Card Room - 172

[Chapter 230, the eve of the war]

On the twelfth day of the secret room, the Zerg army gathered at the Dongguan Bridge in accordance with the Queen’s instructions.

The assembled Zerg army did not take any action. Sure enough, as Xiaolou and the others had guessed, the queen sent a signal to summon the Zerg. The more important purpose was to find out the “Zerg traitors” who did not obey the instructions and eliminate them one by one.

For her, more than 99% of the city’s residents have been infected, and it is the last step before the Zerg can completely occupy the city.

Since the Zerg can only have one leader at the same time, those Zergs who cannot continue to upgrade due to the existence of the queen after reaching the ninth level in the melee will become her strongest subordinates once they obey her, but once If you don’t listen to her, those high-level Zerg will become the greatest threat to her.

With the current strength of the Zerg Queen, ordinary humans can no longer defeat her. What she feared most was the high-level Zerg who wanted to replace her. Therefore, she gathered the Zerg army to gather the Zerg who were willing to take orders from her to prepare for the final cleansing of the city.

Shao Qingge is now the ninth-level Zerg, one of the queen’s greatest threats.

After a day’s rest, he thoroughly tame the new zerg in his body, and his zerg ability was restored to full state. Shao Qingge tried to scratch his arm with his nails. Within a minute, the arm was visible to the naked eye. The speed magically healed.

Ye Qi stretched out his hand and gently touched his healed arm, and said with emotion: “It looks like a human, but I always feel that there is a hard armor under this layer of skin?”

Shao Qingge squeezed the muscles on his arms with a smile, and said, “Yes, that is the armor of the Zerg. My body is now exposed to some skin trauma at most. It is difficult to pierce through ordinary knives and guns. Besides, the healing of the Zerg The ability is very strong, even if the sharpest knife is severed, in theory, a new one will grow in a few minutes.”

Ye Qi gave a thumbs up: “This ability is too strong!”

Xiao Lou said: “Mr Shao can be said to have an’immortal body’ unless it burns.”

Ye Qi asked curiously: “Then are you afraid of fire?”

Shao Qingge shook his head: “I’m not afraid. Because I am essentially a human now, my will has suppressed the will of the Zerg and assimilated them. The Zerg is naturally afraid of fire, and I am not afraid. Of course, burning me with fire will definitely burn me to death. ”

Xiao Lou’s eyes lit up: “In this way, we can try to use fire to deal with the Zerg queen. As long as she is not formed after human assimilation of the Zerg, then Mr. Shao has one more advantage over her-not afraid of fire.”

Yu Hanjiang frowned slightly, touched his chin and said, “Will the Zerg queen also be a challenger?”

Shao Qingge shook his head: “It’s not like that. If the challenger is upgraded to a queen after assimilation, she can issue other instructions to disperse the Zerg, or stop the attack, so that the challenger team can easily pass the level. However, she The first order was for the Zerg army to gather to the Dongguan Bridge, and she has been sending out signals to search for the Zerg around. I’m sure this queen should still be a Zerg.”

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang looked at each other. I remember that when I met the challenger team of Fallen Pavilion and Eternal Nation in the supermarket at the beginning, the captain of Fallen Pavilion mentioned that the Zerg might produce leaders such as “queen”, which is also a common setting in science fiction movies. .

who can that be?

Xiao Lou thought carefully about the people he met in the first place, the woman who went crazy in the hospital? That little girl? Or the interns next to you, or the female respiratory patients who first developed the disease in the Second Hospital?

Each one is possible, and it may be something they haven’t seen before.

Xiao Lou took a deep breath and looked at Shao Qingge: “Mr. Shao, you have just acquired the powerful abilities of the Zerg. You may not be very proficient in using it. Practice and master this ability as soon as possible.”

Shao Qingge nodded. He jumped and jumped directly from the top of the building to the top of the front building. The jumping distance was close to the 50 meters of the teleport card. After the evolution, Shao Qingge’s climbing, jumping, and attacking abilities have been fully improved. The fighting power is not inferior to Yu Hanjiang, and Shao Qingge has an advantage in dealing with the Zerg. After all, the low-level Zerg will not attack him actively.

Shao Qingge tried repeatedly to jump and climb to practice the newly acquired abilities. Everyone looked at his squat and walked on the wall, and they couldn’t help feeling: “Zong Shao is no longer fighting the five scums and lying down to win the emperor. Suddenly he is not used to it. !”

