Alien Relic Hunter

At this critical moment, two red laser beams suddenly fell from the sky, directly piercing the vital points of the two snow dragons. The huge bodies slammed to the ground heavily, stirring up a large amount of broken snow!

Ke Lan looked up and saw a Raven-class high-speed fighter hovering directly above them. It was the main weapon Bovar II equipped with the Raven-class that had just killed the two snow dragons. type laser cannon.

This is Unit 1019 of the 9th Quick Response Team of Ark's 4th Cruise Fleet. It is performing search and rescue mission 847. The unknown persons below please send your identification code within 20 seconds. If the communication equipment is damaged, please wave your left hand. After signaling three times, he squatted on the ground with his head in his hands——

Rescue team? Why did it come so soon? Ke Lan was stunned for a moment, but he still passed on his identification code. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if the pilot judged it as a non-friendly unit.

Noah's Ark is not the only human force on Alpha Planet. In the past fifty years, more than 100,000 people may have left the Ark. Among these people, some were convicted of deportation, some were death row inmates who escaped from prison, and some were bankrupts who had no other choice... In addition to these forced ones, there were also those who left the Ark voluntarily: explorers, speculators, and the concept of the Ark. Totally out of touch social activist and so on.

On the Ark, these people who left had a unified name-exiles.

Without the protection of the Ark, it is very difficult for the exiles to survive on the crisis-ridden Alpha Planet. More than 70% of the exiles cannot survive the first night after leaving the Ark, and among the remaining people, only one can survive for a month. It is even rarer.

Anyone who can survive outside the Ark for a long time must have strong strength and careful thinking. Of course, the most important thing is good luck.

The vast majority of the exiles hate Ark, and a small group of people are even keen on various sabotage actions against Ark. If the pilot of a fighter jet thinks that he is an exile, Ke Lan believes that he will definitely not do anything. Press the fire button hesitantly.

The identification code has been confirmed - After a short pause, the cold mechanical voice turned into the driver's own voice, Do you still have the ability to move? I will lower the rope ladder and take you to the nearest transfer station. .”

Wait a minute, we still have wounded people inside the ruins! Ke Lan quickly turned on the radio and said to the fighter pilot.

Injured? In the ruins? Aren't you hunters exploring the ruins of A-087? Didn't you encounter a crash? The pilot's tone was full of doubts.

Unlucky, the plane crashed directly into the ruins, and we finally found the exit. Ke Lan said truthfully.

Okay, report the casualties, and I will ask the transfer station to arrange medical personnel and facilities.

A transport plane pilot and a hunter died, and the bodies cannot be recovered for the time being. One hunter was seriously injured and comatose, with massive blood loss, and urgently needed amputation surgery. A fourth-level biochemically modified person was seriously injured, multiple organs needed to be replaced, and the main power furnace was lost. , two others were poisoned, and their current conditions are stable.

I understand, my fighter jet can't accommodate so many people. I will contact a transport plane for you and arrive within ten minutes.

After the pilot finished speaking, the Raven-class fighter circled in the sky for two times and then left directly.

…

However, what surprised Ke Lan was that what came to pick them up ten minutes later was not the transport plane the fighter pilot called it, but an Iris-class light battleship, which is the smallest among Ark's main battleships. However, despite this, the length of the Iris-class battleship is still more than 380 meters, equipped with 64 large turbine engine sets, and the weapons and armor are completely different from those of fighter jets.

Even Layton couldn't help but said: This is really a grand occasion... a warship was dispatched to pick us up. This is the first time I have enjoyed this kind of treatment.

That's because you are the only survivors we found during this search and rescue operation. The speaker was a middle-aged officer who came forward to greet them. He was wearing the blue and gray uniform of the Ark Fourth Cruise Fleet. He wears a red uniform, a military cap, and the two winged silver stars on his epaulettes show that he is a genuine Air Force lieutenant colonel.

I am the captain of this warship and the most senior officer responsible for conducting this search and rescue operation, the lieutenant colonel added.

