Chapter 20: The Predator
The sound of footsteps echoed in the pyramid passage, and it had been five or six minutes since Qin Fei and the others left the tomb where the energy guns were stored, and the group of four kept moving forward in a straight line, and they didn't know how far they had run.
"No... There is no way. The fastest speed, Hou Jun, who was running at the front, suddenly stopped and gasped slightly.
The other three were also very tired, Han Mengxue and Xiaopang ran in the middle, behind Qin Fei's palace, everyone stopped to take a look, and sure enough, there was a dead end in front, and the thick stone wall blocked the passage in front, and it was impossible to pass through at all.
"It just so happens that everyone stays and rests for a while, and we have been running for a long time, so there should be no danger for the time being, and we will leave here when the pyramid mechanism is reactivated." Qin Fei glanced at the blocked road in front of him and wiped his sweat with his sleeve.
"yes, that's great, I'm already exhausted!" Chubby sat down against the wall, rubbed his aching thighs, and said happily.
"It's hard for you to run for so long." Qin Fei smiled faintly, and then changed the conversation and said, "But your physical fitness is really a little poor, Xiaopang, you have to strengthen your exercise after you go back." ”
"Knowing Brother Qin, I was planning to lose weight before." Chubby smiled and said.
"It's not weight loss, it's exercise." Qin Fei corrected himself.
"It's all the same, Brother Qin." Xiaopang was a little indifferent, and Qin Fei was also very helpless about this.
The four of them had rare leisure, so they took this opportunity to sit directly on the ground and start chatting, regardless of whether the ground was clean or not, everyone chatted about it or not, and after a while, they turned the topic to this plot.
"Brother Qin, why don't we join forces with the characters in the plot, isn't that more helpful to us?" Chubby hesitated for a long time, and suddenly said what he thought in his heart.
Qin Fei shook his head and replied, "You are wrong little fat, uniting with the characters in the plot is not only not helpful to us, but harmful. ”
"Why?"
Qin Fei smiled and explained: "First, they are too weak, they are just ordinary people, once the conventional firearms lose their effect, they don't even have the qualifications to be cannon fodder, so why bother to bother them to die in vain." Second, the reproduction mode of the alien in this plot is parasite regeneration, so the alien parasite will inevitably keep looking for a host, the more people we have, the bigger the target, the higher the possibility of facing an attack, from this point of view, walking with a group of ordinary people who are more likely to be attacked by aliens will make us encounter greater danger. ”
"Okay." Chubby hung his head a little dejected, in fact, the reason why he made this suggestion was not just casually, but wanted to take the opportunity to show himself and prove that he was useful.
Both Qin Fei and Hou Jun have always been on the front line when facing danger, even Han Mengxue can provide a lot of help to others after learning defensive skills, but Xiaopang can only become a burden to everyone in obscurity, although Qin Fei and Han Mengxue didn't say it at all, Hou Jun's ridicule he can't help but care, people have self-esteem. Thinking of the excitement when he first realized that this might be some supernatural space, Chubby couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous, he still wanted to be bullied by others from now on, and now he didn't even have the qualifications to be bullied, he was really useless.
Sensing that Chubby's mood was a little low, Qin Fei felt that it was a little inappropriate to directly deny Chubby's suggestion, so he patted Chubby's shoulder a little apologetically, and said: "But what you thought just now reminded me, maybe we can try to unite with other Apocalypsees, the two Japanese directly ignored it, and the rest are the three Indians and the blonde woman who looks like a Westerner, and I will find an opportunity to try to communicate with each other later, after all, we don't have any grudges, so your suggestion is still very useful, don't be discouraged." ”
"Really, Brother Qin?" Hearing this, Xiao Fat instantly became a little energetic, and suddenly raised his head to look at Qin Fei, his eyes did not blink, showing unprecedented concentration. To know how difficult this point must be for him, Xiaopang was afraid that this was just Qin Fei's words of comfort, but in fact, he didn't think so in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"Hmm."
After getting Qin Fei's nod of affirmation, Xiaopang regained his previous look, and he became a lot more confident, chatting with everyone excitedly.
"There is a situation!" After chatting, Han Mengxue suddenly stopped, and said with some doubts: "Did you hear any strange sounds?" ”
"Is there a voice? Why didn't I hear it, it can't be that you heard it wrong, right? Hou Jun replied nonchalantly, feeling that Han Mengxue was a little surprised.
Qin Fei looked at Han Mengxue and asked, "Are you sure?" ”
Han Mengxue shook her head and said, "I don't know if it's an illusion, I seemed to hear footsteps just now." ”
"Footsteps, where? It can't be the people behind who catch up, right? Hearing this, Chubby stood up from the ground and looked around a little nervously.
"Be careful." Han Mengxue reminded.
It turned out that a big net flew from nowhere, and as soon as Chubby got up from the ground, he was directly covered by the big net, and then the big net was nailed to the wall and quickly tightened.
"Ahh As the net tightened, Chubby let out a miserable scream, and the exposed skin was strangled with blood marks, fortunately, Chubby bought a set of E-level combat suits in the Apocalypse Space The material is good, and the mesh can't cut it at all, but as it shrinks tighter and tighter, Chubby's situation becomes not too good.
"Help!" Qin Fei and the others quickly stood up in shock, wanting to step forward to help tear the big net open.
