Alien Relic Hunter

I'm afraid it wouldn't be good for someone to die at a banquet of this level, right? Facing the eyes of those people, Ke Lan said in an extremely calm tone.

Maybe this slave will eventually die in a fight to the death, but at least Ke Lan doesn't want to see him killed here - in front of his own kind, in an iron cage, by a man stronger than himself. Many wild beasts were killed.

This is not the way a human being should die.

Although in the eyes of the big lizard and the gods believed in by the Alpha civilization, humans are almost like bugs, at least, humans should not regard their own kind as bugs and deprive the lives of their kind just like killing a bug.

This method of death is devoid of dignity and meaningless. Its only function is to provide a moment of sensory stimulation to the onlookers.

Who are you? The young master of the Morgan consortium stood up and pointed at Ke Lan and asked, his strong dissatisfaction was palpable... Although Ke Lan rescued the man who was almost killed, he was destroyed. The program he carefully prepared... This kind of behavior is not much different from directly slapping him in the face.

The onlookers looked at Ke Lan with unfriendly eyes. From the whispered conversations, Ke Lan heard words such as disappointing, rude and uneducated more than once.

Lu Che glanced at Ke Lan, who was silent, and shook his head with some regret.

Originally, his first impression of Ke Lan was very average, but now, his evaluation of Ke Lan has hit rock bottom.

In Lu Che's view, even if the young master from the Morgan Consortium did so much, Ke Lan should not be involved in this matter... In order to save the life of a low-level slave, not only did he slap the young master hard on the face, but he also It also dampened the interest of most people present... This deal was really not a good deal.

Not only will such a righteous act not bring any benefits to oneself, but it will also create a lot of potential enemies... If nothing else, at least the Morgan consortium will be offended to death.

Lu Che began to think about how to get Zofia to annul the engagement and sever the relationship with Ke Lan - although he was not from Zofia's side, if the Morgan consortium chose to put pressure on the entire Soma family If so, the one who would suffer is everyone with Soma in their surname.

Just when Lu Che was about to pull Zofia away from Ke Lan, he suddenly smelled a pungent fishy smell. The appearance of this smell was extremely sudden, but within just a few seconds, It spread to the entire corner of the Imperial Ballroom.

Ke Lan naturally smelled the smell... Not only did he smell it, he also found the source of the smell immediately.

That heavily armored rhinoceros shovel in the cage!

A large amount of asphalt-like secretions overflowed from the gaps in its carapace, and this pungent fishy smell came from these secretions.

Not only that, the carapace on the heavily armored rhinoceros spade began to melt at a speed visible to the naked eye... However, the tissues under the shell were not exposed through the dissolved carapace. What appeared in Ke Lan's field of vision was instead a A new shell with a crystalline texture!

shell?

Is this bug not completely dead yet? !

A term that had only been proposed by biologists on the Ark in recent years suddenly popped up in Ke Lan's mind - stress mutation. This is a very rare phenomenon that occurs when some indigenous creatures are affected by When suffering a fatal trauma or entering a near-death state, the mutation process will be forcibly triggered in order to survive...

Although this phenomenon is more like the proverbial reflection of light, no biological individual that has been observed to have a stress mutation has a remaining life span of more than 24 hours, but before they completely stop life activities, they will burst out with more energy than before. It was originally several times more powerful.

Now we're in trouble. There's a one in 100,000 chance of running into us. Isn't this group of people so lucky? Ke Lan thought to himself, his eyes quickly scanning every corner of the banquet hall. However, I tried to find something that could be used to defend myself.

As for the young master from the Morgan consortium, he most likely had never heard of stress mutation. He pinched his nose with his hands, frowned and looked at the heavy-armored rhinoceros shovel in the cage. Not only did he not stay away, but He also took the initiative to come closer.

Leave quickly! Everyone, stay away from that cage! The sudden vision did not alert the people around the cage. For these flowers grown in the greenhouse, they have almost no sense of danger, and they don't understand why. The corpse of the heavily armored rhinoceros shovel will undergo such changes.

What? The young master of the Morgan Consortium turned around and asked loudly.

That thing is not dead yet! This phenomenon is most likely a 'stress mutation'... It is more dangerous now than before, and this cage may not be able to trap it! Ke Lan explained, although these people were He was blaming and belittling himself, but he didn't want this banquet hall to turn into a bloody hell.

It's not dead? Wait a minute? What mutation are you talking about? Could it be a lie-

Before he finished speaking, the heavily armored rhinoceros shovel that had shed its shell suddenly rose from the ground. The giant jaw covered with black crystals easily cut through the iron cage that contained it, and along with it, the young master of the Morgan consortium was killed. Half of the head was also cut off.

The ear-piercing screams immediately resounded throughout the Empire Banquet Hall, and the people around the cage immediately ran away... One of the young ladies accidentally stepped on the hem of her dress in panic and tripped to the ground. By the time she got up, the giant jaws of the heavily armored rhinoceros shovel had cut her slender body in half, and the bloody internal organs splashed more than ten meters away.

Kill it! Kill it! Someone shouted loudly in the chaos. The burly bodyguards in black suits looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and rushed forward, blocking the path of the heavy-armored rhino shovel. superior.

However, these bodyguards, the weakest and second-level reformers, could not hold on for even a second - firearms were prohibited from being brought into the reception, and the only weapons they had on them were non-lethal Taser guns. The electric current of this thing can send humans into shock instantly, but for the heavily armored rhinoceros spade, it can't even be considered an itch.

Although these dedicated bodyguards were admirable, all they did was add a few puddles of indistinguishable meat to the floor of the banquet hall.

