"Whew~"

A huge claw swept towards Zhang Hong with a fierce wind.

The road in front was blocked, and behind was the body of a sand scorpion as big as a basketball court, and Zhang Hong, who was trapped in the middle for a while, really had no way to go to heaven! Zhang Hong could only lower his head and take advantage of the situation to roll into the belly of the sand scorpion to avoid its frontal attack.

found that the inconspicuous little thing got under his body, the sand scorpion lifted his sharp steps like a knife and stepped on the ground for a while, Zhang Hong could only keep rolling to avoid getting hurt, and the sand scorpion had no choice but to continue to step on Zhang Hong because of his size.

"Tom"

Zhang Hong hit the obstacle in the process of dodging, and the speed of the tumbling immediately decreased. The sand scorpion keenly grasped the flaw exposed by Zhang Hong, lifted a foot full of armor thorns and stepped on Zhang Hong, who was beyond his strength!

Seeing that Zhang Hong was about to die, several bullets from the electromagnetic rifle accurately hit the sand scorpion's step towards Zhang Hong, and although the firing pin filled with powerful kinetic energy could not break through the sand scorpion's defense, it also beat the pillar-like thick step crookedly, and the sand scorpion's attack on Zhang Hong fell short and stepped on his side.

Immediately after that, a black shadow jumped down from the gap in the dome, and took advantage of the unstable shape of the sand scorpion to kick it fiercely at the root of its tail, and the rescuer who fell from the sky was Liu Yuxin, who had separated from them a few hours ago.

The sand scorpion was caught off guard by the mecha and kicked its body hard in its genital parts, and the severe pain made it no longer able to keep its body steady, and it was kicked over by the huge force contained in this kick, and the ground of the entire terminal station shook.

"Bang!"

For a while, the subway station was filled with smoke and dust, and countless sand, gravel and dust fell from the top.

"Let's go!"

Taking advantage of the gap when the sand scorpion was overturned, Liu Yuxin grabbed Zhang Hong on the ground and ran, and signaled Zhang Li and the others who were shouting at them to retreat quickly.

The sand scorpion's reaction was not slow, and within seconds of falling to the ground, he turned his body over again, and chased after Liu Yuxin, even when he reached a relatively narrow lane, he had no intention of stopping, and hit him headlong.

"Boom la la ......"

The subway station was forced out of a wide passage by this fierce sand scorpion.

After rushing dozens of meters against the rubble, the sand scorpion's accumulated strength was exhausted, and it angrily poked its claws into the passage that it couldn't squeeze into.

"Ho~Ho~Ho......"

After running a few hundred meters again, the movement of the sand scorpion was already faint. The group of men, who knew they were safe, also stopped, put their hands on their already limp thighs, and breathed heavily in place.

"Ann...... Safe, right? ”

Zhang Li asked breathlessly.

This group of researchers usually neglects to exercise their bodies, and after this short period of outburst, they feel that their bodies no longer belong to them, and they can't run anymore if they let them run.

"That sand scorpion shouldn't be able to withstand the heat and chase after us a few little people who can't even stuff between its teeth."

Zhang Hong, who had just escaped death, was still a little frightened, and his face was still pale.

"How did you get into trouble with this big guy?"

Liu Yuxin was very curious in her heart, if she wanted to avoid the sight of the sand people, she obviously couldn't walk here, right?

Gong Liang explained the matter in detail from beginning to end from the place where they were separated.

After listening to Gong Liang's description, Liu Yuxin smiled bitterly again:

"Don't think about how to get out of this city, those sand people still have snipers on the outskirts of the city!"

Sniper!

Liu Yuxin's words immediately extinguished the hope in everyone's hearts, with these elite combat units, it is undoubtedly a fool's dream for ordinary people in them to leave the city safely.

"Look!"

Liu Yuxin showed her back, and on the alloy shield more than half a meter thick placed on the back of the mecha, there was a black hole with the size of a bowl.

"I almost shot me to death when I fled to the edge of the city!"

"Gauss rifle!"

Seeing the hole in the shield that was scorched to black by the high temperature, Zhang Hong blurted out, and at a glance, he knew that the hole was the traces left by the armor-piercing heavy Gauss rifle.

It is a lethal weapon designed by the alliance for marksmen, by forming a powerful magnetic field in the chamber of the gun to restrain an incredible amount of electrical energy, and then the special warhead will push the bullet out under the powerful energy propulsion, and when the bullet is fired, the high-temperature ionization attached to the bullet can even pull a beautiful flame tail!

