Chapter Fifty-Eight: Do You Want to Run?
Time passes by minute by minute, perhaps as long as a few minutes, or as short as a whole century.
The two finally recovered from the shock, and then looked at each other, each seeing disbelief and horror in each other's eyes.
"Master...... What should we do now? ”
The young policeman tried to pull out a rather ugly smile, and he also tried to be as calm and calm as possible, but the situation in front of him was far beyond his expectations.
He secretly reached out and pinched his thigh meat so hard that tears almost burst out of his eyes in pain - damn it, it doesn't seem to be a hallucination?
"What to do? I'll tell you what to do - now, you go over and see if those things are real alien eggs. ”
The older policeman raised an eyebrow, then said in a low voice.
“……”
“……”
"Huh? Yes? Wait, wait, I, I don't dare...... Forget it, it's so big, what if it's true? ”
The young policeman blinked in confusion, and it took a long time to understand what the other party was saying, and for a moment he felt that his heart was going to go into arrest, and this was the next thing to do?
Didn't the colleagues in the bureau say that this old-timer is bold and cautious, why does it look so reckless now?!
"Hmph, since you know that you don't dare, then what are you asking!"
The older policeman didn't seem to be surprised, but said in a low voice with some hatred.
"We're going back to the car right now and we're going to get ready at the bureau...... Hey, are you listening, do you really want to go straight to yourself in this situation! ”
"Huh? Oh oh oh, that's good, that's good...... Then master, let's go back quickly, this way! No, no, no, I mean I'm here to show you the way. ”
The young policeman finally reacted, as if he had been pardoned, as if he was about to go to the gallows, but at this time he was suddenly acquitted and released, and he quickly nodded desperately like a chicken pecking rice.
Then, the two of them turned decisively and walked away, leaving the nightmarish house and returning to the street outside. Everyone is not stupid, and they will not continue to die in such abnormal circumstances.
But even so, they can't just end the horror movie at the beginning. Because of the scene behind them, the steps they had just taken stiffened in mid-air.
- because when they turned around, they found that behind them was no longer the gate that had just come in, or that the gate and the wall were gone.
Only a thick secretion covered the sides and up and down, stretching into a deeper deep darkness, like a deep tunnel to an unknown place, like a long extension of the visceral walls of some gigantic creature.
The light of the flashlight shot straight into the distance like a sharp sword piercing the darkness, but it couldn't reach the end of the pitch-black tunnel behind him.
“……”
“……”
Both of them felt a feeling of dizziness and spinning at the same time.
How the hell is this fat four? Where are the two of you now? What the hell are the two of you doing?
Perhaps because this kind of development is too surreal, they have extremely strong self-doubt and self-denial, and they even begin to wonder if they have lost a memory or something.
Otherwise, how would this explain the situation at hand?
Obviously, the two of them entered the abandoned ancient building directly from the street outside, and they haven't walked around much since they entered the door, why is there such a ridiculous thing in front of them?
"Wait, don't be anxious, don't be anxious! The more junctures like this, the more you need to calm down......"
At this time, the old policeman suddenly took a deep breath hard, relying on his tenacity and perseverance, he forcibly calmed down, and comforted the young man next to him with kind words.
"It doesn't matter if you can't go back to the police car, let's just call on our mobile phone to see if there is a signal...... Belch? ”
He took out his phone as he spoke, and then just pressed the screen, and immediately saw the strange appearance of the conspicuous signal grid-
Completely zero, not a single bar signal.
The young policeman also trembled his palms and took out his mobile phone, only to find that the same was true, the mobile phone showed that there was no signal at all, and they seemed to have no way to call for help?
"Don't be so pessimistic, Gao Yang is here with us, if we don't go out for too long, or if he can't get through by phone, he will definitely find out what the problem is."
The old policeman still did not give up on himself because of this, but analyzed it in a very serious and low voice.
"He's very experienced and would never run in without being able to confirm the two of us...... So twenty minutes at most, he'll find out what's wrong, and he'll notify the bureau at that point. ”
"Twenty, twenty minutes?" The young policeman felt that his mouth was trembling.
"Yes, what we have to do now is to protect ourselves for twenty minutes...... Be careful. The older cop let out a long breath and drew his baton.
At this time, he suddenly regretted that he didn't apply for a gun.
However, who would have known that what I thought was a boring police mission would turn out to be so bad! If he really could have predicted the prophet, he wouldn't have turned into such a bad state of affairs.
Is it a dream? I'm sure I haven't come to my senses yet, have I?
Although he has been comforting the young man beside him, giving the other party confidence, and looking calm and calm in danger, the old policeman is actually muttering in his heart, wondering if he has not woken up yet.
