Chapter 785: Chapter 785: Viper Worm
Suddenly ——
Baby face suddenly tensed up, "Evacuate!"
"Evacuate quickly!"
His words were directly conveyed to Ji You, the team captain. When Ji You received the ssage, though she couldn’t understand what had happened, still!
Ji You imdiately ordered, "Tighten the formation, everyone gather around , prepare to return imdiately!"
Chu Jiaojiao was startled: "What’s the situation?"
Everyone moved quickly, imdiately closing the distance and gathering around Ji You.
Ji You narrowed her eyes and said, "Danger is approaching."
Zhang Ye exclaid: "What?"
Lou smacked his lips: "Impossible, right?"
Xuzhou furrowed his brows: "Within a radius of 10 light years, I have thoroughly searched and confird there are no issues."
Shen Changqing and Yue Qiyuan, both with S-level ntal power, remained silent. They imdiately spread out their Spiritual Nets to search.
However ——
They found nothing.
All around was as calm as the beginning, showing no hint of danger.
The expressions of Shen Changqing and Yue Qiyuan instantly tightened; they were not convinced and searched again.
Seeing the expression of his younger brother, Yue Qiguang sensed that the situation was not optimistic: "What’s going on? Is a large number of Star Beasts approaching?"
After the second round of searching with Spiritual Silk, Yue Qiyuan shook his head, his face grave: "Can’t detect anything."
Yue Qiguang turned toward Shen Changqing, who also shook his head: "I can’t detect anything either."
Yue Qiguang tugged at his hair: "Damn! Could it be that the front lines have been breached?" This was not a good guess.
Upon hearing Yue Qiguang’s comnt, others imdiately cursed: "Crows mouth, shut up!"
Yue Qiguang: "..."
A hint of worry flashed in everyone’s eyes.
Ji You said: "It’s not that."
Everyone: "Huh?"
Ji You stared intently around her, her voice firm, she said: "The danger is very close."
Everyone: "!!!"
Sheng Qingyan, who had been appearing sowhat lethargic, suddenly perked up, and banished all traces of drowsiness, becoming more serious than ever, releasing his Spiritual Silk without holding back.
Nothing was found.
Sheng Qingyan furrowed his brows and said, "This is bad, I really have a bad feeling that a major disaster is looming."
Ji You was fully alert, saying, "What exactly the danger is, remains unknown. Where it cos from, also remains unknown, so — stay 120,000% alert!"
Not knowing anything, that was the most troubleso part.
As everyone conversed, their movents didn’t stop; after quickly gathering with Ji You and others, without needing instructions, everyone perked up and kept checking for any danger.
After the team consolidated, they quickly executed the Space Station Commander’s orders to return swiftly.
Ji You asked, "Senior, may I ask what is the danger?"
Baby face pressed his lips together, trying to maintain calm and composure in his voice, he said, "Preliminarily, it is considered that a Viper Worm has infiltrated within a 5 light-year radius outside the Space Station."
Ji You’s pupils contracted: "Viper Worm?"
Chu Jiaojiao and others: "!!!"
Yue Qiguang exclaid, "Damn! Are you serious?"
After enrolling in Lanyue Star Military Academy, a mandatory course for everyone is called "Star Beast Encyclopedia," which includes all the Star Beasts discovered and recorded by humankind so far, including the Viper Worm.
The Viper Worm is an amphibious arthropod Star Beast, with a body length of at least 100 ters. High-level ones can even reach the size of a kiloter. They sowhat resemble a centipede, with legs on each segnt, but they are also covered in toxic spines which can cause imdiate death in humans if ingested in excess.
But !!!
The terrifying part about Viper Worms isn’t just this—within their sebum, they secrete a substance that grants them invisibility, making them nearly impossible for the human eye to see! Many human detection devices also struggle to find them, only detectors made from certain rare and expensive materials can sense the spiritual fluctuations of Viper Worms.
This invisibility substance on the Viper Worms is not only useful for them but, once extracted, can also be applied to chas, machinery, spaceships, and Starships. However, due to the difficulty in harvesting this material, it is currently only used in so highly sophisticated products.
For example, the cha Sheng Qingyan drove in the Star Network competition—Ghost Stab—its invisibility function stems from the invisibility substance in Viper Worm’s sebum.
...
It should be ntioned that Viper Worms are ferocious by nature. From each clutch of eggs laid by the sa mother, the hatched juveniles must engage in mutual slaughter, devouring each other to enhance their survival capabilities. Only two or three, or even just one, survive out of a brood of hatchlings, making this species extrely rare.
But precisely because of this brutal survival thod, each Viper Worm is incredibly strong and dangerous. They are twice as dangerous as other Star Beasts of the sa level—an ominous thought indeed...
Upon hearing baby face’s statent, Ji You felt a storm brewing in her heart:
"Really?
This unlucky?
To encounter a Viper Worm, a creature as rare as pandas in the world of Star Beasts?"
Ji You straightened her face and told her teammates, "Stay calm, stay calm, after this fight, let’s all go buy a lottery ticket together."
With this kind of lousy luck, Ji You believed it, even if the prize was 500 million credit points.
Upon hearing this, the others nodded in agreent, "Let’s do it!"
"Absolutely!"
"Forget buying a lottery ticket, I even want to burn so incense to pray for our ancestor’s protection."
"You unfaithful descendant, your ancestors probably got so annoyed by you that they don’t even want to deal with you anymore; you better pray for your own fortune."
...
The situation was very dangerous, but the atmosphere on the scene was relatively light.
The group retreated while staying alert.
Ji You raised her hand and commanded, "Shen Changqing, Yue Qiyuan, Sheng Qingyan, and myself, the four of us will handle the reconnaissance; the rest of you stay on high alert, and if anything looks off, don’t hesitate, just start firing!"
Ji You gave the order.
anwhile, baby face said, "The Viper Worm has breached our defenses and sneaked in; currently, its whereabouts are mysterious; the Space Station is searching fully. Don’t be careless, retreat towards the Space Station first."
"Attention, 10 seconds ago, a Viper Worm was spotted at 13 degrees east."
"5 seconds ago, a Viper Worm appeared in the southwest corner!"
"..."
Due to their ability to turn invisible, the Eagle Space Station only had two detection devices capable of tracking the Viper Worm’s movents. However, constantly moving at high speed and in the vast expanse of space, two detectors were far from enough.
After baby face finished speaking, a pair of delicate eyebrows furrowed tightly.
Nearby, the expressions of several veteran soldiers also turned grim:
"How did a Viper Worm get in here?"
"This is indeed a serious issue; how could Viper Worms be in this area? There is nothing here that Viper Worms like."
"This is troubleso."
"So—what are we going to do about our cubs?"
