Bring Interstellar to the end of the world

Chapter 218 Hydralisk
click...

With the crisp sound of the pointer turning, the six barrels of the machine gun rotated rapidly, and the muzzle sprayed out narrow and long flames.

The fire wires mixed together due to the rapid rotation swelled into a cloud of fire, and the thick light hit the radiation scorpion's body like a torrential rain, causing the outer shell to crackle and hiss.

From this it can be seen that the 20mm caliber warhead fired by the machine cannon can still destroy the hard exoskeleton of the radiation scorpion.

This situation is very good, but what makes Tang Yan unhappy is that the vitality of the radiation scorpion is very tenacious. After a round of violent storm attacks, the huge pincers that were originally used to cut off the prey's body were used as a shield in front of the face.

Similar to the tongs of a crab, they can be said to be the hardest part of the radiation scorpion's body. The bullets fired by the machine gun can break through the hard shell of the body, but the effect is not so good when it is changed to the pincers.

However, his shooting still delayed the radiation scorpion's attack, beating the monster so hard that it dared not show its head.

Tang Yan thought about getting closer to make the bullets more powerful. He didn't believe that a radiated scorpion could not be dealt with after a box of bullets was discharged.

Facts have proved that this decision was a bit reckless. He was carrying Tychus' usual weapon, and he also committed Tychus' faults-sometimes he was impatient and not calm enough due to the battle situation.

When he advanced step by step with the machine cannon and was already less than two meters away from the Radiant Scorpion, the stinger that was curled up behind him suddenly rose up and turned into a black light and stabbed forward.

The faint cold light tore through the darkness of the night and came with a bad wind.

Tang Yan's reaction was quick. The moment he observed the reaction behind the Radiation Scorpion, the heat in his mind suddenly subsided, and he quickly turned to the side, trying to leave his current position.However, he overlooked one thing - the machine gun is very heavy, and it is not comparable to the C-14 Piercer II electromagnetic rifle.

When he turned sideways, the stinging needle of the radiant scorpion turned sideways and pierced along with his dodging motion.

Tang Yan saw that the radiation scorpion's tail sting could turn, so he injected himself with an enhanced version of stimulant in an emergency, trying to increase his dodge speed.

Unfortunately, he used the enhanced stimulant a little too late. Even though he tried hard to dodge, he was still hit by the sting needle. Fortunately, the point of contact moved from the chest to the shoulder armor.

There was a bang.

He was hit by a tyrannical force, even though he was wearing half a ton of power armor, his body was still driven by the force, and he took several steps back before stabilizing his posture.

"What a powerful force..." He lowered his head and looked at the place where the radiation scorpion hit him.

The shoulder armor, which even the anti-materiel sniper rifle couldn't break through, was dented inward, the paint leather was seriously peeling off, and small and dense air bubbles emerged from the fine steel structure.

"Does it still have a corrosive effect..."

His complexion is very ugly. You must know that he is wearing the Sons of Korha Power Armor. This is the enhanced power armor that is only qualified to be equipped by the elite guards directly under Mengsk the Great in the StarCraft world. The sting needle of the Radiation Scorpion can cause obvious damage. If it is replaced with ordinary CMC-300 power armor, it may have been injured by the sting needle.

The impact of the Radiant Scorpion's sting attack went beyond that. It also gave it the opportunity to counterattack. As Tang Yan retreated, it also changed from a defensive posture to an offensive posture, quickly crossing the buffer zone and waving two bullet-riddled bullets. Pincers attack.

While Tang Yan pushed his feet downward, the thrusters behind him ignited, and the recoil brought him to jump upwards, avoiding the claws of the radiation scorpion attacking the lower body, and jumped three meters away in one fell swoop.

blah blah blah...

There was a crisp impact sound, it was the radiation scorpion's many legs shaking the rocks on the ground.

He just landed on this side, and the radiation scorpion on the other side raised its pincers again, preparing to launch a second attack.

"Damn, this thing is much more difficult to deal with than the mire crab..." Tang Yan cursed in his mind.

The shell of the mud crab is also very hard, but not so hard. At least if you shoot continuously with the power of the P-45 electromagnetic pistol, you can still break the shell of the mud crab.

But what about the Radiant Scorpions?To break through the radiation scorpion's defense, even a heavy weapon like a machine gun must find its weakness. You can imagine how hard the radiation scorpion's exoskeleton is.

Experienced bounty hunters like that prefer to use mines to deal with Radiation Scorpions in most cases, because the part of Radiation Scorpions facing the ground is softer than the side facing the sky.

