Returning from the abyss

Chapter 543 Behind the Door
B-rank Eudemons are not creatures that can be defeated by cutting off limbs.

Even with Lu Ning's order, it is still inevitable that someone will be rubbed by irregular flame lasers. The spacesuit cannot block this kind of attack, including the empty valley that cannot be completely avoided and the clarinet that flashed in the wrong direction.

"Hiss—" Kong Gu let out a cry of pain. His right forearm was burnt, and his skin instantly turned black. Fortunately, it wasn't in the middle, but the surface was burnt.It was the same thing with Clarinet, the laser went through at an underarm angle, a large piece of the space suit was burned, and she drove the steel ax into the ground and slammed on the brakes to avoid directly hitting the laser.

When everyone was hindered by the laser light, a flame-shaped sickle had been extended from the two broken legs of the gatekeeper. out of its side.

They are somewhat similar to the cyan lizards that Lu Ning has seen before, but they are bigger and stronger.Their scales have clearly transformed from black-red rock-like to frost-like rock-like. Compared with the two B-rank Eudemons, their mutation speed is faster!

"Captain, you must kill those two lizards with one blow!" Yang Hao shouted, "They can evolve independently, remember those eggs that were found at the outpost? Soon they will get stronger!"

"It's not so easy to kill two Cs under the attack of a B-level phantom beast!" Lu Ning shouted, "Qiu Shu! Drone support!"

The flame spray just now did not have too much environmental influence, but because the high temperature and low temperature intertwined again made the fog thicker, the phantom beasts did not notice at all that the three bombing drones with tundra condensate containers mounted below them had passed away. Slowly floated to the top of the head.

Immediately afterwards, two laser drones quickly flew out from behind the rock where Qiu Shu was hiding, and the intersecting laser beams strangled towards the gatekeeper. At the same time, Lu Ning gathered a material distortion bomb in his palm, It hit the gatekeeper's chest silently.

Unexpectedly, the two lizards took the initiative to meet them, one jumped at the laser drone in the air, and the other opened its mouth wide to swallow the material distortion bomb in one gulp!
Blood splattered, a lizard pounced on a drone, but itself was cut by the laser beam, and its entire body was broken into several sections.And the other one began to twist and twist at a certain point in its body, and the strong squeeze forced out the bones and flesh from under the scales. The scene was horrible.

"Did you just die like this?" Spade was stunned for a moment.At this time, the B-rank Eudemons naturally understood the power of the laser, and avoided the attack of another drone, but three freezing bombs in the sky quietly smashed into its head.

The cold enough to freeze this area was released from the top of the gatekeeper's head, and the burning mane went out in an instant. The gatekeeper just raised his head in astonishment, and the intense cold had already penetrated its whole body, tearing its feet and The tail froze to the ground, turning into a colored ice sculpture.

"It's a bit...simple." Mo Lianren frowned, turned his head suddenly, and blocked a shot with his epee, but the black flames quickly fused the blade, and Mo Lianren was also blown away by the momentum. Going out, it landed five or six meters away.

"Poor man!"

"team leader!"

Everyone looked at the cliff in the direction of the attack. The person who opened the door had stood up again, and the hand cannon was aimed at the bottom.

"Ha, one melee and one long-range, it's a scientific cooperation, isn't it?" Qiu Shu's voice was also a little nervous, "There are not many drones left, captain, we didn't prepare so many bombs."

"Cough, cough... that guy is really not simple." Mo Lianren slowly got up, "Baihu, how are you doing?"

"I hid under the cliff and shot at blind spots." The white fox replied.

"Condescending, suppressing firepower, this is not easy to handle..."

Lu Ning was wondering here, the person who opened the door didn't seem to be in a hurry to attack. It stands to reason that its two hand cannons can of course carry out the attack burst just now. Even if it can't achieve the purpose of surprise attack again, it can still suppress firepower. But the opener is now just taking a serious-looking aim.

What is it waiting for?
A-level Eudemons are intelligent and can talk, so does B-level have some similar intelligence?It... is it delaying time?
Before Lu Ning could understand the intention of the person who opened the door, Qingniao sniped at him again.It's just that this time it didn't have the same effect as the first shot. The door opener was obviously prepared for this, and burned the bullet in midair with a backhand shot.

