Chapter 273 - Bug Swarm vs. Aliens (2)
Chapter 273: Bug Swarm vs. Aliens (2)
The strong light illuminated the dark underground of the ice sheet.
In this grotto-like underground, everyone saw a magnificent underground pyramid.
A miracle!
Under the Antarctic ice sheet, there was actually such a prehistoric relic.
Everyone was excited.
Especially the billionaire who funded the expedition, Charles. Willand, who had funded the expedition.
He took a deep breath.
This was what he was looking for!
The other members were even more shocked.
It really existed?
A prehistoric building with the characteristics of three different human civilizations?
Everyone had the excitement of witnessing history.
Therefore, they carefully and cautiously walked forward, up the steps, and into this prehistoric pyramid.
Suddenly..
The expedition team felt their hearts palpitate.
It was as if they had stepped into an extremely terrifying forbidden area.
But..
This feeling flashed by.
They continued forward, passing through the ancient entrance, and entered this incredible pyramid.
As they slowly went deeper.
Someone accidentally stepped on a stone slab.
Kacha Kacha..
A sound appeared in the depths of the pyramid.
In the airship in orbit, three strange-looking aliens in armor looked at the three-dimensional projection in front of them.
They saw everything in the pyramid.
The livestock had entered.
It was time to start the trial!
They pressed a button, and a mechanism in the depths of the pyramid was activated.
The chains started to be pulled up.
The ancient machinery started to rotate slowly.
The mechanism in the pyramid started to operate again.
A huge monster was lifted up from the ice and frost.
… … ..
Ling Pingan looked at the metal door and saw everything that was reflected on it.
He regained his vigor calmly.
“Humans, aliens, ants, and the unknown creatures in the pyramid?”He laughed. “A war between the four forces!”
However, such a plot could not be written in a novel.
It had to be revised.
But now..
Keep reading..
… … ..
The Queen’s body had grown to the size of a bison.
The surface of the huge body was covered with a layer of wrinkled cuticle.
The huge body that looked like a tumor released countless info element.
One by one, the worker ants spread out and began to investigate.
Their tentacles shook slightly, detecting the slightest scent in the air.
The fine hairs on their abdomen and feet listened to the smallest vibration from the ground.
They felt it.
Their tentacles were raised one by one.
Everything they felt was being transmitted through the info element network.
The Queen mother knew!
The prey had entered the field!
And so, it released a new info element.
Under the threat of psionic power, the info element spread to every individual.
And so, hundreds of worker ants began to move towards the pyramid
This was because most of the smell and vibrations came from the pyramid.
In order to climb, these worker ants underwent secondary development, causing the cilia on their stomachs to become as full of cilia as Zhi Zhu’s feet.
At the same time, a pouch filled with corrosive liquid began to develop in their mouthparts.
This would be their offensive weapon.
When the development was complete, these workers climbed up the wall in a dense swarm.
They were kamikaze.
They were kamikaze who collected data for subsequent attack troops and find enemies.
Soon, the entire wall of the pyramid was covered with these fist-sized things.
They searched everywhere for an entrance.
Finally, a worker ant discovered.
It shook its tentacles, and the info element began to spread.
Hundreds of workers immediately gathered.
This was a small space, like an air vent.
The workers lined up and crawled in.
It was pitch black inside.
But the workers shook their antennae so they could accurately identify directions and paths, even in total darkness.
They sensed a scent coming from the air.
A large prey was waking up!
The worker ants also smelled that this huge prey was giving birth.
The embryos wrapped in its genes were being laid one by one.
The worker ants shook their antennae, sensing the command coming from the info element network.
The Queen’s command required them to bring back at least one embryo!
Thus, the worker ants climbed along the smooth tunnel walls.
The complicated internal space of the pyramid was as simple as the way home for these workers.
They swarmed forward.
Suddenly, the leading worker stopped.
It seemed to have smelled something.
The smell of humans was right under it.
It stopped for a moment and continued forward.
These humans didn’t have any genes worth plundering.
… … ..
In the pyramid, the human explorers were walking in this ancient ruin.
They looked at the corpses on the sacrificial altar in front of them.
Everyone was very excited.
Especially the ancient words beside the sacrificial altar.
“They sacrificed their lives so that the hunt could continue…”
A teammate asked, “What do you mean?”
The others shook their heads. “I don’t know… maybe it’s some kind of religious doctrine…”
“But the bones of these people are a little special…”
They looked at the chests of these dead people, and all of their ribs seemed to have been broken by violence.
Suddenly..
A series of strange sounds came from above their heads.
It was as if some small reptiles were passing through in groups.
“What’s going on?” The people raised their heads.
One by one, flashlights shone on the stone slab above their heads, but they didn’t find anything.
… … … ..
Clang!
A long spear pierced through the body of the victim.
The aliens who came out of the invisibility looked at the big hole that was burned out in front of them.
They looked at it and chose to jump down.
This was their coming of age ceremony.
A sacred hunting ceremony!
