Chapter 344: Saving the Scene
While Elizabeth struggled to get the monster out of her body, outside the spaceship, a man who was supposed to die returned to the Prometheus again.
The first to be discovered was the captain of the ship, located on the bridge.
On his console, he unexpectedly received a camera footage, which was supposed to be on Feifield's protective suit.
When they found Milban's body before, they didn't see Feifield's body, but at that time, especially when they saw Milban's tragic death, no one thought that he would still be alive. Then there was the Harloway incident, and the Faylfield affair was left behind by everyone as a matter of course.
But now, Feifield, who has long been presumed dead, has reappeared, and the footage captured by the camera on the other party confirms that he is outside the spaceship!
However, no matter how much they called Feifield, they didn't get any response.
Without suspecting too much, the captain immediately opened the hatch of the air chamber and asked his men to fetch Feifield back.
It wasn't until the crew in the gas chamber went to check on the situation that all of them suddenly realized that Feifield's state seemed to be very abnormal!
Feifield, or just a monster that took possession of Feifield's body, who knows what he really is.
It lay on the ground in a very strange way, the upper body itself was close to the ground, its hands making supporting movements, and the lower body was folded one hundred and eighty degrees towards its back, and its two legs were over its shoulders and stepped on the ground, and its head was lowered without any movement.
It looks like he's imitating a spider.
It's not funny at all, as one of the crew members came up to Feifield and tentatively kicked him in the leg, and Feifield's head shook a little, but that was only a natural reaction to being kicked in the body.
"Wallace, come and see what's going on!"
The crew member turned to his companion in the air chamber, but before he could finish speaking, he suddenly heard the sound of his body rubbing against the ground behind him.
He quickly turned around, and then saw Feifield, who he thought was just a corpse, standing up, looking at him.
Feifield's appearance froze the crew member for a moment, his helmet half shattered, and all black stains inside, as if he had just crawled out of the oil. And the Feifield inside doesn't have much of a human appearance.
His skin looked like the product of severe corrosion by a layer of sulfuric acid splashed on him, and his upper lip was almost gone, revealing his teeth that were about to be stained black. Moreover, Feifield's forehead was also swollen high, as if a huge sarcoma had grown there.
The terrifying appearance made the crew member not know how to react for a while, and just asked blankly, "Feifield?" ”
He didn't know that this creature that looked like Feifield was actually just a walking dead controlled by an alien protozoa, with no emotion, no feelings, only instinctive killing!
Almost as soon as he said Feifield's name, the monster responded, slamming his hand on his helmet.
The helmet made of tempered glass was smashed in an instant, and that hand made intimate contact with the face of this crew member with great power, and the power was so great that it directly caused his body to smash to the side, and when the body fell to the ground, it was already a fresh corpse!
Killing the crew with an easy blow, the monster didn't look at it and immediately rushed towards the next target.
The crew, known as Wallace, had no intention of resisting as he witnessed the death of his companion, and turned to flee into the depths of the air chamber.
He wanted to climb onto the landing vehicle, hoping to get shelter there and keep himself away from this terrible monster.
However, this monster not only possessed the terrifying power to kill a person with one punch, but also far surpassed him in terms of speed when he was alive, and it only took a few steps to catch Wallace who was fleeing, and grabbed the back of Wallace's protective suit with both hands, and suddenly exerted force, Wallace only had time to scream, and then his whole body flew upside down.
When Wallace slammed into the ground, and before he could get up and continue his flight, the monster had already jumped to his feet, and then stepped heavily on Wallace's stomach, and the powerful impact immediately caused Wallace to bleed badly, and large balls of blood gushed out of his mouth uncontrollably.
That wasn't the end of it, the monster fell to its knees on Wallace's body, roared like a beast, and slammed its fists into Wallace's helmet.
As had happened before, the helmet did not play any role in protecting the monster, and it broke instantly, and Wallace's face behind it was even more dented by the fists.
