Chapter 247 Life and Death Crisis

In the movie, the Prometheus found several spaceships of engineers on the planet Lv.223. There were almost no engineers inside, and only one survived in the hibernation chamber.

But both the hints before entering this world and You Huan's intuition told him that the reason why this place was deserted was different from the one in the movie.

Walking around the driver's seat of this biological beauty, a kindred instinct of Black Water came over me.

This is his gifted [Blood Sense], he can vaguely sense the "breath" of other black water life forms.

It may be due to the residue of some pheromone.

He could also learn some information about the size, strength, and status of this black water creature.

He discovered at this moment that several black water creatures had been in this hall used to drive the entire spacecraft a long time ago.

They gave him a different feeling than those he had encountered before.

A more powerful type.

"hiss..."

Speak of the devil; he will appear.

Two hoarse voices appeared in the passage connecting to the hall.

In the alien's full-angle photosensitive vision, two figures emitting strange light immediately appeared.

It is different from the black water life transformed from the insects we encountered before.

The two black water creatures in front of them were extremely strong, with sturdy limbs, but because they were tall enough, they still looked slender.

The shape of the head is very close to that of an alien. The skull is very long and forms a fan behind the head, and the mouth is a "blooming" shape with circles of sharp teeth that expand and contract with the muscles.

There are several sharp spikes on its back pointing upwards.

After the roar, there was no extra sound or eye contact.

Both parties rushed towards each other at the same time!

The genes from monsters from another world allow You Huan to accelerate to an extremely high speed in a very short period of time.

After running a few steps, he turned into a swift black shadow and suddenly jumped out.

He dodged the two black water creatures' long tongues, which were similar to inner mouths, from their mouths.

The cat-like hind paws stepped on one of the monsters first, greatly reducing the recoil force on the body when it landed.

Then it was like a slow motion.

He leaned forward with his front half of the body, and opened his front paws, with his sharp claws gripping the bony protrusions on the back of the black water creature beneath him.

The tail, which was as angular as a mechanical structure, swung, and amid the hissing sound of black water life, the poisonous hook pierced its mouth directly from the side.

This stopped its movement of turning back to bite.

Then, he activated a very special talent——

[Thermal Armor]

Perhaps because of the limitations of Black Water and even this world's characteristics, abilities such as the fire breath of the dragons in the How to Train Your Dragon world cannot be replicated in Black Water.

After absorbing this part of the genes, Heishui created a unique power system according to local conditions.

The heat storage and heat dissipation performance of the full-body exoskeleton are greatly enhanced.

The exoskeleton can be put into a completely new state by actively generating high-speed heating and using a unique heat energy utilization structure.

The heat was rising, and a hint of red light was faintly visible outside the black exoskeleton.

A burst of power emerged silently, instantly increasing his forearm strength to 4-5 times the original!

He lifted it with force.

It's like opening the shell of a steamed crab with joy during the season when hairy crabs are at their plumpest.

"Tear——"

With a sound of sticky flesh being torn apart suddenly.

A stream of green acidic blood splattered onto the wall next to it.

Then there was the sound of a figure landing lightly on the ground.

Behind You Huan, the black water creature stood still for a moment.

The next second, its body split into two along the midline of its body and fell to the ground with a thud.

At this time, the heat of the thermal armor has not yet dissipated, and the exoskeleton is still continuously providing explosive power that is several times the original.

You Huan turned around suddenly, and at that moment another black water creature, unafraid of the death of its companion, rushed over with a roar.

A sickle-shaped wing spread out, and a faint red light shone from the sharp edge.

High heat and high speed.

The shadow of death flashed across the air.

The sharp edge of the sickle cut through the black water life that was rushing towards it like a hot knife cutting through butter.

The exoskeleton, flesh, and internal organs were all cut through one by one.

When it rushed in front of him, his sickle wing also cut its body completely.

Under the inertia of the forward rush, it stumbled forward two steps, then separated into two parts and fell to the ground with a crash.

You Huan retracted his sickle wings, and the exoskeleton wings stuck to his sides, like delicate patterns rather than wings.

He used his tail to hook up a piece of the blackwater creature's flesh and tasted it.

The blood of black water creatures is acidic, so they have strong defenses against acid from the inside out.

Once ingested, the acidic blood has no use other than adding a sour taste to the sparkling water.

[Evolution Points +2]

While gaining evolution points, he had a strange feeling.

My whole body seemed to be undergoing a rather slow change.

By learning the characteristics of these two black water creatures, he made his muscles stronger and his internal organs more resistant to impact.

This is [Gene Complementation] taking effect!

As the completion took effect, a vague progress seemed to appear in front of me.

Constantly absorb beneficial genes to complete your own genes, and constantly move towards the state of "perfection"...

"Hiss… Ho…"

A hoarse and loud roar interrupted his thoughts.

He suddenly raised his head, and when he looked at the person who came, the palpitations from the black water life's [blood relationship induction] and biological instinct suddenly spread throughout his body!

Danger!

He didn't even bother to collect the prey he had just killed. He burst out with his maximum strength while the thermal armor had not yet completely cooled down.

It moved sideways to the hall near the driver's seat almost as if it were teleporting.

"Boom!"

Almost at the same time, a heavy blow directly created a huge dent where he was originally standing!

"Crack, crack—"

The cracks on the ground caused by the huge force spread rapidly and reached You Huan's feet in the blink of an eye.

At this time, the creature that created the huge pit slowly stood up.

When he saw its appearance clearly, You Huan couldn't help but feel extremely shocked, and curious.

It walks upright, has a clavicle structure, is over three meters tall, has a slightly pointed head, and has limbs and backs covered with spikes.

The structure of nostrils is retained above the mouth.

Is this a blackwater life form transformed from a human?

No, it could also be an engineer!

However, in the movie, the alien "Deacon Alien" created by Blackwater Life after several steps of parasitic engineers is not that tall, does not have so many extra spikes on its body, and its limbs are not that thick.

If I had to say it, the guy in front of me seemed to be transformed from a "superman" among engineers.

What is outside the spacecraft?

Now is not a good time to think or explore.

This sturdy black water creature seemed to be the "leader" of the two he had just killed.

After looking down at the corpses around it, it let out a cold roar.

The hind legs pushed hard against the ground, and the strong muscle power made it burst out at a ghostly speed despite its large size!

Feeling the strong wind coming from the front, You Huan dodged immediately.

"Shua——"

Although he tried his best to dodge, the bone spurs on the black water creature's forelimbs still grazed his waist.

The overwhelming force transmitted from the bone spurs directly shattered part of his exoskeleton!

"Tick..."

Blood is flowing out.

But there is no time to process.

Seeing that the attack failed, the black water creature took heavy steps and chased after it madly.

You Huan quickly consumed his biological energy and activated his thermal armor again. With the extra explosive power of the exoskeleton, he kept dodging its violent attacks.

Whether it was his fists or the inner mouth that shot out from his mouth, if he was hit by its attack, he would surely die.

It has only been a short time since I was "born" and I have encountered an invincible enemy... This world is really dangerous!

Through the burst of thermal armor, he barely avoided its subsequent attack and rushed out of the hall. The scene in front of him made him stop again.

"Hiss..." With a hoarse but loud voice, a black water creature that was almost identical to the one chasing him from behind walked towards him.

　Let me explain to those brothers who don't know about the Alien series. Why are aliens like white giants called Engineers? It's because they created humans and are humans' "engineers." This is actually the name given to them by humans.
