Chapter 372: Zerg Nest

Chapter 371: Zerg Nest

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

Wang Zheng smiled. “Masasi said it correctly. Let’s do this. Raston and I will walk in front, while Zhang Shan and Zhang Runan protect the flanks. Meng Tian, you’re the only one capable of scouting. Other than reconnaissance, pay attention to the environment. In particular, be careful of the traces of acid emitted by the Zerg. Once you encounter it, we have to take a detour. Luo Fei, Lie Guang, and Taros, you three stay at the back and pay attention to the surroundings. Do not be careless just because we have already walked past. If we encounter any Zerg and are unable to escape, I will first go to block them, and will Raston support me. Zhang Shan, you and Zhang Runan protect the flanks, but do not engage. Your responsibility is to stabilize the formation. Masasi, Lear, and Lie Xin, you are responsible for the offense. Achilles will be in reserve, responsible for any emergency situations.

The crowd nodded and was apparently very satisfied. Achilles could be relied on as his strength and insight were the best, and he was clearly fit for this position.

Zhang Shan grinned. Wang Zheng was indeed a good guy. Everybody knew that in this situation, defense would be dangerous, while offense would be rather comfortable. Achilles’ position should’ve been given to Wang Zheng, but since Wang Zheng had already said so, he could only accept it.

After completing their starting preparations and familiarizing themselves according to the arrangement of Wang Zheng, the Solar System team entered the dark forest.

At this moment, in the orbit of the A9 planet, there was a huge mothership that was orbiting around it.

In the mothership’s main control room, the area above the big screen was showing the area map centered on the A9 planet base. At the outermost edge, 128 light spots were gently and steadily shining.

The IG Arbitration Commission were all paying attention to the status of these spots.

“Atlantis’ team has not yet moved and is still resting in the landing area.”

“Aslan’s team has already broken through the peripheral Zerg area and have begun to enter the danger zone.”

128 staff members reported the situation of each team at any given time. In addition, there were 12 arbitrators who dealt with the relevant intelligence.

“Although it shouldn’t happen yet, prepare the fighter planes for the rescue…”

“The Arbiter team is approaching the Desol Star Alliance. The two teams are three kilometers apart, and we have analyzed and judged that the Arbiter team already knows the position of the Desol Star Alliance,” the staff responsible for the movement of the Arbiter team suddenly called out.

“The old habit of the Arbiter Empire has once again surfaced here. They destroy their opponents in advance and grab all the resources at the same time. However, this time, the Desol Star Alliance members all have Ability X users with considerable strength. Do they still want a fight? Switch over to that screen.”

Whoosh… the screen that was a part of the big screen replaced the original global map.

In the image, it was clear that the Arbiter team had formed a formation and surrounded the team of the Desol Star Alliance, who knew nothing about it.

In the image, the Desol Star Alliance team was careful, but their reconnaissance defensive circle was only 200 meters wide. In their view, as all their members were Ability X users, 200 meters was enough distance for them to respond sufficiently.

However, what they were defending against was only the Zerg.

They did not include other humans in the enemy category.

The Arbiters launched an assault. Two figures rushed out of their team like two arrows toward the Desol Star Alliance.

“Only two people moved?”

“Aren’t they too arrogant? The Desol Star Alliance is ambitious this time, and the 12 players are all good Ability X users. Two on 12?”

In the mothership’s main control room, many staff members frowned. While the Arbiters were strong, they should only be strong within reason. In the face of the elites with the 12 Ability X users, only two people were dispatched. This was not strength, but arrogance. In IG, arrogance would lead to death.

In the images shown on the screens, the fighting began rapidly. The Desol Star Alliance got into defensive positions immediately after sensing someone entering the 200-meter defensive circle. It could be seen on the screen that the Desol Star Alliance team was talking to the Arbiter team.

“Our remote fighter has received a regional audio file. Should we play it?”

“Play.”

After a series of static noises, a voice could finally be heard.

“…??????,????????…”

“…We are not the enemy, this can all be avoided…..”

The Desol Star Alliance team did not intend to start fighting immediately.

“Damn, prepare the laser weapons…”

“However, once we start firing, it will be the end!”

“Stop hesitating! The bloody Arbiters are like mad dogs. If we let them come close, it won’t be the end, it will be our end! Fire!”

Boom…

At this moment, the screen went black.

“What happened?!”

“A change in the magnetic field, signal interference. We expect to recover satellite signals after ten seconds.”

Ten, nine…… three, two, one… Bzzt, the screen went up again, but with a significant difference. It could clearly be seen that the captain of the Desol Star Alliance had activated his energy shield.

Just over a minute, and the whole team was comprised of Ability X users. The powerful Desol Star Alliance team was actually beaten by two Arbiter players. The two Arbiters had even snatched the bracelet of the Desol Star Alliance team’s captain!

This was the real objective of the Arbiters. In the event of danger, they could use the bracelet of their opponents to get another chance at rescue…. This was indeed a malicious plot, but the reactions of the Desol Star Alliance team was a beat too slow. However, they could not be blamed. The captain was the first to be struck, and the others were knocked down to the ground, their injuries rather severe.

