Chapter 1 Distress

Next Chapter

The ochre-red ground, the hills and ravines, the gravel are all over, and the heat waves hit people.

Dilapidated mechs can be seen everywhere, many behemoths similar to space carriers, space shuttles, and satellite wreckage, standing horizontally and vertically, some have been smashed to pieces, and some have good outlines, but they have rusted and parts scattered all over the place. Some small and medium-sized aircraft seem to have just burst and are still emitting green smoke, and slight local explosions occur from time to time. Judging from the position where they landed and the stiff posture, most of them were burned down by high-energy weapons, and some did not rule out that the machines failed and fell to the ground on their own. After burning, the green smoke rises vertically, stretching straight into the red air for several tens of zhang, which is magnificent.

The corpses of huge monsters were scattered all over the place, and the death was horrific, and the muscles of individual dinosaur-like big guys were corroded, revealing the white bones of the forest. Many hairless mice with intact corpses, hairless rats the size of buffaloes, toads with white hair all over their bodies, nearly two meters in size, human-headed snake-body monsters with four legs and bucket-like bodies, etc., all bled to death, and the appearance of death remained terrified, and the purple blood was dried on the hot ochre-red gravel, glowing with a disgusting pale blue. Flies the size of fists buzzed and scurried around. This is the only living creature that can be seen on this strange planet.

The air was filled with a rancid stench, and an unspeakable smell that was even more disgusting than the rancid stench.

The "Bingguo" space carrier was blown to this inexplicable planet by a cosmic hurricane. After landing smoothly, Zhao Bingguo instructed the captain Wu Gang to check the equipment. Surprisingly, everything was working as usual, as if it had been a deliberate detour.

Zhao Bingguo is the number one person in the Confederacy on Earth, called the nodpole, and the only duke.

His other identity is a high disciple of the Taoist Master of Kunlun Mountain, and he is naturally an extraordinary figure.

The "Bingguo" is his special car. I was returning from a trip that day when I suddenly encountered a rare high-altitude hurricane.

This hurricane of unknown origin forced the "Bingguo" to stay on another planet, and Zhao Bingguo believes that there must be a mystery in this.

Looking out of the transparent porthole, this is a dead planet. The sky is always red, the ground is ochre-red, radiating infinite heat, and there is no sign of life between heaven and earth.

In the distance, on a slightly higher hill, there are dozens of leafless trees. From afar, it looks like it is only a tree trunk, but the shortest one is more than two feet tall, and the tallest one is twice as tall. The body of the tree was pitch black, the trunk was straight, and when you got closer, you could see that several branches of the tree pointed at the red sky like steel thorns at the fork, and there seemed to be something hanging on the branches.

It's not the lifeless iron trees that make people creepy, but the objects hanging from the branches.

Zhao Bingguo, who came down from the ramp of the "Bingguo" aerospace carrier, did not bring an entourage. Covering his mouth and nose with one hand, he led Jose, the wolf dog that had been with him for many years, and walked cautiously towards the high slope.

The wolfdogs screeched, their bright red tongues sticking out, and the clattering footsteps of their field boots hitting the ground were monotonous.

Near the top of the slope, the smell of blood in the air was stronger, more smelly, and more unbearable. José whined, refusing to take another step forward, no matter how much he pulled the rope around his neck.

The main reason for going uphill is to see what is hanging from the tree, and to determine whether this place is suitable for development as a new base.

As soon as he looked up, as far as his eyes could see, Zhao Bingguo couldn't help retching.

There are things hanging from the trees, but they are not ordinary objects, but the stumps of people or animals······ The things that had been hung up were so fresh, many of them were still steaming, some of the muscles were still spasming, and the blood was bright red, flowing onto the trunks and staining the tall trunks black.

Don't dare to take another look, consciously and quickly leave. He found that these objects hanging on the trees were not cut by knives on ordinary people and animals, but were torn apart by force, and the fractures were extremely irregular, and these parts were at least twice as large as normal people or animals. Some of the stumps still have tooth marks, as if they have been bitten or torn.

Zhao Bingguo, who was extremely frightened, his heart beat to his throat, and his hands and feet were a little disobedient. Jose began to flee desperately, and the leash turned into José pulling at his master.

