Alien Relic Hunter

Meanwhile, on the other side of the residential area.

Facing the physically powerful mutant, Ke Lan did not fall into a desperate situation as most onlookers expected... It was not even a hard fight. This second battle was so easy that even Ke Lan himself felt Somewhat incredible.

Although this mutant is very powerful, he is just a miner who lives at the bottom of society. His understanding of fighting is limited to street gangsters, and he has never received any systematic fighting training. .

This advantage of his can be used to suppress people who have never learned fighting, but when it comes to Lian Jiazi, it is completely insufficient.

No matter how powerful the power is, if you don't know how to use it rationally, it is just a brute force. After getting the dagger, the mutant rushed towards Ke Lan. There was no skill or plan in his attack, and his movements were full of flaws. The microgravity environment also weakens the impact of the power gap to a very small range.

Ke Lan easily eliminated this opponent without even needing to rely on Shi Zhan's power.

Ke Lan did not kill him, but only severed the tendons in the mutant's limbs and wrists. With the mutant's recovery speed, this injury would be restored to its original state in just a few days.

But the followers of the Servant of God had no intention of sparing his life - when Ke Lan knocked away the dagger in the mutant's hand and kicked him out, those followers swarmed up and used sharp steel forks to kill the mutant. A mutant was nailed to the ground, and the spray of blood instantly dyed the cloaks of these followers red.

"The loser will be sacrificed to the great god." The servant of the god said in an unchanging tone, "You passed the second round."

Ke Lan's thumb pad gently rubbed the rough surface of the dagger... He knew that the other party must have doubts about his identity - even though he had tried his best to master the professional fighting skills in the previous battle. Cover it up, but eventually something is exposed.

Anyone who knows at least a little bit about fighting can see that Ke Lan's fighting moves are very precise and efficient. This is the essence condensed through countless generations of hard work. It is not at all like those laymen who rely on online moves. The so-called "diagram" can be mastered.

To reach Ke Lan's level, it would take at least two years of training, and it is also a top training class with extremely expensive registration fees. Miners like them have probably never even heard of the names of these training classes... These things belong to two completely different worlds from their lives.

Even if some miners have this hobby, it is impossible for them to pay for a course that costs them half a month's salary... People like miners who are at the bottom of Ark's society must first solve their own food and clothing problems, and then Only then are you qualified to think about other things.

"But this guy doesn't seem to be eager to expose me..." Ke Lan stared at the servant of God more than ten meters away, and the servant of God raised his head and glanced at the miners kneeling in the gaps between the scaffolding - obviously, he was preparing for Ke Lan Choosing an opponent for the final battle.

"It's a pity that this guy is wearing a helmet, so you can't see his expression and eyes at all. Otherwise, we can collect some information." Ke Lan sighed inwardly.

The servant's gaze stopped. He slowly raised his arm and pointed at someone: "You, come here."

This time, the servant of God chose a "newcomer" who arrived at the sick village with Ke Lan. But what made Ke Lan speechless was that he was so lucky that he happened to choose one of the two "missionaries"!

The chosen one was the "preacher" who had the "emblem" tattooed on his neck. He was a tall and thin middle-aged man. His arms were covered with thick masks from the wrists to the bottom of the elbow joints. There were dark red blood stains on the bandage, which seemed to tell others that the flesh and blood under the bandage had been severely ulcerated - but Ke Lan could see at a glance that these blood stains were completely stained later: the outermost layer The bandages were most thoroughly stained with blood, and each layer below them became cleaner than the next.

The blood stains clearly seeped from the outside in. If there was really something wrong with his arms, the staining marks on the bandages should be exactly the opposite.

At least that’s what Ke Lan did with the bandage wrapped around his palm...

This "missionary", like Ke Lan, is also a disguised patient... but compared to those real patients, there is something more deadly in his body.

Seed of erosion.

The mutant's body has not been dragged away yet. Ke Lan knows that the person selected in this kind of sacrificial ceremony has only two choices: victory or death. Regardless of whether he kills the missionary or not, the erosion in his body will The seeds will eventually be released.

