into the sheath

The ladder descended a second time.

Ever since the accident, Tang Heng has been guarding the cabin door, not paying attention to Tisuo's condition, but only staring at Jiang Feng.

Then, perhaps because he was uncomfortable being watched, he saw Jiang Feng frowning rarely.

"Let's go." Jiang Feng interrupted Tang Heng's reverie.

Tang Heng hurriedly responded, and then hurriedly walked in front of Jiang Feng

When he stepped down the first step, he lightly said: [Let me go ahead, so that if something happens, I can still protect you; even if the target is me, my reaction will be faster than yours anyway. ]

With that said, Tang Heng looked up at Jiang Feng's expression again, but perhaps the brightness in the cabin was dimmed, and the guide's expression was dim and unclear, only the pair of pupils reflected faint light, like two stars covered by clouds and mist .

Tang Heng didn't wait for Jiang Feng's response until all the staff safely landed on the roof.

They landed on the roof of a three-story building, which was almost the only building nearby.

Tang Heng glanced down a few times as he descended the ladder rope.

Under the dark night, something could still be vaguely seen moving.Perhaps it was because it was detected by the spiritual power, the outline of each bug was very clear, and they were crowded together layer by layer, forming a turbulent brown wave.There is something small that shines a green light in the gap, twinkling, like a lighthouse seen from a distance in the thick fog.

[That's a micro-blocker. ] Sensing Tang Heng's line of sight, Jiang Feng explained, [In order to provide a landing platform, some will be placed around the selected location in advance, which can make the Zerg minimally notice it, but it can only have a short-term effect. ]

Tang Heng withdrew his eyes from looking downstairs again, and asked again: [How long will it last? ]

[Up to five hours. ]

Hearing this, Tang Heng couldn't help but glanced at the time - it was just after eleven o'clock, and there was still a long way to go before dawn.

Tang Heng felt his mood suddenly sink.He didn't ask any more questions.

In addition to Jiang Feng, there are more than a dozen guides here, almost half the number of sentries.

Tang Heng watched silently.

Without too many verbal orders, the queue had dispersed on its own, and the man was standing at the forefront, with his back to him, almost leaving into the night.

As if feeling something, the person at the focus of his line of sight turned his head and gave him a glance.

The sentinel didn't see the meaning of that look clearly, but just stood there in a daze.He felt as if he had discovered something, and he seemed to have discovered nothing.

In the next second, Tang Heng was shocked suddenly.

The vast spiritual power swayed around Jiang Feng, like a boulder smashed into a deep pool, and the splashed waves rippled down to the ground.At this moment, the world was silent, and the noisy mental noise in the sentinel's ears disappeared, leaving only the insignificant tendency of the wind blowing over the sand and ruins.In the distance, a large machine rumbled, and the tinnitus was ethereal like hallucinations.

Darkness is excellent concealment.

Tang Heng didn't notice the change at first, but after a while, he vaguely noticed something different.

There were still dense brown bugs surging around the building, but a little further away, it was already a different scene.It was as if a comb had been brushed over and over again, and with each stroke, the black in the brown became more apparent.Those black worms appeared in pieces, stagnated for a moment, and then fell to the ground again, like a dark tide, rushing to the only reef in the sea wave after wave...

At this moment, Tang Heng's mind went blank.He opened his eyes wide and stood still, the scene in front of him turned upside down, but the image that emerged in his mind was the appearance of Jiang Feng looking at him panting slightly after kissing him not long ago.

The boundary between the iris and the pupil could not be seen in those eyes, only filled with the night, the coquettish night that enveloped everything in the world.

Once so.

The gaze didn't last long.

"Eh. New here."

A rough voice sounded.When the man was about to touch his wrist, Tang Heng suddenly turned sideways, subconsciously turned his hand away, and then bullied him... Then, Tang Heng stopped his movements.

The person who came was a fellow sentinel, and he was also among the people who stayed behind the cushion in the cabin just now.

Tang Heng let go of his hand.He looked at this bearded face and asked in a bad tone, "What's the matter?"

"Ah Cheng is gone, I want to ask if you can fill his place later."

"Acheng?"

The man explained: "The guide died in front of his eyes and couldn't think about it. The one who jumped down with the bug."

Since Wu Tianjun had plotted against him before, Tang Heng instinctively did not believe his words.Seeing that Tang Heng was silent and did not respond, the man said again: "I just came to say hello first. After more than four hours, you still have to go to guard."

Tang Heng probably also guessed the meaning of his words.

They have to stay here until dawn, and the blocker can only last more than half of the time, how to spend the rest?Can only rely on manpower to guard.

Tang Heng clenched the short knife by his side, "Let's talk about it."

The man nodded without pressing, "It's fine. You have to inform your guide when the time comes." After a pause, he asked cautiously, "It should be all right? I see you There is a regular partner."

Tang Heng responded vaguely.

The man followed his line of sight and saw the guides not far away, thought it was one of them, so he didn't ask any more questions.

In fact, because this attack method consumes a lot of energy for the guides, they are rotated.Someone is replaced every 10 minutes, and the only constant is the chief guide who has been standing at the front, like a flag, like an unshakable benchmark.

One hour.

Two hours.

Three hours……

The digital clock beats with precision.But at the moment when the time changed to two o'clock, the floor under his feet suddenly shook violently.

"Bam—"

Another shock.

Then there was a scalp-numbing rustling sound.That's the sound of insects gnawing on the wall.

Everyone's face changed.

—It's only been three hours!
