Him and their stars

Everyone finally opened a passage on the yellow plush "grassland" and beat back the slime monster like a huge wave of claws and teeth, and finally had to give way to a passage. Everyone moved forward quickly, and after walking for less than two minutes, the color of the brown "ground" became darker and darker, and what stood on it were no longer clusters of fluffy tentacles, but tree-like bone spurs and barbs. .

At this time, some more "normal" enemies finally appeared.

Of course, "normal" is worth having these guys at least finally have the face of a monster. But in fact, the way these guys appeared was far from normal. They are like fungi in the jungle that have absorbed enough nutrients after the rain, and they grow directly from the dark brown carapace. First, buds as thin as hyphae emerged from invisible holes, gathering into giant tentacle-like moving objects, and then wrapped around the hooks on the carapace.

Then, they continued to expand, like mountain peaks rising from the ground. Immediately afterwards, the physical monster broke out of the mountain of mycelium, like a young Godzilla emerging from its shell.

If you ignore the final process of breaking the shell, this is indeed like the rhythm of mushroom growth, but once this time is extended to several times or dozens of times, the scene becomes very strange. What's more, there is not just one, but hundreds of mycelial monsters taking shape.

If it weren't for the halo of will still rotating, I'm afraid someone might have lost all their sanity.

Then, the monster that emerged from the "mycelium" mountain bag finally twisted and shook off the down on its body, revealing its ferocious appearance. They were giant beasts with four fangs. At first glance, they looked like a group of hairless gorillas whose upper bodies were much thicker and more ferocious than their lower bodies, but they had carapace like long beetles.

The upper limbs that naturally step on the ground have no hooves or sharp claws, and are integrated into one body, like two solid battering rams.

Their heads are small, at least compared to their torso, but they have double-digit compound eyes, which are completely covered with

No mouth or mouthparts can be seen on the "leader", but four sharp fangs do protrude from the lower jaw. If you take a closer look, it is clearly made of those hooks and claws that grew on the carapace just now.

Maybe no one here has ever had close contact with this kind of monster. At most, they have occasionally seen some less detailed information.

According to official information, these monsters are called "Star Eater Followers" by Alliance scientists. To put it bluntly, they are parasites of the Star Eater. Just from the naming, you can tell how little the academic community knows about it.

So far, everyone has only speculated that these things may also be a type of "immune cells" of the Planet Eater, used to fight against foreign invasion. After all, the Star Eater's body is so huge that he may ignore some subtle crises.

In addition, these "immune cells" may also help their hosts digest the debris of the planet. You know, although those huge fangs look like they are made of bone, they are actually extremely dense and hard, and can completely tear through hard metal ores.

In fact, even in two lifetimes, this was the first time Yu Lian had seen this thing. But after looking at it from the front for a few more times, he immediately confirmed some of his guesses from his previous life:

"No matter how you look at it, these things are the blueprints of the Thunder Beast! Charlie must have eaten Star-Eating Insects in her previous life!"

In the previous timeline, the Thunder Beast was a specialized elite fighting insect species used in the insect swarm to attack enemies.

Its size and spiritual-like abilities can be adjusted by the lord bugs according to battlefield needs. The largest individual is definitely not inferior to the planet lord-level super giant phantom beast, and its combat power is enough to compete with the giant turtle at the God of War Festival. Of course, the smallest one is the size of an adult mammoth, capable of crushing an entire marine armor company and trampling on it like a marmot.

Of course, due to different spiritual abilities, body shapes, and combat functions, there are naturally some differences in appearance, but the only thing they all have in common is the fangs that are very similar to the carapace and hook material of the star-devouring insect.

Yu Lian also knew that according to Xia Li's genetic testing, this extremely dense bone and teeth had later turned into an extremely sharp single-molecule material that could even cut through the armor of large battleships.

Of course, the above are just Yu Lian's speculations, and there is still a lack of conclusive evidence.

...How about I get two ends and go back to check them later? This idea just crossed Yu Lian's mind, but he rejected it in his heart.

Putting aside whether I have this margin now, the key problem is that the Alliance and the Empire did not actually conduct research on this aspect in the previous life, but they still did not find any valuable information. The difficulty can be imagined. When it comes to biotechnology, the gap between the community and the two hegemons is even more disappointing than that in materials science and energy control.