Ke Lan did not carry any weapons made of stone cones from seabed caves. The only thing that could kill the erosion seeds was the sword disguised as a guide stick in Asano Akira's hand. But if Asano Akira took action, Then their identity is basically completely exposed.

The opponent in the third game was much more difficult to deal with than the mutant who only had brute strength.

The missionary also seemed a little surprised, but the surprised look only stayed on his face for less than a second before completely disappearing. He jumped down from the scaffolding and picked up the dagger that Ke Lan had knocked away.

"If I kill this person, do I have to win two more rounds to survive?" He looked at the servant of God and asked in a deep voice.

"Anyone who wants to become a warrior of the great god must win three games." The servant of the god said, his tone was very stiff, and a sentence that was not long was broken into five short sentences by unnatural pauses. This could not help but deepen Ke Lan's previous suspicions.

The "preacher" didn't say anything, but rushed directly to Ke Lan - strengthened by the erosion seed, his strength and speed were not weaker than the mutant just now, and he seemed to be completely There was no intention to hide it, and all his strength was unleashed from the beginning - there was originally a distance of nearly ten meters between the two, but in the blink of an eye, this distance was reduced to zero.

The missionary held the dagger in both hands, leaned forward sharply, and the muscles in his arms and shoulders exerted force at the same time, driving the sharp blade directly into Ke Lan's heart - he did not make a tentative attack at all. This kind of fighting style of fighting for your life!

This thrust was so swift and violent that it was impossible for Ke Lan to block it with the broken piece of iron in his hand. He could only choose to dodge or counterattack.

"Time Stop" was turned on, and everything around him instantly turned into a black and white freeze frame, and the missionary's figure was fixed in mid-air, and the sharp dagger tip was a distance away from Ke There was less than thirty centimeters between Lan's chest.

"This assassination posture uses the forearm as a lever, and the three joints of the wrist, elbow, and shoulder advance together. The advantage is that it explodes quickly and accurately, but the disadvantage is that it cannot change the move. No matter which direction he wants to move the tip of the knife, both arms One or two of these six joints will always interfere with it, unless the strength of the waist is used, but this can easily cause the entire person to lose balance."

Ke Lan analyzed the missionary's attack pattern in a very short period of time, and then came to the conclusion that this guy, obviously like the mutant, had not received much formal training in hand-to-hand combat.

But for this missionary, it may not matter whether he has received formal training. With his strength and speed, even if he doesn't know any moves, he still poses a very high level of threat - if Ke Lan doesn't stop. , facing this thrust, the situation may be very dangerous.

"If it were me, I would choose to charge forward sideways, hold the dagger in my right hand, and use the explosive force when turning my waist to stab diagonally upward. This not only expands the attack range and facilitates change of moves, but also keeps me adjusting. During the positioning process, you can avoid the opponent's counterattack to the greatest extent... No, I am the one who is passively defending now, what do I want to do?"

Ke Lan glanced at the tip of the knife that was close at hand. It would be difficult to avoid the knife with regular dodge movements, unless Ke Lan could perform a martial arts action called "Iron Banqiao", which nailed both feet firmly. When staying on the ground, the entire upper body must be tilted back significantly to allow the opponent's stab to fall into the air.

Then, whether he chooses to attack the opponent's ribs or flanks, Ke Lan will take back the initiative and create a huge advantage.

But the problem is...he doesn't know how to "iron bridge".

This thing belongs to the category of traditional Chinese martial arts, and he mainly learned modern fighting techniques derived from military fighting techniques. This kind of fighting technique pays attention to practicality. Like Iron Banqiao, it is more gorgeous than practical, and requires long-term hard training. The "unique skills" of back strength and flexibility are impossible to include.

If Ke Lan forcibly uses an "iron bridge" now, there is a high probability that he will hear a "click" sound coming from his spine, or his feet will simply leave the ground...

Wait a moment? Feet off the ground? !

Ke Lan was stunned. This is a microgravity environment. There are not as many restrictions as there are on the ground. The biggest difficulty of "Iron Banqiao" is the stability of the footwall and the bending of the waist. But in a microgravity environment, this You can ignore both points!

He just needs to "lay flat"!

So, at the moment after the time stop, Ke Lan fell straight backwards, and his feet lifted off the ground, and then he kicked the missionary heavily on the abdomen.

