【166】Metal Beast
Nothing was said all night.
After breakfast the next day, the four of them continued their journey.
"Zhang Sen, do we just keep walking aimlessly like this?" Maggis said as she walked.
Zhang Sen glanced at his watch from time to time and said with a smile: "It's almost, anyway, it's just walking around, don't worry...... It's not aimless, although it can also be said to be aimless, but ...... Actually, I went with a purpose, but the situation was a little complicated, and everything was just my guess, so when I had the answer, I would stop. ”
"There are a lot of contradictions in your statement." Silver Star complained.
Zhang Sen smiled: "Human beings are originally contradictory creatures, aren't they? ”
"It's true that sometimes I want a quiet life, but sometimes I crave passion, and sometimes I hate my work, but now I suddenly lose my job and feel a little uneasy, and it feels very conflicted." Magis nodded.
Yinxing said lightly: "I don't feel that there is anything to contradict. ”
"That only shows that you are still young." Zhang Sen smiled, and then he shook his hand slightly, and a flying knife instantly nailed a poisonous snake.
This poisonous snake was only about half a meter away from Ellie, Ellie was startled, and immediately did not dare to continue to delay, and hurriedly followed Zhang Sen, just now she was looking at a small red insect on the ground, and she didn't notice the poisonous snake at all.
In fact, ordinary poisonous snakes will not attack humans, unless humans are very close and threatened, after all, human beings are so big, poisonous snakes can't eat them at all.
However, Zhang Sen couldn't be sure if the poisonous snakes in this world were like this, so for the sake of safety, he had killed a lot of poisonous insects and poisonous snakes.
At this time, a few kilometers away from the four of them, Lilith landed on the top of a tree, and she looked at the four people in the forest, and gradually showed a perverted smile.
"I'm not surprised that little Ellie is alive, but what the hell is going on with that man?" She licked her lips and muttered to herself.
It's a wonderful feeling to have a body, a feeling that machines can never simulate, and every cell in the body is an individual, but it is always asking the brain.
Hungry, thirsty, desire comes.
Sleepy, tired, excretion comes.
Lilith had been studying her body all this time, and she enjoyed the days after having it, and she didn't come out of the cave until the news came back from her free-range creatures.
"Man, I feel that it should be different from other animals, I really want to try it." She stared at Zhang Sen, the more she looked, the more she wanted to get her hand, and finally she spread her wings and jumped back, flying away quickly.
After Lilith left, Zhang Sen looked in Lilith's direction with feeling.
It's a pity that the suppression of spiritual power in this world is too strong, otherwise Lilith would have found out so closely.
"Somebody was watching us over there." He spoke.
Magis was surprised, "How do you know?" ”
"Sixth sense, I didn't see who it was, but I could be sure someone was there." Zhang Sen explained.
Magis said enviously: "I really want to have a sixth sense, and it is good to have a body." ”
"You're getting the point wrong, who's spying on us." Silver Star couldn't help but complain, feeling so tired.
Zhang Sen smiled: "Don't rush to conclusions now, if the other party appears again next time, I will probably react faster." ”
Although he can't mentally release himself, he can still react with the same gaze, which is the instinct brought by martial arts, just like if someone shoots an arrow from behind, he can quickly turn around and grab the arrow, which belongs to the category of martial arts.
In fact, even if he doesn't rely on technology now, he is still a king of beasts-level existence in the jungle.
His physical fitness has reached the pinnacle of human beings, and he has great power with every punch and kick, plus he knows martial arts, so he is actually very strong, even if he faces the Golden Tooth Tiger with his bare hands, he can still hammer the Golden Tooth Tiger to death.
Of course, since there are technological products that can be used, he will not put them away, and if there is a simpler way, he will definitely give up his authority and use the simplest way to achieve his goal.
The day passed in a stop-and-go manner, and the veil of the night gradually covered the earth.
After dinner, the four of them gathered together to play cards, mainly because it was not time to go to bed, but it was already night and it was not suitable to continue to hurry, so they could only camp and rest.
"We're a long way from the city now, why haven't we seen the beasts?" Silver Star played a card and said with some concern.
Magis also nodded: "It's indeed a little strange, I remember that there is a creature called the silver-toothed wolf mentioned in the popular science knowledge, which haunts in groups, even if the golden-toothed tiger encounters it, it will retreat." ”
"Why are the teeth of these animals made of metal?" Zhang Sen asked casually.
Silver Star said as a matter of course: "Of course, because the metal is relatively hard, if the teeth are not hard enough, how can you bite the prey and how can you eat?" ”
"But our teeth are not metal." Ellie immediately bared her teeth.
Magis was surprised, "yes, why don't we humans have big gold teeth?" ”
"Actually, humans also have big gold teeth, although they are inlayed." Zhang Sen added silently.
