Chapter 486: Spider
The rain outside the cave was getting heavier, lightning appeared in the dark clouds, and deafening thunder burst into the air one after another. Just as a bolt of lightning swept through the sky, casting a fleeting white light between the earth, Saka the Ripper saw a tall shadow standing at the mouth of the cave, unusually hideous.
It stands on its feet and has two hands, suggesting that it should belong to a human. Or, it should be a close relative of a human being. He is more than three meters tall and has extremely thick legs and feet. When Su Hao slowly turned around with the guidance of Saka, whose eyes were straight, a strong lightning bolt swept through the sky again, allowing him to see the "person" standing at the entrance of the cave clearly.
Various physical features indicate that it has a similar body structure to humans. Its face is long and has an eerie inverted triangle. The narrow skull could not accommodate the eyes and could only derive a wrinkled epidermis that encased the bulging eyeballs. It was the size of a palm on the top of the cheek, and beneath the wrinkled skin, a round sphere was rolling back and forth. Su Hao had seen this strange visual organ on Earth. That's about the same 180-degree visuals as a chameleon. But the eyeballs of this "man" are clearly much more advanced than those of chameleons. On that cheek bone, there are a total of six depressions, and the eyeball can move back and forth between the six positions. This gives it a full range of visitation capabilities, never missing the smallest detail.
The shape of the head is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, because the area below the cheeks suddenly becomes larger. Its mandible is almost one-third the width of a shoulder, and the volume of the mouth is very impressive. It bared its teeth, and two sharp canine teeth on the top and bottom could be seen that were distinctly different from those of humans. Just inside the mouth, Su Hao also saw dense small sharp teeth. It's not hard to imagine that if you take a bite from this thing, the bitten part will immediately show a dense blood hole like a sieve.
It's female, there's no doubt about that. This has long been confirmed by the deep concave genital organs between the legs. At the moment of lightning, Su Hao saw drops of dark red slime falling from the other party's lower body. The humid air soon diffused with an unpleasant fishy smell, and Su Hao himself couldn't help but have a very strange sense of excitement.
Saka said that this dark red slime has a **** effect.
Hell, it actually has four ****, and its size and plumpness have reached a terrible situation. At first, Su Hao thought that those **** were some kind of decoration that was worn together by ropes. Because they were so big, they squeezed one after another to take up all the space slightly below their chest, hanging down to their abdomen. This papaya-shaped fat deposit is not at all aesthetically pleasing, and it will make you feel disgusting if you look at it again. But despite this, Su Hao still saw even more thrilling changes in this monster, that is, the female mutant.
It has a large belly. When the lightning flashed, Su Hao finally saw clearly that it was not actually an abdomen, but four legs that bent upwards and were tightly held together. The joints of those legs twisted strangely, and when stretched, they formed huge zigzags in the air. They fall to the ground from four directions, holding their entire bodies high in the air. They have no toes, and the tips of the toes are soft patches of flesh that resemble a membranous flap and are covered with black hairs. When his eyes made contact with Su Hao, the crystal eyeballs emitted yellow-green light under the reflection of lightning.
Su Hao had never seen a mutant in this form. It is true that it is no longer a mutant, but a variant between a spider and a human.
"That's right, this is the monster I expected to have zΓ i."
Su Hao nodded slowly, muttering to himself, while taking out the pistol, then took out a yellow transparent bullet with a strange shape, pressed it into the magazine unhurriedly, and then raised the gun flat, aiming at the spider-shaped mutant creature standing at the entrance of the hole. This series of actions is cumbersome and complex, but incredibly fast.
When he first discovered Saka, Su Hao was suspicious of the silvery-white sticky silk. He had always believed that it was the secretion of some kind of creature, otherwise, it would not have been possible to have such a strong sticky effect. The appearance of this spider-like monster confirmed his judgment.
It doesn't seem appropriate to use a female humanoid as a title. But whatever its name, it does resemble a spider. It didn't move, and the two mutated compound eyes were firmly locked on Su Hao, who was standing in front of Saka. This distance is too close, only a dozen meters away. However, the focus of the spider mutant's gaze kept moving back and forth between the dark muzzle and Su Hao. It accurately judged that Su Hao was just an ordinary human, and also saw every action of Su Hao pressing the bullet into the magazine. The spider mutant couldn't figure out the depth of this human being's strength, but the yellow crystal bullet made it can't help but have a sharp meaning, as well as the creature instinctively sensing powerful power.
It was a transparent bullet with a glittering glimmer of light. Only the Emperor himself is qualified to use this hand-crafted all-crystal warhead.
"What an amazing sense of crisis."
