"Although I really don't want to admit it, our combat strength has really fallen to its lowest point," Chu Xuan murmured, lowering his head.
Among the six people present, Bawang was already gravely injured, and without treatment, he could die at any moment. Zhang Jie's arms had almost been completely corroded, and even if he had firearms, he couldn't use them. Zheng Zha was the strongest in terms of combat power, but his right arm had suffered a crush fracture, and his internal energy had been severely depleted, making his combat ability for the short term uncertain.
Zero Point was skilled in sniping, but the gun in his hand was more like a submachine gun, with insufficient power and accuracy to kill the Xenomorphs. Chu Xuan had excellent analytical and strategic abilities, but his skill with firearms was no better than Zero Point's or Bawang's. As for Zhan Lan, there was no need to elaborate—though she had trained for several days, her ability to use firearms was still far below that of even Chu Xuan.
Zheng Zha nodded and said,"Yes, we're all basically injured. Fortunately… we've killed all the Xenomorphs, and none have emerged from Room 15 in a long time, so it seems that only the Queen is left inside."
Chu Xuan said,"That Queen… could still kill all of us. We have no way to deal with it. The Queen is about three times the size of a regular Xenomorph. Let's assume its outer shell is only about one time thicker than that of a normal Xenomorph. That thickness would be hard for regular bullets to penetrate… Maybe heavy weapons, high-precision sniper rifles, or armor-piercing rounds could hurt it, but in the weapons store, we only found light firearms. Sigh, this was supposed to be a normal merchant ship."
Zheng Zha thought for a moment and said,"What if we can break its outer shell? Then we can all attack the exposed parts of its body with gunfire. Could we kill it that way?"
Chu Xuan looked at Zheng Zha in surprise and said,"I don't make illogical reasoning. If you can break its outer shell, then please provide enough evidence."
Zheng Zha helplessly picked up a regular spiral spike. Aside from the two spiral spikes with bombs attached, this was the only one still in good condition. He stood up, took a deep breath, and used his internal energy to throw it forcefully. As demonstrated before, the spike embedded deeply into the steel wall next to him.
Chu Xuan stared at the spike, sighed, and said,"You're not left-handed, but your right hand has already… It's my fault. If I had known you had such great combat power, I would never have let you suffer such severe injuries. Yes, as you said, as long as we can break the Queen's shell, we'll have a good chance of killing it. If your accuracy in throwing this thing were higher, hitting its head directly might even result in a one-hit kill."
Zheng Zha smiled bitterly and said,"I can't aim that accurately, after all, I'm using my left hand. Also, right now my stamina only allows me to throw one or two more times. Rather than risking a shot at its head, it's more practical to aim at its body."
"Indeed!" Chu Xuan nodded and said,"The success rate of hitting the body is higher. Our chances of killing the Queen… are about 30%. That's already good enough for us to take this risk. Now, let's divide the tasks. Zheng Zha, you will…"
Zheng Zha suddenly interrupted,"Wait, you only need to focus on your own team. Let's divide up the tasks—our side will focus on breaking the Queen's shell and providing fire support. Your team will handle protecting us and also provide fire support. How about that?"
Chu Xuan bit his finger and said,"Is this what you call an alliance? Fine, as long as we each stick to our responsibilities, I accept your proposal. But there's one thing to note: in that case, I won't have to design plans to protect you on purpose. We'll both equally share the danger."
Zheng Zha sneered,"That's exactly what I want. Why do we need your protection? Are we just waiting to be abandoned by you later? Ridiculous. We need your intelligence, and you need our strength. That's all there is to our relationship."
Chu Xuan said nothing more. He silently took out several weapons from the armory and explained the advantages and usage of each one to Zheng Zha's group. In the end, Zhan Lan chose the Desert Eagle with infinite ammo, which Zero Point wasn't using, while Zheng Zha picked up a semi-automatic rifle with slightly stronger short-range power.
After seeing Zheng Zha and the others armed, Chu Xuan said,"Actually, we've been pretty lucky. If we had waited a day or two longer, we wouldn't be facing just three Xenomorphs, but seven! Those four others are probably already parasitized. So we must kill the Queen as quickly as possible. If those four Xenomorphs hatch, in our current state, we're as good as dead."
"Another thing to note: once the Queen is injured and begins to bleed, we must kill it as quickly as possible. Xenomorph blood is highly corrosive, and the Queen is positioned at the edge of the ship. If its blood creates a large hole there, we could be sucked out into space. If that happens, we're done for!"
Zheng Zha silently admired him. Despite Chu Xuan's cold-blooded nature, he was undoubtedly a genius strategist. He noticed every tiny detail and calculated everyone's behavior and reactions. Although Zheng Zha didn't agree with some of Chu Xuan's methods, having such a person as an ally would definitely be a great asset to survival in a horror film world.
Chu Xuan continued,"Make sure to tie your pants legs tightly into your shoes, just like I did. We'll be walking through the Xenomorph nest, and although their secretions aren't strong acids, they are still corrosive. So, make sure to seal your pants and shoes well to prevent contact with those substances. Also, don't touch the walls carelessly. If you see a Xenomorph egg, which looks like a large oval object, shoot it immediately. Don't get close. That's basically all the advice I have; the rest will depend on how we adapt."
Finally, everyone double-checked their weapons. Zhang Jie and Bawang were no longer able to fight. Originally, Chu Xuan had intended for them to stay behind temporarily, but Zheng Zha was concerned that more Xenomorphs might bypass them and reach the armory, so he insisted that Zhang Jie join the main group. As for Bawang, he was a member of Chu Xuan's team, and according to Chu Xuan, he would have to remain behind, leaving his life to fate.
As Zheng Zha walked out of the armory, he glanced back at Bawang, who had slipped into a semi-conscious state. A sense of desolation filled his heart. He shifted his gaze back to the passage leading to Room 15, where a faint light gleamed. It was the Xenomorph nest... like the entrance to hell, leading to either death… or the end of a horror film.
