Chapter 620: Chapter 187: Trapped in the Insect Man Nest (3)
The Mechanical Limbs soldier paused, somewhat anticipative, yet unwilling to part with his mecha.
Space Button can’t be used in subspace, and although his standard mecha isn’t expensive, it takes a long time to apply for one.
"In urgent matters, you must act expediently; your mecha isn’t as good as Standard Black Wings." If subspace didn’t prevent the use of mecha, Ji Heng might have wanted to replace his mecha.
Time waits for no one, the Mechanical Limbs soldier decided to give up his mecha, transferring the powerful weapons to Black Wing, before climbing onto the deck behind Ji Heng’s full chair.
Ji Heng gazed forward, praying that Su Xiaocai’s predictions were accurate, his superpower indeed could conceal the truth.
The two drifted towards the exit, which was just behind the mecha projection, a small vortex.
Ji Heng took a deep breath, trusting in the judgment of the bright one, and stepped in.
A brief dizziness, beyond that door, was a repair room, only wide enough for a person to pass.
Ji Heng’s superpower had already activated, ordinary Insect Men happened to pass by them, only considering the mecha as a decoration.
My God, they really entered the Insect Man Nest.
Above the custom mecha, a giant chrysalid was hanging, continuously spawning new Insect Men within, seemed to be where the Mother Entity resided.
Now, to complete the task or not.
The custom mecha hadn’t been damaged, merely entangled by some chrysalid silk, still intact.
Newborn Insect Men didn’t linger long, they crawled out of the chrysalid, then departed towards another exit direction, emerging as cowardly insect soldiers, without encountering Greed.
The broadcast device followed them out of subspace, signal restored, images transmitted to the live broadcast room, on-site reporters and viewers were electrified.
"Mother Entity, surely it’s the nest."
"Where did Ji Er end up."
"Signal lost for almost an hour, and now it’s back showing me this."
"Big Demon just defeated two Evil Insects, now repairing mecha, who will help."
"Why did my husband end up here. Points are lagging behind."
Ji Heng didn’t want to come here either; emerging from subspace meant confronting this thing.
But the entrance to subspace had changed, the bright one couldn’t detect the entrance, nothing behind them, several exit doors monopolized by Insect Men.
Although Ji Heng could use his superpower to mask the "food" aroma, reducing his presence.
He couldn’t press his body against Insect Men unnoticed unless perhaps his Qi Sensitivity Level increased.
But what of the Mother Entity, where did it go?
He glanced around, not seeing any sign of the Mother Entity.
Ji Heng couldn’t help but raise several questions, is the Mother Entity really inside the chrysalid? If not, then where is it?
Does the Mother Entity have spatial abilities, if he encounters it, how can he save himself.
"To complete the task or not." The Mechanical Limbs soldier was undecided, leaving the decision to Ji Heng. If they undertake the task, they’ll proceed, otherwise, they can’t retreat, the best option is to remain perfectly still.
"I’ll first report to command, tell Big Demon not to enter."
In this place, even if the task is completed, only two choices remain.
Either find the door, leave the mecha, and walk out on foot.
Or destroy the chrysalid, wherever the Mother Entity hides, it will rage due to their destructive actions.
Broadcast restored, Admiral Bai was aware of Ji Heng’s situation.
"Use subspace for isolation, whose idea was this, brilliant." Admiral Bai gritted his teeth; from the moment Ji Heng disappeared, he had already boarded the reserve support fleet heading over.
Only he can deal with the Mother Entity, additionally with artificial intelligence assisting out of subspace.
Following the scenario reported by Ji Heng, subspace exit under control.
"Notify support fleets 5 and 10, aim towards the repair room direction, perform directional disassembly, no matter how, give me a hole for mecha entry and exit within ten minutes."
The support fleet commander: "..."
If it were so easy to dig tunnels beneath Mechanical Planet, people wouldn’t be tasked with such a mission.
Admiral Bai reminded: "The shortest diameter leading to the repair room is at the ejection exit, ten minutes should be achievable."
Previously, tunnels weren’t dug fearing resource waste; breaking through without any gain.
With the Insect Man Nest premise, no matter the energy expense, the thoroughfare must be opened.
Ji Heng’s task was no longer important, Admiral Bai was considering canceling.
The secretary whispered in Admiral Bai’s ear: "Admiral Yi and Admiral Ning requested to make all efforts to preserve the custom mecha, at no cost."
Are they insane? Is this forcing Ji Heng to complete the task?
Outside, tunnel excavation could easily destroy the inside mecha, meaning before completing excavation, the mecha must be recovered well.
"Does that Mecha Designer have an impressive background?" Admiral Bai found it ridiculous, even when executing a task, context matters, with two youngsters inside unable to get out, post-task completion on what paths to take.
Not being able to leave, how can it be ensured that the mecha is brought out.
