Alien Relic Hunter

No wonder the people in that team marked this place with a star... If there is a seed of erosion on this desert island, then this cave is the only "safe zone".

Not only that, if these stalactites are used to process weapons - such as polishing them into warheads, then anyone, even a child, can use them at a safe distance as long as he can aim and pull the trigger. Easily deal with an erosion seed.

Even if the Seed of Corrosion cannot be completely killed, it can at least be brought back to its previous state of suspended animation.

It's a pity that Ke Lan doesn't have the tools at hand now. Otherwise, as long as he can process dozens of rounds of these bullets, he would even dare to take the initiative to find the corrosive seed in a duel.

But what makes Ke Lan a little strange is that these stalactites are quite well preserved, with no traces of being mined at all... If this kind of thing is really effective against erosion seeds, Ark's top brass will never treat it like this. It doesn't make sense that a valuable resource was abandoned on this deserted island... and that it remained untouched for decades.

Could it be that this team was wiped out in the end and failed to send the news back?

Or is there another secret?

Taking off his deep diving suit, Ke Lan began to walk towards the depths of the cave. These things cannot be concluded by just guessing. He currently has too few clues about this desert island and this mysterious island. The team, about what happened here decades ago... everything is still shrouded in heavy fog, and what he can see is just the tip of the iceberg above the water.

"It would be great if we could find more bodies of other people in this team... It would be best if we could find their captain. He must have a complete mission record on his body."

Ke Lan thought this way and lowered his head to avoid a stalactite that was about to form a stone pillar. But when he raised his head again, he directly hit a pair of black eye sockets!

"...Damn," Ke Lan was stunned for two seconds before he realized that it was a skeleton leaning on the rock wall. "I almost died of being scared to death by you, my old friend."

He shined the light of the flashlight on the skeleton - there was no doubt that the deceased belonged to the same team as the two mummies on the ground, but due to the environment, the clothes on it were almost rotten, and it was vaguely It can also be distinguished that this is a very old army combat training uniform.

Over the past few decades, even the strong nylon fabric has softened. Ke Lan just pulled it gently, and the satchel hanging on the skeleton's waist was torn directly, and everything inside fell to the ground. land.

Two signal flares that had been damaged by moisture, a rusty multifunctional folding saber, a magnesium rod used to light fires in the wild, and two condoms that had not yet been opened.

Ke Lan checked all these things carefully, but what made him feel a little regretful was that there was no valuable information left on them - except for the name engraved on the side of the folding saber.

"Connelly..."

Ke Lan glanced at the skeleton. This Connelly should have been his last name during his lifetime.

Although Ke Lan found nothing on these relics, when Ke Lan focused on Connelly's sternum, his expression changed -

"Hey...could this be..."

There are obvious traces of fractures in Connelly's ribs on the left chest, but the angle of the fracture is opposite to the common traumatic fracture. It is bent outwards, and the spine is also deformed to a certain extent. As for the sternum, it is no longer He flew away... It looked as if a huge foreign object was forcefully stuffed into his chest, splitting his entire chest...

Ke Lan couldn't help but think of the huge heart in the second corpse... That heart almost occupied the entire chest of the corpse, and inside that heart, wrapped was the "core" of the Seed of Corrosion. .

It seems that this Connelly was also parasitized by the Seed of Corrosion. Judging from the damage to the bones, the Seed of Corrosion in his body should not have been removed artificially, but seemed to have burst out of his chest and voluntarily given up on the host. of……

"Why does it feel like the plot in "Alien"..." Ke Lan took a deep breath, but judging from the performance of the aliens in the movie, the erosion seeds are obviously much stronger than the terrifying creatures invented by the screenwriters. .

"The Seed of Erosion voluntarily gave up its host. It seems to have something to do with the environment of this cave... It must have felt a fatal threat." Ke Lan gestured at the volume of Connelly's chest with his finger. The Seed of Erosion's The core is at least twice as large as the one in the second remains... In other words, there must be more than one erosion seed on this desert island.

"Isn't this island a breeding ground used by the Alphas to cultivate erosion seeds..." The corners of Ke Lan's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly, thinking of the hatchery in the abyss and the one sealed in the glacier. Those pieces of meat...the Alpha people seem to be particularly keen on cultivating monsters, but...why do they do this?

Is it true, as what is said on the stone tablet, that they are trying to create powerful enough warriors for that "true god"?

The height of the Alpha civilization is already unmatched by humans. So what level of civilization is the "god" in the eyes of the Alpha people?

A chill suddenly rushed down Ke Lan's back... He suddenly thought of the fungus culture experiments he had done in school - for the fungi on those petri dishes, that piece of culture medium was already the entire world.

They will not understand the existence of humans, just as humans cannot understand the existence of higher civilizations.

Humans only need to sprinkle a few drops of inactivator in a petri dish to destroy their entire world.

…

"Fuck...I'm going to think about what these things are for..." Ke Lan shook his head hard, "It's better to find a way to escape from this ghost place first."

Ke Lan's plan was very clear. First, he had to survive. Only by surviving would he have the chance to wait for rescue, otherwise everything would be empty talk.

In view of the fact that there may be multiple types of erosion on the island, if he wants to protect himself, he must rely on these strange stalactites - although he does not know what is strange about these stalactites.

Secondly, he had to find a way to continue tracing the clues of this team - since they came to this place decades ago, then by working backwards from the path they came from, Ke Lan might be able to know the way to leave here. .

Third, judging from the stalactites nailed to the second remains, these people obviously know something about the Seed of Erosion and its restraint methods. If the solution to the Seed of Erosion can be found from the clues they left, With the method of cell invasion, Ke Lan's original purpose of this operation has been achieved, and they no longer need to risk going to the bottom of the sea to find those damn flesh-eating worms.

Fourth - If these people have any usable means of transportation left behind, then for Ke Lan, it would be like winning the jackpot.
