si."

"Haisi?"

"A large group."

Azhe...

Looking at Skadi with a wronged look in his eyes, Zhang Miao suddenly felt like he was bullying a child.

But you can't blame me, you were the one who started it!

Zhang Miao really wanted to hit this idiot on the head again. He knew his blood was so dangerous, but he still came out to be a mercenary. Isn't this pure harm to others?

However, if what she said was true, it would be troublesome.

The monsters in the depths of the ocean are endless, devouring everything and assimilating everything...

It sounds too general, and there are many things that can meet these conditions.

Bugs, robots, even those starfish he keeps.

If the difference in technology levels is too great, the weak won't even know what killed them.

But it sounds like this group of Agor people are still fighting back and forth with that large group of Haisi.

Zhang Miao counted the new things he encountered after waking up, and really... I didn’t know what to say.

He had never been to the Imperial Scientific Research Hub, so he didn't know what it was like there. It might be as chaotic as here.

When it comes to making things happen, it has to be this group of scientists!

"What about you? What are you? What are deep-sea hunters? Why does your blood attract the sea heir?"

Skadi was overwhelmed by the questions that came one after another.

The answers were somewhat confusing.

What are the modified soldiers targeting Hai Si, what are they to prevent Hai Si from evolving, and what will adapt.

What the hell, that’s what you’re talking about!

It's inexplicable. He can understand every word, but he can't understand them together.

Why would using long-range firepower allow Hai Si to evolve and adapt, but using a knife to cut would not allow it to evolve?

What kind of logic is this? The person who came up with this theory is mentally ill.

You're just trying to fool fools, right?

His intuition told him that there was definitely something fishy going on here. If it was true as Skadi said, then this Hai Si should be some kind of biological weapon with Gestalt hive thinking.

But this presents a new problem.

Once this kind of creature lands on a planet and reproduces freely, the time it takes to eat up a planet can be calculated in days. It's not that he looks down on Agor, but the war potential of a civilization that can't even fly into outer space can never compare to these monsters that are never full. They must be killed at all costs in the shortest time possible.

Take a knife and chop it for decades.

And it's in the water.

What a genius.

It is indeed necessary to ask the Emperor or Kal'tsit about this matter. They must know some inside information, instead of just knowing half of it like Skadi.

Zhang Miao looked at Skadi who had finished speaking. Her eyes were looking at him silently, and the meaning was very clear.

But Zhang Miao still said righteously

"No, I can't give it to you."

Are you kidding? It would be fine if he didn't say anything, but she has revealed all these things. Even if it is for preventive preparation in advance, he will never give up this biological sample.

Skadi didn't say anything, she just put the sword down from her shoulder and held it in her hand. Her whole body was ready to charge, ready to rush up and fight at any time.

Zhang Miao shouted

"slow!"

Skadi's right foot, which had already been exerting force, went weak and she staggered and almost fell to the ground.

After finally stabilizing himself, he heard Zhang Miao continue to speak slowly.

“We don’t necessarily have to resort to force to resolve this issue.”

"The sample has been sealed with something. There is no risk of it leaking out from my place. But you are the one wandering around outside all day. Even if I give you this sample to destroy, how can you guarantee that what happened today won't happen again? By then, will another person who hurts you still reason with you like I do?"

Skadi looked blankly at Zhang Miao who was chattering nonstop. She had just decided to use force to get it back, but what he said now seemed to make some sense.

Today's injury taught her a lesson. Whether she gets injured or not is not up to her. If she continues to wander aimlessly like this, sooner or later she will encounter something like today.

"How about this, you follow me, I'll help you find your way home, and you just need to cooperate with me in doing some tests, just as a way to make up for the mess you made this time, what do you think?"

Not only will he not give up the sample, he won't let the fish go either.