This rifle, which resembles an energy weapon, is extremely lethal, can effortlessly penetrate the outer armor of raiders from several kilometers away, and is almost perfect for individual weapons except for its slow firing frequency. However, due to the complexity of the manufacturing process and the unusually expensive price, it is generally used by humans as an anti-device.

With such a weapon to guard the door, not to mention Professor Sun's ordinary people, even Zhang Hong himself has no outstanding grasp.

"How can those sandmen have such equipment?"

Zhang Hong's question was answered by no one present.

"Don't worry about that for now...... Let's discuss how to break through! ”

Zhang Hong rubbed his forehead with a faint pain, determined to put the weapon matter aside first, he was not an intelligence officer after all, and he couldn't analyze anything from it, and the top priority was to find a plan to get out of this group of sand people. At this time, Zhang Hong suddenly doubted whether he could rely on ordinary rescue teams to pick them up safely under the noses of the sandmen.

Gong Liang used his professional skills to repair and activate the device that could connect satellites to the subway, and then Zhang Hong used the alliance's database to find detailed drawings of the city.

"Are we going to go ahead with our original plan?"

After downloading all the information, Zhang Hong's face was a little pale, because just now when he was looking for the city's information and landmarks, he found several confidential materials that even he couldn't browse, which showed that the city was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and the reason why it was abandoned by the alliance was also somewhat intriguing.

Originally, Zhang Hong wondered why the alliance would easily abandon a large city with a population of millions and a well-established system, and let this area become a no-man's land that could not even form a gathering place, and now it seems that it is likely to be inseparable from those secrets that he cannot read.

"Moving to the edge of the city has become pointless!"

Professor Sun, who had never expressed any opinion, suddenly opened his mouth:

"The sandfolks should have observers and snipers in every direction, so they can be sure that we didn't leave the ruins last night, and then pull a net to search the entire ruins this morning. As soon as we get out of the ruins, we will surely fall into their sight! ”

Others strongly agree with Professor Sun, arguing that his reckless escape from the ruins is undoubtedly exposing himself to the guns of the sandmen.

Professor Sun saw that everyone agreed with his point of view, and Huo Ran had a hint of excitement in his voice:

"There's a famous saying you don't know if you've heard: the most dangerous place is the safest place! We can go back! The sandfolk wouldn't have thought we'd approach their lair and be careless in that direction! ”

Professor Sun's proposal was a risky but feasible one, and the sand people would never have thought that they would throw themselves into the net, and after discussing with each other for a while, they finally decided to use Professor Sun's proposal.

Zhang Hong quickly planned the walking route with the help of the subway engineering drawings, and through those detailed maps, Zhang Hong tried to avoid the places where there might be high-level xenomorphs, and chose a relatively safe personnel passage, which was specially reserved for the use of subway maintenance personnel, and these cobweb-like passages were scattered in every corner of the subway, linking various facilities of the entire subway.

"Wow~Wow~"

Zhang Hong held the handle of the turntable and turned it a few times, opened a metal valve embedded in the wall, and a claustrophobic and long concrete tunnel was exposed, in order to facilitate the maintenance workers to quickly reach the incident point, these tunnels between the subways were designed to allow personnel to easily walk to any point of the subway in a straight line, which is the most time-saving and labor-saving mobile solution.

Zhang Hong led everyone through dozens of such tunnels, and successfully came to the nearest subway station to the nest of the sandmen, judging from the map of the city, it should be a factory producing toxic chemicals, and it has reached the outskirts of the city, only one step away from the nest of the sandmen.

"Huh? How is there a tunnel here? ”

At the very edge of the city, Zhang Hong discovered a tunnel that was not marked on the subway drawings, and according to the drawings, it was supposed to be a control room that controlled the surrounding electricity, which piqued Zhang Hong's curiosity, and Zhang Hong approached the tunnel.

This was indeed a control room, the metal door that was supposed to be closed had fallen to the ground under the destruction of an unknown xenomorph, and inside was a room made of metal, with some rusty scrapped equipment, and a few chairs with back collapsed under a metal table, and only a bare metal skeleton had been corroded by time.

And what surprised Zhang Hong the most was the existence of a mezzanine in this control room!

After losing the maintenance of personnel, the metal wall that originally concealed the entrance to the tunnel was destroyed by the xenos to create a large hole large enough for several people to enter at the same time, and then there was a long, dark and deep tunnel.

Zhang Hong and Liu Yuxin, who came in with him, glanced at each other, and said to Professor Sun and the others:

"You find a place to rest, and Liu Yuxin and I will go to the front to feel the situation."

This place obviously doesn't seem to be very safe, and from the scene, it is not known which category the xenomorph creatures that caused damage here, whether they have left or not, and it is necessary to investigate them in detail for everyone's safety.
