Alien Relic Hunter

As soon as Ke Lan turned the gun, the knife in Asano Akira's arms was unsheathed - the two B-type mutants turned into countless palm-sized pieces of meat in an instant, and the high-speed dancing blades even weaved out the tops of the three people's heads. An airtight curtain blocked out all the splashing blood and pus.

The sword was sheathed, and the entire hall was covered with a layer of blood. Only the three people's bodies and the area under their feet were clean, as if there was an invisible barrier between them and the surrounding environment. of general.

"By the way, that Sakuraina went to the field army camp to look for you, but you turned around and ran back to the Ark with me, leaving the girl in the dark. I'm afraid she was going crazy..." Ke Lan said to Asano Akira casually. said.

"oh."

"Oh, how big are you? Do you have any interest in this girl? It's not a problem to keep hiding like this, right?" Ke Lan said with a bit of hatred.

"Let's talk about it later." Asano Akira said - although the content of this sentence seemed very perfunctory, the tone of saying this sentence was extremely serious.

"You two, can you please stop chatting while you're in action!" At this time, Aya, who was following the two of them, protested, but considering Ke Lan's identity, she had to slow down her tone slightly, "What if? If you are attacked by surprise at this time——"

"What will happen if we are attacked by a sneak attack at this time?" Ke Lan asked, raising his hand and instantly dropping an ordinary corrosive seed that poked its head out from the end of the corridor.

The "time-stop" ability combined with the powerful energy weapon in his hand that can hit wherever he wants will kill the opponent even if he only shows a small head.

Not to mention the twenty B-type mutants, even if the number doubled, Ke Lan and Asano Akira would not feel any pressure. The only thing they need to pay attention to is the black bishops who possess the power of the Holy Word.

"At seven o'clock, behind the wall on the second floor, the distance is nineteen meters." Asano Akira reminded him again.

"Are you coming or am I coming? According to the building structure of this house, it should be a load-bearing wall." Ke Lan said.

"I'll do it." Asano Akira had just finished speaking, but Aya had already jumped up, relying on the jet thrusters on the legs of the power armor to easily jump to the second floor.

It was a corrosive seed that still maintained its human form. Although the container was dead, this monster seemed to have inherited the fighting instinct of the container when he was alive. He held a carbine in each hand and fired at Aya who jumped up to the second floor. .

The warhead made a tinkling sound when it hit the power armor, but the actual effect was just polishing. Upon seeing this, the erosion seed directly dropped the firearm in his hand and grabbed a handful hanging on the wall. The long-handled ax was rounded and struck towards Aya.

Although the ax is a decoration in the mansion, and the ax blade is not edged, it is still made of enough materials. It is not inferior to an actual combat weapon. Even without a sharp edge, it can still have terrifying destructive power when used as a blunt instrument. ——Weapons such as blunt weapons have always been armor-breaking weapons specifically designed to target armor in history.

If Aya was hit by this axe, she would definitely be seriously injured even if she didn't die.

Aya herself didn't know that she couldn't directly receive the opponent's attack. The two pieces of armor on her waist suddenly opened outwards, and two micro-propellers simultaneously sprayed out a meter-long flame, pushing her whole body to move backwards quickly.

"boom!!"

The ax hit the spot where Aya had been a second ago. With the help of the strange power of the Seed of Erosion, the ax directly penetrated the ground on the second floor, and also collapsed an entire floor board on the edge of the corridor. Come down!

The humanoid erosion seed and the floor board fell heavily to the ground on the first floor, and the already overwhelmed container body finally exploded, and countless tentacles rushed out crazily, towards the suspended in mid-air. Aya catches him.

The biggest disadvantage of the micro-propeller is that the fuel storage is limited. If it is not replenished in time, it will misfire for a few seconds at most. Aya can no longer avoid those tentacles at this time. Fortunately, the energy shield of the power armor is activated in time. This saved her from being captured by the tentacles.

After burning away all the tentacles, she had the opportunity to draw out the firearm behind her and shoot at the erosion seeds directly below.

