Chapter 169 (1/2)
”We have no choice but to escape. This chamber has not left us any space to fight from the beginning. As long as we face those monsters, we have no possibility of survival.” Xing Yan simply judged the current situation and made a preliminary assessment of their team's situation.
”But the map is in Wang Yue's hands. This place is so big that I can't even tell the southeast and the northwest.” John said dejectedly that it was a great blow to him that he could not use magic power. John always liked to rely on magic to distinguish direction. He believed that the wonderful spirits in nature would show him the way.
”Just go down. I've looked at the map twice. Although the space is very large, the pattern is not much different. First of all, we need to find the elevator leading to the next floor.”
Xing Yan said calmly, and he could not show his panic. He is the leader of a team. If even the leader is flustered, the team will not be far away from extinction.
”Then we don't care about Wang Yue?” John got nervous and said.
Xing Yan took a look at John. ”Don't worry. If the boy wants to escape, he is definitely the fastest one among us. With his investigative ability, we should let him come to us rather than let us go to him.”
”Yes, too.” John agreed, but suddenly something came to his mind. He asked the captain, ”what about the child Well, I mean our new players. ”
Xing Yan didn't answer for a while. He was silent for a moment. Frowning, deliberating: ”don't worry, that child is very strong, should be among us most likely to survive.”
Jiang Li suddenly broke in: ”Captain, I want to know one thing, while there is still time...”
”What's the matter?”
”That kid, Captain, do you really trust him?” Jiang Li's voice under the mask was very low. ”According to the previous regulations, every new member of our team must be monitored and inspected for a certain period of time, so that we can completely trust. I was the same when I joined the ghost team, but the captain broke the rules this time, which makes me very puzzled.”
After listening to Jiang Li's words, Xing Yan seems to have thought of something. His face looks cold in the dark blue light. Then he answers Jiang Li: ”in fact, I don't understand.”
Jiang Li doubts: ”what?”
Xing Yan seemed helpless to shake his head. He said to Jiang Li and John, ”have you ever felt this way? On one day, you meet a stranger who has never appeared in your memory. However, you have a very good impression on him and want to protect or even rely on him... ”
Before Xing Yan finished speaking, Jiang Li said, ”is it difficult Captain, are you
”I know it's puzzling, and I think so myself.” Xing Yan's face became darker. He continued, ”I even doubt that the child used any means to control me, but this kind of doubt As long as he stands in front of me, it disappears, and I feel like my emotions are out of control. ”
”Isn't that dangerous?” John immediately exclaimed, ”I knew that child was not a good thing! They are all little demons in the shell of angels! And he scares me with worms
Jiang Li speechless looked at John, ”come on, it's just that you are afraid of insects.”
”Listen, gentlemen.” Xing Yan said calmly, ”you don't need to trust the child. I have a hunch that he won't stay in the team for long. I don't feel any hostility from him. So to some extent, we can use him.”
On the other side, Luo Jian and Wang Yue still follow the aliens on the road to the control room. They were all ordered by aliens to wear something like a gas mask, because alien noan told them --
”those monsters will spread pestilence and unknown viruses. There's a green insect, about the size of a palm, like a parasite, that crawls on you and releases toxins that keep you immobile. If necessary, they scratch your skin, hatch the larvae in your body, and then you become a nest, and you're eaten alive from the inside. ”
Noen explained, adding by the way, ”that's how many of my companions died.”
”It's terrible. Are there any other types of insects?” Wang Yueguang is listening to the narratives of noan, they all feel creepy.
”There are many, different kinds, but I don't know exactly.” ”With our technology level and combat level at that time, the spacecraft was still occupied by those insects in less than 24 hours. Although there were a lot of unexpected elements, we did not have effective means to deal with those insects now,” said Noen
”No survivors but you?” Asked Luo Jian.
”I don't know. At the critical moment, I escaped to the freezer in the sleeping room and frozen myself. Maybe because of the freezing, I lost my life signs, so the insects ignored me.”
”Wait, you mean, those monsters will look for us through our signs of life?””Of course, there seems to be scouts among the insects. They are well organized, like an army. I believe one of them can control the whole swarm, which is similar to the Queen's peak.”
”And the queen will lay a lot of eggs.” Luo Jian touched her chin and thought, ”then these insects will go to find a large space for the larvae to hatch, and they will find some worker bees to take care of them.”
”That makes sense.” Noan seemed to be mentioned by Luo Jian, and he also tilted his head to think, ”big space The biggest space on our spaceship is the bottom dock
”Because it's a place to dock all kinds of small ships and escape ships, when it's not opened, the dock is completely sealed. It's protected by doors and walls made of thick materials. It's also the safest place for the space station to be attacked.”
Wang Yue heard here also understand what, pain unbearable said: ”God! That's the most unfortunate news I've ever heard. It means that if we want to find an escape boat and escape from this space station, we'll have to drill into the insect nest, right? ”
”Yes, that's what it means,” said Noen
Luo Jian said: ”I have already imagined that the ship's cabin is full of insect eggs What if the escape boat is filled with eggs? ”
”Don't worry, some small special purpose escape boats need permission to open. The outer wall is a seam free automatic defense energy cover. Without instructions, the door of the escape boat can't be opened in any way, so there's no need to worry about the insects stuffing the eggs into the escape boat.”
”Do you have the right to escape boats?” Luo Jian asked a key question.
