Chapter 44 Post-War Meeting
It is worth mentioning that during the pursuit, the incomparably powerful and ferocious black shadow did not appear again. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Fang Senyan and the others to retreat so calmly while fighting. Their attack mode seemed similar to that of assassins in the dark, drawing blood with every strike. If they were not sure of success, they would never expose themselves to the sunlight.
Just thinking about their perverted strength, and then thinking about how they even had to adopt such a sneaky and wretched fighting style of lurking and hunting, it really gave one a creepy and hair-raising feeling.
After escaping the pursuit, the four of them rested in place for a while, bandaging themselves, and slowly recovering their strength by eating some food. After they had recovered to a certain extent, the three of them looked at Fang Senyan in unison, their eyes full of inquiry.
Obviously, even if Fang Senyan didn't want to stand up and lead the team now, it wouldn't work. But it seemed that Fang Senyan had already made up his mind, and he said decisively:
"Obviously, those irritable beasts couldn't have known we were coming. We're just a group of unexpected surprises that delivered ourselves to their doorstep. So, we can basically be sure that their ambush was definitely not set up for us."
"Then we can judge from the reaction of the irritable beasts that the humans who were captured should still have companions, and these companions are very likely to come and rescue them. So, we just need to return to their camp and wait, and there should be a good chance of meeting the companions of those who were captured."
After listening to Fang Senyan's analysis, everyone agreed without any objection, and they set off towards the place they had come from.
It is worth mentioning that after they arrived at the camp of those who had been captured before, they found a guy on the verge of death and unconscious not far from the camp.
This person was none other than Paul, the metal shaper that Fang Senyan had once determined was very likely to survive.
Behind him, the war machine golem Heracles had been completely destroyed, standing tragically like a statue beside his master, as if even after death, he still had to protect his master's safety.
At this time, it could be seen that Heracles was still emitting thick black smoke, and there were traces of fire and explosion on his body. Obviously, this guy had protected his master and escaped here. However, a large number of negative statuses, such as acid and petrification, still enveloped his body. In the case of the master's unconsciousness, he could not get effective control, thus causing the short circuit of the machine, fire, and finally explosion and combustion, completely destroyed.
As for how Paul escaped, Fang Senyan could tell from his attitude towards Heracles. He should still have a more powerful war golem, and that thing had led him all the way to break through the siege. That thing should have consumed a lot or had a time limit, so it disappeared directly.
Fang Senyan and the others certainly couldn't stand idly by, but after checking Paul, they found that he didn't have any major problems. Apart from the external injuries, it was only because there were too many negative statuses accumulated on his body that he had been suppressed into a near-death state.
Because there shouldn't be any fighting going on at the moment... even if there is fighting, they can escape with him, so there is no need to waste precious potions to treat him. Basically, Paul will wake up after a sleep, and the duration of the negative status will pass. He will be fine the next morning.
At this time, Aldaris walked around the periphery of the camp, mainly to prevent the Slaad from attacking, so he placed four psionic guards around the camp. The psionic guards were similar to torches burning and inserted into the ground, except that the flames were gray and white, and could fly out fireballs to kill some ordinary creatures, or give warnings.
At this time, everyone was lying or sitting beside the bonfire, and they felt the deep sense of frustration coming over them. Even Aldaris couldn't help but sigh in pain:
"Those damned irritable beasts, none of my artificial human slaves escaped!! My instruments."
Fang Senyan said calmly at this time:
"Relax, the irritable beasts will not have any interest in metal, and after the artificial humans found that the only thing that might attract these dangerous creatures was their own brain plasma, they also specially added a layer of isolation membrane to avoid the leakage of the deteriorated and additive-filled protein smell, so, in the eyes of the irritable beasts, as long as the artificial humans do not move, then they are as unattractive as the reeds and silt in the swamp. Believe in the wisdom of those artificial humans to survive."
"I hope you're right," Aldaris said sullenly. "But even if you're right, we have no way to get back what originally belonged to us."
Fang Senyan pondered:
"Strictly speaking, it's not impossible. Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. Now that we have mastered the trump cards of the irritable beasts... although it seems that the price paid for mastering these is very high, it is definitely not impossible with our current strength."
Bokan interjected at this time:
"It is possible for us to kill all those bastards, but that takes time. Unfortunately, our main task in coming to this cursed planet is not to kill those disgusting guys. Although those bastards in the space base didn't give us too much time limit, I have a feeling that it is better to complete the task as soon as possible, so we don't have much time to squander now!"
"Well said." Fang Senyan nodded approvingly: "I have been considering this issue before, but now I find that we are
Did we go into a misunderstanding from the beginning in the direction of finding ore? Is it really good to search for veins like headless flies like before?"
"If my guess is correct... then finding ore veins is not a difficult thing. The premise is that I have to get some relevant information about this world. I think the humans who have stayed here for a period of time should have this information. The key is how to persuade them to give us the information. Perhaps rescuing their companions can do this... you see, things have returned very beautifully to killing these damned irritable beasts."
Bokan shrugged and said:
"Then okay, it seems that you are still worthy of my trust,
So I will support you temporarily for the time being."
At this time, since Fang Senyan had a proposal to continue attacking the irritable beasts, everyone also pondered in their hearts:
Privately speaking, everyone was indeed beaten extremely embarrassed by the irritable beasts before, and they lost without even showing their strength. Naturally, they were extremely unwilling. How could the proud and arrogant swallow this breath?
Publicly speaking, most of the detection and refining instruments are on the artificial humans, and to put it bluntly, they may also be able to get the soul equipment of their dead companions. How can they be willing if they don't get this back? So they also agreed with Fang Senyan's proposal.
But at this moment, Ronnie, who had been silent all the time, suddenly revealed a very important message.
"Our safe stay here will probably not exceed ten days."
"I had a deal with Black General before, so the news I got from him before I set off was that the Predators will start hunting according to the usual practice in the near future, but the first batch to arrive will be the most elite warriors. The first thing they have to do is to clear us creatures that should not appear on the planet! Avoid affecting their young nobles' trials next."
Fang Senyan also understood why Ronnie was hostile to him before. Before he set off, he occupied the private plane that Black General had left for Ronnie, and then he snatched Ronnie's crushing extractor... Adding these factors together, it's no wonder Ronnie didn't like him.
Aldaris said at this time:
"Since we have decided that the next goal is to take down the irritable beast camp, then we have to figure out what that monster that can travel mysteriously underground is."
Speaking of this topic, Fang Senyan said solemnly:
"If I'm not mistaken, then it should be the enemy that the Predators like to kill the most. The reason why they like this enemy is because this monster is strong enough, poisonous enough, insidious enough, and dangerous enough to force the powerful Predators into a life-and-death situation. That is also the most exciting moment for the Predators, as if life has been sublimated in an instant!"
"Are you saying that thing is an Alien?? The kind of Alien that can lay eggs in other creatures and then absorb their genes?" Bokan said in surprise. "But those guys in the swamp don't look much like Aliens. First of all, their heads are very small, and secondly, whether from the size or from the habits, they don't match very well."
"In order to reproduce, Aliens may allow larvae to parasitize with creatures in the swamp, and then evolve into Aliens that meet the special conditions of the swamp." Fang Senyan said with great certainty: "In the face of survival, everything must give way to it."
He looked around and found that the rest of the people still had a feeling of disbelief. Fang Senyan then said:
"Actually, I had already speculated that there were Aliens among the irritable beasts. You must not believe it, right? Although theoretically, Aliens can parasitize in any creature to evolve, their favorite larval hosts are still humanoids. This is beyond doubt."
