Sword and Magic and Taxi

The white eggs in front of him reminded Zhao Mai of the facehugger in classic science fiction movies. One is ejected from the egg, grabs the human face through the four pairs of slender limbs on the side, wraps its tail around the neck, and at the same time injects paralyzing toxins and real eggs into the host's mouth. Eventually, the eggs will grow in the host's body, absorb the host's genetic fragments, gain the host's advantages in the evolutionary process, and finally break out.

But those are all movies. When you actually see the insect eggs, you can't really take the description in the movie as the truth. The aliens in the movie are pretty good, they look like perfect assassins and feel a bit like special forces. But if this thing really only has the speed of a cheetah, the strength of a bear, the ferocity of a piranha, the cunning of a fox, and the patience of a crocodile... it would really be difficult to defeat humans, let alone dominate the universe.

A ball of green light emitted from the white egg, hit Zhao Mai's field, and then couldn't move any further. Diana was startled, and Susan was surprised: Isn't this the Death Star weakening curse? Why, these insect eggs can also do it?

Zhao Mai suddenly realized that he had an aura of mental retardation! As long as the opponent becomes a fool, of course he will win! Under the green light, all kinds of flowers changed their tricks and showed off the lower limit. If it failed, I had to forgive it. The faith is still there, but after all, the IQ has not been recharged. This reason for failure is sufficient.

The white facehugger shot out from the top of the egg and glided in Susan's direction. Diana raised the Vulcan Sword, preparing to chop it down at the subatomic level, Colossus prepared his fists, and Susan raised her hands, with the high-energy particle blaster ready to go. Why bother... Zhao Mai stretched out his hand, grabbed the tail of the facehugger, and pulled it over.

The facehugger has a stick-like protrusion on its abdomen that is constantly expanding and contracting. This is its ovipositor, the kind that sticks into its throat. Hey... so disgusting. Diana and Susan both looked at the monster in Zhao Mai's hands with disgust. The facehugger struggled hard, waving its claws and tail constantly, trying to break free from Zhao Mai's grasp. It was best to climb up his arm and onto his face. Its twisting was fast, powerful, and very sudden, but Zhao Mai's power suppressed it in all aspects, making its efforts in vain. Therefore, the facehugger secretes lubricating mucus from various parts of its body to reduce friction and make it easier to break free from narrow cracks.

Helpless, Zhao Mai's arm has begun to transform into essence, slowly covering it and submerging the facehugger. The facehugger struggled hard, but like a bug trapped in rosin, it ended up turning into an amber fossil. Diana rolled her eyes. She recognized Zhao Mai again, but that didn't mean she would become happy when she saw his inhumanity. Finish it as soon as possible. She turned her back, hugged Susan's shoulders and turned her head: Children, don't watch.

Why? The invisible woman pouted, looking like she was unhappy and wanted to cause trouble. Soon, there was a squeaking sound, which was very similar to the sound of muscles and bones breaking when an animal shell is torn open, or the sound of chewing teeth. Colossus also turned around, his metal face with a patina color, and said to the invisible woman seriously: Listen to your sister, that's right.

Zhao Mai was busy for a while, and when he looked again, the facehugger had completely disappeared. This kind of creature is highly evolved and can learn the strengths of other creatures for its own use. However, its learning is only from the egg to larvae stage, and the time and scope are narrower. It is not as good as the Z-worm, which can learn in all stages, in all directions, and in all species. Of course, Zhao Mai designed the Z-worms to form the entire ecological environment, and the bugs in front of him were just assassins and warriors, a group of simple killers. Functions always serve a purpose and this will not change.

Well, I have an idea. Zhao Mai said: These bugs never kill each other, and one egg will not attack another egg, so I can turn everyone's breath into eggs. Susan, you are around everyone Is it okay to set up an information shielding wall to form a double protection?

Of course, don't worry! I will never let these bugs crawl on my face!

In addition to these two things, there is another thing that must be guarded against, and that is the powerful corrosive liquid of insects. Only using strong acid to describe that substance is one-sided, it does not only act on metals. If Saruman's gunpowder is a solid energy and rule breaker, then the bug's corrosive fluid is a variant of Saruman's gunpowder in the liquid realm. In addition to destroying matter, it also has varying degrees of destructive effects on energy fields, magic arrays, elements, etc. If the amount is large enough, this corrosive liquid may also destroy the function of the wool ball, which Zhao Mai has to guard against.

The body of the facehugger has a special material structure that can avoid this kind of corrosion damage, and the same principle applies to the shell of the egg. Zhao Mai left the source material all the way, ordered it to imitate this structure, and then covered the wool ball to form a layer of protection.

Everyone carefully passed through the eggs, all of them closed their mouths and walked softly, and they also tried to avoid touching the eggs. The white egg bed under his feet was sticky and slippery, so Colossus had to be especially careful. He was heavy, huge, and relatively clumsy, so Diana and Susan held him on the left and right to prevent him from accidentally slipping. fall.

Zhao Mai walked at the front, exuding pheromones along the way, which gave the eggs a wrong feeling and regarded the group of people as the same kind. He also needs to choose the best path to take, while leaving the source material to protect the ball of yarn. These source materials will eventually form soil, and then the eggs will be slowly assimilated from the cellular level until the race is assimilated.

About halfway through, Zhao Mai took everyone and suddenly made a turn. In front of them, many of the insect eggs here were open, and the facehuggers inside were gone. There were also several overturned insect eggs, and in the middle was a corpse that was so corroded that the face could not be seen clearly.

Not long after his death, there were still many pieces of clothing on the wreckage. It could be seen that it was a dark blue tights and a red cape, which reminded people of Superman. Mike, this... Diana was a little in disbelief: Superman's abilities are far greater than these bugs, it can't really be him, right?

I don't hope this is the case, but theoretically it could be him. Although he is very strong, don't forget that the green light here has the effect of weakening the ability. You can't feel it in my field, but Superman can't. . It seems that the green light weakens him particularly severely. I have seen him many times, and every time he has to calculate the time to avoid the time when the Death Star rises, so as to arrange his action plan.

If it's him, we can't let him die here like this, we must at least bury him. Mike, if you use your psychic powers to hold his body, it won't be corroded, right?

Well, no matter who this is, I have to take him away first. These corrosive fluids have damaged the corpse too badly, and now I can only tell that it is an alien corpse. I don't have Superman's cell characteristics, so I can't Cross comparison. Let me try if I can be resurrected... No, in addition to the material level, these corrosive liquids cause more serious damage to energy and soul. Zhao Mai floated the corpse in the air and followed the team. Let's get out of here as quickly as possible, I have an ominous feeling.

I hope I don’t encounter an alien modeled after Superman...
