Chapter 23: Saving the Oasis Camp
Danger!
Extremely dangerous!
Who would have thought that in this peaceful and harmonious human camp, there were horrible insects living.
In the prophecy scene, Xu Yuncang let out a low, hoarse scream, and his sharp exoskeleton limbs suddenly stabbed towards Su Xia, and his bloody mouth bit Su Xia's neck fiercely.
This is the nature of the bug, he likes weak prey.
[You were sucked dry by the bugs and died a horrible death]
[The news of your mysterious disappearance began to spread in the camp]
[This bug is extremely powerful. It is not recommended to start a fight now. Please find a way to heal your wounds first, pretend to be friendly with it, and then slowly investigate the situation in the oasis camp.]
Extremely powerful?
How strong is it exactly?
The dying Su Xia would definitely activate his talent "Life Burning" and fight to the death at the cost of his life, but he still couldn't break free and couldn't even let out a scream.
This was a completely one-sided crushing!
Only by recovering to level 3.6 as soon as possible and wearing complete armor, Su Xia may be able to fight.
Su Xia found a description of this insect in her memory: "Skeleton parasites can parasitize various organisms and read the memories of the parasitized organisms. They have strong camouflage abilities. There won't be too many of these parasites in a nest. There should be only a very few people in the camp who are parasitized."
These bugs are evolving madly. They look stupid in appearance, but the intelligence of advanced Zerg is not inferior to that of humans and machines.
[You triggered the mission "Save the Oasis Camp"]
【Do you want to accept the task? 】
Su Xia had no choice but to accept it.
There was no way to run away now, so we could only stay in the camp and look for a chance to turn the situation around.
The insects have set their sights on him. Once he gets angry, he may not even be able to get out of the forest and will become a meal for the insects.
[Obtained mission: Save the Oasis Camp]
[Task Description: You have discovered traces of Zerg in the camp. The danger of death is always around you. Once the Zerg tide breaks out, the entire camp will be destroyed and disappear in the long river of history.]
[Please find the parasitic creatures in the camp, find the Zerg nest in this area , completely destroy the nest, and kill all the Zerg]
[Task rewards depend on completion]
"There must be an insect nest in this forest. The insects only dare to eat me secretly now, which means the nest is not ready yet." Su Xia thought for a while, "But the forest is too big and boundless. Normal people will get lost if they walk far in it. Even if we let everyone in the oasis camp look for the insect nest, the hope of finding it is not very great, and they may even die in the mouth of the insects."
Su Xia needs a lot of help.
These helpers must not be afraid of death, not worry about getting lost, and have a natural spirit of adventure (seeking death).
Um, gamers!
The question now is, how to make these players listen to him?
All of this may only be known after the official launch of the server.
At this time, Xiong Wei asked: "Commander, how do you feel ? How about letting Mr. Xu take a look at you now?"
"I'm fine, the injury isn't serious." Su Xia declined politely, "Many team members are receiving treatment from the doctor. I plan to go see them first, and then go directly to the Psychic Hot Spring."
"That's good. I hope the Commander can recover soon!" Xiong Wei said with a smile, "It's getting late. I won't bother you anymore. I'll have a good chat with the Commander tomorrow and have a few drinks together!"
"Okay, Mr. Bear, take care."
Su Xia immediately stood up and sent Xiong Wei out the door.
As predicted, Shu Cheng soon left and returned to his mechanical workshop with the broken Black Wolf armor.
Xu Yuncang extended an invitation, saying in an old and hoarse voice: "Commander, you feel very weak. Come to my place tonight for treatment. I have recently prepared several good healing potions."
"Thank you for your kindness, old man, but my teammates still need me." Su Xia refused again, "I'll come back to see you in a few days when things are stable."
"Okay, then I'll prepare those potions first."
Xu Yuncang forced a smile on his old face.
This smile, from a normal person's perspective, is quite kind, and it is impossible to tell that he has been controlled by insects.
He turned around, moving very slowly, with a hunched back, wearing a gray robe, and walked towards the pharmacy step by step.
Along the way, many children greeted him.
"Grandpa the pharmacist!"
"Good evening, Grandpa."
“…”
Xu Yuncang glanced at these fresh and tender lives, slowly lowered his head, and licked his cracked lips.
Behind, Su Xia did not move, just staring at Xu Yuncang's back.
This guy's profile is pretty weird.
[Name: Xu Yuncang? ]
【Race:???】
【camp:???】
[Psychic level: ???]
【……】
A series of question marks, even after the name there was a question mark.
If all the infected people have this kind of strange panel, then Su Xia only needs to spend some time to find them one by one.
Not far away, the young man Liu An, whose arm had been bandaged, greeted Su Xia.
"Commander, look at my hand!" He smiled and shook his bandaged arm.
"Well, get well soon."
A few lines of text popped up in front of Su Xia's eyes.
["Commander's Last Wish·Mission 2" has been completed]
[Young Liu An arrived at the gathering place of the resistance organization, his vital signs are normal]
[Task reward obtained: Primary Psychic Potion x3]
[Task rewards can be collected at any time]
The primary potion did not have much effect on Su Xia .
In the original owner's memory, this primary potion is aimed at psychic creatures below level 3.
On the way to escape, Su Xia was injected with one. After all, his real level was only 2.6. He thought it would be useful, but the effect was minimal.
Immediately afterwards, the third round of tasks appeared automatically.
[“Commander’s Last Wish: Mission 3”]
[Task Description: Kill the traitor Zhao Si]
[Quest Rewards: Primary Psionic Potion x5, Intermediate Psionic Potion x3, Skill "Eye of Delusion"]
Zhao Si was in Coral City, waiting for Su Xia to fall into his trap.
Su Xia cannot go with this identity for the time being, but that doesn’t mean he can’t go with any of his other identities.
He's still a gamer!
You can use your player account to go to Coral City to check out the situation first.
It's already 7:40 in the evening, and there are still 20 minutes until the server opens.
The bracelet suddenly sent a reminder:
[It is detected that your roommate is calling you. Do you want to travel back immediately? ]
Su Xia did not cross over immediately, but ran to the back of the camp and came to the room where the psychic hot spring was located.
Xiong Wei had already greeted the guards, so Su Xia was not stopped.
"Commander, please come in."
The guards were very respectful to him.
Su Xia looked at the panels of the guards, confirmed that their panels were all normal, and then entered the room.
In the center of the room is a steaming hot spring pool.
A small piece of meteorite fell here at the beginning. Although this area did not produce psychic energy, it produced hot springs containing a large amount of psychic energy, which was of great benefit to psychic creatures.
