No, you must not be eaten by that monster!

Chapter 18: Alien

The moment the gunshots rang out, countless pale yellow flowers appeared on the alien's chest. The bullets could not penetrate its exoskeleton and could only barely crack it, but a few bullets hit its smooth skull and bounced off.

The alien couldn't change direction while flying in the air, and could only let the bullets pour down on it. In a flash, the gunshots had just rang out, and the alien had already pounced in front of Beiyuan Kong, and its sharp front claws suddenly stabbed towards his chest!

But Beiyuan Kong's reaction was also not bad. He did not retreat or dodge, but rushed forward!

As the alien approached, the AK disappeared from his hand. When its front paws approached his chest, he twisted his body to narrowly avoid it and inserted the dagger forcefully into the gap of its cracked exoskeleton.

Using the inertia of his body to apply force to the point where the dagger was embedded, he flipped over and jumped behind it, but he did not let go of the dagger in his hand. He dragged the handle and wanted to cut it from the chest to the side of the waist.

But this is just a tentative attack. Although the defense of ordinary aliens is not as abnormal as that of Tank, how can an ordinary dagger cause much damage to it if its defense is completely broken by bullets?

So, judging from the feel of the hilt, the knife only cut a one or two centimeter cut at most. Then Bei Yuankong suddenly retracted his arm, pulled out the dagger as if he had used too much force, and threw it away without thinking. Sure enough, the blade did not break directly, but was corroded in that instant!

Then Beiyuan Kong suddenly kicked his legs, stepped on the alien's back and jumped onto the stone statues on both sides of the passage. At this moment, the alien fully demonstrated its agility. Before Beiyuan Kong's feet could stand firmly, the slender tail swung over like a bone whip. The huge force brought with it a whistling wind and swept the more than three-meter-high iron-blooded stone statue in half!

As the prey lost its balance in the air, the alien's body had already jumped into the air and pounced on it. The angle and timing were perfect. If nothing unexpected happened, the prey would be caught in the alien's mouth before it hit the ground!

But the two figures in the air shifted at the moment when they were about to intersect. There was a sound of a string like thunder, and the alien's body in the air seemed to be gently pushed by something. A black arrow with a metallic luster, with the sound of breaking through the air and a swirling air wave, nailed its chest!

Normally, this powerful arrow could tear a big hole in the rhino's head, and the spinning arrowhead could instantly turn its brain tissue into a paste. However, for a fantasy creature like the alien, it could only barely break through its defense, and that was on the premise that the arrow accurately shot into the crack of its exoskeleton. Even so, the arrowhead was only shallowly embedded in its epidermis!

It was this subtle change that caused the angle of its pounce to shift, and it could only watch the prey pass by its eyes. But in those few milliseconds, its ferocious mouth opened wide and its retractable mouthparts suddenly shot out, but the distance was stuck at that position, with the mouthparts only one or two centimeters away from the prey's nose. As it opened and closed unwillingly, a fishy smell rushed into Bei Yuankong's nasal cavity.

Bei Yuankong, who narrowly avoided the fatal attack, had no time to breathe a sigh of relief. He only felt a pain in his shoulder. Its flexible tail swung over and the stinger pierced through his shoulder, tearing his winter clothes and causing blood to slowly flow out.

The aliens are indeed the top hunters. Their fighting and adaptability abilities are almost ingrained in their bones. They will not miss any opportunity to hunt and can perfectly use any part of their bodies to attack. Even if they lose their balance in mid-air, their tail stingers can almost pierce their prey!

A second later, two dull sounds of heavy objects falling were heard, and Beiyuan Kong and the alien fell to the ground at the same time. However, Beiyuan Kong fell almost vertically, while the alien slid seven or eight meters on the ground due to inertia! It had adjusted the angle of its body before landing, and landed on its stomach.

Its tail and limbs were stuck firmly on the stone slab the moment it landed on the ground, using the resistance to prevent itself from getting too far away from its prey. It plowed five deep marks on the ground!

Before its body came to a complete stop, the alien let out a hoarse roar, ready to pounce on its prey. It ignored the arrow stuck in its chest. The scraping-like injury was almost painless to it, and it didn't even pull out the arrow from its chest!

But Kitahara Sora had already adjusted his body balance in the air. The moment he landed, he suddenly exerted force with his legs and bounced up immediately, doing a graceful backflip. While in the air, he felt the boiling blood again, as if the blood in his body was violently agitated, and the energy in his body seemed to be out of control and wanted to break through the cage.

