Alien Relic Hunter

Finally, with the last bit of energy from the torpedo, Ke Lan finally crossed the edge of the submarine plain... However, the fusion body did not stop there. The huge tentacles directly crossed the border and continued to catch up.

All the thrusters on the deep-diving suit have been scrapped, and Ke Lan does not have a third vortex torpedo. Having lost all power, he has no choice but to escape and can only watch the tentacles of the fusion body getting closer and closer...

The last trump card had been used, but he still couldn't escape the danger.

"...It seems like it's really doomed this time." Ke Lan looked up at the water above in despair and made his final decision.

He let out all the air in the diving suit bladder.

As the overall buoyancy dropped significantly, Ke Lan quickly sank towards the deep sea - this was his only means of movement at present. Although this was a one-way ticket with no return, it was better than what he had now. Better to be dragged back to the hatchery by the tentacles.

He would rather be crushed to death by the water pressure of the deep sea than become food for that monster.

Along the edge of the submarine plain, Ke Lan fell straight down. Looking at the cliff not far away, Ke Lan felt as if he had jumped off a cliff - in the martial arts novels of the old era, the protagonist Basically, you will not die if you jump off a cliff. Either you will be accepted as a disciple by an outsider master who lives under the cliff, or you will meet a girl who is beautiful but has a low IQ and likes to cheat. No matter how bad it is, at least you will not die. I can pick up a few peerless secret books and the like...

But the problem is...the cliffs where the protagonist jumps do not have water pressure thousands of times atmospheric pressure below...

There are no worldly masters, no stunning beauties, and no physical attack secrets... there is only despair and death.

"...still can't escape?"

The sinking speed is very fast, but compared to the tentacles of the fusion body, it is still much slower. The distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer... Ke Lan can't wait until he is crushed to death by the water pressure, and he will be crushed by the tentacles. captured.

At this moment, many giant creatures appeared in Ke Lan's field of vision. These creatures had spiral carapace with a diameter of more than thirty meters on their backs. With dozens of strong and powerful tentacles extending from the carapace, They cling to the cliffs outside the sea platform, forming an extremely spectacular sight - there are more than a hundred individuals within the reach of the searchlight alone.

"Eh... there are so many giant nautiluses here?!"

Although Ke Lan saw this creature for the first time, it is not unfamiliar to humans. In the past fifty years, humans have sunk more than a hundred ships in the middle sea, causing more than half of them to sink. The culprit of the incident is this giant cephalopod that looks like an enlarged nautilus.

This kind of creature usually lives in waters five hundred to one thousand meters deep, but sometimes goes to shallow sea areas to hunt. They are extremely ferocious in character and especially like to attack human ships. They will stick to the bottom of the ship and launch attacks unless the ship is brought together. Destroy them, otherwise most weapons will be useless against them.

In human records, giant nautiluses often appear alone, but in this place, there is such a huge group of people living there. Even Ke Lan couldn't help but exclaim...

Perhaps because the target was too small, Ke Lan did not attract the attention of the giant nautilus. Instead, the tentacles of the fusion that broke into their habitat alerted these creatures. They quickly gathered over and moved towards the fusion almost crazily. The tentacles attack!

"This...is this okay?" Ke Lan watched in astonishment as these giant nautiluses rushed forward. Their tentacles were covered with barbed thorns. Every time they waved, they could tear off a large amount of the fusion body's tentacles. There were pieces of flesh and blood, and in the blink of an eye, black blood mist filled the sea water.

"These giant nautiluses actually got into trouble with the fusion body... It seems that my life should not be cut off..." With a sigh in his heart, Ke Lan quickly took out a few spare compressed gas bottles and put the valve and deep diving suit together. Air bag docking - as the gas was filled, his sinking momentum gradually stopped.

Being attacked by the giant nautilus, the fusion body naturally couldn't help but fight back. A tentacle directly penetrated the shell of a giant nautilus, and with a strong tug, the body of the giant nautilus was directly removed from the shell. It was pulled out, and along with it, there were many broken internal organs...

The crack at the front end of the fusion body's tentacle suddenly expanded several times, swallowing the entire body of the giant nautilus. In less than five seconds, the originally enlarged tentacle returned to its original shape, and on the surface of this tentacle , it grew many barbed thorns that were very similar to the giant nautilus...

"Swallow... digest... fuse the opponent's genes, mutate at a rapid rate... what kind of monster did the Alpha aliens create..." Ke Lan, who was watching the battle from the side, couldn't help but take a breath of air.

But these giant nautiluses that are not afraid of death are not timid at all because of the death of their own kind. More giant nautiluses are gathering in the distance. In addition to tentacles, they also have hard and sharp beak-like mouthparts. , every attack can create shocking and terrifying wounds on the tentacles of the fusion body.

"A life-and-death fight between giant beasts in the deep sea... This scene is really rare..." Ke Lan shook his head with some pity. If the camera equipment was not available, otherwise, just filming this scene would be enough to kill him instantly. All monster science fiction films made by humans.

As the battle continued, the tentacles of the fusion body gradually gained the upper hand. More than fifteen giant nautiluses had been killed and devoured by it in a similar way. However, the number of giant nautiluses seemed endless, and these behemoths almost occupied the entire world. Throughout the entire cliff, the strong smell of blood in the sea water is constantly stimulating these violent carnivores.

Ke Lan began to swing his arms slowly, swimming in the opposite direction to the sea platform - there is no doubt that the final winner must be the fusion body dormant in the abyss. He must be killed in the giant nautilus. Escape from here before the light comes, the further away the better.

Judging from the current killing efficiency of the tentacles, these giant nautiluses can at least drag Ke Lan for several hours... But with Ke Lan's current moving speed, it is still unknown whether he can swim to a safe zone in these few hours. question.

This submarine plateau itself is very suspicious - the Pioneer has been patrolling this area for at least a week, but all the detection equipment on the ship has not discovered the existence of the submarine plateau. This situation is really weird. , Ke Lan couldn't find a reasonable explanation at all, and he couldn't even be sure whether he was still in the original sea area.

If so, wouldn't the Pioneer...have always been within the attack range of the fusion body?
