Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Desire to Survive Is Extremely Strong

According to Daisy's father, Calvin Zabo, the ultimate goal of the hive is to recreate the experiments that the ancient Kree conducted on him, and to transform the world's humans into inhumans. But in order to do so, he must first launch the transformant to a high enough altitude environment.

Heavenly Sword was undoubtedly capable of doing this, but unfortunately, his plan to invade and take charge of Heavenly Sword was obviously bankrupt. So the hive is definitely looking for other alternative missile launch facilities now, which is why Michael ordered the Tianjian subdivisions everywhere to pay close attention to the dynamics of each missile launch facility.

And the intelligence that came back said that just a few hours ago, the staff of the US military missile silo somewhere in the Pacific Ocean lost contact.

It's a hive, almost no doubt.

At this moment, the Hive was already standing in the silo control center with the few remaining Inhumans and the hapless Dr. Radcliffe. The hive has absorbed and devoured all personnel throughout the facility, and the warheads containing the special potions have been assembled. The missile was already in position in its orbit, waiting for only one signal before it was ready to burst into the sky.

There must be a 10-minute countdown to the program settings in the control center. Dr. Radcliffe cowered in the corner of the room and watched the bright red countdown on the big screen decrease one by one, feeling like a hundred strong men beating gongs and drums.

The hive squinted at him, "You'd better pray something doesn't go wrong, Doctor." In case your potion doesn't work as well as I expected...... You know what to do. ”

Dr. Radcliffe nodded and patted his chest with his belt, "Don't worry, it will definitely work." ”

I'm already a dead man. He said to himself.

The hive snorted coldly, and its attention returned to the countdown on the big screen.

Minutes and seconds passed. The chronograph stopped at the moment when the numeral number in the minute position of the electronic chronograph turned to "3". The number "3:59" was frozen on the screen as if someone had pressed the stop button, and the words "authorized override" popped up in the center of the interface.

Oh yes! I'm not dead yet!

Dr. Radcliffe felt like he was the darling of Lady Luck at this moment, and he had once again survived at such a mortal juncture. If it weren't for the fact that this guy in front of him was too scary, he couldn't help but want to whistle. Whoever overrode the launch facility's authority was simply his savior.

But he's happy, but the hive isn't.

The hive slammed his fist into the countertop, denting the metal counter, and electricity and sparks crackled out, causing everyone in the room to take a step back.

The room was silent for a few seconds, with the only sound being the thick, muddy breath of the hive, which seemed to erupt into flames.

He turned abruptly, and the Gloo's gaze shot at Dr. Radcliffe like an arrow piercing through the air.

The doctor was happy for the rest of his life, and his heart was half cold at the moment he looked at the hive.

No way?

"You." Hive stretched out his hand and pointed to the big override words on the screen, "Let me find a way to bypass, overwrite the instructions, and resume the launch program!" ”

"What? I? The doctor pointed at himself dumbfounded, "I'm not a flight systems engineer. ”

The hive glared at him coldly, and the gloomy look in her eyes was almost like asking "What else do I want from you in that case?"

"Hmm...... Wait, I seem to have suddenly thought of a way. The doctor's desire to survive exploded at this moment, and he hurriedly changed his words, "Maybe, maybe...... I can try. ”

"Then go quickly." The hive said coldly.

Dr. Radcliffe was gone, but his situation only seemed to be more encouraging. Hive took a deep breath, trying to suppress the restlessness in his heart.

What are you afraid of? Even if they may not be able to deal with the black knight for the time being, it shouldn't be difficult to retreat with Gordon's teleportation ability. If it's a big deal, give up this launch, retreat and hide for the time being, and it's not too late to make a comeback after accumulating strength and finding a way.

Thinking of this, the hive's anxious mood calmed down a little. He turned to Gordon and said, "Overtaking means that we have caught the attention of the Heavenly Sword, maybe that guy has already arrived." You give me a scouting to see if there's any enemy approaching here. ”

Gordon answered, his body flickered, and the blue light released and disappeared in place.

Almost instantly, however, he appeared out of thin air at the other end of the room with the blue light.

The hive fox looked at him suspiciously: "What are you doing?" ”

Gordon was equally dazed with him: "I ...... I don't know. ”

He tried again. The blue light released, vanished, and flashed again, this time teleporting behind the hive.

"What did they do to me?" Gordon was surprised, "I ...... I can't move out......"

Gordon had mastered his teleportation ability for so many years, but he had never figured out how it worked. However, in the last brief encounter at the Heavenly Sword Headquarters, Michael used the computer built into the armor to record the data information of his teleportation, and based on this, he developed a quantum field jammer that can limit the range of his teleportation.

Now that jammers have been mounted around the facility, it means they can't escape with Gordon's elusive teleportation abilities.

The hive's face darkened again.

For thousands of years, he had never felt death so close to him.

He was once a king and was even worshipped as a god. After that, he lived on an alien planet for thousands of years, and finally returned to Earth and was finally able to continue his great ambitions and ambitions......

But now he's going to die. A near-impossible enemy is on the way, and Hive knows full well that he can't win the battle that is coming, and that he is about to be completely destroyed.

No, it's not completely helpless.

The Hive looked at Gordon with a strange look and put her hand on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry." "But I can't help it." ”

"What?"

Before Gordon could react, his body lost sensation. Endless parasites spat out of the hive's hands on his shoulders, quickly burrowing into his body and gnawing at his flesh. His body quickly disintegrated, flesh dissolved, and became a part of the hive as the parasite vector poured back into the hive's body.

The hive let out a low roar, and with a shake of his arms, a blue energy field erupted from his body, and waves of blue qi like smoke swept in all directions.

Then he jerked back, striking at the rest of his fellow Inhumans while they were still standing. He held it out with both hands, and two clumps of parasites were projected, encircling Lincoln and Giera, respectively. Before the two Inhumans could make a sound, their bodies were devoured and decomposed by the parasites, and they were devoured by the hive.

The hive roared, and a dazzling electric current burst out of him, blasting all the equipment in the main control room into flames. The transparent wave of air swept domineeringly, uprooting the entire console and slamming the suspended display.

The Hive never devours Inhumans, not because he can't, but because he doesn't want to. He sees humans as aliens, and aliens as his compatriots. Parasitic compatriots would make his conscience uncomfortable, a principle he had not broken for thousands of years.

But now he did, because he had never been so desperate as he is today. He is a long-lived man with thousands of years of life, his ambition has not yet been realized, and he has a stronger desire to survive than anyone else. That's why he finally chose to cross this bottom line and make the last desperate fight for his life.

However, the power of devouring an inhuman is not at all comparable to that of devouring an ordinary human, not to mention that he can inherit the abilities of the devoured from it. Crossing the bottom line has made him qualitatively improved again, and now he has regained his self-confidence, even if he faces the Black Knight again, he has the strength to fight!

Now, all you have to do is devour the last and most powerful Inhuman.

His gaze slowly shifted to Daisy.

The girl almost stayed where she was. Deep down she wanted to resist, but the parasite in her head snuffed out the thought. Hive walked slowly up to her and raised her hand slightly.

"I'm really sorry, Daisy. I do want to open up a new world with you," he said, his voice hoarse, "but I must live." ”

He opened his palm, and the parasite was released from his fingertips, slowly drifting towards Daisy like a puff of smoke.

It sounded like the sound of a grenade detonating interrupted his devouring.

The door of the main control room was violently blasted open from the outside, and it flew into the room like a huge hidden weapon. The hive subconsciously turned around and was hit by the steel door panel, smashing the already cracked hanging display behind him into several pieces.
