Chapter 9: The Dead Bug Starship
Chapter 9: The Dead Bug Starship
Around 2520 AD, 35 years have passed since the great war between humans and the Zerg, and in the space of the red dwarf star Gliese 581 in Libra, there is a huge abandoned starship.
The Homeland, the sixth large warship built after a hundred years of human space immigration, is also one of the main warships lost in the human-insect war five years ago.
Its hull has been penetrated by the Zerg, and there are five penetrating wounds in the outer protective armor layer, forming many bullet holes of different sizes, fortunately, before the Zerg attacked, the battleship had entered a state of combat readiness, and all the pressure-resistant airtight transverse hatches and fireproof and anti-magnetic storm isolation walls had been closed, although the Homeland was heavily damaged but not sunk, but this made the living humans suffer more hardships.
Because of the short-distance exchange of fire between humans and Zerg, the power supply system in some areas was destroyed and plunged into darkness, and the Middle-earth Warhammer team was teleported into the starship by the silver Trojan horse, and the first problem encountered was darkness.
"Ahh Yes! A woman's vision suddenly lost her vision, and she screamed in fright, and her voice crashed into the narrow passage, forming an echo, which was even more harsh and made people's teeth ache.
After Tang Zheng finished teleporting, he felt a chill on his cheeks, estimated that the temperature was about twenty degrees, and was about to turn on the tactical flashlight, when he heard this scream, worried that the enemy would hear it, so he immediately rushed in the direction of the sound source.
"Don't scream, keep it all quiet." Tang Zheng's judgment was quite accurate, he turned on the flashlight and shook it, and then covered the face of a woman in professional clothes and blocked her mouth.
The woman was suddenly attacked, and she panicked even more, she didn't hear what Tang Zheng said at all, and kept struggling, trying to escape.
"Shut up." Tang Zheng let out a low roar, let go of the rifle with his other hand, and strangled the neck of the female staff member with one arm, "If you don't want to die, shut up for me." ”
The woman was almost suffocated, and in less than twenty seconds, her cheeks turned red, and as soon as Tang Zheng let go, she fell to her knees with a pop, ignoring shouting, gasping for breath.
"Trojan Horse, this guy with a bad taste, has increased the difficulty again." Tang Zheng shook the tactical flashlight, and found that there were only four people staying together, in addition to the female staff who shouted, there was also a female college student and the bomb man's girlfriend squatting on the ground, holding her shoulders and looking around timidly, three meters away, it was a man, who was holding a rifle at this time, bending over, looking around vigilantly, and when the tactical flashlight in Tang Zheng's hand lit up, he immediately wanted to run over.
"Wait, give you a flashlight, make sure our location is safe first!" Tang Zheng stopped him, and after throwing the tactical flashlight over, he took out two more and looked around.
The blue-tinged flashlight pillar moved, allowing the surrounding environment to come into everyone's field of vision little by little.
This is a passage for three people to walk side by side, the walls are rusty, and the ceiling is constantly dripping with water, Tang Zheng wants to listen carefully to the movement, but unfortunately the breathing of the three women is like a broken bellows, and everything is disturbed.
Tang Zheng used his throat microphone to call others, but the interference was too serious, and there was nothing except the noise of the current.
"Thank you." The man thanked him, with the light, the sense of security in his heart suddenly rose to a higher level, he thought that Tang Zheng was a good person, but he didn't know that the head of the group was more avoiding risks, only he was holding a flashlight, maybe he would be the first to be attacked.
This man was about twenty-five years old, with a face with the wind and frost of social experience, and a very friendly attitude, and when his flashlight fell on the nightdress girl, he couldn't help but stop, and then quietly swallowed.
The woman's erotic nightdress is a super short tulle style, which can't cover the pink thong on the lower body at all, at this time, because she is squatting on the ground, the two plump buttocks are even more eye-catching, and her breasts are pressed on her thighs, overflowing a circle of breasts ~ meat. …,
"I seem to be able to do whatever I want?" Zhou Peng was a little nervous, but he caught a glimpse of Tang Zheng out of the corner of his eye, and suppressed his desire~ hope.
"Can you move?" Tang Zheng moved a few steps and handed out the two extra flashlights, and the nightdress girl and the female college student immediately reached out to take it, afraid that they would be snatched away by others if they took a slow step.