This state is like when you had just had a fight with someone in elementary school, and then when the bell rang, you suddenly calmed down and held the pen, and then you found that the hand holding the pen was shaking because your body was in a state of extreme excitement.

Although he was restless inside, Kitahara Sora looked extremely calm.

Bei Yuankong calmly stared at the alien thirty meters away. His deep red pupils glowed with a faint blood light in the dark environment. He stood in the standard way of holding a bow and pulling the string.

The black bow in his hand was already in full moon state, and the sharp arrow was steadily placed on the tiger's mouth. The bow body made a low sound of ancient wood breaking due to the huge force of pulling, as if the bow was gathering energy at a steady speed, and when the force reached the critical point, it would burst out with destructive power.

The power of this bow must exceed that of ordinary firearms. My strength is about twice that of an adult healthy male. It is very difficult to pull it fully, and I must open 15% of the brain utilization. Under normal circumstances, Beiyuan Kong will definitely not be able to pull it fully, so if this arrow hits the target, it will definitely severely damage the alien.

The alien is a living creature, perhaps with a certain level of intelligence, perhaps extremely high intelligence. When it saw this scene, it did not stop dodging, but instead pounced towards Bei Yuankong at an even faster speed. It instinctively felt the danger, but it would not escape. This creature may not have fear, at least in the movies, no alien has ever been seen running away!

It felt threatened, so it would definitely take corresponding measures. It would definitely not let Beiyuan Kong shoot the arrow. There was hardly any eye contact between them before the alien's body moved.

Beiyuan Kong still pulled the bowstring tightly, looking at the alien who was already on all fours on the ground and was not in a hurry to shoot the arrow. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. If the alien could understand the emotional fluctuations of humans, then it would definitely see a strange expression on Beiyuan Kong's face, that is, disdain.

It rushed over, and it took only about a second to run up to about ten meters to increase its speed, and then it soared directly into the air.

'Bang~'

Beiyuan Kong opened his lips slightly and made some onomatopoeia...

There was a loud bang, and the alien fell to the ground. A violent explosion broke out from its chest, opening the bone armor on its chest. Milky yellow acid and flesh flew along with broken bones. It struggled violently on the ground, making a hissing sound similar to that of a snake, but it straightened its body in less than two seconds. At this time, Beiyuan Kong had already distanced himself again, and the distance between them was about 30 meters!

In fact, the grenade just now did not cause any substantial damage to the alien because its outer armor was in perfect condition, and the grenade's killing power mainly relied on shock waves and fragments. It was understandable that it could not break through the strong defense of this creature. The most important thing was that at the moment the grenade was thrown, Kitahara Kong saw it instantly shrink its body at that moment, and the grenade exploded on its skull.

But this explosion caused it to suffer a lot of damage, because Beiyuankong used AK to crack the bones in its chest, and then nailed the arrow on it. That's right, the arrow shot in the air just now used a high-tech explosive arrow, and it only needed to get the arrowhead stuck in the bone armor!

When the arrow hits the target, the side blade of the arrow will pop out and fix the target object. Within the next two seconds, the explosive in the center of the arrow will be activated, causing a violent explosion inside the target body!

So this is just a preparation to kill him! If you want to cause damage to it, you must break its defense. When it has a weakness, then there is a breakthrough.

The power of the arrow explosion was no less than that of a grenade. The bone armor on its chest was completely broken, revealing the disgusting yellowish muscle tissue, and the acidic blood dripped onto the ground with a sizzling sound. But the alien still did not fall down. The injury on its chest only made it more angry, but did not cause it a fatal injury.

So, it’s worth spending 100 points, isn’t it?

Beiyuan Kong gently spread out the middle fingers of his right hand, and the bowstring, which was as taut as a steel wire, suddenly tightened, pushing the tail of the arrow. The arrow feathers rubbed violently in the air, and with a "swoosh" sound, it flew towards the alien with the sound of breaking through the air.

The alien had just recovered from the explosion and raised its head when the arrow with destructive force pierced into its chest at a tricky angle. The moment the arrow head touched its soft muscle tissue, it was like a small drill, rotating and pushing away the disgusting flesh and blood, probing into the deepest layer!

But the alien would not be fooled this time. The moment the arrow shot in, it quickly pulled the arrow out with its front paws. However, before it could discard the arrow with a large piece of flesh and blood in its claws, the bowstring exploded again, and the third arrow hit it again, still hitting its wound.

The alien threw away the pulled arrow and lowered its body further, aiming its huge forehead at Kitahara Kong, using its body advantage to block the attack. Just now, it was lying on the ground like a reptile to stabilize its body, but the arrow shot into its chest at an almost parallel angle.

