Chapter Twenty-Six: The Titan Dragonfly
The live broadcast screen kept switching, and more and more test takers began to come into contact with the creatures on the island. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the face of these strange creatures, there are many people who mistake them for xenomorphs and waste badges, but more candidates still make correct judgments. Either kill the monster that comes to attack you directly, or simply ignore it.
"Now that the exam has started for twenty minutes, it seems that no candidate has come into contact with the real xenomorphism......" The female anchor Shu Xinyi looked at the constantly switching big screen and said: "I don't know who will fire the first shot and get off to a good start?" ”
"Ah, there's a response!" Zheng Xingchen put his hand to his ear and said with a smile: "The news came from the director just now that there are already candidates who have been in contact with different species, let's turn the picture to the scene!" ”
Each test taker's terminal will be equipped with a different species identification device, and if the test taker comes into contact with a different species, a special signal will be sent back. Of course, this kind of signal cannot be seen by the candidates themselves.
The screen switched, and Shi Tao appeared on the big screen holding a dragonfly.
"It's ...... Candidate number 2333 before? Shu Xinyi seemed a little unhappy to see this insect sadist, but her professional accomplishment made her maintain a standard smile: "What about the xenos he encountered?" ”
Before the words fell, a huge black shadow passed in front of the camera, and the ********** couldn't stop shaking.
"That's ......!" Both anchors showed surprised expressions, the black shadow hovered in the air and hovered in front of Shi Tao, and the camera clearly captured that it was a giant dragonfly that was terrifyingly big!
With a wingspan of more than seven meters and a length of more than six meters, the huge head is hideous and terrifying, and a compound eye alone is the size of a basketball! Six barbed claws thicker than a human arm, wings like door panels, and a thick tail (belly) stretched straight like a cement pipe.
Compared to it, the dragonfly on the tip of Shi Tao's knife was as inconspicuous as a mosquito. Such a consistent behemoth hovering in mid-air, hovering in mid-air, almost like a helicopter gunship......
"I didn't expect there to be such a huge insect ...... on the island" The two hosts had a brief understanding of the examination room, but they didn't know all the species, and they were really shocked.
At this time, the director's inscription appeared behind the camera, Zheng Xingchen glanced at it, and said improvisedly: "For the heterogeneous situation on this island, you and I are both laymen, so it's better to let real experts answer them." The following is a five-star xenohunter stationed on Carboniferous Island all year round, a doctor of biology, Stephen? Dr. Davey!
With the introduction of the host, Dr. Dawei, who had changed into a clean white coat, walked into the studio and sat next to the two hosts.
"Dr. David, you know all about the creatures on this island, do you have anything to tell us about this giant dragonfly?"
"This dragonfly is different from the ordinary giant vein dragonfly, I call it the Titan dragonfly, it is a xenomorph formed by the further enormity of the giant vein dragonfly!" As he spoke, the information prepared by Dr. Dawei appeared on the screen: "The body length is 6.23 meters, the wingspan is 7.45 meters, the weight is 288 kilograms, the maximum flight speed is 450 kilometers per hour, and it is able to grab more than a ton of heavy objects...... Arthropods of this size that can fly do not exist in theory, only abilities can create such magic! ”
"Where's the ability?" Shu Xinyi looked at the information: "Is it simply huge?" ”
"Don't underestimate the power of gigantics!" Professor Davey said: "Getting bigger means getting heavier at the same time, and maintaining the original mobility is a severe test of the strength and physical strength of the creature!" The body of this Titan Dragonfly is extremely strong, and it is difficult for an ordinary pistol to hurt it! Its terrifying power is enough to tear a person apart in an instant, and the big jaw can even bite off the spine of a cow, with extremely fast speed, the lethality is very terrifying! My threat rating is B, which is not very high, but it is already a tricky enemy for candidates, and if you are not careful, you can die! ”
"That's really dangerous!" Shu Xinyi showed a worried expression: "Then let's see how this candidate copes!" ”
The screen cuts back to the scene from the data interface, the Titan Dragonfly is circling and flying, and on the ground, there is no shadow of Shi Tao, only the wingless giant vein dragonfly lying alone on the ground twitching......
"The candidate is missing?" Shu Xinyi worried: "Shouldn't it be eaten......?"
"Not so fast...... Dr. Davey squinted his old eyes and suddenly said, "There it is!" , zoom in, on the back of the dragonfly! ”
The drone tracking and shooting focused on the camera and zoomed in, only to see Shi Tao sitting on the back of the huge Titan dragonfly, holding the dragonfly's head with his left hand to control the direction, and the long knife in his right hand kept whipping the dragonfly's body, riding this giant insect xenomorph to fly freely in the sky!
"Uh......" The two hosts smiled a little awkwardly: "It seems that the B-level xenomorphism is not enough to cause trouble to this candidate...... Ah, another candidate has come into contact with Xenomorphs, come, let's turn the camera over there......"
……
Of course, it was not enough to cause trouble, in Shi Tao's eyes, this giant dragonfly was no different from those mosquito killers that could be seen everywhere on the roadside, they were just fragile bugs.
He had stuck the giant vein dragonfly with severed wings on the tip of the knife before, not because of any bad taste, but simply to lure this xenomorph out!
Xenomorph is a species with special abilities, although the ability is stronger, but its essence is still the same as that of ordinary creatures in the group. Xenomorphs are to their populations what xenomorphs are to humans.
The status of human beings is also affected by wealth, power, social relations, and so on. It's not that complicated between animals, whoever has a hard fist is the boss! Therefore, the alien species in the animal, unless they are mutated so that the mother can't recognize them, will generally be embraced by their own kind and become the leader of the group. And such xenos usually have a strong sense of responsibility for their own race.
For example, this Titan Dragonfly, although the dragonfly itself is not a social animal, but as a powerful xenomorph, it still has protective behaviors for its own kind in its territory.
This behavior appears in some non-social organisms, and Dr. Davey's explanation for it is that due to the strong ability of xenomorphs, there is almost no competition between them, and this protective behavior is actually protecting potential mating partners......
Anyway, Shi Tao successfully attracted this big boss after walking around the territory in a high-profile posture of abusing insects!
Of course, Shi Tao didn't know any biological theories, but he knew such a method based on experience, so he came to try his luck. The original plan was to lure out a xenomorph and put it in the badge. But I didn't expect such a big one to appear, and I suddenly started to play and become a dragonfly knight!
