Alien Relic Hunter.

Chapter 274
The moment the black shadow appeared, Ke Lan had already activated the time stagnation... However, the speed of the black shadow was far faster than Ke Lan's reaction. Even in the stagnant state, Ke Lan only captured a vague virtual Shadow, and the real body of the other party has already hidden behind the stone pillar.

Layton was right, it was indeed a humanoid creature, but it was nearly three meters tall - the tallest in Ke Lan's team was the 1.9 meters five biochemically modified Layton, but this Things are much higher than Layton.

But contrary to Layton's strong figure, this creature's figure is very thin, just like the palm they have seen now, this thing is so thin that it can be described by the word skinny.

But above its shoulders, there is a very huge head.

Ke Lan couldn't see the other person's face clearly, but vaguely, he seemed to see more than two eyes on the other person's face.

The eyes of the two sides only met for a short time, so short that Ke Lan didn't even have time to generate a corresponding image in his mind.

Rather than saying it was running, it might be better to say that the creature was teleporting... If it were converted into a digital image at 120 frames per second, the whole process would probably not exceed one frame.

"It's that hand... isn't that right?" The hound took a step back and stood shoulder to shoulder with Ke Lan.

"That weird, uncoordinated body proportion...it's exactly the same as that palm." Ke Lan nodded, "It's so fast, I can't catch it."

"Old dog, you come to command, you have more experience than me in combat." Ke Lan said proactively.

"Okay... if the speed is fast, then there is only one way to deal with it." The hound gestured to Layton, "Can you achieve fire coverage?"

"It's hard." Layton shook his head with a bitter expression on his face, "The stone pillars here are too dense, and there are many dead spots for attack, so it's impossible to cover all directions."

"Then let's stay away from the stone pillar and wait for it to come out... There is no shelter for it to hide in the 50-meter open space in the middle." The hound said, "We are ready."

Layton pulled out a metal cylinder hidden in the dark compartment of the mechanical arm, and threw it towards the open space ahead— before the metal cylinder hit the ground, thousands of alloy particles spilled out of it, scattered to the ground.

This is a kind of miniature electromagnetic landmine. As long as the target touches one of them, the other alloy particles will immediately attract towards the triggered one, and then release a strong current—no matter how fast the thing is, It is also impossible to walk through this minefield unscathed.

But no one thought that the screams came from behind.

When Ke Lan turned his head, he just saw that Martin's abdominal cavity was torn open by a long, thin, pale palm, and the greasy intestines mixed with blood and filth flowed out from the opening—and in his Behind him, the monster finally revealed its true appearance.

It has limbs and torso similar to that of a human being. On the bony skeleton is a layer of gray-white rough skin full of boils. Its fingers are almost twice as long as a normal person, and the sharp nails are stained with bright red blood. .

On its neck, there is a huge head that is completely disproportionate to its body. Viewed from the front, it looks like a severely deformed radial melon (Note 1), while on the front of the head, it is Dozens of eyeballs of different sizes are embedded like a shower head.

"When did it run to the back?!" The hound shouted and shot, but the monster lifted Martin in his hand and blocked it in front of him. All the bullets fired by the hound hit the ground. None of the shots hit the monster.

"Is this another monster, or the one just now? How could it be so fast?" Layton roared. He had already stretched out the energy shield and protected Ke Lan and Qin Zhao behind him. The multi-barreled machine gun started to rotate, but did not fire for a long time.

The three body bags containing his teammates were right at the monster's feet. If Layton swept past them, no one could guarantee whether the monster would use the body bags as a shield again.

Its speed is very fast, and its intelligence level is not low. These two points alone are enough to make people feel tricky.

"This thing... it doesn't run away..." The hound quickly replaced a full magazine, "Look at its eyes, it has several eyes staring at the body bag on the ground...fuck it , this thing is intelligent! It knows that we will be wary, and dare not use heavy firepower!"

"Let me come! You cover!" Zhuoligetu suddenly let out a deep growl, he pulled out a Mongolian scimitar with a thick back from his waist, and threw himself directly at the monster!

"Old dog! Layton! Let's attack the eyes on its head first! Predict its movements before shooting, and try not to accidentally injure your teammates!" Ke Lan said. Less than three meters away!

He roared again, and threw the scimitar in his hand directly towards the monster's face, but he himself bent down suddenly, pulled the two body bags on the ground, and quickly retreated.

From the very beginning, Zhuoligetu's target was not the monster himself, but the body bags held by him as "hostages". The fierce and fierce posture before was actually a bluff. some more.

"Nice job!" cried the Hound. "Leyton, meet him!"

As soon as the hound finished speaking, Layton jumped forward with the sudden burst of power from the exoskeleton and mechanical prosthesis, pushing the shield to the front.

And that monster is stepping back quickly!It grabbed Martin, whose life and death were unknown, with one hand, and a body bag left on the ground with the other. In just half a second, it was more than 20 meters away from Ke Lan and the others. The trigger was released.

"Damn it, this damn thing is still holding hostages!"

"I always feel...it can understand us." Ke Lan opened his eyes wide and looked directly at the dozens of eyes of the monster. For some reason, he always felt that the monster seemed to be smiling.

In the next second, the humanoid monster suddenly turned around and got into the shaft where Ke Lan and the others came down!

"It wants to escape?!"

[PS Note 1: Radiant Melon: Indigenous plant of Planet Alpha. The shape of the fruit is similar to the chayote on the earth, but the individual volume is more than ten to fifteen times that of the chayote. It is named because it often grows in the radiation area.The pulp contains high doses of radiation and cannot be used as food. Although the squeezed juice has certain industrial value, the purification steps are cumbersome and costly. Therefore, this species has not been included in the list of economic crops, nor has it been carried out on a large scale. Large-scale artificial planting.

The research institute has set up a project to try to improve the variety of Radix gourd, but the progress is slow. 】