"My name is Zhou Peng, take care of me." The man removed the flashlight and accosted him embarrassedly, wanting to get closer to Tang Zheng, but he saw with his own eyes that this man shot another guy's foot.
"Tang Zheng." Of course, Tang Zheng noticed Zhou Peng's possessive gaze just now, and he was a little displeased.
"What is this, what is this place?" Teng Yuanxiang, the nightdress girl, asked boldly, and was about to stand up, but then she noticed that her clothes were inappropriate and squatted down again.
"I don't know, you can double your physical fitness by putting on protective clothing first, and maybe you can save your life at a critical moment." Because he didn't know what the unknown enemy was, Tang Zheng changed into the strongest heavy magnetic storm rifle, but there was no guide rail, and there was no way to hang a tactical flashlight, so he could only carry it in his hand, which affected the operation very much.
Tang Zheng moved the flashlight away and took a few steps forward, but Zhou Peng shamelessly still shone the flashlight on Fuji Yuanxiang, admiring every inch of his skin.
"Hey, have you seen enough?" Fuji Yuanxiang is not a submissive master, and with a frown, he scolded.
"I'll help you with the lighting, what's wrong? It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, I don't know the hearts of good people! Zhou Peng frowned, but instead he hit it backwards, accusing Fuji Yuanxiang, seeing the nightdress girl choked, a touch of coldness crossed his eyes, thinking about the time when you were unlucky.
The female staff hadn't eased up yet, and the female college student was holding the box, looking at Zhou Peng, and didn't change her clothes.
"Zhou Peng, get out of the line, there are three of you, I'll give you thirty seconds, and if you don't wear clothes well, you don't have to wear them again." Tang Zheng didn't have time to waste here, he scolded, and the four newcomers started to act.
Turning on the handheld, there was no prompt on the circular screen, Tang Zheng put it away, waited for the newcomer to put on protective clothing, and began to move forward.
The passage was narrow and dark, and there was a feeling of dead silence, but it was soon filled with the sound of heavy breathing, and the three female newcomers were very scared, and they all followed closely behind Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng held the flashlight in his left hand, crossed it to his chest, and rested his heavy magnetic storm rifle on his arm, marching in this posture to ensure that he could fire at the first sight of the enemy.
Zhou Peng stayed at the back of the team, very insecure, and kept looking back.
Tang Zheng doesn't like to be passive, so he walks in the first place, and the end of the team is not necessarily safe, as for the women, he still has no scum to the point of letting them explore the way.
The group walked for a full five minutes before they exited the passageway, and the newcomers breathed a sigh of relief when a large beehive-like life-support pod came into view.
"What the hell is this place?" The female clerk asked with tears in her voice, and in front of her was a spherical space, about five stories high, with small rooms like equilateral hexagons on the walls.
"Shut up, there's no need, don't talk." Tang Zheng warned again, but as soon as he finished speaking, Fuji Yuanxiang called out.
", dry corpse." Fujimoto grabbed his clothes and pointed to a mutilated corpse on the ground.
"Humans?" Tang Zheng walked over and saw that the corpse had been bitten by sharp teeth, but he was more worried about gravity now, as soon as he entered this life-support cabin, he found that his body was much lighter.
If the power system is restored, this should be a microgravity environment, and with a slight jump, you can float into those high rooms, although there are ten doors, but Tang Zheng has no choice, so he can only leave from the two next to the ground.
Tang Zheng didn't check those 'hive rooms', if there were monsters, he would probably be trapped to death after being alarmed, the top priority was to first determine a safe passage and a shelter, and then find a way to meet his companions. …,
There is a controller on the left side of the metal door, but unfortunately there is no electricity, there is no way to use it, after Tang Zheng smashed it twice, he began to twist the manual brake on the door, and in the creaking sound, the metal door opened little by little.
"Do you have to open it? Will there be monsters? The female college student asked, taking a few steps back, afraid of being affected.
Tang Zheng didn't pay attention to them, and he didn't expect them to take cover, after opening a gap, he stopped moving, because a faint light overflowed through the crack in the door, he glanced a few times, and there was a passage of about thirty meters on the opposite side, connecting to another life support cabin.
