mother of all races

"Let's go."

Lin Xi tilted his head slightly, he listened carefully to the movements from the mechanical warriors and then said softly with a blank face

When the voice fell, he walked towards the exit.

Xavier and Arthur also followed behind him by coincidence.

"Actually, I think I can—"

It's just that Xavier was still somewhat unwilling. It turned its head, and its compound eyes stared straight at the direction from which the sound came.

Recalling those mechanical warriors, the long-lost hatred surged into its heart in an instant.

It subconsciously waved its forelimbs, but it didn't expect that its sharp sickle-like limbs would easily cut a gap in the isolation door between it and Lin Xi.

"..."

Arthur was staring at the door, and his tentacles moved slightly.

As mentioned before, Xavier's body hasn't changed much on the surface (it's still just a huge and hideous alien, a big bug) but after undergoing the transformation from the essence of the void, Transformation, now it is no longer the little pitiful little one who was dying because of the siege of mechanical soldiers.

Even Arthur's strength has been amazingly improved, watching Xavier cut the isolation door in front of Lin Xi.It also tentatively raised its forelimb and swiped hard at the already dilapidated isolation door.

And that isolation door was like a red-hot knife cutting through butter, and immediately a brand new gap appeared-and then.Under the watchful eyes of Xavier and Arthur, it slowly fell to one side, and finally fell to the ground with a "bang".

The huge movement made by the metal hitting the ground turned into aftermath invisible to the naked eye, directly centered on Lin Xi and others, and spread to other locations of the underground facility.

Sure enough, in the next second, Lin Xi could sense that the pace of those mechanical warriors became more rapid.

Xavier raised his forelegs high towards Arthur, and hissed with serious menace.

Arthur flinched suddenly.

"Xavier..."

Lin Xi had no choice but to stop Xavier softly.

"You don't have to be so harsh, Arthur needs some time to get used to his new body."

Lin Xi said.

Then he took a step forward as if nothing had happened, standing between Xavier and Arthur.

"And now we really need to pick up some speed."

Seeing that Xavier was about to start jealous because of Lin Xi's favoritism towards Arthur, Lin Xi spoke first.

Then, he pulled Lashaville's wings and continued to walk forward.

Xavier's wings quickly turned intense pink under Lin Xi's fingertips—it gave Arthur a menacing look, and then caught up with Lin Xi's footsteps.

Naturally, after seeing the scene in front of him, Arthur quickly shook his wings and quickly followed.

Under the leadership of Lin Xi, the other two alien species walked quickly through the intricate corridors of the underground facility with unimaginable speed.

And the reason why Lin Xi emphasized speeding up the pace to Xavier and Arthur was not entirely just to ease the relationship between them.

He really needs to control the rhythm of his progress, because just after he left the biological laboratory in the central area, the underground facility that had fallen into a dead state due to energy exhaustion seemed to have really revived...

However, in Lin Xi's view, this "resurrection" is more similar to returning to the light.

It was dark and silent, inside the concrete and metal structure full of corpses, there were crunching metal sounds everywhere, the pulleys and gears buried under the metal wall were constantly running, and the lamp tubes were also non-stop due to the instability of the current flashing.

Small, noisy voices filled the entire space, mixing with the footsteps of the mechanical warriors gradually approaching Lin Xi and the three.

According to the settings, the No. 23 biological experiment cabin, which should be able to last for a while, is shaking at this time, which is a very bad kind of shaking.Fragments of masonry and gravel just fell from the gaps between the supporting and connecting parts between various positions-even people who knew nothing about this underground facility could judge that these parts were overwhelmed.

Obviously, what someone hidden on the other side of the surveillance camera can do is not just to activate the mechanical warrior... That guy even gave the underground facility a self-destruction command directly at the expense of blood.

You must know that even when everyone rebelled 300 years ago and the experimental subjects were completely out of control, the survivors of the Providence at that time did not think of self-destructing the underground facilities here.