The missionary was kicked directly by Ke Lan and flew towards the top wall of the space station. In mid-air, with no help, he could only move his limbs in vain, watching helplessly as the distance between him and Ke Lan was eliminated. Instantly zoom out.

The missionary failed to touch the top wall. After flying more than ten meters, he was stopped by the wires as dense as a spider web. Everyone only heard a crackling sound and several silver snake-like streaks. The lightning flashed in the darkness, and then, there was a smell of burnt flesh wafting over.

"I really got an electric shock..." Ke Lan raised his head, glanced at the messy wires above his head that were enough to drive him to obsessive-compulsive disorder, and took two steps back to one side - if he accidentally hit a broken wire, If so, that would be a bit too unfair.

However, it can be regarded as a miracle that this kind of circuit, which looks like a ball of yarn played by a cat, does not burn out due to short circuit.

The missionary fell heavily to the ground, and his exposed skin was covered with burnt marks of electric shock.

Unlike the civilian standard voltage of 220 volts on the Ark, the power supply lines on the space station are all 450 volts of industrial voltage, which is much more dangerous and is more than ten times the safe voltage of the human body.

If this kind of voltage were directly contacted, the heart of an average person would stop beating within a few seconds... However, the person who was electrocuted this time was not an ordinary person.

Strictly speaking, he can't even be called a human... This is just a container, a container used to host the dangerous biological weapons of Alpha Civilization.

Sure enough, the missionary struggled to get up from the ground. He looked at Ke Lan with great resentment, and then stabbed the dagger into his chest with all his strength!

Although he did not die immediately, the strong current still completely destroyed his body tissues. He could clearly feel that his organs were rapidly failing, and the erosion seeds parasitic in his body began to stir.

He can no longer control this thing. It won't be long before the parasitic seed will enter a period of rapid transformation and break out of its "shell". Instead of doing this, it is better to take the initiative to liberate it... and kill everyone here!

The missionary roared, turning the handle of the dagger hard with both hands, crushing the still-beating heart. The next second, countless tiny, pink, newborn tentacles even covered in mucus pierced the heart. It took off his skin and "grew" out of his body!

"Paji."

His eyeballs were pushed out of their sockets and ejected, drawing a bloody arc in the air. Instead, two tough tentacles as thick as a handful emerged from the sockets.

"Trouble... we still can't avoid this situation..." Ke Lan began to retreat. He was hesitating whether to let Asano Akira take action - if left alone, this corrosive species might really kill everyone here. people.

Forget about killing them all, the key is that the bodies of these people will also be corroded. This thing is like the zombie virus in Resident Evil. It will not take long to spread to the entire space station. By then, Ke Lan and the others need to face Yes, there are thousands of erosion seeds.

"Is there any other solution... If the identity must be exposed, how to deal with the aftermath..."

Just when Ke Lan was thinking hard about how to deal with it, the servant of God wearing power armor suddenly moved!

He ran towards the missionary who was in a state of sudden change. The heavy armor on his body collided with each other, making a clanging sound unique to metal. Ke Lan noticed that the engine of the power armor was completely silent. This was A scrapped powered armor, a heavy armor that was forcibly dragged up by the body inside!

"Stab-" The sound of tearing flesh and blood was like ripping silk. The right hand of the servant of God had penetrated the missionary's chest in an instant, and in his hand, he was holding the "core" that looked like a glass ball.

"Heretics from the ground...this is not a place you can touch."

The servant of the god said slowly, tightening his five fingers at the same time, and the "core" shattered in response!

Those wildly dancing tentacles stopped moving almost as soon as the "core" shattered. Then, they quickly withered and rotted, turning into pus all over the ground.

"This is impossible!" Ke Lan stared at the hand of the servant of God in shock. That hand was also covered with a gauntlet matching the power armor. The surface of the gauntlet was covered with scarlet rust, and pus and blood seeped into the joints of the armor. inside, and then drifting down along the edge.

The hard "core" was so shattered, really crushed like a glass ball.

There was no stone cone from the seabed cave, nor active cells from flesh-eating worms. How on earth did he kill the erosion seed? !