Because the three thermonuclear power systems continue to provide energy to the warship, the gravity in the area that has not been destroyed by the Zerg is still normal, the lighting system is normal, and the living facilities are still running, but there are no more indigenous humans.
"There's light, hurry up." Zhou Peng was very sinister, he wanted to leave, and he was afraid of danger, so he plucked the three women, the female college student had no scheming, and when she saw the pillar of light in the passage, she looked happy, so she hurriedly walked in, the female staff and Fuji Yuanxiang glanced at Tang Zheng, and did not dare to move, one was afraid, but wanted him to open the way.
"I'll come." Zhou Peng took the first step in, firstly, to show his demeanor, and secondly, he really didn't want to stay at the end of the team, anyway, there were female college students who opened the way, and they could escape in time if there was a crisis.
Tang Zheng was the third to enter, and as soon as the female staff took a step, she was squeezed away by Fuji Yuanxiang, half a beat slower, and even almost fell.
The female staff member pursed her lips, and as soon as she stepped out of her left foot, a black shadow jumped from the ceiling above her and pounced on her.
"Ah, help!" The female staff hit her head on the ground, screaming, the monsters are not low in IQ, knowing that there is no way to hide their tracks, and in an instant a roar is squeezed out of their throats, intimidating the prey, and all of them are dispatched.
They jump against the walls, all with the sound of kicking.
Fujimotoka was frightened, frightened, and instinctively turned around, and saw a head with dark green skin stretched out, with a large open mouth full of sharp teeth, dripping saliva, and a foul-smelling fishy breath poured directly into the nasal cavity.
"Get out of the way." Tang Zheng quickly turned around, let go of the flashlight, grabbed Fuji Yuanxiang's arm, pulled her behind her, and shot with a gun in one arm at the same time.
The flashlight was taken off, but because the chain was tied to the wrist, it did not fall, and during the shaking, the light spot moved on the ground, and Tang Zheng's vision immediately dimmed, but then the magnetic storm ball that burst out illuminated the opposite side, and then shot into the monster's head, blowing it apart and bursting flesh and blood.
"Help me!" Because she was wearing protective clothing, although the female staff member was bitten off an arm, she was not dead, but there were too many monsters, and she pounced into the passage one after another, even if Tang Zheng strafed, there was no way to advance to rescue for a while.
The sound of gunshots, the screams of women, the roars of monsters, and the dim, rusty passages make up a picture of death.
The female college student and Fuji Yuanxiang covered their ears, listening to the screams of the female staff gradually weakening and disappearing, their frightened faces turned white, they knew that the woman was dead, and the two women wanted to run away, but they didn't dare to leave Tang Zheng, and they almost squeezed to death.
Fuji Yuanxiang was even more secretly glad that if she hadn't pulled her just now and had taken the lead, she would have died now.
Zhou Peng was short of breath, his eyeballs almost burst, and by the light of the magnetic storm ball, he saw the appearance of those monsters, which were humanoid creatures, about sixty centimeters tall, wet, crawling with mucus, as if they had no skin, and they could directly see the texture of the muscles, their heads were large, with a tongue more than a foot long, their limbs were strong and powerful, and the claws on their limbs were sharp and hard, slashing on the metal wall, and the sparks burst out, drawing a half-inch thick trace.
Zhou Peng gasped, if this is caught on a human body, it will definitely be rotten.
Tang Zheng strafed, forced the camel insect back, followed by one hand to pull the door of the house, closed it, no way, with the faint light, he saw at least hundreds of camel insects in the life support cabin rushing over, in this situation, he didn't want to resist. …,
The female staff member died, her wide-eyed face facing the passageway, leaving only half of her blood-stained mutilated body, but it would soon be eaten clean by the bugs.
Bang, bang, the camels slammed the metal door a few times and gave up, and then Tang Zheng and the four of them heard the clattering sound of chewing, which was extremely infiltrating.
"Was, eaten?" The female college student looked at Tang Zheng in a daze, with a frightened expression on her face.
"Keep walking!" Tang Zheng glanced at the metal door and began to quickly run towards the next hive life support cabin, and the three newcomers hurriedly followed.
