"Huh? Did you hear anything?"
At the edge of the reservoir, Kiko suddenly perked up his ears and looked at his friends with hesitation.
Everyone immediately looked at him in surprise, with a vague premonition rising in their hearts.
"Shh!"
Kiko suddenly raised his index finger to signal everyone to be quiet.
He then stiffened his neck again, as if trying to listen to something.
"Dong~dong~dong~"
A dull sound came from the side again, this time significantly louder than before.
Now, not only Kiko, but also everyone present heard the muffled sound clearly.
"No! They're not dead yet!"
Morris' expression changed, and he suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the sound.
As if to prove that what he said was true, a loud sound was heard, and the heavy metal valve above the reservoir shattered into a big hole.
Immediately afterwards, a green arm stretched out from below, and a tall mutant slowly climbed up from below and stood in front of everyone.
"hiss……"
Seeing this scene, the hunters of the Rat Exterminator team couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
The mutant in front of him could no longer be described as "tall". He was simply a real monster.
Judging from the scene they just saw, the height of ordinary mutants is about two meters and two, and some burly mutant leaders can reach two and a half meters.
Don't look at it, compared to those real alien species, their size is not outstanding.
But if this height is compared with ordinary people, it is almost twice as tall.
Think about it, when you stand in front of a person, your head can only reach his waist, and you need to raise your head more than 70 degrees to see the other person's face, what that experience will be like.
However, the mutant in front of him was even more exaggerated than those leaders. His height had already exceeded two meters, and it roughly looked like he was at least three and a half meters tall, almost approaching an adult giraffe.
When a human stands in front of it, it feels like standing at the feet of a giant. The height only reaches the opponent's thigh. If you really stand in front of it, it can bring endless oppression to people.
Coupled with his shoulder width of at least one and a half meters and muscles full of explosive power, he feels like a moving humanoid tank.
With such a size, it is not that surprising that he can break through the thick metal valve and escape.
"Guys...I think we might be in trouble..."
Kiko, a strong black man, was the closest. He took two steps back with a wary face. For the first time, he felt his own insignificance in front of a humanoid creature.
"We've run out of bullets. I've drank four bottles of sun essence potion. I should be able to drag him down for a while. You guys run away first!"
Kiko said to his companions behind him with a solemn face.
At this moment, he only felt a tragic aura filling his body. Perhaps from the perspective of his teammates, his majestic back had become the most beautiful scenery in the world.
"Idiot! There is no need for you to cut off the queen! You are like a ten-year-old child in front of this guy, run away together!!"
Andrea shouted.
"No, I think it should be seven years old."
On the side, Lu Men also interjected with a serious face.
"I'm sorry..."
Kiko almost felt like he had a cerebral hemorrhage, and even the Chinese he had just learned came out loud.
"Is now the time to discuss this!?"
He yelled behind him.
The unceremonious words of these two people had interrupted his fantasy and shattered the sacrificial atmosphere he had finally created for himself.
"Hoho...hoho..."
Opposite, the three-meter-tall giant mutant gasped violently. It was obvious that the action of breaking the valve underwater just now was very difficult for him.
"The Federation...the genetic warriors...die...die!"
Perhaps the bigger the body, the less intelligent the brain. This giant mutant speaks even slower than the previous subordinates.
"No! Be careful! He is coming!"
Morris quickly reminded him when he saw this scene.
In his busy schedule, he did not forget to take a moment to take a look at the hole on the valve. After seeing that only the other person rushed out, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The water attack was still effective, but the physique of the guy in front of him was too exaggerated, so he escaped.
Thinking of this, he quickly shouted in Lumen's direction:
"Grenade!!"
At the same time, Brother Glasses took out the last concussion grenade he had collected and threw it accurately in the direction of the monster.
"Dip~dip~"
This time, the grenade was set to detonate in advance, and it exploded after just two blasts.
However, a scene that horrified everyone appeared.
The big mutant suddenly stretched out a hand to grab the grenade, and then just like holding a firecracker with both hands, the grenade exploded in the palm of his hand.
"Buzz~"
A concussion grenade that could directly tear an ordinary mutant into pieces was like a squib in the opponent's hands and simply disappeared.
"Roar!!!"
The big man felt pain and let out a huge roar.
Everyone could see that his hands were stained with blood, and the flesh on them was bloody.
But this was their last grenade, and all the ammunition in the guns had been used up just now. Now, as Kiko said before, they could only run away.
"Gene warrior! Die! Gene warrior! Die!!"
But how could the big mutant let them go? He was already rushing over like a tank with full power.
"careful!"
Lu Men, who had just attacked him, was chosen as the first target. Fortunately, he was also very agile and could dodge sideways.
"boom!!"
The big mutant, unabated, crashed into the small room behind Lumen.
The metal wall immediately fell apart under his impact, and the steel fragments flew and scattered all over the ground.