If I really have a chance, I might as well catch one or two thunder beasts and sell them to white-furred foxes in the future. Yu Lian thought.

At this time, in just a few seconds, the fungus threads on the opposite side had grown into nearly a hundred giant beasts, and they pounced towards everyone.

"What, what is this?" Ina said in shock, "It's too ugly!"

"There are many boss monsters in Gaboria OL that are uglier than this!" Yu Lian also responded.

"But the monsters in Gaboria OL can't grow like mushrooms!" Ina said.

"Oh, this thing is called the Star Eater Follower. It can be regarded as the immune cells of this giant monster." Feifei must have done her homework in advance, and her voice was as relaxed as ever, and indeed as reliable as ever.

"Oh, but you just said that those mucus are the white blood cells of this monster." Ina said to Yu Lian.

"Yeah, so just think of these things as macrophages." Yu Lian replied casually, and then sent a message to all team members: "Keep going! Just think of them as some phantom beasts with quasi-spiritual abilities. ! This thing is far worse than that turtle!"

Since everyone present was a combat type psyker, they had naturally seen last year's God of War Festival and instantly understood what Yu Lian was talking about. But the key problem is that Yu Lian is the only one who has ever faced that turtle.

At this time, Yu Lian's team had already faced the first giant beast.

Everyone originally thought that the next step in the battle would be for the invincible divine champion to use a method beyond their imagination to instantly kill the monster in front of them. Just like at the God of War Festival, he broke into the enemy camp and hit the Four Heavenly Kings of the Astral Knights on the head with a club.

But in fact, it was Meng Jiao who took the lead this time.

This young Highlander warrior had already pulled out two of the four giant swords on his back. One of them is a heraldic machine-specific chainsword with a force field cutter. The other one is a treasure phantom made by Mr. Sonny Grant himself. The main body of the sword is made of an alloy of red gold and orichalcum of heaven. The thickest part of the sword spine is also infiltrated with spiritual energy composed of four seven-star crystal fragments. array.

According to the evaluation of spiritual treasures by the Alliance Supernatural Management Bureau, this has reached the "reflecting light level", which is the second level among the seventh-level treasures.

These are the great nobles of the empire who are full of martial virtue, and they can be regarded as family heirlooms.

Although Meng Jiao was born into a martial arts family on Earth, he had never thought that he would be like this, and he couldn't help but be moved. So the sword was named "The Sword of Loyalty and Courage of the Highlanders", or "Loyalty and Courage" for short.

It means that when he holds this sword, it will turn into a sword of loyalty for everyone's cause, and it also represents the yearning and persistence of all highlanders for loyalty and bravery.

Well, regardless of whether Yu Lian believed it or not, not only did Meng Jiao believe it, but when he held the sword, he really felt that he was seven or eight points stronger than usual.

The blade of "Zhongyong" alone is as tall as an adult man. When there is no armor, it can be used as a horse-slaying sword when held with both hands. But now that there is a heraldry machine, you only need to put the hilt of the sword in the G-type equipment. It can also be used as a half-hand sword.

Fortunately, the Hanhai Sword, which Meng Jiao has studied all his life, is also a very open spiritual martial art. There is no shortage of two-handed swords, one-handed swords and dual-wielding routines, so he will not be in a hurry to change weapons.

Then, I saw this young warrior from the Highlands cross his two swords in front of him, and immediately formed an anti-impact force field, and immediately collided with the giant beast on the opposite side.

At that moment, everyone clearly saw that the giant beast had an obvious retreat. In the wrestling match, it actually lost to Meng Jiao, whose visual weight (plus the heraldry machine) was less than one-tenth of its weight.

Immediately afterwards, the Highlander warrior lit up his chain sword and raised his backhand on the opponent's fangs. The shock caused the giant beast's jaw to tilt upward slightly, revealing a gap. Immediately afterwards, he jumped up, and the "Sword of Loyalty and Courage" in his back hand rolled with thunder and struck the monster's head where the fangs connected. .

Of the four fangs that could overturn an armored vehicle, two were directly deformed, and one even broke on the spot.

Well, although these Star Eater followers may indeed be the blueprints of the Thunder Beasts, they are not Thunder Beasts after all.

However, there is one thing to say. Every time a psychic encounters these behemoths, or those huge man-made hard steel scenes, it will always add a strong touch to the idealistic understanding of this world.

