"What is going on here …"
In the darkness, a dozen Ershi Min and a spy were … moving slowly under a high metal wall.
They all turned their eyes to a place that was not so dark, the entrance to the base.
The entrance to the second base was open, and light was shining from inside.
However, if one looked inside, they would see that the light was not coming from the lighting equipment inside. In fact, all the buildings and equipment in the base that could light up were all turned off.
And the thing that was glowing in the base was something that looked like mounds of dirt. The height of these mounds of dirt was … 1 to 2 meters, and at the top of them was a golden object that was glowing brilliantly. These mounds of dirt were everywhere in the base, and this scene was very … strange for the people of Ershi.
"I can't get in touch …" The manager stuffed the phone into his waist with a disappointed expression. "I don't know if there is anyone else in the base."
"What is with those mounds of earth?" One of the Ershi Min soldiers asked. "I have never seen anything like this before …"
"That is a golden egg." The bright-colored Ershi Min continued. "That is also an experimental organism … An idiot in the laboratory suddenly came up with an idea to create living gold."
"Living gold?" The soldier asked in surprise. "What is that?"
"There is a kind of organism's egg here. The embryo inside will shine when it grows." The bright-colored Ershi Min said. "An idiot in the laboratory developed … a kind of drug. Injecting this drug will make the egg shine brighter. It will not hatch for a long time, but it will keep the egg alive and will not die. The purpose of this research is to sell this egg on the market …"
"There is an organism's egg that can shine?" The soldier asked. "Aren't glowing eggs easy to eat?"
"The original purpose of this kind of organism is for the eggs to be eaten." The bright-colored Ershi Min said. "This way, the hatchlings will have food to eat when they are born. They are a kind of parasitic animal. Because of this, it is easy for the eggs to not hatch for a long time."
"You did something like this …" The manager was shocked. "What happened to the eggs?"
"We didn't do it, it was an idiot in the laboratory who did it." The bright-colored Ershi Min said. "As for these eggs, there was a batch that was going to be shipped to the top to be sold, but during the shipment … they were attacked and never reproduced again."
This bright-colored Ershi Min seemed to know a lot about the laboratory. Lin had a feeling that it had a deep connection with the place.
"Then why are the eggs here?" The manager asked. "What are those mounds of earth?"
"I don't know, maybe they were moved here." The Yan Ershi citizen said, "After the eggs were attacked, they all disappeared. They might have been taken away by some other creatures …"
"Beep Beep!"
Before it could finish, a sound echoed through the base. Lin and the Ershi people saw many … feathered, four-limbed creatures appearing around the mounds of dirt.
"It's Feather Teeth!" The chief steward said, "Could it be that the eggs and the mound were brought by them? How did they invade this base? "
"Beep beep beep beep beep!" More and more feathered teeth appeared around the mound. Rin noticed that they looked like … birds, including their heads, bodies, and feet. However, their upper limbs were more similar to Ershi Min's hands. They had three fingers and could nimbly grab things, but they did not seem to be able to fly. They jumped around the mound and screamed. Rin noticed that they were very excited.
"Alright, you're finally here."
At this moment, Lin heard … Ershi Min's voice.
The door of the largest building in the base opened and a group of Ershi Min walked out. Lin noticed that the one leading the group … the Ershi Min was dressed very strangely. It was covered in feathers and had a sharp mask on its head, as if it was imitating the teeth of a feather. As for the other Ershi Min beside it, they were wearing normal combat uniforms and holding weapons in their hands.
"The base is fine! They're still here! "A soldier said as he prepared to leave, but was stopped by the supervisor.
"Wait, the situation is very strange …" The chief said, "Let's take a look before we decide."
"Beep beep!" The feather wearing Ershi Min imitated the feathered teeth and called out a few words, then spoke in normal Ershi: "Aren't you bringing a bit too few eggs this time? I can't give you the promised reward."
"Beep beep beep!" The leader of the feathered teeth also walked up to it and called out continuously. At the same time, a group of feathered teeth dragged a very long object over.
"This is …" Er Shemin, who was acting as a character, immediately became excited when he saw this. This was because the Feathered Fangs were dragging over a black object. Lin believed that … this should be the thorn of the sea urchin from before, but it wasn't exactly the same. This one was smaller.
"Not bad, you actually managed to get your hands on something like this." The Ershi Min said: "If that's the case, I have no choice but to give you the promised reward. Hey, bring the apples over here!"
While it was talking, Lin saw a group of Ershi Min soldiers moving boxes of red fruits over, each box containing more than a dozen. They stacked the boxes in front of the feathered teeth.
"As we agreed, one egg for one box of apples. As for this thorn, I'll trade it with two boxes of apples. How about that?"
"Beep beep beep beep!" The feathered teeth seemed to be extremely excited when they heard this. They immediately agreed to this request. The leader of the feathered teeth beeped a few times, and the other feathered teeth immediately snatched up all the apples and ran out of the base, leaving only the golden eggs and the thorn there.
"They're … actually making a deal with the feathered teeth?"
The chief and the Ershi Min who were peeking outside the door were all stunned. The chief was the first to react … He immediately ran out and walked through the door.
"Hey! You guys! "
The soldiers who were retrieving the golden eggs in the second base were all shocked, and the feathered Ershi Min was also stunned. After seeing that it was the chief, he said: "Hey, Louis, why are you here?"
"Hey what!" The chief said angrily: "Jack, why are you making a deal with them?"