It was indeed smart, and could even adapt to circumstances in battle! So the third arrow shot into its hard skull, and the arrow lost its power after being twisted into an arc by the huge impact, and fell to the ground with a thud, but the alien did not rush over, but crouched on the ground like a puppy, as if waiting for something.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

The alien's hideous and terrifying head was slightly raised, as if wondering why the two arrows did not explode.

But when he pointed his head at the prey in front of him, two grenades drew a graceful arc in the air and flew over. One hit its hard skull, and the other bounced from the ground and rolled to the feet of the huge iron-blooded stone statue more than five meters high at the side of the passage.

There were two consecutive loud bangs, and the ground shook slightly. A grenade exploded above the alien's head, and the huge shock wave pushed its head down again. Another grenade raised a cloud of dust, and one of the statue's legs was broken by the explosion. After losing its balance, it slowly fell towards the alien lying on the ground...

There was a rumble, dust filled the air, and everything seemed to return to calm again...

Beiyuan Kong stared fixedly in front of him, and after more than ten seconds he placed the bow across his legs and slowly walked forward.

After the ash layer dissipated, all that was visible was a huge broken stone statue lying alone in the passage, and the alien had long disappeared.

Why are you so smart? If you are so smart, then Tiexue must be your father, right?

Fucking observer!

Beiyuan Kong gently closed his eyes, relaxed his whole body, took a deep breath and pulled the bowstring again. The tip of the arrow was pointing to the empty passage. He seemed to be aiming at the air or had given up struggling, and stood motionless in the standard shooting posture.

A minute passed and the surroundings were still quiet.

Two minutes passed and the alien did not appear again.

Three minutes have passed, perhaps it has left. As a living creature, it should at least have a sense of crisis.

This is how masters fight, and they stop when it’s enough?

Beiyuan Kong sighed, opened his eyes, and shot the arrow at random. People who play with bows have a habit of shooting as soon as they draw the bow, and never let the string go empty. He still keeps this habit.

He put the black bow back into the ring and turned his head to look behind him. Kato Megumi was still slumped against the wall of the stone chamber, staring at him blankly. If he ignored her, she would naturally come to her senses after a while.

Kitahara Sora took off his winter clothes and observed his wound with his upper body bare. A deep cut was made on his left shoulder by the alien's tail thorn, and blood was still gushing out. Fortunately, his shoulder blade was not injured, otherwise he would not be able to draw the bow again in the next period of time.

He took out first aid medicine and bandages from the ring, poured white powder on the wound and began to bandage it roughly.

"Will the aliens run away? At least they won't run away in the movie Predator. The observers must have enhanced their intelligence. They can even understand the effects of weapons in a humane way and what kind of threats something can pose to them. After being fooled once, they will never be fooled again. Doesn't this make them look more like biological beings..."

"It only took ten minutes for it to grow from a juvenile to an adult. I remember that in the movie, the aliens appeared soon after the people in the sacrifice room were parasitized. This can be considered a bug in the plot. How can a creature undergo such a big change in ten minutes?"

Kitahara Sora frowned and endured the stabbing pain in his shoulder as he continued to talk to himself, "I think the body of Tenharu Junko has been eaten. There are still many bugs in the movie. There is only a mummy on the altar. According to normal logic, there is no reason for the alien to not eat after it crawled out of the body of the sacrifice, so there shouldn't be a complete mummy on the altar..."

The Observer deliberately didn't fix this bug. It needs the Alien to grow up quickly to start hunting. The Iron Blood also needs the Alien to grow up in a very short time to facilitate their hunting, but what about their recovery ability? It won't be as amazing as Tank, right? The second time I saw it, its arm that was blown off could be restored. If the Alien also has a strong recovery ability, then it needs to eat again, so it should continue to look for targets.

"So, who will be your next target? Will it still be me, or will you pick on the weak ones?"

But it's not the style of this creature to run away in disgrace after finding its prey. This creature can sense danger, but it should not be afraid of death. So... can you please stop hovering around me? The AD in the bottom lane is not a soft persimmon after it rises!

"Da da da……"

As Kitahara Sora was talking, he suddenly took out his AK for no apparent reason, pointed the muzzle of the gun at the top and behind him, and pulled the trigger. The AK-105 spewed out fierce flames, and the flames once again illuminated the dark passage...

After firing more than ten bullets behind him, he put the gun back into the ring, tightened the bandage on the wound, picked up the clothes on the ground and put them on again without even looking in that direction.

Two seconds later, with a thump, the injured alien fell from behind the stone statue to the ground with a dull sound.

