Chapter 55 Experimentation and Value
Chapter 55 · Experiment, and Value
The lightning pulse cannot kill the alien in one blow. It can only weaken the mobility of this space hunter to the extreme. The alien five meters away, whose flesh and blood were boiling and carbonized by electricity and whose body was filled with smoke, still rushed forward even though its life was hanging by a thread. Its tail and some limb joints had melted off, but it still tried to open its alien mouth and tried to attack the weapon in Jiang Yu's hand with its inner nest teeth.
With terrible team consciousness, it tried to use its life to win a chance for its companions.
However, after being struck by lightning, its speed no longer had the ability to threaten Jiang Yu.
The thundercloud armor suddenly moved sideways, and a heavy shoulder collision was accompanied by the sound of the alien's internal and external skeletons breaking. At the moment of collision, it still tried to tear Jiang Yu's armor with its claws. But without additional psychic energy and single-molecule claws, it ultimately failed to leave the slightest trace on the vibranium plating.
It was knocked away more than ten meters.
The moment it landed, another lightning pulse killed it completely.
——【Kill one of the aliens and get 300 bonus points. 】
The Lord God’s notification was very timely, and he repeatedly reminded Jiang Yu that the alien he was facing was only 60% of the value of the Infinite Original. At the same time, the last intact alien also pushed away the corpse of its kind that hit him.
‘Bang-bang! ’ The secondary shotgun fired continuously. The fact that the automatic shotgun in the near future could not penetrate the alien shell verified the approximate defense of this thing. Weapons specifically for humans are ultimately difficult to deal with monsters, but the impact effect caused by the shotgun itself still hindered the monster’s ability to move.
It was restricted to the spot, smashed against the wall again and again, and had no time to get up.
The Thunder Cloud Armor strode forward slowly. When the last high-impact shotgun knocked it down, the cracking glow on the power glove also lit up.
One punch.
The world was quiet with the sound of the Lord God’s scoring prompt.
But the silence was short-lived, because the first alien that was hit by a pulse cannon and then fell to the ground as a corpse needed to be handled.
When Jiang Yu walked over, the guy's tail suddenly rose up and stabbed the head of the Thunder Cloud Armor. However, since he was prepared, it was just a casual swing of the power glove.
It failed. But it did not die.
Jiang Yu raised the giant foot of the armor and stepped on its limbs. He tore off the tail and broke its structure, which was probably the spine, with another punch. When the guy could only roar, he pulled out its inner nest teeth and pulled off its jaw to shut it up.
This time, the world really quieted down.
One leg of the armor pressed on the body of the disabled alien. When Jiang Yu turned around, Zheng Zha, who had finished the battle earlier than himself, was looking at him with a little confusion on the other side of the three-way intersection... or the T-intersection.
At Zheng Zha's feet, an alien was chopped into three pieces. And the other one was torn in half by his bare hands. The light green acid blood splashed all over his nanosuit, but it had no effect and was quickly washed away by the red flames that slowly emerged on the surface of the nanosuit.
Xia and Mu Gang did not fire a single shot. This greeting-style battle was completely in line with the D-level mainline difficulty given by the Lord God.
"Some conjectures need to be verified." Jiang Yu said.
Zheng Zha made a "whatever you want" gesture, and Xia consciously came to the small hall where Jiang Yu was, keeping alert in all directions.
"Zhan Lan, are there any aliens near us?" Jiang Yu asked in the communication channel.
The answer arrived quickly.
"No... It's safe nearby. I'll look at other places... Hey, the aliens are leaving. They... seem to be converging towards the direction of the warehouse mother nest."
"It seems that all the aliens on the spacecraft know that we are here, and they are not easy to mess with." Jiang Yu nodded, he was not surprised. Pheromones, ultrasound, aliens have many ways to transmit messages. It can't be stopped.
But at least, now we can be sure that the surrounding environment is safe.
He reached out, pushed open the protective shell of the Thundercloud Armor and jumped off lightly. The moment he left the armor, he felt a clearer wind.
Wind and vibration.
The spaceship under his feet seemed to have turned into a huge living thing. And the group of aliens was like an uncoordinated malignant tumor. For a moment, Jiang Yu felt that he could clearly capture the specific location of the queen, every alien, every face hugger, and every egg. And the next moment, a strange sense of loss drove him out of this state.
That feeling disappeared - but Jiang Yu knew it was not an illusion. He knew that there was a phenomenon in the world where a part of the senses would be temporarily closed or suppressed, and the body would gain compensatory sense enhancement when it was released again. It's just that this phenomenon was particularly obvious in his body at this moment.
This may be related to the ultimate infinite qigong he practiced - but now is not the time to consider this issue. He did not waste more than half a second because of this abnormal perception. And soon, he walked to the side of the half-dead alien. He stretched out his least important left pinky finger and gently touched the bloody wound of the alien with his fingertips.
The feeling of trauma came immediately.
