I am a reincarnation player.

"Deploy the concealment force field, Hope, advance at full speed, target the hive—"

"Fire Chaser Plan, begin!"

Chapter 35: The Queen is Here (Part 1)

The ship trembled slightly. Even if it made a big circle, it would only take about an hour to reach 'Cui Xing City'.

This giant ship was flying close to the atmosphere, which was the limit of its anti-gravity engine. At this altitude, it could avoid all force fields and the patrolling bat dragons.

Go straight in and take the queen's head from among the troops, but everyone knows that this journey is not easy and there is a high possibility that there will be no return.

The defense forces can set up all kinds of false targets, but they can't create a second "Hope". If this ship doesn't show up, the Zerg will not let down their guard.

They are not stupid and know what is the only hope for humanity to turn the tide.

"Be careful. I have a feeling the Queen is waiting for this ship to pass by. This is also his best chance to seize the fire."

In the hangar of Area I, Yuuki was constantly warning Mai Sakurajima. Selfishly, he didn't want his senior to take risks.

But the senior student had to take the risk, as she had at least a 30% chance of success in the entire plan.

"You've been nagging me dozens of times. We've been through so many dungeons and what risks have we not taken?" Mai wrinkled her nose and patted Yuuki's shoulder with a condescending air. "Don't worry, I will definitely find the queen and return safely."

That's true, they have long been able to stand on their own.

Yuki felt that he was being overly concerned, but he still warned: "There are players on the other side, you must be careful."

The sealed door closed, and Sakurajima Mai inside the door made an OK gesture and then disappeared without a trace.

A small landing capsule with optical camouflage was dropped, which would send Mai to the outskirts of the city. She would then use her special skills to sneak in, first finding the place where the skull was located based on the coordinates left behind, and then exploring inside.

The time for youth syndrome is limited. To be honest, this trip is very dangerous, and there is a hidden danger in Yuki that cannot be disclosed.

Aizen, who came here many years ago, is an uncertain factor.

"Worried?" Hayasaka Ai walked over quietly, and the connection was seamless.

"Well, now I both wish the Queen were still here and wish she weren't."

"Which desire is stronger?" the maid asked succinctly.

Yuki lowered his head and thought for a moment before he smiled bitterly and said, "It's better to stay here. If she really gets down on her laurels, we're doomed."

The probability of this happening is actually very low. After dealing with the Zerg for half a month, they have no concept of life and death, only persistence in their goals. Since the Queen wants the fire, she will create opportunities at all costs.

Just like the defense forces sent ordinary soldiers to their deaths, the queen would not care about the lives of hundreds of thousands of insects.

This battle is extremely risky, but once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. No matter what, there is no turning back now.

Hayasaka Ai handed over a cup of coffee and was silent for a moment, then thought of something else: "Those people from the ether particles have been traced."

"Where?" Yuki asked subconsciously. He borrowed the appearance of the Blood Demon last time. If the other party is still alive, this battle is 100% a fraud.

"They're hiding inside the wall. It seems they're trying to get through the dungeon." The maid paused, a hint of envy in her eyes. "These people are so good! They're not willing to take any risks at all."

"Bullshit! You're just leaving your fate to the dungeon." Yuki scoffed, his face filled with disdain. "Do you know why I never choose this seemingly easy strategy?"

Since the Bloodthirsty Red Moon, whether actively or passively, Yuki has always been at the forefront of the strategy and served as the backbone.

"Because you want to be a hero?"

"No, because I'm a little angry." Yuki drank his coffee in one gulp, turned and walked into the lounge.

"The reincarnation game wants me to die and escape reality, but I won't!"

......

"Do you think they will come?"

In the city of flesh and blood fungus, on a high building, Zhenren and Shenwei sat side by side, gazing at the magnificent wall of light in the distance.

This insect nest has entered a state of alert. The fighting on the front line is in full swing, but most of the insects here remain motionless.

"It's possible, it's possible not. It depends on whether they can see this only way out."

"What useful nonsense!" Shenwei laughed, glancing at the blue sky. "They're definitely coming. I can tell from what happened before that the opposing players are quite courageous. They won't just sit there and wait for death. I'm really curious how that blood demon can kill the evil ghost."

"Haha, that blood demon is not even worthy of carrying Akaza's shoes. Some other player must have impersonated him while we were away." The real person sneered, thinking that if Akaza was dead, those people would be happy, and he would be scolded when he returned.

