Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 636
Several mechas immediately walked to the forefront of the battle line, but they did not draw out the melee combat weapons inserted in their waists, but picked up the "Hurricane Hammer" automatic shotgun that comes standard with the "Propeller" series of mechas. , aiming the gun at the rapidly approaching Zerg-type modified man.

In the commanding terminology of the Field Corps, close combat has never been equal to hand-to-hand combat—from ten paces away, the gun is fast; within ten paces, the gun is accurate and fast.

Although the zerg-type cyborg moves very fast, the short-range bursts of shotgun will weave a barrage net with no dead ends, completely covering all the space for it to dodge and move.

However, the actual situation was not as everyone expected—just when these propellers picked up the hurricane hammer, many scales on the zerg-type transformed man suddenly turned up, revealing the The special glands under the scales, in the next moment, a large amount of transparent liquid was suddenly ejected from these glands.

Just like spiders spitting out spider silk, these transparent liquids quickly turn white and solidify after contacting the air, forming strands of silk threads that shoot rapidly, and the pilots driving the thruster mechs have not even reacted , the machine body in the center has already been stuck by these silk threads.

Immediately afterwards, the iron can weighing more than ten tons was pulled by the opponent with these silk threads that were not much thicker than a hair, so that it lost its balance and fell heavily to the ground!
"Fire! Shoot!"

Several other propellers immediately pulled the triggers—although the full power of the Hurricane Hammer could not be exerted at this distance, what was affected was only the density of the shells, and the power of a single shot would not be weakened too much. , which is more than enough to deal with unarmored targets.

But what the pilots and soldiers could not have imagined was that the silk threads shot out from those glands quickly retracted in less than half a second, and dragged the fallen "propeller" to a different place along with the belt. In front of the worm-shaped cyborg, it blocked all the shotgun bullets fired at it like a shield.

The zerg-type modified man waved his arm, inserted the sharp blade-like limb at the front of the arm along the gap in the armor of the machine, pulled it hard, and accompanied by a burst of electric sparks, the body on the side of the propeller instantly went limp. When it fell down, the mechanical arm drooped on the ground, unable to move anymore.

"The transmission cable of the thruster has been cut." Layton said, "That guy...he is obviously familiar with the structure of this type of mecha."

Although the left side of the body was completely paralyzed, the pilot didn't give up. He manipulated the other arm of the body to pull out the thermal combat dagger at his waist from its sheath.

He can definitely be regarded as the most intuitive experiencer of the stickiness, strength and power attached to these "spider silks"—no one.

The moment the spider silk attached to the body, the muscle memory accumulated over the years of training and fighting had already made him subconsciously assume a posture of preparing to wrestle with the opponent, but the whole body was still shattered by that overwhelming force. Pulled to the ground, dragged over...

He is very clear that relying on the power of the body itself cannot break free from these shackles, not to mention that now his body is half paralyzed... Instead of struggling to do some useless work, it is better to take this opportunity to get close to the other party and give the other party A fatal blow!
The blade of the thermal combat dagger glows with an orange-yellow dim light. The light seems dim, but the actual temperature of the blade can be as high as over [-] degrees Celsius. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as cutting iron like mud.

But before the pilot stabbed the thermal combat dagger at the zerg-type cyborg who was close at hand, the opponent's mouth suddenly split into four petals like an insect's mouthparts, and a strong acid with white smoke came from it. It sprayed out from its mouth, making a hole the size of a coin in the hatch of the cockpit.

A translucent fleshy straw protruded from its mouth, and quickly pierced into the dissolved hole. Accompanied by a creepy and strange sound, the flesh that seemed to have been dissolved into a paste flowed along the hole. The root straw was sucked into the reformer's belly...

Although the distance has exceeded 20 meters, the cable connected to the machine body transmitted the screams in the cockpit back to the public channel... Just by listening to it with your ears, you can imagine What an eerie scene it was in the cockpit at the moment.

