A mob of clones

Chapter 620: Linglong Wu He: What's the point of assassination if we can't kill all the witnesses?!
"Whoohoo-"

Looking at the neck in front of him that was full of burrs like a piece of toilet paper that had been torn apart, Zheng Zha still kept his fists clenched, standing in place, and breathing heavily.

The scene in front of my eyes went from clear to blurry.

After three or five seconds, Zheng Zha felt as if all the strength in his body had been completely drained away.

My feet couldn't help but go weak and I wanted to fall backwards. Sweat kept pouring down my body like a stream.

The man's face quickly turned from rosy to pale, as if his body had been hollowed out.

Fortunately, Zheng Zha did not really fall headfirst to the ground. His two arms quickly stretched out and supported Zheng Zha's figure upright.

He raised his head slightly, and what came into his sight were the two figures who had just joined the Zhongzhou team, Zero and Overlord.

When Overlord saw that Zheng Zha still had the energy to look at him, he immediately showed him a brilliant smile and gave him a thumbs up. Two Chinese words with a bit of accent came out of his mouth, representing Overlord's highest respect.

"Brilliant!"

Even the serious Lingdian smiled at Zhengzhao at this moment and nodded slightly to show his approval.

Zhao Yingkong on the opposite side also drew out his dagger at this time, but looking at the fallen corpse in front of him, and looking at the thing exposed by the place where he was pierced, Zhao Yingkong couldn't help but frowned.

"machine?"

At this time, the old people from the Zhongzhou team were nearby.

They quickly surrounded him. Zhang Jie immediately took out the hemostatic spray, pulled open the clothes on Zheng Zha's shoulders that were stuck to his flesh and blood, and quickly sprayed the spray on him. While spraying, he spoke:

"Zheng Zha, you are really good!"

"Zheng Zha, you look very bad, how do you feel now?"

"Do you need some water?"

Looking at the concern from Zhang Jie, Zhan Lan and Mou Gang, Zheng Zha showed a faint smile on his face.

"I just feel a little weak, but nothing serious else."

"I have the blood of the vampire race, and my recovery ability is very strong. I should be able to recover soon."

Chu Xuan, who had not participated in the entire battle, spoke up to confirm Zheng Zha's statement.

"This is a sign that he hasn't fully adapted to the first-level gene lock yet."

"As long as it is successfully activated, injuries of this degree will recover quickly."

"After opening it a few more times, you can turn the state of the gene lock into normal power."

Hearing the voice, everyone in the Zhongzhou team couldn't help but look up, and then saw Chu Xuan still standing in front of the central control computer.

Seeing this scene, everyone in Team Zhongzhou’s brains froze for a moment.

The battle just now was too urgent.

Although it seems like a long time, it has not been that long since the fight started.

During this period, except for a few people like Zheng Zha and Zhao Yingkong, most of them could only protect themselves and had no time to care about others.

Therefore, no one noticed that Chu Xuan had been standing in front of the central control panel without moving at all.

The most outrageous thing is that the iron-blooded warrior actually did not attack Chu Xuan from beginning to end.

It was as if Chu Xuan had also become invisible like Wu He in the spirit cage before...

Feeling the gazes cast upon him from behind, Chu Xuan naturally knew what these people wanted to ask.

He stretched out his hand and lifted his glasses, displaying the central control panel of the spacecraft in front of him on a certain page. Then he raised his foot and came to the place where the head of the "Iron Warrior" was shot away.

He picked up the huge head as if he was holding a basketball.

Chu Xuan reached out and tapped the mask a few times casually, then took it off, revealing a human face.

Li Shuaxi, who still had some memory of the plot of Alien 1, couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw this scene.

"This is Ash from the Alien team! The robot that was ordered to bring the Alien egg back to Earth!!"

As if to prove Li Shuaxi's words, the white man with only a head left actually opened his mouth at this moment - "Bring back the organism first, the others are secondary."

At this time, Chu Xuan also started to explain:

"I noticed something unusual when you started fighting."

"When the enemy attacks, they will first attack areas where there are a large number of people."

"After fighting for a while, they will prioritize attacking combat units that pose a greater threat to them."

"But without exception, he always avoids the same thing when he attacks, and that is the central control computer."

Having said this, Chu Xuan pushed his glasses on his face.