"Ahh
Han Mengxue let out a cry of pain, it turned out that the silk thread of this net was too sharp, like a blade, and the skin was cut as soon as her fingers touched.
Seeing this, Qin Fei hurriedly said to Hou Jun: "Monkey, use your dagger." ”
When Hou Jun heard this, he directly took out the snake blade and began to cut the mesh, this time it really worked, cutting a silk thread in three or two clicks, Qin Fei couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"There's a play."
Seeing that he was about to rescue Xiaopang from the net, Qin Fei suddenly had a feeling of hair, and a bad thought came to his mind, Qin Fei didn't think about it, and quickly dodged sideways.
"Snort."
There was a sound of clothes cracking, and a wound inexplicably appeared under Qin Fei's left ribs, which was still white flesh at first, but after a while, blood gushed out, startling everyone.
At the same time, there was also a sound of being stabbed by a sharp object on the wall behind Qin Fei, Qin Fei, who was full of souls, turned his head to look, only to see a burst of electric light flashing, revealing the true face of that thing, it was actually a spear with a unique shape, if Qin Fei hadn't reacted quickly just now, he would have been directly pierced by this spear, and when he thought about that scene, Qin Fei couldn't help but sweat coldly on his forehead, it was too thrilling!
"Predator!"
At this time, if you can't remember what it was that attacked you and others, the plot of Qin Fei's movie was in vain.
"All back to back, at once!" Qin Fei felt that his voice was a little out of voice, there was no way, he was really scared just now, he was only one step away from death, Qin Fei had never felt so close to death for a moment.
With the unremitting efforts of Hou Jun's dagger, he finally cut a big hole in the big net covering Xiao Pang's body, so that Xiao Pang could get out of the hole.
After rescuing Chubby, everyone stayed together cautiously back to back, everyone's eyes widened and they watched every move around them, but they couldn't find out where the enemy was hiding.
An invisible fear is spreading, the enemy is dark and I am clear, you clearly know that the enemy is by your side, but you and Ben can't see each other, the enemy can give you a fatal blow from the shadows at any time, and the Predator puts great pressure on the four of them.
The oppressive atmosphere permeated the surroundings, and everyone's hearts were clouded with a layer of gloom.
"What about the boss?" Hou Jun gasped nervously and asked Qin Fei in a low voice.
The wound under Qin Fei's ribs was still bleeding, fortunately, the wound was not deep, and there was not much blood, but no matter what, it was always a very unpleasant thing to keep bleeding, but at this time, Qin Fei didn't dare to bandage the wound at all, so he could only wait for the wound to heal by itself.
Qin Fei's eyes looked around like a falcon, not letting go of even the slightest fluctuation, but there was still no progress, Wen Yan touched his chin and thought about countermeasures, until a long time later, he lowered his voice and said:
"The other party should be hiding somewhere, otherwise it is impossible to find any movement at all, everyone be careful, slowly move to the corner of the wall behind together, remember that the movement must be light and slow, until you are close to the wall to determine that the other party cannot hide behind us, and then you listen to me count three times You dodge to the side together, Mengxue adds a shield to me, and I use my skills to try to find his location."
"Do you understand?"
"Hmm." The other three nodded lightly in understanding, and then stepped back step by step.
Qin Fei took advantage of the time when everyone retreated together to keep sealing the method, and after Xiaopang signaled that the back was safe, he began to speed up the sealing speed, and said at the same time: "One ...... Two...... Three! ”
As "three" shouted, everyone immediately fell to the ground next to them, and at the same time, Han Mengxue added a magic shield to Qin Fei.
"Fire Escape: The Great Fireball Technique."
Qin Fei decisively unleashed the Fire Escape Technique, and the C-level skill showed its due power, spewing out a flame in front of him, due to the narrow passage here, the fan-shaped flames directly enveloped the entire passage, and the temperature in the air instantly increased.
"Huh~"
At the same time, a sound of breaking wind came out, and the other party really couldn't hold it, and took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, a boomerang shot towards Qin Fei, accurately hitting Qin Fei himself, but it was blocked by the shield on Qin Fei's body, and the light blue shield rippled and bounced the boomerang back.
"Hiss~"
There was a strange cry from the flames, and when the flames dissipated, a flash of electric sparks flickered in the space ahead, revealing a tall humanoid in a moment.
The humanoid creature had a scorched black spot on its shoulder, obviously it was scratched by the flames just now, but what made Qin Fei feel pity was that even if he couldn't kill the other party, even if he could seriously injure him.
However, the helpless thing was that the other party was invisible, and there was no way to determine the specific location, just like a blind man touching an elephant, which made Qin Fei feel depressed with a punch in the air.
The humanoid monster was about two meters tall, with limbs similar to those of humans, only much thicker, with armor on its chest, only its arms and some of its lower legs exposed, a large steel mask on its head, covering its entire face, and long hair scattered over its head, but the hair was many times thicker than that of humans.
The other party's appearance was somewhat similar to that of an ancient warrior, exuding a cold, iron-blooded aura all over his body, Qin Fei threw away a reconnaissance eye, and immediately got the information he wanted:
"Predator, Rank: Elite. Strength 29, Dexterity 18, Intelligence 11, Perception 15, Constitution 13, Physical Resistance 24, Magic Resistance 23.
Possess skills: 1 Stealth, with the help of high-tech equipment worn on the body to achieve invisibility. 2.
