Chapter 43: The Old Man
[Brave? 】
After a little thought, the system understood what Lin Ling was thinking, and couldn't help but be surprised by the latter's idea.
[Do you want to direct and act yourself?] 】
"Of course, isn't it a common routine in fairy tales for a brave man to stand up and step into the upper class of society when he is in danger?"
Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Ling stepped forward as if she were strolling, approaching the center of the battle.
[Didn't you think about what would happen once you were exposed?! 】
Seeing that Linling had gone away, the system didn't dare to roar on the spot, and could only yell in the host's brain through the binding program.
"Don't worry." Lin Ling bowed her hand backwards, but the voice that was not too loud was transmitted to the ears of the system through layers of gunshots, "Absolutely not." ”
The moment he passed by a soldier, a tentacle happened to reach the soldier.
Mentally prepared, the soldier grabbed the beam gun and prepared for the impending fate.
He had intended to do so, but suddenly a knife flashed in front of his eyes, and the tentacles that had been broken into two were sprayed with dark black blood flying in the air.
The soldier was already stunned, and in the blink of an eye, he saw Lin Ling passing by him, and the latter was still holding the knife stained with black blood in his hand.
Lin Ling approached the center, cutting off the tentacles that were swinging at the soldiers.
Her steps were neither fast nor slow, but she could flicker lightly with each tentacle attack, approaching the disc monster itself as if she had predicted it.
By the time everyone reacted, Lin Ling's figure had already arrived in front of the monster.
They couldn't even stop it, and the black-haired figure was already slashing at the base of the monster's tentacles with a knife.
The disc monster also underwent a mutation at this time, and its jagged lips suddenly stretched out directly from its surface, biting Lin Ling at the same time like a snake.
"Be careful!"
Looking at the rioting disc monster, everyone could imagine what happened to this girl next.
However......
With her flexible body, Lin Ling bent backwards.
The oncoming monster grazed above her.
From this perspective, Lin Ling can even see the ring-like teeth of lampreys in her lips.
She couldn't help but sigh that it was so ugly, so she grabbed the knife with her backhand and swung it upward.
The tubes that connected the countless lips were cut off by her.
A man's wail erupted from the rest of the monster's mouth, chaotic and piercing like several screams coming out together.
She didn't care about this, she stepped directly onto the bulge on the disc monster's body, and with a jump, she directly inserted the knife into the face of the person who was originally located above.
The sharp tip of the knife sank straight into the face and into the bridge of its nose.
A sense of blocking came from under his hand, and Lin Ling exerted his strength again, then slashed down and pulled out the knife and jumped to the ground.
Blood gushed out of her face the moment she landed.
The huge disc-shaped body slammed into the ground as if it had lost its strength, causing the entire hallway to shake slightly.
Lin Ling looked at the blood that was accidentally stained on her hands, and decisively rubbed it on the wall.
"Alright, it's settled."
She turned and looked back, and saw that everyone was sluggishly raising their beam guns, bewildered.
They didn't quite understand why they had spent so much time fighting, but it was easily solved by a little girl with a knife.
"Actually, I think you just need to hit that person in the face."
Seeing the worried expressions of these people, Lin Ling still symbolically answered for everyone.
Although this monster has long been set up to be solved only by her, this does not mean that Lin Ling cannot give everyone a psychological comfort.
But well......
After hearing Lin Ling's words, all the soldiers still showed a very unified expression of "I believe you are a ghost".
But soon, someone recognized Lin Ling as the one who treated the soldiers in the isolation room.
The scene suddenly became extremely lively.
Mostly because there were no casualties, the atmosphere was relatively relaxed.
Seeing that the crowd was gathering more and more, Lin Ling's face became a little nervous.
If it weren't for the follow-up plan, she might have fled long ago.
Finally, in the case of almost holding on, she waited for the figure she was looking forward to.
"Natsuru!"
A blonde-haired woman stepped out of the torn wall, followed by an old man with gray hair.
When the woman looked up, she saw a familiar figure in the crowd, and ran towards Linling regardless of the monster corpse that fell in the middle of the road.
She was Romy, but she wasn't the one Lin Ling was waiting for.
The old man who was walking towards the monster's corpse and began to look at it was the figure she wanted to wait for.
Through the information and photos obtained from the killer man's room, Lin Ling knew that a certain medical authority was staying in this planetary fortress, and if nothing else, it should be nearby.
However, Romi's appearance was still unexpected by Linling.
Romi trotted to Linling's side, a white trench coat swaying with the movements, and the hem of the clothes hanging down to her calves made her less flexible, but judging from the bulging calf muscles she hid in her pants, she had usually done a lot of exercise.
The soldiers were very familiar with this doctor and consciously gave way to it.
However, it was this that Lin Ling seized this opportunity to jump out of the crowd directly, and ran towards the old man with Romy.
"It's crazy."
She straightened her hair from the crowd and decided to bring a mask on her next trip.
Romi looked at Lin Ling's slightly embarrassed appearance and smiled, "That's because you don't know what a sensational act you did." ”
Although the time spent with Lin Ling was only three hours, Romi still learned about Lin Ling's slightly duplicitous personality from this short time.
It's like looking at the fact that he doesn't care about the life and death of others, but the action of treatment is faster than anyone else, and you can see that the essence of this person is not too bad.
This is also the reason why Romi easily handed him an olive branch.
"Thanks to you, we have now started to develop a temperature detection instrument, which will be in operation in the near future."
"Before that?"
"Replace them by humans first, even if they are a little tired, but at least they won't watch them die like before."
Romi looked back and saw the group of departing soldiers, his eyes slightly darkened.
Seeing the monster corpse on the ground, she quickly cheered up again.
"You did this?"
As she trotted over, she had already heard some of the soldiers talking.
Lin Ling nodded affirmatively, "I think they are too worried about fighting, so I went on my own." ”
She paused, and added to make Romy more convinced, "Obviously, you just need to find the weak spot to attack." ”
"Weakness?"
Romi stopped and looked at the monster's corpse, where the knife had created a crack in it.
She thought of something, but shook her head again, "If only attacking the weak points could solve everything, the situation wouldn't be so tense now." ”
Even if he hadn't been on the battlefield, Romi knew the plight of the front line, and the casualties were increasing under the onslaught of alien lifeforms.
"That's why I need to look for it."
Lin Ling's words caused Romi's body to pause slightly.
She tilted her head to the side, a hint of doubt in her eyes.
And she was just as puzzled by the old man who was observing the monster's corpse.
"You mean ......?" Romy asked.
"Why speculate about these creatures with normal human minds? What may not be valued to us is fatal to them. ”
Looking at the old man whose attention was attracted, Lin Ling raised her voice slightly.
"Why don't you study it from this point?"