"According to my calculations, he fired a total of thirty-seven laser cannons during the battle, all of which were aimed as far as possible at the location of the central control computer."

"The laser emission interval is about five seconds, and it takes about 1.5 seconds from the blue light turning on to the emission."

"But sometimes the route has to pass through the central control computer at the rear, so the designed route is changed. It takes a full four seconds from the blue light to the launch."

"A normal Iron-blooded Warrior would never pay attention to these things."

"The only one who would pay attention to this is..."

"It is programmed that the robot must return home with the aircraft."

"Because if the central control computer is damaged, it means that the spacecraft cannot return and the mission fails..."

Zhan Lan added the second half of the sentence for Chu Xuan, but she still looked incredulous.

"Why can human robots use the Predator's technological armor?"

"And how could there be Predator armor in Alien 1?"

In response to Zhan Lan's question, Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses. This time he did not give a direct answer, but pointed to the central control computer next to him and said:

"We need to find the answer to this ourselves."

Chu Xuan walked to the central processing computer, opened a surveillance video, and said:

"Come, look at this."

At this time, there are a total of seven people shown on the surveillance screen.

These are the seven main characters in the movie Alien.

There was no sound in the surveillance video, but Chu Xuan could read lips. Based on his retelling, everyone could tell that they were discussing whether to land on the planet that showed signs of life.

This is the beginning of the Alien movie.

Under the instigation of robots with special mission instructions, the protagonists went to the planet to explore.

The surveillance screen then jumped to the scene where the protagonist group got out of the spaceship to investigate.

“Look here’s where it’s different from the original movie.”

Pointing at the person in the space suit in the picture, Chu Xuan said:

"In the original book, this robot did not follow other explorers to the planet to search for aliens."

As Chu Xuan spoke, he operated the central control computer to jump to another surveillance screen.

That was the scene of everyone returning to the spacecraft.

The robot disguised as a human brought back a large box.

"This is the origin of the Iron Blood equipment!"

"The Lord God modified the original movie and changed the alien planet that originally had no participation from the Predator into the Predator's trial site!"

"Let the Predator's equipment appear here."

The people around remained silent.

Chu Xuan didn't care about this, he just continued to adjust the surveillance and switched the screen to another scene.

It was a scene where one of the staff members had a huge hole in his chest and an alien creature burst out from it.

After the alien burst out of its belly, it let out a roar and turned to look at the location of the surveillance video. It crawled along the wall like a snake with sticky pus in its young body to the side of the surveillance camera and smashed it, turning the surveillance screen into a pitch-black...

Seeing the surveillance being destroyed, Chu Xuan's expression remained unchanged. He reached out to adjust his glasses and continued to switch the screen, saying as he did so:

"The cabin where the first alien was born was cabin number five. It was a warehouse with a very large area."

"I have gathered all the video footage from several surveillance cameras around Cabin 5."

"We found many traces of facehugger activity, and also captured footage of several people being parasitized and then aliens bursting out of their bodies."

"But we didn't capture the scene where the first alien walked out of cabin number five."

"It's a pity that when the following aliens grew up, they destroyed all the surveillance cameras one after another."

"All the surveillance cameras around cabin number five are damaged."

"The surveillance cameras in other places are intact, but there are no alien images reflected in those images."

"So I speculate that the original alien may have grown into the Alien Queen and laid eggs in Chamber 5."

"And the other worker bees are preparing food for it."

"After all, no matter what species it is, production is an extremely energy-intensive behavior."

"As for the aliens' food, it's obvious - it's meat!"

There was nothing wrong with Chu Xuan's explanation, but some people frowned as they listened.

"That's not right~, then why weren't these bodies taken away?"

In response to Li Shuaxi's question, Chu Xuan was silent for a moment and explained:
"Remember that one of the bodies had corrosion marks from alien blood on it?"

Hearing this, everyone on the opposite side immediately understood.

"You mean?"

"That's right!"

Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses and said:

"Even with the Predator's armor, it is still difficult for a robot to ensure its own safety!"

"It's impossible for him to kill all these aliens for the sake of the mission."

"When I checked the central control panel, I found that the doors of several warehouses were locked due to permissions."

“I could have opened those doors, but I didn’t.”

"I guess he will choose to injure the aliens carrying food! Lead them to a certain location and lock them up!" "And it is very likely that the aliens and the Alien Queen will be imprisoned separately!"