Yu Hanjiang whispered: “It is a good thing for the team to have one more combat power. In the past, one person was always required to protect President Shao. Now he does not need our protection, but can protect his teammates. This is also a great improvement for the entire team.”

Everyone nodded their heads and was very happy for President Shao, but, I don’t know if this ability can be taken out of the secret room? When the body data is cleared when leaving the secret room, Mr. Shao will definitely return to being a normal person unless he draws a relevant card. Judging from the fact that Xiao Lou drew the zombie leader Liu Xiaoyuan in 2 of Spades, maybe Mr. Shao can really draw the Zerg card this time.

It was almost lunch time, and Shao Qingge had practised his abilities and returned to the top of the building to have dinner with everyone.

Ye Qi asked seriously: “Do you want to eat instant noodles now, or do you want to eat human blood?”

Shao Qingge dumbfoundedly rubbed the boy’s head and said, “Of course I eat noodles. I am still human in nature.”

He paused, lowered his voice and said in Ye Qi’s ear: “You fed me blood at the time. After I assimilated the Zerg, I also remembered…Does my hand still hurt?”

He gently raised Ye Qi’s hand and looked at the scratched finger.

Ye Qi put a band-aid on his hand. After all, Ye Qi’s skin did not have the ability to heal automatically. After a few days, the wound was still there. Shao Qingge’s heart tightened slightly and said softly, “Don’t do such silly things in the future.”

Ye Qi smiled and said, “I’m afraid you will starve to death if you become a bug. It’s okay, minor injuries.”

Shao Qingge didn’t say much, and personally changed him to a new band-aid.

After everyone gathered for lunch, Yu Hanjiang glanced into the distance, looked at Shao Qingge seriously, and said: “The Zerg army should have been gathered, we have to plan the next action as soon as possible. The queen can perceive Shao’s position, I will definitely bring some high-power subordinates to destroy President Shao. If she brings some ninth-level zergs to kill you, what chance do you have?”

Shao Qingge frowned and thought about it, and said: “It is still not sure how many high-level Zergs are around the Queen, but we also have a great advantage. First, I not only have Zerg abilities, but also cards, and you teammates. Everyone can work together to control those zergs. Secondly, I am not afraid of fire, zergs are afraid of fire. Perhaps we can start from this aspect and make some arrangements in advance.”

He paused, and then said: “I worry about the Zerg queen the most. The ninth-level Zerg is already so powerful. I don’t know how strong the tenth-level Zerg’s ability is. Will the body be invulnerable and heal immediately after being injured. ?”

Yu Hanjiang also considered this possibility. The ability of the tenth-level queen will obviously be stronger than Shao Qingge. The specific strength is still unclear. Once she brings her elite troops to kill Shao Qingge, if everyone does not make arrangements in advance, let alone perfect clearance, it is very The big ones may be destroyed.

The enemy’s combat power cannot be estimated, and this is the most troublesome.

Yu Hanjiang’s thoughts were conveyed to Xiao Lou’s mind through the channel of heart and soul. Xiao Lou took paper and pen, and analyzed it as he wrote: “Zergs will only merge when they are in danger, and two Zergs of the same level can be upgraded to a higher level. , To fuse a ninth-level zerg, and 256 first-level zergs are needed.”

Xiao Lou carefully recalled his experience these days.

On the first day, the challengers were busy looking for teammates to gather and accumulate supplies. The Zerg had just invaded the city, and they were madly biting the surrounding humans. The worms had no organization and discipline, and their locations were scattered. There would be no large-scale integration. Upgrade situation.

Like their encounters in the supermarket, only 50 Zergs were killed by them, and even if they merged with each other in danger, only the third and fourth-level Zergs were merged.

That night, when they fled from the city center to Chengdong District, they saw all the zergs in the central area suddenly gather. The dense swarms of insects flooded into the residential area like a flood, attacking the uninfected humans in the city…

Thinking of this, Xiao Lou suddenly said: “By the way, so many zerg collective actions on the first night must have been called by the high-level zerg. President Shao, can you order the lower-level zerg?”

Shao Qingge said: “A few in a small area are okay. If you want to call on a large-scale zerg, only tenth-level leaders can do it.”

