Zhu Xiong, the Black Beetle Breeding Suit Warrior, and the four psychic exoskeleton mechas worked in tacit agreement to separate the three third-level superior Fallen, and then pulled them into their own battle circle.

The first tentacled Fallen broke free from the iron net. His body was already covered with wounds left by the grappling hooks, dripping with blood, but the wriggling flesh sprouts were healing quickly. This injury could not weaken the third-level Fallen.

After abandoning their personality, they acquired bodies that were comparable to monsters, with constantly mutated and enhanced physiques and twisted spirits. To a certain extent, life alone was indeed stronger than most humans.

"You all die."

Repeated obstructions made the Tentacled Fallen furious. If he rushed out again, he would really be dragged to death here. The insect team had already arrived not far behind him.

The furious Tentacled Fallen swung its huge tentacles, and then lashed out at the Insect Team members.

The fierce attack carries huge spiritual energy fluctuations, and the red light is flashing continuously.

Overclock!

Du Quanhui immediately started the overclocking mode, and the energy system of the hidden mineral crystal fruit in the black beetle breeding suit was activated.

With a third-level mineral crystal fruit as the core, several second-level mineral crystal fruits, and first-level mineral crystal fruits, a powerful energy burst out in an instant.

The thin energy shield immediately became more solid, and its color also turned light blue, like jade.

boom

Du Quanhui used the thick insect armor on his arms to push against it. With a bang, the energy shield continued to sway. His whole body was hit and he staggered back quickly, but he was not injured.

"How can it be!"

The Tentacled Fallen Class couldn't believe it. He was a third-level advanced 'evolver'. How could this second-level advanced guy withstand his attack?

Anger arose spontaneously, and with his eyes wide open, two tentacles covered with barbs sprouted out from his back, and they swung violently towards Du Quanhui like an octopus.

Du Quanhui had just received a blow. Although there was no obvious damage at this time, he knew his situation, and his face had already darkened slightly under the colonial mecha.

In order to counteract the blow just now, he directly consumed a lot of energy. If he continues to fight, he will soon exit the overclocking state.

"Attack together."

Two teammates on the left and right who were also second-level superiors rushed up and blocked him side by side. The originally independent psychic shields suddenly connected with each other at this time and turned into a psychic shield.

bang bang muffled sound

Three tentacles landed on the psychic shield, shaking the light blue shield cover, but there was no sign of breaking it.

But this time, Du Quanhui and the three of them only staggered a few steps, and their strength was once again evened by a few points due to their combination.

boom

The attacks from the beetle hand cannons continued to fall on the Tentacled Fallen, and other black beetle warriors had already surrounded him and attacked him.

Although the attack of the psychic bullet is not enough to penetrate the body of the third-level superior fallen, every time it explodes, it will tear huge wounds on his body, and blood will continue to drip.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! How dare you!"

The Tentacled Fallen kept roaring, and he attacked the Black Beetle Warrior like crazy. The attack force of the tentacles became more and more powerful, and each attack was enough to tear a huge crack in the ground.

However, for every attack, three to four black beetle warriors will take the initiative to meet them, catch the attack, and then use this moment of opportunity to let other black beetle warriors attack like vicious man-eating ants.

There were more and more wounds. During the siege, the Black Beetle warrior finally used a weapon other than the colonial mecha, the spiritual blade dagger.

The metal blade of the Spirit Blade Dagger is twenty centimeters long. It is made of Titan alloy and is engraved with inscriptions to control the release of psychic energy. When the Spirit Blade explodes, the blade length can reach fifty centimeters. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a machete.

When the spirit blade dagger came out, the battle entered an accelerated stage. The spirit blade cut through the solid skin of the fallen man, and a gap deep enough to the bone appeared immediately.

Blood splashed out, and what was even more frightening was that the fluctuation of spiritual energy interfered with the flow of spiritual energy in the wound. Although this interference was not an intentional design, it was just a weak and short-lived side effect.

But for the Tentacle Fallen, such a wound is the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

The tentacles were cut off by the spirit blade dagger, the chest was blasted away by the insect hand cannon, and wounds enough to cut into the bones were left on the hands, feet, and back.

The Tentacled Fallen fell to the ground with a crash, and was quickly met by the soldiers of the search team who had been waiting for a long time, tied up with chains, and then locked in a cage.

On the other side of the factory, rumbling sounds continued, and soon it gradually fell into calm.

Four improved psychic exoskeleton mechas stepped on the fallen man whose arms were shaped like bone scythes.

One of the originally sharp bone scythe arms was now broken. The huge body of the fallen was covered with blood holes blasted by the shoulder cannon. The charred flesh was bleeding from time to time, and the fleshy sprouts were struggling to wriggle.

