Chapter 55: The Hunt Begins
The plot of this Predator inherits the old version of the Predator, so this is a sequel movie, not a reboot! In addition, this sequel is not related to derivative works such as Predator vs. Alien.
Therefore, the Predator is not a completely unfamiliar existence to some people on Earth, and Isabel knows that the information about the Predator comes from the report of Major Ducky, the protagonist in the first part.
In the jungle, hunting! It reminded her of what the report had said, and if that was the case, they were in big trouble.
Royce noticed Isabel's strangeness, but he didn't say anything, and he was sure that even if he asked, the woman wouldn't tell the truth.
Unexpectedly, Louie suddenly broke the matter: "You guessed it, right?"
Isabel looked at Louie and deliberately put on a 'I don't know what you're talking about?', but unfortunately her acting skills were too embarrassing and had the opposite effect.
"For a lot of people, those guys are no secret, and now it seems that they are no longer satisfied with looking for targets, but are actively hunting for suitable prey. ”
"......" said it so clearly that Isabel realized that it was useless to pretend any longer: "You think that those guys captured us?"
"Very likely!" Louis washed his face again, and then let the cool stream flow on his body without wiping it: "The visions here make me wonder if we are still on Earth now. ”
“......”
This is an unacceptable speculation in the bottom of his heart, Royce doesn't want to believe it at all, but all kinds of abnormal situations keep reminding him that what Louis said is likely to be the truth: "Anyway, let's go to a high place to see the situation first, maybe stand high enough to know where we are!"
Instead of sharing this conversation with the other 'companions', the three of them continued to lead the way in front, and soon came across several cages parachuted down, scattered and scattered, and these cages were all empty at this point.
"I have a bad premonition!"
Everyone looked at this iron cage and always felt that something bad was going to happen.
Royce didn't say anything, just glanced at Isabel and Louie, and continued to lead the way.
"Wait!"
I don't know how long I walked, but Louis suddenly motioned for everyone to stop. Since coming into this world, he has struggled to recall the details of the film.
He couldn't remember a lot of the details very clearly, and he couldn't be sure if what he remembered was right or wrong, but he remembered some of the big plots (thrilling parts) very well.
For example, when everyone is moving to a higher place, the first danger they encounter is not an attack by the Predator, but a series of traps.
The trap was very interesting, so Louis remembered it, and he had been carefully observing along the way, and the trap setting and detection skills he had learned from Brian Mills and Henry Duka had been greatly exercised, and with his own cultivation of the Force, when he concentrated on finding something, his observation power was far beyond that of ordinary people.
In fact, if an elite soldier like Royce is really careful to observe, he can also find the problem, but the long jungle trek has made everyone's mental state very poor, and Royce can only ensure that the route he passes through is okay.
But this is nothing for Louis, who can not only find out that the route he is passing through is fine, but also carefully observe the situation around him.
This time, he saw the traces of a trap in front of Mombasa.
"Mombasa, back off!"
Everyone didn't know what Louie had discovered, but no one showed his personality at this time, including the person concerned, Mombasa, who obediently followed Louie's instructions.
Louis motioned for Mombasa to back away and used the eagle's eyes to look around, the eagle's eyes not only allowed him to see objects farther away, but also made his vision very powerful, noticing many details.
"Everyone, move to Royce...... Move slowly...... Watch your feet and don't touch anything!"
Louie took a closer look to make sure that Royce was standing in the safest position, and told them all to move that way.
But Royce's position was not completely safe, and he also instructed Royce to move three meters to the side, and when everyone was standing together according to his instructions, Louis raised his rifle and fired several shots at several positions.
When the trap is triggered, a series of attacks are initiated, one after the other, and even if you dodge once, you may be forced into the second trap, one by one, until you kill the enemy in the trap.
With a few shots from Louie, everyone saw a huge piece of wood smashed down from a height, and looking at the speed at which the stake fell, ordinary people would definitely die if they were hit!
And that's just the beginning, if you want to dodge the stake down, you'll have to run to the sides, and sharp cones will rain down in both directions, all the way into the distance.
