Quick Transmigration: Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character Reaches the Pinnacle of Life
Chapter 217 Relying on the Blessing of Divine Beasts, Bravely Venturing into the Apocalypse 51
Looking out, all you could see were countless black dots. Even from this distance, you could still faintly hear the sound of the Zerg's limbs touching the ground.
"Squeaky..."
Qiu Tong took off the backpack behind her, unzipped it, and reached her hand inside, pretending to be inside the backpack but actually taking out a high-powered telescope from her spatial storage, and holding it up to her eyes.
Through the telescope, it can be seen that the Zerg forces attacking this time are mainly composed of Spider and Scorpion types.
The Zerg occasionally mixed in with other races in the swarm must have followed the migrating humans here and just happened to blend into the Spider and Scorpion armies.
The insectoids mixed in with it all had the appearance of insects: a centipede, a mantis, and a plump, white worm.
It just so happens to overlap with the alien race that fell into China on Earth, as remembered by the original owner.
Among the alien races that invaded Earth from outer space were the very races that Qiu Tong is seeing now.
Other countries were unaware of any insectoid invasion, as China was preoccupied with its own problems at the time and had no time to worry about foreign countries.
Five major ethnic groups invaded China: the Spider Clan, the Scorpion Clan, the Multilegged Clan, the Knife-Hand Clan, and the White Insect Clan. These names were given to them by humans in the later stages of the apocalypse.
Of these five groups, the scorpion group is the most troublesome because they are venomous, and touching their skin will cause poisoning.
And its extremely venomous tail tip—if you get stung by it, you'll be meeting your grandmother in no time; it's truly incredibly poisonous.
Therefore, in the eyes of humans, they are the most difficult Zerg to deal with.
However, the strongest fighters are the swordsmen. They all have sickle-shaped hands that are incredibly sharp and can strike very quickly. Humans who encounter them are usually killed instantly.
Fortunately, this group's reproductive capacity is not as strong as that of the other groups, and their numbers are relatively small.
They are not social animals and prefer to live alone, which makes it easier for humans to come up with ways to deal with them.
If we can't beat them one-on-one, we can attack them as a group. Although it sounds a bit unethical, we've already done well to survive the knife-wielding tribe. What's the point of talking about ethics?
Talking about martial virtue with an insect? Don't be ridiculous. You should be grateful you survived.
The multi-legged race is the largest in size, but its reproductive capacity is not as strong as the other three races, only slightly better than the swordsman race.
Spiders and white worms are different. Spiders can shoot out white silk threads to entangle their prey. The silk threads are very tough and sticky, making it difficult for prey to escape once entangled.
The White Insects can secrete mucus from their bodies or spray it from their mouths to trap their prey.
They use their own secretions to stick to their targets, rendering them unable to move, and then kill them.
When they encounter high-quality prey, they will tie it up and take it back to feed the mother insect.
The quality of prey is determined by how long it survives in their clutches.
The longer the prey spends dealing with them, the better they can determine that the food is of high quality and then offer it to the mother insect as food.
Generally, such humans or mutated animals are quite delicious, so the mother insect instructs her offspring to choose their food based on this standard.
The only thing these five groups have in common is that they are all led by a queen and are offspring hatched from the queen's eggs.
Well, it's not quite right to say they are descendants. Only the mother insect has ever been able to lay eggs. Other insects born from the mother insect do not have the ability to reproduce.
It is difficult for a female insect to reproduce into a new female insect, but when it does produce a new female insect, it means that the female insect has reached the end of its life and no longer has the ability to reproduce.
The new leader is then succeeded by the newly born mother insect.
The Zerg that everyone sees now are all children of the same mother Zerg, but they don't have a concept of family, only a hierarchical relationship.
Besides feeding, the female insect spends her time mating with her strongest offspring to ensure that the offspring she produces are healthy and strong.
Since they have no concept of family, they naturally do not have the concept of incest. The world of the Zerg is different from that of humans, and they cannot be defined by human understanding.
Therefore, the mother insect always refers to her children as her subjects, and it is precisely because they are born from the same mother insect that they are able to share a perspective.
Centipedes can share not only vision but also touch. Anyone or any mutated animal that has harmed their tribe will be resented by them.
Then they will swarm and hunt down their target until the target is dead.
Unless the human or mutated animal is strong enough to evade the pursuit of the centipede group and survive, it will not have the chance to be presented as food to their mother insect.
Qiu Tong learned all these things from Xiao Fu; otherwise, given the disadvantage humans faced against the Zerg in their previous life, how could she have discovered these things?
It could even be said that no one knew about these things in the previous life, not even the original owner of the ghost.
