Forbidden Nightmare

Chapter 41 Final Node

Li Nanke ran around the corner of the corridor, and behind him was the rumbling sound of a monster chasing him madly.

Alba, who was hiding at the corner, saw that things were not going well and immediately returned along the same path and ran for his life.

Li Nanke's mind raced, and he did not follow Alba. He ran quickly towards another unfamiliar passage.

The crazy monster behind him was chasing him relentlessly, its huge body almost filling the passage. Dozens of pairs of slender and sharp legs made it extremely fast in a straight line, but when turning, its huge body became an obstacle that slowed down its speed.

Not only that, the remaining half of the monster's head blood spurted out like a fountain, staining the walls and ground of the corridor red, and the gurgling blood gathered into a pool of blood.

The linear laser cannon was extremely powerful. Although it did not kill the Nest Mother immediately, it caused her near-fatal injuries.

What Li Nanke needs to do now is to delay time and let the nest mother's vitality be dissipated and consumed as much as possible in the chase. When it reaches the critical point, it will be the best time to counterattack!
He had memorized the structure of the cabins and corridors around the command room. Even though his straight-line speed was far inferior to that of the monster, he could use the corridors and cabin corners to delay the nest mother and lead her around the command room.

The corner of the corridor only blocked the nest mother for a very short time, but in that instant, Li Nanke ran to the end of the corridor.

He opened the metal gate in front of him and fired a volley of bullets behind him. The rifle bullets repeatedly penetrated the wound on the nest mother's head, causing blood to spurt out of the monster's head and the roar became more deafening.

After entering the cabin, he pressed the button on the door side, closed the metal gate, and immediately ran towards the cabin exit.

After being strengthened by the main substance 'Deep Sea', Li Nanke's physical fitness has been improved in all aspects. His physical strength, nerve reaction speed, running speed and endurance have all surpassed the limits that humans can achieve.

Although this monster, which is a fusion of a large number of deformities, is powerful, it will be chopped down by his chainsaw sooner or later.

With a loud bang, the metal door of the cabin broke into pieces, and the nest mother squeezed into the narrow cabin. Li Nanke had already turned the corner and stepped into the entrance of the next cabin.

The moment the cabin door closed, Li Nanke strode in, but his hair stood on end and his pupils shrank suddenly.

Standing in the cabin was another fusion deformer - the Berserker!
The other party also discovered him at the same time, and pounced towards him with a roar.

There were wolves in front and tigers behind. Li Nanke had no time to think. He rushed forward without stopping and pulled the trigger of the stun rifle.

Instantly, the cluster mode shockwaves hit the Berserker, causing the monster's body to suddenly stiffen and stop.

Li Nanke used the power of his sprint to stomp the ground and leap high into the air...

The sharp blade of the chainsword flashed with a cold light, and the high-speed rotating teeth tore through the flesh and blood, emitting a bloody and cruel scream!
He jumped over the Berserker's head, rolled after landing, stood up without looking back, and continued running towards the corridor outside the cabin.

The berserker's head was split in half, and his gray brain tissue had been turned into a paste. His huge body stood stiff in place, and then fell to the ground with a loud bang.

The nest mother squeezed into the cabin, swept the violent person who was blocking the way aside, and chased after him frantically without caring about anything...

……

The air rushed past his ears as he ran wildly. The floor of the corridor was covered with the blood of monsters. Li Nanke had already run around the command room several times.

He noticed that the monster's pursuit speed behind him had slowed down significantly from before, and he knew that the time had come.

Li Nanke ran to the corner, stopped and took a few deep breaths, then stepped on the ground and kicked the wall of the corridor to gain leverage. He grabbed the pipe above his head like Spider-Man, with his body pressed against the pipe and holding the chainsaw sword tightly in his hand.

Soon, the sound of many feet stomping on the ground in pursuit was getting closer and closer.

The nest mother's huge, thick, long and deformed body squeezed into the corner, and her ugly head covered with laser burn marks appeared in front of us.

"It's now!"

Li Nanke kicked the top pipe hard, and the huge force caused the metal pipe to dent slightly. With the force of the kick, it was like an arrow shot from a bow!
The chainsaw sword let out a piercing scream, and the sharp blade cut out a deadly arc... The sharp teeth cut into the bloody and burnt wound!

Li Nanke roared angrily, the muscles in his arms bulged and knotted, the saw teeth tore through the flesh and blood, and the entire blade of the chainsword sank into the monster's head, and then he chopped it out with the gushing blood and brain tissue!
He fell to the ground and backed away with his chainsword in hand.

The nest mother twisted her body wildly, causing sparks to flash on the walls of the corridor, but soon the twisting turned into convulsions, and finally returned to calm and silence.

A large amount of source energy poured into the 'self' with the death of the nest mother, filling the dried-up pool with mostly clear water.

Li Nanke stood still, calmed his rapid breathing, and then injected all the source energy into the main substance 'deep sea'.

【Main substance: deep sea】

[Level: Level 7 (2%) → Level 9 (87%)]

The strength within the body increased dramatically again, and the nerve reflex speed and the ability of internal organs to withstand pressure became stronger.

He tried to clench his fists and could feel fierce power filling his whole body.

"Unfortunately, there is only a little bit left. The main substance's demand for source energy is too great..."

Li Nanke returned with the chainsaw sword in hand and shouted, "It's safe now, come out."

Not long after, Alba came stealthily from the corner and pretended to be surprised and asked, "Michael, did you kill that monster?"

Li Nanke ignored him and walked straight into the command room.

The metal gate of the main control room behind the command room had been violently damaged and torn into pieces. It seemed to be the work of the Nest Mother.

The main control room was large, with rows of large display screens and operating platforms. It was covered in blood and there was not a single survivor.

The moment Li Nanke stepped into the main control room, a synchronized prompt sounded.

[Nightmare, you have completed key node three! ]

[Node Reward: Trait 'Magnetic Storm' (to be claimed)]

【You have triggered the final node! 】

[Final Node: Take the escape capsule away from the planet Gliese 798c. ]

The function of the space station's escape capsule is similar to that of a life raft on a large ship. The escape capsule does not have the function and power for interstellar travel. It can either only pass through the atmosphere and return to the surface of the planet, or drift alone in outer space waiting for rescue.

Looking at the content of the final node, he said to Alba beside him: "Now it's your turn to work. The main control room must have the space station log and a series of intelligence information."

Alba rubbed his hands together and began to crack the password of the main control room system.

There was a small box on one side of the console, emitting a bright white light in Li Nanke's eyes.

He walked forward and opened the box. Inside was a piece of stone fragment, which seemed to be a small part of the construct, but the patterns and characters on it were dim, and it was somewhat different from the constructs he had seen before.

Reaching out to grasp the fragments, and after enduring the mental erosion, the strange quality called "magnetic storm" was imprinted into the spiritual world.