"This can't be regarded as transforming people anymore, can it?" Layton swallowed with some difficulty, and the bionic throat twitched involuntarily. "This is already closer to the definition of a monster than those native creatures...isn't it?"

"There is no doubt, this thing is a monster." Ivan said, "The remaining part of it that belongs to humans is probably less than 15.00% left."

"Doctor...how did you see the 15.00%?" Layton couldn't help asking.

"It's very simple addition and subtraction. At least the circulatory system and digestive system of this thing have been replaced. In addition, the strength is much stronger than the general erosion container. I have reason to believe that its bones and muscles It's not the original one either... Calculated in this way, there may be only one brain left in a relatively complete human organ, counting some miscellaneous things, 15.00%, should be a relatively conservative figure."

"If there is a chance, I really want to dissect its corpse." Ivan paused and added another sentence.

"Open the shield! All the front row units open the shield!"

Under the command of the commander, the remaining machines directly activated their energy shields—although those spider silks were difficult to entangle, the high temperature of the energy shields could still burn them. The thruster that was dragged away just now It was also unlucky. At the beginning, the pilot failed to open the shield due to the imbalance of the body, and after the pilot reacted, the connection route of the left arm carrying the energy shield was completely cut off by the opponent, so that he could not turn on the shield until he died. The shield is opened.

But when several machines put up their energy shields and were about to move forward, the zerg-type modified man actually held the half-paralyzed propeller directly and rushed towards them!

"Indigenous creatures of the Zerg type... have always been known for their strange powers that are completely disproportionate to their own size... If I had to use one word to describe this modified person, it would be...'perfect'." Ivan murmured road.

While speaking, the zerg-type modified man had already held up the body and crashed into the energy shield. The surface of the booster mecha was instantly burnt red, and the reactive armor on the shoulders and the outside of the arms burst one after another—— But that's all.

No matter how high the power of the energy shield is, it is impossible to ablate a mecha weighing more than ten tons in such a short period of time. Caught off guard, the booster that was selected as the target directly collided with his former comrade-in-arms. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the zerg-type cyborg who passed through the shield instantly circled behind the target, inserted the sharp blade into the gap in the armor, and repeated a wave of previous operations.

What Layton said was right. This zerg-type modified man was extremely familiar with the machines configured by the Field Corps. In an instant, another machine lost its ability to move and fell to its knees on the ground.

Dozens of spider threads shot out and entwined on these two machines. The Zerg-reformed body suddenly leaned back, and the two heavy machines were lifted up by it like meteor hammers, and smashed into different bodies. Convoy in the distance.

"Be careful!" the commander of the mobile unit shouted hoarsely—because of the paralysis of the second thruster, a hole was torn in the original complete defense line, and the two "Shield Mountain" hadn't had time to fill the gap. The opponent has already smashed the scrapped mecha as a throwing weapon...

With the protective capabilities of these light armored vehicles, if they are hit by these two aircrafts, there is absolutely no possibility for the members of the vehicle to survive. If the ammunition on the aircraft, the vehicle, and the reactor are killed, the damage may be further expanded. .

He seemed to have seen the armored vehicle being smashed and the flames of the explosion soaring into the sky, and he even subconsciously raised his arms to protect his face...

The expected loud noise never came.

"Huh?" He froze for a moment, the distance between the convoy and himself did not exceed 20 meters, shouldn't there be no sound, right?

With such doubts, he lowered his arms and looked up into the sky, only to see that the two thruster mechs that fell were frozen in midair—not only the mechs were frozen, but even the first one The flames burning on the propeller and the rising black mist were also frozen.

The commander couldn't help but widen his eyes—even though he had seen a lot of weird and weird things in the battles with native creatures and heretical sects, this was the first time he saw this scene.

It's as if... the flowing time has come to a standstill on these two bodies.

"Go and deal with other reformers, leave this guy to us." Ke Lan left such a sentence in his ear, and rushed out with Akira Asano, one arm of the former was quickly covered by a scarlet living armor covered, while the latter tightly gripped the hilt of the saber and clamped the scabbard under his arm.

