Chapter 37: Attack the Lair! (a)
Chu Xuan saw that everyone had picked up their weapons, and he said: "Please note one more point, once the queen is injured by us, when it starts to bleed, we must kill it in the shortest possible time, the blood of the alien is super corrosive, and the location of the alien queen is exactly on the edge of the merchant ship, where a big hole is corroded by its blood...... We will most likely be sucked out of the universe so that we are dead! ”
"Let's tie all the trouser legs into the shoes, just like I did, and then we will walk in the alien lair, their secretions are not strong acids, but they are also corrosive things, so let's tie the trouser legs and shoes completely tightly, so that we can isolate those substances in a short time, and also, don't touch the wall casually for a while, if you see the alien egg, which is the kind of huge oval object, shoot it immediately, don't approach it at will, that's basically it, The rest is up to everyone. ”
The group walked inside from passage fifteen, and sure enough, some thick phlegm-like secretions appeared on both sides of the passage, and the steel underneath these secretions had been corroded by a layer, but fortunately, their acidity seemed to gradually weaken with time.
Chu Xuan carefully touched the secretion on the corner of the wall with his fingers, and then he stood up and said: "The acidity has been oxidized a lot, and now it is probably only a weak acid, which is much easier, and when we fight for a while, we are not afraid of being covered with this secretion, at least it will not be fatal." ”
Zheng Zha stepped on those secretions, he frowned and said, "But it's too slippery to step on, if we fight with the queen for a while, the ground there is all this secretion, I'm afraid we will stand firm when we run." ”
Chu Xuan thought for a while and said: "No, if the battlefield is full of this substance, it will be more beneficial to us, in that way, we don't have to worry about the queen's blood corroding through the shell of the merchant ship, this can be regarded as a favorable condition, compared to the action There will be some obstacles, I would rather choose the battlefield to be covered with a thick layer of this substance." ”
At this time, suddenly the voice of zero came from the front of the aisle: "There is a situation!" ”
Everyone hurriedly ran over, and at this moment he was standing in an aisle in front of everyone, he waited quietly for everyone to come, and then he pointed to the front of the aisle and said, "I can't get over, it's all this kind of secretion over there." ”
Zheng Zhe looked up, and sure enough, the aisle behind Zero was covered with a thick layer of secretions, which looked like the internal organs of some creatures, and at first glance it seemed to be alive.
Chu Xuan suddenly said: "Zero o'clock, the lights are dim here, you have the best eyes, see if the thing over there is an alien egg, that kind of oval-shaped biological organ?" ”
Zero Dian looked carefully with his eyes up, but after looking at it for a long time, he shook his head and said: "No, I can't see clearly, the lights are full of this disgusting thing, and the light here is too dim." ”
Chu Xuan nodded, and he then said to Zheng Zha: "This alien egg will never attack from a distance of twenty meters, so we can get close to it very safely...... Judging from the distance we have walked, this is about the location of the third aisle, and further inside, there are warehouses two and one, and the queen should stay there! ”
Zheng Zha nodded, and he said to the people behind him: "Then you stay here, I'll go and see if it's an alien egg...... Zero, if something appears around behind me, then please help me take them down, I trust your sniping abilities. ”
Zero nodded silently, Zheng Zha smiled and walked towards the nest, as soon as he landed, the soft feeling suddenly came from the soles of his feet, as if he was stepping on the internal organs of the creature, the touch of squeezing the flesh and walking down, made Zheng Zha's scalp numb in an instant, he endured this uncomfortable feeling, and walked slowly to the depths of the aisle, because the light was really dim, he could only see things more than ten meters away at most, this short distance made him walk carefully for dozens of seconds, until he left those things about ten meters, He finally saw that it was filled with dozens of oval-shaped organ-like objects.