A large number of active warheads penetrated into the body of the corrosive seed. When the deadly toxin flowed into the "core", the monster finally calmed down and gradually turned into a pool of smelly pus.

This is not a B-type mutant, perhaps it can barely be regarded as a relatively special N-type mutant. In addition to being able to use human weapons, in terms of combat power, it is actually not much better than ordinary erosion species.

But even so, this corrosive seed still forced Aya into a somewhat embarrassing situation - killing an ordinary corrosive seed only requires three to five rounds of "enhanced" active ammunition at most. It was enough, but just now in desperation, she just emptied the entire magazine.

Aya couldn't help feeling that her face was a little hot. If it weren't for the metal mask, Ke Lan would have seen a beautiful red face at this time.

"It's a bit reluctant...Team Leader Breya, ah, no, it should be Deputy Minister Breya." Ke Lan teased.

"Sorry..." Aya couldn't help but lower her head. She was indeed a little brave just now. If there were any unnecessary casualties due to her actions, she would be fully responsible.

"Although the monster just now is not very strong in terms of physical strength, its combo of moves is still very clever." Ke Lan tried to smooth things over, "Actually, I can't blame you, but I hope you have more confidence in the two of us... ...You only need to be responsible for helping us hold the battle. If there is anything I need your help with, I will ask."

"...Okay." Aya Breya nodded and took the initiative to retreat behind the two of them.

The three formed a triangular advancing formation, with Ke Lan and Asano Akira in front and Aya behind, and quickly passed through the front hall of the mansion.

After Asano Akira's confirmation, there was no movement in the front hall, but in the courtyard in the center of the house, there was a very strong heartbeat.

The erosion seeds in the rapid transformation and mature stages have no heartbeat and can retain the heart structure. They are probably another kind of monster that is mutated from humans or indigenous creatures.

"So, is this guy in the yard the BOSS?" Ke Lan asked.

"It is very strong...as far as I can hear, it is the strongest one." Asano Akira replied.

"Then what do you think your chances of winning in a duel with this guy are?" Ke Lan asked again.

"Not sure, we'll have to know after fighting." Asano Akira shook his head.

"Should we...should request support?" After hearing what Akira Asano said, Aya suddenly became a little nervous, "The troops of the Security Bureau are outside, and they can break into the mansion within a minute after sending the signal. …”

"It's not necessary." Ke Lan shook his head, "To deal with this kind of monster, the human wave tactic is useless. I think you don't want your subordinates to come in and give away their lives in vain, right?"

"Then how about going up..." Aya stopped mid-sentence. She originally wanted to say "how about asking the people above for help", but she immediately realized that Ke Lan had officially joined the Undead Crew Association. , he is the "man above".

Until now, Aya still has a very strong sense of unreality.

This time Ke Lan was still at the front. He reached out and pushed open the heavy solid wood door leading to the central courtyard.

It has to be said that the financial resources of the Williams family are also at the forefront among the top class of Ark. For example, the courtyard of Miss Soma's mansion is full of a swimming pool, a fountain, plus a few shrubs and trees. I was exhausted. The central courtyard of Williams Mansion is actually like a large botanical garden. Under the semi-covered dome, rare earth plants can be seen everywhere - trees and flowers that have long been extinct in ordinary people's knowledge. It is not known whether the seeds planted in this courtyard are seeds preserved by the Williams family for generations or an "artificial species" reproduced through genetic engineering.

A winding path paved with gravel leads to the end of the courtyard, and on the right hand side of the path is a corpse dressed as a gardener. There is a very obvious bullet hole in the vest of the corpse, but currently It was not determined whether this was the direct cause of death of the body.

"That thing is underground." Asano Akira said.

"No wonder the security bureau's drones didn't see anything." Aya said. At this moment, a dozen armed drones were hovering directly above the central courtyard, with black muzzles and hatches that had been opened. The missile launch nest has been aimed at the ground and can fire at any time.

