Chapter 127: The Phantom of the Monk
In the darkness around the corner, there were several corpses.
For the battle-hardened special operators, corpses are about the most commonplace, what is there to be surprised about?
But everyone immediately saw that something was wrong.
These people, all wearing uniform uniforms, are undoubtedly the staff of the mining base, and their deaths are a little miserable. Most of them have a long knife cut on their bodies, two of which are directly beheaded.
One was even cut in half diagonally, and it was clear that he had been killed by a sharp weapon, and the sharp blade cut through the left shoulder and out of the right waist, cutting the man in two with a single blow.
The first blade that floated in everyone's minds turned out to be the Daguan Knife!
Judging from the death of this person, it is clear that he was slashed to death by the incomparable Daguan knife!
But what era is it?
With such advanced technology, there will still be people there who use Daguan knives as blades?
Wait, there are people who use similar weapons......
Cultivator!
There is no doubt that these people were not killed by dark creatures.
Those rampaging mutant behemoths will tear to shreds everything they can catch without hesitation.
Shao Ying squatted down, carefully examined several corpses, and said in a deep voice: "Not long after these people died, about three hours ago...... There were only scars from sharp objects on his body, and no other injuries......"
"Cultivators, what are they doing here?"
Lukka exclaimed.
The Alpha Galaxy is not a war zone, and everyone never imagined that cultivators would suddenly appear here.
"It doesn't have to be a cultivator, as far as I know, there are some ancient martial arts family inheritances that also like to use cold weapons......"
Luo Yun put forward a different opinion.
For example, the ancient martial arts family of the Wa Kingdom, which was inherited from the old era, liked to use long and short knives, especially in hand-to-hand combat in narrow areas, and the lethality of the sword was even stronger than that of firearms, making it more convenient to use.
Lukka was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Unlikely...... Even if it is the Guwu family, there is no need to cut people into two. How much trouble is that?"
Shao Ying also shook his head and said in a deep voice: "It's not the Guwu family. β
She was born in the Guwu family, so she naturally knew how efficient the training of the Guwu family was. Able to kill the enemy with one sword, never kill more. A real master, even with every knife will not be used - a knife stabs the vital point, immediately draws the knife, and when the first enemy falls, the blade has already been aimed at the second enemy.
It's like the miraculous marksmanship that Zhang Tianjiu performed just now, every shot is just right, and it is never superfluous.
Of course, the Guwu family will also have rookies, but rookies will never be sent here.
The Alpha System is not a tourist destination, nor is it a place to train troops.
Luo Yun didn't insist on his opinion, frowned and said, "Okay, if it's a cultivator, then, what are they doing here?"
Zhang Tianjiu said: "Whatever we come to do, they will do." β
"They are also here for the Dark Flower?" Luo Yun was taken aback: "But, they are cultivators......
In his mind, he probably thinks that the things of Alpha Planet only have an effect on technological people, what does the cultivator want the dark flower to do? This can be regarded as a kind of habitual thinking, this is the world of technological people.
Zhang Tianjiu smiled and said, "Dark Essence, maybe the cultivators need it more than us. β
In the world of science and technology, there should be no one who knows more about cultivators than him.
"However, this thing is really a bit troublesome, I thought that it would be enough to deal with dark creatures......"
As he spoke, Zhang Tianjiu also frowned.
Everyone looked at each other, and for a moment they thought Alexander.
The weapons they are equipped with now are all aimed at dark creatures, and they are afraid that they will not be able to deal with cultivators.
"Anyway, this is our home turf!"
After a while, Shao Ying said firmly.
This girl has an amazing tenacity, even when she knows that the road ahead is dangerous, she will not back down. It is not unusual to be selected by General Hippo and sent to carry out this mission.
"What's the use of such a home field?"
Lukka was depressed.
It was pitch black, and there was no even the most basic energy supply.
Strictly speaking, it's home to dark creatures.
"As long as we can restore the power and restart the main computer, the home field is ours!"
Shao Ying is very stubborn.
"Let's go to the power cabin, the second defensive formation, search forward!"
Zhang Tianjiu made a decision.
Although there is such a variable as a cultivator, he has already arrived here, and there is absolutely no reason to flee without a fight. Besides, the landing craft was destroyed, even if they wanted to withdraw, they would have no choice. We have to find a way from the mining base.
At that moment, the iron arm was the first to open the way, Zhang Tianjiu was in the center, Luo Yunluka responded left and right, and behind Shao Ying's palace, he followed the road map given by Shao Ying, and cautiously marched towards the power cabin.
Whether it's a cultivator or a dark creature, it's all elusive and unpredictable.
The power compartment goes deep underground.
Along the way, the dead bodies were seen from time to time.
Most of them were killed by swords, and after entering a depth of more than twenty meters underground, the iron arm suddenly stopped.