Fortunately, the insects are tired of light, everyone is safe for the time being, and this is a microgravity environment, with a slight force, the body will float, this time Tang Zheng has several more choices, he checked every metal door, and then selected a good one, ready to explore, but was pulled by Fuji Yuanxiang.
"Do what?" Tang Zheng frowned slightly, time was pressing, where could he afford to waste it.
"I, I'm urgent." Fuji Yuanxiang hesitated, put her red lips to Tang Zheng's ear, whispered, and deliberately kissed his earlobe when leaving.
"Find a place to solve it, and if you don't dare, hold it back." Tang Zheng ignored her and entered the passage directly, how could he not understand Teng Yuanxiang's careful thoughts.
"Shameless slut." Seeing the nightdress girl seducing Tang Zheng, Zhou Peng cursed, all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred, he didn't have much hope for himself to live, he just thought about how to go crazy.
Teng Yuanxiang grabbed the rifle, her face was cloudy, she didn't have any discipline, in order to survive, she could naturally accompany Tang Zheng, but she was actually rejected, which made her, who had always been self-righteous, a little unbearable.
The female college student didn't have so many flowers, so she hurriedly followed behind Tang Zheng.
Fifty meters of passage, there was another beehive survival cabin, this time Tang Zheng had just entered, and he was attacked by camel insects, which came out of those small rooms and pounced on him.
"All back into the aisle." Seeing that the female college student went to raise the gun to shoot, but she forgot to pull the bolt of the gun, and not a single bullet was fired, Tang Zheng hurriedly shouted.
Zi, the magnetic storm ball blasted out, shooting the two camel insects, Tang Zheng saw more insects pounce on him, took out the Demon Flame pistol, and blasted out the storm barrage.
A red bullet was fired, then exploded, sweeping them away completely, and three shots in a row killed a large area.
"Awesome!" Teng Yuanxiang's voice trembled and complimented, seeing Tang Zheng's back blocking the passage, he felt that he was extremely majestic and full of manliness, and the out-of-shape Qian was always compared to him, and he was even inferior to a pig, but in the next second, the faces of the three newcomers changed greatly.
Dozens of three-meter-tall mature camel worms sprang out, hanging upside down from the ceiling, a pair of large eyeballs rotating 360 degrees, looking extremely disgusting.
Poof, poof, these camel insects launched a swift pounce, hitting a large amount of acid, compared to those low-level insects, they are more flexible and aggressive, every time they jump, they can dodge Tang Zheng's shot, as if they are like bats, using ultrasonic waves to find their way.
Tang Zheng flipped his left hand, took out the snow pill, and cut a certain camel insect that pounced on him into two pieces with a single knife, and the corpse slammed into the edge of the passage, and the bodies of the three newcomers were shocked.
In five minutes, Tang Zheng resolved the battle, and there were corpses all over the place, and he just wanted to check the next passage, when the handheld radar suddenly beeped.
"Anyone?" Looking at the red dot displayed above, Tang Zheng frowned, he must have been discovered, but he didn't know whether it was friend or foe, he hadn't forgotten that the Trojan horse had said that this time it was a team battle.
Tang Zheng walked a few steps in the direction of the red dot, but found that it was blocked by the wall, and the road was impassable, even if it was displayed on the handheld, they couldn't meet.
"Do you need a map?" Tang Zheng didn't move blindly, and began to think about strategies, he guessed correctly, this is a living area, there are so many hive cabins, even if it is an indigenous human, it will take at least a month to take an electronic map to recognize the way, not to mention the survivors.
No longer looking at the red dot, after turning off the small voice, Tang Zheng determined the direction, and then tried to find something that could be used as a coordinate, but for a full hour, nothing was gained.
"Tang Zheng, can you take a break?" Teng Yuanxiang was tired and thirsty, her throat was about to smoke, and she wanted to rest, but Tang Zheng ignored him at all, and continued, there was no way, she could only continue.
"Inhuman." Fujimotoka complained coquettishly, but unfortunately found the wrong object.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Peng thought that the opportunity had come, and took the initiative to be courteous, "I have a few pieces of chocolate here, do you want to eat them?" ”
"Get out of the way." Teng Yuanxiang glared at Zhou Peng and went to chase Tang Zheng, without giving him face at all.
Zhou Peng was going to be angry, and he had the urge to kill this stinky woman.
