Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Warhammer Retirement

Chapter 215 Lively and Active Underlying Creatures

Hard and decayed, this was Chu Zihang's first impression of the lower hive capital.

Rusted and corroded steel replaced dirt and rocks, and weeds and spore plants replaced trees and flowers.

All the way from his safe point to here, he saw almost no green, except for spores that glowed blue-green and colored industrial waste.

Now Chu Zihang finally understands why Lu Mingfei likes the scenery of Kassel.

Compared with the surrounding areas of the gathering area, the road they walked was particularly quiet, and there seemed to be no operating equipment nearby.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that gray clams survive here.

It's just that without the cover of noise, the sound of their walking is a bit prominent.

Although under the order of the old one-eyed, the little devils tried to slow down their pace and did not fight.

But the road is so narrow, and there are metal garbage everywhere nearby, so bumps are inevitable.

The old one-eyed man was sullen, listening to the sound of collisions echoing in the passage.

He could only pray that these voices would not spread too far, and would not attract those dangerous lower-level creatures.

For example, humans who are going crazy with hunger.

Chu Zihang watched the old one-eyed gesture of an eagle in front of his chest, his eyes fixed.

The identity of this old one-eyed man was really suspicious.

But it was not the time to ask this, he just kept it in his heart silently.

The clam-digging team moved forward cautiously, and even the slightest sign of trouble made them subconsciously raise their weapons.

Perhaps this will waste a lot of physical strength, but a single negligence may mean attrition or even group destruction.

However, the performance of the old one-eyed man was much calmer. He had already put the laser pistol in the holster and never pulled it out.

But his hands were always on his waist, without any trembling.

"Relax, kids. I chose this path carefully, and it's very safe."

The old one-eyed man said half consolingly and half braggingly.

They have already walked more than half of the distance, and after passing through the small open space in front, they will reach the entrance of the gray mussel production area.

However, when someone triggers a taboo word, it's no surprise that accidents are about to happen.

A black figure folded its fleshy wings, quietly hanging in the shadow of the dome, hiding itself tightly with the help of pipelines and exhaust gas.

Even if someone looked overhead, it would be impossible to spot it without biochemical modification or visual aids.

Its body structure was completely born for the environment of the lower hive city, and the evolution of thousands of years made it a real "shadow killer."

Now, it's about to instill terror in those poor land creatures.

The black shadow adjusted its posture gently, and when the clam-digging team passed below, it moved.

Chu Zihang suddenly felt his hair tighten. He raised his head suddenly, and a bat-like creature landed suddenly. Two huge claws grabbed a boy's shoulders and lifted him up.

"Damn it, it's the Ripper."

The old one-eyed cursed, and instantly pulled out his laser pistol and fired two shots.

His movements were decisive and his shots were precise, lasers piercing the Ripper's fleshy wings.

The Ripper let out a sharp howl, but did not let go of the boy, but increased the flapping of its wings and quickly flew into the air.

It covered its body with the help of the dense steel spider webs in the air, and the old one-eyed shot several times but failed.

The sound of biting and screaming continued, and the old one-eyed man looked livid but helpless.

"damn it!"

He hit his thigh hard.

Tens of seconds later, a mutilated corpse fell down and landed in front of the clam-digging team.

Chu Zihang discovered that it was the screw who threatened him that was attacked.

At this moment, all the blood in his body has been sucked dry, his chest cavity was also torn a big hole by the fangs, and all the internal organs except the intestines were eaten up.

"Scare scare scare!"

The piercing cry came from above, and Chu Zihang could hear a trace of ridicule.

Weak creatures try their best to hide their existence, but powerful predators can show their majesty to their heart's content.

"Keep going."

Old One-Eyed looked gloomy and urged the children.

But when the boys saw the horrible death of their companions, their legs became weak and they moved slowly for a while.

"Hurry up, dilly-dally, do you want to be like him too?"

Old One-Eyed walked up behind them and kicked each of them.

He kicked so hard that the boys grinned, but the pain aroused their desire to survive, and they gritted their teeth and walked forward quickly.

Chu Zihang passed that unlucky guy, who was supposed to have fun at his parents' knees and be a happy child, but turned into a disfigured corpse.

"May your soul return to the Golden Throne."

He whispered a prayer for the screw.

The old one-eyed glanced at him quickly, his eyes complicated and difficult to understand.

Perhaps because they were afraid of the old Cyclops' precise marksmanship, the Rippers didn't attack again until they reached the steel wall.

"Cannon, go and open the door."

Old One-Eyed turned his back on them, raising his gun to the dome.

Cannon was the tallest boy. He groped the wall for a while, and finally found the hidden switch.

Flip the switch, the sound of the machine starting up, and a circular entrance is separated on the wall, which can accommodate an adult to enter.

"You go first."

The old one-eyed man heard the movement behind him and said.

The children entered the entrance obediently and in an orderly manner, and it could be seen that they must have been trained.

"Is everyone in?"