Recalling the scene where I ran and it chased me, I couldn't escape even if I had wings, and it scratched the dust through the wall, the people around nodded.

"That means we only need to follow the passage to where the Alien Queen is, and then kill them to complete this mission, right?!"

The other aliens separated from the Alien Queen, and everyone around them couldn't think of a better time than now to complete the mission immediately.

However, Chu Xuan nodded and shook his head.

"It's possible under normal circumstances, but..."

Chu Xuan opened another surveillance video.

But this time the surveillance video is different from usual ones.

What appeared in the world was not the scene inside a spaceship, but a picture of deep space.

And in the deep space of the universe, a UFO spacecraft suddenly appeared without any warning and crashed into the surveillance screen.

Then the surveillance screen shook and fell into darkness.

This time Chu Xuan did not speak, but just looked at the surveillance screen, but his thoughts had already been silently heard by everyone present.

"Can you guess where the spaceship in this picture comes from?"

Needless to say, the same answer emerged in everyone's mind, an answer that they really didn't want to face - "Iron Warrior"!
"Oh my god! This half-wit with only equipment but no fighting skills almost took our lives!"

"There's actually a spaceship here?!"

"The Lord God doesn't take our lives seriously at all!"

Looking at the spaceship in the surveillance screen, Zhang Jie held his head with both hands, scratching his ears and cheeks like a monkey.

The faces of the others were not much better.

However, Chu Xuan's information release was not yet complete. He jumped to the video again and came to the last useful surveillance footage he found.

In the picture, there is a door frame broken in the metal wall that allows people to pass through.

Then three Iron-Blooded Warriors walked out of the door.

However, after they walked out, their figures disappeared instantly. After the battle just now, they understood that this was the stealth technology of the Iron Blood Warriors.

The next moment, a dart flew out, and the surveillance screen was instantly split in two, and then fell into darkness...

"This is the last surveillance footage!"

"It was probably shortly after we started fighting."

"The other surveillance was basically completely destroyed."

"The next steps will depend on us alone!"

Instantly, the people of the Zhongzhou team were speechless...

After a while, Zheng Zha, who was still a little pale, struggled to stand up with the help of everyone, and then he said seriously:

"Since everything has been confirmed, there is nothing more to say. Let's go!"

Hearing this, the people around couldn't help but look over, and Zhan Lan next to him directly advised:
"Zheng Zha, you just opened your gene lock once, take a rest first."

"In fact, we don't have to be so anxious. Aliens and Predators are mortal enemies. Maybe the arrival of Predators can help us reduce the difficulty of the mission."

"No, it won't! Don't forget that the Predator's equipment is still here! It's only a very small chance that they will fight the Alien Queen without the equipment! The greater possibility is that they will come to us first to get the equipment back!"

"And fighting in the Predator style is absolutely inevitable!"

It was Chu Xuan who first refuted Zhan Lan, but after he spoke, he looked at Zheng Zha again, but did not object to Zhan Lan's suggestion to wait a while.

"But we can certainly wait!"

"According to the information provided by the surveillance, the Iron Blood Warrior entered the spacecraft from cabin 43."

"The Alien Queen is imprisoned in cabin number five. Based on the distribution of the corpses, the Alien may be imprisoned in cabin number thirty or so."

"If we operate properly, we may be able to let the Aliens and the Predator take the lead in a fight."

"Reduce the difficulty of the mission first!"

Chu Xuan’s suggestion was very good, but unfortunately Zheng Zha looked at Li Xiaoyi, who was lying on the ground with only half of his body left and was not far from death, and shook his head slightly.

He reached out and took out a bundle of grenades and a bottle of recovery potion he had prepared in advance from his clothes, and poured them into his mouth forcefully.

After waiting for his body to recover some strength, he spoke with a firm look in his eyes:

"We can wait, but some people can't!"

"This is a risky matter. This is my promise! I will do this alone."

As he spoke, Zheng Zha looked up at Chu Xuan and motioned for him to open the door.

Chu Xuan looked at Zheng Zha deeply, but did not refuse. He just did as he said.

The hatch opened and Zheng Zha walked out alone.

However, just as he took a deep breath and prepared to move forward when he looked at Cang in front of him, a series of footsteps sounded beside him, causing him to turn his head.