"This guy is really calm. Is he waiting for us to walk into the trap he set?" Ke Lan glanced at the three energy crystals used as magazines. Judging from the quality of the crystals, the maximum power of the shot At least two shots can be fired, and there is a thunder beast dormant under the ground, which is enough to kill it instantly.

What's more, with the thickness of the modules in the third west area, the soil depth of this central courtyard is only ten meters deep, reaching the sky. It is impossible to bury a thunder beast.

"If it doesn't come out, blow it out." Aya looked at Asano Akira, "Can you lock the specific location of that thing? I'll try to attack it directly with a drone."

"Thirty-four meters straight ahead, about one meter deep."

"The target has been locked, units one to six, launch an attack!" Aya immediately ordered the drone.

Dozens of small missiles roared out and burrowed into the soil in an instant, followed by violent explosions and strong vibrations transmitted from the ground. Aya, who had activated the energy shield, jumped forward to save Ke Arashi and Akira Asano blocked the aftermath of the explosion.

However, there is no energy shield protection in other directions. Those rare flowers and trees with high prices were completely destroyed by the shock wave in an instant. The ancient tree was as thick as four or five people's arms and even Ke Lan couldn't name it. It was even uprooted and thrown to one side.

Before the smoke from the explosion had dissipated, a black shadow more than three meters high had already rushed out of the smoke and crashed into Aya Breya, who was at the front of the team.

"Your energy shield can't stop this thing!" Ke Lan grabbed Aya's shoulders and forcibly pulled her back. Asano Akira quickly stepped forward and drew his knife forward——

"Qiang!"

The sound of metal colliding sounded. With the ability of "stop time", Ke Lan finally saw the true appearance of that thing - the monster's body was indeed a human... or an adult human male, but in his eyes The torso and limbs are wrapped in a hard shell like a crab. In the gaps of the carapace, there are also a large number of arthropods with bristles on the sides curled up.

Its face was completely distorted. A pair of large claws with a metallic luster tore open the flesh on both sides of its cheeks. Tentacles also covered with carapace emerged from its nose and eye sockets, dancing continuously in the air.

"Cbs mutant carapace virus..." Ke Lan murmured, "I didn't expect that someone would actually successfully fuse with this thing..."

"What is that?" Aya was stunned for a moment. Even as the deputy director of the Internal Affairs Department of the Security Bureau, she had never heard of this thing at all.

"This is one of the collections in the underground icehouse of the institute. I saw it accidentally when I entered the underground icehouse last time to perform a mission... To be honest, if it weren't for the appearance of the corpses sealed in jars, it would be too much. It’s so unique that I wouldn’t notice this thing.” Ke Lan explained, “Cbs is taken from the abbreviation of crayfish Cambarus. This virus was found in an indigenous organism called ‘Mediterranean green-shelled crayfish’ and has infectious If a human being accidentally eats this type of crayfish or is bitten or injected with digestive juice, symptoms of infection will appear within 24 hours, mainly manifesting as high fever above 40 degrees Celsius, coma, and skin ulcers. as well as……"

"And what?" Aya couldn't help but ask.

At this time, the monster infected by the Cbs mutant carapace virus had already fought with Asano Akira. Although its speed could not keep up with Asano Akira, its super-hard carapace could withstand the slashes of the Nino alloy sword. ——Asano Akira often needs to chop the same part four or five times in succession to split it open, but before he can expand the wound, the edge of the broken carapace will quickly secrete some kind of sticky substance, sealing the wound. Block it up.

The hardness of the areas repaired by these sticky substances is even higher than the original carapace.

"And the large number of carapace that proliferated on the body surface...the carapace on the corpse samples were almost exactly the same as those on this monster." Ke Lan said, "I later specifically checked the relevant information. After this virus infects the human body, It will quickly consume the body's energy and nutrients. Even if the infected person can be treated in time, it will be difficult to survive for more than a week... According to the research institute's speculation, this virus is most likely a creation of the Alpha civilization, and those'Chinese Green The crayfish is either an experimental organism that escaped from a certain ruins, or it is an unlucky egg contaminated by a leaked virus - the author of that report is more inclined to the former."