Ye Qi’s eyes widened suddenly: “In other words, did the Zerg queen actually come into being on the first day? At that time, when we ran out of Lao Mo’s studio to explore the way, we saw shopping plazas, food courts, office buildings… …A large number of Zerg races crowded into the residential area, is that the order given by the queen?”

Shao Qingge’s expression also became serious: “It seems so, only the queen can mobilize thousands of Zerg.”

Xiao Lou only felt a chill in her back: “This queen should be very scheming. She has been lurking, first summon the Zerg to infect the residents of the city center, and then let the vanguard troops find the fish that slipped through the net. Step by step, step by step, step by step, the plan is very meticulous. Now, the residents in the city are almost overwhelmed, and she has targeted the high-level Zerg who refuses to obey her orders.”

Yu Hanjiang added: “The Gao Xiaoyi team was besieged by the Zerg in Chengbei University Town. At that time, they used chemistry and physics knowledge to blow up an experimental building. The Zerg would definitely merge themselves in panic when they encountered an explosion, and they should be able to generate nine. Level zerg. We use gasoline to burn worms outside the warehouse, and those zergs that have not been burnt can also generate ninth level.”

Xiao Lou looked at Yu Hanjiang and said: “According to the characteristics of the Zerg, large-scale Zerg army will only merge spontaneously when it encounters danger. The aborigines of this city have been infected too much at first because they don’t know the truth. When there are tens of thousands of Zerg army, they can easily be overwhelmed by Zerg. Therefore, the biggest crisis of Zerg should be created by us challengers.”

Yu Hanjiang agreed: “Well, the challengers have cards, and the people who have reached this level in the Survival Chamber are all experienced. They can quickly find out the weaknesses of the Zerg and learn to destroy them by burning them.”

Shao Qingge understood what Xiao Lou meant: “Professor Xiao said that the number of high-level zergs should be related to the number of crises created by the challenger team-only when we create crises can the zergs integrate themselves?”

Xiao Lou nodded and said: “These days, most of the challengers are fleeing around and will not take the initiative to trouble the Zerg. But if the Zerg comes to the door, everyone will definitely take measures in advance, using explosives/drugs and gasoline. To deal with the Zerg with various flammable and explosive products such as alcohol, alcohol, etc., it is easy to intensify the self-fusion of the Zerg.”

When Ye Qi heard this, he couldn’t help but interject: “I remember this time in the secret room, the challenger team should be around 30, right?”

Xiao Lou said: “Yes, but in the first two or three days, the challenger suffered heavy casualties. Many people didn’t realize the weakness of the Zerg need to be burned. Several teams were wiped out by the Zerg group. Only the challengers who survived later mastered the skills to destroy the Zerg. At the same time, it also catalyzed the integration and upgrading of the Zerg…According to my inference, after more than ten days of guerrilla warfare, with the exception of the Zerg queen, the number of ninth-level Zerg should be around 100.”

He inferred this way, also based on the characteristics of the Zerg.

Zergs like to live in groups, but they do not merge with each other inexplicably. After all, each Zerg actually has its own consciousness, thought and memory. Even if it is very weak, they are all independent individuals and will not be swallowed by the same kind.

Only when it is extremely dangerous, the Zerg can hardly protect itself, and will quickly merge and upgrade with the surrounding companions-this is probably their “survival” instinct.

Urban residents are infected too quickly, and it is difficult to create a crisis that will panic the Zerg when being overwhelmed by a large number of Zergs. Therefore, the number of times of Zerg’s self-fusion is similar to the number of troubles caused by the challenger. There can only be one level 10 queen, and the number of level 9 will not be too much. For example, 80% of the Zergs were used by Xiaolou and they used gasoline in the warehouse that day. Burning to death, the rest will melt at most two or three ninth-level zerg.

These days, the challenger team has created major crises, and the number of times that Zerg’s self-fusion will not be triggered too much. The 100 he speculated is still overestimated. Maybe some challengers will not fight but just hide when they encounter the Zerg. Will not self-integrate.

Hearing Xiao Lou’s conclusion, Shao Qingge frowned and said, “According to Professor Xiao, if we count the number of high-level Zergs by 100, we are not absolutely sure. Those who are equal to me, I can’t directly suppress them with my will. It needs everyone’s cooperation and arrangement in advance.”