Behind him is a slope extending downwards, which is a terrain where spider mines can be deployed.

Just as Tang Yan stepped back quickly, trying to distance himself from the radiation scorpion, a huge monster flashed by.

puff.

A large group of black shadows flew over.

This group of black shadows hit the radiation scorpion who was chasing Tang Yan very accurately.

The black shadow is not a solid, but a liquid polymer with a certain viscosity, which is spread into a green carpet under the brilliance of the stars.

Tang Yan froze for a moment, his eyes swept to the side.

That black shadow looked a bit bloated, about the size of a small car, the bone plate like a knife and ax cast a dark shadow on the ground, and the blood-red pupils shone with a strange light.

"Dog meat?"

Gou Rou changed his posture at some point.

He didn't exchange for spider mines, he stopped suddenly, raised the cannon and pressed the trigger.

呲......

The bullet chain advanced, the barrel rotated rapidly, the expanding flames continued to light up everything around it, and the bullet rain fell on the Radiation Scorpion's shell again.

It was different from last time, there was a muffled popping noise coming from ahead, a large number of broken bone residues were lifted into the air, blood splashed outward, and the radiation scorpion made a creaking sound, which sounded very miserable.

Cooperating with the firing of the cannon, the dog meat continuously spewed out strong corrosive acid saliva.

This process lasted for a short time, and the radiating scorpion stopped screaming in pain, and the body that was blasted with flesh and blood finally collapsed, and the sting needle also limply slumped on the ground.

"died?"

Tang Yan winked at the dog meat.

That guy walked over with his somewhat bloated shell, stretched out his head and bumped the motionless radiant scorpion on the ground.

There was no response, and it did appear to be dead.

"Okay...it also has the effect of weakening the target's armor."

Gou Rou shook his body when he heard the words, looking very proud.

You must know that this is still the case without upgrading the iodic acid bile. Dog meat can already corrode the exoskeleton of the radiated scorpion. Once the iodic acid bile is upgraded and synchronized with the ability of the filthy bug, one can imagine how powerful it will become.

On the other side of the slope, there were constant gunshots and flames, as well as soldiers shouting.

Tang Yan didn't care about the battle over there, he threw the cannon on the ground, walked up to the face of the Radiation Scorpion that was bombarded by bullets, found a place that was not covered with green acid spit, and stretched out his palm.

With the next breath, the emotionless system prompt sounded.

"Extracting the target gene...completed."

"Retrieving zerg gene bank...done"

"Allocating system resources... done."

"Creating a genetic model of the parasite...completed."

"The Zerg module has been activated, and the Hydralisk's potential has been released."

Hydralisk, the classic unit of the Starcraft I era, Hydralisk has been unlocked.

Tang Yan turned his attention to the system space, swiped the interface to the insect evolutionary tree, and saw a branch above the cockroach highlighted.

Just like the voice prompt, it was the Hydralisk that unlocked it.

After the herbivorous sloth that originally looked like a caterpillar was transformed by the mastermind, its evolutionary map was severely distorted. This innocent creature was transformed into a vicious killer called a hydralisk.There are countless armor-piercing spine needles hidden in the bone plates under the Hydralisk's carapace, which can be fired at enemies attacking from the air or the ground.The Hydralisk has extremely strong muscle tissue (it has 4000 muscles, while humans only have 629), and can shoot its spine needles at amazing speeds. Even at the farthest range, it can penetrate a 2-centimeter-thick special steel plate.

Special steel plates... We must know that the special steel plates in the world of StarCraft are much stronger than the armor used by main battle tanks such as depleted uranium armor and ceramic armor in the current world.

"I don't know if the dog meat can break through the armor of the Type 99 main battle tank by switching to the Hydralisk posture?"

With this expectation in mind, he glanced at the cost of exchanging for the parasite carrying the Hydralisk gene—14000 reward points, seven times that of the parasite carrying the cockroach gene.

This...this is too exaggerated.

You must know that in the battle mode, the effect of the cockroach is not much weaker than that of the Hydralisk, but the cost...why is it so much worse?
The thought flashed through my mind as I remembered the data on marauders and siege tanks.

In the battle mode, in many cases, the combat effectiveness of the Marauder is not much worse than that of the siege tank, but what about the cost?One is about 5000, the other is 20W, the difference is 40 times.

From this point of view, the seven-fold difference in cost between a parasite carrying the Hydralisk gene and a parasite carrying the cockroach gene is nothing at all.

In the current battlefield environment, there is naturally no way to trick dog meat into eating the parasite carrying the Hydralisk gene.

