Luo Xiyun looked at the smile on Chen Xu's face, and really punched him, so he simply ignored him, stood up, and walked towards the gym next door.

Chen Xu casually put the badminton racket aside, followed behind her, saw that she had found a treadmill, and was about to speak, when he caught a glimpse of a red light on the opposite wall out of the corner of his eye, his eyes stared, and said, "Don't run for too long, get used to it first." I remember something that I need to deal with. With that, he turned and left.

Luo Xiyun had already jogged until he left the gym, and after more than ten seconds, he turned his head to look at the position of the door.

Just now, he said that he wanted to play badminton with her, but now he suddenly said that something was wrong, and something very important must have happened.

It took a while for her to retract her gaze and turn the treadmill up a little faster.

…………

Chen Xu came to the control center next to him and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

On duty were Zheng Niu and Zheng Yang, Zheng Niu got up and said, "Ten kilometers away from the base, a suspicious creature was found and was approaching the base. ”

Chen Xu walked to his place and "Send the picture over." ”

He had once ordered that when he was with Luo Xiyun, he should not disturb him unless it was an emergency that they couldn't solve.

He was in the gym just now, and when he saw the red light on, it was a signal from Zheng Niu. It means that something very urgent has happened and he has to deal with it personally.

A picture immediately appeared on the screen in front of Chen Xu, which was shot from above, and the ground was a long road.

If you want to be rich, build roads first. After the production line of high-strength silicon molecular materials was put into operation, the output was too large, and there was not so much needed in the base, so he simply used it to build roads. By now, the total length is already several hundred kilometers.

In the grassland, such a road is unusually conspicuous.

Shooting down from the air, there is not a single animal in the picture, and around the base, few animals dare to approach. In fact, there are not many animals that originally lived on the grasslands.

For the first few seconds, nothing was out of the ordinary. Suddenly, at the edge of the road, a small black dot appeared, and immediately disappeared again.

Immediately afterward, it goes back to the time when the black dot appears, and the picture is zoomed in. Finally, I could see that it was the head of a creature, with no hair on the top, covered in what looked like scales. The eyes are large and look a bit like the compound eyes of flies.

Just by looking at its appearance, you know that this must not be a good type.

Next to it, a set of data is listed, its head is forty-three centimeters high and thirty-seven centimeters wide. It is much larger than a human, and it can be inferred from this that it is not that small in size.

"No wonder I couldn't find it at the time, it turned out to be burrowing."

The first time Chen Xu saw it, he guessed that it was the black shadow that attacked the farm a few days ago, even if it wasn't the original one, it was the same species.

"Attacking my farm doesn't count, but you want to attack the camp? Just a great gift for you. ”

Chen Xu began to give orders, let the robot in charge of the battle go out, hold a few directions, and only wait for the other party to show up, and then attack. There is only one principle, don't let it escape, capture it alive if it can, and shoot it if it can't be caught alive.

He has always attached great importance to the safety of the base, and has included dozens of kilometers around him into the monitoring range. In order to solve the problem of communication, he spared no material and built many communication base stations.

After the arrangement was completed, Chen Xu sat there and waited.

waited for more than an hour, and the guy still didn't show his head.

He glanced at the time, it was already past five o'clock, tapped lightly on the handrail, suddenly stopped, and said, "I'll leave it to you here, I'll go back first." Notify me when you catch it or kill it. ”

…………

Chen Xu returned to the living area and saw Luo Xiyun washing vegetables in the kitchen, so he walked in and said, "I'll come." ”

Luo Xiyun glanced at him, didn't say anything, didn't walk away, and stood there to help.

The two cooked a meal together.

In reality, both of them are busy at work, and they have never cooked together like they do now, which feels unusually warm.

After the meal was cooked, the two naturally sat down and ate together.

During the whole process, no one spoke, and no one wanted to break the atmosphere.

After eating, the two cleaned up together, and after cleaning up, Luo Xiyun returned to the room without saying a word.

Chen Xu looked at her door and smiled slightly.

She was unusually today, most likely guessed something, although she didn't say anything, but she was willing to take the initiative to cook and eat with him, which was already a kind of wordless support.

Chen Xu knew that she still needed time.

He stood for a moment and left the hall.

After a while, Chen Xu came to the control center again, and Zheng Niu and Zheng Yang were still on duty, and he asked, "How is the situation?" ”

Zheng Niu said, "The unknown creature appeared thirty minutes ago, killed it, and transported the body to the biological laboratory for autopsy. However, an assault robot was lost. ”

"What?"