Alien lair!
Alien eggs!
How could these things be in reality! Shouldn't they just be sci-fi images created in movies, are they pure space monsters, how can they appear in the real world?
Besides, no matter how you look at this location, this is just a second-tier city, or an ancient building on the street...... If there are such space lifeforms, how did they breed here?
This thing is so terrible, if it spreads out, let alone such a second-tier city locally, all mankind will have to finish playing, and even the entire ecosystem will be shut down.
However, I haven't heard of any major criminal cases recently, and if it is really a large number of people who have disappeared, how can there be no news of such a thing?
He thought hard, and then suddenly he seemed to hear something unpleasant.
Both of them stiffened for a moment at the same time, but immediately turned around to look behind them because they thought of something.
It's not a good idea to hear a voice and still stiffly hold still, and that's okay elsewhere. But now, what is this place?
A beast map that seems to be a strange lair!
Not far behind the two of them are dozens of alien eggs, if they hear any suspicious sounds or movements, and still don't turn around immediately, I'm afraid they will really not be far from death.
“……”
“……”
The glow of the flashlight shone through in unison, and the fleshy lair behind them was like a huge labyrinth, but the two of them didn't realize that something had just made that subtle but creepy sound.
They glanced at each other, took a heavy breath, and shone the light of the flashlight at the dozens of oval-shaped organ-like objects in unison.
That's what they're most worried about.
But it turns out that the psychological effect of Murphy's Law is almost like a curse at some point – if you're worried about something happening, it's more likely to happen.
If there's a chance that things will go bad, then it will happen, no matter how unlikely that is.
The two of them subconsciously held their breath, and they had an increasingly strong uneasy premonition in their hearts, until this ominous premonition was spent on reality...... The dozens of oval-shaped organ-like objects were slowly wriggling and opening under the light of the flashlight.
The tips of these alien eggs are slowly splitting into symmetrical four petals, and under the intense illumination of the flashlight, a slightly transparent scene can be faintly seen, as if some kind of strange liquid, some soft creature is swimming and stretching rapidly.
Almost at the same time, the two policemen felt that their brains were blank, as if their throats were choked by an invisible hand, and they could not make a sound or breathe.
Judging from the performance plot in the movie, this situation is the beginning rhythm of the alien egg that is about to hatch and release the face-hugging worm.
This situation is not so fast that people can't react, after all, some of the unlucky eggs in the movie are tied up by the secretions of those alien nests, sticking to their entire bodies like maltose, and it's good to be unable to move-
But when he saw an alien egg slowly hatching and opening in front of him, he was able to struggle as hard as he could in panic, and finally succeeded in regaining some mobility before the face-hugging insect pounced, picked up a pistol and killed it.
I don't talk about the follow-up outcome of that guy, but this also proves that it takes a certain amount of time for the alien egg to sense that other living creatures are approaching and start to hatch.
It's not like a landmine, which explodes at the touch of a ...... At least as soon as it was opened, the face-hugging insect inside immediately flew up and pounced, such a thing would not happen.
This reaction time is about ten to twenty seconds, or because the alien egg senses the approaching creature, and the beginning of hatching is only the beginning, and the larvae inside do not immediately wake up from dormancy.
After all, they will definitely need a certain amount of time for the various functions of the organism to recover from their dormancy.
It's just that it is indeed difficult for people to react when they are overly nervous and frightened, and besides, it is still such an unseen and unheard of abnormal event, and any past experience and cases cannot be applied to this matter.
The two of them just stared blankly at the dozens of oval-shaped organ-like objects, which slowly cracked at the tops from near to far according to the distance from themselves and the others, and began to hatch, and the soft creatures inside stretched their bodies in the liquid egg cavity.
I don't know how long it has been, but finally the old policeman woke up like a dream, and hurriedly pulled the young man next to him.
Immediately after, the two of them slowly retreated in a cold sweat as if facing a great enemy, and they felt that their feet were full of strange secretions, and a soft feeling came from under their feet.
However, it's too late to think about it at this time.
Just as they had just withdrawn from a distance of five or six meters, finally, the alien eggs in front of them had further movement-
A disgusting alien creature that looked like an octopus and a giant spider bounced into the air at an astonishing speed from the crack at the tip of an alien egg at an astonishing speed!
Then, starting with this one, the face-hugging worms among the other alien eggs bounced up from the eggs at the same time, and chased them lightning in the direction of the two policemen at the fastest speed!
"Running ——!!"
The older policeman squeezed the word out between his teeth, and then the two of them quickly turned around and ran frantically!
