Chapter 553: Walking Through the Jungle
"Oh, damn it, look what this beast has done!" Saiko looked at the fragments of the corpse on the ground, which had been completely shattered, and couldn't help but pat his head with some chagrin and pathos.
The people around them also quietly watched the scene in the field, and they all fell into silence. Originally, more than 1,000 people were sacrificed to escape from Ceph's cage and pursuit, and only about 100 of them were successfully freed, but they did not expect to be forced to land on this planet, let alone encounter aliens soon after the forced landing, and dozens of people died at once.
No one could have imagined that on such a prehistoric forest planet with such beautiful natural scenery, there would be such terrifying creatures as the "Viper" alien, and even if they were reminded by Ike and had a vigilant heart, they were caught off guard by the surprise attack of the alien, and more than half of them died.
"It looks like they're not going to rest in peace." Looking at the shattered corpses all over the ground with an expressionless face, Ike stood on a relatively large fragmented corpse of the matrix alien with an SL2000 energy machine gun in his hand, and said very calmly, "We are also in danger. ”
"So what's next?" Norman couldn't help but ask, from the surprise attack of the alien just now, he still couldn't calm the violent trembling heartbeat. And Ike, who is very calm and calm, although he is only 17 years old at this time, has become the backbone of him and everyone else.
Ike's reaction just now was very timely, and if he hadn't let everyone escape, they might have even been wiped out. And what these people don't know is that Ike is leading the team. They had actually managed to get rid of a dozen of the pursuing aliens just now, and the mother-type aliens were extremely sensitive and fast, so they found and caught up with them.
Luckily, the Matrix Xenomorph was killed by Ike in time. Otherwise, it is likely to summon more alien companions, which would be really dangerous.
"Everybody's here." Ike retracted the SL2000 Energy Machine Gun into his space backpack, and then took out a Scythe Dragon's scythe from it, and the scythe fell down, and the tip of the knife was pointed at the broken *corpse* of the slain maternal alien.
"Snort" Ike slashed hard, and the sharp scythe cut directly cut through the delicate and black skin. The sound is a little hairy, even creepy. As the alien skin broke, green blood splattered everywhere, but because a lot of blood had flowed out, the blood pressure was not high. The blood didn't splash far and violently, not only did it not splash on the people around him, but even Ike, who was almost at zero distance, was not sprayed by the blood.
Green blood flowed down the surface skin of the alien and into the land. And this time. Suddenly, there was a "snort" sound from the ground.
The earth is bubbling, and this green blood has a terrifyingly high concentration of acidity, so much so that it directly oxidizes all the carbonaceous organic matter in the land and completely carbonizes it.
Seeing such a scene, the people around couldn't help but gasp, and some people muttered and cursed in their mouths. This "viper" alien is truly a terrifying beast, its whole body is full of weapons, and even its blood is so deadly and corrosive. The Xenomorph is not even restless even when he dies. If the blood pressure was high enough, the nearest group of people would have suffered and died again.
Ike looked at the ground with a blank face. Watch as the aliens' deadly green blood flows out of its body, then corrodes and destroys the soil. What is surprising is that although the surface of some green vegetation is covered by this alien venom, it has not been destroyed, but on the contrary, it is still as vibrant as ever.
After splitting open the first piece of corpse*, Ike shredded the other pieces of corpse, and watched as the soil flowed in with the acid. Everyone watched in silence as they watched his movements, and at the same time felt deep puzzlement.
"That's it." Ike looked at all the ground, then said to the others, "Now that this corrosive blood has been reduced by the large amount of carbonaceous organic matter in the soil, there is no danger, you need to get this soil out and apply it to your body." ”
"Hey, why are we doing this?"
"In order to have the same smell as 'Viper'." Ike said calmly as he withdrew the scythe as he picked up the carbonized soil on the ground and smeared it all over the body of the nano-biosuit he was wearing, and even on his face.
