Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 26 Safe Exit
At this moment, a burst of rustling between the rocks came from the top of the cave, and everyone looked up, only to find that a new passage appeared directly above the high platform, and a ray of light was projected from the passage.

"Exit! It's the exit!" The Hound shouted happily, "Finally, I can leave this hellish place! The chicks in the North Third District are all waiting for Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu has to spoil you one by one when I go back!"

"Everything? Old dog, are you sure? You don't even let the [-]-point credit point go away?" Layton smiled slightly, thinking that he would be able to go out immediately, everyone's nerves were finally tense. It's a little bit more relaxed.

"Grass! If you give me a beep, I won't let you go!" Taking advantage of Layton's inability to move, the old dog kicked his ass fiercely.

"Just your... toothpick?" Layton was a little disdainful, "There is an old saying in the Chinese people, 'Tigers fall and Pingyang is bullied by dogs', you wait for me, when I'm healed, believe it or not, I'll give it to you Are you hanging on a solar photovoltaic panel?"

"Okay... If you guys want to do it, wait until you get back to the Ark. I can even sponsor a free anal expansion surgery, but for now, let's find a way to get out of here first." Ivan interrupted the two of them. After arguing, he pointed to the exit above his head, "There are two seriously injured people who can't move at the moment, Layton and Zorigato. They can't use the climbing suction cups, so we can only go up first, and then hang them out with ropes. ."

"Also, Old Dog and Akano Asano lost their protective suits. It's fine under the ground. If they get to the surface, the radiation intensity will become stronger. I'm worried that they won't be able to carry it." Ke Lan interjected.

"Then we can only go out first and find a way to get in touch with the Ark." Ivan said, "According to the original voyage of the transport plane, the Ark may not know that something happened to us."

"Is there a radio?" Ke Lan asked.

"There is one set, which was removed from the wreckage of the transport plane, but the power may be a little small." Hound said, and took out a metal box from the backpack whose outer shell had obviously suffered a serious collision, "Is it the most basic model, or is it from Second-hand goods that have been eliminated from other vehicles...Damn the logistics department, it just saves the budget at this juncture."

"Just use it." Ke Lan took the metal box, "In this way, Ivan and Hound, you stay here to take care of the wounded, and Akano Asano and I go out to ask for help, no matter if we succeed or not, within two hours we will definitely be there. Come back, if we hadn't come back..."

Ke Lan didn't go on, but everyone present knew what it would mean if Ke Lan and Akano Asano didn't come back within the scheduled time.

If the accident does happen, then Ivan and the Hound can only choose to leave Layton and Zorigtu and leave independently... The cruel test that the hunter profession has to face has created their extremely rational way of thinking. , Under the condition that there is no hope, what they need to do to stop the loss in time - it is better for two people to have a chance of life than four people to die in the ruins.

"Don't be so pessimistic. I noticed a lot of moss growing in the corner of the cave before. We can support at least three or four days with that thing, and we won't starve to death." Layton pointed to a piece of land in the distance. Fluorescence said.

It's just that they all know that any plants or fungi that emit fluorescence on Alpha star basically contain a high dose of radiation in their bodies. Eating this thing to satisfy hunger is completely equivalent to drinking poison to quench thirst. Layton said this, only to comfort them. That's it.

"You can't spit ivory out of your dog's mouth, and you keep saying dejected words all day long." The hound scolded angrily, "Okay, you hurry up... By the way, the mission report seems to mention that there are indigenous creatures in the Snow Mountain area. The signs of activity should be a large reptile, pay attention to safety."

"Yeah." Ke Lan nodded, and of course he read the mission report carefully. According to the traces taken by the drones, it should be a subspecies creature called Xuelong, which sounds like a name. It's fantastic, but this dragon can neither do magic nor breathe fire, its wings are highly degraded, and it can't even fly. A clumsy lizard of a radiation environment.

Because the oxygen content of the atmosphere of Alpha is much higher than that of the earth, the indigenous organisms on this planet are relatively large, and even bugs are dozens of times larger than similar species on the earth, such as cleft worms. It is already one of the smallest types of indigenous creatures.

However, what makes human biologists a little strange is that the brain capacity of the indigenous creatures on Alpha is not much higher than that of Earth creatures - logically speaking, after such a long evolution, it is impossible for an environment like Alpha to only An intelligent species such as the Alpha Civilization was born.

It is assumed that the Alpha Civilization has wiped out all other intelligent species on this planet, but now tens of thousands of years have passed since the Alpha Civilization disappeared. The indigenous creatures on the Alpha star have not evolved at all.

This conclusion is extremely absurd, but it is indeed the case. It seems that the genetic sequences of all creatures on this planet have been completely locked, and everything is still fixed tens of thousands of years ago... fixed at the time when the Alpha civilization disappeared.

... The passage at the top of the cave is very short, and it has reached the exit in less than 50 meters. The cold wind mixed with snow and hail is constantly flowing into the entrance of the passage. Fortunately, the suction force of the rock climbing suction cup is strong enough for Ke Lan and Akira Asano to climb up Climb out with the strong wind.

The previous judgment was very accurate. The core area of ​​the A-087 relic was indeed located within the belly of the snow-capped mountain, and the exit of this passage was just a little above the mountainside, about a third of the distance from the top of the mountain.

"We got to the top of the mountain to set up a radio, so that the signal can be transmitted far enough." Ke Lan said, and tried to walk a few steps forward, but soon, the thick snow had covered his thighs. Under such circumstances, it is simply impossible to move.

"It would be nice to have a pair of sleds, but unfortunately... wait, wait, I read that right? Isn't that our cargo hold?" Ke Lan complained and looked around, but when his eyes turned to the west side of the hillside , the whole person was completely stunned.

The cargo hold that was torn from the transport plane before is now mostly buried in the snow. All kinds of equipment are scattered all over the place. A monitor lizard with white scales is tearing at a supply made of reinforced engineering plastic with its claws. box, and behind it, there are already three identical supply boxes that have been dismantled by this violent method, which is a mess.

"It's 'Xue Long'! ... That guy is stealing our supplies!" Ke Lan can be said to be extremely upset at this moment. Some supplies need to be carefully calculated, but no one expected that most of the lost supplies would end up in this lizard's belly.

"Is it in that direction?" Asano Akira asked Ke Lan, facing the west side of the hill, "The sound of the wind and snow is very loud, and I can't hear many small noises clearly."

"Well, it should be a newly grown Xuelong with a body length of about six meters. Can you fight in this situation?" Ke Lan glanced at Akano Asano worriedly.

"It will be affected to some extent, but as long as I get close enough, I can hear it." As soon as the voice fell, Akano Asano suddenly jumped up and ran quickly on the snow.

If Ke Lan hadn't been sharp-eyed and saw that Akano Asano had tied the carbon fiber board used to support the backpack to the sole of his shoes, he would have almost thought that the light work of martial arts novels "walking snow without a trace" reappeared in all corners of the world...

"This big lizard is probably going to be unlucky..."

However, the next second his smile froze - "Asano Akira be careful! There is a bigger one, it's behind the cargo hold, your two o'clock direction!"

In the blink of an eye, Asano Akira was caught in the flank of two snow dragons, and what was even worse was that the second snow dragon spread its wings and suddenly rose into the air.

It's a mutant!
