The Only Player in Infinite Terror

Although he was very curious about Zhang Heng and Ming Yanwei's story, Ling Qi was not in a hurry to gossip. Instead, he asked Zheng Zha to distribute equipment to the newcomers first.

"Zheng Zha, apart from the four newcomers who were mind-controlled, everyone else will receive a set of basic newcomer equipment first."

Ling Qi looked at the last two students, whose eyes were clear and innocent, and smiled gently, "Young men, it's just the two of you left. Hurry up and introduce yourselves, the horror movie plot is about to begin."

Although everyone knew Ling Qi was a man, his smile still stunned the newcomers, especially the two who hadn't even introduced themselves yet.

However, they were very good at distinguishing between what was important and what was urgent, and after only a moment of hesitation, they forced themselves to adjust their mindset.

One of the young men had an ordinary appearance and looked a little older. He was quick-witted and spoke first: "Hello everyone, my name is Li Shuaixi. I just graduated from university and I don't have a job yet."

"However, I prefer watching movies, and I also enjoy reading novels, horror stories, myths and legends, and other miscellaneous books."

"Although all of this sounds incredible, I'm willing to believe that what you're saying is true. I just don't know if I can join your team?"

Although it is unknown why, most of the newcomers who entered this competition were very promising newcomers from the original work, and many of them even entered the Central Continent Team many rounds in advance.

Ling Qi didn't make any definitive statements, but smiled and said, "Personally, I have high hopes for you guys, but after all, we'll be facing dangers together in countless horror movie worlds in the future."

"As the captain, I am responsible for the safety of my teammates, so you can only be considered as reserve members of our Central Continent Team for now."

"This mission in the alien world is the induction test for you new recruits."

"Strive to survive this mission. As long as you can return to the Main God Space alive and perform well or even excellently, I can accept you as official members of the Central Continent Team."

Upon hearing this, Li Shuaixi couldn't help but recall the grotesque and terrifying appearance of the alien and its elusive killing techniques from the movies he had watched.

He instinctively shivered, but soon he banished the fear from his mind and forced himself to calm down. "Okay, Brother Ling, I will definitely try my best... no, I should say, I will definitely do my utmost!"

"Actually, I feel that the most dangerous thing about the aliens is their ability to hide, and secondly, their relatively high level of intelligence."

"But no matter how intelligent they are, they are still just beasts. If it comes to a direct fight, let alone the Gauss guns you gave us, Brother Ling, I suspect that even ordinary firearms from the real world could easily break through their defenses."

"I've seen all of Alien 1 to Alien 4. Apart from the alien species born from the queen in Alien 4, ordinary aliens, even the queen, are actually powerless against firearms."

"The reason why the aliens in the movie were able to go on a killing spree was partly because most of the people they were facing were non-military personnel, and partly because most of the movie scenes were in dark and complex environments, which were suitable for them to launch sneak attacks."

"As long as the sixteen of us don't become as 'idiotic' as the movie characters, I think we should have no problem dealing with this Alien movie using Gauss weapons..."

"Heh, the wisdom of mortals." Chu Xuan pushed up his glasses and interrupted, "I've already analyzed this before, haven't I? The plot of Alien 1 must have undergone huge changes long ago."

"What gave you the illusion that we can easily get through this horror movie?"

Li Shuaixi wasn't angry at being interrupted, but for some reason, the moment he saw the bespectacled man's face, an inexplicable anger ignited in his chest.

"Then what insightful opinion does Colonel Chu have? Do you have absolutely no concept of the power of Gauss weapons?"

Chu Xuan remained expressionless, a glint of white light flashing in his glasses. "It's just a mere Gauss weapon. It's not like I haven't manufactured them in reality before. It's just that with the current industrial base, they have to be made by hand in a laboratory and can't be mass-produced."

"Gauss weapons differ from traditional firearms by using electromagnetic force instead of gunpowder, which can easily accelerate metal projectiles to extremely high speeds and has extremely strong penetrating power while having low recoil."

"Indeed, you're absolutely right. A Gauss weapon that can penetrate 30mm of steel plate can definitely break through defenses and kill the alien."

"But putting aside the senior members, half of us newcomers have never received military training."

"Are you sure you can hit the elusive and agile alien just by picking up your weapons?"

"No matter how powerful a Gauss weapon is, it's useless if you can't hit it, and it might even harm your teammates."

As he spoke, he glanced at the text on his watch again, "Besides, I clearly analyzed it before, didn't I? Although this mission is called Alien 1, the number of aliens we need to eliminate is definitely far greater than in the original movie plot."

"If you're thinking you only need to deal with a few or a dozen aliens, you're being far too optimistic."

Ling Qi watched the two arguing with amusement, munching on sunflower seeds as she watched.

The Great Emperor Shuai west is having a verbal battle with Chu Xuan... Goodness, this is exactly what he wants to see! Bring it up quickly!

Li Shuaixi was dejected, but reason told him that Chu Xuan was right.

Seeing that Emperor Shuai Xi was rendered speechless and had to shut down, Ling Qi, with a rather wicked sense of humor, stepped in to take sides, saying, "What you all said makes a lot of sense, but Comrade Chu Xuan, we have naturally already considered the issue of the newcomers not knowing how to use firearms."

"The nano exoskeleton combat suits we've provided you come with a built-in aiming and locking system that wirelessly connects to your guns. You can think of it as a lock-on cheat in a shooting game."

"Simply pull the trigger, and the gun will automatically aim and lock onto the enemy, allowing even someone who has never received military training to hit the bullseye every time."

"But I must warn you beforehand, don't try to point your guns at us veterans, or your weapons will automatically lock and explode."

"In addition, the T-virus enhancement package and body enhancement drugs we've given you will at least make your physical abilities three to four times that of an ordinary person."

"Therefore, even a civilian who has never received military training, with such strong physical qualities, would perform no worse than a real-life elite soldier, even if he lacks combat experience."

Chu Xuan nodded approvingly and said, "I must say, you have considered everything very thoroughly and made very good preparations. You are a very professional team."
