The Only Player in Infinite Terror

In the ensuing silence, the Overlord broke the silence by speaking first.

"Indeed... Chu Xuan, your plan is perfect, but please allow me to refuse."

"To abandon comrades who were fighting side by side just a moment ago simply so that one can survive would violate my principles as the Overlord."

"So I'm sorry, Chu Xuan, I cannot obey your order."

Seeing that Ba Wang objected, Luo Gandao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, Chu Xuan, the situation isn't so urgent that we have to abandon them, is it?" Luo Gandao chimed in.

Zhu Wen said from another perspective: "I think we shouldn't give up our precious human resources."

"There aren't many survivors left on this spaceship."

"Once we abandon them, we really won't have any help left."

"Furthermore, I believe that if we can save them all, we should be able to receive some reward."

Cheng Xiao and Wang Xia remained silent. Given their personalities, their silence in supporting Chu Xuan indicated that they did not actually agree with Chu Xuan's plan.

"In that case, you'll need to take some risks."

Chu Xuan's voice remained as indifferent as ever, "Since you're planning to take the risk, then there won't be a single minute of rest."

"Now, you need to set off to evacuate to Sector B15."

"I will have Li Shuaixi and the other two get there in time to meet up with you."

……

"Chu Xuan, I have a new discovery to tell you," Li Shuaixi called out into the microphone.

"Is it about the Xenomorph's chest-breaking body rapidly maturing? I've already discovered that through surveillance." Chu Xuan's tone was calm and composed.

"Not only that, I've discovered that these newly matured aliens seem to be evolving in a targeted manner!"

"They have become much smaller, but faster, and their shells have become thicker."

"We could kill the previous aliens with a single shot using a Gauss rifle, but now it takes at least two shots to the same spot to penetrate their defenses!"

Li Shuaixi was extremely anxious.

At first glance, it seems that the aliens haven't become much stronger.

However, in reality, the required firepower density for an enemy that can be killed with one shot and an enemy that requires at least two shots to kill is far more than just twice as high.

"Don't be too nervous, Zhao Yingkong has already sent over the cyborg head." Chu Xuan pulled a data cable from the cyborg head and connected it to the port on the spaceship's control panel.

"The spaceship will self-destruct in eighteen minutes. Before that, you need to get to the escape pods and evacuate the spaceship aboard the Narcissus."

"Then what are you going to do? Most of the more than three hundred newly matured aliens are gathering on the upper deck of the spaceship," Li Shuaixi said anxiously.

"Someone must stay here to guide you; otherwise, you will have no chance of escaping." Chu Xuan's voice remained as calm as still water.

"Hey, you bastard, did you already plan this from the beginning? Did you never intend to live from the start?" Li Shuaixi asked irritably.

"Who knows? Just take this as my opinion." Chu Xuan pressed the spaceship's self-destruct button expressionlessly.

"Aren't you going to come out and stop me? Or are you confident that you can survive the spaceship's self-destruction? Or is it just my imagination that the spaceship's self-destruction sequence was activated..." Chu Xuan thought to himself.

Just as his finger was about to touch the big red button, Chu Xuan found that he couldn't press it down no matter what he did.

An invisible force completely bound his body, rendering him unable to move.

"Okay, okay, you did it." A familiar voice appeared in his mind.

"Congratulations, Comrade Chu Xuan, you've cleared the game ahead of schedule."

A round of applause rang out, and three figures appeared out of thin air in the central control room.

Captain Dallas fell asleep immediately and temporarily lost consciousness.

At this moment, those memories that had been blocked and forgotten were recalled by Chu Xuan and Zhao Yingkong.

"So that's how it is. They deliberately made us forget about the veterans in order to better achieve the trial's effect..."

Chu Xuan took off his helmet and adjusted his glasses.

Ling Qi smiled and said, "Didn't you already notice something was wrong? You even suspected from the beginning that there might be a veteran among them, right?"

Looking at the surveillance footage, Chu Xuan said calmly, "I have two guesses: one is that a veteran is pretending to be a newcomer and infiltrating our ranks, and the other is that you have mastered hypnotic supernatural abilities."

"You were probably worried that we might be the breeders, right? So you deliberately used the self-destruction of the spaceship to force us to show up and stop you." Ling Qi snapped his fingers.

In an instant, one-fifth of the aliens on the entire spaceship were burned to ashes by the crimson flames.

This seemed to be a signal; the remaining four-fifths of the aliens appeared to be paused, and then lined up in an orderly fashion in the warehouse.

Ling Qi waved his hand, and within a second, all the newcomers were brought to the central command room by his telekinesis.

Everyone felt a blur before their eyes, and they were instantly transported back to the central control room.

Of course, this was not actually teleportation. Rather, Ling Qi used microscopic techniques to open the isolation walls and doors of all the spaceship passages in an instant, and then used telekinesis to pull the newlyweds back from the bottom.

Thanks to this incredible micro-sensory technique, the newlyweds don't even experience the slightest acceleration overload.

Once everyone had arrived, Ling Qi addressed the group, who seemed to have just woken from a dream:

"Given the outstanding performance of the vast majority of you in this mission, I hereby declare your team entry assessment concluded."

"Apart from Zhang Heng, everyone else can directly become a formal member of the Zhongzhou Team."

"As for Zhang Heng... he was rescued a total of three times. Unfortunately, he failed the test and can only become a trainee team member."

"However, considering that he has unlocked the second stage of his gene lock, which is quite promising, all we need to do when we get back is submit one C-level side quest and two thousand reward points."

"He can use the remaining side quests and reward points as he sees fit."

After briefly explaining these points, Ling Qi then presided over the distribution of rewards for killing the aliens.

He had already received his share in advance, so he did not participate in the allocation process.

Currently, there are 408 aliens and dozens of facehugger eggs remaining in the warehouse.

Zheng Zha, Zhang Jie, Zhan Lan, and Erii each took fifty-two of the surviving aliens.

Of the remaining two hundred, everyone except Zhang Heng could take exactly twenty.

Of course, Zhang Heng was also pregnant with a super alien baby...

So even though all the surviving aliens have been killed, the mission is not over yet.

After the super alien baby was removed from Zhang Heng's body via cesarean section, Ling Qi, Zheng Zha, and the other four veterans of the Zhongzhou team, along with the newcomer Chu Xuan, discussed whether to eliminate it directly.