"So, are you the hunter or the prey?"

The observer's reward reminder came to his mind. Kitahara Sora turned around and glanced at the alien lying on the ground and trembling slightly. The bloodshot in his eyes dissipated and returned to normal color.

"Although I am not good at playing games, I have played the hunter profession for several years. I still remember the basic operation of marking the hand at the beginning. Although this profession has become a dick hunter in my hands..."

The scene just now was indeed thrilling, and he almost died here. Kitahara Sora himself didn't know why he suddenly felt a sense of crisis, just like when you are playing an FPS game, you are in a hurry to go to point A to press C4, and suddenly you walk to a corner without noticing, and subconsciously shoot over there, and sure enough, there is a person squatting there.

This sense of crisis had never appeared in the previous game, because I heard the sound of the smoker's sneak attack, and I didn't know that the hunter was lurking around me and could attack at any time. Is this the legendary combat intuition and sense of crisis? Or is it related to the hunter profession?

It was pure luck that I was able to survive. The aliens were smarter than those in the movies, but I couldn't be dumber than them, right?

I have the attribute of agility, and my strength is not enhanced. I certainly can't fight the alien in close combat like a certain boss, so the alien likes to attack by surprise, right? Then let it go, the hunter's mark is on you, can you still perform a natural operation?

The battle was completely over at this time. Kitahara Sora's cold voice finally brought Kato Megumi, who had been on the verge of death not far away, back to reality. She recalled the scene of Kitahara Sora fighting with the alien in her mind, but her mind was actually blank.

When he started to bandage the wound, Kato Megumi slowly calmed down, and then suddenly Kitahara Sora shot at her. The sudden gunshot made her stunned again, and then her eyes blurred, and a black shadow fell from the top of her head to in front of her with a snap.

She trembled and slowly lowered her head, and saw milky yellow blood lying in the hideous bloody mouth of this horrible monster, dripping onto the ground with a sizzling sound.

She found that the bullet had accurately entered its mouth, penetrated the upper jaw, and shattered the brain tissue...

The monster's tail was still swinging slightly unconsciously. She found that the monster's huge head was pressing on her feet. The cold touch and pressure were transmitted from the instep to the brain nerves. Her pupils that had lost their highlight focused again. Her delicate and indifferent cheeks became slightly distorted, and her facial muscles twitched slightly involuntarily.

Suddenly, as if he had been strengthened in the reincarnation world, he moved his legs extremely quickly and agilely, using his hands and feet to sit on the ground and rapidly retreat.

Only after moving seven or eight meters did he stare at the monster's corpse, panting hard and shaking his head quickly. Tears could not stop flowing from his eyes and flowed into his slightly opened mouth...

Only the most unprofessional director would bring the heroine of a youth romance drama to star in a thriller.

Isn't that right, observer?

The girl seemed frightened.

Chapter 19: The Art of Fighting

In the sacrificial room, seven bodies were lying quietly on seven altars. Maybe they were not considered bodies, because they were still alive. Three bikers and four plot characters were lying quietly on them. The mechanism popped up, and a meat ball as big as an ostrich egg slowly rose from the head of each stone bed. The top of the meat ball was covered with disgusting stringy mucus, and it bloomed like a flower. Then, a strange creature like a scorpion crawled out from it and attacked everyone.

The moment they came into contact with the air, they leaped towards the face of the sacrifice like a jumping spider. The indescribable crack in the center of their body opened up, and their thumb-thick reproductive organs slowly stretched out and inserted into the mouth of the sacrifice, then fixed tightly on their face.

Then the seven unconscious people began to tremble like puppets on strings for a moment, and then returned to calm after a few seconds.

The people outside the stone room stared with wide eyes, observing the situation inside through the cracks in the stone wall. Hisada Daishi remained silent with his gun in hand, Aki Tomoya seemed to have calmed down as well, lowering his head, not knowing what he was thinking. Komuro Takashi clenched his teeth tightly, and seemed to be having a fierce ideological struggle in his heart.

"Uncle Hisada, Aki-san, we have to...kill them."

After a moment, Komuro Takashi glanced at the sacrifice room behind the wall again, and finally made up his mind and said to Hisada Daishi: "They are already dead, and we can't let the things in their bodies come out."

These people were chatting with him just now. Except for the four European faces, he didn't recognize them, but the three bikers were still his companions. They didn't enter the pyramid, but appeared here ten minutes later, and they were already parasitized. Why they appeared here was unknown.

