Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 146 Close Combat

There are a total of eight "sea anemone heads" chased to the mining area, two large and six small. The two large ones are nearly three meters long, while the six small ones are not far different from humans in body shape.

Since the miners had already arranged to evacuate in advance and the materials in the mining area had been almost emptied, it was difficult for Ke Lan to build a temporary trench even if he wanted to.

Compared with the narrow tunnels in the depths, the only advantage of the mining area may be that it is relatively spacious. At least when facing acid attacks, Ke Lan and the others have enough space to move and dodge.

"How much ammunition do you have left? I... I'm almost running out of ammunition." The hound's voice was a little heavy. During the retreat, he mainly relied on his firepower to suppress the pursuing "Anemone Head". Although the hound carried It has the most ammunition, but it also consumes the most.

"I still have four and a half magazines of rifle ammunition, three high-explosive grenades, and a plastic foam mine." Ke Lan quickly checked his equipment and said.

"There are only the last three rounds of shotguns left, and there are still twelve rounds of single-ended bullets, but I have used up all the projectiles." The situation on Zhuoligetu's side is not optimistic either.

"Leighton, what about you?" Ke Lan turned to ask Leighton, who was shooting at the anemone's head.

"My rifle still has two magazines..." Before Layton could finish speaking, the assault rifle in his hand made a crisp sound of empty magazine hanging up. "Okay, now this is the last magazine."

"A good news or a bad news, which one are you going to hear first?" Ke Lan took out two magazines of his rifle and threw them to Layton.

"What are you doing? Say it quickly. If you don't say it, you won't have a chance to say it." Hound said impatiently. His electromagnetic bombs had already been used up, and the machine gun in his hand was being fired during the retreat. The right arm armor was abandoned deep in the tunnel.

"The bad news is that we can only fight these guys in close combat." Ke Lan licked his chapped lips and pulled out a high-frequency particle vibration dagger from his waist - his armor was equipped with too many detectives. testing instruments and communication equipment, so weapons and equipment can only be chosen as lightweight as possible.

"What about the good news?" Ivan glanced at Ke Lan. His usual melee weapons were the lancets he often used on daily basis, but the skin of these monsters was obviously not something that the lancet blade could cut open. of.

"The good news is... if you're in close combat, you don't have to worry about long-distance acid attacks." Ke Lan had already discovered when he retreated just now that when the sea anemone in front approached them, the sea anemone in the rear was Aoi Tou no longer spits acid at them - this means that these monsters' own skin cannot resist the corrosion of acid. The only ones that can directly come into contact with acid are the organs that secrete acid and the surrounding circle. Just fleshy tentacles.

"But do you think we have an advantage in close combat?... Don't forget how the previous batches of hunters were killed..." The hound held the heavy sword tightly in both hands, staring at the monsters that were approaching step by step despite the hail of bullets.

"Those hunters who were equipped with power armor were killed by the acid at the beginning. The rest were naturally no match for them with only their bodies, but we are different." Ke Lan placed the shock dagger in front of him. "At least we haven't had any casualties so far, right?"

"That's right, we are not the kind of newbies." Hound said as if to cheer himself up, "What should I say? Let's go together?"

"Get rid of the two big ones first. Akira Asano and I are responsible for the one on the right. You, Layton, and Zhuoligetu will deal with the one on the left. Ivan, just protect yourself." Ke Lan said.

"Okay." The hound nodded.

"Three, two, one... up!" Ke Lan roared, and the jetpack behind the power armor spurted out two blue flames. He suddenly jumped into the air more than two meters high. He raised the dagger and struck it at the chosen target!

The sea anemone head reacted quickly. Just when Ke Lan jumped up, it had already raised its head and shot out a mouthful of acid. Ke Lan couldn't use the force to dodge in the air. Even if he used it, The thrust of the jetpack was too late...

Just when the acid was about to hit Ke Lan, a stream of light flashed in front of him. The acid immediately burned and turned into ashes in the blink of an eye. The heavy powered armor was In the next moment, he stepped hard on the anemone head!

The weight of the armor itself plus the potential energy of falling from a height immediately trampled the sea anemone's head to the ground. The energy shield that had cooled down was turned on again. Ke Lan directly attached the shield to it, and there was a burst of barbecue-like energy. "Chichi" sounded.

But soon, a huge force burst out from Hai Anemou's body. Ke Lan and his armor were thrown away and crashed into a pile of plastic barrels used to hold industrial waste.

"Ke Lan! These things don't seem to feel pain! They can't feel pain!" The hound shouted loudly. Ke Lan raised his head and looked towards him, and saw that most of Zhuoligetu's chain sword had been embedded in the other side. There was a sea anemone head in the shoulder, but the monster was not affected at all. It waved its upper limbs wildly and tore off most of the outer armor on Zhuoligetu's chest.

"You have to be fatally injured to be useful." Asano Akira said, his voice still had that calm feeling, but his speed had already reached the extreme. Ke Lan only saw an afterimage surrounding the man who was about to kill him. The flying guy turned around, and the anemone-like tentacles on its neck were separated from its body!

"Boom!"

The torso without its "head" crashed to the ground. From the beginning of the battle until now, this was the first sea anemone head that they had killed.

Asano Akira, who successfully completed the kill, quickly retreated to Ke Lan's side. He punched the blade on the ground and gasped for air. Apart from the previous fight with the flesh centipede in the stone chamber, Ke Lan was still It was the first time I saw him looking so embarrassed.

"It consumes a lot, I need to rest for a while...help me buy some time." Asano Akira gasped and said to Ke Lan.

"Okay, how much time do you need?" Ke Lan got up from the ground and stood in front of Asano Akira. He knew that Akira Asano's swordsmanship was completely different from the kind taught in the kendo gym. This miraculous skill was entirely due to the "failed experiment" at the time. His swordsmanship had a profound influence on the spirit. The consumption of energy is much higher than that of physical strength, and the more powerful the killing move, the more so.

Seeing the same kind being killed, the six smaller sea anemone heads invariably let out bursts of sharp and piercing screams... But they did not retreat, but pushed towards Ke Lan step by step... On the other hand, when facing the hound, the three of them were already at a disadvantage when facing another three-meter-level anemone head. They were retreating steadily under the opponent's attacks. Even Leighton had just replaced him. One day's new robotic arm was completely cut off, and the ocher-red armor fragments even flew to Ke Lan's feet.

"One to six...how to fight this?"
