Chapter 21: The Alien Queen
Lex walked ahead, like a guinea pig in the middle of a pathfinder.
Wang Tian followed behind, the shoulder cannon on his shoulders swinging back and forth, and he was in a state of fire at any time.
Take dozens of steps.
A familiar roar could be heard all around.
Voices come from all directions, and you know, Xenomorphs belong to intelligent species, and their social structure is similar to that of ants.
Wang Tian broke into the cultivation area of the C layer, just like an enemy attacking the inside of the ant nest, which was bound to cause a frantic counterattack by the soldier ants.
One, two, three...
Soon, in Wang Tian's sight, eight aliens appeared in one breath, plus a hundred face-hugging insects.
They looked very angry.
They roared at Wang Tian and the others, as if warning them to exit this layer immediately.
Retreat, it must not be returned.
The corners of Wang Tian's mouth turned up, what he wanted was for the alien formation to come in groups to send him to death, otherwise he would not have come to the cultivation area.
Brush Brush Brush!!
Seeing that Wang Tian had no intention of retreating, the aliens directly attacked.
Eight aliens came in groups of two and two, and they came quickly along the passage, and there were hundreds of face-hugging insects forming an army, surging along the cracks in the walls.
Buzz.
Wang Tian didn't answer, and the shoulder cannons on his shoulders began to charge quickly.
In the next second, four shots were fired in a row, killing the four aliens in front of them on the spot.
The four aliens in the back did not panic, they attacked in groups of two, one in front of the other, and they were supposed to let their companions in front act as targets.
After Wang Tian eliminated these four aliens, the four aliens behind had already crossed a distance of hundreds of meters and rushed under Wang Tian's nose.
At this time, the shoulder cannon that fired four shots in a row had a short pause, and it needed to be recharged a little before it could be fired again.
Wang Tian took a deep breath, he knew that he didn't have time to wait, so he held the spear in his left hand and touched his waist with his right hand, and threw the two darts out in an instant.
Whoosh!
Two darts whizzed out and slashed at the necks of the two aliens.
The sprint speed of the alien was already very fast, and the distance of 100 meters was only one breath, and it was too late to dodge when it hit a high-speed flying dart, and its head was cut off on the spot.
Just take advantage of this opportunity.
The other two aliens were already close at hand, one left and one right, rushing towards Wang Tian.
Wang Tian didn't think about it, and carried a spear and stabbed an alien to the ground.
At the same time, one of the abandoning spears turned around and slammed into the wall with the other lung-at alien.
Bang.
The two sides rolled into a mess.
Wang Tian sensed that the power of the alien was no less than that of the Predator, and the impact of this collision was no less than that of a small car, crashing into a person at a speed of 100 yards.
Fortunately, the strength of the Predator is not a joke, and with the blessing of the Predator, it is idle to lift a bus.
Wang Tian took a few breaths to dissolve the impact, and began a ground grappling with the alien.
Sou!
Sou!!
The alien front paws rested on Wang Tian's body, his hind legs kicked the ground, and his tail pierced Wang Tian's head like a scorpion tail.
Wang Tian dodged left and right, and was about to turn his shoulder cannon to blast the alien out of the air, when he heard a loud cry from Lex, pounced on the alien and poked the alien head with the dagger he gave.
Hiss.
Alien was in pain, and threw Lex out, stumbling backwards.
Wang Tian stood up with a carp, raised his head with a shoulder cannon, and hit the alien with a single shot, shattering the alien on the spot.
Boom Boom!!
fired a shot, and Wang Tian did not give up.
He fired three more shots in a row, blowing away the army of face-hugging insects that came in like a tidal wave.
After doing all this, he glanced at Lex, who was smacking in pain against the wall, and his eyes flashed with approval.
Lex deserves to be the number one soy sauce.
Ordinary people have long been scared in the face of aliens.
She can still think of fighting back and helping him share the pressure, which is very rare.
"You are valiant and a natural warrior."
Wang Tian was talking to Lex for the first time.
Hearing pure American English, Lex was stunned and looked at him in disbelief.
"Don't look at me like that, the language converter is a must-have for the interstellar race, and I didn't talk to you before because you didn't get my approval."
Wang Tian withdrew the spear stabbed in the alien's body and handed it to Lex quietly.
Lex glanced at him, holding the spear, and he pulled him up from the ground, and said, "Even if it weren't for me, you wouldn't be killed by this alien, would you?" ”
Literally with suspicion, but with a very positive tone.
Wang Tian nodded noncommittally, his shoulder cannon had cooled down and could be fired again at any time.
Without Lex's help, the alien would have been blown away by him, and it wouldn't be so easy to kill him.
"And eleven enemies."
Wang Tian didn't say much nonsense, and walked towards the cultivation room without looking back.
As a commendation for Lex's bravery, this time he didn't let her lead the way and act as a guinea pig, but took the lead.
Lex sees it all.
Although the two sides did not communicate much, it made Lex feel a trace of respect.
This feeling gave Lex a boost in self-confidence, and it turned out that he was not useless.
"Isn't that new?"
All the way to the cultivation room, Wang Tian was never attacked again.
You must know that a total of 27 people were arrested in the expedition team, and 27 aliens could theoretically be hatched.
He killed a total of 16 of them, and theoretically there should be 11 more aliens.
They weren't here at the moment.
Where did it go?
Wang Tian glanced thoughtfully at his feet, if there was anything more important than defending the cultivation room, it would be to rescue the alien queen.
"Weland, Weland!"
When Lex came to the door of the incubation room, he was shocked by the scenery inside.
As far as the eye can see, there are hundreds of face-hugging insect eggs in the cultivation room, and on the wall not far away, there are seven expedition team members.
The one who is the leader, who else can it be if it is not the behind-the-scenes boss of the expedition, Weiland.
"Don't go over!"
Seeing that Lex wanted to go over, Wang Tian stretched out his hand to stop her.
She looked at Wang Tian with a puzzled expression, but Wang Tian didn't explain, just looked at these people quietly.
Six of the seven expedition members who were dragged to the incubation room had a big hole in their chests, which was a tragic situation when the embryo grew into an alien and came out of the chest cavity after being parasitized by the face-hugging worm.
There is no big hole in Weiland's chest.
It's not that he hasn't been parasitized by the face-hugging worm, it's that the alien in his inner body has not yet grown to the stage of breaking the shell.
Under the thermal energy sensing mask that Wang Tian was wearing, he could clearly see that there was an alien that was about to be born in Wei Land's body.
"Lay, Lex!"
I don't know if I heard the call.
Weyland actually came to his senses and coughed, "I'm so uncomfortable, it seems like there's something in my body." ”
Ahem, ahem...
With a violent cough, Weiland suddenly began to bleed.
Before Lex could do anything, he heard a click, and a bloody creature burst out of his chest and roared at Wang Tian and the others.
Rumble!
Wang Tian didn't speak, his answer was a shot.
The shoulder cannon shattered the alien along with Weiland, and at the same time, as if the alarm was sounded, the hundreds of face-hugging eggs in the cultivation room began to tremble.
"Damn bugs."
Wang Tian turned the muzzle of the gun and adjusted the shoulder gun to plasma mode.
One after another, sparks and lightning shattered all the face-hugging insect eggs in the cultivation room.
Lex stood aside, looking at his dead companions, the look in his eyes becoming more determined.
In the end, she picked up a submachine gun from the feet of a companion, brought two grenades, and stood firmly beside Wang Tian.