People in the banquet hall kept rushing towards the door. They crowded together and pushed each other. From time to time, someone would fall to the ground... Anyone who fell would basically never get up again, even screaming. The sound was directly drowned in all kinds of shouts and roars.

Countless expensive leather shoes and high heels stepped on the blood-soaked carpet. The bright red blood bubbled out from the fabric fibers and stained the polished leather surfaces.

Some people hid in the corners of the banquet hall. Many people took out their mobile phones and began to ask for help from the outside world. However, when the garrison arrived at the hotel and took the elevator to the top floor, by that time, it was estimated that There won't be many living people left in the entire Empire Banquet Hall.

Let's find a place to hide first! Lu Che said nervously to Zofia and Ke Lan. The location they were in was far away from the exits of the banquet hall. If they wanted to escape from the banquet hall, they would definitely It was too late, so it was better to find a relatively safe place and pray that the garrison would arrive as soon as possible.

Okay, Mr. Lu Che, then I'll ask you to protect Zofia. Ke Lan said.

Then...then what are you going to do? Lu Che was stunned for a moment. He felt that he seemed to have guessed what Ke Lan wanted to do, but he didn't dare to believe it.

Go kill that big bug, of course.

Are you crazy? You don't even have a weapon... Before Lu Che could finish his words, Ke Lan had already picked up a few wine bottles on the table and ran towards the heavily armored rhinoceros shovel after the stress mutation. .

This guy... is he looking for death? Looking at Ke Lan's back, Lu Che couldn't help but said, Forget it, it's hard to persuade the damn ghost... It would be better if this guy died...

He won't die. At this time, Zofia suddenly said, At least he won't die here.

Why? Lu Che looked at his niece in shock.

…

At this time, Ke Lan had arrived behind the heavy-armored rhinoceros spade, less than twenty meters away from it.

What Lu Che said was not wrong. He didn't even have a weapon, so he couldn't cause any effective damage to the heavy-armored rhinoceros shovel... And the heavy-armored rhinoceros shovel, which was in a state of stress mutation, had conventional weaknesses such as its eyes and abdomen. They have all disappeared. Attacking these places will not only fail to kill it, but will further anger it.

Ke Lan glanced at the wine bottles he had just picked up, a bottle of brandy and a bottle of whiskey, both of which were distilled spirits with high alcohol content. It might be a good choice to use them to make Molotov cocktails... However, he wanted to If this heavily armored rhinoceros shovel is burned alive, I am afraid that everyone on this level will die of high temperature and suffocation before it does.

No, there is another way!

Ke Lan didn't think much, and directly smashed the wine bottle in his hand towards the heavy-armored rhinoceros shovel, shouting loudly: Hey! I'm here! Silly bug, I just stabbed you, I'm standing here now, Come chase me!”

He found a few more wine bottles and threw them at the heavy-armored rhinoceros shovel one after another.

Finally, Ke Lan succeeded in irritating the big insect. It turned around, leaving three red eyes staring at Ke Lan, and rushed towards him.

success.

Seeing the big bug rushing towards him like an accelerating armored vehicle, knocking away the tables and chairs, Ke Lan breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and ran away.

In terms of straight-line running speed, Ke Lan cannot compare with the heavy-armored rhinoceros shovel, but he is better in flexibility. He keeps tossing and turning, using the short gap when time stops to plan an escape route, and at the same time, step by step, he leads the big insect to where he is. In the trap laid...

With a sliding shovel close to the ground, Ke Lan passed under a long wine table. The moment he emerged from the other end of the table, he turned around and lifted up the huge tablecloth on the table to cover the big insect that was chasing after him. Passed by... This scene made him feel a bit like a Spanish matador from the old era. If the tablecloth were replaced with red, it would be more like...

The wine bottles and glasses on the table were scattered all over the floor along with the lifted tablecloth and smashed to pieces. The next second, the entire solid wood wine table followed in their footsteps and was crushed under the impact of the heavy-armored rhinoceros shovel. It became fragments flying all over the sky.

Ke Lan suddenly stopped. He no longer ran away or dodge. He turned around and smiled at the heavily armored rhinoceros shovel that was chasing him.

The heavy-armored rhinoceros shovel did not stop. In the last part of Ke Lan's escape route, a straight road was even designed to help it accelerate... Just when the giant jaws of the heavy-armored rhinoceros shovel were about to touch Ke Lan, Ke Lan suddenly He leaned back and fell on his back. At the same time, he stretched out his arms to protect his cheek.

Less than two meters behind Ke Lan was the observation deck at the edge of the top floor of the hotel. The heavy-armored rhinoceros shovel, unable to stop the car, instantly shattered the huge floor-to-ceiling window and flew out of the observation deck!

Between the glass curtain wall of the hotel and the external porthole of the Ark, there is a hollow layer with a span of more than fifty meters. The heavy-armored rhinoceros spade only flew out for more than ten meters before it lost momentum and fell straight down. And go.

Loud noises kept coming from the hollow level. The falling heavy-armored shovel broke more than a dozen steel beams used to support the hotel's outer wall before hitting the ground solidly.

boom!!

Along with the deafening roar, the entire hotel shook violently several times.

Ke Lan climbed up from the ground and looked down through the gap in the floor-to-ceiling window. At a height of one thousand meters, the heavy-armored rhinoceros shovel smashed a huge hole in the metal ground, so deep that the foundation of the hotel was All show slight deformation.

This hotel may have become a dangerous building, Ke Lan thought, hoping that the Morgan consortium would not bear the repair costs on himself...