Chen Xu was a little surprised, he was not surprised to be able to kill that unknown creature, it didn't appear, as long as it showed up, there was only one dead word. The base's defenses are not decorations. But he didn't expect to lose a robot.

An assault robot is a robot designed for combat, with thick armor and strong firepower, making it suitable for frontal assault.

That unknown creature has such strength?

He sat down in his seat and said, "Bring up the video of the battle." ”

Soon, a video appeared on the screen, two kilometers away from the base wall, a black head emerged from the dirt, and in an instant, the drone attack arrived, and a red homing missile flew towards it.

It was extremely alert, and immediately retracted its head.

In less than half a second, the red homing bomb burrowed into the dirt, as if paused for a moment, and the ground exploded violently, and a deep crater appeared. A huge black shadow was thrown out.

Chen Xu finally saw the appearance of the black shadow, its body was similar to a human, with two hands and two feet, and the proportions were similar, but the body was even larger, more than three meters tall, and covered with a layer of black scale armor.

In the explosion just now, it lost half of its hand and appears to be badly injured.

Immediately after, an assault robot arrived, shooting a net and covering it.

This is no ordinary net, it is made of high-strength materials, and it can also emit a strong electric shock, which is specially designed to catch large animals.

When Chen Xu saw this, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled, it looked like it was seriously injured and covered by the power grid, so it shouldn't have the ability to struggle.

At this time, a slender black shadow flashed, and there was an extra layer of black liquid-like viscous substance on the robot's body, and soon, the black viscous liquid burrowed into the inside of the robot from the gap.

After a few seconds, the light in the robot's eyes dimmed, and it stopped moving.

"What's going on?"

He was taken aback, rewind the video for a few seconds, and through slow play, he finally saw it clearly, only to see the black scales on the black monster's body wriggling, and from the position of his finger, a black striped object the thickness of a finger stretched out, drilled through the mesh, and flew out.

As the black scales faded, revealing the true face of the monster, it was actually a person.

Chen Xu was a little dumbfounded, he never thought that the original body of this black monster would be this person.

The picture is fixed on the person's body, he is a man, undressed, about 1.8 meters tall. They have black hair, their facial features are no different from them, and the only thing that doesn't move is their pupils, which are a bit like cats.

At this time, his whole body was convulsing, his facial features were distorted, and part of the skin on his body gradually became charred.

He was electrocuted.

Chen Xu forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart and continued to look down. After the robot was destroyed, after a while, the slime came out again, and then, a cannonball fell from the sky, and with a bang, a large white mist rose.

When the mist cleared, the iced black slime took on a strange shape and stretched long. It was broken into several pieces.

Obviously, it tried to escape, but it was instantly frozen into ice and fell from mid-air before it breaked.

At this point, the battle is over.

During the whole process, there was no problem with the tactics adopted by the robots and drones, and there would be no better results if he was in command.

The robot was destroyed, and it was a complete accident. The brain in the host is estimated to have not calculated that it still has such an ability.

"Continue to strengthen surveillance." After Chen Xu watched the video, he said a word and left the control center.

He went straight to the biology lab and finally saw the black slime that had condensed into ice. It is packed in a transparent case.

It was a high-strength glass that couldn't be pierced by a bullet and was strong enough.

Chen Xu stood in front of the box, and there was a faint feeling of panic, which was a very intuitive danger.

There was a smaller box next to it with the corpse of the human. As soon as Chen Xu saw it, he knew that he was dead.

On the other side, Feng Song was in front of the experimental table, looking down at the microscope. Two other assistants, fiddling in front of a discernment, did not notice his arrival.

Chen Xu walked over and asked, "How is it?" ”

"Mr. Chen." Feng Song stood up and said with a look of amazement, "It's amazing, this is really an incredible creature. Its cell structure is constantly changing, that is, it can change between different forms at will. ”

Chen Xu knew this through the video just now, when it covered the human body to form scales, it was directly hit by a cannonball, and only one hand was broken, which was even harder than metal. It can also be converted into mucus-like tissue. It's amazing indeed.

He asked, "That is, it's still alive?" ”

Feng Song said, "Yes, its cells are still active. I cut a portion of the tissue from it, and after thawing, it came back to life. And it shows all kinds of magical characteristics. ”

Chen Xu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Study hard, I will send you a few more assistants." ”
