Chapter 119: The Profound Appearance of the Xenomorph

Number Six stood out primarily for his far-sighted strategic vision, extraordinary tactical thinking, and tactical execution capabilities.

Predicting the opponent's movements, attacking strategic points of the enemy, scheming, assassinating, being elusive, diverting attention, and covertly infiltrating; leading companions in ambushes, encirclements, and massacres was innate to him.

No matter how powerful the enemy, no matter their numbers, they were not a problem in his presence.

In adversity, this Xenomorph was a master of survival, capable of turning the tide in unfavorable situations. Once the opportunity arose, he could launch a deadly offensive. And in favorable circumstances, what awaited the opponent would be a massacre.

Several of Peter's teammates met a grim fate at the hands of this Xenomorph.

If it weren't for his stroke of luck, using the Queen to distract it, this Worker Xenomorph would likely have wiped them out entirely.

Though Peter was unaware of the embryo inside his chest, born from the union with Helen, compared to Number Six, it probably wouldn't differ much.

"If the 'Queen' isn't a Worker but an original Queen..."

Peter fell into contemplation.

The Queen Xenomorph's intelligence was more pronounced.

The Queen on the colony of LV-426 left a deep impression on him.

In a previous Xenomorph world, he had traveled to this planet aboard a spaceship.

Passing through complex metallic caves with the Marines, breaching the sturdy Xenomorph hive, they reached the twisted and mutated primary nest, where a colossal Queen Xenomorph rested.

It was astonishingly large, mighty in strength, and possessed developed intellect, brimming with alien wisdom.

It could comprehend and utilize the intellectual products of other intelligent beings. Its own species destined it for a high rank, rapidly breeding countless Xenomorphs like a plague, with remarkable efficiency.

All Xenomorph Drones bowed before it; it was the true terrifying monarch of LV-426.

The Queen excelled in utilizing the energy of atmospheric processors to provide for the colony, while hiding deep within the nest, undiscovered by enemies.

Mysterious, powerful, and possessing strong strategic awareness, these were the traits that left the biggest impression on Peter.

LV-426 had become his breeding ground. When threatened, it immediately transformed into a relentless hunter, beginning to slaughter the Marines, almost destroying the transport ship.

If it were to come to Earth, human doomsday would be upon us.

"What are you thinking about?"

Helen, noticing Peter's silence, suddenly asked him.

"Just random thoughts."

Peter changed the subject, "Does the Queen have any inclination towards reproduction after her birth?"

"What?"

"I mean, does the Queen reproduce?"

If the 'Queen' were the original Queen, once it started reproducing, the entire Earth might find itself under its shadow.

After all, the scariest aspect of the Xenomorph wasn't its killings, but its reproduction.

Once it started parasitizing hosts and continuously evolving by absorbing the superior DNA, the entire Earth would be overrun by them.

"Not at the moment."

Helen glanced deeply at Peter, "Although for most organisms, reproduction and survival are the purposes of existence, the 'Queen' doesn't seem to fit into that category; it's only interested in killing."

"Is that so?"

Peter turned to look at the forest in the rainy night.

He had once seen a future scene at Mrs. Weaver's place.

The entire New York had turned into hell, with burning ruins everywhere.

And he, wearing the Infinity Gauntlet, summoned countless Xenomorphs.

Could the future proliferation of Xenomorphs be related to the current 'Queen'?

As the 'Queen' concealed herself in the darkness, Liz and Gloria exchanged a glance.

"Black represents the grim reaper,"

Liz recited the words Gloria had just spoken.

She was starting to believe Gloria's view now. This creature possessed a pitch-black appearance, evoking not just shock but a sense of death.

As Liz, intrigued by the occult, found herself in profound astonishment, she observed its elongated limbs, sharp head, unique teeth, and the mysterious, oppressive aura exuding from its dark body, which hinted at immense power.

Liz had never seen such dental structure in any other creature before.

"Do you think it looks similar to Spider-Man's costume?" Liz suddenly asked Gloria.

"It does seem to have some resemblance," Gloria replied, snapping out of her shock and swallowing nervously.

Though unsure why, Gloria found this creature, in front of her, more terrifying than a werewolf.

"But they're totally unrelated, right? Spider-Man and this monster, they have nothing in common."

Gloria shared her perspective with Liz, "Perhaps they both favor black; you know, black symbolizes death."

Just as Gloria finished speaking, the "Queen" on the live screen launched an attack.

Concealed within the darkness of the forest, its form blended seamlessly with the surroundings, even changing its exoskeleton color based on the surrounding hues.

Then, it pierced the skin on its claws and flung them towards the prone figure of Kraven.

The highly corrosive blood splattered onto him, immediately eliciting screams of agony from Kraven.

"Ah! Damn it! Son of a bitch!"

The excruciating pain, piercing to his bones, made Kraven, who prided himself as a tough guy, unable to suppress his screams.

The agony of his muscles being corroded made him wish for death in the next moment.

The screams from the forest immediately caught the werewolf's attention.

Highly tensed, he looked sharply towards Kraven.

The next moment, the "Queen" pounced on him from behind.

The werewolf, attacked from behind, attempted to counter, but immediately caught a whiff of an uncomfortable scent.

It seemed like the breath expelled by the creature attacking him, momentarily dulled his mind.

His entire body was immediately assaulted by a numbing sensation.

Though he tried to resist with all his might, he couldn't summon the strength to fight back.

Although he recovered in less than a second.

But this time was enough for the "Queen" to end the battle.

The Queen's tongue attacked the werewolf's throat, while its tail spike aimed at his heart.

Though the werewolf had tough skin, the Queen's body pierced through his throat.

Despite his desperate struggle to avoid his heart being pierced, blood gushed out immediately. The werewolf clutched his throat, howling in agony as he staggered back.

Even with his healing ability, this attack was too much for him to endure.

As the werewolf staggered back, the Queen's claws reached for his head, attempting to tear it apart.

Being noticeably larger than an ordinary werewolf, he gritted his teeth in pain and raised his hand to stop her, enduring the agony.

But the next moment, his arm was torn off, blood gushing out profusely.

As the viewers witnessed this scene on the live broadcast, they were shocked. Suddenly, the broadcast paused, and the screen filled with static.

"Shit!"
