Chapter 287: Combining Into One
Chapter 287 ·Gathering into One
Ishimura No.
Zhu Wen didn’t know what this name represented—or why it represented anything. But she had a feeling that it was precisely because Jiang Yu knew this name that she gave up the strategy of going directly to heaven to solve this serious trouble.
He seemed a little afraid of the ship - afraid, but not afraid. It was as if there was some mechanism on that ship that was fatal even to reincarnators.
There can't be some high-level subplot hidden there?
Zhu Wen thought to herself, but she couldn't form a complete logic in her head. The connection between the spaceship and the branch plot... and the high-level and high-risk branch plot requires a lot of advance information to prove. And if the result can be obtained by skipping the prefix, it can only prove that Jiang Yu has an extraordinary sense of smell in this regard.
Maybe this is why Jiang Yu can become the captain?
Zhu Wen didn't know, but she felt that her guess was probably correct. What she didn't even realize was that during the whole process, she didn't have even the slightest suspicion that Jiang Yu might have made a mistake in judgment.
"Let's go, let's solve the immediate problem first." Jiang Yu's decision was to deal with the urgent matter with a deadline of three hours first. Ripley's location, at least so far, is still within Zhu Wen's perception area.
She was still only able to sense, but not accurately locate - she couldn't even effectively detect the general environment corresponding to the area surrounding Ripley. This made it impossible for Jiang Yu to teleport directly in one step, and strangely, Jiang Yu did not mention the suggestion of 'making other similar attempts' to her here.
He didn't understand, maybe he had foreseen some crisis - the man in front of him became more and more unpredictable in Zhu Wen's eyes. As a new helper who had just arrived, she decided to stay quiet for the time being and listen to the commander's words.
"The alien plot we originally planned to deal with has mutated. Some elements that do not belong to the alien worldview and are more dangerous have appeared on this planet - the Black Steel Security Alliance should be the first to master them. And Ripley's joining made them decide to use this planet as an experimental site, which is also a trap."
He motioned to his companions to follow and explained over the communication network. The established terminology only exists in the oral and even sensory cognition of reincarnators, so there is no need to worry about possible leaks.
"The trap is a trap for us. In this world, Wieland Company has a huge family business, and our 'Middle-earth' is the element and legend that it relies on to create this huge family business. When we choose to place our target While here, the Lord God completed the operating logic behind the scenes and used a two-year gap as a buffer to make everything more reasonable.”
The solid door was right in front of him. He stretched out his hand and tore the several-meter-thick alloy door panel immediately like tearing pieces of paper. What gushed out from behind the door was the hot, humid and fishy smell of blood. And even the most terrifying slaughterhouse is not enough to describe the cruelty behind the door.
It's disgusting. Even those enhanced warriors may have felt a little uncomfortable when they witnessed this scene - Zhao Yingkong stepped into the pool of blood without changing his expression, while Zhu Wen stood at the door and hesitated for a moment, but finally persisted. Scalp walked in.
She thought she would be so sick that she threw up.
but none.
Ordinary people who don't even dare to kill chickens and ordinary people who vomit when they see corpses will only appear in a peaceful world without supernatural powers. What they fear is not the corpse, but death and the unknown that brings it. And since all the causes and consequences are known, and he is also capable of creating the same scene without any effort, then the physiological reaction can be easily suppressed, and at most, it will be a little physical discomfort.
Zhao Yingkong seemed to turn his head and glance at her.
"I can't name this mysterious element yet. But its derivative, I think it can be called a necromorph - it will release some kind of radiation, or some kind of wave, to quickly transform flesh and blood that conforms to the concept of a corpse. , making it a violently powerful immortal monster, and the weakness of this kind of monster is that it must have a certain size to operate, so cutting them or crushing them is a suitable way to deal with them. Of course, the divine power of death is available to them. Absolutely repressive.”
Jiang Yu explained that he did not turn his gaze away, but Zhu Wen felt that he was carefully observing the soldiers of the Enhanced Company who visited the slaughterhouse with the reincarnations - if something disturbing suddenly appeared on someone or some people, If there are uneasy changes, then he may take action immediately. Fortunately, that didn't happen.
"So, what if there are no corpses nearby?" Zhao Yingkong asked a question whose answer everyone knew - she might be asking Zhu Wen.