Seeing someone rushing towards him, the zerg-shaped modified man turned around and sprayed a lot of spider silk at the two of them.This time, the amount of spider silk was much more than the previous two shots, and a large web was woven almost instantly, covering Ke Lan and the others like a blanket.

Obviously, the reformer felt a fatal threat from Ke Lan and Asano Akira.

"Akira Asano, come here!"

"it is good."

Asano Akira jumped up from the ground at the same time as he uttered his voice, his body twisted nearly 180 degrees in the air, facing the spider web that was directly above him, the saber suddenly came out of its sheath!

Countless gray knife lights flashed in mid-air, and the big net that was tough enough to capture the mecha was cut into pieces in a blink of an eye.

Without the hindrance of the spider web, Ke Lan rushed directly at the zerg-type modified man, and the bloody claws in his hand suddenly swelled to more than half a meter long, and went straight to the neck of the opponent's body that was not covered by scales.

Just when Ke Lan's claws were about to grab the opponent's neck, the glands on the opponent's back suddenly shot out several strands of spider silk, which stuck to the ground far away, pulling its body back quickly.

This way of displacement made Ke Lan think of an old movie called "Speedman"...

As soon as the shot was missed, Ke Lan didn't chase forward immediately, but pulled out the pistol at his waist with the other hand, and repeatedly pulled the trigger on the open chest and abdomen of the zerg-shaped modified man.

Although the caliber of this pistol is only [-] mm, it is a Gauss pistol. The penetrating power and the kinetic energy attached to the bullet are far greater than the large-caliber hunting pistol that Ke Lan used before. It is easy to shoot a dozen rounds of needle-shaped bullets. He tore apart the scales on the reformed person, and penetrated into its body.

Judging from the position of the shot, the bullet hit the heart almost 100% - of course, the premise is that it still has a human heart, and the position of the heart has not been changed.

In the blink of an eye, the zerg-type modified human was separated from Ke Lan by more than ten meters, but judging from the way it landed, the dozen or so shots that Ke Lan fired at it just now did not seem to cause any serious damage to it .

"The vitality of the worm is really tenacious..." Ke Lan couldn't help complaining in his heart.

Many bugs of the earth variety can survive for several hours after cutting off their heads, and even grow another head... let alone the native bugs on Planet Alpha.This point is in line with the basic cognition in the field of human biology - the simpler and lower the structure of a living body, the stronger its regenerative ability.Fatal wounds for high-level creatures, it is often difficult to kill them quickly.

For example, if an earthworm is cut in half, it will split into two independent individuals instead of dying.

If the head of this zerg-type reformer is cut off...

This thought just flashed through Ke Lan's mind, and he saw a ghostly figure wrapped in a gray knife light, approaching the reformer's side in an instant, and Ke Lan hadn't even caught it yet. In the frame of Akira Asano pulling out the knife and withdrawing the knife, the head of the zerg-type cyborg had already detached from its neck and flew into the air.

"Asano Akira seems to have become much stronger again..." Ke Lan thought to himself, it was already difficult for him to see clearly Asano Akira's moves when the time stop was not activated.Assuming that Akira Asano's attack moves were captured with a super-sensitive camera, to capture the moment when he threw the knife, I'm afraid it would be necessary to subdivide a one-second segment into hundreds of frames.

Akira Asano didn't stop there. After decapitating the enemy, the gray knife light drew a huge cross again, and this cross was deeply wedged into the body of the Zerg-type cyborg... The next second, the very It was difficult to find a few human features, but the body had been broken into four pieces and fell to the ground.

"Okay, so fast knife." Layton said in a daze, "I recorded the battle clip just now, but I didn't see Akira Asano's knife movement even in slow playback."

"Normal, I didn't see clearly." Ke Lan said, "Let's not talk about this, there are still a lot of enemies that have not been resolved..."

He turned his head to look at the battlefield on the other side, and saw that the mobile troops kept pouring firepower on the shield of the modified man, but after bombarding for a long time, the strength of the shield did not show any sign of weakening .
