Chapter 34: The First Blood
As the mechanical lifeform pounced, one of its mechanical arms began to deform and turned into a sharp spiral spur, which stabbed straight into Zhang Xiu's throat.
Zhang Xiu roared, raised his left arm and firmly grasped the spiral thorn.
The mechanical lifeform let out a strange laugh, and the spiral spike began to spin at high speed.
What frightened Zhang Xiu was that his left arm, which was almost indestructible before, was gradually pierced under the high-speed rotary drill of the spiral stab.
The spiral spike drilled deeper and deeper, and the tip had already penetrated through his left arm, leaving only a few centimeters away from Zhang Xiu's throat. Zhang Xiu's eyes flashed with a look of despair.
Am I going to die here? No, don't, Xiao Zuo save me!
Suddenly, Zhang Xiu's left arm began to deform, and two slender spikes stretched out, stabbing the mechanical joints behind the spiral spurs of the mechanical lifeform from the left and right sides respectively.
The joint was stuck, and the spiral spike naturally could not move forward, Xiao Zuo's deformation was not over, and the part pierced by the spiral thorn began to become soft, turning into something like mercury, and then this strange metal liquid gradually extended, reshaped, and formed a multi-spiny thorn.
The back of his left arm also began to deform, turning into a thick black spout, and the spout spewed a blue-purple flame backwards.
With the help of the rocket's thrusters, the spikes easily pierced the chest of the mechanical lifeform.
And that's not the end of it, each of the spines of the multi-spines transforms into a small cutter inside the body of the mechanical lifeform, and begins to cut through the mechanical lifeform from within.
The mechanical lifeform let out a baby-like cry, and Zhang Xiu's hairs stood on end. But Xiao Zuo was completely unmoved, and continued to cut the "internal organs" of the mechanical lifeform.
Its limbs twitched, desperately trying to break free, but Xiao Zuo didn't give it this chance, and several metal ropes sprouted from the back of the spiny spikes, firmly binding it.
It lasted for several minutes, and its glowing red eyes gradually dimmed as the mechanical lifeform was split into several pieces of broken scrap metal.
Zhang Xiu sat on the ground tiredly, gasping for breath, he had never been so close to death, and when he fought against synths before, and when he escaped under the claws of Chimera, he was not so thrilling this time.
If it weren't for Xiao Zuo's crazy outburst, he and Shenxue would probably have died here.
Thinking of Deep Snow, he stood up, wanting to see if Deep Snow had been injured in the deathmatch just now. But as soon as Zhang Xiu stood up, Shenxue took a few steps back, his eyes full of horror and fear.
Zhang Xiu realized his appearance at this time, his left hand had just turned into a mechanical monster, and he had split another mechanical monster. Now his left hand is still mechanical and spiny, and it glows with a faint blue light.
As soon as he was about to explain, Deep Snow turned his head and ran outside.
"Intercept her!" Xiao Zuo shouted in Zhang Xiu's mind.
Zhang Xiu knew that he couldn't let Shenxue tell the others what was happening here, otherwise he would be wiped out by the others as a monster infected by a mechanical demon.
"Ahh Zhang Xiu suddenly screamed, and the hatch, which had already been crumbling, collapsed, crushing its legs.
"Deep snow, listen to me!" Shenxue was about to run out of the hatch, and Zhang Xiu shouted, hoping to stop her.
But the deep snow doesn't look back.
At this time, his left hand moved on his own, grabbed the blaster that had fallen on the ground with his backhand, and raised it to aim at Shenxue's back.
"Don't!" Zhang Xiu realized what Xiao Zuo wanted to do, but he also knew that the logical decision made by the artificial intelligence could not be stopped by his words, so he swung his right fist and slammed it into his left hand.
With a "boom", the blaster fired, but because of Zhang Xiu's interference, it did not hit the deep snow, and the energy bullet hit the wall next to it, making a loud noise.
"Don't get in my way!" Xiao Zuo shouted into Zhang Xiu's mind again, this time it began to transform, stretched out another mechanical arm, pressed Zhang Xiu's right arm, and then aimed at Shen Xue's back again and fired.
Zhang Xiu watched as the energy bullet pierced through Shen Xue's delicate body, making a large hole in his chest, through which he could even see the object on the other side.
Blood gushed out like a spring, Shenxue's weak body fell to the ground, and at the last moment, she looked at Zhang Xiu with desperate eyes, Zhang Xiu's eyes roared with tears, he used all his strength to push open the steel hatch that was pressing on his body, dragged his injured foot, walked to Shenxue's side one deep and one shallow, and picked her up.
Deep Snow opened her mouth, but couldn't speak, and the blaster pierced her windpipe, and the blood gradually stained her beautiful white shirt.
"No, it wasn't me, it wasn't me!" Zhang Xiu shouted at Shen Xue, he wanted to press the wound on her chest with his hand, but in vain.
Deep Snow shook her head, closed her eyes, and her hands fell weakly.
"Why are you doing this!" Zhang Xiu roared in a low voice.
"The target's escape will have serious consequences enough to threaten your survival and mine, and the CPU determines that the best interest will be gained by eliminating the target."
Zhang Xiu felt an unbearable headache, he rubbed his temples, and his memories kept coming back.
……
"We are Cyberlux, an ancient race. …… 600,000 years ago, it once controlled the entire galaxy. ”
“…… An ancient civilization called Cyberlux was a terrible demon that killed many organisms 600,000 years ago. ”
“…… Captain Rosta is no longer human, he is now the embodiment of a demon, killing four crew members......"
“…… We have become demons, and the gods have abandoned us. ”
……
What else is there to doubt? I should have understood it when I saw that video at the time.
How similar is it to devour and replace the host's organs, turning the host into a cyborg state?
Cyber is the demon who destroyed the ship, and Xiao Zuo is Cyber, that is, the demon.
No.
"I became a demon." He said in a hoarse voice, "I killed someone. ”
Xiao Zuo expressed doubts in his mind.
yes, how could a mechanical demon wonder what he was doing? Wouldn't it be a matter of course for mechanical demons to destroy organic life?
Zhang Xiu stood up in despair, and the lifeless corpse of Shenxue slid to the ground.
The hatch was right next to it, and Shenxue only had to run one more step or interfere with her left hand a little more, and she would be able to escape.
He pushed open the hatch, and it was dark outside.
Why did Deep Snow come here late at night? Did she come after him, or was it something else? All this became with the death of Deep Snow
Zhang Xiu walked out and began to dig on the ground with his left hand. By the time he had finally dug the pit and buried Shenxue's body in it, the morning was already slightly dewed.
Zhang Xiu looked up at the sky. At this time, a drop of rain fell on his face. The raindrops gradually fell, and the raindrops became heavier and denser, and in an instant it was a downpour.
This rain seems to be the heavens crying, mourning the birth of the demon, Zhang Xiu thought to himself.
The rain ran down the corners of his eyes, wetting his clothes and washing away the blood of the deep snow.
Zhang Xiu swayed and slowly walked into the depths of the jungle.
