I Am the Swarm

"Maybe it's because we've dug into their core!" says Dr. Barthes.

Hearing this, everyone fell into silence. Thinking about it carefully, this possibility is very high.

"Send more people and take down this crypt today!" General Masai, the supreme commander of the expedition fleet, issued an order.

After the general's order was issued, Lieutenant Colonel Closs, the base chief in the area where the battlefield is located, almost sent out all the troops under his command, leaving only a few personnel to maintain the normal operation of the base.

Lieutenant Colonel Cross is an extremely young female Rickon, a top student in the Command Department of the Military Academy. At the same time, she was the youngest captain in the expedition fleet.

However, even so, among the few ground bases, with her qualifications and normal procedures, it would be difficult for her to take this position.

However, it is said that she has a twin sister who works in a confidential research institute. Her parents are also people with hands and eyes, and the family is very powerful.

With these, it seems reasonable to sit in this position.

But since she took the position of the base's top officer, she has also been devastated. First, the patrol team disappeared for no reason, and they should have assumed a lot of responsibility, but because they were the first to discover the enemy's situation, and her immediate commander, Major General Porter, was a friend of her elders, this was a blessing in disguise.

But then, in the area under her jurisdiction, the crypt where the alarm was first issued was selected as the breakthrough, and a large number of engineers and armed forces assembled.

Most of those personnel are not under her jurisdiction. With such a large number of people, it is conceivable that her life must not be very comfortable.

And just now, after the meeting ended, Major General Porter asked her to seize this opportunity, because the combat location was in her jurisdiction, and she had an inherent advantage. If under her leadership, this crypt can be captured in one fell swoop, then this time the credit will be enough for her to raise her military rank by another half level.

Therefore, she broke the boat and sent out all the forces under her command. If she was not afraid of being too exaggerated and making people laugh, she even wanted to send out all the chefs in the base.

The battle was extremely fierce, and the Zerg's counterattack had dispatched at least 200,000 raiders.

However, apart from taking advantage of the Riken tribe's paralysis at the beginning and causing great casualties to them, the subsequent attack can only be regarded as a death charge.

These flesh and blood bodies couldn't get through the dense barrage of bullets from the Rickon tribe.

The battle ended after three hours. This time the Zerg abnormally did not retreat to the cave at the end, but fought to the last soldier.

After a brief cleaning of the battlefield, the Rickens divided into several teams and entered from multiple caves.

The soldiers were cautious, the fire-breathing soldiers took the lead, and the other arms were also on alert, wary of raiders who would come from nowhere.

But after they advanced several hundred meters cautiously, they were not attacked.

This is very abnormal. You must know that before, their team had penetrated less than a hundred meters at most, and they had to retreat under the harassment of the raiders.

"Could it be that they already have all their troops in the wave just now?" A soldier said suddenly, startling the nervous crowd.

"Shut up, you idiot!" The soldier's boss yelled and shrank his neck from the scolding, but everyone unconsciously agreed with this statement, after all, the reaction of the bugs today was too abnormal.

The underground passage is very complicated, several teams meet from time to time, and then separate at the next fork, but in the end, most of them came to a huge cave.

There are layers of white silk hanging on the walls of the cave, and some tumor-like objects appear in the white silk from time to time, which looks very strange.

"What the hell is this?"

"It's kind of scary!"

"So sticky!"

"Something like a thin rope."

The soldiers were chattering, they had never seen such a thing on Riken.

"Captain, what should we do?" This is the Winter team. They have been stationed on this battlefield from the beginning, and now they are going deep into the cave. As special forces, they naturally do their part.

And at this time, their 50-member special forces team should be the highest level among the teams gathered here.

"Can you contact the base?" Winter asked.

"No, there is magnetic field interference here, and the communicator cannot be connected." The communicator replied.

"Then everyone be careful, pay attention to vigilance, let's go up and have a look."

"Captain, this place is a bit big, do you want to throw two flares?"

Wen Te didn't answer, but stepped forward carefully, touched a handful of white silk, and rubbed it on his hands. This kind of white silk is very sticky, and it is difficult to remove it sticking to the gloves. He casually took out the lighter from his back waist, lit it and put the white silk on the flame.

The white silk was not ignited, but curled up into a ball, which did not look flammable.

Winter thought for a while, and said, "Two lightings towards an open place!"

"Yes, Captain."

Two small sun-like flares illuminated the cave as bright as day, and some soldiers who failed to remove their night vision goggles in time were almost blinded by the flash.

In the nervous scan of everyone, nothing unusual was found.

"Strange, are those bugs really dead?"

"Let's make a group of three, check it separately, and be more careful. I don't want to use you as an example to warn future generations." Finding that there is no danger, Wen Te ordered.

Immediately, under the cover of each other, the crowd slowly dispersed.

"Captain, come quickly! Let's see what this is!" A member of the Special Forces, who was standing next to a tumor made of white silk, shouted in surprise.

Wen Te hurriedly took a step and came to his side to see that the tumor had been cut open by the team members with a knife. It seemed that this was a very curious young man.

He probed through the gap and looked inside, and it turned out that what was wrapped in white silk was a small beast. He had seen this kind of beast before on the grassland, and personally led a team to capture a few of them and send them back to the base laboratory.

Unfortunately, without special treatment, these beasts cannot be used directly, so I don't know how they taste. Thinking about it, Wen Te's saliva drools a little.

But he was an elite fighter after all, so he quickly got rid of the messy thoughts in his mind.

He went to several white filament tumors next to him, and cut them open one by one with the short tactical blade.

Sure enough, each tumor contained a beast, and they were all species on the grasslands, very common.

"This is their storage room, where they store food!" Winter quickly analyzed the function of this cave and these white silks.

When Winter moved, the other team members came over one after another.
