Chapter 97

When Lu Qiming woke up, he found himself lying in a cave. There were two soldiers guarding the entrance to the cave, and the man with glasses was standing beside him.

"It's unbelievable that with this level of trauma, a normal person would have died of countless complications a long time ago. But not only will you be able to wake up, but the wound will already heal. It's unbelievable, are you really human? ”

"It's like a fake. But who can tell me what's going on? Lu Qiming sat up with some difficulty. The wound on his body made him grin in pain.

"It's very simple, our group of more than a dozen people, as survivors, retreated from the woods and met you who were attacked. Of course, what those people out there want to do more is to take the opportunity to kill you. But I convinced them to save you. I guessed right, those aliens were in a hurry to go back to the cave and had no intention of fighting us to the death, which is why we were able to break through.

You lure hundreds of people to the valley and stop the monsters for you. At the same time you enter that cave yourself. It must be for something extremely crucial. I think it might have something to do with whether we can get out of here. So I'm wondering, whatever you go in and do? Did it work? ”

"...... unfortunately, I failed. I fell into a trap and almost couldn't come back. Lu Qiming said a little dejectedly. The previous ambush hit him quite hard.

"I've guessed it, but I'm sorry to hear you. Can you tell me what exactly you want to do? Why take such a big risk and rush in? ”

"The reason is simple, on this point, I didn't lie to you. I went in to kill their mother. That thing is the brain of all monsters. At the same time, it is also the mother. ”

"It sounds like you know this creature very well. Can you tell me about it? ”

Lu Qiming silently organized his words, and then spoke.

"I do know a lot about those things. It's a creature like you might think. They have a social structure that resembles a beehive. Sappers constantly raid all kinds of creatures, capture live animals, or kill them for food to provide nutrients for the queen. And the queen is constantly spawning and creating alien armies. The queen will also be guarded by guards. A variety of different branches of the army work together. And the queen rules everything. It is able to remotely control the sappers in some biological way that we don't know about.

It sounds incredible, but it's just the way it is. It's a very scary creature. It's not their claws and tongues that are scary, it's how fast they grow, and how fast they learn. The queen is able to lay eggs almost unlimitedly, as long as there are enough nutrients, hundreds of eggs a day.

After a few hours, the eggs will burst out of their shells. Then move on to their second stage. They will turn into a kind of larvae and will inject the core of the larvae into the human body, or some other creature. Then they will grow in the human body. In this process, they interpret the host's gene chain and take advantage of it to complement themselves. That's why they come in different forms.

When all organs are fully developed, they will kill the host from the inside and then eat it. And it quickly grew into the monster we saw. The whole process took less than twenty hours. And we call this creature ...... Abnormity. ”

After listening to Lu Qiming's explanation, the man with glasses was silent for a long time.

"From a biological point of view, being able to absorb the genes of other organisms and thus optimize their own genes is simply a god-like gift. As long as you give them time, they will have infinite possibilities to grow. How could there be such a perfect creature in this universe. ”

"Hehe, naturally born creatures are not so perfect. This thing is man-made. It should be a biological weapon created by a certain biological civilization in the universe with a highly developed civilization. But this thing eventually got out of hand and destroyed that civilization. The xenomorph became a beastly catastrophic creature. I don't know when, the Iron Wills discovered this creature, and they kept this dangerous creature in captivity, killing them as prey.

But now it seems that they are no longer satisfied with simply hunting humans or aliens. On this planet, we humans, iron-blooded, and alien forces are gathered. It's a smash brawl-like deathmatch. And according to some incomplete information, it is possible that the Iron Blood Clan is divided into two factions. That's a four-way brawl. As the weakest side, we can only win in danger if we want to survive. That's why I took advantage of the weak period of the queen's spawning, and wanted to kill it first to balance the strength of the Quartet. But alas, I failed. ”

After listening to this, the man with glasses fell into a long silence. It was more than five minutes before he spoke.

"There's so much information that I can't tell if what you're saying is true or not. Let's say everything you say is true. How do you know this information? Could it be that there really is a hidden organization on Earth that maintains contact with aliens? ”

"I can't explain that to you. All I can say is that what I say is true. Believe it or not. ”

"Well, I'll take what you say. I don't know what exactly you're hiding and why. But I know that must be a huge secret. It's a secret to why you're so powerful. Your physical fitness is already far beyond the level of a normal human. You can even manipulate an incredibly destructive energy.

All of this made me feel overwhelmed. That's why I saved you against all odds. I know that our priority now is to survive on this strange planet. But I want you to promise me that when it's all over, if we're still alive, let me join you.

I've spent my life pursuing those supreme secrets. Now those secrets are in front of me, and I will not let them go no matter what. Promise me as a reward for saving you. ”

Lu Qiming looked at each other and chuckled.

"Hehe, that's not like the American style. I thought you'd take advantage of my weakness to control me and torture me to get everything you wanted to know, and then kill me. Americans have always been very uniform in their style when it comes to this kind of thing. ”

"I'm different, in fact I have one-eighth Chinese ancestry."

"Interesting. Although it's not up to me to have the final say. But I can promise you a chance. But whether you can grasp it or not is up to you. ”

"I'll do my best. By the way, there's news I'm sure you'll want to know. Those Chinese, they are with you. When we were on the breakout, I saw them break out in the other direction. If nothing else, they should have survived. At least some survived. ”

At this moment, the sound of confrontation came from the entrance of the cave.

"Lay down your arms and stop advancing. Who are you? ”
