Chapter 46 Critical moment!
The heavy rain in Stone Town seemed to have drifted to the oasis camp.
Cold rain fell from the sky, and the sound of the dripping rain drowned out many smaller noises.
Lights were turned on in every household in the camp, and capable adults picked up their weapons and walked out of the houses, while the children were left at home.
"Did you hear that scream just now?"
"I heard it. It seemed to come from the southeast corner, followed by a very unpleasant sound, like a pig being slaughtered."
"That seems to be the sound of insects..."
“…”
People wearing black raincoats and rain boots stood outside their homes, exchanging information with their neighbors.
In addition to the permanent residents, more than a dozen resistance groups temporarily stationed in the camp also took action.
These resistance organizations have only dozens of members at the smallest and hundreds at the largest. When they come together, they are a force that cannot be ignored.
Among them, the leaders of the three resistance organizations, "Blue Light", "Blue Bird" and "White Horse", are all third-level psychic creatures, and the names of the organizations are named after them.
However, neither their own powerful strength nor the organization behind them could make these three feel at ease that night.
"Lan Guang, you have seen live insects before. Does that sound familiar to you?" Bai Ma stood under the eaves, looking at the dark and dangerous forest in the distance through the rain, with a little worry on his face.
"It's a bug!" Lan Guang's face was heavy. "There really is more than one bug in this camp. We are in big trouble."
Before, when the insect corpse was dragged back by Xiong Wei, Lan Guang had this guess in his mind, but he didn't dare to say it.
Once it is spoken, the whole camp will fall into panic and chaos will easily occur.
And chaos is good for bugs.
"There must be an insect nest hidden in the forest. We can't act alone anymore. " Lan Guang took a deep breath, "We must gather all our strength together to overcome this crisis."
“That’s right!”
Xiong Wei's voice was heard in the rain.
Wearing rain boots, he stepped through the deep and shallow puddles and came to the camp area where many organizations’ houses were located.
The leaders of many organizations were waiting for him, including Song Zhong and Cheng Pingan. Cheng Pingan was currently temporarily in charge of the entire Beifeng organization.
Xiong Wei said apologetically, "Everyone, I'm sorry for not telling you before, there is actually more than one bug in the camp."
"We understand."
Many leaders are smart people who can think clearly about the pros and cons.
What's important right now is the bug that appeared.
The Zerg nest has not yet been fully deployed, which means that the Zerg are not sure either. They must use thunder-like means to eliminate the arrogant insect that has appeared and show the power of the human race to the rest of the insects.
Xiong Wei made arrangements for all the organization's personnel as quickly as possible, and then called away the three people from Lan Guang.
At the same time, the directors of the three departments of logistics, education, and technology in the camp also came. They were also third-level psychic creatures.
Including Xiong Wei himself, there are seven people in total.
Among them, the strongest is Minister Yan, who is in charge of education. He possesses psychic powers of level 3.4 and is also the physical education teacher for many children in the camp. In this world, there are no sickly physical education teachers, and the proportion of physical education is quite large.
"Where is Commander Bei Feng?" Bai Ma asked, "With him here, this battle will be easier."
"No, the commander cannot come out."
Xiong Wei didn't explain the reason, but just shook his head slightly at Bai Ma.
Bai Ma's face changed slightly as he thought of a terrible situation.
The commander may be seriously injured, but as long as he doesn't show up, he will be a reassurance to everyone in the camp and can also deter the rest of the bugs hiding in the dark.
But once he appears and shows weakness, the situation will be dangerous.
"Everyone, the bug should be roaming in the southeast corner of the forest." Xiong Wei said in a heavy tone, "It's dark and rainy now, the environment is not favorable for us. This battle may be a one-way trip. I hope you can be mentally prepared."
"We understand!"
This is a cruel era, and most members of the resistance organization are ready to sacrifice for the human race.
With the strength of Lan Guang and others, if they are willing to surrender to the mechanical clan, they will definitely be treated very well, and they will never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of their lives, and they will enjoy endless wealth and glory.
But they didn't, they chose this seemingly hopeless path!
"Before that, I need you to prick your palms and let me see the color of your blood."
"good!"
Everyone pierced their palms, and the red blood on their palms confirmed their human identity.
At this time, the mechanical repairman Shu Cheng came.
He is also a third-level psychic creature, but he is not here to fight. Instead, he brings top-level night action equipment to everyone.
If possible, he would also like to participate in this battle, but this battle is too dangerous. Once he dies, no one will build a level 4 armor for Su Xia.
Xiong Wei put on the night combat gear neatly, then walked to Shu Cheng and whispered in his ear: "Boss Shu, please go to the hot spring room and take a look. If the commander wants to come out, please persuade him and make him believe that we can do it ourselves."
"Okay, take care, Mr. Bear!"
After saying that, Shu Cheng rushed into the cold rain again and ran towards the hot spring room at the back of the camp.
On this rainy night full of dangers, everyone is trying to find ways to do their part.
The players also sensed a sense of crisis.
"It doesn't make sense. Why do bugs keep appearing in such an early-stage map? Do people still want to play this game?" The players stood outside the forest, staring at the dark forest, wanting to go in but not daring to.
A few fearless guys had gone in before, but before they could see anything clearly, they were chopped into two by the insects' sharp front claws.
One of them was experienced in a VR hive , with the pain adjusted to 30%, so painful that he almost couldn't breathe.
"How about we report it to customer service? Just tell them it's a bug."
"Let's take a look first. It should be a fight between NPCs. Just wait until the NPCs are done."
“…”
Although it was already past two in the morning, many players were still awake and busy exploring the new land.
The reappearance of the insects interrupted their progress in clearing the land, forcing them to stop and wait.
Under the gaze of many players, Xiong Wei and his seven companions entered the dark forest in the southeast corner.
In the camp, almost all the adults who were able to fight joined the patrol and defense teams. This was destined to be a sleepless night.
Even the cowards in Song Zhong's organization took up arms and joined in the defense.
The members of his organization have the same personality as him, they are timid and afraid of death.
One of the guys whispered, "Boss, these bugs haven't launched a large-scale attack yet. Maybe they don't want to attack us? Maybe we can negotiate with them."
Song Zhong hesitated for a moment: "This..."
"No, forget it!" Cheng Ping'an said coldly, "You can't negotiate with a tiger when it's biting your head!"
