Chapter 18: The Alien Queen Escapes
"Oh my God, these bugs are disgusting, and if it weren't for this armor, I would never want to stand here, because these things must look stinky." Huge metal boots, stepping on the damp and soft ground made by the aliens, similar to the fungus blanket, Marisa the chipmunk, her face full of disgust, for this slimy existence, even though the armor on her body has a separate feeding system, but she still feels extremely disgusted.
In fact, she was right, whether it was a living alien or a dead alien, or the fungus blanket right now, the smell was very sour, after all, no matter how alien was said, it was still a kind of bug.
Chipmunk's side is the companions of the Cerberus mercenaries, and they are also the reason for the rapid decrease in the number of aliens, although the carapace of the alien is very hard, but in front of the nail bullets of the C-14 Gauss rifle, it is not much different from the paper paste, and the heat source sensing and imaging system on the CMC armor makes the hidden alien even more hidden.
Therefore, with the skillful tactical cooperation of the team members, and the help of the armor's own observation system, the alien that cannot be hidden is just a faster moving target.
Hearing the chipmunk's complaint, the medical soldier on the side, Ere, walked up to her with a smile and touched the other party with the shoulder of the power armor, "Speaking of Marisa, your cry was quite beautiful when the bug appeared just now, I never thought that a woman's scream was deliberately so beautiful, I actually got hard, you know?" How about we make an appointment when we go back on this mission?"
However, he was responded to by an 8mm spike bullet.
"Wow, wow, I'm surrendering, just kidding" Hearing the damage warning from the power armor, Ere immediately threw in the towel.
"Alright, don't make a fuss, you guys come and see here," Glevin interrupted their frolic as he walked at the front of the line, pointing to the front.
It turned out that they had followed the fungus blanket all the way, but they had come to a hall.
And this hall is not another place, it is the sacrificial room in the original pyramid, but the original stone sacrificial room has been completely covered by those sticky, wet and hot fungus blankets, and the ground in the hall is full of alien eggs.
Yes, it's completely a hatching nest for aliens.
"Oh my God, so many" Seeing the number of alien eggs in front of them, the members of the Cerberus team couldn't help but let out an exclamation in unison.
"These things must not be allowed to go to the surface, it will be a disaster for mankind." Scout Mocking Bird Caroline Cisse said with a serious expression.
"That's right, but this is one of our missions, we can't destroy them all, mummy, collect two samples, chipmunks, and leave the rest to you," Glevin nodded and ordered.
"No problem, Captain," the war scientist, codenamed Mummy, pulled out a special metal box and prepared to sample the alien eggs.
"Of course, I like to do this thing the most, I just want to see how powerful this bomb is" Chipmunk Marisa also smiled and took out a few bombs and said, this kind of bomb is also provided by Chris, as a demoman, what could be more exciting than creating a series of powerful fireworks?
"Captain, what about these people?" Assault Clark saw the humans wrapped in the fungus blanket and said, many of these humans are dead, look at the huge blood hole in their chests, you know what they have experienced, but there are still a few people who are still alive, just unconscious, obviously not long after being caught, but looking at the dead alien larvae on the ground in front of them, that is, the face-hugging worm, it means that these people have been parasitized.
"They've been parasitized, if we take them back, it's a matter of hours, if they get out of their stomachs, it's a big deal, and don't forget what I said when I came in, all the living creatures in this pyramid are our enemies, and so are they" Glaven snapped.
"Yes, Captain" Hearing Glevin's words, all the mercenaries said in awe, although they had a certain sympathy for these people who were parasitized by the aliens, but no one questioned them, after all, they were mercenaries, not rescue teams, and it was impossible to have that kind of virgin heart...... In fact, it is basically impossible for those "virgins" to be mercenaries, and even if they do, they will definitely not live long in the cruel mercenary career.
Soon the mummy collected samples of the alien eggs, during which many face-hugging insects pounced out of the alien eggs, trying to parasitize these people who invaded their nests, but as the larvae of the aliens, these face-hugging insects really have no combat effectiveness, and the thick CMC armor also made them have no possibility of parasitism at all, so in the end, they were only easily killed by the mercenaries.
After completing the mission, the Cerberus team immediately exited the alien hatching nest, leaving behind only the corpse of the face-hugging insect and a few bombs with constantly beating digital screens.
But no sooner had they stepped out of the hatching nest than Glevin saw a dark blue bolt of light flying towards them from a distance.
…………………………
In the deepest part of the pyramid, on the huge platform, a super-large alien with a body size several times that of an ordinary alien, six meters tall and a body length of more than ten meters, was firmly locked on the platform by several huge and thick chains.
This giant xenomorph is the mother of all xenomorphs, the xenomorph queen. One by one, alien eggs are constantly being born from the ovipositor behind it.
However, at this time, the alien queen was not calm, and kept roaring, calling for her heirs.
As the internal structure of the pyramid was activated, the humans who broke into the pyramid continued to disperse, and then were captured by the aliens and became the hosts of the aliens, causing the number of ordinary aliens to increase at an extremely fast rate, and at the peak, the number of aliens exceeded 30.
But just now, in the perception of the alien queen, her heirs are decreasing at a faster rate, and the occurrence of this situation makes the alien queen who has been laying eggs at ease very uneasy.
So the Alien Queen is no longer satisfied with continuing to spawn here, it needs to be liberated, it needs to fight itself, it needs to protect its offspring, it wants to tear apart the invaders.
I have been taken away from my homeland and imprisoned here for thousands of years, and now you dare to invade my territory, you are killing yourself.
In the end, in the queen's roar, all the remaining alien heirs were gathered, but at this time, there were only seven ordinary aliens left, except for the remaining five who had just attacked the Predator Bucky, the remaining 20 or so, and now there are only two left.
Under the roaring order of the alien queen, the alien without the tail was dragged onto the queen's body by other aliens, and was quickly divided by other aliens, and the corrosive blood was splashed on the chains on the queen's body, and these chains began to dissolve at a speed visible to the naked eye.
A few minutes later, the Alien Queen finally broke the corroded chains, abandoned the massive ovipositor behind her, and ran wildly towards the outside of the pyramid.
