The End of the Paleozoic Era Chapter 2149: Transport Worms
"Look...that's it!"
It's a dark... jungle-like place.
Hundreds of Ershi people are moving in the jungle.
They were looking for a safe place, and also to... see what they had heard about.
That is... the huge monster in front of them.
It looks like a giant beetle, with a length of more than 60 meters and a height of more than 30 meters.
This is the type of soldier that the Inca Zerg uses to transport troops, and this one is one of the species that got lost here. It has now pushed down all the dead trees around here and cleared out a clearing in the forest.
The Ershi people... were watching it from the surrounding bushes.
"How did it fly into the void?" the deputy captain asked Er Shimin who had just said this in confusion.
"I just saw it flying down from above..." the Ershimin said, "Because it was attacked."
"Attack? Could it be that they are attacking us..."
"Pah—"
When the deputy captain said this, a bright light suddenly appeared in the sky, and countless flashing objects fell from the sky... and hit the side of the giant insect.
"Boom boom—" A roaring light followed, echoing continuously on the ground. The crew members in the jungle quickly lay down on the ground... and the transport bugs at the bombing center had already flown high into the sky.
It flew directly towards the targets that were dropping explosive bombs in the air... They were a group of things that looked like small fighter planes, only more than ten meters long, and dozens of them were flying around in the sky.
After seeing the transport bug flying up, they also gathered towards it, emitting countless bullets from their metal wings...
From this point of view, their fighting style is very similar to that of the Ershi people.
The barrage of bullets hit the outer shell of the transport bug, creating bright sparks, but it did not stop the bug's high-speed flight...it slammed into the nearest aircraft.
A moment later, the aircraft broke into pieces, and the transport bug itself... suffered almost no damage.
Seeing this, the surrounding aircraft directed even more intense firepower at it. After resisting another round of attacks, the transport worm unfolded its carapace.
Under the elytra spread out from its carapace, there were dense numbers of... small insects. They also looked like beetles, and the moment they appeared, they suddenly flew into the air and crashed into every aircraft around them.
"Boom boom—" After a burst of light, all the aircrafts turned into pieces and fell down.
The giant insect continued to fly towards the void with no intention of stopping.
"this……"
Most of the Ershi people below were surprised when they saw this scene, but some remained calm, such as...
Deputy Captain.
Its attention quickly shifted from the flying beetle to a nearby... aircraft.
This aircraft was also one of the ones that attacked the beetle just now, and it was also hit by the "missile" fired by the beetle.
But it did not break into pieces. It seemed to be only slightly injured, but still maintained a certain flying ability. It should be able to land smoothly... somewhere nearby.
"Hurry! Let's go over there!" Seeing this, the deputy captain immediately ran towards the landing direction of the aircraft, and the Ershi people nearby immediately followed.
“There it is!”
They soon arrived at the target landing location, and saw the aircraft landed in a small open space in the jungle... The cockpit of the aircraft had been opened, and several small creatures crawled out from it. They seemed to want to crawl to the back of the aircraft to check the damaged parts.
These creatures look very strange, they look a lot like... pillows.
Yes, they are the pillows that the Ershi people use to sleep. The way they move is almost like the pillows moving.
At the same time, their skin seems to have a strong...adhesiveness, which allows them to stick to the hull of the aircraft and move.
Although the deputy captain was a little dazed by the sight of these strange creatures, he still quickly gave orders.
"Quick! Catch them!"
Following the deputy captain's shout, a group of Ershi people immediately rushed forward.
The group of small creatures were frightened when they saw this. They saw that their backs... the side facing the Ershi people was cracked, and some spherical objects were shot out from it.
The effect of these spherical objects was very similar to the "grenades" of the Ershi people. They fell at the feet and beside the Ershi people and exploded one after another. The first group of Ershi people who ran over were instantly blown to the ground, but this group of Ershi people quickly got up.
It seems that grenades can't do any damage to their armor.
The group of pillows became a little frightened and they quickly crawled into the cockpit, but an Ershi man had already come to their side.
"Bang!" Ershimin punched a pillow fiercely, and the feeling of the punch... seemed to be almost the same as punching a real pillow.
The part of the pillow that was hit was dented and then rolled off the aircraft's shell and onto the ground.
"Hey! Why are you hitting it? There might be other bombs in its body!"
The other Ershi people were not as ferocious as the first one who ran over. They directly pulled the pillow off the hull of the aircraft.
In fact, the power of the explosion just now was not very strong, and the Ershi people were not very afraid, but they were still a little worried that these creatures would detonate all the explosives in their bodies and explode, so they quickly took out the ropes originally used for climbing and tied these pillows together, so that if they exploded, they would also explode themselves.
Although this group of pillows didn't seem to have any intention of self-destructing, they just kept twisting and struggling there.
When the deputy captain saw that the problem had been solved, he quickly walked up and said, "Very good, check this aircraft, it should still be able to fly."
"yes!"
Several Ershi people climbed to the cockpit to try to check.
The shape of the aircraft is almost the same as the fighter planes commonly used by the Ershi people, except that the cockpit... is very small.
After all, these pillows are only about one meter in size.
"Deputy Captain, this fighter is very similar to the V-07 fighter we often use...even the operating panel inside is the same...just one size smaller."
"Is it that magical?" the deputy captain asked, "Then is there a way to start it?"
"One can barely fit in the cockpit, but I'm not sure if it operates in exactly the same way, that would require more investigation."
"Then let's investigate." The vice captain said, "We must find a way to return to the spiral... or the space station."
"Deputy Captain." At this time, another Ershimin looked at the group of pillows and said, "These creatures... I remember they should be..."
"Do you know them?"
"It seems like an experiment from a long time ago."
