As they went deeper into Passage No. 15, they found that there was a thick phlegm like secretion on the walls on both sides. The steel under the secretion was corroded by a layer, but fortunately, the acid seemed to weaken with time.
Xuan used his finger to carefully touch the secretions in the corner. He stood up."The acid has already been oxided a lot. It's probably only slightly acidic now. This is much easier to handle. When we fight later, we won't be afraid if our bodies are covered in this secretion.”
Zheng stepped on the secretions and frowned."But it's too slippery. If we fight with the queen later and the ground is covered in this secretion, I'm afraid we'll be able to stand steadily while running.”
"No, if the battlefield is filled with this substance, it'll be more beneficial to us. We won't have to worry about the queen's blood corroding the ship's hull. This is an advantage. Compared to some obstacles in our movements, I'd rather choose to cover the battlefield with a thick layer of this substance."”
"Excuse me." Yang Tian closed his eyes and said," Instead of thinking about the environment of the battlefield, why don't you think about how to continue moving forward?"”
"What's wrong?" Zheng turned to look at Yang Tian in confusion.
"The path ahead seems to have been sealed off. However, the isolation layer doesn't seem to be thick. It doesn't look like the isolation wall of a merchant ship, but more like…"
Before Yang Tian could finish, Overlord, who was scouting ahead, said,""There's a situation! Come here for a moment."
The three of them looked at each other, feeling a little uneasy. Zheng took the lead and ran towards the corner.
Seeing the three of them running over, the burly Russian man pointed his gun at the passage in front of him and said,"We can't get through. There are all these slippery things over there.”
Yang Tian looked up and saw that the passage behind the Overlord was covered in a thick layer of secretion. It looked like the internal organs of some creatures, and at first glance, it seemed to be alive.?
Zheng carefully pried open the layer of secretion with the spiral spike. From his movements, it wasn't hard. On the contrary, he could easily pierce through this layer of secretion. Moreover, this layer of substance was only a few centimeters thick at most.
Zheng easily removed the layer of secretions, but the space behind the secretions gave him a shock. Yang Tian was also surprised when he saw Zheng's surprised expression. Because the back of the ship was covered in a thick layer of this secretion. The ground, walls, and ceiling were all covered in this secretion. If the space before was still considered a merchant ship passage, then this was the real nest of aliens. The feeling of walking on flesh and being surrounded by living creatures was enough to make one's hair stand on end.
" Yang Tian, the lights are dim here, and the line of sight is not good. Use your spirit to see if that thing over there is a Xenomorph egg, one of those oval-shaped biological organs?" Xuan suddenly said.”
Yang Tian closed his eyes when he heard that, but then he opened them again and said helplessly,""No, it's too far away. I can only sense things within a 20-meter radius. And…this mucus seems to have the effect of interfering with my perception.”
Xuan thought for a moment, then said to Zheng."This kind of Alien egg will never attack from more than 20 meters away, so we can get close to it safely…From the distance we've walked, we're at aisle 3. If we walk further, we'll reach warehouse 2 and warehouse 1. The Queen should be there!”
Zheng nodded and said to the people behind him."Then you guys stay here, I'll go see if it's really an Alien egg…if something appears behind me, then I'll have to trouble you guys to help me get rid of them.”
Yang Tian looked at Zheng and pulled out the Hellhound. He said firmly,"I can't guarantee anything else. As long as you're not more than 20 meters away from me, nothing can get close to you from behind.”
Zheng smiled and walked into the nest. Yang Tian took a few steps forward as well. As soon as he landed, a soft feeling came from the bottom of his feet. It was as if he was stepping on the internal organs of a living creature. The feeling of squeezing through the flesh and walking down made his scalp go numb. He endured this uncomfortable feeling and closed his eyes to stare at Zheng's surroundings. After Zheng walked ten meters, he suddenly shouted."That's right! It's an Alien Egg!" Then, there was a gunshot.
Yang Tian could " see " the Alien eggs slowly wriggling and opening. In the horror movies of the Aliens, this was the beginning of the Alien eggs releasing their larvae. There were dozens of Alien eggs here. If all the larvae were released, they might hide in their secretions and attack everyone. Once a person was parasitized by them, the person would become a new Alien within a few minutes to a few hours. Although most of them had already been shot dead by Zheng, there were still a few larvae that were released. Their jumping speed was astonishing. After bouncing a few times on the secretions, these larvae had already approached Zheng.
Yang Tian did not hesitate. After locking onto the larvae with his Spirit, he fired a few shots and used the guided shots to turn the larvae into dregs.?
Zheng smiled at Yang Tian. Xuan ran over calmly. He squatted down and looked at the pieces of the Alien egg. A moment later, he stood up and said,"The queen will enter a weak state after laying eggs. The shells of these eggs are very soft, not as hard as I remember…I think the queen has just laid eggs.”
"Since we've come this far, we have to kill that big guy no matter what. Let's go!" Kill the last two aliens! Let's all return to the main god's space alive!”
The five of them continued to move forward. Gradually, they could no longer see any traces of the passageway. The ground was almost covered with the phlegm secretions, and the walls were often corroded with large holes. On the way from the third passageway to the second warehouse, the dense holes almost turned the place into a spider-web-like maze.