But it is impossible for them to enter on their own initiative. Although they have never seen what the monster called "Alien" mentioned by the captain looks like, the current situation is exactly consistent with his description, so now is the best time while the alien's larvae have not yet fully hatched!

"Kill, kill them?"

Aki Tomoya suddenly raised his head, held his eye sockets in disbelief, swallowed hard, and asked stutteringly: "Murder? Do you want to kill someone? Are you sure you want to kill someone? It's irreversible after taking this step!"

"For now, this is the safest way!" Komuro Takashi had a painful look on his face, and his hand holding the gun began to tremble slightly. His world had collapsed, and he had seen too many bloody scenes and killed many zombies, but this was his first time killing someone. So did he really have to kill someone?

But we must survive. If we don't kill them, it will be troublesome if the monsters in their stomachs come out. Such monsters are beyond our ability to fight, so we must not let them appear! We must go back alive. The captain still has a lot to say, about Rei and Yong! And if I suddenly disappear, Senior Saeko and Saya will definitely be worried. Teacher Shizuka is a natural idiot. I brought them and just met another group of survivors. Will she be bullied?

So we must go back alive, for everyone!

Komuro Takashi's hesitant eyes gradually became firm. With a "swish", he loaded the rifle, inserted the muzzle into the gap in the stone wall, aimed at Xiaohong's chest, and slowly placed his finger on the trigger.

Despite comforting himself mentally, his index finger still couldn't pull the trigger. He closed his eyes tightly and then opened them suddenly. At the moment of shooting, the gun body was pressed down by a hand. At this time, Aki Tomoya's face turned red and his expression was a little excited.

"No, no! I don't agree!"

He stiffened his neck and suddenly shouted, "There must be other ways. What if that man is lying? He can kill people without changing his expression! Maybe there are only monsters like this in this pyramid! What if they are just being sucked of nutrients and not killed? That man must have a lot of things he hasn't told us. Maybe he is the mastermind behind this incident. He must have some secrets!"

"You... let go!"

"No, no!" Aki Tomoya's face flushed, he held Komuro Takashi's gun tightly with both hands, and said loudly: "Komuro-san, please believe me, I have already thought it through just now, listen to me first and then decide whether to do it or not. There must be a conspiracy behind this, and his purpose may be to make us kill each other!"

At this point, Komuro Takashi suddenly became confused. He frowned and stared at the excited Amaki Tomoya: "What do you mean Amaki-san?"

The latter breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his expression, and adjusted his eye sockets again. The lenses of his eyes actually reflected a gleam of light in the dim environment.

"I've played a lot of games, and many of them are actually adapted from real stories, such as many supernatural works!" He gently let go of Komuro Takashi's gun, with a look of confidence and pride on his face: "Before today, I actually didn't believe the phrase 'based on a true story' advertised by the production company on the cover of the game. The reason they did this was entirely to add a gimmick to the work, to make people associate it with it in order to increase sales, but today I believe it!"

"Although we don't know how that man named Kitahara Sora got us here, he must have some secrets. For example, the little bug just now was a new creature secretly developed by his company. In fact, he wanted to use us for experiments, so he made up this ridiculous lie!"

As he spoke, he began to look around: "If my guess is correct, there must be a lot of hidden pinhole cameras here. Maybe he is hiding in the monitoring room and observing us now!"

"So I did believe what he said at first, and even had ridiculous fantasies about my future. But just now, I thought about it carefully in the closed space..."

Komuro Takashi and Hisada Daishi looked at each other, then fixed their gazes on the talking Yan Zhai. He paused with an embarrassed tone and continued, "The woman named Yukinoshita Yukino must have some chemical substance hidden in her fingernails that can produce something like ice when exposed to air under certain circumstances. Seeing it with your own eyes may not necessarily be the truth."

Seeing the two people's puzzled expressions, An Yilong gradually showed a confident smile and continued, "Maybe those Europeans are in the same group with them! Or maybe he is not a murderer? That woman may not be dead at all! When the pyramid was deformed, the old man named Weyland was with us, but he was accidentally attacked by that monster and fell to the lower level, so I guess this is also their plan! If what he said is true, then the old man must have turned into a monster, why haven't we seen that monster appear until now?"

"They don't want to be with us, so he did this on purpose... If you think about it carefully, you will understand. Did ancient Egypt have this kind of construction technology? The deformation here must require huge power and mechanical operation to be able to perform, right? So they are acting a show, otherwise why do you think those three bad guys are here? They can't come in by themselves, so..."

Aki Tomoya pushed his eye sockets, his expression proud and complacent, as if he was impressed by his own intelligence: "He must have caught the three of them!"