"That's right! It's a alien egg! ”
Zheng Zha shouted loudly without looking back, he suddenly panicked and saw that those alien eggs were slowly wriggling and opening, in the alien horror movie, such a situation is the beginning of the alien eggs about to release alien larvae, there are dozens of alien eggs, if all the larvae are released, they are likely to hide in the secretions to attack everyone, once the human body is parasitized by them, then dozens of minutes to several hours, the parasitic person will become a new alien.
Without thinking about it, Zheng Zha picked up Zhang Jie's Tackerin machine gun and shot at those alien eggs, and there was a burst of sounds, these alien eggs were easily knocked into minced meat, their shells didn't seem to be too hard, but even so, a few larvae were released, and the speed at which they bounced up was amazing, and after bouncing off the secretions a few times, these larvae had already approached Zheng Zhe.
At this time, a few gunshots rang out from behind Zheng Zha, and the larvae were smashed into pieces in mid-air, and the zero point marksmanship can be said to be really accurate, and he can hit the target so accurately in this dim situation, it can be said that zero point is a natural sniper.
The crowd continued to move on, and gradually, they could no longer see the traces of the aisle, the floor was almost covered with the kind of sputum-like secretions, and the walls were often corroded with large holes, and on the way from the third aisle to the second warehouse, the dense large holes almost turned the place into a cobweb-like labyrinth.
Zheng Qi walked and suddenly said: "No, I'm completely lost, and I lost my sense of direction from the time I turned the corner just now." ”
Zhang Jie next to him laughed: "No, it looks exactly the same here, it's all these disgusting things if you go in that direction, if you want to find the direction here, it's just ......"
"I can."
"I remember."
Chu Xuan and Li Shaochen said almost at the same time, they glanced at each other, and then Chu Xuan said lightly: "If you just reproduce the map you have seen in your mind, you can leave such a thing to me, and you can indeed reach the No. 2 warehouse by walking all the way down this road, but I wonder if it is appropriate to just walk in directly......"
"Chu Xuan!" Li Shaochen interrupted Chu Xuan's words and said, "I know you want to send someone to explore the way, but at this critical moment, everyone has the potential to become a combat force!" ”
"Do you mean him by combat power?" Chu Xuan pointed to Li Xishuai, who was hiding behind Zhan Lan, although he didn't show any expression at this time, his words seemed to be disdainful.
Li Shaochen touched his chin and said, "I don't know if he can become a combat force, but Chu Xuan, do you think he can obey your command?" Everyone's life has his value, if he dies in the battle to be held, then no one can blame him, but if someone deliberately let him die and force him to death, then Chu Xuan, I will never agree to this kind of thing! Of course, on the premise that he has not caused harm to the team. ”
Chu Xuan pushed his glasses and said coldly: "Mortal opinion! Li Shaochen, originally I thought you were a person who could transcend the mortal realm, but your extra sympathy and feelings would hurt you! You must know that with the inferior nature of mortals, everything can be done. ”
Li Shaochen shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "No matter what you say, in short, I won't agree to the bait plan you want to propose." ”
"What?! Chu Xuan!! Is what Li Shaochen said true? Are you going to fix your bait plan again? No kidding! Li Shaochen and I will oppose it! Although Zheng Zhe didn't understand the previous few sentences, he understood Li Shaochen's words, combined with what Chu Xuan had just said, he remembered the bait plan proposed by Chu Xuan a few hours ago.
Chu Xuan glanced at him and said, "When you give away excess kindness, then you are no longer a kindness, but a simple hypocrisy!" Li Shaochen, do you want to be such a hypocritical person? ”
Li Shaochen rolled his eyes at him, and then said, "When I do things, I want to have a clear conscience." If I feel right, then whether you are good or bad, I will agree. But if I feel wrong, in the same way, I will not agree with death! ”
Chu Xuan pushed his glasses and said, "Understood, then, I can be used as a bait, but can you guarantee that I will kill the queen as soon as she shows her head?" Since you don't agree to let people explore the way ahead, then you can come up with another plan, I'm listening. ”
Seeing that the atmosphere between the three of them gradually became deadlocked, Zhan Lan suddenly intervened between them and smiled: "Don't be so serious, in fact, I don't think it's necessarily useful to arrange people to explore the way in front, aliens are not creatures without intelligence, they are very good at sneak attacks, if only one or two people walk together, then they will definitely attack the one who is close to them first, but if a person walks in front and is followed by four people with guns, in the face of such a situation, the alien will not be stupid to drill out, They must have sneaked up on the next four people first, do you think my inference is correct? ”
Chu Xuan bit his finger and said, "That's right, this inference is very correct...... Is my mind starting to mess up because of fear and nervousness? Next...... I won't say anything more, I'll continue the mission that leads the way, so be it. With that, he walked in a certain direction.