Then he saw a face with a scar.

"Heh~, Zheng Zha, don't think that you can become a real boss just because you survived a reincarnation mission and got a few more reward points~, 500 reward points for an alien, take me with you on such a lucrative business."

Next came the stern-faced killer.

"You entrusted me to take care of him. He can't die. I'll go too!"

The other side of the eye girl.

"I am coming too!"

Then Overlord, Mou Gang, Zhao Yingkong...

Whether they were newcomers or veterans from the Zhongzhou team, they all stood behind Zheng Zha at this moment.

There was no inspiring speech, nor any promise of a bright future, but the battle just now made everyone recognize Zheng Zha.

Seeing this scene, Zheng Zha was moved and nodded vigorously!

Chu Xuan in the back watched this scene with eyes as calm as water.

Chu Xuan did not have any other comments about the people who did not listen to his advice, he just raised his glasses.

"Mortal emotions..."

Then he turned his head to look at Li Shuaxi, who did not go out with the others, and Li Xiaoyi, who was lying on the ground. He frowned slightly, feeling that he had forgotten something. He reached out and smashed the head in his hand, taking out a chip from it.

Hearing the reminder sound "Kill the plot character Ash, reward 500 points, and one D-level side plot", he raised his hand and clicked to close the hatch...

……

The focus returned to Zheng Zha.

Zheng Zha and Zhao Yingkong also heard the same reminder, but they didn't care about it for the time being...

Walking in the spacious corridor, everyone always felt that they had forgotten something.

He looked at all the people present, recalled the few people in the main control cabin, confirmed that this should be all they had this time, then he put aside all distractions and focused on moving forward.

But the scene ahead was indeed something no one had expected.

The metal walls were covered with scratches and corrosion holes.

It seemed that a fierce battle had taken place here.

You can even see broken fragments of the alien's exoskeleton on the ground.

Everyone continued to move forward, and then they found something similar to blood on the ground, but it did not corrode the ground, so it did not seem to be alien blood.

The traces of the battle extended from outside the main control cabin to cabin No. 5, the end of their target.

However, what puzzled them was that although there were traces of battles everywhere along the way, they did not encounter any real aliens or Iron Warriors, not even any body parts.

Here they couldn't even hear any sound of fighting, as if all the fighting had ended before they arrived.

until--

"boom--"

When everyone arrived at a location not far from cabin No. 5, a huge explosion suddenly came from cabin No. 5.

The blazing sparks pushed the air currents, advancing continuously in the closed cabin. The members of the Zhongzhou team, who were not far away, almost lost their balance under this impact.

Even the eardrums were almost shattered, and the ears were filled with buzzing sounds.

However, due to previous experience fighting robots wearing Predator armor, he has developed a certain immunity to this effect.

After the shock wave dissipated, everyone looked at each other, then tiptoed carefully and came to cabin number five.

Then the strongest one, Zheng Zha, took the lead and entered first.

But everyone was surprised to find that Zheng Zha seemed to be hit by something after entering it? Like a spell that froze him, he was stunned in place and motionless.

He just opened his eyes wide in confusion, as if he had seen something incredible.

Confused, the members of the Zhongzhou team glanced at each other, and then entered one by one, their eyes widened.

At this time, inside the cabin——

Broken alien eggs were everywhere, and the juice inside was spilled all over the ground.

Perhaps there was also diluted corrosive blood that was slowly corroding the floor.

And above this corrosive liquid, one alien after another that had lost its tail lay on the ground, with the tails of other aliens piercing directly through the head.

Even the Alien Queen is no exception, and there are three Iron Warriors strung on its tail like a string of candied haws.

Without exception, all of them had signs of burning on their bodies, as if they had been boiled at high temperature for a moment.

And above the head of the largest alien queen in the center of cabin number five, two figures stood looming.

Two figures, one black and one white, looked at Zheng Zha and others who walked in from outside the warehouse, with a look of surprise on their faces.

But then, a smile appeared on the face of the black-haired young man, and he stabbed the Alien Queen's neck with the saber he had snatched from the Iron Warrior, piercing through her neck, and waved to the people in front of him and said:
"Hey, please stop looking at me like that."

"Everyone knows that I am an assassin, a assassin..."

"After I killed the target, I also dealt with all the witnesses. It's normal to complete the assassination."