Two heavy blows in a row had already caused Wallace to die in pain, but the bloody scene seemed to arouse the beastly nature of this monster, and after death, the two fists kept raising and falling, again and again, constantly beating Wallace's already bloody head!
Through the monitor, the captain watched in shock as two of his crew members were killed, finally realizing what a serious mistake he had made by ordering the hatch to be opened, and that he had to do something about it, or perhaps none of his men left in the air chamber would survive!
"I'll go, Chance, change into clothes, and come with me!"
Hurriedly said a word to the crew beside him, the captain got up and was about to rush towards the air tank, the crew named Chance was about to get up, but suddenly saw that in the room next to the air tank used to change protective clothing, a person had put on a protective suit, and then quickly left there to go to the air tank.
"Captain!"
"What's the matter, why are you still there!?" The captain, who was about to reach the exit of the bridge, heard Chance's voice and turned his head to see that Chance was still sitting in his original position.
Realizing the captain's dissatisfaction, Chance hurriedly said, "That guy went to the air cabin!" ”
"Who!?"
"Ye Qianhu!"
In the air chamber, it seemed that he had finally vented his anger, this monster no longer beat the head that had completely turned into a mixture of various substances, and just wanted to get up to slaughter the next target, a very special dense gunfire suddenly broke out from his side!
In less than two seconds, at least dozens of bullets struck this monster's body, and even most of the bullets pierced its body, and black blood mist bloomed on its body.
The kinetic energy carried by the bullet propelled the monster's body out of Wallace's mangled corpse, and its body had been punched out of a large number of holes in an instant, half of which had been hit in the head, but it was still not dead!
Ye Qianhu, who was walking quickly, looked at the Storm Pulse Rifle in his hand with satisfaction, the ultra-high rate of fire could allow it to launch a large amount of ammunition in a short period of time, such a power was enough to beat any enemy without heavy armor protection into a sieve.
But seeing the monster that got up slowly in the distance, I couldn't help frowning, this monster, although I want to be with zombies in terms of behavior patterns, but it is much more difficult than zombies.
If it's the opponent's zombie, just one shot in its head can solve all the problems, however, if you want to kill this monster in front of you, it's not enough!
And at this time, he doesn't want to expose his abilities, so he still needs to make himself behave more "normal" and kill this monster in a more conventional way.
Grabbing a crew member who hurriedly ran past him, Ye Qianhu said to him: "Go get the flamethrower, hurry up!" ”
I don't know if it should be said that the world is impermanent, less than an hour ago, the favorability of these crew members towards Ye Qianhu was basically equal to zero, but at this time, he suddenly became the lifesaver of these people.
Of course, this crew member didn't think about so much mess at this time, he saw that Ye Qianhu had shot down that monster just now, although he hadn't killed it yet, but the Storm Pulse Rifle in his hand was definitely reassuring.
The crew, who knows what their name was, nodded vigorously and ran as fast as they could in the direction where the flamethrower was placed.
The crew had just run away from Ye Qianhu to get the flamethrower, and the monster in the distance had already stood up again, looking at Ye Qianhu with crazy eyes, and then pounced towards Ye Qianhu with his teeth and claws.
Just looking at his momentum, it seemed that he wanted to tear Ye Qianhu apart with his bare hands.
"It's quite bluffing", looking indifferently at the monster rushing towards him, and sneering, Ye Qianhu didn't stop in his footsteps, let alone use the Storm Pulse Rifle in his hand, just walked quickly to the front of this monster.
Looking at Ye Qianhu who was getting closer and closer, the monster's mouth let out an excited roar, and then suddenly jumped up and pounced towards Ye Qianhu, however, its feet had just left the ground, and Ye Qianhu had already kicked forward like lightning, hitting the monster's chest.
The monster's body that had originally rushed forward immediately changed its convenience, and with a crisp sound of the sternum being kicked and shattered, its body suddenly flew upside down in the direction of the rush, and in his chest, an obvious depression suddenly appeared!