After all, after human beings came here, they built so many underground facilities with the limited resources on the spaceship, so that one day they could get out of the spaceship and live on this special planet.

Self-destructing... is a decision that should only be made in the most extreme of circumstances.

Accompanied by Lin Xi's prospect, various locations of the No. 23 biological test site collapsed, and dust gradually rose in the condensed air.

It seems that in the next second, this place will completely collapse and turn into a huge stone coffin, burying everything.

However, facing such a severe situation, Lin Xi looked quite calm.

There was still a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes showed his love for Xavier and Arthur, and his pace never changed from the moment he left—as if everything was under his control middle.

In a sense, this is true.

Lin Xi really has everything around her in control.After having a brand new body, his perception is so sharp that everything that happens in this underground facility is under his will.

"boom--"

"boom--"

"boom--"

One after another, the isolation doors smashed down heavily against the footsteps of Lin Xi and the three of them.

The electronic latches in the entire corridor were gradually failing, Lin Xi raised his eyebrows.

The ventilation pipe under the wall made a screeching sound, because the facility that was still feeding oxygen into the facility before was reversing desperately at an abnormally high speed, and a large amount of air was directly pumped out of the room.

Coupled with the fall of the fully-sealed metal isolation door, the oxygen inside the underground facility suddenly became extremely thin.

If ordinary people were here, it wouldn't take long for them to faint because they couldn't breathe.

However, for Lin Xi today, this measure is not a matter of concern at all.

——In fact, even breathing itself is not a necessary condition for him.

He just subconsciously continued all the physiological reactions in his memory because he still retained a human body.

Including heartbeat and breathing.

Perhaps it was vaguely aware that Lin Xi's state was completely different from ordinary intruders. Just as Lin Xi led Xavier and Arthur gradually approaching the exit of the outside world, dart-shaped objects suddenly popped up from the hidden places on both sides of the passage. Laser emission port.

Until this time, Lin Xi's footsteps stopped slightly.

Almost at the same time as Lin Xi stopped, the laser beams were silently shooting out extremely hot laser beams

"I thought they were going to be red..."

At the moment when those laser beams formed a fine grid and gradually moved towards the three of them, Lin Xi heard Xavier whisper behind him.

"Only in TV shows, this laser-cut grid for defense is basically invisible."

Lin Xi explained to Xavier.

Otherwise, how could these laser line speeds cut the intruders into scorched black flesh that could not even flow blood without the intruders noticing?

Of course, the so-called invisibility is only for humans. In Lin Xi's current view, those lasers that humans cannot detect are simply extremely obvious.

As for the solution to them, it is also very simple——

Lin Xi stood at the end of the corridor, unhurriedly raised his hand towards the laser beam that was approaching them, and then his fingertips turned slightly red because suddenly a something like a drop of blood...

It was as if Lin Xi was accidentally injured before.He was supposed to bleed, but that drop of "blood" kept condensing on Lin Xi's fingertips, without any intention of falling.

In the next second, the drop of blood started to squirm like that.

Aware of this slight movement, Arthur opened his eyes wide, looking curiously at the red "blood" that was constantly wriggling and elongated at Lin Xi's fingertips.

Not long ago, when Arthur was still a corpse, Lin Xi used this wriggling red mucus to bring him back to the world.

And what Lin Xi did next showed very clearly that this kind of slime is not only used for resurrection and body transformation, it may also become a very simple and convenient weapon——

The red mucus that escaped from Lin Xi's body suddenly moved at an alarming speed.Like a red bullet, the "blood" directly crossed those fine metal grids, and then flew directly towards the laser emission port

"Crack..."

The moment it approached the laser emission port, the red slime split into two, and then they directly submerged into the cold and well-known metal terminal.

Standing at Lin Xi's current position, one can clearly hear the laser weapons made by humans make a crisp sound

Immediately afterwards, those incomparably hot laser beams disappeared, and a wisp of blue smoke emerged from those incomparably precise launch ports...