Every camp and every organization has core members. It doesn't matter how many small soldiers die, but the death of core members usually means enmity.

Among the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, there are not only ghosts, but also people who are incompatible with each other.

"Fake identity, hmm, it doesn't seem like the work of that captain, it should be that Sky Island Yukishiro." Shenwei thought very simply. He had the relevant information in his hands about the Zerg invasion database before, so he couldn't help but clap his hands.

"Okay, let me kill this guy. It's definitely more interesting than Ms. Smile and the Captain."

"It's up to you, but at the player level, we are at a disadvantage." The real person reminded that besides the two of them, there was only one miscellaneous ghost soldier left on the Zerg side.

"It doesn't matter. After killing them, the dungeon is almost over." Shenwei swung his feet lightly, supporting his chin, as if thinking about how to relax after the dungeon is over.

"You wish! They will definitely find a way to destroy the fire. Those bugs will go crazy, and we'll probably be dragged down with them."

"Haven't you already made preparations? You can transform your soul into a bug. It should be no problem for it to survive for a day or two. I can kill the bugs then. Both sides have suffered heavy losses. If I can't survive this, then I deserve to die."

The words were lighthearted, but they specifically mentioned the prerequisites for the two people's 'willfulness'.

The main mission of the Lurker is to seize or destroy the fire. It doesn't say that the Lurker has to destroy it personally. It's the same if the opponent does it. The destruction and return of this thing will definitely not be completed instantly, but it will not exceed 48 hours.

Even if the Zerg were to go crazy, they would target humans. The two were still confident that they could withstand the aftermath of their anger.

"Leave the Mechanical Cultist to me. I'll let you handle Sky Island Yuujou. We'll wait until both sides have fought enough before we take action." The real person confirmed this in a cheerful voice, no need for a meeting to discuss it. "I'm just worried now, whether they dare to come."

The two of them are waiting here, and if they find nothing, they will be in trouble.

Shenwei said nothing, his legs suddenly stopped swinging back and forth, and he opened his squinting eyes a little and looked at the empty street below.

"Don't worry, they are here."

......

Is someone watching me?

Mai shuddered and didn't dare to look up. After using this feature so many times, she already understood how to erase the sense of existence.

Don't have evil thoughts towards a specific person, don't look anyone in the eye, don't use any props or skills, and treat yourself as a small transparent person forgotten by the world, so that you won't be observed.

So she didn't dare to look, nor did she need to look. If she was discovered, she would be dead anyway, so she just made up her mind and walked in.

All the bugs hid in the buildings. The wide roads were empty. Everything was quiet. No sound could be heard. The air was filled with the smell of poisonous spores.

Be prepared.

Mai's heart tightened and she quickly quickened her pace. After obtaining the bloodline skills of the psychic warrior, her physical fitness had improved to a certain extent. She quickly climbed over the red wall and found the coordinates left by Yuuki.

The insect swarm in the second ring was even denser, but no matter whether it was the ferocious samurai insect or the human insect with a human head, they could not sense Sakurajima Mai walking past them.

But the sky had already risen, the sunlight was blocked, and it was pitch black all around.

If it were someone else, it would be difficult to move forward at this point. At least it would take a lot of time to search the surroundings, but Yuki was too meticulous.

'Go 300 meters ahead, turn southeast 500 degrees. There's a car wreck on the left. Feel it and go another meters ahead. You can smell a foul odor. Confirm it, then turn northwest degrees...'

Mai simply closed her eyes and turned her back. The dark maze created by the swarm of insects could not trap her at all. After about five minutes, the soft touch under her feet changed.

It is round with a hole in the middle, this is the place of the skull.

Mai leaned over and picked up a skull, confirming that this was the furthest point Yuuki had explored, she stood stiffly, listening carefully to her surroundings, feeling her heartbeat getting faster and faster.

The invisible gaze swept across, detecting every inch of space, giving her an illusion like the sun and the sun, as if this gaze was constantly reading everything.

She had been forgotten by the copy, and it was difficult for even the Connect City to remember her, but her surroundings had not been forgotten.

It's like a book that is too familiar. Because of her, some changes in the book, such as the change of a single word, are of course insignificant, but for readers who have memorized the entire book, they can still notice that something is wrong.

"That pig-head, tell him to sell me out."

Mai gritted her teeth slightly, but had no intention of blaming Yuki, and just stood on tiptoe.

There are still 28 minutes left. If I can't find it, I don't have time to go back, so I might as well make up my mind and give it a try.