The shoulder cannon is not the insect hand cannon among the colonial equipment. The output power is stronger. Even the body of a third-level fallen fallen will still be destroyed by the cannon after being attacked many times.

The last third-level fallen person with multiple heads, Zhu Xiong had already cut off his hands and feet with a psychic blade shield and turned into a human pig.

At this time, Zhu Xiong was also wearing a black beetle armor, and two third-order mineral crystal fruits on his back were emitting light.

He was also part of the test, but at this time, there were many unexpected tiny cracks on his black beetle breeding suit, and there was no sign of recovery.

"Lock them all up, add enough paralyzing toxin, and then send them to the research center."

Zhu Xiong took off the mask of the black beetle's reproductive suit and strode to Gao Weiming's side.

"Brother Gao, the two third-level mineral crystal fruits plus my psychic burst have exceeded the upper limit of this mecha. If the battle lasts longer, it may die and collapse. High-level mechas may need further development. upgrade."

Zhu Xiong talked about his experience, and Gao Weiming nodded: "Yes, I noticed that judging from the current amplification effect, the Black Beetle is suitable for first- and second-level warriors, third-level contractors, that is, some of our deputy commanders and Commanders need higher-level colonial armor."

He thought for a while and explained in more detail: "First-order warriors are suitable for normal black beetle breeding equipment. Even if the overclocking mode is added, the energy core embedding should reach the level of second-order single core at most. Otherwise, their bodies will be overloaded On the contrary, I can’t bear it.”

"Isn't it enough to simplify it into the normal mode of bluestone?"

Zhu Xiong, a reckless man, interrupted Gao Mingwei's words, his face trembled, and he grinned: "The fastest way is to equip the troops, and for first-order contractors, wouldn't it be better to directly summon the apostles to fight? Does it have to be a physical fight?”

Gao Mingwei was stunned for a moment, and Zhu Xiong continued to explain to him: "The battle at the first level is not as dangerous as the higher level. Long-range weapons such as psychic rifles and hand cannons are more useful in dealing with them than in direct combat, so the colonial armor is just an extra layer of protection." , to increase the overall strength, rather than to maximize effectiveness in fighting. All members are equipped and highly applicable, which is the key point."

Gao Mingwei thoughtfully said: "High-level battles are more dangerous, and individual strength requirements are higher. Contractors themselves are a powerful force, and there are many who will end up personally. They are also worried about being plotted during the battle, so the stronger the effect, the better?"

"Yes, that's what it means. Even if you ask Lao Yan, an 'expert', he will say the same thing. Who the hell gives recruits a full set of Barretts and Gatlings? The armed forces don't have such lavish ones."

Gao Mingwei understood and quickly said: "I will change it when I get back. This is a simple simplification. We will be able to establish a breeding nest soon."

As the two talked, the entire factory was quickly searched.

This is an old factory building. There weren't many people there before the end of the world, but now they're all dead.

If the Fallen hadn't been forced too hastily by the Tree Territory troops, they might not have hid here.

Other researchers compiled more detailed battle data and handed it over to the two of them.

Of the thirty members of the insect beetle team, two were seriously injured and thirteen were slightly injured. Four were completely damaged by the black beetle breeding suit, and seven were injured, but they can slowly recover on their own.

The energy consumption is the largest. 4 third-level mineral crystal fruits are completely consumed. There are many cases where the incompletely consumed mineral crystal fruits consume half of the energy.

If fully converted, it would be equivalent to using about 7 or 8 third-level mineral crystal fruits.

The four psionic exoskeleton mechas are similar, but the energy consumption is slightly lower, about 5.

The reason why the consumption is lower is not because of their low output, but because the hard Titan alloy is integrated into the overall structure of the mecha.

Although it is not a complete replacement, it is enough to protect them from more damage.

There is no doubt that this is a battle fought with resources.

More than a dozen third-level mineral crystal fruits were exchanged for the defeat of two third-level superior ones.

Just looking at the third-level resources, it is difficult to estimate whether it is a profit or a loss.

But judging from the life-and-death battle, this is a hugely profitable deal.

There are no dead people in the tree realm.

The second level has achieved the third level superiority, which is equivalent to adding multiple third level combat capabilities to the tree domain out of thin air.

Although there are some restrictions required to fully exert the third-level combat power, the meaning is completely different.

Moreover, in a sense, the mineral crystal fruit is a renewable resource as long as the Nine Snake Mother Tree is there.

After packing everything, three modified heavy trucks loaded with the drugged fallen man quickly rushed to Hengchuan City.

The convoy gradually approached Hengchuan City, about one kilometer away from Hengchuan City. The fog began to gradually fade, and the vehicles gradually drove in, and a towering stone tower came into view.

The stone tower is about ten meters high and one meter wide. It is made of light yellow rocks. On the top of it, there is a crystal of an ancient tree the size of a human head.

