Chapter 293: Survivors in the wormhole

However, this was also the reason for his happiness.

A Zerg with intelligence would no longer be fearless.

Their retreat showed that these Zerg had begun to fear death.

After these few Sixteen Types flew up again, the Zerg they had encountered earlier had disappeared.

Liang Yu naturally wouldn’t let it go at that; the Satellite in the sky had already locked onto the location near the Sixteen Type. This time, he planned to find that Queen Bug and eliminate it to prevent future trouble.

Liang Yu controlled the Sixteen Type to move towards one of the passages the Zerg had retreated through, leaving one Sixteen Type to guard the original spot.

Along the passage, Liang Yu saw dense piles of Zerg corpses and some dismembered limbs of Survivors scattered around the passage.

Their weapons were still clutched tightly in their severed limbs.

It was clear that these Survivors, who had somehow ended up here, had engaged in a fierce battle with the Zerg in this passage.

After continuing forward for a short distance, Liang Yu surprisingly discovered a Survivor who had miraculously survived up ahead.

This made a big question mark appear in Liang Yu’s mind again.

Why would the Zerg leave anyone alive?

There was only one path here, with no cover in front or behind. How did this woman escape?

It undoubtedly piqued Liang Yu’s curiosity, so he controlled the Sixteen Type to approach the woman.

The woman also noticed the Sixteen Type approaching.

But she didn’t show any joyful expression; instead, she hugged her legs in fear, curling up in a corner.

The woman’s reaction was clearly problematic.

So, after the Sixteen Type approached, Liang Yu’s voice came through.

“Hello.”

“Can you tell me what happened here?”

After the woman heard Liang Yu’s words, her mind began to recall what had happened at the time. Immediately, Liang Yu noticed the woman trembling all over, clearly recalling some terrifying encounter.

It was also at this moment that Liang Yu noticed her bulging abdomen.

Apparently, this woman was pregnant, and judging by the size of her abdomen, she should be seven to eight months pregnant, and she should be able to give birth in a while.

However, Liang Yu quickly realized something was wrong.

Seven to eight months of pregnancy meant that the woman was already pregnant during the cold wave, and she had managed to preserve the fetus in her womb for such a long time until now.

One must know that Liang Yu had also passed through many cities and Towns and had encountered many Survivors. Although they were all hostile towards him, not a single one was pregnant.

To put it bluntly, now, unless they were darlings of high-ranking officials in large forces or organizations, or people in official shelters, it would be impossible to carry a fetus without miscarrying.

After all, they needed to constantly work hard every day for food and struggle with others for a little bit of supplies.

This was the cruel reality; ordinary people were already doing their best just to survive, so how could they have the conditions to keep a fetus in their womb?

In this way, Liang Yu instead felt that the woman’s abdomen was more suspicious.

And as his thoughts wandered, he recalled plots from certain movies where some insects would use human living bodies as breeding grounds.

So Liang Yu had the Sixteen Type begin scanning the woman’s body. As the light swept over the woman’s body, a human organ diagram appeared before Liang Yu.

Liang Yu focused on the woman’s abdomen, and the result completely matched his guess: the reason the bugs let the woman live was that her abdomen had already been implanted with insect eggs.

Furthermore, the insect eggs in the woman’s abdomen had basically developed into shape, and it wouldn’t be long before they would burst out of her body.

In short, the woman in front of him was already doomed. Liang Yu played the good guy again and helped the woman in front of him find release.

To prevent the fully developed insect eggs in the woman’s abdomen from crawling out of her body, he had the Sixteen Type emit an energy beam to ignite the woman’s corpse, which was also a way of sending her off.

As the Sixteen Type continued to penetrate deeper, Liang Yu discovered signs of life ahead, which immediately made Liang Yu perk up.

As he approached this area, Liang Yu didn’t know why, but he could feel, even from a distance, that the surrounding air seemed to become viscous.

Liang Yu became alert and controlled the Sixteen Type to slowly move deeper into the area.

There, a huge cocoon-like object was particularly conspicuous, standing in the center and emitting a faint green light.

Countless large and small insect eggs surrounded the giant cocoon, and in a corner nearby, many Survivors were huddled together.

It goes without saying that these Survivors, to have survived, must have had insect eggs implanted in them, and like the Survivor Liang Yu encountered, these people had completely lost hope of living.

They just huddled in the corner, with no intention of escaping at all.

Or perhaps they had already tried to escape, but constant failures had led them to this state.

Suddenly, at this moment, the cocoon-like object trembled violently, and a crack slowly opened, emitting an eerie light from the opening.

It seemed that whatever was inside the giant cocoon was ready to break out.

He didn’t know if it was really that coincidental, or if the giant cocoon felt threatened after the Sixteen Type arrived here, which caused it to break out prematurely.

But how could Liang Yu just stand by and watch the other party emerge from the giant cocoon before attacking it?

Wouldn’t that be as foolish as those anime characters who insist on waiting for others to finish transforming before fighting them?

Liang Yu had no such spirit of fair combat; his consistent principle was to strike while the iron was hot and take advantage of an enemy’s weakness. How could he miss such a good opportunity?

These Sixteen Types immediately locked onto the giant cocoon in front of them, continuously firing beams of light that bombarded the giant cocoon one after another.

The explosion engulfed the already cracked giant cocoon, revealing the true form of what was inside.

A massive, humanoid Zerg emerged from it. Its body was covered with strange patterns, and its eyes glowed with an eerie light.

After emerging from the cocoon, this Humanoid Bug spread the wings on its back and extended its four-fingered claws, turning them around twice in front of its eyes, as if getting used to controlling its body.

Liang Yu was filled with surprise the first time he saw this Humanoid Bug, not expecting that a Humanoid Bug would emerge so quickly.

However, now was not the time for emotion or surprise. The other party clearly looked down on him, or rather, looked down on his Sixteen Type.

Liang Yu directly adjusted the Sixteen Type’s output power to maximum, just to see if this strike could kill the opponent. If one strike couldn’t kill it, then these few Sixteen Types would have to self-destruct.

At the same time, the Satellite in the sky also locked onto this location. The nine Satellites: Yushui, Guyu, Bailu, Hanlu, Shuangjiang, Xiaoxue, Daxue, Jingzhe, and Mangzhong, had already begun charging.
