“What are you doing?”

Dodging Da Yao’s sudden laser gun attack, Charlie could smell the singed hair at his temples. He turned his head again, and this time Da Yao’s gun was aimed directly at him, firing a series of shots.

Charlie dodged awkwardly, tumbling to avoid them.

Da Yao didn’t have the habit of stopping without speaking. She fired as she asked, “Two escape pods, why didn’t you ask if I had any companions?”

“I came over and only saw you. I assumed it was just you. Are there any other players?”

“So, isn’t it a little late to ask that? Asking if there are other players now? Or are you already sure that I’m the only player left on this starship?”

With that, Da Yao’s laser gun fired directly at the space between his eyebrows. But instead of the bloody scene of a head being pierced, the skin she shot at suddenly disappeared, revealing dark purple skin with a metallic sheen.

Charlie’s eyes also changed rapidly, the whites quickly turning black and bulging out of their sockets, looking very similar to insect eyes.

[Holy crap!!!!]

[Oh my god!!!!]

[It really is a Zerg!!!]

[He’s finally revealed his true colors!]

[Nice shot!]

Exposed, Charlie stopped pretending. He didn’t even bother with the remaining human skin. His body swelled, instantly transforming into a 2.5-meter-tall humanoid purple bug, blocking the already narrow passage.

At the same time, the starship’s alarm suddenly blared.

[Warning! Zerg invasion! Warning! Zerg invasion!]

It wasn’t until Charlie revealed his true form that the starship’s reorganization sensing system sounded. Immediately afterward, the sounds of chaotic gunfire and screams came from elsewhere.

Contrary to what Charlie had said, there weren’t Zergs everywhere. Some of the human staff were still busy with their work until the alarm sounded, at which point they naturally went on alert.

But even so, the sudden betrayal of colleagues they had been working with day and night caught many off guard, and the number of humans on the starship rapidly decreased.

On her way to find Da Yao, Mingmei even rescued two human NPCs.

“Go to the central control room! Quick!”

The staff NPC, rescued by Mingmei, hadn’t recovered from his shock when he thought of the central control room and grabbed Mingmei’s calf.

Mingmei looked down, meeting the staff NPC’s gaze.

Mingmei: 0.0?

Let go, I have things to do.

Staff NPC: QAQ Boss, save me! We can’t handle what’s coming next!

Please help QvQ!

Mingmei sighed helplessly as she looked at the other party, who looked like they wouldn’t let go unless she agreed. Mingmei suddenly felt disgusted with her own tendency to help when she saw injustice!

If she could do it over, she’d choose to go the other way.

Mingmei thought in a very Ah Q-like way, since the escape pods really couldn’t be used, it was indeed necessary to save the starship they were on now!

Yes, she still had to go to the central control room.

If Da Yao couldn’t defeat that player and ultimately failed, she could always go back and kill that Zerg player.

Having a real player play a Zerg mole, wouldn’t the other party have to hurry up and kick the bucket after completing their mission?

So, Mingmei changed direction and took the staff NPCs to the central control room. But upon arriving, they found that it had already become a Zerg dance hall.

The moment the control room door opened, there were no human corpses from the expected chaotic battle. Instead, there were Zergs who had stopped pretending after the alarm sounded and were partying in the control room in their bug bodies.

She never expected the Zerg density in the central control room to be so high.

Mingmei: o.0?

Zergs: o.o!

No wonder the entire starship’s signal was blocked and no one noticed.

With the central control room full of Zergs, who would care if the signal was good or not!

Thus, Ming, the salted fish, Mei was forced to start a hell-level 1vN battle due to a severe shortage of manpower!

Gui Gui, who had been very worried about its host, realized something after seeing Mingmei’s stable performance.

Forget it, now that the filter is broken, let it be _(：3」∠)_

Its host is awesome!

She doesn’t have to be so conflicted about choosing games for her to enter in the future, right?

Meanwhile, Lu Xiaoyao discovered the biggest secret of the hidden Zergs—the problem of hiding the insect core.

The hidden Zergs lurking in Sigma Fortress were a new type of Zerg born from the Zerg Queen!

From birth, they were high-level Zergs and had the ability to transform into human form. When they transformed into humans, the insect core in their bodies would shatter and scatter throughout their bodies.

It was only when they transformed into Zergs again that the insect core would reunite into a whole.

Both Charlie, who deliberately revealed this secret, and Da Yao, who heard this secret, were shocked. How could there be such Zergs?

[What the heck! What is this! These bugs are cheating!]

[No wonder! No wonder they can’t detect the Zergs! These new Zergs actually have such an ability!]

[So hard to guard against!]

[If this is true, how do you check for hidden Zergs mixed in with humans? You can’t just grab everyone you suspect and shoot them with a laser gun to make them expose themselves, right?]

[LOL, line them up and use lasers to verify their identities.]

[If this is true, and the game company dares to release it like this, does it mean the higher-ups already have a way to identify them?]

[Hey! The person in front makes sense!]

[Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but really, seeing the game company being so “unscrupulous,” I really suspect the Imperial Military is about to make a big move.]

Mingmei, who was distracted by the livestream and knew about this, had already killed all the Zergs in the control room. Disgusted by the dirt on her body, Mingmei turned her head to look at the two NPCs who were already tidying up the control room.

Compared to before, when these two were trash and only knew how to stand by her side shouting 666, now, when it came to technical issues, the roles were immediately reversed.

It was Mingmei’s turn to shout 666, “Old iron, give it your all!”

At this time, they quickly restored the starship’s external communication function, and then dialed the signal to Sigma Base again to prepare a report.

Just then, Mingmei suddenly reached out to stop them.

“What’s wrong?”

The two were puzzled and looked at Mingmei with confusion.

“There are Zergs on the starship. Do you think there won’t be Zergs in the base? If we send a message directly, will it expose us, or perhaps tell the Zergs hidden among us that they’ve been exposed?”

Now it was the two’s turn to be dumbfounded.

“Then… then are we not going to notify them?” The two NPCs were at a loss.

“Besides the base starship command, who else can you contact at the highest level? Can you contact Vice Commander Mei?”

However, Mingmei’s question didn’t get a satisfactory answer.

Mingmei’s heart suddenly stirred. She opened her communicator, which had only one person’s name on it—Mu Feize.

Mu Chen, Mu Feize, just different names, but the same surname.

Mingmei subconsciously wondered if this “Mu Feize” had really existed, or if it was just a randomly created character in the game.

“Help me connect to this person’s communicator…”
