Chapter 177 Is This a Plague?

This is a group of strange creatures.

The reaper found this group of creatures in the sea more than 50 kilometers away. Just as Lin thought, this group of creatures is quite huge...

This kind of creature is purple. Under the sun, they cover the sky like purple dark clouds, moving mightily in the sea, and their flying sound can be heard clearly in the surrounding sea area with a radius of more than ten kilometers.

Few creatures grow this strange color, which is generally more conspicuous and not conducive to hunting, but it probably doesn't matter to this sweeping creature.

But the amazing thing is that they are not a division of labor species, at least for now, Lin only sees one form.

In order to confirm in more detail, Lin asked the reaper to fly close to the group of creatures, stopped at a distance of about one kilometer, and observed them carefully.

These creatures are about 30 centimeters long, larger than the largest land-living arthropods that Lin has seen after the oxygen has been reduced, and their body shapes are somewhat similar to those of crickets. There is a name in Lin's mind. It: 'locust'.

If the whole group of creatures is called 'Wandering Plague', then it might be better to call a single unit 'Plague Locust'.

They fly over the sea with a pair of long and narrow wings, with curved blade-shaped mandibles in their mouths, and without solid armor on their bodies, they look relatively soft, but in fact, crickets and other creatures are relatively soft.

They fly in the air more than 50 meters to 100 meters from the sea surface, except for the large number of them covering the sky like a storm, Lin really doesn't think there is anything special about them.

Can this kind of creature be called the 'Wandering Plague'? But it might be Lin who made a mistake. This is probably another group of arthropods flying over the sea, rather than a creature with terrible destructive ability that scares away all creatures on the island.

But the direction they were heading was indeed Lin's island. And there are such a large number of creatures... Lin estimates that their number may be around one million, and they need a huge amount of food to maintain.

However, the ocean can also provide them with a lot of food, and they don't have to plunder islands, although they don't look like creatures that can live in the sea.

In short, it is necessary to follow up and observe.

Lin is also making preparations on the island. If the group of 'plagues' approach the island, the direction of landing will happen to be the front beach. Lin will fill the beach with forts to meet the group of creatures.

If they are really 'wandering plague'.

If there is really only one of these creatures. Lin reckons that almost everything can be solved with the turret, but Lin will definitely not underestimate the enemy, so in addition to the turret, the bomber and Behemoth are also ready to fight.

The reason for going to war with them is quite simple, they destroy everything, and Lin destroys them.

The Reapers are currently tracking and observing them. It takes about 3600 seconds for this group of 'Wandering Plague' to fly at a speed of about 30 kilometers. This is obviously not flying at full speed, and occasionally it will fly slower, which gives Lin time to prepare.

A large number of forts were placed on the white sandy beach, and the sand and stones on the beach could be used as their ammunition through integration. The pioneers collected a lot of nutrients in the sea, which provided sufficient energy for these forts.

Now is the season of plankton. Pioneers don't need to swallow the fountains of hydrothermal springs to get enough nutrients.

At the same time, the brainworm said that it wanted to try to command the battle. It seemed that because it hadn't commanded for a long time, it felt a strange feeling in the brain.

There is an area in the head worm's brain that is dedicated to commanding arms, and it is true that if it is not used for a long time, problems may arise. So Lin also thinks that it should be directed.

Lin planned to let the head worm command the turret. It should be easy to watch the displayer command in Behemoth. Lin added some special structures to the turrets, so that they would respond to the brainworm's vocabulary.

After setting up the fort, the next step is to wait for the arrival of the 'plague'...

Although it is said that their speed should come quickly, they always slow down and move. When the reapers followed and observed them, Lin became more and more suspicious of whether they were 'wandering plagues'. At this time, Lin's reapers found There is a small island in the sea below, and this small island is exactly the place they will pass through.

The small island is only tens of meters in diameter, and there is nothing on it except gravel, but there is an 'Echo Egg' on it, making the sound of 'Gada' non-stop.

And when the 'Wandering Plague' passed through the island, their huge group suddenly seemed to have encountered a wall of air and split into two halves. They seemed to be cut by the island and divided into two groups. Bypassing the island, and then flying over the island, the two groups joined together again...

This is really amazing.

Next, they encountered a few islands with eggs. The floating plague was just like before. They would fly around the islands, and they would not even approach the sky above the islands.

Sure enough, the sound lizards in the jungle did use the sound of 'Gada' to try to avoid the wandering plague from approaching the island, but its sound was too small, and it was very different from the common pronunciation of eggs, so it probably had no effect on driving them away.

However, if Lin gets a few Echo Eggs back, maybe they can keep them from approaching the island, but now the time is obviously insufficient, and the number is not known to cover the entire island, so I have to face it.

But before that, Lynn thought it might be time to try... how capable they are.

Lin made the reaper rush towards the target direction suddenly, and the fastest reaper quickly flew in front of the huge group of creatures.

When the 'Wandering Plague' saw the appearance of the Reapers, they suddenly accelerated and flapped their wings to rush towards the Reapers, while the Reapers accelerated to meet them head-on, rushing into the army of locusts...

Lin felt that the difference in combat power between the two sides was very rewarding.

The Reaper's hardened wings reflected dazzling brilliance under the sun. In just one second, it cut dozens of locusts into two pieces, and their shattered bodies drifted down along with blood and internal organs.

The combined explosives attached to the wings of the Reaper erupted violently, and the Reaper quickly harvested their lives from the swarm of locusts, and the limbs and remains of the locusts fell into the sea like rain...

Although the locusts rushed forward to attack frantically, they were like raindrops hitting the rocks, smashing themselves to pieces.

Is the legendary plague so vulnerable? Lin was thinking, if there were not too many of them, it is estimated that a reaper could completely 'harvest' them. (to be continued...)
