Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 88 Weaknesses
Ke Lan hurried back, distanced himself from the resurrected Seed of Erosion.

"They've been dead for decades...not dead yet..."

Ke Lan never expected such an accident to happen. In the information left by Alpha Civilization, this was never mentioned.

Even if the Seed of Erosion has strong physical resistance and regeneration ability, after the "nuclear" is destroyed, it will die immediately. This has been confirmed in hundreds of experiments conducted by the Alpha people, and there is no special one. situation happens.

For the Seed of Erosion, the "nucleus" is equivalent to the combination of the heart and the brain, and it is the absolute key part.

Those experiments, of course, also included attempts to pierce the "nucleus" with foreign objects... But in those attempts, even after the piercing object was pulled out, the deadly corroded seeds could not be resurrected... But why this time Different?
Is it because the cells of the Seed of Erosion have undergone secondary mutations after being fused with human genes?But even human genes cannot bring such a powerful vitality to the Seed of Erosion. To say that it is fused with cockroaches on the earth may be more credible.

"It's really fun now..." Ke Lan stared at the wriggling tentacles, frantically thinking about countermeasures... In the absence of the "nemesis" of the flesh-eating worm, with human means alone, How can I kill the Seed of Erosion?
In just a few seconds, the penetrated "core" was wrapped in dozens of tentacles as thick as arms. The surface of these newly-born tentacles was cracked with many openings. These openings were like opening mouths, greedy. They bit and devoured the corpses that had been air-dried for decades... Even the completely withered tentacles on the severed limbs were not spared.

Ke Lan could clearly feel that it was thirsting for food, and it would not let go of any organic matter that could be converted into nutrients... After eating the soldier's remains, the only living thing around was , of course, only Ke Lan is left.

"...Mother sucks."

Seeing that the two tentacles were drawn towards him, Ke Lan rolled on the ground and ducked, then pulled out his spear, aimed at the body of the Seed of Erosion not far away, and pulled the trigger.

"Bah! Bah! Bah!"

The other equipment on his body has long been lost in the deep sea. This large-caliber pistol is the only self-defense weapon on Ke Lan's body. The [-]-inch blaster specially modified by Layton can even be used for indigenous creatures like Xue Long. It caused a lot of threat, but it could hit the tentacles of the Seed of Erosion, and even the outermost layer of the epidermis could not penetrate, let alone hurt the heavily protected "nucleus".

Ke Lan suddenly felt that what the hound said was quite reasonable: "Weapons are the most useful thing on Alpha, and the most useless thing."

Problems that can be solved with weapons are not problems, and in the face of real problems, human conventional weapons are almost useless.

Ke Lan shot at the Seed of Erosion and started to retreat... I just don't know how fast the Seed of Erosion is. If he chooses to escape, can he escape?

Just when he thought so, the Seed of Erosion suddenly jumped up from the ground, jumped out five or six meters, and came to his right side, and several tentacles swept in again.

"Hey... it really doesn't work..."

The way this thing moves is not by running at all, but by using the instant force of its tentacles to bounce. One jump is equivalent to Ke Lan's distance of several steps, and the five or six meters is obviously not its limit. If it wants to go all out But if you do it, I am afraid that the jumping distance can reach 20 meters away.

Can't run, even wearing high-mobility power armor.

Ke Lan could only step back slowly, he didn't even dare to retreat too fast, for fear that the Seed of Corrosion would lose his patience and rush towards him - for Ke Lan, even contact is fatal. If a virus-like cell invades... Even if the erosive seed in front of him gives up his pursuit, he will eventually turn into an identical monster.

That is no different from being killed by the Corrupted Seed.

The Seed of Erosion is still testing, and it will only use two or three tentacles per attack. For Ke Lan, this level of attack can barely be dealt with, but once the testing is over, the Seed of Erosion will have nearly a hundred tentacles all over its body. If the tentacles attacked together, in less than a second, Ke Lan would be stabbed into a bloody human-shaped honeycomb.

With every passing second, Ke Lan is one step closer to death... This is completely different from the situation in the abyss hatchery, where, with the cards in his hand, he still has at least a chance of life... But now, he What's in there?

A pistol that won't damage the Seed of Erosion at all, or even that the magazine is about to empty?

Or the dagger in the boot that makes it difficult to dissect a mummified corpse?

Or this stalagmite in his hand...

and many more?This stalagmite...seems to be a problem...

Ke Lan noticed that the attack of the Seed of Erosion was basically aimed at the right half of his body. Whenever he adjusted his face, the Seed of Erosion would move clockwise around him... At first Ke Lan thought it was because He is holding a gun in his right hand, but after thinking about it, this gun has no threat to the Seed of Erosion at all, and it does not need to use the gun-wielding hand as the primary target of attack...

It is avoiding the stalagmite in its left hand!
This stalagmite has been on the ground for decades, and the eroded seeds have not been resurrected during these decades, and Ke Lan just pulled out the stalagmite, and this thing came to life. This is too obvious!

This stalagmite is absolutely weird!The Seed of Corruption is afraid of it!

Ke Lan immediately raised the stalagmite in his hand and aimed it at the Seed of Erosion. In the next second, the Seed of Erosion actually took a step back, and the dozen or so tentacles were tense and ready to go. Afraid of Ke Lan's appearance.

"No... It's not me that it is afraid of, it's this thing in my hand..."

Ke Lan glanced at the stalagmite in his hand. The stalagmite was light gray in color and rough in texture. It looked like ordinary limestone, and the weight was similar. If there was anything special about it, it was probably only Those scaly patterns on the surface - generally stalagmites are formed by the deposition of calcium carbonate dissolved in water, and the surface patterns are generally in the shape of annual rings. Such row-by-row patterns are really rare.

In other words... Since there are such things as stalagmites, does that mean that there is still a cave on this desert island?
If there are a lot of stalagmites like this in the cave, it's a perfect refuge - just such a stalagmite makes the Seed of Erosion so afraid, if the cave is full, the Seed of Erosion will definitely hide. far.

But the question is... where the hell is this cave?
　In the past few days, my body has been a little uncomfortable. Occasionally, my bones are still a little sore. I don't know if it is a psychological effect or what. All in all, my mentality is also a little anxious. I decided to go to the hospital for a review tomorrow.

　　To be honest, I am really afraid of death. The probability of recurrence is like a time bomb. I don’t know when it will explode. It may be the next second, or it may not explode for a lifetime.

　　In a word, I hope everyone cherishes their own bodies and does not regret it when they fall ill.

　　PS: There will be no change tomorrow, just a blood routine. If there is any abnormality that requires further examination in the hospital, I will send another notice.