It was a little painful, but not unbearable. The fingertips changed slightly due to the corrosion of the acid blood, but it was unable to corrode his skin. And when the B-level electromagnetic true qi in his body gathered towards his fingertips, even the feeling of pain no longer existed.
Sure enough, even Zheng Zha from the original Alien period could rely on his C-level bloodline to resist acid blood corrosion. Jiang Yu's basic attributes at this moment were more than one level higher than Zheng Zha's at that time. He put away the tools to stop the bleeding and neutralize it, and simply put his whole hand into the wound. Except that the half-dead alien was unhappy about it, there was no leak in his body.
The hands are still hands, white and slender, the result of strengthening and practicing. Pulling out his hand, he changed his posture slightly. Under the acceleration of his true energy, he showed an action speed that was nearly twice as fast as when operating the armor.
A little realization emerged in Jiang Yu's mind - the Thunder Cloud Armor was already a bit behind for him at this stage. Perhaps the armor's defense after modification was still much higher than his original form. But other areas are already less than adequate. It only takes a little deduction to know that if Jiang Yu chooses to put the power fist on his hand instead of the armor. Then the time it takes him to kill these four aliens will most likely be halved and then halved again.
New armor and weapons have to be considered - Jiang Yu puts this matter on his agenda. Afterwards, he returned to the armor, picked up the half-dead body of the alien, and told his companions what to do next.
……………………
The fighting lasted no more than fifteen seconds. The time lost after the battle is no more than thirty seconds.
Jiang Yu did not bring the remains of the alien back to the original aircraft - it would be too much of a joke if a drop of acid blood suddenly melted through the aircraft like in the game's CG trailer - he only informed Zhang Jie and Zhan Lan and asked them to put the newcomers They were brought to the small hall that served as the battlefield.
People always cannot shed tears until they see the coffin, and now, the coffin has appeared in front of them. Facing the fragmented alien remains, the alien acid blood still flowing and corroding pits on the metal surface, and the harmful and crippled alien that was still twisting and struggling under the restraints of the unactivated power fists, even if it started again, A tough person must admit that he is in a nightmare.
The gangsters who were supposed to be the most eccentric and rude were now eager to shrink into a ball. The male and female white-collar workers were pale and trembling. The gold-collared man with the briefcase let out a frantic scream and strode away into the darkness.
No one paid attention to him - Jiang Yu said on the communication channel not to act rashly. Anyway, there are already forty or fifty aliens, and one more of him is not much.
So, big steps turned into small steps, and small steps turned into moves. On the eve of breaking into a strange dark passage, he realized that he was not taken seriously at all, and there was no Holy Mother heart among these "future warriors" who could take advantage of the opportunity to make conditions or grab a breakthrough. Finally stopped.
Then, he laughed and shrank his neck, pretending that nothing happened, and returned to the ranks of the newcomers.
He failed, but it was still a successful trial. The seniors did not break his legs when he tried to leave the team without authorization but allowed him to go back. This proved that the team's course of action was generally good.
Chu Xuan pushed up his glasses - his evaluation of the seniors had obviously been updated. Before Jiang Yu spoke, he also guessed the reason why Jiang Yu asked the newcomers to come out.
The seniors have already proven their strength. The aliens on this ship are not very powerful for the fully armed seniors. Staying with senior people has the highest probability of survival, but it will be a drag on the senior people. The life and death of most newcomers actually don't mean much to the seniors. What is meaningful is the valuable newcomers.
So, what is the value of new people?
"It's larger than the original size." Chu Xuan walked towards the most complete alien corpse. He reached out his hand without fear and touched the armor surface that was not covered with acid blood. "In the movie, the upright height of a warrior alien is no more than two meters. This is the best size for them to hunt prey such as humans in this environment. But here, the upright height of the alien is close to two meters. Miba."
Two meters eight, this is the size of Alien One in the Infinity Classic. Much more powerful than those in the movie.
"The type has not changed, and the main prey has not changed. The size has increased. This shows that our previous advance team used the super-era firepower to teach them a lesson. And this resulted in them having to reproduce new generations. Produce corresponding mutations to enhance resistance to kinetic and energy strikes."
He was right, a warrior alien under normal circumstances should not be able to withstand a lightning pulse strike. Because the Lord God provides various monster corpses for exchange, and Jiang Yu has exchanged them before and practiced target shooting. The result of the test at that time was that one shot of the charged cannon was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and could be eaten on the spot.
—It even tastes okay.
"...And this means that such alienation may not be an inherent characteristic of the alien space hunter. It may have some kind of hidden flaw as a price for its enhanced body shape and defense." Chu Xuan pointed out He nodded and extended his hand to the seniors. "Can you give me a dagger? It doesn't need to be a strong one."
A combat dagger was quickly placed in his hand. The titanium alloy was originally treated with a single molecular blade, but it had been blunted in previous battles and was no longer very sharp.
The next moment, the dagger easily penetrated somewhere on the alien's chest and abdomen carapace. Penetrating this body that was supposed to be invulnerable.
"For example...here."
