Chapter 135 Alien Invasion 12
Chapter 135 Alien Invasion 12
Shen Ying and Su Lan fought back with all their might, the pulse guns constantly emitting "buzzing" sounds, blue energy pulses raining down on the aliens.
The gun in Shen Ying's hand kept spitting out tongues of fire.
Shen Ying felt her chest burning again, and a surge of power welled up from deep within her body, greatly enhancing her combat strength at that moment.
Shen Ying remembered that the system had mentioned that she had the opportunity to trigger the mysterious power of the totem, and perhaps her current situation was due to the power of the protective talisman on her body.
However, the alien attacks became increasingly fierce. In the intense firefight, some of the research institute's defenses were destroyed, giving the aliens an opportunity to break in. They poured in like a flood.
"Don't be afraid."
Su Lan's voice rang in Shen Ying's ears. Shen Ying's eyes flickered, and she responded firmly, "Yes!"
Back to back, they were instantly surrounded by a tidal wave of aliens.
Su Lan's eyes were sharp as a hawk's, and the pulse gun in her hand kept emitting a "buzzing" sound. The blue energy pulses swung at the aliens again and again like the scythe of death.
When an alien creature crept silently towards Shen Ying from the ventilation duct above her head, Su Lan sensed the danger almost simultaneously.
He whirled around, and his pulse gun fired a beam of intense light that struck the alien directly, blasting it into pieces in mid-air.
Before she could even catch her breath, two more aliens attacked Shen Ying from both sides. Su Lan quickly fired a shot at the one on the left, then rushed forward and smashed the right alien's head with the butt of her gun, knocking it back.
Shen Ying was completely focused, her figure nimbly moving among the aliens.
When a gigantic alien lunged at Su Lan from behind, Shen Ying didn't hesitate to use her body to crash into it, rolling to the ground with the alien.
She quickly raised her gun and fired repeatedly at the alien's abdomen until it stopped moving.
Another wave of aliens surged in, and Shen Ying's gun temporarily became useless due to its energy depletion.
She suddenly drew the dagger from her waist and slashed at the alien that was approaching Su Lan, but she didn't notice the attack coming from behind.
After quickly dealing with the alien in front of her, Su Lan pulled Shen Ying behind her.
"Watch out!" Su Lan shouted, shielding Shen Ying from a sudden attack by an alien, and her arm was slashed in the process.
"How are you?" Shen Ying asked anxiously.
"It's alright, keep going!" Su Lan said, her eyes sharply fixed on the alien.
At this critical moment of life and death, every second felt like a countdown stretched out by the Grim Reaper.
They supported each other, back to back, resisting the raging tide of alien attacks.
Sweat soaked their clothes, and dust etched streaks on their faces, leaving them looking disheveled.
After an unknown amount of time, although the number of aliens was decreasing, their attacks became increasingly fierce, as if they were making a desperate last stand before their demise.
After firing continuously, the pulse gun in Su Lan's hand ran out of energy and could no longer emit that blue pulse that symbolized hope.
Without hesitation, he threw away the pulse gun and drew a specially made alloy longsword from behind his back.
The long sword gleamed coldly in the dim light.
Shen Ying's abrasions stung painfully, and her disheveled hair clung to her sweat-drenched face.
The last alien seemed to sense the threat of death and roared as it charged towards them.
Su Lan shouted and charged forward, brandishing his alloy longsword.
The longsword collided with the alien's hard shell, sending sparks flying.
Su Lan's arms were bulging with veins, and each swing of his sword carried immense force, leaving deep wounds on the alien's body.
Shen Ying seized the opportunity and used her weapon to continuously attack the alien's weak points, creating an opportunity for Su Lan.
With their perfect coordination, Su Lan seized the opportunity and plunged her longsword deep into the alien's vitals. The alien struggled for a few moments before collapsing with a thud, its massive body crashing to the ground and raising a cloud of dust.
The two remained in their fighting stances for a long time before they came to their senses.
They were panting heavily, their chests heaving, their eyes slowly scanning their surroundings.
The once orderly research institute is now a mess, with walls covered in alien scratches and charred marks from the battle, and equipment lying in disarray, some still sparking.
The ground was stained with blood, and the smell of blood was pungent.
The two exchanged a glance, a feeling of relief washing over them.
Su Lan's lips trembled. She wanted to speak but didn't know where to begin. She simply walked silently toward Shen Ying and hugged her tightly.
Shen Ying leaned against Su Lan's chest, took a deep breath, and said, "We did it..."
Su Lan patted her on the back, lightly touched her forehead, and smiled, "Yes, we did it."
After a while, Su Lan released her embrace, looked at Shen Ying tenderly, raised her hand to wipe the dirt off her cheek, and said, "We need to check if there are any other dangers here, and also see if there is anything left that can be used."
Shen Ying grasped his hand, nodded, and the two intertwined their fingers, gazing at each other for a moment before beginning their search through the mess.
The dim light flickered overhead, a pungent odor filled the air, and the scratch marks left by the alien on the walls were grotesque and terrifying.
In that corner piled with clutter, a computer terminal was emitting a faint light, like a candle flame in the darkness.
Su Lan recognized the terminal at a glance; it was one he had specifically placed here to collect information about the aliens.
He quickly crouched down, his slender fingers rapidly tapping on the keyboard, the rhythm as tight as a war drum.
With a slight hiss, the screen lit up, first displaying a flurry of static-like noise, and then the information appeared.
The data on the screen was like a rushing torrent, and the images were like surging waves, crashing against their vision one after another.
These precious and chilling pieces of information were all captured by Su Lan through a monitoring program she personally set up.
The constantly shifting scenes presented a nightmarish landscape—the hatching grounds of aliens.
It was a huge, empty space, with huge tubular objects resembling blood vessels and meridians winding, spiraling, and crisscrossing on the surrounding walls.
The number of those alien insect eggs was terrifying; they were densely packed together, like a deadly swamp, teeming with endless horror.
The scene continues to change, showing the alien's behavior patterns in different environments.
In the dense jungle, the alien figures moved like ghosts, darting between the trees at incredible speed. The dappled shadows of the trees provided them with perfect cover, and every move they made was silent, yet carried a deadly intent.
When the scene shifts to the ruins of a city, these terrifying creatures thrive even more.
Their lithe figures swiftly climbed the broken walls and ruins, with the shattered concrete and twisted steel bars posing no obstacle to them.
Every movement they make is incredibly precise. Whether they are hunting prey or escaping potential danger, they exhibit a chilling efficiency and lethality, as if they exist solely to destroy all life.
In terms of data, there are dense lines of code and formulas.
These codes are like a complex maze, with each line hiding secrets about the alien's genetic structure.
Su Lan's eyes flashed like lightning as she quickly searched and analyzed the information.