"Damn guy..." Blue Bird glared at the door opener on the cliff, took off a new bullet box from behind, took out a bullet with a slightly complicated structure from it, and pressed it into the barrel of the gun.

Positron-bound bombs, today, the annihilation reaction is still one of the most lethal methods known to people, the weapon is still uncontrollable, and it will still indiscriminately kill everything within the range, of course, this range is beyond the bullet. The number of bound positrons is still controllable.

"Blue Bird, that will destroy the door." Tie Mei said in a low voice, "If the door is very close to the person who opened it, this shot may even destroy the door, and we may have to find the next pair of monsters."

"We should have used this kind of destructive attack from the very beginning to attack the above." Blue Bird replied, "Captain, if we use ordinary weapons, our firepower will be completely suppressed. At this moment, no one can go around except Baihu , but the white fox is also injured, even if she is fine, it is impossible for her to face a B-rank phantom beast head-on."

"I know, but please shoot down the cliff." Lu Ning said.

"Oh?" The blue bird froze for a moment.

"The door opener needs to watch us, so stand close to the edge of the cliff, we're not trying to knock it down, we're knocking the whole cliff down."

"That's a good idea." Spade was delighted, "We'll take a sniper cover to create some threat to its body. It won't care about a 'missed' bullet."

"That's right, everyone, cover with firepower." Lu Ning squinted her eyes, gathered the most basic shock bomb in her palm, aimed at the person who opened the door on the cliff, and blasted towards him. At the same time, gunshots rang out in her ears Voice.The door opener who noticed the attack immediately swung the hand cannon, and it was indeed possible to launch a burst of attacks.The black flame accurately knocked out some of the attacks that were directly aimed at him, while some of the side bullets were directly dodged by it.

The positron-binding bullet caught in these bullets didn't make any deafening special sound, and the bullet with a slightly lower flight trajectory was completely ignored by the door opener, who didn't know the power of this bullet, so——

The white light exploded, and pure energy bloomed at the bottom of the cliff. Even the volcanic rock couldn't bear the impact of this energy at all. It split instantly, and the light even penetrated to the feet of the person who opened the door. It just realized it, but still didn't understand what happened. What, when the foot is unstable, it will fall down with the cliff, and at the same time, the fire door behind and a large pile of stones will fall together.

"It's done!" Spade was overjoyed, but saw a burst of black and white flames burst out from the falling rocks, knocking out all the fragments of the surrounding cliffs, and at the same time, some of them hit the ground below. It broke the storm and slowed down the falling speed of the person who opened the door, allowing it to land directly in a stable posture, and the rock with the fire door fell behind it.

"This guy is the gatekeeper, right? After all this, he can still stop the Fire Gate?" The corner of Spade's mouth twitched, "Captain! It has already landed! At least there is no commanding height!"

"Don't leave the bunker yet." Lu Ning continued to observe the direction of the person who opened the door through the feedback signal of the detector, and the sudden change did not affect its action of still standing at the door, maintaining a state of vigilance.It was indeed waiting for something, but Lu Ning felt that he probably couldn't understand the thinking of the phantom beast.

"Don't be stingy with ammo, shoot, reduce its power first, and then use high-powered weapons to solve it all at once."

Everyone responded, and immediately used rocks to move and fight.Clarinet and Kong Gu took this opportunity to step back and let Spider Silk treat the wound.

The person who opened the door was still able to deal with the attacks from all directions with ease. Spade tried to get close to the corner, but a stone he was hiding was immediately smashed by the hand cannon. Seeing this scene, everyone was sure that the person who opened the door did not want people to approach the door , but now everyone can see the fire door clearly, it is two burning pillars of fire standing on a rock, the size of which only one person can pass through, and I don't know what's special about it.

"Qingniao, load it." At this moment, Lu Ning cut into the private channel, Qingniao was stunned for a moment, and then pressed another positron binding bomb.

"Captain, do you have a way to deal with it?"

"Since it knows that it is preventing others from approaching the fire door, it is easy to handle. If someone does touch the door, then it will definitely panic, at least its attention will be diverted immediately - seize that moment and shoot."