Yu Hanjiang thought about it carefully, and said, “I have a way.” He looked at Xiao Lou, with a question in his eyes: “It’s just that this way can only be realized if Gao Xiaoyi and his team work together.”

Xiao Lou quickly reacted: “Do you want to use their various cards of high physics and chemistry to set up a trap, and then use the trap to blow them up after the Zerg queen comes to the door?”

Yu Hanjiang nodded: “We deal with the superiority of the high-level Zerg. Mr. Shao said just now. First, we are not afraid of fire. Second, we have cards. Only when these two advantages are fully utilized can we win this tough battle. .”

After he said, he added: “In the beginning, we were afraid to cooperate with other challengers, because we were afraid that infected persons in other people’s teams would suddenly attack us behind them. But now Mr. Shao himself is a ninth-level zerg, even if others There is no fear of infected people in the team. Shao always can perceive the existence of the Zerg. This concern can be completely eliminated. Therefore, we can try to cooperate.”

Ye Qi worriedly said: “But are they willing to cooperate? After all, there are only three days left to pass the level. If they hide and walk away from the Zerg, they will pass the level more safely. If they face the Zerg queen with us, this approach is very dangerous. .”

Yu Hanjiang said: “Talk to them as soon as possible.”

Xiao Lou fully supported Yu Hanjiang’s decision and nodded: “Okay, let’s talk about it.”

That night, when the Challenger Temporary Alliance came to find them, Yu Hanjiang remembered the direction that the group had left, and went to the east. He guessed that Gao Xiao might also bring the group back to the warehouse.

There was a big battle near the warehouse. The raging fire produced by gasoline burned countless Zergs. Because Zergs were naturally afraid of flames, they would naturally not go back to that place.

At that time, Yu Hanjiang controlled the flames in the outer circle. The warehouse was not affected by gasoline explosions. There were many fruits and vegetables inside. If the Challenger Alliance wanted to find a temporary base, it was indeed the best choice.

Yu Hanjiang looked at Shao Qingge: “I’ll leave it to President Shao here, and Professor Xiao and I will talk to them.”

In the past, he was still worried about giving his teammates to Mr. Shao for protection, but now, unless the queen comes over immediately, dealing with ordinary bugs is easy for Shao Qingge. Moreover, Xiao Lou handed the card [Tao Yuanming] to Shao Qingge. When he encountered a situation that couldn’t be solved, he could open Peach Blossom Spring and teleport it in groups, and go in Peach Blossom Spring to hide for three hours.

Shao Qingge earnestly promised: “Don’t worry, there is me here. Go and come back quickly and pay attention to your safety.”

Yu Hanjiang put his arm around Xiao Lou’s waist with one hand, and took Xiao Lou away with his light skill and teleport cards.

The two teleported continuously in the air and soon arrived near the warehouse.

A fire burned all the surrounding trees, and the ground was full of broken limbs of Zerg, which looked terrible.

Xiao Lou threw Ye Qi’s wiretap far away and whispered: “There are people in the warehouse.”

Yu Hanjiang nodded and flew to the warehouse door with Xiaolou in his arms. Xiao Lou knocked gently on the door, and Wen Yan said, “Is Gao Xiao also here? We have something to discuss with you.”

Inside the room, Gao Xiao also widened her eyes in surprise, and she heard Xiao Lou’s voice. The girl stood up, asked the other teammates to quickly be on guard, and said from a distance, “What’s the matter?”

Xiao Lou said: “Can you take a step to speak?”

Gao Xiao also walked to the door and kept a safe distance from Xiao Lou: “You said.”

Xiao Lou lowered his voice: “We want to score a perfect pass. We need your help. I wonder if you are interested?”

Gao Xiao was also slightly startled: “Perfect clearance?”

Yu Hanjiang said: “According to the setting of this secret room, the level can be perfectly cleared by eliminating the Zerg queen.”

Gao Xiaoyi’s face instantly turned pale as paper: “Don’t be kidding, do you know how strong the Zerg queen is? We formed a temporary alliance because we met her!”

As Gao Xiaoyi’s voice amplified, the teammates next to her also heard her.

A guy in the physics department with glasses walked over and said: “We saw a flying shadow during our escape. The Zerg queen seemed to have the ability to fly. She actually flew directly from one tall building to another tall building, and jumped instantly. Behind us, there are many high-level zergs around her. If we hadn’t had the Golden Cicada’s Escape from the Shell card that could teleport in groups, we would almost be wiped out.”

