Interstellar: The Devil Is Down - Chapter 43
The alien creatures of the 9th star were named by the empire as the steel cracktooth ant. They are divided into four levels. The first level is the lowest worker ant. They follow the orders of their superiors and go to the depths of the mine to collect crystal minerals.
The point for killing a first-level ant is one point, and so on, the point for the fourth-level queen is ten.
The freshmen will stay here for three months. When Pei and his party set off, the kill rankings far away in the control room of the First Military Academy have been released, and the students can also use their personal terminals. Check your own grades.
They quickly reached their first destination, which was the most common alien mining area on the 9th. The environment was harsh, with unknown plants growing sparsely on the surface, and the entire mine was dug into potholes.
During the training period, it is not allowed to drive mechs. With the physique of the new students, these alien creatures in the fortress are just equal.
The soldiers stationed here by the empire are immortal with the huge ants. No matter where they meet, the ants will hunt humans as prey, and they will directly devour humans to replenish energy.
Yang Li and Cook didn’t remember how many of their comrades had become food in the mouth of ants. They would cry in grief when they lost their first comrade, but now, only indifferent perseverance remained in their eyes.
Their destination this time was a certain base of alien creatures. The base was located deep underground, and the aircraft they were riding placed them near that base.
As far as I can see, groups of three to five ants are carrying large chunks of raw ore, in and out of the towering ant nests. The surface of their bodies seems to be covered with a layer of hard armor. The six slender legs look strong and powerful, and when walking, they make a burst of “click, click” sounds on the ground, which is a bit creepy.
No one would doubt the lethality of those legs.
Of course, Pei and the others couldn’t just rush over. Faced with a large number of ant colonies, the best way is to sneak attack while they are carrying ore.
“Let’s stop here, the next step is on your own.” Yang Li said, “We will only observe from the side. We will only take action when your lives are in danger.”
Tang Jing smiled: “Should we choose a captain?”
Qianqin and Benson looked directly at Pei Yi, waiting for him to give an order.
On the surface, the most suitable leader among the five of them should be Xuan Xiao. But when there are outsiders, Xuan Xiao has always been reluctant to talk, and only listens to Pei Yi.
Tang Jing saw Qianqin and Benson’s movements, and helplessly spread his hands: “Okay, okay, I know that you are all students who have been admitted from the sixth star field together. They must have their own way of getting along. In that case, a few obey Most, Pei will be the captain.”
“But the ugly words are at the forefront. I hope my team will have a good result. Your legs… won’t drag us down, right?” When he said the latter sentence, his eyes were deeply suspicious.
“Don’t worry.” Pei’s lips curled up, and then he said, “Let’s go.”
Xuan Xiao hugged him and walked towards a fragmented stone mound. There were five ant tribes that formed a small team in that direction. Those guys were very sensitive. Pei Yi and the others had just approached a little bit, and they had already discovered it!
The first-level cracktooth ants do not have the racial abilities of alien creatures, but they are very powerful.
Five iron gray ants, each tall, violently threw away the ore clamped in the tongs, and rushed towards Pei and the others as if they were smelling something delicious.
Xuan Xiao put Pei down and Benson was the first to meet them. They were all equipped with electromagnetic guns. Benson fired a shot at the leading cracktooth ant, but did not hit the target, only left on it. Deep traces.
Qianqin was entangled by a schizotooth ant at the same time, and the situation now is that one person is facing a schizotooth ant.
Tang Jing also drew out his gun, firing while doing evasive movements, it was obvious that he had good skills.
However, Pei Yi and Xuan Xiao gave up the electromagnetic gun directly. Obviously, the shell of the alien creature like the cracktooth ant is comparable to the top alloy. Unless it can hit the key, even if it makes them bleed, it can only be regarded as Negligible minor damage.
Over there, Tang Jing saw that the two of them didn’t move, and couldn’t help but reminded loudly: “Hey! What are you doing stupidly! Do you want to be eaten!”
It’s a pity that no one responded to his words, Xuan Xiao picked up a dead branch from the ground, Ling Xiao Treading Yun’s light work, and suddenly rushed forward. When he entered the fighting state, his handsome face instantly became a bit more charming and wild.
Pei Yi was the last one to act, but he was the one who played the most relaxed. His whole body seemed to have no weight. His slender and straight legs barely moved. His posture was handsome, with his fingers as a sword and strong. The internal force gushed out, accurately cutting off the ant’s neck.
Xuan Xiao’s movements followed Pei Yi closely, and when Pei Yi killed a splittooth ant, the dead branch in his hand was also inserted into the head of the one in front of him.
Tang Jing showed a shocked expression, and dealt with the gigantic clefttooth ant that had been raged by the gunshot wound in front of him, “God! Are you still human!”
Yang Li and Cook also wanted to ask these words. Cook watched sluggishly as Pei Yi stepped on the corpse of the Tooth-Splitting Ant and borrowed his strength to help Benson. They couldn’t help but swear: “Fuck! Perverted!”
Cook grabbed Yang Li, his eyes still stuck to Pei Yi, “Did you see that! He didn’t use weapons at all! He didn’t touch the **** ant! I saw a flash of white light… Damn it! , Am I dazzled??”
While he was speaking, the cracktooth ant in front of Benson was also killed.
“I’m going! It’s really a volley attack!” Cook tried to widen his eyes, trying to see Pei’s movements clearly.
Yang Li pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose to observe the battle between Pei Yi and the others, and said in a calm tone: “I now understand why they are the only survivors in the’Blood Raiders’ kidnapping case.”
The first battle against the upper splittooth ants was quickly over. Pei did not let them rest, but continued to search for the next team of ants.
Once the battle was over, Xuan Xiao immediately came over to hold Pei Yi, and glanced at Pei Yi’s legs from time to time, and his worried expression was self-evident.
Tang Jing looked at Pei Yi with a ghostly look all the way, and finally couldn’t help but asked: “Your legs are obviously useful, why do you always want him to hold them?”
Cook who followed them quietly nodded, he said he wanted to know too! Seeing Pei Yi’s slender figure and being held all the time, it would really make people misunderstand that he is a sick child!
This question has been asked too many times, and Pei Yi didn’t bother to explain it, so he replied with a lazy smile: “Because I don’t want to walk.”
Tang Jing was stunned, obviously feeling very unbelievable for this answer.
Cook tweeted twice, and quietly said to Yang Li, “It’s still wayward, but do these perverted characters usually have special hobbies?”
“He’s lying.” Yang Li said lightly, and then opened the new students’ standings.
