You tell me, this is called daily youth?

Chris's emotions were obviously suppressed a little, and she nodded lightly: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Stepping on the bloodstains on the ground, the team passed through the elevator. The heavy door in front was still open, so there was no need to worry about breaking it down.

This is the warehouse belonging to the research department, filled with all kinds of strange machines, shining with metallic luster under the emergency lights, like small hills.

There were densely packed shelves, piles of debris, half-assembled mechas, and the ground was covered with cables as thick as arms.

The space that should have been spacious became narrow, and the detector showed white marks caused by interference, but everyone had no choice but to move forward. There was no time to look for the source of interference in the messy warehouse.

No one stopped it.

Yuki is still in second place. In such a complex terrain, playing a defensive battle to delay time is the best way, or has the infected's troops been exhausted?

He switched to the demon vision, and this fantasy bloodline skill was obviously not disturbed, but he still couldn't see anything.

"That's strange. Are you really waiting for me to kill you?"

Yuki muttered to himself. He had just chopped down quite a few people and was certain that the infected people would not provide any soul energy, as if they had disappeared without a trace.

In the demon's field of vision, he could already see the soul of the higher-level Zerg through the wall. It was a rich purple mass, but he stopped.

"What happened?" The entire team stopped at the same time and began to be alert to their surroundings.

"It really is right up ahead. The ship's scans are correct." Yuki raised his hand and pointed forward, interrupting the excited girl. "Don't be too happy just yet. There's definitely something wrong with this going so smoothly."

"Did you find anything?"

"No, this is the scariest part."

No one stopped him, and Yuki slowed down instead. This made Chris and the others look at each other and realize that Mr. Yuki was obviously very strong, but always suspicious.

Things that the detector cannot detect cannot be hidden from the Demon's Eye. These are two completely different technology trees. The Zerg needs a large number of templates to evolve in a targeted manner.

Yuki simply used the Demon Eye. The scarlet eyeballs that emitted a faint glow were a bit scary. Except for the distant target and Chris and others, everything in his field of vision was gray.

Not even any guards were left. The infected puppet worms themselves probably don’t have any extraordinary powers.

The bad feeling became stronger and stronger. It was difficult to walk under the demon's vision, but he could record the reactions of the surrounding people that were invisible to the naked eye.

For example, a ball of 'wisp of fire' appeared above the head, a crimson purple color...

"Get down!"

To be honest, it was a bit scary to suddenly speak in the dead silence, but the soldiers had already formed a natural reaction and lay flat on the ground.

woo-

The air finally made a sharp whistle. Yuki turned his head and vaguely saw a squid-like tentacle sweeping over the team's heads. It had suction cups on its surface, rolling up the surrounding shelves.

What the hell?

The worm was lying right above his head, invisible even to the demon's sight. If he hadn't been careful enough, he would have been ambushed by now.

"It's a hunting bug. Everyone, be careful. There are hunting bugs lurking in here!"

Chris's reminder reminded Yuuki of the information he had. Hunter bugs and puppet bugs were similar, belonging to the same species, and their characteristics were also very simple:

Silently and with a mission to hunt down targets, it is what players with low reputation in the Zerg fear the most.

Sneaking in quietly, no wonder he didn't run away.

Yuuki raised his gun and opened fire along with the psychic warrior, sending sparks flying from the ceiling and the 'squid' letting out a sharp whine.

"Be careful, there's an ambush here."

The demon's vision saw more things. All around the team, behind the shelves, and under the piles of miscellaneous items, balls of "ghost fire" were lit one after another. To the naked eye, it looked like a monster expo.

Overhead were squids, some resembling blue hedgehogs, others resembling warrior worms with jellyfish skins. They screamed sharply and crawled out of their shelters like evil spirits.

Yuki turned on the electromagnetic force field, and swung his long sword, leaving behind a series of afterimages, deflecting the incoming spikes. He suddenly realized that this was a great opportunity.

I can't silence someone, but I can be loyal.

"Circular defense formation, concentrate your firepower to clear the way for me." Yuki growled, the crimson lotus fire burning on his body.