Lin Xi didn't stop, he walked forward lightly.

Almost at the moment when he crossed the corridor, there was a louder rubbing sound from behind him. It sounded like countless cockroaches rubbing against the metal surface, but Lin Xi knew very well that it was not some cockroach that could make such a sound , but the kind of metal jellyfish that is more disgusting than cockroaches.

With a thought in Lin Xi's mind, two drops of scarlet mucus seeped out from the gap of the laser emission port in an instant, and then squirmed quickly all the way, catching up with Lin Xi's soles.

The moment it touched Lin Xi's skin, the mucus immediately sank into Lin Xi's body.

Immediately afterwards, the mechanical launch port that was completely destroyed by Lin Xi a few seconds ago suddenly vibrated

The scarlet and extremely hot high-temperature laser shot out directly from the laser emission port at a linear speed, and pushed towards the mechanical warriors who followed Lin Xi.

"Look, now it's red."

Lin Xi turned her head, looked at Xavier, then smiled and said.

"Just like the TV you watch..."

He added.

Xavier turned his head to look at the laser beam transformed by Lin Xi, and something seemed to flicker slightly in his scarlet pupils.

A gentle and sweet mood was immediately transmitted to the bottom of Lin Xi's heart along the close spiritual connection between the two.

Lin Xi's smile deepened instantly.

Compared with Lin Xi and Xavier who looked at each other and smiled, Arthur who really cared about the red laser beam and those mechanical soldiers was ignorant.

It looked back at those mechanical warriors curiously—after the smooth hemispherical shells of those robots came into contact with the laser, a series of extraordinarily dazzling sparks burst out immediately.

The two mechanical warriors who had no time to escape fell down first, and the display screen inside their helmets flashed the word malfunction, and then they were cut into many pieces in the crackling electric sparks, and before they died, they caused two balls of Small explosion.

And their kind, under the cover of the explosion, threw several miniature bombs towards the laser launch port.

After several failed attempts, the mechanical warriors finally broke the laser weapons and broke through the corridor.

It's just that when they reached the other end of the corridor, the backs of the three of Lin Xi had already disappeared.

……

"Boom..."

There was another heavy explosion.

Lin Xi paused, looked up and quickly glanced at the support structure that kept dropping gravel, and then continued to walk forward.

The frame structure supporting the entire underground facility can only be described as crumbling.

After the central area is blasted, these frame structures will loosen and collapse in chains.This underground facility has ushered in the end of its own life - but it has nothing to do with Lin Xi and others.

Relying on the extraordinarily superior mobility of the alien species, it didn't take long for Lin Xi, Xavier, and Arthur to come to the metal secret room where they had temporarily avoided the storm before entering the underground facility.

They only need to open the round metal door, and they can leave the underground facility.

However, at this very moment...

Lin Xi, who had been walking step by step, completely stepping on his own rhythm, suddenly stopped his footsteps

"Lin Xi? What's the matter—"

Xavier had already tore open the circular airtight door, and a large amount of sand and dust poured down from the entrance in an instant.

Sensing Lin Xi's pause, Xavier immediately asked with concern.

Lin Xi shook his head silently to indicate that there was no major problem. He turned around and walked straight to the corner of the metal secret room.

Before they entered the underground facility, Lin Xi had abandoned the electronic brain that opened the door for them and had a very suspicious origin here.

But now he took the initiative to approach that electronic brain.

Lin Xi picked it up.

He carefully stared at the electronic brain in his hand that had become extremely fragile due to the previous component failure.Gradually, there was a trace of deep solemnity in his eyes.

"...I will save you. I promise you, I will set you free."

Lin Xi said seriously.

It was as if there was some extremely important special person opposite him.

However, in the face of Lin Xi's solemn promise, the electronic brain in his hand remained silent and did not give him any response.

Lin Xi didn't care.

He carefully put the computer back in the corner and walked towards the exit.