Ellie immediately pleaded, "Zhang Sen, I want gold teeth." ”
"No way!" Zhang Sen landed a knife on Ellie's head and refused bluntly.
He couldn't imagine the dazzling light of the golden tooth reflected when Ellie smiled.
The four of them played cards until nine o'clock, and then Zhang Sen and Ellie were ready to go to bed, and Magis and Silver Star were night owls, and they usually went to bed after twelve o'clock, after all, the body is a machine, and they only need to let their brains rest.
There is a special sleep aid liquid in this world, which is a recyclable resource, when Magis and Silver Star decide to sleep, this liquid will be injected from the machine into the vessel where the brain is located, directly soaking the brain, so that the brain directly into a dormant state.
Because of the presence of this liquid, the robot must adjust the time of waking up when it sleeps, otherwise it is really possible to sleep for decades.
Magis and Silver Star continued to play cards after Zhang Sen and Ellie slept, and the light of the little yellow light was just shrouded in the range of the shield, at this time, the little yellow light sensed that Zhang Sen and Ellie were about to sleep, and the light was closed blankly, and finally only remained around Silver Star and Marcis.
…… Gollum...... Grunt...... Lulu......
About two hours after Zhang Sen and Ellie fell asleep, suddenly a strange sound came from the forest.
"What a strange scream, Silver Star, do you know what it is?" Magis looked at the cards in her hand and said casually.
Silver Star shook his head and said, "I don't know, this kind of cry is very rare, and this is the first time I've heard it." ”
At this time, the sound of footsteps gradually approached......
"Looks like it's coming our way." Silver Star spoke.
Magis said calmly: "Didn't Zhang Sen say that this shield has a very strong defensive power, so you shouldn't have to worry about it." ”
But at that moment, a huge metal whip flew out of the forest and hit the shield right on it, and the ground shook instantly.
"What is this?" Silver Star nervously put down his cards and said in surprise.
A metal monster slowly walked out, the metal whip that hit the shield was its tail, the metal monster was smooth, some of the exposed flesh was as scarlet as blood, and the eyes were like torches glowing in the night.
Three meters tall, it resembles a cheetah, and has metal armor and a metal tail, giving it great strength.
This doesn't look like a product of nature, and Magis said, "This can't be the evolution of the monsters in the city, right?" ”
The metal beast attacked again, running for a short distance before its tail flicked out and slammed into the shield, but it still couldn't break it.
"You can't let it continue, although the shield is very defensive, it will inevitably consume more energy if it is attacked all the time." Silver Star immediately spoke.
Zhang Sen turned sideways at this time, sleepy-eyed and said, "It's noisy, what is that?" ”
He got out of his sleeping bag, then walked over to Silverstar and looked at the metal beast, and after yawning, he took out a laser gun and shot at the metal beast.
In an instant, there was a small hole in the metal beast's body, but it was still alive and kicking, and it hit the shield with its tail even more violently.
This metal beast attack is actually very strong, the spear head at the end of the tail has entered the drill bit mode at this time, and every impact has strong penetration, If it is a node-type shield, as long as the attack continues, once a node is destroyed, then there will be a gap in the shield, and this kind of penetrating attack is extremely advantageous for this shield.
It's a pity that Zhang Sen's shield is not that kind of nodal shield at all, but an impact evenly distributed shield, so unless the metal beast has the ability to directly break the entire shield, it is impossible to break the defense at all.
"Sure enough, it's a monster from the Institute of Paleoanthropology, but it's amazing that it's evolved to this extent." Zhang Sen looked at the metal beast and muttered to himself.
Besides, a metal beast suddenly appeared without a head and no brain, and then frantically attacked the shield, no matter how you look at it, it is not a normal situation.
There are many things that seem unrelated, but in fact they are necessarily connected.
At this time, Zhang Sen remembered the unknown gaze today.
"Mary? The suspicion has increased again. ”
Zhang Sen thought silently, and the next moment he quickly opened fire, firing five shots in a row, attacking the metal beast's brain, mouth, eyes, and chest respectively.
The metal beast's defense was not strong, at least not in front of the gun in Zhang Sen's hand, and it was directly punched out of five holes, and then fell down with a bang.
At this time, Yinxing stood up and looked at Zhang Sen and said, "I'm going to take a look?" ”
"Don't, be careful, I'll make up a few more shots." Zhang Sen immediately refused.
He then continued to shoot at the metal beast, and after three shots, the metal beast jumped up and quickly hid in the woods.
Whether it was Zhang Sen, Silver Star, or Magis, they were all stunned, this metal beast was not a brainless creature, and it would actually pretend to be dead.
In fact, Zhang Sen was just cautious, but in fact, he didn't think that the metal beast was not dead, and it was just a habitual mending knife just now.