"I can't. I'm completely lost. I lost my sense of direction when I turned the corner."”
Jie laughed." That's right. This place looks exactly the same. You can walk in any direction and you'll find these disgusting things. If you want to find your way here, that's simply…"
"I can."
"If it's just replaying the map I've seen in my mind, leave it to me. If we keep walking down this road, we can indeed reach warehouse 2, but I'm thinking if it's appropriate to just walk in…"
"Is it appropriate?" Zheng asked curiously. What do you think?"
"This place is practically the home ground of the aliens. No one can guarantee what will happen if we go in directly." So I think we should send someone in to lure the Empress out first, and then…"
Zheng interrupted Xuan."No, there are four of us here, and each of us is the last fighting force. Moreover, we are all companions, companions! Don't think that you can ignore us just because you're smarter than us. F * ck, if you go and be bait, I'll agree immediately. Don't f * cking treat other people's lives like they're toys!”
"I can be the bait, but can you guarantee that you'll kill it the moment the queen appears?" Since you don't agree to let people scout ahead, then come up with another plan. I'm all ears.”
Yang Tian did not want to say much when he saw them arguing, but it was not the time for internal strife, so he tried to smooth things over.""You two, this question doesn't seem to have much meaning. The Aliens aren't fools. They are very good at sneak attacks. If there are only one or two people walking together, they will definitely attack the one closest to them first. However, if one person walks in front and there are a few people with guns behind them, do you think the Aliens will be stupid enough to come out and let us fight? Don't you agree?"
"That's right, this deduction is correct. My thoughts are in a mess because of fear and nervousness?" Next…I won't say anything else. I will continue with the mission of leading the way.”With that, he walked in a certain direction.
Zheng looked at Xuan's back, then pointed at Kampa."Kampa, I sensed danger the last few times I encountered the Aliens. I remember that you and Zero also have this kind of danger prediction ability. No matter which one of us senses danger first, we will shoot in that direction, okay?”
The Overlord nodded and said," I can feel the danger now. It's as if someone is staring at us. It's very cold. It's as if we're food. Damn it, this feeling is terrible." Do you know why Xuan is so anxious? He probably felt the danger as well. To be honest, I was so frustrated that I wanted to take a gun and sweep around. This feeling was really f * cking terrible.”
Yang Tian also felt that something was wrong when he heard the Overlord's words. Even though he had fully activated his Psychic Sense, the sticky liquid that was everywhere made his senses very blurry, and he had a constant feeling of fear in his heart.?This made him very uncomfortable.
As they spoke, the five of them had already walked out of the passageway. In front of them was a vast flat land. The ground was still covered with a thick layer of white phlegm secretions. In addition, there were dozens of large boxes placed in a row in this space. This should be the location of warehouse No. 2.
Suddenly, Yang Tian sensed something." There's something on my head!”After saying that, he looked up.
There were four unconscious people hanging upside down from the ceiling. They were two middle-aged men, a man and a woman, two white-collar workers. Other than their heads, their entire bodies were covered in white secretions. They were hanging upside down from the ceiling.
The others also looked up. Xuan suddenly said without hesitation."Jie Zhang, Yang Tian, Overlord! Shoot them all down! There's no harm in killing him!"
He said to Zheng."What is our mission to return to God's dimension alive? Kill all the aberrations! They must have aliens inside them,
He had to kill them before the Empress appeared! Otherwise, even if we kill the queen, we will still die. That is the problem of the queen's corrosive blood. It is likely to corrode the merchant ship, so after we kill the queen, we must leave the merchant ship as soon as possible. But what if the Aliens in their bodies suddenly hatch? Do we have to go after those four little aliens?”
Zheng looked at the others and nodded."You did the right thing. I have nothing to say…We are just struggling. I will only show mercy to my companions. Don't think of me as so pedantic…"
Xuan smiled faintly. He turned to look at the four. Three of them had been beaten into a sieve. At this moment, he suddenly thought of something and his expression changed drastically."Wait, wait, everyone, quickly run away from here! This is a trap!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone felt their feet sink, and the entire ground seemed to have suddenly collapsed.
"Don't move, everyone! Listen to me carefully!" Xuan shouted. The first warehouse is below the second warehouse. The four people hanging here are probably a trap set by the Queen. She wants us to stand here motionless! Hurry up and kill them! The Empress must be under our feet. The steel here has already been corroded by it. Everyone…"
Everyone immediately focused their firepower on the last person. The steel plate under their feet let out a violent friction sound. Before they could react, the entire floor had already fallen down. Instantly, everyone could not help but fall into the darkness below!
It wasn't known if it was luck or misfortune, but the thick secretion saved everyone. The thick secretion kept everyone safe from falling from over ten meters, especially Kampa and Zheng. They used force on their waists and bounced up.
Yang Tian was caught in the thick secretions. Before he could adjust his posture, he heard a series of crazy gunshots. He could feel danger approaching, and the source of the danger was right above his head! Even if they didn't deliberately sense it, they could feel that something huge was approaching them.
Sure enough, a huge black shadow fell from the ceiling. With a loud bang, the black shadow landed in front of the five. Zheng looked carefully and saw that it was clearly an exaggeratedly huge Alien!
