Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 67 Incendiary Bombs

"Aki Asano! Back off!"

Ke Lan shouted loudly, and at the same time took out a grenade with a red shell from his body and threw it towards the black skeleton.

This is a specially-made small incendiary bomb. Ever since the cleft worm swarm was encountered in the last ruins, this thing has become the standard equipment for Ke Lan and others.

"boom!!"

The incendiary bomb exploded as soon as it hit the black skeleton, and a large amount of viscous oily substance firmly adhered to the surface of the skeleton and burned violently!

The filler in the bomb is a mixture of white phosphorus, magnesium heating agent and modified rocket propellant fuel, which can release a high temperature of more than a thousand degrees when burning. Not only that, this kind of incendiary bomb is also effective in water. With just one, more than ten tons of seawater can be heated to boiling.

The flaming black skeleton is like a ghost that climbed up from purgatory in a horror movie. It has a very strong visual impact, especially the half-pulled skeleton wrapped in flames, which made Ke Lan think of the horse A ghost rider riding a motorcycle and wielding a chain.

It was an old movie shot in the old era. The video file was found by Ke Lan in a scrapped antique hard drive. He originally just wanted to study the hardware structure of the old computer, but he did not expect to harvest hundreds of movies from the old era. pirated movies...

The video file is seriously damaged, but with today's data recovery technology, it is not difficult to repair, and the first movie to be repaired is "Ghost Rider" from Columbia Pictures.

After watching this movie in Ke Lan, he had a bad taste in his heart that he wanted to use a fire extinguisher to wash the Ghost Rider's head. Now, this idea can finally be achieved in reality——

After releasing the safety lock and turning the flow regulating valve to the maximum level, Ke Lan threw the cooling tank in his other hand.

The liquid nitrogen in the cooling tank spilled out and just fell on the burning black skeleton!
"laugh--"

Immediately, a large white mist filled the air, and the temperature of the air, which had been rising continuously because of the incendiary bombs, dropped below zero in just a few seconds, and even the steel plate on the ground was covered with a thin layer of white. Frost.

Although the emergency cooling tank of the power armor is filled with liquid nitrogen, the use of this liquid nitrogen is not directly sprayed on the overheated parts, but is used to cool the coolant in the copper pipe, and then use the coolant to cool the coolant. Absorb the heat from those overheating components...

If the liquid nitrogen is directly in contact with the hot metal, the violent thermal expansion and contraction will cause the metal to embrittle and crack, which is like amplifying the effectiveness of the conventional quenching process hundreds of times. Only a few top materials can endure this torture.

At the same time, Ke Lan raised the gun in his hand and fired two shots at the induction siren on the ceiling.

He didn't want the entire icebreaker to watch this scene.

"Back! Back all! Get out of the white fog!" Ke Lan shouted to the other people as he stepped back—the vision in the white fog is extremely limited, if this move can't solve the black skeleton , this white fog will instead provide an excellent ambush field for the opponent.

"Did, kill it?" Caroline looked at Ke Lan, who was the last to withdraw from the white mist. Everything she discovered just now was too sudden, and she didn't even react.

"I'm not sure." Ke Lan shook his head. "The blade that can be made of Nino alloy is hard to beat... The material strength of that skeleton is definitely not low. I can't guarantee that this method will be effective."

"Anyway, until the white fog dissipates, you still have to remain vigilant." Ke Lan stepped back behind Asano Akira, his body was much weaker than Nino alloy.

After about ten minutes, the white fog in the cargo hold finally dissipated. I saw that the skeleton lay motionless on the ground, the spine and humerus were covered with fine cracks, and the ribs were even more broken. Got messed up.

Ke Lan picked up a small stone beside his feet and threw it. The stone hit the skeleton and bounced to the ground.

The black skeleton remained motionless.

"Is it 'dead'?" Liao Zilang wanted to put away the folding shield, but Ke Lan raised his hand to stop it: "Don't be careless, maybe this thing is pretending to be dead."

Thinking of the previous ambush, Ke Lan didn't dare to take it lightly at this time. The weapons in the hands of the four people were all aimed at the black skeleton, and they approached step by step.

Nothing happened until Asano Akira picked up the black skeleton with the tip of the knife.

"There seems to be something in this skeleton..." said the sharp-eyed Liao Zilang.

"Is it bone marrow?" Caroline couldn't help but leaned closer.

"It's not like that." Ke Lan shook his head, picked a hand-worthy stone from the pile of stones on the side, aimed it at a vertebra of the black skeleton, and smashed it hard!
"Crack!"

The cracked bones were very fragile. With just one click, many bone fragments were knocked out. Ke Lan repaired a few more times, and soon a hole with a diameter of about one centimeter was smashed in this vertebra.

"Turn the lights on."

An extremely bright white light shot from the shoulder of the power armor and shone on this vertebra.

I saw that the place that was supposed to be the spinal cord was filled with a pale white translucent substance, and through the surface of this thing, something similar to organ tissue could be vaguely seen.

"Like a slug..." Caroline whispered, "Is this what it is?"

Slugs, scientific name slugs, are hermaphroditic mollusks, classified as gastropods, stalks, and are extremely common on the earth in the old era... But on the ark, only a very small number of mollusks are still preserved in the biological laboratory. Living samples... Compared with the cockroaches that can survive on the surface of Alpha star for a long time, the environmental adaptability of this creature is much weaker, as long as a little high-concentration salt solution is enough to dehydrate it and die.

"Although it looks like a slug, this is definitely a native creature of Alpha," Ke Lan pursed his lips, "It should be this thing that drives the black skeleton."

"Indeed, the speed is too fast, but... how did it escape the screening of the security bureau?" Caroline said, "No matter what I think, I can't think of how this thing would appear here. "

"I'm afraid the people from the Security Bureau can't explain this issue." Ke Lan spread his hands and said, "But the question now is how to deal with this thing... We can't hand it over to the Security Bureau, right?"

"That's not good! If the security bureau knows that we have opened the No. [-] cargo hold, even the captain will be in trouble." Caroline shook her head repeatedly.
