iyu."Madame Chen, your resentment has been dispelled. Follow the path opened by the high monk and you will be able to reincarnate. I wish you a good rebirth this time."Chen Meiyue, already a transpare...Under the gaze of Ripples' death, several people nodded curtly and immediately pressed their muzzles down, resolutely refraining from any action that might give Ripples cause for misunderstanding.
Ripple nodded in satisfaction, directly and effortlessly pulling open the heavy steel plate door with one hand. Wancheng was the second to rush out, followed by two male research personnel, then two female researchers, and bringing up the rear were a few of their male colleagues who could barely be considered strong.
Looking at the limbs scattered on the ground and the stench in the air, Ripple frowned, stomping her feet and surging forward. She leaped five meters, landing a third of the way down the passage. At this moment, the black melters also discovered that their long-awaited food had finally appeared. They immediately fluttered their wings excitedly to spread the message and then surged back into the passage.
"Wancheng, activate the sonic weapon and disrupt the communication between the Black Melting Worms. Don't let them call for more of their kind."
As the ripples spoke, the Lei Yao sword in his hand moved with a speed that seemed both slow and fast. The Lei Yao sword slashed out a purple light, instantly shattering the black melting worms that surged over. Immediately following was the deadly silk, silently winding around the necks of the black melting worms that hadn't yet succeeded in merging. A flash of white light, and the worm heads fell away.
Wan Cheng was holding the sonic weapon. His colleagues behind him had unzipped their backpacks, pulled out the signal receiver, opened the sonic weapon's switch, adjusted the frequency band, and pressed the start button.
"It has been started."
“Follow me!”
Ripple's eyes narrowed, she could clearly feel the number of Black Melting Insects charging at her had decreased. Now, the ones coming were attracted by the smell of food, so she had to speed up.
Three kilometers away from the underground research institute, Carter's team and several other task forces were hiding within their own energy shields.
Outside, there were countless black ooze bugs, mostly with eight legs. They moved incredibly fast, flashing and disappearing across the light curtain, constantly impacting it. Their saliva dripped onto the shield, making William want to swear.
"Captain, we should withdraw!"
"Wait a little longer, do you think those bugs will stop chasing us if we leave now They're faster than us! Are you sure"
Carter said coldly.
William's already disreputable face grew even uglier after hearing this.
"Then we can't just wait here to die! If the shield gets broken and Ripple hasn't come back with weapons, we're just as good as dead!"
"So, do you want to die now, or wait and see if there's a chance of survival"
Carter raised an eyebrow.
William swallowed his words in the end. After all, it was a death sentence either way, and he wanted to delay his demise for as long as possible.
"Look, these Gloom Worms are dissolving!"
Someone suddenly spoke up.
His words also caught Carter and William's attention. The two looked up at the black swarm of Meltdrakes sprawled on the light curtain, and as their comrade had said, they were indeed disintegrating.
It can be seen that they were very reluctant, but still couldn't stop the understanding of the body's movements. In just five minutes, these bugs all returned to their initial state.
Miss Ripple is here! Get ready to fight!
Carter immediately stood up, it was obvious that this was the effect achieved only after the sonic weapon mentioned in Wanli's words was activated.
"I can't wait any longer!"
William shouldered his Gatling gun with a grin of excitement.
What happened here also happened in several other groups.
"Prepare for battle."
Almost all squads issued the same command, after all, these were all points, and they were key to their passing.
...Meanwhile, Wan Cheng and the others' ripples did not immediately join the ranks of those purging the Black Fusion Worms. The Black Fusion Worms were practically harmless now. She had expended a lot of energy battling her way out, and needed a break. There was still a tough fight ahead.
Wànchéng and his six companions were utterly disheveled at this point. Their clothes were stained with black blood, and their faces had taken on a sickly pallor. They swore they had poured every ounce of their strength into keeping up with the woman ahead. She moved with unstoppable momentum, leaving only the occasional stray level-one Black Fusion Worm for them to deal with.
At this time, all six of them got into a closed off-road vehicle, apparently reserved especially for them. After sitting down, they realized their hands and feet were shaking, whether from fear or overexertion.
"I feel like the sandwich I just ate is already digested!"
The male colleague behind her licked his lips and said to Wancheng.
A deafening explosion echoed from afar, followed by the staccato bursts of machine gun fire. Inside the vehicle, they could all see the churning swarm of black meld worms writhing in the distance, like flowing ink, occasionally coalescing and then dispersing to avoid the attacks from below.
"Wancheng, set the sound wave weapon to maximum power. I'm driving to meet up with the team, you guys better buckle up."
"Okay!"
Wancheng, having heard Ripples' words, had already placed his backpack on his lap and, at the fastest speed possible, expanded the radiation range of his sonic weapon and boosted its power to the maximum. After doing so, he quickly fastened his safety belt.
As ripples in the rearview mirror showed everyone was ready, he slammed his foot on the gas pedal and sped towards the battle center. The three-kilometer journey took less than five minutes.
With her arrival, the swarm of black melds was disrupted by the sonic weapon, once again disintegrating into the weakest level-zero black melds. Even so, the players in combat did not dare to be careless. The opponent's speed remained very fast, as their smaller size after disintegration made it easier for them to dodge. Both sides were still in a stalemate.
The ripples brought another round of food to the six research elites. Only then did she jump out of the off-road vehicle, waved her hand in the open field to release a tank, and then got in to adjust the angle, beginning to fire in the direction where the bugs were most dense.
The sound of the cannonballs was somewhat muffled, but the impact was accurate and the effect was immediate. The united force of the black melting insects was instantly shattered. Ten rounds were fired in succession before the attack ceased.
The swarm of black-scaled insects found that their opponent was stronger than them. Some were still fighting stubbornly, while others flew away directly. It's clear that there are those who know when to retreat among the insects.
Half an hour later, the gunfire gradually subsided, and the swarm of black melting insects disappeared completely. Then Ripple drove to meet up with her teammates.
With a whoosh, a missile streaked towards the car with ripples in its wake, apparently intending to send Ripples and everyone inside skyward.
Ripples slammed the accelerator and wildly swerved the steering wheel, pulling off a beautiful drift to avoid the missile attack.
"Damn it! You little bastard, you dare to attack our people! Are you tired of living!"
This was William's roar, followed by the incessant "tatatat" of gunfire.
Ripples adjusted her direction and continued forward. A dragon tail stopped the car with a flick, and she swiftly jumped out. Her gun never ceased firing bullets. With a wrist turn, death silk wrapped around those who had attacked her. Since they dared to reach for her, she had to cut them off.te the house and buy a few more acres of land. If the harvest is good next year, we'll be able to send Tiger to school. I don't expect him to pass the civil service exams, just as long as he can read...
