Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 149 Close Combat

There are a total of eight "sea anemone heads" caught up in the mining area, two big and six small, the two big ones are nearly three meters long, and the six small ones are not far from human beings.

Since the evacuation of the miners had been arranged in advance, and the materials in the mining area were almost emptied, it was difficult for Ke Lan to build a temporary trench at this time.

Compared with the narrow tunnels in the depths, the only advantage of the mining area may be that it is relatively spacious. At least when facing acid attacks, Ke Lan and the others have enough room to move and dodge.

"How much ammunition do you have? I... I'm almost out of ammunition." The hound's voice was a little heavy. Before retreating, he mainly relied on his firepower to suppress the chasing "Sea Anemone Head", although the hound carried It has the most ammunition, but also consumes the most.

"I still have four and a half magazines of rifle ammunition, three high-explosive grenades, and one plastic foam mine." Ke Lan quickly checked his equipment and said.

"There are only the last three rounds of shotgun, and there are still twelve rounds of slugs, but I have run out of throwing objects." The situation on Zhuoligetu's side is not optimistic either.

"Layton, what about you?" Ke Lan turned and asked Layton who was shooting at the anemone's head.

"I still have two magazines for my rifle..." Before Layton finished speaking, the assault rifle in his hand rang out with a crisp sound, "Okay, now this is the last magazine."

"A good news and a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" Ke Lan pulled out two of his rifle magazines and threw them to Layton.

"What are you doing? Say it quickly. If you don't say it, you won't have a chance to say it." The hound said impatiently. The right arm armor was abandoned in the depths of the tunnel.

"The bad news is that we seem to have to fight these guys in close combat." Ke Lan licked his chapped lips, and pulled out a high-frequency particle vibration dagger from his waist—his armor was equipped with too many detectives. Measuring instruments and communication equipment, so weapons and equipment can only be selected as light as possible.

"What about the good news?" Ivan glanced at Ke Lan. His usual melee weapons were the lancets he often used in his daily life, but the skins of these monsters were obviously not cut by the blades of the lancets. of.

"The good news is... if you are in close combat, you don't have to worry about long-distance acid attacks." Ke Lan had already discovered when retreating just now that when the sea anemone heads rushing in front approached them, the sea anemone behind them The sunflowers no longer spit acid at them—this means that the skin of these monsters cannot resist the corrosion of acid, and the only organs that can directly contact acid are the organs that secrete acid and the surrounding area. Mere tentacles.

"But do you think we have an advantage in close combat?...Don't forget how the previous batch of hunters were killed..." The hound held the epee tightly in both hands, staring at the monsters approaching step by step against the hail of bullets.

"Those hunters equipped with power armor were killed by acid from the very beginning, and the rest are naturally not their opponents, but we are different." Ke Lan put the vibrating dagger in front of him, "At least so far, we haven't had any casualties, have we?"

"That's right, we are not the kind of cute rookies." The hound said as if to cheer himself up, "How do you say? Let's go together?"

"Get rid of the two big ones first. Akira Asano and I are responsible for the one on the right, and you, Layton, and Zhuo Ligetu deal with the one on the left. Ivan, you protect yourself," Ke Lan said.

"Okay." The Hound nodded.

"Three, two, one... go!" Ke Lan roared, the jet pack behind the power armor spewed out two blue flames, and he jumped into the air at a height of more than two meters. Raise the dagger and smash it towards the selected target!
The anemone head reacted very quickly. When Ke Lan jumped up, he raised his head and shot out a mouthful of acid. The thrust of the jetpack is too late...

Just when the acid was about to hit Ke Lan, a stream of light flashed in front of him. The acid immediately burned and turned into ashes in a blink of an eye, and this heavy power armor was In the next instant, he stepped on the head of the sea anemone fiercely!

The weight of the armor itself plus the potential energy of falling from a high place immediately trampled the head of the anemone to the ground, and the cooled energy shield was turned on again. Ke Lan stuck the shield directly on it, and there was a burst of roasting meat. "Chi Chi" sounded.

But soon, a huge force erupted from the sea anemone head, and Ke Lan was thrown out even with his armor, and crashed into a pile of plastic buckets used to hold industrial waste.

"Ke Lan! These things don't seem to feel pain! They don't feel pain!" The hound shouted loudly, Ke Lan looked up at him, and saw that most of Zoligetu's chainsword had been embedded in the other side Inside the shoulder of a sea anemone head, but the monster was not affected at all, frantically waving its upper limbs, tearing off most of the outer armor on Zoligetu's chest.

"It's only useful if you're fatally wounded." Asano Akira said, his voice was still calm, but the speed of his whole body had already reached the extreme, and Ke Lan only saw an afterimage surrounding the man who killed himself. The flying guy turned around, and the sea anemone-like tentacles on its neck had already separated from its body!
"Boom!"

The torso that lost its "head" crashed to the ground. From the beginning of the battle until now, this was the first anemone head they had killed.

Asano Akira, who successfully completed the kill, quickly stepped back to Ke Lan's side. He put the war blade on the ground and panted heavily—except for the previous fight with the flesh and blood centipede in the stone room, Ke Lan still It was the first time I saw him look so embarrassed.

"It's a lot of consumption, I need to take a break...help me buy some time." Akira Asano said to Ke Lan panting.

"Okay, how much time do you need?" Ke Lan got up from the ground and stood in front of Akira Asano.He knew that Akira Asano's swordsmanship was completely different from the one taught in the kendo hall. This miraculous ability was entirely due to the "failed experiment" at the beginning. The consumption of physical strength is far higher than that of physical strength, and the more powerful the ultimate move is, the more so it is.

Seeing the killing of the same kind, the six smaller anemone heads made a series of sharp and piercing calls at the same time... But they did not retreat, but approached Ke Lan step by step... On the other hand, on the side of the hound, when the three of them faced another three-meter-level anemone head, they had already fallen into a disadvantage, and they were retreating steadily under the opponent's attack. The new mechanical arm of the day was cut off by Qi Gen, and the ocher-red armor fragments even collapsed and flew to Ke Lan's feet.

"One-on-six...how do we fight?"