"This guy is only one step away from breaking through the third ring!" Yu Lian glanced at Meng Jiao, and then threw a psychic pulse at the dizzy beast, blowing its head off on the spot. .

...Of course, that thing is not actually a head, but a combination of the central nervous system and sensory organs. This kind of animal, like their parasitic Planet Eater, has no intelligence and relies only on instinct to survive and move. After being injured here, its body obviously staggered a little. It took a few steps back and bumped into its companion behind it. Then it attacked the opponent with its fangs and claws like crazy.

Of course, the target of the attack was not to be outdone, and fought back with a knife, causing chaos.

Immediately afterwards, Ina, who had been moving behind Yulian, bowed half of her body. The mecha retreated and deployed its pulleys and gliding devices, continuing to push her forward. At the same moment, the bracket on the back of her back expanded, forming a stable shooting support.

The sniper lady had unfolded the small light spear cannon, placed it on her chest and started shooting.

The crimson beam penetrated the "head" of the third giant beast. The behemoth suddenly fell into a state of freeze, and Yu Lian took the opportunity to accurately throw a cannonball into the wound. Then he blasted a series of explosive beams towards the body of the fourth giant beast.

Yu Lian's shooting was very ferocious and precise. All the shots were concentrated on the joint position of the giant beast's retreat, forcing it to stumble obviously. At this time, Meng Jiao took this opportunity to rush over again, swung the machete wrapped in lightning and slammed it again, cutting off half of the monster's body on the spot.

At this moment, the Vast Sea Sword almost turned into a huge wave in the hands of this highland young man.

Of course, this kid is just a "bloody" after all. To put it bluntly, he is a complete martial artist. Logically speaking, it is impossible to frustrate such spiritual spells as thunder and lightning flames. The reason why his psychic weapon has such an effect is naturally due to Feifei next to him.

After all, it is "controlling", and enchanting a demon is also a basic operation.

Immediately afterwards, as the bomb silently exploded in another giant beast, its body was torn open, and one-third of its body parts separated from the main body, rolled out for more than ten meters, and landed on Colonel Chaimen. forward.

The battle-hardened psychic warrior suddenly felt his morale rising again. Now look at it, although these monsters look scary, they are not insurmountable. In any case, he is also a third-level player. Even if he is not as good as Yu Lian, is he still not as good as Meng Jiao, a "rookie" who has only been in the army for two years?

"Are you watching? As long as you successfully show off your training during this period, such a giant beast will only be our prey!" He shouted loudly.

The other young people who had the same high morale as him naturally raised their weapons and cheered loudly, and everyone moved forward bravely. Of course, thankfully, they returned bravely, but they still did not forget everything they had learned.

Then, when their weapons came into contact with those giant beasts, their fear melted quickly like ice cubes in the scorching sun.

It turns out that we are still very powerful. The members of the Community Guard thought so.

This is actually very reasonable. Although these "parasites" on the Star Eaters are the blueprints of Thunder Beasts, and although each one can withstand heavy tanks, they are not real fantasy beasts after all. Their opponents are not mortal armies, but psykers who have heraldic machines, have undergone complete military training, and have adopted four-image tactics.

A dozen astral knights from the empire descending from the sky wearing heraldic machines were able to suppress a large-scale riot that swept through a city with tens of millions of people.

They can definitely make thousands of four-armed troll slaves regain their composure within ten minutes, and lie on the ground trembling and begging for mercy.

Instances like the above have happened many times.

The young soldiers of the Community Guard may not be a match for those long-established Astral Knights, but they are better than them because of their advanced tactics.

The history of the previous timeline has proven that the four-image tactic has brought about revolutionary changes in squad combat against extraordinary beings. Whether it is combat efficiency, tactical selectivity and diversity, the survival rate of psykers has significantly improved. changes. Whether it is against an army of ordinary people, against hostile extraordinary beings, against a herd of beasts, or against super-large phantom beasts, it can respond flexibly.

In addition, it seems that the number of combat teams has decreased, but the coverage and monitoring of the battlefield area have also been relatively enhanced. On the contrary, the overall battlefield effect has been better.

Now, they are already proving this with actual combat results.

Sixteen psykers, four highly motivated fighting groups, stormed through this jungle filled with giant beasts and hook blades.

More importantly, this is the first large-scale psychic station since the Community Guard was officially established, and everyone is on the road to glorious victory.