However, if it had been according to the original plan, he shouldn't have had this final conversation with the electronic brain.

What he was delayed was only a very short period of time, but just this short period of time was enough for several mechanical warriors following from other passages to find him.

At the moment when Lin Xi was about to leave, a few slender metal tentacles silently reached out to Lin Xi from a dark direction.

One of the tentacles accurately wrapped around Lin Xi's ankle and firmly fixed him in place.

Lin Xi paused.

He frowned and looked back to his feet.

It wasn't until this time that the mechanical warrior from Del Company slowly showed its shape in the air...

Their special coating allows them to blend in perfectly with their surroundings.

In fact, that's why they're called ghosts.

They can be invisible at any time, and they can be visible at any time. With their powerful metal tentacles and killing procedures, their force value has reached the limit that human beings can imagine.

However, at this moment... when they faced Lin Xi, they looked a little clumsy and weak.

For example, now, the two mechanical warriors are trying to pull Lin Xi back to the No. 23 biological experiment field.According to the internal programming, they should have successfully killed Lin Xi directly by relying on the collapsing test site.

But during the manipulation process, before they had time to withdraw their metal tentacles, the two shadows had already jumped up high.

The extremely sharp limbs easily penetrated the hemispherical head of the mechanical display.

If Xavier and Arthur cut that incredibly thick metal partition door like cutting butter, now, when they pierced the mechanical warrior's head with their worm limbs, it was like cutting a piece with a beautiful silver knife. mousse.

The screens of those mechanical warriors suddenly flashed a piece of garbled code, and then instantly turned into darkness.

Insect limbs penetrate directly from the top of their heads and emerge from the tentacle junction below them.

The sticky engine oil and some plasma were like the blood of these mechanical creations, dripping to the ground.

The tentacles wrapped around Lin Xi's ankle lost all strength in an instant, and then fell limply to the ground.

Even so, the movements of Xavier and Arthur still did not stagnate.They straightened their bodies high, cutting and stabbing non-stop in the air with their forelimbs raised.

This scene looked a bit funny, but after a few seconds, all the positions that Lin Xi and Arthur had cut and stabbed, slowly emerged the disgusting semicircular figure of the mechanical warrior

The cloaking of these killing machines is being forcibly removed... as they have suffered damage beyond repairable loads.

Most of the mechanical warriors have already lost their fighting ability in the first time, and even the mechanical warriors that escaped the first round of killing will end badly.

The incomparably exquisite and advanced stealth equipment on them has completely failed. In the eyes of Xavier and Arthur, this group of mechanical warriors is at best a white sheet on their heads.

The special visual receptors of different species prevent them from being confused by the mechanical warrior's invisibility paint at all.

In just a few tens of seconds, all the mechanical soldiers who rushed to the metal secret room have lost their combat capabilities.

Xavier immediately put away his worm limbs and returned to Lin Xi's side.

It looked at Lin Xi triumphantly, waiting for Lin Xi's praise.

Only Arthur was overjoyed, still holding up his brand new worm limbs, poking the group of dead mechanical warriors non-stop.Its excited and happy appearance inexplicably reminded Lin Xi of those children who were so happy because of toys before Christmas.

Looking at Arthur like this, Xavier couldn't help showing a little contempt, but then his heart suddenly tightened, and he immediately restrained the dissatisfaction on his face, and then turned his head carefully to look at Lin Xi's current appearance.

Sensing its gaze, Lin Xi turned her head to Xavier and showed a faint wry smile.

"There was a problem with Arthur's previous evolution. You and I both know what happened... It's not to blame for the current appearance. After it evolves again, everything will be fine."

"But……"

Xavier shook the tentacles on his head in dissatisfaction. It wanted to say something more, but Lin Xi suddenly made a gesture to make it quiet.

Immediately, a sound so slight that neither instruments nor humans could hear it was transmitted to Lin Xi's perception.

