Interstellar Number One Farmer: I Only Want To Farm!

Chapter 596 - 180: Decompression Operation_4

He is not an Advanced Maintenance Worker, this job was originally for one, and now that he’s taken it over, he must bear some of the responsibilities and cannot make decisions on his own."Correct."

Receiving confirmation from the Maintenance Technician, Hu Ping set out with the team to eliminate the dangers in the supply room.

The interior of the building only had guiding fluorescent strips; other areas were dark. They raised several floating lamps and nudged them forward, lighting up the surroundings.

Since they needed to repair the pipes, inspection along the route was essential. Others didn’t know how to check, so this task fell to Hu Ping.

Hu Ping quickly spotted the first damage point, a segment cut by something sharp, over ten centimeters long, mostly one or two-sided, but the damage width was only two millimeters, making it repairable.

Hu Ping and the soldiers hurriedly began their repair work.

At this moment, two Insect Men crawled out from the exhaust vent above the wall, prompting teammates to engage in combat while Hu Ping continued repairs.

They couldn’t damage the cable lines in the relatively cramped space.

Engaging in combat was restrictive.

An Insect Man resembling bubble gum leaped down, body spreading out like a flying carpet, squeezed out from the vent, turned mid-air, and shot towards Hu Ping’s back.

Teammates nearby provided timely support with a magnetic bullet.

Fired by a special Mecha, equipped with a powerful magnet device in front, followed by a meat grinder-like weapon.

Once the bubble gum Insect Man became magnetic, it was instantly pulled over and shredded into pulp.

This weapon was particularly effective against it.

After all, this bubble gum Insect Man was troublesome; once stuck, the pulling force would tighten more and more, bullets had to riddle it to barely kill it.

No fire attacks in space, bombs can’t be used indoors.

Two targeted weapons were developed specifically for this.

The vent continuously expelling "bubble gum," they’re without sharp claws but possess deformable bodies, and extrude with a motion reminiscent of squeezing pimples.

As though eager to pop out in a burst.

A teammate said, "Luckily, there’s no acid spitting here..."

"No raising any flags on the battlefield!"

"Hehe."

Hu Ping finished repairing the line, withdrew, "Let’s seal this pipe."

"Okay."

"You guys use the plug." The plug which the squad leader carried was a compressed small ball; toss it in the repair area for a forceful fix.

This repair is one-time; the fixed item cannot be repaired again or recovered.

In this situation, it’s just right to use it, plugging it first.

"No problem. Brother Hu, how should we proceed?"

"I’ll count to three, at three, fire a magnetic bullet here at the passage entrance. If I count to four without absorption, count five and throw it into the vent."

"Alright."

They coordinated effectively.

Hu Ping grabbed the Insect Slaughter weapon and flew to the vent area, counting, "One, two..." while striking down with the weapon.

The part of "bubble gum" extruding from the vent was neatly sliced off, and the struck section contracted as if receiving a heavy blow, "Three."

The magnetic bullet successfully fired, a faint blue glow visible.

"Four." Strong magnetism swiftly pulled the blocked Insect Men from the vent.

They could see inside was "jam-packed," the well-constructed vent was already somewhat deformed.

"Five."

The squad leader quickly rotated the plug and decisively threw it into the vent.

The plug exuded countless black mud-like substance, the material unknown to the soldiers, with a lengthy name, similar to gelatin, hardening until it filled the passage, blocking it completely.

Meanwhile, an ordinary shield pressed firmly against this side of the vent, forcing the plug’s substance to extend inward, squeezing the space for the bubble gum Insect.