Zhao Bingguo, who almost fell several times while going downhill, was suddenly attracted by a neat footstep, and Jose began to circle around him with a whimper.

Feeling the coercion of something pressing step by step, looking up into the distance, Zhao Bingguo gasped. I saw that a large number of dog-headed ant-body monsters were surrounding him in neat steps, and these monsters taller than people, holding black spears nearly a foot long, began to surround him step by step.

Why? Am I encroaching on your territory, or is it something else? Zhao Bingguo's face turned pale and he suddenly panicked. He wanted to find the heads of these monsters, explain to him that he was just passing by, take a look at the scenery, and leave immediately. But he shouted loudly, and no monster paid attention to him. The fear increased further, and he had to slowly retreat up the hill, his legs trembling.

Ignore the stench and disgusting smell. Zhao Bingguo quietly untied the rope around Jose's neck, combed two handfuls on its neck, and patted its left and right cheeks, meaning that it should not be afraid and see the opportunity to break out of the encirclement.

Jose no longer whined, the Kunlun Mountain Snow Wolf Dog given by the master Tianjizi, the wolf was vigorous, facing the black and oppressive monster, without fear, he jumped on the spot, let out an earth-shattering hiss, his body soared more than twice, and the snow-white wolf stood upright, like a white lightning, more like a white arrow, shooting towards the cluster of monsters that were approaching step by step.

In an instant, the black phalanx was torn open by it, and countless monsters retreated one after another, and those who dared to stand in the way were all bloody and fleshy. Seeing that he was about to break through the phalanx and break out, there were too many ant-body canine-headed monsters, and Jose was once again submerged in a black vortex like a tide. The barking of dogs one after another is terrifying.

At the same time as Jose attacked, Peter took out a laser pistol from his waist and shot at the monster that rushed to the close, while using the radio to notify Wu Gang to come to the rescue.

Wu Gang is the captain of the "Bingguo" and Zhao Bingguo's personal bodyguard. After receiving the news, more than a dozen accompanying security personnel immediately activated the miniature aircraft and left the Helicarrier, appearing in the sky above the canine-headed ant-body monster cluster, in addition to machine gun strafing and laser strikes, and began to throw bombs in an orderly manner. The monsters were hit hard, some scattered and fled, and some resisted stubbornly.

The area centered on Zhao Bingguo is tightly protected by four flying machines, and an impermeable protective net has been established around it, as long as it is a monster that approaches the protective net, it will definitely die.

Although there were fewer enemies, the initiative on the battlefield began to be on Zhao Bingguo's side, and the four aircraft began to protect it, and the rest of the aircraft began to clear the field, opening up a safe passage directly to the "Bingguo".

When everything was proceeding in an orderly manner according to Wu Gang's command, no one noticed that behind the hill, a heavy dark cloud rose up, covering the red sky. The dark clouds were as black as thick ink, and they kept rolling layer by layer, and behind the dark clouds, it seemed that something was adding fuel to the fire.

Zhao Bingguo was surrounded by two guards who were randomly abseiling, and quickly approached the space carrier.

Jose, whose snow-white wolf hair was almost completely stained red with blood, trotted to greet Zhao Bingguo.

When I finally stepped on the gangway, the sound of the field boots hitting the metal gangway was very pleasant.

Inside the "Bingguo," Wu Gang had already started the motor, turned on the weapon system, and was ready to take off at any time.

Suddenly, black clouds quickly filled the sky, and the air flow like a hurricane cut over the "Bingguo" again, and it was pitch black outside the porthole, and Wu Gang was forced to turn off the engine, and then he was dizzy. Zhao Bingguo, who was about to step into the mothership, grinned, and at the same time was blown down by the air flow and fell down the gangway.

In the blink of an eye, the air flow disappeared, the black clouds dispersed, and the dog-headed ant body monsters were all over the field, and the corpses were all over the field, and no one was spared. More than a dozen small flying vehicles that had not had time to evacuate in time were gone.

What made the two guards particularly frightened was that Lord Zhao Bingguo, the Duke of Dianshou, had disappeared without a trace.

On the ochre red planet, everything is quiet again.