"Then it will turn nearby living creatures into corpses." Jiang Yu nodded and took up the topic again. After he found no one abnormal, he continued to push deeper into the prison with the enhanced warriors covering each other. Of course, the direction was the direction of Ripley, and he himself stood at the top of the arrow.
"I don't know the specific principle, but it must have some kind of coercive power and danger. And this unknown mysterious element should be in Ripley's body at present - it has no effect on Ripley, or it has played a sufficient effect on Ripley. And this is probably the reason why you, Zhu Wen, can't divine a second time after the first divination. The element in the other party's hand may have some kind of intelligent effect and the ability to automatically defend."
Ripley must have been strengthened. She was infected and transformed by an object that Jiang Yu knew was the 'Divine Seal', but others were not clear. She became the agent of the will in the hands of the other party, or an advanced tool. The relationship between the 'unknown element' and her may be similar to the T virus to the heroine Alice. Others who are infected will only become zombies/corpse variants, but the chosen ones will gain abilities.
She will have abilities.
This ability will be threatening to the reincarnations.
This kind of thing does not need to be said directly, and the several reincarnations present must understand it clearly. However, compared to this ability whose true identity is unknown but must exist, there are other things that may be more worthy of the attention of the reincarnationists.
Zhu Wen noticed these things.
"You just said... they need to form a scale to have the ability to move. So as long as they are disassembled, they will lose their activity."
In the distance, there seemed to be a subtle sense of crisis. The calamity of the people present increased a little at this moment.
"So, does this mean... if they are combined into one, they may have a stronger combat power?"
'Boom--'
A punch.
The heavy metal door in front of Jiang Yu turned into debris.
Accompanied by terrifying screams and roars, a behemoth like a giant spider, which was formed by the aggregation of dozens of corpses, suddenly appeared. Dozens of arthropods waved wildly, and dozens of hideous and twisted faces released a real sonic roar.
The enhanced warriors who were supposed to open fire at the first time were shaken by the impact of the sonic wave. Some unknown impact that resides in the sound waves disturbed them, and even made the reincarnations feel a little frenzy!
A little.
Just a little.
Jiang Yu did not move, but dozens of dark lines appeared around this aggregated corpse. And the next moment, all the throats were cut, and all the blades were cut off by the slash!
"Fire! Fire!" The enhanced soldiers who should not have too many emotions woke up from their dreams and poured fear and firepower on the monster that had lost its combat effectiveness. Bullets and lasers rained down until everything was turned into residue.
Powerful monster.
But not strong enough.
And from Jiang Yu's lips, a whisper reached Zhu Wen at this moment.
"The guess is correct, but it is not comprehensive. If it is just a human corpse, then even if it is built into a monster, it is not a big threat to us. But..."
"The strength of the corpse has a foundation, but the scalability above this depends on the level of the material. On this planet, in this prison, there are not only humans."
Not only humans.
There are also aliens.
The corpses generated by aliens are far stronger than the corpses formed by human incarnation.
So...what kind of combat power should the twisted individuals formed by the aggregation of alien corpses have?
The answer was obtained the moment the thought came into being.
Beside Zhu Wen, the wall broke like a phantom, and dozens of sharp and spiritually polluted blade feet approached Zhu Wen's neck rapidly in the sound of sonic boom.
She noticed it - a moment earlier because of Jiang Yu's reminder.
She knew she couldn't avoid it - her physical speed had an upper limit, and she couldn't escape from the sonic attack.
She knew she couldn't die - the saint's cloak on her body had not been activated yet, which should be able to save her life.
Even without the Saint's Cloak, Jiang Yu, who had given a warning one step ahead, would have certainly saved his life in time.
So, should we wait for help?
Or... can we do something?
Thousands of thoughts flashed through Zhu Wen's mind.
In Zhu Wen's body, power gathered one step ahead of will.
So, thinking and power reached a consensus at this moment. She once again verified a truth - that is, only those who strive can walk with those who strive!
The miracle fire broke out of the body.
It turned into a flame beast with a blurred face that rushed straight to the multiple blades in front of it.
The power of idealism should be exerted in an idealistic way - of course, this may also be inseparable from the silent and tiny help of some companions.
Zhao Yingkong pressed the hand of the Undead Slash and shook it slightly.
And the next moment, the gathered alien corpses were engulfed in the flames.
Death, accompanied by the whisper of the Lord God who finally sounded.