The prey was ready.
They were just waiting for them to go down and kill the prey.
However..
The leading alien suddenly looked at his wristwatch.
A three-dimensional pyramid image appeared.
There were uninvited guests inside.
A group of fist-sized insect-like creatures were passing through the pyramid.
Their target was the delivery room!
“Roar!” The alien roared.
Someone actually disturbed the sacred hunting ceremony?
This was unforgivable.
They had to be completely destroyed!
The three aliens looked at each other and then resolutely pressed a button.
The button to close the pyramid!
… … … ..
Hundreds of worker ants quickly passed through one pipe after another to reach their target.
Their antennae could sense that the huge prey was accelerating its production.
Embryos were being produced one by one.
The smell of those embryos made them excited!
They were the genes needed by the swarm!
Thus, every worker ant began to secrete hormones.
Under the stimulation of this hormone, their speed and agility were greatly increased.
At the same time, a certain special reserve energy in some individuals was activated.
In the communication of the info element, these individuals stopped.
Their bodies began to spin cocoons.
They began to develop abnormally.
The remaining individuals all crawled in one direction.
However, they seemed to have sensed something and quickly turned back.
..
They looked at the screen on the metal door and saw everything.
Ling Pingan saw all the details that were happening in the pyramid.
The pyramid began to close, and everything was moving and changing.
In the depths of the pyramid, a huge monster was stimulated by electricity and kept producing egg-shaped objects. Then, it was sent to the place where the humans gathered like a conveyor belt.
In the pipe above the pyramid where the human was, hundreds of worker ants were curled up.
They were wrapped in a thick cocoon.
As their master, Ling Pingan could see their current state — the rotten insects were developing..
10% … 15% … 20% ..
There was a line of description below: develop the worker ants into rotten insects and turn all their tissues into a strong acid explosive liquid!
Hundreds of worker ants were hatching.
In about ten seconds, they would be done.
At this moment, the humans in the tomb started to panic.
Because the entire pyramid was changing rapidly.
Everything was beyond recognition.
More importantly, the huge stone doors had already fallen down.
They were locked up.
People started to panic.
Three aliens, however, were moving through the pyramid at a very fast speed.
The whole pyramid was no secret to them.
They quickly found a room.
Here, they stored their weapons.
Opening the weapons cabin, the aliens picked up the weapons stored in it.
One for each of them.
Now, they were ready to hunt!
The sacred rite of passage had officially begun!
Ling Pingan looked at all of this and couldn’t help but worry for his own creation.
After all, he knew that his insect swarm was just some insect creatures.
Even if they could mass produce and reproduce, how could they defeat these fully armed aliens?
However, a scene that surprised him appeared on the screen.
The rotten bugs that had hatched.
Quickly gathered together.
They surrounded each other. They had already lost all their sensory organs, and everything had become their last resort.
Bang!
The one in the center suddenly exploded due to the rising temperature.
The strong acid liquid exploded.
Thus, a chain reaction was triggered.
Hundreds of decaying insects exploded almost instantly.
The strong acid liquid in their bodies splashed.
The explosion made a hole in the slate.
Countless corrosive acid began to corrode the slate along this hole.
Sizzle sizzle..
Green smoke kept rising.
Behind the pyramid, on the mossy ground, the Queen mother’s body began to tremble.
Psionic power rippled around it.
Orders were transmitted through the info element.
Thus, the remaining workers immediately rushed towards the corroding hole.
One after another.
They used their bodies to open a path to the ground beneath them.
This was because their tentacles had already sensed that the embryos were being pushed to the sacrificial chamber beneath them by some kind of machine.
Their scent could already be smelled.
The Queen needed them!
The Queen needed their genes!
For the sake of the swarm, any sacrifice was worth it.
Even if all the workers were dead!
Thus, hundreds of workers rushed over without hesitation.
Sizzle sizzle..
Corrosive liquid rapidly corroded the stone slab.
Finally..
Kacha!
Break the slate!
The human in the sacrifice chamber looked up and saw pieces of slate falling down.
Along with it came a bluish, corrosive liquid.
Zizz Zizz!
The liquid, falling on the remains of the sacrificial altar, immediately corroded the bones into smoke.
They fell to the ground, directly the floor of the stone, corroded a small hole!
“What is it?” The people panicked and raised their weapons.
Ta Ta Ta Ta!
However, at this moment, things were pushed up from the sacrificial altar.
Round objects that were emitting hot steam appeared in front of the people.
At the same time, fist-sized insect-like creatures covered in cuticle quickly crawled out from the holes on the stone slabs.
Their tentacles trembled.
They released a strong info element!
The target has been discovered!
A huge wave was raised in the psionic power network!
The Queen mother immediately became excited.
Her huge body began to tremble.
On the mossy ground, countless follicles bulged.
Now, she wanted to produce precious flying insects.
At the same time, the other worker ants received the order to reinforce the suicide squad at all costs!
The workers who hatched earlier immediately flooded the pyramid!