Humanity never knew that the Zerg were born from the Queen Zerg, nor did they know that the Queen Zerg were the big boss behind it all.
As long as the queen worm survives, the Zerg will continue to emerge and can never be eradicated.
However, we can't blame humans for this. The mother insect is simply too cunning. After entering Earth, it hides in the deep mountains and forests to develop in a lowly manner, so it's no wonder that humans can't find its trace.
Human researchers once suspected the existence of a queen insect, but they were unable to find any trace of her, so the speculation had to be dropped.
The Spider Queen and the Scorpion Queen went all out this time, mobilizing all their subjects to wipe out the murderer who killed their people.
Unable to find the culprit, they transferred their hatred to Qiu Tong and her group, which led to this attack.
Upon witnessing the Zerg army's attack, not only Qiu Tong recalled the last scene the original owner saw in her previous life, but even Quan Hongfang, Yu Fang, and others who had been reborn through a bug all turned pale as they recalled the scene before their deaths.
In my past life, there was no large-scale Zerg attack on the base at this time. Even in the final battle, there weren't as many Zerg as in this attack!
The reborn individuals are all wondering if their return caused the events to occur prematurely.
But that doesn't make sense. In the last life, the Zerg attacked the base together with the mutated animals, but this time there's no sign of the mutated animals. It's clearly a completely different battle from the last life.
As the insectoid swarm drew ever closer, and upon seeing that half of it consisted of scorpions, the reborn's expression turned into a palette of colors.
Only they know just how troublesome these scorpion clan members really are.
It can be said that once you encounter them, there is no chance of escaping unscathed.
Those survivors who had just migrated and settled here looked even worse. They had only been here a few days and were about to face the threat of insects besieging the city. It was no wonder they looked so grim.
I thought this was a good place to settle down. There was no threat from the insectoids, mutated animals were the main food source, and the water was drinkable as long as you didn't mind the strong taste.
Currently, apart from Shaanxi Province, which is free from the Zerg invasion, other regions have been ravaged by the Zerg. Otherwise, so many survivors wouldn't have migrated here in large numbers to settle down.
Who would have thought that a city where not a single Zerg could be seen on the streets the day before would be swarming out today? They are now filled with regret, wishing they had never moved here.
Qiu Tong also looked at the approaching Zerg army with a grim expression. She did not expect the Zerg to attack the base. What was going on?
Seeing Qiu Tong frowning, the Summoning Divine Beast System felt a pang of heartache and said, "Tongtong, there's nothing to be afraid of in these little bugs. You can easily deal with them by summoning the divine beast."
Qiu Tong certainly knew that she could summon divine beasts, but how could she explain the existence of divine beasts?
Li Mengran and the others had already assumed that this was her special ability, but what about Yu Fang?
She once obtained a system for summoning divine beasts. Once the divine beast appears, she should be able to guess that the jade pendant was not lost by her.
Actually, it's not a big deal that she knows the jade pendant is still on me; it's just that Yu Fang has been making a lot of small moves lately.
First, they sent Li Hua and Bu Shuxin to annoy me, then they frequently stole my tasks from them, and spread all sorts of rumors about my team members.
If she finds out I lied to her, she might appear in front of me every day in the future.
It is estimated that they will also join forces with Li Hua and Bu Shuxin to spread rumors that they stole her jade pendant, using public pressure to force her to hand over the jade pendant.
Qiu Tong had indeed predicted Yu Fang's prediction. Sure enough, the day after she summoned the divine beast, the whole base was buzzing with rumors that Qiu Tong had stolen Yu Fang's family heirloom.
With the Zerg army about to invade, Qiu Tong had no choice but to summon a divine beast to deal with them first, and deal with the rest later.
"Summon the divine beast," Qiu Tong murmured to herself.
Ever since she learned that the teleportation channel didn't need to be opened near her, she now opens the channel far away from herself every time she summons a divine beast, so that others won't know where the divine beast came from.
The entire Red Team didn't know where the divine beasts came from either; they always assumed that Qiu Tong used her special abilities to summon them.
This summoning is not the same as that summoning; it means using supernatural abilities to attract mutated animals to come and help.
The teleportation channel opened in an empty room a few hundred meters away from the base. The summoning divine beast system, namely Qingqiong, stepped out of the channel.
When its body emerged completely from the passage, Qiu Tong saw a creature resembling a lion, standing on all fours, with a dragon's head, a snake's tail, and golden scales covering its entire body.
Judging from its appearance alone, it's impossible to tell what kind of creature Qingqiong is. Even it has forgotten what kind of creature it is, only remembering that its name is Qingqiong.
The name "Azure Sky" was only remembered after it lit up all the gray squares on the panel; otherwise, it would just be a "system" that had forgotten everything.
