I have a set of monster experience cards

Chapter 254 The Engineer Appears

"Humanoid?!"

An important message transmitted from the communicator was immediately captured by Xiao and Holloway.

Could it be that the goal they had been thinking about finally appeared?

Should he go back outside to see what the humanoid attack was like, or should he stay in the spaceship where the situation was even more unknown and explore the secret door?

At this time, David said: "I'm afraid the situation of the remaining troops outside is not good. Why don't you go to support first? I will stay here to guard this door."

Upon hearing this, the two looked at each other and ran quickly in the direction they came from with the other team members.

Watch their backs until they disappear.

David then turned around, not looking at the secret door he had just opened, but looking in another direction.

In a place that had not been scanned by the drone, You Huan felt David's gaze and was not surprised.

As an android, David possesses heightened senses beyond ordinary people.

He thought for a moment and slowly walked out of the shadows.

He originally wanted to go outside the spacecraft to see what was happening with the humanoid creatures that attacked the group of people.

But since David took the initiative to stay here, he obviously had a purpose, so he might as well...

When David saw the life form slowly walking out, even though he was as calm as he was, he couldn't help but take a step back.

The light of the searchlight cast a long, thin shadow on the ground.

As the creature moved, the shadows changed until its full form was revealed.

The shadow also fell on a wall, reflecting a pair of fan-shaped crowns with majestic, symmetrical and bifurcated horns.

Opposite the shadow is an alien life covered in a pitch-black exoskeleton.

The elegant, slender and strong body is like a completely boned giant lion, but the outline is sharper.

The eye-catching horns on the head resemble a crown, but the lack of eyes makes it even more eerie.

David's pupils shrank and he stared blankly at the creature in front of him. The perceptual module used to build an appreciation of art and beauty fell into chaos.

Facing such a monster whose whole body was built for killing, his first thought was:

This is definitely a beautiful killer, a perfect life form...

But soon rationality returned, and he moved his hand slightly, thinking about whether he should pull out the gun.

However, the next move of the creature in front of him was completely beyond his expectation.

He saw it shake its head slightly, then turned around and walked deeper into the passage.

This means...

David silently stuffed his gun back into its holster and followed him.

You Huan was walking in front, and when he saw him following him, he didn't show any sign, but instead sped up.

Soon, they ignored all the forks along the way, went straight into the spacecraft, and came to a room.

This is a slightly recessed cabin, with a lower floor than the passage.

Because of this, black water can gather here to form a shallow ocean.

Yes, You Huan led David to the room where he was born.

That room filled with black water.

Arriving here, David no longer needed his guidance. The moment he saw the black water, he walked forward.

Standing high up overlooking the surging black viscous liquid.

He whispered: "This is the 'savior' created by 'them', with infinite possibilities of water of life..."

It sounds like he does know something about the relationship between engineers and black water and the origin of black water.

This is normal.

Interstellar navigation is a long process. Before reaching the destination, human beings with limited lifespan must enter a dormant cabin to sleep.

But androids don't need to sleep. In theory, they have unlimited lifespans.

David had spent this long period of time learning everything he could about being an engineer.

The engineers did not completely leave after creating humans, but also guided the development of multiple ancient human civilizations, so they left a lot of information.

David, who has integrated all this information, can be said to be the person who knows the most about engineers among the thousands of people who came here.

If You Huan guessed correctly, based on the information in the previous life movie and some suspected movie scripts circulating on the Internet.

Engineers once faced the dilemma of losing their fertility and slowly declining their race.

In that case, they seemed to have found a "god" for themselves, a god who could save their tribe.

Later, the gods fell. They used the material left by the gods to create black water, and then used things suspected of black water and their own flesh and blood to create humans.

I don’t know whether their “population revitalization plan” has succeeded or failed. After David finished sighing, he looked sideways and found that the creature that led him here had disappeared at some point.

There was a little doubt on his face, and then he looked at the containers holding black water in front of him...

At this time, You Huan had quickly arrived outside the spacecraft.

The area near the spacecraft has become a battlefield.

The human's thermal weapons were glowing with fire as they battled several figures coming from the forest.

The human side has a large number of people and sophisticated weapons, but when fighting their opponents, everyone's faces are obviously uneasy.

Because the opponent's methods are really weird.

The bullets hit these humanoid figures, which were over two meters tall and wrapped in cloth, and penetrated the cloth.

But these humanoid figures just paused for a moment, and then walked quickly towards the crowd as usual.

When they close to a certain distance from the crowd, the body under the cloth lifts up.

The arm wrapped in cloth stretched out, palm open and aimed at a human target.

The next moment, a mouth full of spiral teeth was torn open in the palm of his hand.

A fleshy bullet flew out of the palm of his hand and hit the target's face in the blink of an eye.

The bullet expands and turns into a multi-legged insect-like creature that engulfs the target's head.

"Uh-huh!" The person who was hugged enthusiastically only struggled for a moment or two before falling backward to the ground.

You Huan, who had just stepped out of the spaceship, happened to see this scene.

Is this a fireable facehugger bullet?

At this time, a strange low sound came over him, and he actually felt like his whole body was out of control.

He was almost exposed in front of this group of humans.

But the influence of this sound on him only lasted for a moment, and was forcefully dispelled by him.

However, humans are not able to deal with it so easily.

Their ears could not hear the sounds of these cloth-covered enemies, but they could feel a sense of chest tightness, shortness of breath, dizziness and nausea.

This discomfort soon became so severe that most of the soldiers collapsed directly to the ground.

Seeing that the target's defense began to collapse, these humanoid figures immediately accelerated their pace and approached.

But suddenly, a black shadow flashed quickly in the woods next to a humanoid figure.

The poisonous hook pierced the body directly and dragged the humanoid figure into the woods!

You Huan flicked his tail and threw the figure heavily to the ground.

The paralyzing poison on the poisonous hook made the figure unable to move.

With a flick of his claws, he tore open the robe this guy was wearing, revealing his true face.

Pale skin, similar to humans lacking hair.

Sure enough, this is an engineer!

Except for the robe that covers the body, its close-fitting clothing is very thin and can even be called tatters.

The bullet holes made by human firearms on its body are clearly visible.

What flowed out of each hole was not red blood, but a small amount of black viscous liquid.

Blackwater…

You Huan watched the muscles near the wound squirming and the granulation growing, slowly filling the hole.

The bullets were automatically squeezed out.

As he had guessed before, the engineers on this planet had mastered the black water technology and used it to strengthen themselves.

The engineer lay paralyzed on the ground, his pure black eyes looking at the black water life observing him from above.

There was a very similar look of surprise, confusion, and fear on his face.

The next moment, a tail pierced its chest.

Completely destroy the tissue in the center of his chest.

The strange sound that echoed through the forest immediately disappeared.

Everyone's symptoms of discomfort dissipated quickly, and they once again resisted other engineers.