Hearing that there was no movement behind him, the old one-eyed man asked.

"I haven't gone in yet."

Chu Zihang said.

"Why didn't you obey the order?"

The old one-eyed man asked.

"I think you need my help."

Chu Zihang replied.

After a long period of muscle tension, the old one-eyed arm was already trembling slightly.

"Just you?"

He snorted, but still untied the stick from his waist and handed it to Chu Zihang.

"Press that button down there and the stick will pop out. Don't try to trick, you're all going to die without me."

Old One-Eyed warned.

"As long as you have no malice, neither will I."

Chu Zihang said lightly, and took the stick.

"I don't hold any malice in the lower level of the hive capital. Have you spoiled your brain by listening to bedtime stories?"

While mocking, he retreated to the edge of the entrance.

Then old One-Eyed found to his embarrassment that there was no way he could crawl into the entrance with his back to the wall.

The Ripper also seemed to sense Old One-Eyed's plight, and kept moving through the dome until it moved behind a steel pillar closest to them.

"You pretend to crawl in."

Chu Zihang said suddenly.

"and then?"

asked the old one-eyed.

"Then I block its attack, and you take the opportunity to turn around and attack."

He spoke of his plan.

"Stop kidding, boy. The Ripper's claws can move faster than you can blink an eye."

Old One-Eyed scoffed at his plan.

"How do you know if you don't try it, or do you want to stay here and die?"

Chu Zihang asked back.

"of course not."

The old one-eyed man gritted his teeth when he heard Lily calling him from the pipe.

"You win, kid, and I will take a gamble with you. If you lose the bet, we will leave this fucking world together and go meet the other emperor."

"What if you win?"

Chu Zihang asked.

"If we win, it means that the emperor still doesn't want to see us, so we can continue to live on."

The old one-eyed shrugged.

"I mean, should my salary be increased?"

Chu Zihang was indifferent to his performance.

Although the old one-eyed man was somewhat disrespectful to the Emperor's words, considering that this was the lower level of the hive capital, it was very rare for him to continue to believe in the Emperor.

According to Lu Mingfei, the lower level of the hive capital is the base camp of cultists and mutants.

As for why the empire knew the situation of the lower hive capital, but did not carry out vigorous rectification.

Holy Terra itself is a giant hive city, what can the high lord do with other planets?

If the emperor is still alive, after he completes the big plan and frees up his hands, relying on his authority and Malcador's ability in government affairs, he will naturally be able to gradually improve the living environment of all mankind.

But the Lord of Men has sat on the Golden Throne, and the man in charge of the empire's affairs has changed from Malcador the Immortal to the High Lord Mortal.

It is already a miracle that the human empire can still maintain its rule over the territory.

"You're really going to take advantage of the fire, go on."

While complaining, the old one-eyed took out two packs of nutrition packs from his pocket and threw them to Chu Zihang.

He bit off a piece and chewed dryly in his mouth. The poor taste made him frown, but his spirit became clearer.

"Are you ready?"

asked the old one-eyed.

"All right,"

Chu Zihang put the rest of the nutrition pack into his arms, holding the stick with both hands.

The old one-eyed took a deep breath and turned around slowly, but the Ripper didn't jump down.

"Cunning beast."

He spat, the predators in the lower layers of the hive are all very smart, and some of them have an IQ no lower than that of humans.

There was no other way, so the old one-eyed had no choice but to grasp the edge of the entrance with both hands, and got in with the help of the boys.

Just when he exposed half of his butt outside, the Ripper finally moved.

The powerful muscle group agitated the patagium, and it took less than a second to cover a distance of more than [-] meters and came to the entrance.

The claws with metallic luster grabbed the old one-eyed buttocks, with its power, it only took one stroke to pierce his lower body.

As for the little thing next to it, it poses no threat to it.

It already had a preliminary impression of thermal weapons, and knew that the stick would not be able to shoot out scalding light and hard balls.

Just when his claws were about to touch the buttocks of the old one-eyed man, Chu Zihang rushed forward fiercely,
The short stick in his hand instantly turned into a pointed spear, and with the momentum, he stabbed viciously at the relatively soft abdomen of the Ripper.

"grumble!"

The Ripper let out a scream, and red and black blood flowed from its abdomen.

It slapped away the pointed spear with one paw, vigorously flapped its wings, and subconsciously wanted to escape, but three fiery rays shot out from the tunnel, piercing through its heart.

"send!"

With a final wail, the Ripper fell to the ground.

Chu Zihang continued to shoot the spear without hesitation, and did not stop until all the brain tissue of the tearer was poked out.

The effect of a large amount of hormone secretion faded, and only then did he feel the sharp pain from his wrist.

It turned out that his muscles had been injured by the claws of the Ripper.

Chu Zihang involuntarily let go of the spear, and let it hit the ground.

"Nice job, boy. Pity."

The old one-eyed man crawled out of the passage again, picked up the sharp spear from the ground, and aimed the gun at Chu Zihang's heart.