Gao Xiao also said; “Yes, the zerg queen’s abilities are very terrible, and want to destroy her? You must know that she is not alone in the fight. There are dozens of high-level zergs under her, and thousands of zerg soldiers. , How can we destroy her with the power of people like us?”

Xiao Lou softly persuaded: “Don’t underestimate your abilities. No matter how powerful she is, she is still a Zerg in nature, and her nature of being afraid of fire will not change. Moreover, she is only physically strong, with climbing and jumping abilities raised to the limit, but we have the cards. With the cards in hand, we can control her.”

The boy helped his glasses: “What you said makes sense, but it’s too risky to do so. We hide now and pass the customs after the last three days. Is it necessary to take this risk?”

Yu Hanjiang said sharply: “Don’t you want to complete the game perfectly? It’s only 8 of spades. You dare not challenge the Zerg queen with obvious weakness. When you get to the jack of spades and the king of spades, do you also want to hide?”

Xiao Lou echoed: “That’s right. Although the risk of perfect clearance is high, the benefits are also large. After the S-score is cleared, you can draw a powerful S card, which is also helpful for future secret rooms.”

Seeing that the boys’ attitude was a little shaken, Xiao Lou went on to say: “We only need you to help arrange traps, and let us do the dangerous task of fighting the queen of the Zerg. There are too many queens and high-level Zergs, and we only rely on the eight of us. It’s really hard for power to destroy them. When it’s time to cooperate, it’s better to clear customs. It’s good for everyone, isn’t it?”

Yu Hanjiang said: “Besides, your captain Cheng Ziyang is dead. With his strength, it is impossible to return from the nightmare room of 8 of spades. Your team also needs to increase its combat effectiveness and draw more good cards. Think about it.”

The two people are like “husbands sing and follow each other”, and they have a tacit understanding.

Gao Xiao also looked at each other with his teammates.

Before she could speak, she heard the female captain of Luoying Pavilion suddenly say: “I am willing to help.”

The neat girl walked in front of Xiao Lou with a cold expression: “Our Luoying Pavilion pursues perfect clearance every time in the secret room, but it is too difficult to pass the secret room perfectly. Since you are willing to work together, I can provide card assistance for free.”

Xiao Lou nodded at her: “Thank you.”

Xiao Lou remembered the scene of her teammate burning to death at that time. The female captain had iron-blooded wrists, and she was really quick and decisive in making decisions. With such allies joining, Xiao Lou also gained a little more confidence.

At present, there is no competitive relationship between the challengers, and there is no need to be afraid of the infected person being stabbed in the back. As long as everyone is willing to join forces and there are so many cards, naturally they can find the safest way to kill the queen. Mutual benefit and win-win cooperation.

Seeing that the people from Luoying Pavilion took the initiative to stand up, Gao Xiao also gritted his teeth and said: “Okay, let’s try it too!”

Xiao Lou glanced at the others.

Uncle Beard of the Eternal Realm smiled and said: “We will not mix up. We only pursue ordinary customs clearance. It is not necessary to take this risk to perfect customs clearance. Good luck to everyone.”

This guild has always been a Buddhist family, only doing weekly routines, and does not like to challenge the difficult secret room. Xiao Lou is also very surprised why they suddenly came to the 8 spades secret room, but from the smiling attitude of Uncle Beard, they can’t guess their purpose.

Xiao Lou nodded politely and no longer forced them.

The two teams willing to join the plan to kill the queen were brought back to the temporary base by Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang.

There are 10 people from the Faraway Association, 11 from Luoyingge, and 8 from Xiaolou. The three teams add up to less than 30 people.

What they are about to face is the tenth-level Zerg queen, about a hundred nine-level Zerg, and countless Zerg soldiers!

This battle is extremely risky, but in order to pass the level perfectly, you can only grit your teeth to get stronger cards in the lottery and go to the more difficult secret rooms.

Xiao Lou said: “In case we can’t fight at that time, we will figure out the retreat route to ensure that everyone will not be destroyed by the regiment.”

The female captain of Luoying Pavilion simply nodded: “Okay, let’s talk about it, how to arrange it?”

Xiao Lou smiled and took out a piece of paper and said, “We want to turn this community into a flame maze.”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Today it will be 6000, and tomorrow will be the end of this secret room in one go, okay!
