Episode 181: Mission
Zheng Zhe easily pulled out the alien tongue that was still stuck in his shoulder. Although the piercing ability of this tongue is very powerful, Zheng Zhe's recovery power is amazing now, but in a short moment, he has recovered most of it.
"Alright, go back to your post, you have to pay attention to the situation at the back of the line." Chu Xuan said to Wang Xia, but the tone of his words was a little weak, because he was actually distracted just now.
How did this happen? How could I wander in the face of danger? Although Chu Xuan's face was still expressionless, his heart kept churning.
In fact, this is due to the fact that as his strength reaches the level of the fourth-order gene lock, various human feelings continue to recover. The current Chu Xuan is already in the realm of the Yuan Shen, and his body has been adjusted to the best state. Although his genes were modified at birth, various hormonal and nervous system abnormalities caused him to be extremely apathetic in his feelings and feelings. But there is also the possibility of affection that means good. In the process of cultivating the truth, his modified genes have been restored to a certain extent, so his feelings will become richer and richer, but he himself has no feelings and feelings for too long, and the indifferent personality that has been developed has unconsciously suppressed his changes, making him look the same as before. But after the body adjusts to its optimal condition, this suppression has begun to be inadequate.
Although Chu Xuan's feelings are indifferent, he also has feelings, and when his feelings are amplified, of course he will show all kinds of manifestations of ordinary people, and mind wandering is one of them.
Wang Xia didn't notice the problem with Chu Xuan's tone, he just nodded and took a few steps back.
And yet at this very moment. Hearing only the sound of "boom", the wall behind Zhao Yingkong suddenly broke a big hole, and a huge head stretched out of it!
Another alien evolution!
Obviously, this alien evolution also quietly followed Zhan Lan when he was distracted. But he hid behind the wall and did not attack at the first time. Now that everyone had just finished cooking a raid, their spirits were a little relaxed, and it launched a raid at this moment! Before its head could fully stick out, its tongue had already shot fiercely towards Zhao Yingkong! At the same time, the claws that were obviously longer and more powerful than ordinary aliens also grabbed towards Zhao Yingkong with the sound of the wind!
Because of Zheng Zha's situation just now, Zhao Yingkong is now facing away from the wall, and her back is less than one meter and a half away from the wall, so there is no way to avoid it!
The alien's spiky tongue stabbed straight into Zhao Yingkong's heart. At the same time, the alien claws had also approached Zhao Yingkong.
Zhao Yingkong had already closed his eyes. Although she was a prominent heir to a family of Assassins, she was now desperate. Even if the third-order genetic lock is unlocked, it is already too late.
Are you going to die? Zhao Yingkong's petite body trembled slightly, but her heart was at a loss. She found that she was not afraid, she was not desperate. There is only a faint sense of loss and sadness. There was even a hint of relief.
Is this what humans think when they face death? She had already felt the strong wind stirred up by the alien tongue, but Zhao Yingkong was not thinking about imminent death now, her mind was all focused on that feeling of relief.
However, things always have twists and turns.
In the desperate gaze and exclamation of everyone, the alien tongue and claws hit Zhao Yingkong fiercely!
However, then everyone did not see the tragic scene of flesh and blood flying in their imagination.
A cyan streamer suddenly fell from the sky, covering Zhao Yingkong. The blue light was only a thin layer as paper, clinging to Zhao Yingkong's body. It feels like it's going to break with a single stab. But when the alien's tongue and claws hit the blue light, it was directly bounced back. The huge recoil force stuck the alien rush against the wall, and he couldn't move for a while.
Chu Xuan was the first to react, and the Gauss pistol immediately sent out a rain of bullets. The rest of the crowd woke up and immediately poured unprecedented barrage onto the aliens. In the midst of a loud hiss, a rain of blood flew over the Xenomorph's body, and bullet holes were all over the body. But he wasn't dead yet. Zheng Zha picked up the Tiger Soul Knife and was about to cut off the alien's head. At this moment, a crimson streamer flew out from the staircase passage, instantly piercing a large hole in the alien's head.