"But, but no one can enter its defense range."

"The white fox is here."

The blue bird instantly understood Lu Ning's intentions, and turned its gaze back to the position of the person who opened the door. It was standing in front of the door, surrounded by piles of rocks caused by the fall of the cliff, and the fire door was standing crookedly behind, but the surrounding gravel was not there. At least, the white fox said just now that she was hiding under the cliff...

"She can move, and the defensive performance of the space suit is more than enough to block the impact of these crushed stones. Since she can hide under the cliff from the gatekeeper's attack, she can also use the opportunity I created to touch the fire door. "

Just as Lu Ning had determined, when everyone was unable to attack for a long time and was a little tired, a hand suddenly protruded from the chaotic rocks and grabbed the edge of the rock where the fire gate was located.

As if there was a sense, the person who opened the door turned around immediately, and immediately aimed at the white fox with a two-handed cannon, but it hesitated, because the white fox was right behind the door, if it fired, it would smash the door together.

"turn out to be……"

The voice of the white fox was covered by the voice of the blue bird: "White fox, stay away! Shoot the annihilation bomb!"

The well-behaved blue bird did not shoot directly at the door opener, but fired at a position about five meters away from it, trying to keep the range of energy release away from the white fox.The person who opened the door did not see this shot, and it did not fire at the person behind the door until the moment it was covered by light.

it is finally over.

Positronic bound ammunition is also a weapon that is difficult to make. The team brought three each of the bayonet, blue bird and spade. Now it takes two rounds to kill a small B-level phantom beast, so I can only say no. Lose or lose.

Everyone came out and walked towards the place washed by the light. The freezing air quickly dissipated the high heat, and the release of pure energy from the annihilation reaction would not leave any harmful substances. Only the white fox rolled several meters away before avoiding it. range of light.

"White Fox, how are you?" Mo Lianren came over while pressing her ribs that were still hurting, and pulled her up.

"Almost died." Baihu got up, and everyone saw that her helmet had already been cut with two cracks, and the space suit also had the same cut, which was left by the previous gatekeeper's attack.And this also made her look disheartened now, so she simply took off the helmet. Anyway, the air here was a lot cleaner in the light rain.

"Captain Lu Ning, I think you'd better discuss it a little bit when you make others work hard in the future."

"Do you really think it's a good idea to discuss it? I suppose you saw something behind the door too."

Although the Huomen was affected, it didn't seem to have suffered much damage.There are no solid pillars in it, just pure flames, maybe that's the only reason.The white fox walked over slowly, stared at the rocks on the ground, shrugged: "Okay, it's gone."

"What did you see?" Yang Hao asked.

"Those stones are actually eggs. They are the ones that fell with the fire door. When I hid behind the door, some eggs had already begun to hatch and showed some characteristics. Including firing lasers from the inside, and twisting the surrounding The stone, of course, is not very strong."

That's how the two lizards died just now.

"That's not good news." Yanghao raised his voice.

"What? We have long known that it has the function of evolution, and the cause of death before replication can also be classified into this category." Spider Silk said.

"Look at this." Yanghao squatted down, picked up a few pieces of dark stones from the smaller gravel, and formed an arc-shaped shell.

"Has hatched already?" Spade was startled.

"They are called primitive eggs, and they will change with the environment, but the most important reason is that they are responsible for carrying these favorable evolutionary genetic information." Yanghao threw away the fragments and clapped his hands, "These lizards should be everywhere. They all have different species, and evolve through the induction of the same race. Captain, do you know why even some E-class races in the outpost forest have the ability to resist detection?"

"...inherited genes?"

"I made a comparison between the specimens you brought back and the original eggs we obtained at the outpost, and found that some of the gene sequences were completely identical. I'm not sure if this was achieved through eating or some other method, But the conclusion is already obvious—these...creatures that can become primitive lizards are responsible for carrying the evolutionary signal to every corner of the phantom star."

Yang Hao stood up.

"And the evolutionary signals they carry not only include 'newly acquired favorable evolution', but also include the stimulus source of 'releasing evolutionary signals to the same species'."