The fog was dispersed by the crystals of ancient trees. At a glance, there would be such a stone tower every one or two hundred meters on both sides of the road, on the slopes, in the wilderness.

The bright lighthouses, shaped like stars, confront each other with the quilt-like fog in the sky, just like a wonder in the world.

This is the peripheral fog-free zone that the leaders of the infrastructure team have successively established. It is also the controllable peripheral sphere of influence that Shuyu needs to gradually determine and expand more activity areas.

The Nine Snake Mother Tree had previously upgraded the Black Rock Tree Monster to LV8, with an activity range of two hundred kilometers and a population of eight thousand, which provided a solid foundation for the rapid advancement of infrastructure.

During the more than half a month that Su Han went to the Wushan base, 500 of the 8,000 black rock tree monsters were always designated as contract units to provide tree area residents with sufficient contribution value who were interested in joining the infrastructure team.

The infrastructure team expanded at an extremely fast speed and successively established branches in Nanfang City, Huiyuan City, and the now captured Hengchuan City.

The expansion of the population, coupled with the remaining more than 7,000 black rock tree monsters scattered in various cities, greatly improved the efficiency of infrastructure. Therefore, in addition to towering city walls, lighthouses gradually came into being.

Not long after Hengchuan City was captured, although the construction of the lighthouse was completed and the city wall was mostly repaired, the wasteland illuminated on the periphery was not further reclaimed at this time.

However, around Nanfang City and Huiyuan City, farmland has not only been reclaimed, but also a network of waterways such as reservoirs and canals has been completely covered. The second city wall has begun to be slowly built. Although it is not as tall as the city wall, it can effectively isolate the outside world. Monster invasion.

Zhu Xiong had just returned to Huiyuan City, and as soon as he got off the bus, he heard the messenger rushing towards him.

"Commander Zhu, the lord has returned from the Wushan base. He summoned the commanders to go back and stand by. Miss Bai also sent a message asking Researcher Gao to go back immediately."

Zhu Xiong's eyes lit up and he immediately said, "You're back? I'll be there right away."

He asked Zhao Yimin to be responsible for the follow-up and stable work of Hengchuan City, and then rushed to the location of the insect crack without stopping, and immediately returned to Southern City.

——

"Hengchuan City has been completely captured. Gan Xinglei, Ge Ming and Chen Limin are developing Shanjiang City. However, this time because you are temporarily unavailable, you cannot build an insect nest on the spot. You need to build tunnels first, and then mobilize insect swarms from various locations. Exploitation, although the efficiency is slightly slower, also balances the number of insect swarms everywhere."

Su Han was sitting in the conference room. Not long after he came back, he sealed up ten nuclear bombs and had the vines of the Nine Snake Mother Tree wrap around them and hide them underground.

After doing all this, Bai Qilan came over to tell him about the recent situation in the tree domain.

Although it is only half a month, for post-apocalyptic reconstruction, half a month is already a very long period of time.

Within half a month, Hengchuan City was successfully developed by Chen Limin and the vanguard of the Insect Warriors. Then, as the tunnel was established, search teams, psychic exoskeleton mechas, and infrastructure teams were stationed one after another, and the recovery was successfully completed point by point.

The air cavalry, some insect warriors, and patrol teams began to cooperate with each other, using the advantages of land and air to expand the exploration area and discover more survivors from surrounding towns and villages.

In a sense, the lighthouse is not only for expanding the activity area, but also a lighthouse in a substantial sense.

Counting the more than 90,000 survivors gathered in the urban area of ​​Hengchuan City, many survivors from various towns and villages were discovered by the Shuyu troops one after another, and then rescued to the three main urban areas.

These towns and villages also include the areas around Southern City. Even the areas around Southern City have been explored the most and have the highest proportion of survivors discovered.

So far, the population of the three cities in Shuyu has reached more than 400,000, and the foundation has gradually become stronger.

"The Tree Territory troops currently need to expand and integrate. Search teams, patrol teams, reserves, and air cavalry all require a large number of manpower. There are also city defense troops, infrastructure teams, etc. Your opinion is needed for expansion training and force integration."

The more people we have, the more power we can provide, but the prerequisite is that there can be no chaos.

Su Han pondered for a while, who would have thought that so many things would suddenly happen after just half a month after leaving home.

Of course he knew that accumulating strength could snowball, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

"What's the initial idea?"

"Formally establish the Shuyu Army, and then divide it into three units: development, city defense, and reserve, and then expand the number of troops. The Insect Soldier Regiment and the Air Cavalry Regiment will be controlled by you in separate sequences. The goal of integration is to have at least 20,000 troops in each of the three troops. , the Insect Soldier Regiment and the Air Cavalry Regiment are controlled at around 5,000 and are at your disposal. The infrastructure team is divided into three parts according to the city, with 2,000 people in each division.”