"I want to kill the puppet bug alone!"

Chapter 17 I'm in a hurry!

When Yuki saw the crimson-purple soul fire begin to move, and move vertically upwards, he suddenly had an idea.

Above is Area B, and there is an extremely thick steel plate separating the two. Even if he wants to drill a hole, it will take a lot of time.

"The Zerg's target is either the Spark or the Commander. They're so large they can't possibly target just a few players. Isn't this just the right path for me to take advantage of them?"

It is not easy to strike the right balance between loyalty and betrayal, but when the opportunity really comes, he seizes it keenly.

If he doesn't kill Chris and the others, he won't be able to act freely. If the puppet worm says something strange, he will be suspected.

Thanks.

Yuki left the team with a grateful heart. When the lieutenant came to his senses, he had already run to the front, and the tentacle covered with suction cups separated the two sides.

"Open fire, cover him!"

The girl was deeply moved. What kind of person was this? He always rushed to the front as a reinforcement and fought bravely in battle. Why did those people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs still have doubts about him?

A hero who exists only in historical records.

Chris took a deep breath and synchronized Yuki's brave back to all the soldiers in the command center through the data link.

If a person from outside the universe works so hard, why shouldn’t we strive to be the best?!

Beam bullets shuttled back and forth, poisonous spikes passed by him, acid that could corrode alloys fell on his head, and mantis-like hunting insects emerged from the shadows.

The Zerg cannot act, and it is impossible for them to act. They even ignored the various firepower of the psychic warriors and tried their best to stop the advancing Jiecheng.

The man's response was to transform into a raging fire and cut through the thorns with the long sword in his hand.

A heart burning with blood. Half burning.

Yuki didn't know that he had become the protagonist, and just let his soul energy burn fiercely. These insect swarms were a great tonic, and he didn't care about the consumption at all.

His legs stabbed into the floor like javelins, and he stopped sprinting. He saw the pungent acid splashing in front of him, and the shelves several meters high suddenly turned into light smoke.

Highly concentrated acid that even the Reaper armor cannot defend against.

A translucent mantis appeared silently from behind him and slashed at his waist cleanly and efficiently.

A stealthy killer that is difficult to detect.

His eyeballs were moving rapidly, and his legs were half-squatting and stepping down, bringing tremendous power.

The Devil's Secret Technique. Lion Dance!

Before the blade touched his lower back, Yuki finally moved, like a meteor bouncing in the dark warehouse, leaving behind dense trails.

Only fast will not break.

The continuous refractions were difficult to capture. The blade ignited the insect that looked like a carnivorous plant, and before it could turn around, it cut off its body tissue from the side.

Phew.

Every slash spurted out a large amount of acid, which was a nightmare for melee fighters. However, Yuki was too fast and the splashing acid could not catch up with him at all. Instead, the "piranha plant" was ignited and let out a shrill scream.

boom--

The blaster knocked it to the ground, and Chris and the others who were fighting the giant squid above their heads moved forward.

"Mr. Yuki, please leave quickly. We will cover your retreat."

As they moved, more hunting bugs appeared in the darkness. Instinct told them to separate the two. Yuki said nothing and rushed towards the warehouse exit.

The power supply to the entire area was cut off, and the heavy explosion-proof door opened automatically, revealing a clear road ahead.

Looking back, the translucent mantis caught up with them. The Crimson Team blocked the door and used the terrain to become human shields.

"We need to get rid of that Jacson quickly."

Yuki didn't intend to delay any longer, and the target had already disappeared from the demon's sight. He stepped into the corridor with transparent glass on both sides and stretched out the hunter's musket from under his armpit.

boom!

Densely packed shotgun shells filled every inch of space. The hunting insects that were chasing them had no way to dodge and could only cross their blade-like forelimbs and crash headfirst into the wall of bullet rain.

It let out a shrill wail and continued forward despite the pain, then saw Yuki turn around and pull the trigger a second time.

Incendiary projectiles.

The energy in the air was ignited, and the mantis was bathed in flames, squeaking and curling up, but Yuki didn't even look at it and rushed across the corridor.