Everyone stood in a safe place, watching in horror at what was happening in front of them, if it wasn't for Louie's timely reminder, this set of traps wouldn't have killed a few people?
Mombasa was even more covered with cold sweat and immediately thanked Louie.
Louis smiled and nodded, and then found a few more traps in the direction where the wooden vertebrae fell: a deep pit covered by various plants, filled with sharp wooden thorns, and a steep slope that could easily slip hidden a board full of wooden spikes, and anyone who slipped and fell here would be slapped with a face full of wooden spikes.
Looking around, Royce and Isabelle, who were carefully searching, also found the guy who had set the trap: a corpse.
The crowd looked at the corpse, and after observing the environment to the left and right, they came to the conclusion that this man was in a vantage point, where he could observe all corners and attack.
"He's ready to fight his back here......"
In the original plot, the protagonists didn't know who this guy was up against, but now Royce and Isabel already know that he was trying to deal with the Predator.
Information recovered from the body determined that it was a member of the U.S. Special Forces who was supposed to be assigned to Afghanistan.
Isabel swallowed unconsciously, things were going in the direction she least wanted them to. She prayed in her heart more than once: Louis was wrong in his guess! But the events that have taken place now confirm Louis's speculation.
Without saying much, the team continued on their way, and they finally came to a high enough spot to find a cliffside with a great view.
Here, there is no dense forest to obstruct the view, everyone sees the magical scene in the distant sky, and even those who don't want to believe it know that they are not on Earth at this time.
"It seems...... We need a new plan. ”
The picture in front of him not only made Royce understand what was going on in the previous strange situation, but also further confirmed Louie's judgment: they were most likely caught by aliens on an alien planet, and then engaged in a cruel hunting game!
"How much do you know about that kind of alien?"
By this time, there was no need to hide it, and Royce immediately turned to ask Isabel and Louie. It was also at this time that the others reacted to these people, and they already knew what situation they were facing.
"Hey, do you know anything, why don't you tell us?" Stan was the first to express his displeasure, while the others didn't say anything, but they all reached for their weapons, which showed their attitudes.
"Because it was all just speculation before, and we can't be sure!" Royce explained briefly, and then threw the pot on Isabel and Louie: "And I don't know much, these two should really know the situation." ”
"Wait!" Just as Isabel was about to say what she knew, Louie suddenly stopped her: "I'll talk about it later, there is a situation!"
Everyone was already nervous, and as soon as Louis said this, everyone raised their weapons. However, everyone was on guard against each other, and it was only when Louie aimed his guns at the dense forest behind them that they slowly turned around and aimed their weapons at the jungle that seemed to devour everything.
There was silence, and the doctor Edwin wondered if Louie was changing the subject, and he didn't have a weapon in his hand, so he turned his head and asked Louie next to him, "What are we guarding against?"
"Anything...... It's coming!"
Everyone heard the sound, and it seemed that something was moving through the jungle at high speed, and it was getting louder and louder, whatever it was, it was clearly coming towards them.
"Don't shoot! Lined up with weapons!Niclay goes to the edge!" Louie pushed Niklai, who was standing beside him, to stand at the edge of the line, so that he could shoot diagonally at his target and use his firepower to the advantage.
Fortunately, the soldiers who mastered the heavy firepower at the scene were soldiers with a certain military literacy, and they could carry out orders well at this time.
Almost as Niklai stood on the edge, a strange-looking monster with no telling whether it was a dog or a boar, and spiked all over its body, burst out.
"Fire!"
Seeing the monster rushing out of the dense forest, everyone pulled the trigger in their hands, and the rifle in Louie's hand and the automatic shotgun in Royce's hand became the main firepower in the front.
Mombasa and Kuchilo's automatic firepower is responsible for filling in the gaps, Isabel in the middle can calmly support her teammates with sniper rifles, and the doctor and death row prisoner are responsible for shouting 666!
In the original plot, these two guys saw the monster rushing over, and they ran around in fright, but now there are cliffs behind them and on both sides, and there is no place to run, but they let them stay here honestly.
At this moment, Louis suddenly let go of the rifle in his hand and let it fall to the ground, took the lightsaer from his waist and swung it down behind him!