A sarcastic sneer appeared on Su Hao's face: "It is indeed a miracle that the biological senses have evolved to such a keen Cheng dΓΉ. I just don't know, is this ability a sequential and gradual biological evolution? Or is it the parasitic effect caused by the invasion of foreign genes? β
The trigger was pulled, and an extremely shiny flame erupted from the muzzle. At such a close distance, the bullet accurately hit the head of the spider mutant, and the huge energy exploded in an instant, and the pale yellow light curtain completely wrapped the entire human form, and the powerful and incomparable energy raged back and forth in the circular range, although it was an explosion, Su Hao saw that there were electric currents flickering inside and outside the ring explosion circle. Although he knew something about the power of the hedron warhead, it was the first time he had actually used it. The spider mutant's entire body began to shatter and decompose, and when the power of the electricity weakened, the mutant also collapsed. Nothing above the knee was gone, and the ground was littered with shredded flesh. The powerful energy completely shattered and scorched the entire body, turning it into pieces of charcoal-black scorch.
Su Hao carried the gun, walked to the remains of the spider mutant, and silently looked at the scorched lumps on the ground that emitted a strong mushy smell. The blast radius of the hedron warhead is about two meters, which is not so much an explosion as an energy release within a given range. According to the evaluation of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, a 9 mm caliber spar warhead is equivalent to the explosive power of fifty super-heavy artillery shells of more than 400 mm. Moreover, this force is confined to a very narrow range, which further intensifies the destructive attack on the target.
Saka froze, completely shocked by the terrifying power of the hedron warhead. It was already difficult for mutants to understand the huge lethality of firearms, and seeing the spider mutants disappear in front of them fundamentally subverted Saka's perception and concept of this world.
If he were a mutant, Su Hao's shot would definitely not be able to achieve the same deterrent effect as Saka. The divergent thinking consciousness had long been aware of this spider mutant approaching the cave, although its appearance was hideous, its actual combat effectiveness was very average, Su Hao had hundreds of ways to kill it, even if it was using a fighting knife and ordinary bullets, it could also receive results. However, in order to give Ripper Saka a fuller and more intuitive understanding of his powers, Su Hao didn't mind wasting a precious hedron bullet on a minor character.
Not every mutant has the same intelligence as Saka, and that's the only way to make Saka truly fearful. It takes not only love to tame wild beasts, but also whips and hunting knives, and only by beating them in fear and pain will they truly understand who is the master of this world.
Looking at the stunned Saka, Su Hao smiled slightly, pressed the pager of the computer on his wrist, and the sound of a war armored gyroplane soon came from the sky outside the cave. The woods were filled with gunfire and roars, human roars and commands, and the smell of blood and roasted proteins gradually filled the air.
Compared to the past, the central mountain range has become a little elusive. It is impossible for Su Hao to continue to let the mutants continue to wander in the mountains and forests. Saka the Ripper could not control its kind, and the white pyramid was always a feared existence of black particles. Before the situation is clear, Su Hao must minimize the possibility of danger.
The Central Mountains must be completely cleared. The Praetorian Guard has been waiting for its orders, and every soldier here has the strength of an Alpha Evolver. No matter what the mutants encountered, or how long the hapless Saka had been ravaged by the female, the monsters of this forest were no match for humans after all.
Capture as many living specimens as possible.
Search the entire mountain range.
Chemical defense troops were dispatched to corclose the area and prevent anyone from entering or leaving, and those who violated the order were killed on the spot.
Su Hao continuously entered a series of commands on the microcomputer, Tong Yanfeng and Qin Wuyi were both in Moli Zaka Fortress, where as many as 100,000 troops were stationed. Since Su Hao was wary of the Central Mountain Range from the beginning, the surrounding area was an inaccessible military restricted area since more than a hundred years ago. It was not difficult to carry out these orders, and Su Hao only hoped that it would be too late to cause a violent virus storm on the Red Dragon Planet like the Earth.
The changes in the Sakaji people can only be explained by a virus.
If I'm not mistaken, the female mutants must have been parasitized. In layman's terms, it is infection.
Viruses are not as simple as they seem. They are more terrifying than the big beasts. They are free to choose their hosts, which explains why Saka and the other males are not infected, but only the females have become monsters.
But Su Hao didn't understand, since it was an infection, why did it happen to the mutants led by Yisaka? You must know that since the Central Mountain Range was constantly encroached upon by the Imperial Army and engineering troops, the number of mutants and the control area began to shrink. They have lived in this mountain forest for thousands of years without any problems, but only a hundred years after their appearance, the virus crisis broke out.
From the point of view of destructiveness, mutants are simply unable to resist this virus. Their ability to respond to crises is far inferior to that of humans. But then again, the mutant is actually a semi-intelligent life form in captivity. Their existence seems to be only for the purpose of curbing the natives, and the relationship between the two sides is much like that of pigs and dogs in the courtyard of a farm house on Earth. If the purpose is to cause large-scale destruction on the Red Dragon planet, the city should be chosen as the virus release point. But why, is this phenomenon only seen in mutants?
Is it really just to cause the mutant to degenerate, give up the existing two-legged erect humanoid state, and become a four-legged beast?
