Zheng jumped. The others couldn’t use their weapons so they were fragile in front of this tanker bug. This bug appeared quite suddenly. Lan had been monitoring the underground the whole time. Yet she didn’t discover this tanker bug. Zheng also didn’t sense it as he was connected in soul link the whole time. Which meant this bug was masked by another psyche force user. It was an attack by the other team!
Zheng ran as he said in urgency. “Lan, mask this whole group even if it reduces your scan range. F*ck, we were too careless. They have been waiting for us to put down our weapons!”
“We were indeed careless… We had been holding our weapons so they didn’t bother masking the bugs even when they knew of our location. The bugs weren’t a threat to us unless they came in hundreds of hopper bugs. So they waited for us to merge into this group and masked the bugs that were going to attack us. Good strategy…” Xuan murmured.
