From the time the vanguard team encountered the Scythe Worm until now, they had been relying on all sorts of obstacles to chase the Scythe Worm for more than 10 hours in the third floor of the base. From the initial encounter with the nest in the main pa.s.sageway to the other places inside the base, the vanguard team had already deviated from their original position by almost a kilometer.

The route the vanguard team had taken was littered with the corpses of numerous scythes and larvae, as well as the corpses of a few of the team members. This was an extremely brutal battle, and the troops were under tremendous pressure all the time. Fortunately, Anthony had the ability to scan the area, which allowed him to see through the Scythe Worm's attack routes first and also allowed him to find a place to hide for the team to rest for a short period of time. Otherwise, the vanguard team would have been wiped out long ago.

Now, the ammunition they had tried to keep from the beginning was nearly exhausted. From the original five people in the team, only Anthony and Lucca remained. The intense battle caused the number of team members to decrease. Amongst the team members who died, the one who died was Orloff, who died the most miserably.

Anthony was unable to forget the scene of the tall figure being surrounded by a swarm of bugs. In the end, he brazenly detonated the high-energy grenade, allowing himself and the hundreds of bugs to perish together.

At this point, Anthony's spirit was like a tight string that could be snapped at any moment. As for Lucca's broken sword, it was now only left with half of it. If the scythe insect were to attack a little more, the two of them would become the worm's food in their stomachs without any suspense. However, at such a critical moment, the Scythe Bug actually retreated, with a hint of escaping.

The entire base was gently shaking, as if there was an earthquake happening below. Anthony frowned, using his remaining spiritual power to scan the area. However, he would compress the scanning method from the surface into a line. By doing so, his psychic power would become a thread even thinner than a needle, which would have a high penetrating power. Anthony directed his spiritual force directly into the ground in such a way as to sense what was happening underground.

Naturally, this method of scanning was not as detailed as the normal method. Anthony was unable to 'see' the specific details, and could only roughly sense some blurry light figures.

When the spirit threads penetrated through the following four levels of bases and entered the fifth level directly, Anthony saw a blurry shadow as well as two b.a.l.l.s of resplendent energy rays. It was just a simple touch, but the end of the spirit threads immediately cracked and shattered. Anthony turned pale with fright. If all his mental threads were shattered, he would turn into a madman.

At this moment, the splitting of the spirit threads continued, and in a short moment, a small section of it disintegrated. Anthony immediately stopped scanning. When the spirit threads returned, he saw another blurry face. Although it was not clear, he still recognized that it was the face of zero!

When Anthony completely retracted his spiritual force, his body trembled, and two streams of blood spurted out of his nostrils. He felt as if a sledgehammer had ruthlessly smashed down on his head, causing his entire head to hurt so much that it felt like it was about to explode. Anthony held onto his head, his status on the verge of collapse, while Lucca, who was beside him, went over to support him. At the same time, he asked anxiously, "Are you alright?"

A moment later, the pain in Anthony's head gradually subsided. His entire body seemed to have collapsed, and he couldn't even stand properly. He was completely supported by Lucca. Anthony said weakly, "Let's go. There is a battle happening underground that is beyond our imagination. The battle will spread to this place soon, let's leave quickly! "

Seeing that Anthony, who was usually calm and composed, was actually speaking with an exasperated tone, Lucca's expression tightened. He immediately helped Anthony up and walked back along the path of blood they had come by. On the way to the exit, Anthony, who had been silent all this while, suddenly said, "I can't stand it, Lucca."

Lucca didn't speak. His eyes stared silently at the darkness in front of him. It was not peaceful in the dark, and adult scythes and larvae were rus.h.i.+ng around the ceiling, the walls, or both of them, rus.h.i.+ng back and forth toward the exit. At this moment, the scythe bugs no longer cared about Anthony and the other two humans. They even jumped over their heads and didn't stop attacking them.

When they arrived at the resting area, Anthony suddenly pushed Lucca away. Losing his support, he immediately fell to the ground. Luca ran two steps forward before stopping and then walked back to him.

"Leave me alone!" Anthony shouted. He struggled to get up and continued, "Luca, go!"

"What about you?" Luca asked in a low voice.

"I'm not leaving." Anthony seemed to have made up his mind, and said: "If we go back like this, Olam's sacrifice will be worthless. They're on their way here, too. I want to try. It's fine if you're not willing, but it's fine if you want to give it a try for Olam! "

"What do you want? Snipe zero? "How do you know the experimental diary will be on Zero? What if it isn't?" Lucca waved his fist and said, "Enough. There are already enough people who died in front of me today. Listen, Anthony, to be honest, I don't like you very much, but I don't want you to die just like that. "

Anthony laughed. "What if the diary is on Zero? Anyway, I don't want to miss anything. "Let's go, Luca. This is my battle, and also my insistence. You didn't want to get involved in it either."

Lucca became silent. Worms kept flitting past him. They were so fast that they left shadows in the air. Just when Lucca walked back in this patch of shadows, he suddenly swung his fist.