More than a dozen huge circles of searchlights shine directly into the cave, illuminating the dark and deep environment. Saka was accustomed to living in the dark, and he could not escape the silver viscose, so he could only tilt his head to the side as much as possible, and let out a painful and helpless howl from his mouth. Su Hao stayed in the cave for quite a while, and even he felt a little dazzling by the strong light, and while he turned sideways to avoid the light, he saw Qin Wuyi, who was fully armed, accompanied by a group of heavily armed soldiers, striding into the cave.
"By my order, no one is allowed to come into contact with unknown species in the Central Mountain Range region."
I don't know why, Su Hao suddenly had a very bad feeling in his heart. He subconsciously remembered the time when the virus crisis on the earth had just broken out, and hurriedly said in a hurried tone: "Be fast, just order the soldiers to shoot directly at the target, and leave the collection of various samples to the anti-chemical defense troops." Checkpoints were immediately set up on the outskirts of the mountains, and all people entering the mountains had to go through a sanitary quarantine before they could go out. Sue them, you have to be careful of the dark red semi-solidified slurry in the woods. I have a feeling that that is probably the source of the chaos. β
Qin Wuyi was a little stunned: "Chaos? What are you referring to? β
"I suspect that virus outbreaks on Earth are not isolated."
Su Hao took out the dagger, took out the lighter from the pocket of his clothes, unscrewed it, and the light blue flames burned back and forth on the blade of the dagger. After about half a minute, the blade of the dagger was already slightly blackened, and Su Hao used the dagger to **** the silver sticky silk next to Saka's shoulder that was connected to the wall of the rock cave. The intense heat had an obvious destructive effect on this sticky silk, and it was quickly cut open a crack, and when the temperature of the dagger gradually decreased, Su Hao kept repeating the same action.
This is the goe secreted by the spider mutant, and any hard object that comes into contact with it will be sticked. The best way is to destroy it directly by high temperatures. Reinforcements carry flamethrowers, but those are extremely powerful combat weapons. Even if the oil supply vent is turned to a minimum, it is still inevitable that Saka will be burned on the spot. What's more, the silver viscose is inherently flammable, and if you use a lighter to burn it directly, the flames will quickly spread throughout Saka's body.
"When I was on Earth, I made a mistake."
While Su Hao was busy with the rescue action in his hand, he explained to Qin Wuyi without looking back: "I shouldn't have killed those two Atlanteans in the underwater pyramid. I suspect that the teleportation location they originally arranged for us to enter was not here. I was so quick that if they were alive at the time, our teleportation destination would not have been here. β
Qin Wuyi's face was full of surprise: "How do you know?" β
"Remember the triangular elevation you brought from Earth?"
"Yes."
"It is a three-dimensional image of a cone, with the highest point being the Earth, which spreads outwards in a diffuse manner, eventually forming a stable triangle. From this point of view, the Earth is indeed located at the highest point of the triangle, while the Red Dragon Planet is located at the bottom of the triangle. But if you squash the triangle in a different way, you get a circle that is not very regular. Although the Earth is also located in the core, all the coordinates in the middle of the triangle are stacked on the same plane. I calculated that in that case, the position of the Red Dragon Planet and the Earth almost coincided. β
Qin Wuyi understood what Su Hao wanted to express, and nodded: "It's not just the earth and here that overlap, many coordinates on that map will appear in the situation you said." β
Su Hao cut a piece of silver sticky silk with great force, and said in a deep voice: "From another angle, we are actually in the same area as the earth. Although the Red Dragon Planet is suitable for evolutionary people, the biological limit here seems to be only able to reach the beta level. Yellow and white hedrons have been produced, and we have never found any other colors. This means that we can't get raw materials from normal sources, and we can't get gamma-level evolutionary power. β
If you bury your secret in your heart alone, you'll go crazy after a long time. Here, Tong Yanfeng and Qin Wuyi are "worker bees" who can share secrets with Su Hao, just like when he was on Earth, he often communicated with Wang Qinian.
"Black particles have been on the alert. The source of the signal was originally just a white pyramid deep in the central mountain range, and when I walked here, the warning direction of the black particles shifted slightly and became scattered. I asked them, but they couldn't tell themselves. I just feel that the source of danger is no longer concentrated. If it is explained in a graded way, then the white pyramid still belongs to the highest grade of red, and this forest under our feet, this mountain range, belongs to a slight level of yellow. β
This is definitely not Su Hao's nonsense. When he first came into contact with the dark red pulp in the forest, the black particles had already warned him. That thing is not poisonous, and Saka the Ripper himself bluntly said that the slurry is harmless to it, and it purely exudes a strong **** effect. Maybe it's the different reactions of different species to substances, along the way, Su Hao didn't have the slightest feeling of accelerated secretion of adrenaline and male hormones, but when a spider mutant appeared behind him, and saw the four plump and huge ****, as well as the female genitalia that were covered with black coarse hair in the middle of his legs, exuding a strong stench, Su Hao suddenly felt that the male symbol on his lower body had faintly shown signs of rigidity.