Even if he didn't use his spatial ability and spiritual ability, what could he do, for this kind of monster that only had brute force, and even if it was brute force, it was actually like that, Ye Qianhu didn't regard it as a real opponent at all.
The monster's body slammed to the ground, and then slid backwards for a long distance before it finally stopped, this time before it could stand up, a large amount of ammunition fired by the Storm Pulse Rifle rained down on its body, especially its head, which was the focus of Ye Qianhu's attention.
The body that had been trying to get up was smashed back to the ground by a large number of bullets, and then the shooting continued.
It's hard to kill, but that doesn't mean it can't be killed, it's just that the damage hasn't reached that level before.
When Ye Qianhu stopped shooting because the bullets ran out, the monster whose body was really similar to a hornet's nest was difficult to stand up, well, it was still not dead, but it was obviously already heavily injured, and when he struggled to get up, he was gently kicked back to the ground by Ye Qianhu.
Ye Qianhu took a few steps back and said to the crew member who hurried back with the flamethrower, "Use the flamethrower to continue the attack, don't give him a chance to stand up again." ”
"Hey, you guys, don't be there anymore!" Ye Qianhu put the pulse rifle on his shoulder and said to several other people in the air chamber, "Clean up the corpses of your companions and clean up here thoroughly." ”
After that, Ye Qianhu ignored them anymore and left here directly.
Originally, although he knew that this killing would happen here, he didn't prepare to pay attention to it, because he knew that this monster would definitely be killed by the captain and the rest of the crew in the end, but a few more people died than now.
Anyway, in the end, you have to die, so what's the difference between a little earlier and a little later.
After all, early death is early and early superbirth, and hope is in the next life.
It's just that Meredith happened to be by his side at that time, and she happened to know about it here. Meredith would never allow a monster to enter the spaceship and kill these precious crew members, so Ye Qianhu rushed to the rescue.
Back in the cabin where the protective suit was changed, Ye Qianhu saw the captain and Chance who were still anxiously putting protective clothing on their bodies, shrugged their shoulders, and Ye Qianhu said, "You guys are a little late, Mr. Captain." ”
"Is that why you didn't let Hollowaway into the ship?" Stopping what he was doing, the captain asked with a solemn look in his eyes, "You already knew this was going to happen, why?" ”
Although they hadn't entered the air chamber yet, through the reports of the crew on duty who stayed on the bridge, they already had a rough idea of what was going on there, and they also knew that it was Ye Qianhu who solved the monster.
That monster reminded him of Hollowway who was killed by Ye Qianhu, and he also realized that if Hollowway really entered the spaceship at that time, then the monster they needed to deal with might no longer be just the one outside.
This kind of speculation, which was actually similar to the truth, made him suddenly not know whether to blame Ye Qianhu for brutally killing Haloway, or whether he should be glad that he had solved a hidden danger before then.
"Because I've dealt with similar monsters before, and there are a lot of them", Ye Qianhu explained casually, ignoring the captain's reaction, casually putting aside the empty Storm Pulse Rifle and began to remove the protective suit on his body.
This Storm Pulse Rifle is very close to its future version, that is, the M41A Pulse Rifle that Ye Qianhu once used, at least in terms of magazine capacity, it is exactly the same, with a maximum of 99 rounds, but under normal circumstances, it will only be loaded with 95 rounds in order to prevent jamming.
However, there is no grenade launcher, and although the penetration is better than that of an assault rifle that uses gunpowder as a propellant, it is much lower than that of the M41A.
But that's also a plus in a way.
M41A is so penetrating that when it was used in the spaceship, it was necessary to be careful not to break the shell of the spacecraft, so it was obviously powerful, but when it was used, there were many more restrictions out of thin air.
And the current Storm Pulse Rifle, at least when Ye Qianhu just fired the gun, there was no need to worry, it would add dense bullet holes to the hull in the air chamber of the Prometheus spaceship.
