Chapter 414 Hunting and the Source of Disaster (1)
"If I can go back alive, I will report to the league what the company has done."
"And then, we have to fight alone."
Everyone present was stunned by what Mr. Captain did. No one thought that he would be so decisive and kill the ghost directly.
On the side, most of the anger in Lu Li and Roger's hearts dissipated.
Obviously, all the passengers on the scientific research ship are a community of interests, and they have the same goal: to return to land alive.

[The intelligent system has been severely damaged and needs to be repaired in time]
Overhead, the red light kept blinking.
"It's noisy."
Co-pilot Andy took a sip of beer, got up and walked to the center console, and cut off part of the power supply.
The spaceship became silent in an instant.
However, without the assistance of [Tinder], it means that everything has to be done by oneself.
"What are we going to do next?" the pilot David asked while manipulating the spaceship.
Dozens of eyes lingered on Lin Xiuyi, Luo Jie, and Lu Li.
The former has the highest status, acts decisively, and has strong organizational skills, while the latter two have proved with their actual actions that they are the main force in destroying monsters.
"Now there are not enough manpower, we must give up some areas first." The captain's expression is solemn, "Once infected with this weird virus, there is only one ending. It becomes a host that breeds monsters. With the existing methods, there is no cure at all."
"So let's give up the medical cabin."
Dr. Luo expressed no objection to this, as did several other doctors.
"The restaurant on the top floor cannot be given up." The old man wearing a chef's hat suddenly said.
The captain was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately, and promised: "Of course, we must ensure sufficient food reserves."
You know, there are no robots on board, and everyone needs to eat to maintain their body functions.
And Dr. Amy with short blond hair raised his hand high, expressing his opinion: "The escape pod can't be given up either. We really can't solve that monster. We can use this to escape."
There are three escape pods that can automatically navigate and land on the bottom of the spaceship. The interior is equipped with a hibernation pod, a navigator, and a small amount of food. It can be regarded as a miniature spaceship.
"The lower cargo hold and the weapon depot can be abandoned."
With the help of the engineer, most of Roger's injuries healed, and he said bluntly: "After this incident, there is no need to explore the deserted star anymore. Therefore, those exploration vehicles should give up and give up."
"Where's the equipment warehouse?"
The captain seemed unwilling to give up there, and his tone was serious, "The equipment warehouse is next to the cargo hold. If you cut off contact with it, it will be troublesome to resupply weapons in the future."
"There is only one monster, and the weapons we have now are enough to destroy it." Roger was full of confidence.
The restaurant, the cockpit, and the passages leading to the three small escape cabins all require security forces to protect them, and it is really impossible to separate the manpower to guard other areas.
Therefore, Mr. Lin Xiuyi wavered.
Just as he was about to give up the cargo hold, Lu Li, who had been silent for a long time, said, "The equipment depot cannot be given up for now. Next, most members of the security team will participate in the operation of hunting the alien."
"So other people have to find a way to protect themselves, and it's not enough to have firearms in the weapons storage."
Because of his previous understanding, Lu Li knew that in the absence of queens, some aliens would automatically transform into queens to reproduce for the race.
If the runaway premature baby can be transformed into a queen, then things will be troublesome.
A boatload of human beings will become a source of food, breeding dozens of aliens, not to mention whether I can kill them all, the acid blood in these beasts alone can corrode the spaceship into a bad shape.
This time, controversy arose.
The engineers and support staff were reluctant to take the initiative of the security team and felt that they should stay and wait for work.
After all, it’s actually for myself.
After all, at this stage, the combat effectiveness of transformed humans is generally higher than that of purebred humans, and they have received long-term training, which can bring them more sense of security.
The minority obeys the majority.
At this critical moment, even the captain can't make a speech. Therefore, everyone decided to vote whether the security team should take the initiative to attack or wait for work.
Unfortunately, most people choose the latter.
"I'll go alone." Lu Li suggested.
Bringing the security team can improve efficiency, but without them, the impact is not great. From another perspective, he can let go of his hands and feet during the battle, and maybe he can reap miraculous effects.
"Are you sure you are going it alone in this situation? Taking action collectively will have a higher chance of success."
The captain felt that there was no need for Lu Li to be so impatient.
Steady and steady, step by step.
His plan is to clear out a safe area first, and then slowly explore outside, continuously compressing the monster's living space, and finally determine the location, and work together to kill it.
The whole process was perfect!
Unfortunately, the crew did not know that once the alien came out of the host body, it would complete its transformation in a short period of time, and its size and strength would increase exponentially.
in short.
The longer the delay, the more dangerous the situation becomes.
"Don't worry, I can kill the more mature monster, so I can easily deal with the premature baby." Lu Li said firmly.
Seeing this, Roger immediately said, "I'll accompany you."
How dangerous the alien is, he has seen it with his own eyes, and he still finds it difficult to deal with in retrospect.
However, Lu Li could clearly see that when Roger said what he said just now, many people's faces changed, obviously they regarded him as a protector.
So, he immediately refused: "No, don't you still believe in my strength?"
The tone is full of confidence.
And Roger also recalled the scene of Lu Li crushing the white alien, like a cat playing with a mouse, relaxed and comfortable, if he hadn't dragged his feet at the last moment, there would be no need for such trouble now.
"It's not as good as this."
Seeing that a problem has been discussed until now, Captain Lin Xiuyi didn't want to drag it any longer, so he decided to compromise the two plans:
"How about this, let's clear out a safe area first, and then arrange the monitoring equipment, and after the worries about the future are resolved, we will send a small team to explore outside."
"During this period, Mr. Lu can act alone. It would be best if he could kill the monster. If it doesn't work, he can wait for others to join him."
Frankly speaking, Lu Li really doesn't feel much. He can do it alone, adding a few more members, as long as he obeys the command, it will be the icing on the cake.
Anyway, just don't let that little beast grow up freely.
The other crew members sensed that Lu Li had made up his mind, and they didn't want to upset him, so they all agreed to the captain's compromise proposal.
That's it, the meeting is over.
The Tinder that stopped in the depths of the universe was activated again, and everyone performed their duties and fought for their lives.