Her extraordinary physical fitness combined with her bloodline skills made her steps extremely light as she stepped on those round skulls and moved forward. Her gaze guided her in the right direction, so she didn't have to waste time searching in this dark place.

Mai tiptoed forward almost one meter at a time, and soon heard a puffing sound in her ears, like a fart.

Is something moving?

She tried her best to construct the surrounding environment in her mind and felt that she had passed through an invisible membrane again, just like opening a toilet door, and a strong stench hit her in the face.

The stench, as if from countless piled-up corpses, was nauseating. Mai held her breath, her throat surging as she forcibly suppressed the urge to vomit. At this moment, she saw several beams of emerald green light.

Jadeite stone.

Mai scanned the surroundings with a cursory gaze, not even daring to focus her pupils. She felt as if she had walked into a cave, with scarlet, surging folds all around her.

Not a cave, more like the large intestine of a living thing?

The ground was covered with countless skulls, densely packed and stretching into the distance. The tops of the heads were also covered with dense protrusions that looked like stalactites, but their surfaces were covered with bloodshot and were constantly shrinking.

Insect eggs, countless insect eggs.

Mai felt goosebumps all over and even had claustrophobia, but she was also extremely excited, as this proved that she had found the right place.

The deep passage seems to be inside a living organism.

Is the real insect nest here? Hey, what is that?

Mai approached the emerald stones and saw a long sword leaning against the 'rock wall' of the cave. Its appearance was simple and unpretentious, very much like the weapon commonly used by Yuki.

The knife stood out among the densely packed skulls and insect eggs. Mai certainly didn't dare to touch it. She just looked at it a few more times and quickly walked past it.

Pfft, pfft.

Strange noises continued to be heard, and insect eggs above his head fell. Several warrior insects covered in blood crawled out from inside and immediately walked out of the cave.

Mai stood frozen in place, almost certain that she had found the right place. She glanced at the deep cave and continued walking inside with gritted teeth.

The time for the characteristic passed by minute by minute, and the gaze was still scanning. Mai forgot the consequences of dying on the spot without the characteristic, and just walked in and saw many strange things.

In one area, there were thousands of stone beds filled with shriveled corpses, much like the mummies in textbooks, except that each one had been disemboweled.

In a certain area, countless jade stones were sinking into the quagmire of flesh and blood at a speed visible to the naked eye. The thick blood vessels on the walls were surging, as if sending these stones to somewhere else.

The cave was too huge and its structure was extremely complex, with forks in the road everywhere. Mai simply gave up the idea of ​​retreating because she found that she could not find the way back at all. She could only follow her sight and go deeper.

Closer, closer.

Mai Sakurajima was caught up in some strange obsession and forgot the vibration of her watch, which was reminding her that her special ability could last for another 10 minutes.

Walking into a 'corridor' inlaid with jade stones, the pace slowed down, and the sight was almost at the end.

But at this moment, an ethereal female voice came from all directions.

"You finally came."

His muscles tensed instantly, his heart stopped beating, his purple eyes widened, and the corners of his mouth trembled uncontrollably.

Mai felt her soul leaving her body and began to go through the motions of death, but she seemed to have accepted her fate and remained motionless, with no intention of activating any defensive items.

"You finally came."

The ethereal voice came a second time, causing her heart to start beating again and causing Mai to purse her lips.

What a cunning bug, it actually cheated me.

She breathed a sigh of relief. If she had been discovered by now, she would have no fighting ability at all and had to choose to give up.

Phew, that pig head would be doomed, but vegetables also have their advantages.

Patting her chest, she knew that it was Yuki's turn to fight to the death with his sword drawn. Then she looked forward and saw a door that kept opening and closing like a gastric antrum. This time, there was no intention of moving forward at all.

We are close enough here, going any further would be courting death.

Mai doesn't want to die silently and let Hayasaka Ai get away with it. She will be forgotten by the world, but she has a way to send her coordinates.

She pulled out the spirit particle communicator and crushed it without hesitation. The signal from the host computer would immediately be lost, and Yuuki, who had been ignoring her, would be awakened. Then, following logical thinking, she would remember herself and her mission, and finally realize something.

The Queen is here!

Chapter 36: Mirror Flowers and Water Moons? (Part 2)

Hope, bridge.

Looking out, a clear arc appeared in the sky. The giant ship was hovering over Green Star City. Except for a few maintenance engineers and control personnel, the rest were all soldiers.
