Chapter 376 Seeing Too Much
Mes stood not far away with a painful expression on his face. He looked at his broken spider leg and looked at Tan Jing with a ferocious look. The muscles on his mouth and face kept twitching.
"Are you crazy?!"
Mes roared angrily, and looked at Tan Jing with a fierce look.
But at this moment, Tan Jing seemed not to hear it. He looked at his fist wrapped in flames and pressed heavily on the ground, and his eyes kept trembling.
"Still... still can't attack him... why...?"
Tan Jing whispered in his mouth, and his figure slowly stood up.
Li Ming was also surprised to see this scene, but he was relieved in his heart. This further showed that those consciousness pills played a huge role.
Thinking of this, Li Ming raised his head slightly and looked at the sky.
And Cottrell was angry, moved his body, and leaped down from the air.
‘Pah, pah’
With two light sounds, Cottrell landed in front of Mace and McCall. He looked at Li Ming, then at Tan Jing, and said, “Tan Jing… do you know what you are doing? Are you… going to betray me?”
Tan Jing was startled when she heard this, and quickly looked at Cottrell, her mouth slightly opened, and she was about to say something loudly but didn’t speak, just said in a low voice: “No… no…”
The voice was very low, but Cottrell heard it very clearly, and his eyes returned to Li Ming and said, “Then kill him!”
When Tan Jing heard this order, her body turned to Li Ming, but she couldn’t move her hands after just one look at Li Ming’s face, as if there was a subconscious in her mind, constantly telling herself: Don’t do anything to him, don’t do anything to him.
Looking at Li Ming, Tan Jing shook her head and couldn’t help saying, “I… I can’t do anything.”
Cottrell was immediately furious, and the look in his eyes instantly became sinister, and he suddenly raised his left hand and grabbed Tan Jing in the air.
‘Zizizizi…’
A strange sound came from Tan Jing’s back, and suddenly red stripes spread from Tan Jing’s back. The stripes began to spread from the surface of her flesh, and in just a few seconds, the stripes spread to Tan Jing’s whole body.
Her hands, exposed legs, and innocent face were all covered with stripes.
The stripes were red and looked like lightning in the sky. As soon as they appeared, Tan Jing fell to the ground with a painful groan.
Li Ming was shocked when he saw this. Even with his discerning eyes, he couldn’t see what ability Cottrell used, but when he turned his eyes to Tan Jing lying on the ground, he immediately found something strange.
With his discerning eyes, Li Ming had already seen the injuries on Tan Jing’s body. On the left side of Tan Jing’s back, directly opposite the heart, a red poison energy point appeared, and all the stripes on the body spread from that point.
All the places where the stripes reached were corroded by the poison energy. It was under the effect of the poison energy that Tan Jing fell directly. Although the poison energy spread all over Tan Jing's body in an instant, it was only on the surface of the body. The poison energy in the body was also spreading little by little, but the speed was slow. But it was obvious that if it spread like this, Tan Jing would definitely die.
Seeing this, Li Ming's eyes turned and looked at Cottrell.
Cottrell was calm, as if it was just a common thing.
"The power of the death medicine..."
Li Ming whispered.
Cottrell smiled and said, "This is the result of betraying me."
'Humph...'
Li Ming snorted, looked at Cottrell, then looked at Mays and McCall behind him, and said, "Mayo, you can kill Tan Jing cruelly because she is a girl."
Cottrell's eyes suddenly became serious. After staring at Li Ming for a few seconds, he raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Your eyes are really annoying."
"Is it because you have seen too much?"
Li Ming looked back at him and said.
Cottrell regained his composure and said, "The more you see, the more dangerous it is. If you can see further, maybe you can survive..."
Li Ming smiled slightly, took two steps forward to Tan Jing's side, but looked at Mace and McCall, and said, "The one called Mace is your most successful experiment, transferring the human's 'soul' to the body of the wild beast, this is really an amazing experiment."
"So...there is McCall, a silicon-based life, and Tan Jing, an aerospace civilization."
Li Ming's eyes kept looking at the three people opposite.
Hearing what Li Ming said, Mace and McCall looked at each other in confusion. The two were obviously bewitched by Cottrell's words and fell to this point today, but they didn't know why.
Li Ming continued, "With Mace as a successful experiment, you began to prepare a container for your soul. McCall, a silicon-based life, and Tan Jing, a space civilization, are indeed geniuses. After all, silicon-based life and space civilization are rare." "It's a pity that Tan Jing is a woman, but you didn't want to waste this space civilization, so you cultivated her into your own combat power. Now she has lost her effect on you, so... you killed her without hesitation." As he said this, Li Ming looked at the motionless body of Tan Jing in front of him. After hearing what Li Ming said, Mace and McCall's emotions fluctuated a little. They looked at each other for a while, and then looked at Cottrell. But Cottrell just stared at Li Ming fiercely without saying a word. Li Ming raised his head, looked at the opposite side, and continued, "It seems that McCall, who has a silicon-based life form, is your only choice to inherit the 'soul'."
McCall couldn't help but move when he heard this, his eyes turned slightly, and he looked at Cottrell. Not only McCall, but also Mace was hesitant at this moment.
Li Minghui could clearly see the change in the two people's moods, and this was exactly Li Ming's purpose. Taking advantage of the other party's confusion, Li Ming's right hand suddenly reached down and grabbed Tan's body on the ground. Jing hugged him and at the same time flicked his left hand and threw a metal ball out.
Seeing that Li Ming was about to run, Cottrell's eyes suddenly widened a bit, and he aimed his right hand at Li Ming and waved it.
'boom! ’
There was a muffled sound, and a ball of transparent liquid the size of a fist flew out. Li Ming turned sideways to avoid it, and at the same time continued to run deeper into the street.
Cottrell was furious, glanced at Mace and McCall beside him, and sternly scolded: "What are you doing standing still? Chase!"
Only then did the two of them react, but just as they were about to give chase, the metal ball thrown by Li Ming before leaving rolled to the ground.
Mace and McCall paused one after another and turned their attention to the metal ball, but both of them frowned and didn't know what it was. However, Cottrell's expression changed drastically and he blurted out: "This is... [Insect] hole〕?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the metal ball suddenly exploded with a 'bang' sound, and the black mist spurted out instantly. In almost the blink of an eye, more than a dozen buildings around him were enveloped by it. The spread of this black mist was really astonishing. .
Not only Cottrell and others, but also Li Ming did not expect this object to be so powerful, and Li Ming's figure was almost instantly swallowed up by it.
[Insect Lair] is actually the Zerg on some special planets, and Li Ming understands and recognizes it in the same way. However, after Cottrell's death potion ability, a large number of Zerg were controlled by it.
Li Ming found some information related to this from Cottrell's mind and the Death Potion Alchemy Star Book. Cottrell first found the planet with the zerg, and then put his own medicine into the planet to act as the zerg. After being infected, these bugs are made into capsules [insect lairs].
Judging from the mission Cottrell originally assigned to Brendan, the power of a [worm hole] is enough to wipe out a planet with a low-level civilization.
Brendan's mission is to place insect nests to quickly occupy the world of low-level civilizations.
After killing Brendan, Li Ming took away the star bag from his body, which naturally included the insect hole. If he wanted to escape now, it would be better to release the insect hole so that he could escape in the chaos.
The insects in the insect den are extremely ferocious, and they are completely unconscious creatures. In their eyes, all other life forms are enemies!
The black fog spreads rapidly, spreading like a plague in the construction area, and at an extremely fast speed. In the originally dark night, coupled with the black fog, going deep into it is like entering an absolutely dark night, and one can only act with consciousness.
