Chapter 38: The Trap test
Chu Xuan remained silent and did not answer. He looked indifferent, as if he had nothing to say or seemed disdainful of answering.
Chu Xuan, your answer is related to whether the team can unite and survive the horror movie. Anyway, please explain it to us! "Due to Chu Xuan's performance, the atmosphere froze for a moment, and Wang Zongchao interrupted Zheng Zha, who was already restless.
Chu Xuan sighed and still didn't answer. He just bent down and continued the action interrupted by Li Shuaixi. He pushed a heavy instrument against the wall below the isolation wall, then pressed the button. The isolation wall lowered, but when it reached a height of more than half a meter above the ground, the instrument got stuck and couldn't be lowered anymore.
Upon seeing this scene, Zheng Zha was stunned, while Li Shuaixi's face was covered in ashes.
I said I would leave you a way to escape! The alien is nearly three meters tall and has an exoskeleton, which is absolutely impossible to reach. And you only need to bend down and pounce forward while running to get there. I didn't plan to open the barrier after you ran back, it was just a misunderstanding on your own, "Chu Xuan said coldly.
As soon as these words were spoken, Li Shuaixi had an extra bullet hole on his left forearm holding the combination bomb. The sound of the gunshot was almost synchronized with the explosion. In severe pain, the combination bomb fell out of his hand and rolled on the ground, out of his control amid Li Shuaixi's screams.
One shot worked, Zero Point stepped forward and pressed the Desert Eagle against Li Shuai Xi's forehead, saying coldly, "Although it was a misunderstanding, I absolutely cannot tolerate becoming a comrade in arms with someone who threw a grenade at one of my own people because of a little misunderstanding!" At this moment, Zero Point's gun pressing against Li Shuai Xi's head was even tighter, and he was about to shoot.
No, no... don't kill me, I didn't mean to blow you up... "Seeing this situation, Li Shuaixi desperately tried to defend himself. This young man, who had previously believed that Chu Xuan wanted to abandon him, was able to persist with a resentful attitude and not beg for mercy. However, after realizing that all of this was just his attempt to control the belly of a gentleman with a petty heart, his courage actually dissipated.
What's your plan? "Chu Xuan asked as he adjusted his glasses.
I really didn't mean to blow you up... I just wanted to throw the grenade behind you and escape on my own while you were panicked by the explosion. I just noticed that there is a hibernation chamber on the spaceship's floor plan, and I want to sleep inside and wait for the spaceship to automatically return to Earth, so that the Earth government can use their army to fight against the aliens! Although I know it's not appropriate to do so,... I beg you, even if I misunderstood that you didn't leave me a way out, I still want to live... even if there is only a little hope. "Li Shuaixi's forehead, held by the Desert Eagle, was sweating profusely, but he continued to defend himself.
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but admire this young man. In this situation, they were able to see the loophole in Chu Xuan's words (although it was also a misunderstanding), and even came up with a plan to give themselves a high chance of survival.
You are indeed very intelligent, even though you are still the wisdom of mortals! "After listening to Li Shuaixi's words, Chu Xuan gave an evaluation and explained," Although I have considered the plan to use the Earth's army to deal with the aliens when returning to Earth, from the aliens' actions of sending bait, we are not just seen as prey, but as a major threat, and it is absolutely impossible to let us go. And the neighboring layer cannot completely block the aliens. Their blood is extremely strong acid. I remember in the sequel horror movie Alien 4, they escaped from the cage by the strong corrosiveness of their blood. If they also use the same method to corrode and penetrate this isolation layer... I think after entering hibernation, they may never wake up again, or when we wake up, we may face a mass of flesh that is rushing towards our face, and the aliens will parasitize inside our bodies.
Moreover, what's even worse is that if the escaping robot contacts the company, judging from the company's actions in the original Alien series movies, they will inevitably leave living aliens for research. Our mission to eliminate aliens is even more impossible to achieve, and even we ourselves will fall into the hands of the company
At this moment, the Overlord interjected in slightly awkward Chinese: "I don't want to leave my fate to the unknown to decide. What if we can't wake up once we fall asleep? Compared to that, I hope to be able to grasp my own future. Even if it's death, it's my choice to fight and die, rather than relying on possible fate to give me life.
As for this kid, since he doesn't want to be used as bait, why don't we just kill him... By the way... killing someone will deduct points, so why don't we cut off his limbs and throw him into the passage? Anyway, with his flesh and blood, it's enough to attract aliens
At the last sentence, the expression on the Tyrant's face was visibly fierce. After listening to the bloody disposal methods of the tyrant, Zheng Zha was shocked, but he didn't know what to say to stop him. After all, Li Shuaixi's behavior was too bad.
So, he looked at Wang Zongchao and subconsciously believed that the other party must have an appropriate way of handling it.
This kind of handling is not appropriate! "Wang Zongchao shook his head." Even if his limbs are severed, as long as he is alive, there is a possibility of being parasitized and giving birth to a new alien
If we are unable to keep the attracted alien, I will guarantee to kill him! "Zero said coldly.
Kill him, and your 1000 points will be gone. Even if you can make him half dead and die at the touch of the alien, how can you guarantee that the main god thinks you killed him or the alien killed him? "Wang Zongchao still shook his head.