Lin Xi's face changed, and he immediately reached out and grabbed Arthur, and then forcibly dragged Arthur and Xavier out of the hole together.

The scenery outside the entrance was completely different from when they came in. The violent storm almost changed the terrain of the entire area.

It's just that Lin Xi couldn't care less about exploring the surrounding environment at this time.The vibration from the ground made him instinctively feel the danger.

Everything happened so quickly and so naturally.

Xavier could naturally feel the danger omen that Lin Xi could feel—almost the moment it left the cave, its wings spread out suddenly.

Xavier hugged Lin Xi tightly like that.

"Get hold of—"

It exhorted gently.

Immediately afterwards, it randomly stretched out one hind leg and hooked Arthur's neck with its tarsi.

Its body jumped in the air, and its huge wings flapped vigorously behind its back.

Lin Xi, who was imprisoned in Xavier's arms, only felt his body lighten... Then, he flew up with Xavier.

Lin Xi could swear that at that moment he saw the most beautiful wings he had ever seen in his life.

The incomparably brilliant light from the alien planet fell on Xavier's wings, reflecting a jewel-like magnificence.

The gentle wind brushed over Xavier's wingtips, bringing the strong hormones emanating from this giant insect to the tip of Lin Xi's nose.

Lin Xi could feel that her body became very light in an instant, but the arms holding him were so firm and stable.

In that short moment, Lin Xi seemed to have fallen into a fantasy dream, he was wrapped by the brilliant clouds, and he was touched by the burning love.

Even his own heart seemed to float in this short moment.

This dizzy feeling lasted for quite a while before Lin Xi gradually recovered.

Only then did he discover that the newly evolved magnificent wings of Xavier actually disdain the flying speed of the pair of thick and metallic elytra it had before.

In just a moment, Xavier had already taken Lin Xi and Arthur flying far away.

Behind them, a huge roar resounded through the sky and the earth.Then came the rising smoke and the whistling wind.

Lin Xi looked over Xavier's shoulder in that direction from a distance.

He was not surprised to see that the underground facility he was in before collapsed for hundreds of meters around the entire area.

Flying sand and rocks, heaven and earth cracking...

That scene looked a little bit apocalyptic...

Of course, in addition to the completely collapsed underground facilities, the more frightening thing is actually located far away on the horizon. There is obviously no storm, but a layer of smoke and dust is faintly rising in that direction.

Lin Xi opened her eyes wide, staring straight at the smoke...

That's not actually a product of nature.

That was the flying dust caused by countless mechanical warriors moving at high speed.

Even at such a distance, Lin Xi could tell that the number of those mechanical warriors was quite terrifying. He even doubted whether the opponent had used so many mechanical warriors when attacking the Helios.

In fact, when I think about it seriously, those hellish days didn't seem to be too long.

Lin Xi still remembered how she was disgraced and embarrassed by the killing machines made by humans, and even almost died.

The sense of trembling that those mechanical warriors brought to him has been lingering in his heart not long ago.

But at this moment, looking at the figures of those mechanical warriors, Lin Xi's heart was extremely peaceful.

The fear and embarrassment of the past seemed to be a thing of the previous life.

Lin Xi couldn't help raising her hand to look at her thin and slender fingers.

These fingers look exactly like real humans.

But Lin Xi knew very well in his heart that as long as he wanted, he could easily tear off the seemingly indestructible hemispherical masks of those mechanical soldiers with both hands like Xavier and Arthur.

He can kill those damn mechanical warriors, but at this moment, what he really wants to kill is not just these dumb machines.

……

"Lin Xi"

It was as if he could sense the emotional changes in Lin Xi's heart. At this moment, Lin Xi felt that Xavier hugged him tighter.

"What's wrong?" Lin Xi asked.

Xavier lowered his head slightly and looked at Lin Xi.

"Can I drop Arthur? It's kind of heavy."

After a while, Lin Xi heard Xavier dryly asking.