"And with the smell of this 'poisonous snake', when they can't see us, they can't recognize our existence by the smell, and even think that we are their kind, and they won't attack."
"Brilliant idea." Hearing Ike's explanation, Puffey couldn't help but nod, and he first smeared the soil layer on his face, so that the burns caused by the radiation would not look ugly.
"I see, okay then." Norman also smeared the soil on the ground, and his heart that he couldn't let go of because he was overly worried about the alien attack calmed down a little, "I'm still worried that those ubiquitous aliens will eat us at any time." ”
From the series of events just now, it is not difficult to deduce that this primeval forest must be full of aliens. Because it was only a quarter of an hour, they encountered a normal xenomorph and a very ferocious large xenomorph (that's what Seko called the alien mother).
As Ike suggested, everyone quickly smeared the soil on the ground, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hmm." Seeing that everyone had completed their disguises, Ike nodded slightly, and then said to them, "Now, grab your guns and follow me out of here immediately." ”
The Xenomorph's death is also recognized by its companions by smell, so they can't waste any more time and need to get out of here as soon as possible.
So Ike took the lead, and the group followed him closely, and they quickly walked out of the place where dozens of compatriots and the mother alien died, and then began to walk through the primeval forest.
The trees here are all towering giant trees, each of which is tens or even hundreds of meters high, and the oxygen concentration is unexpectedly high, so it can give birth to terrifying creatures like the "Viper" alien.
The dozens of people here have undergone some kind of physical changes due to the modification of Ceph, which makes them more tolerant and adaptable to the environment, so that they can survive and breathe normally in this high concentration of oxygen environment without causing things such as oxygen poisoning.
Ike led the others through the grass several meters high, and as he went, he kept pushing through the grass and keeping an eye on everything that lay ahead. This makes them stop and go, and almost every step forward, they have to carefully check for danger ahead.
At this time, no one said a word, only the small muttering and nervous whispers of some people could be heard. Almost all of them were in a state of high tension, tense their nerves, watching the wind and grass around them.
Danger is everywhere, and on several occasions, Ike has seen the kind of carnivorous plant that eats people and does not spit out bones, and if he hadn't been alert and retreated in time, he would have become a puddle of nutrient solution that melted in the plant's body, along with a dozen people next to him.
There was also the nematode, the size of a human head, which existed in a bubbling pool of acid and could leap far in a single jump, and they saw such a dangerous insect from a distance at the time, so they immediately changed their route.
But even so, the most threatening and one of the top of the food chain in this primeval forest is the Xenomorph. Ike and the others encountered fewer aliens than other animals and plants, but every time they observed this bloodthirsty creature from a distance, they could see it eating.
Xenomorphs are omnivores, they eat almost all the time, all kinds of plants, animals and insects, to replenish the energy of the almost perfect body for hunting and killing, but most of this energy is stored in their bodies, so don't look at the xenomorphs are always eating, but if there is no food source, they can live for a long time.
During these observations, Ike also learned a lot about the habits of the creature "Viper", some of which he had known for a long time during the death trial, and some of which could only be understood by observing it himself.
Turning left and right in the primeval forest with a group of men, Ike navigated the forest with great familiarity, avoiding the influence of aliens and other dangerous flora and fauna, as well as the environment. It's like a fish in water, as if it were really a poisonous snake sneaking through the trees and grass.
Everyone followed him in silence, and through Ike's hand, they undoubtedly trusted the somewhat thin looking teenager more, and they were more convinced of the importance that Rezenov had valued him before.
"Stop." Ike suddenly waved a small hand behind him, and then his whole body crouched down, and he fell to one knee on the ground.
The people around them stopped immediately, and they all did the same thing as Ike, kneeling on one knee and adjusting their breathing so that they didn't make too much noise. You know, although the sound of one person's breathing sounds like nothing, if dozens of people breathe at the same time, then the sound will be very loud, and it will attract aliens to come over.