Li Shaochen looked at Chu Xuan's back, his eyes were a little complicated.
(I always feel that there is something wrong with this Chu Xuan, and that Chu Xuan will be afraid?) Isn't there no emotion...... Alas, forget it, after all, the plot has undergone huge changes, and some of the differences in the original book are understandable. But are there any positives and negatives? Could it be ...... There is no such thing as a positive and a negative at all? What the hell is going on...... )
Li Shaochen followed behind the team, but he was still thinking about these questions in his heart, and he was a little distracted.
After a while, everyone had already walked out of the passage, and in front of them was a vast flat field, and there was still a thick layer of white phlegm-like secretions on the ground, in addition, there were dozens of large boxes in this space, which looked like the location of warehouse No. 2.
At this time, the cold feeling made Li Shaochen come back to his senses, he raised his head suddenly, and the cold feeling told him that there was something on his head...... There were four unconscious people hanging upside down on the ceiling, these four people were two middle-aged men, plus two white-collar workers, a man and a woman, except for their heads, their whole bodies were wrapped in white secretions, and the whole person hung upside down on the ceiling.
Zheng Zha and Chu Xuan saw it and looked up with Li Shaochen, and then Chu Xuan immediately said without hesitation: "Zero! Knock them all down! It doesn't hurt to beat people to death! ”
As soon as he finished saying this, he immediately said to Zheng Zhe: "What is our mission to return to the 'Lord God' space alive?" Kill all the aliens! They must have aliens in them, and they must be killed before the queen appears! Otherwise, we will die even if we kill the queen, that is, the queen's corrosive blood problem, it is likely to corrode through the merchant ship, so we must leave the merchant ship in the shortest possible time after killing the queen, but what if the alien in their body suddenly hatches? Do you want us to hunt down those four little aliens again? Time was running out completely, and it was only an hour and forty-five minutes before the ship blew itself up......"
Zheng Zhe looked at Zero Point and raised his gun to shoot, he nodded silently and said, "You did the right thing, I don't have anything to say...... We're just struggling, I'll just save the kindness to my partners, don't think of me as ...... pedantic."
Li Shaochen smiled faintly on the side, he looked up at the four people carefully, two of them had already been shot at zero o'clock, and the remaining two were about to be knocked down, at this moment, he suddenly seemed to remember something, and his expression changed greatly: "Wait! Zero, everyone, hurry up and get out of here! It's a trap! ”
Li Shaochen remembered it, he suddenly remembered the plot here in the original book, and then Chu Xuan's face also changed greatly, and he hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up and do what Li Shaochen said!" ”
It's a pity that as soon as the words fell, everyone only felt that their feet sank, and the whole ground seemed to suddenly fall downward.
Li Shaochen immediately shouted loudly: "Don't move, listen to me carefully!" Warehouse No. 1 is underneath Warehouse No. 2, and the four people hanging here are probably a trap laid by the Queen, which makes us stand here motionless! Zero, hurry up and beat them to death! The queen must be at our feet, and the steel here has been corroded through it, everyone......"
As soon as the remaining two people were swept through at zero o'clock, the steel plate under everyone's feet made a violent friction sound, and before everyone could react, the entire floor had fallen down violently, and suddenly, everyone involuntarily fell to the darkness below!