The view in front of him suddenly became clear again, and the pungent smell made him hold his breath.

"Are these defense forces all pigs? Where are their all-pervasive sensors?"

The ground and walls were covered with scarlet fungal carpets. This thing seemed to be alive, with dense blood vessels constantly contracting and swelling, and from time to time a lump of disgusting yellow-green liquid burst out.

This is obviously not something that can be done in an hour or two. It will probably take at least a few days.

How many days?

Yuki's mind raced. Wasn't this the point at which players would enter? This meant the defense forces were distracted, unable to address the threat right under their noses.

Very brave, really not afraid of death.

He could not smell any calculation or conspiracy, it was more like an instinct that could predict the future. If the player who was willing to be the coordinate suddenly turned against him, these puppet worms that had been buried for who knows how many years would be lost in vain.

"Although I don't know how large this plan is, players are not qualified to be targeted yet."

All the blood vessels converged to the top of his head. The metal had been corroded into liquid, forming molten steel that kept dripping. He had experienced how strong the compartments of this ship were, and even the lower areas were difficult to break open.

A species of insect, evolved specifically for this battle, silently tore open a large hole. All the battles were feints, just to cover the creation of this hole, but there was still one missing...

Squeak!

The sharp whistling sound in his ears made Yuki frown. He could not hear anything from the communicator. The holographic tactical map flickered and all the friendly army symbols on it disappeared.

Well, now there is no shortage.

Yuki was just about to ask, "Aren't you afraid of the early warning?" Then the swarm disrupted the data link. Chris said that was the responsibility of the Information Department.

And there are puppet worms. Why does it feel like the battle is getting worse and worse?

He could guess the swarm's intentions, but he had no idea how humans would respond. He looked at the empty space above his head, then at the flickering light in the corridor behind him, and finally gritted his teeth.

If a Lurker raises his reputation with the Zerg to 'Disgusted', there is nothing to hesitate about.

With a leap, soul energy formed a ladder that passed through the several-meter-thick isolation layer, and the liquid splashed by the burst blood vessels made a hissing sound.

The smell was so overwhelming that Yuki simply held his breath, jumped onto area B, and looked around.

There are rooms of all sizes here, located at the lower part of the battleship's protruding bridge, so the area is not very large, and the cavity is still extending upwards, but he has no desire to go further upwards.

There was a pitch-black darkness there, and it was obvious that something had completely blocked the demon's vision.

Bridge, area A?

Along with the sound of steel tearing, a terrifying feeling of oppression came from above. It was obvious that the swarm of insects had bared their fangs, and humans were also on guard.

"Curiosity killed the cat. It's none of my business."

Yuki didn't want to join the battlefield rashly, so he focused all his attention on his surroundings, but his eyes were covered by a layer of purple and white gauze, and the demon's vision was also blurry.

No wonder it disappeared, there were special spores in the air.

He quickly drank a bottle of molecular antidote he had exchanged for, and saw that the corridor was also covered with fungal mats. These things were still extending forward along the walls, and their surfaces were covered with dense capillaries.

After cutting open the doors on both sides, I saw an unknown machine inside that was wrapped in a layer of fungal blanket and was emitting arcs of electricity.

They are drilling in, giving people the illusion of drawing water.

"Is this the thing that caused the communication to fail?"

Yuki's understanding of information technology is limited to PS5, and he can only guess that this is a group server, and he also sees the limit of the extension of the fungal blanket.

The central database is ahead, and there is still time.

Yuki walked forward with the knife twisted, and finally reached the "clean" area, but saw human-shaped objects lying on the ground. They had dense flesh granulations growing on their bodies, which looked very disgusting.

A swarm of Zerg invaded Area B, hoping to spread the fungal blanket to the central database, and the main force headed upwards.

Yuki quickened his pace. The central database was what the players wanted, and it couldn't be destroyed by the swarm of insects. But he stopped abruptly and turned around.

Swah——

The long sword slashed behind him, and the corpse that had just fallen to the ground suddenly jumped up and attacked. After the slash, Yuki's pupils shrank slightly.
