Although the deed in Carlo's mouth was very vague, Su Xiao still caught it accurately.
He was not surprised, or he had long thought that old Barr knew his identity.
When he first came into contact with old Barr, Su Xiao noticed a situation. The other party must have come into contact with humans, and they had come into contact more than once.
This island was called Devour Island. There were no traces of human civilization on the island, only red skin natives, but old Barr knew the human language, and there must be something hidden.
In other words, there was an essential difference between Devour Island and the derivative world. The derivative world was completely controlled by the reincarnation paradise and could reset the timeline.
Devour Island was different. The reincarnation paradise only had the right to dabble in this place. It did not have too strong control and could not reset the timeline.
Therefore, it was very likely that Old Baal had contacted many contractors. After all, the Yosenman tribe lived on Devour Island, and the contractors were only passers-by here.
If he thought about it like this, then the existence of Devour Island was somewhat terrifying. After the arrival of batches of contractors, there was still not much change here, and the original order was still maintained.
...
The atmosphere in the stone house was a bit awkward. Old Baal's turbid eyes glanced at Carlo.
The blank expression on Carlo's face split into a smile, not explaining anything.
"Cough ---, where were we just talking about?"
Old Baal coughed to ease the awkwardness.
"Go deep into the insect nest."
Su Xiao did not want to dwell on the issues of contractors. Old Baal had already confirmed that he had ulterior motives, but he was not being kind. The two sides were about the same. They were not good people.
However, from the conversation just now, Su Xiao found out that Carlo did not seem to be Old Baal's subordinate.
The relationship between the two was more like equal than superior and subordinate. Old Baa; even showed the intention of taking care of Carlo.
"Yes, deep into the insect nest."
The topic changed. Old Baal took out a crude map. This map was considered a national treasure level in the Yosenman Tribe.
"The main battlefield between us and the insect race is here."
Old Baal pointed at a spot on the map. It was a large plain.
"This is our current location."
Old Baal pointed at where the Yosenman tribe had landed on the map.
"This is the location of the Zerg."
Old Baal pointed at the location of a forest three mountains away from the Assenman Tribe.
"What are these black dots around the Zerg?"
Su Xiao looked at the area around the Zerg.
"This is the explosion area."
"The explosion area?"
Su Xiao was slightly surprised.
Old Baal lowered his eyes and seemed to think of some bad memories. He said in a low voice, "Yes, the explosion area, where you will die if you step wrong. This is the only way to enter the nest."
The symbol of the nest on the map was a black skull. Around the skull, it was full of black dots representing the explosion area.
"The Zerg have a soldier type called the explosive ants. They will hide on the ground and only reveal their heads. If you step on their heads, pray for your good luck.
If it is a new explosive ant, it will explode immediately after being stepped on. If it is an explosive ant that has existed for more than a week, as long as you do not move your feet, it will not explode. This thing will only survive for a month at most."
After listening to the introduction of Old Baal, Su Xiao felt that this explosive ant was a biological landmine.
The new explosive ants had a keen sense of perception, and they would explode when they stepped on it. For more than a week, the explosive ants hiding underground were not so sharp.
"Is it very powerful?"
"It's very big. At least I can kill you and me."
Old Baal continued to describe his plan.
"After the war begins, we'll go around here."
Old Baal pointed to a mountain behind the Zerg.
"After that, we passed through the explosion area. After passing through the explosion area, we still need to pay attention to the surveillance of the Flying Mantis.
It is a kind of insect that can fly and spray strong acid, but the number is rare..."
Su Xiao raised his hand and interrupted Old Baal.
"After passing through the explosion area, that compass belongs to me."
Su Xiao's request made Old Baal hesitate.
"No, I have to get the renewal egg."
"Then the cooperation ends here."
Su Xiao did not hesitate to get up and walk out. It might be too late if Old Baal obtained the so-called Regeneration Egg.
"Wait."
Old Baal pondered.
"No problem."
Carlo, who had always been silent, spoke.
Carlo did not have a strong sense of presence. If he had not taken the initiative to speak, no one would have noticed him. He was like a potted plant.
At first, people might have glanced at him, but they would not have noticed him after that.
Su Xiao had already walked to the door of the stone house and stopped.
"After passing through the explosion area, the compass belongs to you."
After the deal was completed, Su Xiao, Old Baal, and Carlo went deep into the insect nest. After passing through the explosion area, Old Baal handed over the compass.
Although the deal was completed, Su Xiao was not relaxed in his heart.
Old Baal surprised him. His bottom line was to obtain the compass after entering the bug nest.
He was determined to obtain the compass. Without the compass, he would not be able to find the cliff stone bridge quickly.
If he could not find the cliff stone bridge, he would not be able to leave the Red Earth Region.
"When are we leaving?"
While the three of them were negotiating, the large army outside had already set out. Old Baal's fourth son led this war.
"Let's go now."
The route and action plan had already been planned, but the plan could not keep up with the changes. Old Baal's plan was mostly to adapt to the situation.
"The Regeneration Egg is next to the Zerg Queen. Remember, don't be seduced by her."
"Huh?"
Su Xiao looked at Old Baal in confusion.
"You will understand when you see the Zerg Queen, that kind of tempting feeling..."
Old Baal said no more, and several people quickly left the Yosenman tribe.
The distance between the Yosenman Tribe and the Zerg was not close, but the three people had their ways of traveling.
Carlo and Old Baal each rode a creature similar to a horse. This creature was called the hoof, a predatory animal, and had great endurance. After taming it, it was a very good tool to travel.
The three people had to circle a big circle around the main battlefield and enter the nest from the back of the nest.
After circling for two hours, Su Xiao arrived at a wetland, the rear of the Zerg.
In the distance, there was a faint sound of shouting and killing, and the Yosenman Tribe and the Zerg had already fought.
A faint fishy sweet smell came. Looking into the distance, several oval-shaped buildings came into view.
These buildings were all green. If one looked closely, one would find that these buildings were trembling slightly, and blood vessels could be vaguely seen on the surface.
There were five insect nests, one big and four small.
The small one had a diameter of about ten meters. The largest insect nest was like a castle. It was more than ten meters high and covered an area about the size of a football field.
"We are going deep into the largest insect nest. The eggs are there."
Old Baal jumped down from the back of the hooves and looked at the insect nest.
The five bug nests all had their functions. The biggest one was the queen's residence, called the mother nest. Many sting scorpions or higher insects were protecting the queen.
The remaining four bug nests were: ovum pool (for violent soldiers), biological detection organization (alert), anti-air tower (for air units), and evolution site (producing high-level insects).
Old Baal's goal was to invade the mother's nest and seize the eggs.
However, the three of them were still a distance away from the bug nest, and they needed to pass through the explosion area first.