Anyway, all we need to do is attract the alien. Then I suggest extracting a quarter of his blood and using it to attract the alien. Then, place him in a relatively safe hibernation chamber, where his body consumption is extremely low. Even if he loses so much blood, he can still survive. This way, we can achieve the goal of attracting the alien, avoid the risk of giving birth to new aliens, and not deduct points for killing companions
This kind of handling is relatively safe, but should we just let that kid go like this? "The bully frowned and glanced at Li Shuaixi. This tough guy still couldn't let go of this attempt to kill his companion.
At this time, Wang Zongchao had already stepped forward, first signaled Zero to put the gun away, and then used spray to stop the bleeding of the gunshot wound on Li Shuaixi's arm.
Then he spoke up, "Anyway, since we've dealt with it this way, why don't we give him another chance
Chu Xuan remained silent but lost in thought, only listening to Wang Zongchao say, "In terms of military regulations or mercenary behavior, Li Shuai Xi's behavior can be called a 'death' word. However, as a newcomer who has not received any military training but has to face the fear of life and death, his behavior is understandable.
Moreover, he has demonstrated excellent intelligence and psychological resilience, but unfortunately he had bad luck. In fact, if he had come in earlier, he could have even performed outstandingly in a lower difficulty biochemical crisis.
Perhaps everyone now thinks he is a coward, a burden, and a dangerous element, but who can be sure that he will not become an indispensable part of us in the future?
Take Zheng Zha as an example, he is undoubtedly an important force in our team now, even more important than the Zero Point Overlord and their team. But who knows, in the previous horror movie, he was just a white-collar worker who knew nothing, and he once put his companions in danger because of a reckless sentence, and I lost a palm because of it. If Zhang Jie and I had been a little ruthless at that time, we would have lost an important partner because of it
Upon hearing this, Li Shuaixi was extremely grateful. This young man had been almost devastated by the fear of death and the rejection of his companions since he inexplicably came to this horror film. Now, the strongest member of the team was speaking for him at the moment of life and death. In his excitement, he even shed tears. After hearing these words, Zheng Zha and Mou Gang felt somewhat ashamed when recalling the past, while Zhang Jie and Ba Wang were somewhat indifferent. However, Zero Point remained cold and indifferent, and I don't know what he was thinking.
Chu Xuan nodded and said, "No matter how skilled I am in layout, after all, I am still a newcomer. Many times, as a senior, you undoubtedly have more say. In that case, Li Shuaixi is entirely up to you to handle
Wang Zongchao slightly praised Chu Xuan's attitude. This person clearly knows how to handle the situation. Although with his tacit approval, the layout of the team is clearly led by him, he still knows very well who actually holds the ultimate decision-making power of the team.
If he really overtakes himself and conflicts with himself, the experienced ones will certainly not listen to him, and even Zero Point and Overlord are unlikely to stand by his side, after all, his intelligence and strategy are only just beginning to emerge and still need to be proven, while his military power has already penetrated deep into people's hearts.
At present, Wang Zongchao also feels uncomfortable with Chu Xuan's cold-blooded style of using people as chess players like humanoid computers. Regarding the handling and arrangement of Li Shuaixi, Wang Zongchao understood that Chu Xuan could never turn a blind eye to the resentment in Li Shuaixi's eyes. However, in this situation, he chose not to explain his arrangements clearly to him, but instead let this person sink into a desperate situation under the misunderstanding. His intention was sinister, with a hidden intention of testing Li Shuaixi. If he failed the test, he would eliminate the dangerous elements in the team in advance!
Even if you have a gun in your hand, it's best not to act rashly before pulling the distance to more than ten meters! "This was Chu Xuan's warning to Zero at the beginning. Knowing his own abilities, he was well aware that Li Shuaixi couldn't turn the sky in front of him, so he could confidently set a trap based on this.
However, Wang Zongchao has no intention of turning against him yet, because although his style makes him uncomfortable, there is no sign of it being detrimental to the team. From another perspective, it is also meaningful to eliminate the unstable factors in the team. Besides, what I am best at is my individual combat power and some individual tactical skills. As for strategic planning, overall arrangement, and precise grasp of every factor on the battlefield, I cannot compare to the group of humanoid computers in the military. Since Chu Xuan is such a type of person, why not let Xian arrange these things for him. And if he can let him play to his strengths, he is also confident that he cannot afford to calculate his own cost!
So Wang Zongchao gave Li Shuaixi a meaningful look and said, "So, as I said, we'll draw a quarter of your blood later and send you to the hibernation chamber to rest. It's still very safe there for now. If we can defeat the alien, you can safely reach the main god space when you wake up
Li Shuaixi lost a lot of blood, but still struggled to stand up. He first bowed to everyone around him, including Chu Xuan and Bawang. With each bow, he sincerely said "I'm sorry".
Finally, he bowed to Wang Zongchao with utmost respect, lifted his face still covered in cold sweat and tears, and said solemnly to Wang Zongchao, "I'm sorry... I can't control myself. I couldn't control myself. I was scared... I'm a bastard... I'm a loser! I'm a garbage... I really deserve to die
But you have said so many good words for me, this damn garbage... Thank you... You respect me, and I cannot let you down. I will not make the same mistake again
Immediately afterwards, he wiped away his tears. With gritted teeth and disregarding his injuries, he raised his head and chest, saluted Chu Xuan with an non-standard but very straight military salute, and asked, "Colonel, new recruit Li Shuaixi is coming to report. Please tell me the specific plan you have arranged for me
The emotional excitement stirred up a blood on his face, mixed with sweat and tears, emitting a translucent luster that even gave his temperament a renewed and elevated aura. Seeing this situation, Wang Zongchao nodded slightly but didn't show much expression, just turned around and walked away.
