Chapter 5: Angels in Hell
The monster's sharp and fishy upper limbs struck Du Jin quickly, and the monster figure in Du Jin's pupils expanded rapidly, as if the god of death in hell was attacking him, ready to harvest his fragile life.
"Looks like I'm going to stay here completely............"
Du Jin's desire for life gradually collapsed, he didn't think that his body could remain intact under the sharpness that could penetrate the metal, he slowly closed his eyes, ready to accept fate, the beauty of the past quickly passed through his mind, and the unbearable past was also relieved by Du Jin at this moment, it was obvious that he didn't want to die with all kinds of hatred and regret.
"Ah, no, I'm afraid this is not the human world I am familiar with, it should be considered a different world, right?"
He thought to himself, and then his whole body relaxed and began to face the impending death, and almost at the same time that the monster's limbs were about to touch Du Jin, the alloy wall behind him suddenly slashed open, and a pair of hands pulled Du Jin into it, and the bone blades on the monster's limbs were almost close to Du Jin's head, scratching on the alloy wall and making a piercing grinding sound.
"Roar--"
The monster screams like unwillingness when it sees its prey being "taken away" under its eyes, and its lower limbs move quickly into the space leaked out after sliding open the alloy wall, trying to tear apart its escaped prey and the "man" who rescued its prey.
"---- ----- poof"
Du Jin looked at the monster in front of him when he was about to step into the space where he was now, the thick alloy wall quickly closed, and the monster's body was instantly squeezed in half, due to the monster's own forward inertia, the other half of its body continued to fall forward on Du Jin's legs, which made Du Jin's whole body reveal a bad cold, and he moved the monster's corpse away with his hands and feet, leaving only the viscous "blood" full of hands and legs proving that this monster once existed.
"I didn't expect you to survive the attack of the Splitters to survive here, Dr. Du Jin, you can impress me!"
A soft and resolute female voice came into Du Jin's ears from behind, but this taunt did not bring Du Jin any discomfort, on the contrary, it made him jump up like a natural sound, and the gratitude to the woman behind him, the panic of escaping death and the joy of finding the "same kind", all kinds of emotions superimposed on Du Jin left tears full of emotion.
The woman behind Du Jin noticed his tearful side face, coughed lightly, and said unnaturally:
"Ahem--I didn't expect Dr. Du to be so "vulnerable", I don't mean anything else, I just want to tease you, after all, in the case of being surrounded by those corpse mutants, the depressed mood also needs to be adjusted................"
"Nope! You misunderstood what I meant, thank you for saving me, you are like an angel in hell, thank you very much..........."
Du Jin heard that the woman misunderstood herself, so she immediately turned around and said with gratitude, for the person who saved his life, Du Jin only has gratitude and friendliness at the moment, whether it is the precise time control of dragging himself into the room, or the wisdom and courage of crushing the monster with the alloy wall door, it is quite consistent with the image of the warrior in his mind, and when he turned around, he found that the woman who saved himself was very different from the "warrior" he imagined:
With a white face, pale eyebrows, a beautiful nose bridge, pale red lips, and her quiet eyes suddenly have a bottomless feeling like an ocean, a lock of beautiful black hair tied into a "ball" is tied behind her head, and she is wearing a dark brown combat uniform, no! Perhaps this full-body combat uniform is already considered to be the point of outer armor.
The dark and cool black metal guard plate and the heavy sense of security made Du Jinmeng think that if he was wearing such armor, maybe he could fight that monster hand-to-hand, after all, he had been practicing various fighting skills with his retired father and grandfather who had served in the army since he was a child, and even when he was admitted to the military academy military training competition, he almost knocked over the instructor who was fighting against him (of course, it was to estimate the face of the instructor, otherwise pretending to be too forced would easily cause unnecessary trouble, and he could only "regret defeat" to the instructor at the last moment).
Seeing Du Jin's slightly surprised look, the woman asked a little strangely:
"What? Dr. Du, you don't recognize me? I'm the head of the security team in charge of your lab before, so I've met many times, right! Dr. Du, weren't you on the research deck preparing to leave in an escape pod, how did you escape here? I remember that the captain had blocked the transport lines between the decks. ”
Hearing the woman's words, Du Jin instantly got several useful information:
"Our language is at least incomprehensible, and it's hard to get an alien language that we don't understand; Then my identity should belong to a researcher with the same name as me and a certain amount of power, otherwise I would not have sent a security team to protect my personal laboratory; Now that the ship has been cordoned off, traffic is blocked, and there is no way back to the research deck where my body was before, and this is obviously another area; Finally, there is a way to escape from this ship, which is to escape through some kind of escape pod, I don't know if this method is feasible now! And it seems that I didn't have a good relationship with this security captain before, so I have to get in as much of a relationship as possible! ”
Du Jin quickly sorted out this information, and then pretended to be dazed and responded with a frightened look:
"Sorry! I seem to have been hit on the head by someone before, and my previous memories are blurred, and the only memory is that I woke up in this corridor and met that kind of monster, and I came here after killing one, and then I was rescued by you, lady, thank you very much for your help to me, although I have lost many memories, but I feel that we may have had some bad misunderstanding before, and I apologize to you here. I hope you can forgive me. ”
The woman listened to Du Jin's "sincere" words, and her mood seemed to be better, although she didn't want to admit it, but her former boss apologized and thanked her at this time, which gave her a good sense of respect in her heart, as for what Du Jin said about being attacked and amnesia, she didn't doubt the imagination, in her subconscious, Du Jin, as a scientific research officer, would not lie in this regard, not to mention that there were only two people here and there was no conspiracy, even if she was confident, she would easily knock down the man in front of her, So she bowed her hand and said with a slight smile:
"It's okay, it's just some trivial things, I'm basically not angry, saving Dr. Du is also out of my professional ethics, after all, the security personnel are to protect the crew, and they don't need to be too thankful for anything, as for your amnesia.........."
The woman was silent for a moment, and said in a sympathetic tone:
"It's actually your luck to forget those bad memories, after all, the events when these corpse mutants broke out are not good memories, by the way, my name is Li Mengyan, I don't need to be called Ms., it's too blunt."