This search and rescue operation...does this mean there are other victims besides us? Ke Lan asked.

Yes, there were a total of seventeen transport aircraft accidents this time, and they were all concentrated in this area. Otherwise, we would not have appeared here in such a timely manner... According to the analysis of the staff department, the cause of this serial crash was The man behind this is likely to be an extreme exile force.

Damn, these bastards have become more and more courageous in recent years. When I was a soldier, they would run away as far as they saw us! Hound cursed angrily. He originally thought the plane had crashed. It was just an accident, but now someone actually told him that it was most likely a man-made conspiracy. This was really unbearable.

The specific situation is still under investigation. Don't worry yet. The captain said, The unconscious hunter has been sent to the medical cabin on the battleship. The medical conditions at the transfer station are not as good as here. I will send you directly Return to Ark, and there will be dedicated staff to hand over to you - by the way, I heard that you have also entered the core area of ​​the A-087 ruins?

Yes, but there is not much oil and water. The only thing that seems valuable is a stone tablet, and it is broken. The hound was a little depressed. Although their harvest from this trip has far exceeded expectations, you must know that any ruins, regardless of What level is it? All the hunters who entered the core area in the first team, without exception, all made a lot of money. Even if it is described as getting rich overnight, it is not an exaggeration to describe it. Earning enough for retirement in one trip is enough. There are many people who quit. Compared with them, the harvest this time is really not enough.

The value of documentary relics fluctuates greatly. Since it is something found in the core area, the reward given by the research department will not be low. Okay, you guys have a short rest here, I have to arrange the next action process . The captain comforted the hound and left. For a while, only Ke Lan and the others were left in the lounge.

Zhuoligetu is being rescued in the medical cabin, and Layton probably needs to be returned to the factory for overhaul. Both Ivan and the hound have undergone a comprehensive examination. The remaining toxins in the blood are already very small. It will only take a while. The bodies purified themselves. As for Akira Asano and Ke Lan, most of them had skin injuries and they would be fine after simple treatment.

I really came back with my life... The hound sighed and stretched hard.

Actually, I think there are still many problems in that ruins... Layton interjected, but was quickly interrupted by the hound:

Which ruins have fewer problems? How many ruins are there that can be thoroughly understood by us humans so far? Don't worry about it here. This kind of thing is not something we need to worry about. I will do it now I just want to go back to my bed and have a good sleep... The hound yawned and continued, Well, now that we have escaped, the ruins have nothing to do with us. You said before that I was suspicious, and you yourself Aren’t you looking like this?”

…

On one side, Layton and Hound were still chatting without a word, while on the other side, Ke Lan was sitting in his seat, checking his equipment silently, while thinking about what happened not long ago.

Reading the words of Alpha Civilization... This is an incredible ability - he knows very well how much contribution this ability can bring to mankind... However, he cannot do this.

If he really confessed, how would Fangzhou treat him, or to put it another way: how would he deal with him?

At that time, his life no longer belongs to him, but the wealth belonging to all mankind.

……well.

At this moment, the movements in his hands suddenly stopped - his left hand was holding a pistol, and his right hand was holding a magazine with only one bullet left.

Ke Lan remembered clearly that he never fired a single shot, whether when facing the resurrected pilot or when encountering the snow dragon on the mountain.

When setting off, the magazine must be full.

When was that bullet used?

Um...Old dog, have I ever fired a gun before? Ke Lan looked at the hound beside him and asked.

Shoot? Why do you ask?

Nothing, just asking.

The parasitic girl was killed by Ivan. You didn't fire... There should be no slitjaws either. Bullets have little effect on those things. As for when you faced that monster later, did you fire? I didn't notice the gun. Hound said as he recalled. The monster in his mouth naturally refers to the pilot who was resurrected from the sarcophagus.

Have any of you ever used my gun?

It certainly didn't.

...If that's the case, why is there only one bullet left in the magazine? When did he fire the gun?