A solid punch landed on Anthony's face, sending him flying back from Lucca's punch. When he fell to the ground, Luca went over to him and picked Anthony up again. Looking at Anthony's swollen face, Lucca said in a deep voice, "I can only say that you're a b.a.s.t.a.r.d, and at the same time, a fool." However, I don't seem to be very smart. Then let's do it together, for honor's sake! "

Anthony gripped Lucca's st.u.r.dy arm and similarly said in a deep voice, "For honor!"

The bugs continued to retreat, and soon, the shadow of the bugs covered the two of them. When he left again, Anthony and the other man were no longer there.

The night was cold and still.

"Put me down, Maple, I think I can walk by myself."

Ma pei said as he carried Zero out of the entrance of the third floor and onto the black man's shoulder.

In the fifth floor of the base, after being stopped by Valkyrie and Callio, Zilch and Eva met up at the exit and quickly left the fifth floor. At the exit, Zero could see the corpses of quite a few strange fish. It seemed that in order to attract the attention of Angie, Gulet and the other kids, they had killed quite a few of the fish. Other than the initial trap, he had also used various tactics to harvest the lives of the strange fish. When he returned, he found out that at least a hundred strange fish had died under their weapons. Adding on the initial trap he had obtained, within just an hour, Angie had lost more than a hundred young children.

Now, everyone had retreated to the third floor of the base. The wails of the G.o.ddess of Vengeance could be heard constantly from the pa.s.sageway. The fourth layer of the secret base had been submerged in water, and as the water flowed out, Anji's youngest son swam with the water to the fourth layer of the secret base. In this way, the slow moving G.o.ddess of Vengeance became the best target. With the fast movement speed of the monster fish and the fact that it could shoot them at any time, the biological bomb of the Vengeance G.o.ddess would not be able to hit them. Furthermore, the strange fish were very smart. They wouldn't gather together in groups to give the Vengeance G.o.ddess a chance to kill them.

When they were pa.s.sing through the 4th floor's base, they witnessed a Vengeance G.o.ddess being attacked by hundreds of strange fishes. Soon, her body was bitten into pieces, and her internal organs and flesh were eaten up miserably.

In the three story base, almost all the sickle bugs had already left. However, the Human-Faced Moths and a few other G.o.ddesses were trying their best to escape through the safe pa.s.sage. The few of them were still surrounded by bugs, but right now, neither the Human-Faced Moths nor the G.o.ddess had the time to pay attention to them.

After falling back to the ground, he took a deep breath inside his helmet. Valkyrie had restored him to 5% of his strength, and with the help of Maple, he rested again on his shoulder, recovering a small part of his strength at the same time. Although he was still unable to fight, the strength he had recovered was enough for him to move around normally. At least he wouldn't slow down the team's speed.

After confirming that Zero could move on his own, the team moved again. As soon as they reached the center of the base, the ground began to shake violently once more. It seemed like the battle between the two was not going to be easy. Su Ming secretly frowned, but his footsteps were much faster. They followed the tide of insects that was rolling towards the exit and arrived at the resting area. As soon as they stepped into this area, they stopped instantly.

A faintly discernible sense of danger lurked within the worm, extending its dangerous tentacles towards the few of them. He could not see anything, but his instincts told him that danger was approaching.

At this moment, the sense of crisis suddenly intensified. A line of fire pa.s.sed through the insect torrent, and all the worms that were in the path of the fire were penetrated. And at the end of the path of fire was the broad chest of Ma pei!

Zero, who was standing next to him, charged towards him. The force of the one-to-one collision was tremendous. It knocked Ma Pei away and caused the black man to fall into the swarm of bugs. A few Man-Faced Moths were startled by the sudden disturbance and flew away. However, they quickly changed their direction and flew away. The speed of the Insect Tempest was not affected at all, and only a zero-degree team was affected.

Zero knocked the horse away and threw himself into someone's shooting track. As the bullet entered his left chest, Anthony's smiling face suddenly appeared in Zero's mind. Instantly, he knew that this attack was a trap meticulously prepared for him!

The kinetic energy of the bullet caused the bullet to fly into the air and then fall backwards. At this moment, the sound of a sniper rifle came from afar. Eva was the fastest of the first few, and instead of throwing herself at zero, she turned and lunged for the sniper rifle's firing range. Eva's charge was so fast and powerful. The moment she dashed out, the dozens of man-faced moths that accidentally hit her bounced up into the air and exploded one by one.

Feng and Su who were behind rushed back at Zero, who had already fallen to the ground. The Night G.o.d's battle uniform was torn apart by the sniper rifle, and blood was flowing out from his zero chest area. But what was even more serious was that when Feng took off Zero's helmet, he discovered that his eyes were wide open, but there was no light in his pupils, as if he was about to lose focus at any time. Even the golden flame in his right eye had dimmed to the point that it was about to be extinguished!