The control room of the entire mothership was silent. This year’s Arbiter team was even more aggressive, more powerful, and more terrifying than ever.

“Send out the fighter planes, and include the Desol Star Alliance team in the list of the eliminated teams.”

The adjudication team made a decision.

The staff member responsible for Arbiter’s information raised his hand and said, “Should we restore the video of the battle…”

“It’s not necessary. The result has been revealed. Remember, we are only responsible for a fair decision. All data must be kept confidential. If any news spreads, everyone, including me, will be implicated. There must not be any rumors.” The cold eyes of the arbitration team’s leader swept over everyone.

The brutal competition continued in the area. There were also many teams colliding with each other. Most of them did not interfere with each other, each preferring to take separate routes, while there were also a small number of teams that cooperated with each other. The task of this competition was to pass through the Zerg war zone to reach the planet base; it did not forbid any unity between the teams. Of course, the premise of the alliance was trust. An alliance without trust was worse than each team marching alone. Before participating in the IG, everyone had already understood the truth. There were not only teammates, but also enemies here.

Wang Zheng and his entourage were very successful, and did not encounter other teams. Due to their reconnaissance, they also did not encounter a large number of Zerg.

“There are 16 bone spur Zerg 500 meters forward, and a large number of sickle-type Zerglings. There are also traces of corrosion,”

Meng Tian, who was wearing the surveillance helmet, quietly said.

Lie Xin started frowning and asked, “Sickle Zerglings? Is there a nest around?”

The corrosion worm was a type of Zerg that did not have combat potential; they were at bottom of the hierarchy. In human terms, they were the slaves, responsible for the maintenance of the nest in the general location. This meant that the underground was not safe!

“Nothing was found.” Meng Tian continued to scout for a moment and shook her head.

“Should we break through, or take a detour?” Zhang Shan looked at Wang Zhang. They had walked for at least three hours, and other than a single encounter with the Zerg, all of it was basically detouring. Although the speed had not been slow, Zhang Shan was a little fed up with the pace.

Wang Zheng’s eyes flashed for a moment, and he thought of a possibility. “The presence of corrosion worms… everyone, pay attention to any movements under your feet.”

After a moment, Meng Tian nodded. “A slight earthquake was found. It was a tunnel excavation. However, it was not too large. Judging by the size, there are not too many Zerg.”

“Is there a route that we could detour to?”

Wang Zheng nodded. If there wasn’t a need, they did not have to stir up the nest.

“There’s no path in front, we have to first retreat…”

Meng Tian had not even finished speaking when Luo Fei, who was in charge of the rear, shouted out a warning. “Bone spur Zergling found behind us! More than 20 of them are rushing toward us!”

Wang Zheng’s eyes flashed for a moment and he said, “Prepare for battle.”

Zhang Shan clenched his titanium shield. He had a look of excitement on his face due to finally having a chance to show off his talent with this large number of bugs.

All the people present had actual combat experience. This time, the insects responded much faster than the ones they encountered in Demon Island. Wang Zhen could feel the bloody odor in the air, and his feelings had never been wrong.

It did not take long for the shuffling noises to reach them… The Zerg were here!

Rumble…

The roars under the ground continued, and a huge bone spur Zerg broke through the ground and circled the group, shadows flashing throughout the dark forest.

When the bones closed in on them, they could only scatter. At this moment, their formation was temporarily disrupted, and they hurriedly avoided the spears that were flying towards them.

And the shadows in the woods rushed out towards them.

A full barrage of the lasers was deployed, stirring up the dirt on the ground. A gigantic bone spur Zerg had broken through, its body resembling a hedgehog. It let out a loud roar. One by one, countless bugs appeared from within the shadows and began to snipe away at them, firing bone spikes from afar.

“Taros, Luo Fei, you guys deal with the bone spur Zerglings!” While his voice rang out, Wang Zhang rushed towards the giant Zerg and started bombarding its eyes with laser fire. However, those eyes were covered by a transparent film, and the laser weaponry was unable to inflict any damage. Rather, it had enraged the gigantic Zerg, and the rest of the team had been dragged into the melee.

If they rushed in there, it would definitely be even more dangerous. Taros and Luo Fei were conflicted for a moment when Lear burst into a shout. “Move quickly or you will all die!”

Without mentioning Lear, Achilles and the rest had already participated in this type of combat and had already noticed the dangers present. This was not on the same level as Demon Island. These Zerglings’ fighting power was completely in another dimension.

The lasers were not able to damage it, and the giant Zergling was able to dodge the hits. This had indicated that the level of intelligence was rather high. When they were talking, Wang Zheng had already rushed in, and he was falling from the sky, his titanium blade thrusting towards its skull.

However, the bone spur Zergling turned around flexibly, and, with the intent to kill, rushed towards Wang Zheng, causing him to be able to only retreat.