Two figures stood motionless around the corner.
The back is complete, and one of them even has an energy gun in his hand.
But no signs of life have been detected.
There was not a lot of blood under his feet.
The corpses killed by the cultivators' flying knives and swords were basically lying in pools of blood.
There is something strange about these two corpses.
Lukka reached out to touch it.
"Don't mess aroundβ"
Zhang Tianjiu snorted in a low voice, his voice stern.
Turning to the front of the two corpses, under the illumination of the light, the faces of the two of them turned dead gray, even including the eyes and teeth, which were extremely depressing dead gray, which made people can't help but stand on end at the sight of them.
"They weren't killed by cultivators. β
Zhang Tianjiu immediately made a judgment.
These two have been completely corrupted by the dark forces.
After observing for a long time, Zhang Tianjiu carefully touched it, and a corpse seemed to be weathered, falling down and completely turning into a pile of black ashes, a gust of wind blew, and the ashes scattered and flew in all directions, leaving nothing in place.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Although Luo Yun, Luca and Shao Ying were used to seeing death, they couldn't help but tremble slightly when they saw such a terrifying scene, only to feel a cold aura rising from the tail vertebrae, instantly spreading all over the limbs.
"Damn, ruthless!"
After a while, Zhang Tianjiu took a sip gently.
Shao Ying glanced at him, it seemed that this bald boy had been completely wrapped in dark power not long ago, but he was all right, and he was alive and kicking.
Genetic modification is really a bit of a doorway.
On the way to the power cabin, several such corpses were also sighted.
But no dark creatures suddenly appeared to attack them.
"Strange, where did those things go?"
Lukka was a little surprised.
Zhang Tianjiu said: "They may have a new target, and there are not only a few outsiders here. β
"You mean, those cultivators?"
"It's not necessarily a cultivator, this mining base is very large, and there are a lot of living people. β
Lukka nodded in understanding.
Dark creatures are powerful, but this mining base has well-developed defense facilities, otherwise it would not be possible to survive here. If it weren't for the sudden cut off of the energy supply, the dark creatures wouldn't have been able to enter the base.
There are a large number of workers in the mining base, and it is difficult for dark creatures to kill all of them in a short period of time.
As for whether the cultivator will trigger the attack of the dark creatures, no one knows.
The heavy, thick safety door of the power compartment was hidden and not closed tightly, and the crack in the door was just big enough for one person to pass through.
"Colonel, Luca, you are in charge of keeping watch at the door. β
Zhang Tianjiu commanded.
The iron arm took the lead and squeezed in.
Zhang Tianjiu and Shao Ying followed.
A corpse lay on the side of the door, its body intact, and its whole body turned dead gray. Starting from the two dead gray corpses that I first encountered, all the way to the power cabin, they were all the same corpses, and it seemed that it was the dark creatures who attacked the power cabin, not the cultivators.
The incident happened suddenly, and the staff in the power cabin didn't even have time to close the safety door before they were killed by the dark creatures.
In addition to the corpse at the door, there were more than a dozen staff members lying on the ground in the power cabin, all of whom showed no signs of life.
The three of them didn't care so much, and walked straight to the power cabin console.
Suddenly, a slender black shadow burst out from behind the console, shooting towards Zhang Tianjiu.
It looks like a black viper.
Without even the slightest warning beforehand, he just came out.
A venomous snake that has been completely darkened!
The flesh and blood have been reduced to dark matter.
No wonder there was no warning beforehand.
Zhang Tianjiu didn't even blink his eyes, the iron arm walking in front of him waved his hand, the laser sword slashed through a dazzling arc, and the dark viper was cut in half from head to tail, turning into a puff of black smoke in an instant, dissipating into nothingness.
This bodyguard is really dutiful.
There was only one viper behind the console, and no other dark creatures came out.
Shao Ying immediately began to check the power system, and after a moment, he frowned.
"How?"
"Not good. β
Shao Ying shook her head.
"The power system is not damaged, but the entire system is full of dark power, and it can't be restarted at all. β
There was a dead silence in the power cabin, and even the machine that was supposed to have no emotions gave people an extremely cold dead silence, as if it had been abandoned for thousands of years, and it was too dead to die!
"If you want to restart the system, you have to get rid of the dark forces, but ......"
Shao Ying didn't finish speaking, but the despair in his tone could be heard by anyone.
The Black Tide erupts, how powerful is the dark power?
The key dark forces are still entangled with the machine, and if it is forcibly removed with a light weapon, it will be destroyed along with the machine.
"Okay, I'll figure this out. β
"What can you do?"
Shao Ying's eyes were full of little stars, and immediately after, she found that the bald boy was crazy.
Zhang Tianjiu actually took off his battle armor, just walked over, opened his arms, and hugged the cold machine, as if he was hugging a long-lost lover, hugging tightly.