Just when he was about to evacuate the system space, he suddenly discovered a new situation - on the cockroach branch below the hydralis branch, there was an inconspicuous NEW icon emitting breathing light.

"Hey, this is..." It seems that the genetic potential of the Radiation Scorpion is very strong, not only unlocking the Hydralisk, but also side items.

He then scrolled down the gene tree to the cockroach branch, and found a new upgrade item in the upper right corner of the cockroach image - iodic acid bile.

Really said Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived!He had only imagined how much the ability of dog meat would improve after upgrading the iodic acid bile before, but he didn't expect that the iodic acid bile would be unlocked after only a few minutes.

The form of iodic acid bile in the game is to increase the damage of cockroaches to light armored units by 8 points.

Considering the gap between the game and reality, the effect of iodic acid bile is manifested on dog meat, and the high probability is to increase the attack power, that is, the corrosiveness of strong acid solution.

He took another look at the cost of the parasite carrying the gene corresponding to iodic acid bile - 3200 reward points.

Hydralisk 14000, iodic acid bile 3200, add up to a total of 17200 reward points.

This reward value is a drop in the bucket compared to his current savings.

However, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, so there is no time to exchange him for genetic parasites and give dog meat a new form.

"Tang Yan, Tang Yan...you are..."

At this time, the shout from the front woke him up, and he quickly turned his attention from the system space back to the real world.

At some point Juniper crossed the ditch and came to his side.

The P-43 power armor covered Juniper's face, and he couldn't see the change in expression, but from the shouting just now, it can be seen from the location of his eyes that he is very afraid of the strange species that suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

"Don't be nervous, it's not the enemy."

Tang Yan did not explain why the dog meat became like this.

You must know that when the black hand mercenary group attacked the Maxim Cannery, many people, including the black hand mercenaries and pandaren legionnaires, saw the new form of dog meat, but it was only a short time, and the news about cockroaches had not spread. .

"It...it...was killed by you?" Juniper was referring to the corpse of the radiation scorpion on the ground.

"Otherwise?" Tang Yan replied casually, shaking off the radiation scorpion bodily fluids on his hands.

At this moment, there was a rustling sound from behind, and a broad black shadow rushed out of the ditch.

Juniper's attention was focused on the Death Radiation Scorpion, ignoring the danger behind it.

Tang Yan hesitated, but let out a roar. While moving his body to the side, the cannon was fired, and the continuous thick long line of fire poured on the black shadow, making screams, and the high-raised sting needle continued flutter.

Juniper was taken aback by Tang Yan's actions. He only woke up when he heard the painful neighing from behind. He quickly turned around and looked back. Seeing the Radiation Scorpion following him, he subconsciously backed away and stopped beside Tang Yan.

At this time, the dog meat continued to shake its body, and one after another corrosive acid saliva scattered on the radiation scorpion's face.

The shell squeaked, and the sound of bone cracking continued.

Under the dual action of the acid etching solution and large-caliber bullets, the radiant scorpion's howl became increasingly low and gradually became inaudible.

Juniper stared blankly at the scene in front of him.

When the gunfire stopped, the first-class reserve officer moved forward and poked the Radiant Scorpion's body with the 5.56MM machine gun in his hand. Seeing that there was no movement, he kicked the pair of scorpions with a faint cold light. Huge pincers.

Still no movement.

"Dead... dead?" He looked at the squad machine gun in his hand, and then at the machine gun in Tang Yan's hand, his eyes flickered slightly, and he looked a little inferior.

Tang Yan didn't pay attention to his reaction, and walked up the ramp with the cannon, looking towards the side of the ditch.

The Yunmeng mercenary regiment soldiers were chased by two radiation scorpions and ran all over the mountain. Zhang Tonglin fell on the big bluestone not far away, dead.There were tourniquets and gauze used for dressing scattered around him.

Speaking of which, this Juniper is quite courageous. He chose to risk crossing the ditch and seek help on the other side when his companions were scattered by the Radiation Scorpions and did not know how to deal with the current situation.

one two three four five six……

He counted in his heart, and within a short time, six mercenaries from the Yunmeng Mercenary Group who came with him had already died.

Under the full defense of the radiation scorpions, even machine guns couldn't easily kill them, let alone those weapons used by Juniper and others.

boom!
Just when he was in a daze, the soldier with the RPG on his back finally found a suitable position and shot a rocket at the single Radiation Scorpion behind him.

The explosion spread a cloud of flames, stones and withered grass splashed outwards, and the Radiation Scorpion was thrown over.

It was just a somersault...the tail was not broken, and the pincers were not broken.