At this time, the blue light on Zhao Yingkong's body disappeared, and Ming Yanwei ran over and hugged Zhao Yingkong: "Sakura is fine!" ”
"Ahh Zhao Yingkong reacted at this time, looked at Ming Yanwei a little blankly, and then looked at the rest of the people: "I have nothing to do." ”
"It's good that there's nothing wrong with it." Chu Xuan said indifferently, "Be careful in the future." Then he turned his head back to the stairs, "Sky, is that you?" ”
"Of course it's me." Qingkong's figure appeared from the darkness of the stairs, and then turned his head to look at Zhao Yingkong, "It's okay, right?" Sakura. ”
Looking at the smile on Qingkong's face, Zhao Yingkong's face suddenly turned red: "No...... It's fine. ”
"It's good that there's nothing wrong with it." Sky turned to the others, "But, how did you get attacked by the alien evolution at such a close distance?" Couldn't Zhan Lan even discover this alien evolution? ”
"It's my fault." Zhan Lan lowered her head, "It's my task to scan the surrounding situation with all my might, but, I'm ...... I was distracted. ”
"Distracted in such a dangerous place?" Sky frowned.
"I can't blame him, I'm distracted." Zhao Yingkong has returned to normal, "If it weren't for the distraction, I should be able to spot the alien approaching." ”
"Actually, I'm distracted, too." Zheng Zha spoke out embarrassedly.
"Me too." This is the zero point.
"You're all distracted?" Qingkong was a little surprised, such a large number of people were distracted, which was really unexpected for him.
"You're not going to wander too, are you?" Qingkong turned his head to look at Chu Xuan.
"I'm distracted, too." Chu Xuan's voice was still faint.
"Huh?!" Not only was Qingkong surprised, but everyone was stunned for a moment.
"I think maybe I should apologize to you." Chu Xuan said again, "You handed them over to me, but I didn't lead the team. ”
Now everyone was even more dumbfounded, Chu Xuan would actually apologize? Although his tone was still light.
"Are you sure you have no problem?" Qingkong suddenly became interested.
"Of course."
"Of course sure or of course not sure?"
"Of course."
"Of course there is a problem or of course there is no problem?"
"Absolutely." There was obviously a hint of impatience in Chu Xuan's tone.
A strange scene, Zheng Zha couldn't help but ask stupidly, "Is he really Chu Xuan?" ”
"I guess so." Wang Xia looked at the conversation between Qingkong and Chu Xuan in a daze, and replied unconsciously.
"Why don't I think he's not? Didn't it get replaced sometime? Zheng Qi couldn't help but mutter.
"Okay, I'll admit I have a problem." Chu Xuan finally couldn't stand being asked by Qingkong's lack of nutrition, and waved his hand irritably, "But I don't know what's going on with Lu Dao." Leave me alone for now, and wait until I get back to the main god space. Now the task is to get through this horror film. ”
Qingkong looked at Chu Xuan and suddenly smiled: "It turns out that this is the case." Good, good! He turned and headed for the stairs. Let's go, everybody. ”
Everyone was a little confused by the words behind Qingkong, looked at each other a few times, shook their heads and followed.
In less than two minutes, everyone reached the hall on the second floor, where a pungent smell was now permeating, but it was not very strong, not pungent. The aliens had already begun to corrode the hull, but because the sky had caught a lot of aliens, the corrosion rate had become much slower.
At this time, Qingkong suddenly stopped, and the rest of the Zhongzhou team also stopped at the same time. The voice of the Lord God rang in the ears of the people.
"Trigger the side story: Rescue the researchers. For each person rescued, each person will be rewarded with 1500 reward points; Rescue everyone, you will be rewarded with a B-level side story, 9000 reward points. If you fail, you will deduct two B-level side plots and 9,000 reward points per person. ”
"The Lord God has sent us a temporary mission." Chu Xuan lifted his glasses, and now he has returned to his previous appearance, at least on the surface: "It's nothing to deduct 9,000 reward points, we basically have more than 10,000 points for each of us now, but it will be a bit troublesome to deduct one of the B-level side plots, if this happens, we will have a lot of people to be wiped out." He looked at Wang Xia, Zhu Wen and Xiao Honglu. Everyone also knows that they have very few side plots, especially Wang Xia and Zhu Wen, and there are not many reward points. In fact, it's not just them, now except for Qingkong, there are not many side plots for others, if you don't complete this task, then the Zhongzhou team will face a large area of attrition (to be continued......