"Farke!"
Kiko screamed when he saw this, then picked up a sharp metal fragment on the ground and rushed over.
There was no suspense. The strong black man came and left even faster.
His figure flew out like a cannonball, landed on the reservoir valve in the distance, rolled and slid for dozens of meters, and then fell into the hole with a "pop".
"Kiko!"
Morris was shocked and angry when he saw this, but now he couldn't take care of himself, because the mutant had already set his target on him.
"Roar!!"
Facing the big man rushing towards him, Morris could only grit his teeth and try his best to hide to the side.
He was already seriously injured, but now that he was doing this again, he coughed up two mouthfuls of blood and almost lost his breath.
Fortunately, his pounce was not completely ineffective. While dodging the monster's attack, he also threw a small bottle in his hand and hit the opponent's face.
"Ronchospora powder!"
When the white-haired man Ashley saw this scene, he screamed in surprise.
Of course he remembered that when he came here before, the captain collected some powder of Lange bacteria from the roadside, and of course he remembered the function of those powders, that is, they can make people hallucinate.
Sure enough, they saw that the big mutant did not attack immediately, but stopped and rubbed his eyes vigorously, looking groggy.
"This thing can't last long, let's retreat quickly!"
"No! Kiko just fell into the reservoir, we must find a way to rescue him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a large amount of water sprayed out of the hole in the valve, and a dark, round head poked out.
"Kiko!"
Morris looked surprised.
The strong black man raised his hand, raised a plasma sniper rifle in his hand, and said excitedly:
"Look what I found!!"
He said and hurriedly climbed up. He was slightly startled when he saw the monster's state, and then he immediately came back to his senses and aimed the gun in his hand at the opponent.
"How to use it!? How to use this thing!?"
However, after pulling the trigger a few times, Kiko found that there was no movement inside the barrel, and the red light did not appear as expected.
"Shake! Shake!"
Andrea screamed anxiously, gesturing desperately to turn the handle.
Fortunately, Kiko was not too stupid. He immediately understood what the other party meant and began to quickly spin the charge on the side of the gun.
"Kiko! Hurry up you muscular idiot!!"
Andrea picked up sharp metal fragments on the ground and attacked the target from a distance, while constantly urging Kiko. The plasma sniper rifle in his hand was the last hope for several people.
"Asshole! What did you just call me!"
Even though I was sweating in a hurry, I felt like I had never been so fast in my life.
But no matter how he rotated the charging rod, the energy storage tank inside the barrel never moved.
After a moment, he finally understood and roared with grief and anger:
"Damn it! It's not waterproof! These stupid homemade products are not waterproof!!"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the field suddenly froze for a moment. Apparently, even Lu Men did not expect that things would turn out like this.
But at this moment, the big mutant had also woken up, and the bottle of Lange bacteria could not help them buy much time.
"Roar!!"
The monster was obviously completely irritated by the successive tricks. His eyes were bloodshot, and like an angry elephant, he rushed towards the nearest Maurice.
"Boss!!"
Several screams came from the members of the Rat Exterminator team at the same time. Facing such a raging offensive, they could only watch their captain being crushed by the opponent.
Morris felt as if the time around him had slowed down, and various scenes in his life flashed before his eyes.
Dropped out of high school, quarreled with his parents, ran away from home, got his first bounty, met the woman he loved, joined the Wildfire Tavern, and fought against all kinds of mutant beasts...
Scene after scene was like a fast-forwarded movie, allowing him to finish watching it in just a short moment.
Morris once heard that people will see everything that has happened before they die, but he never believed this before. How could he remember the memories of this life in that moment of flashback?
It wasn't until this moment, when all of this happened to him, that he suddenly realized that it was all true.
However, maybe everyone will experience this before they die, so I am afraid no one will ever tell this secret.
In short, in this last period of time, he surprisingly did not feel panic, but felt calm in his heart. He only hoped that this period of reminiscing could last longer so that he could take away more memories.
"In fact, time does not exist. We are all just on a singularity. It is not surprising that you can experience this..."
Suddenly, a voice sounded in his ear.
"What!!?"
Morris' slowly closed eyes suddenly opened, and he looked in the direction of the sound in horror.
In front of him, he saw a figure wearing purple-black robes standing in the void.
He was surrounded by a hazy light that made it impossible to tell what color it was, as if even the space was blurred.
Everything around him also stopped.
The grief-stricken expressions on the teammates' faces, the mutant's flying movements in front of him, and even the flying stones were suspended in the air.
"You... who are you? What... happened to me...?"
At this moment, Morris felt like his brain was going to shut down.
He had imagined his possible ending long before this action.
After successfully completing the mission and returning, he was eaten by a monster, encountered a red light and turned into a deformed body, accidentally fell from a tall building and died, etc.
But no matter which one it is, it does not include the current situation.
All he could say was that this was so incredible that he had never even imagined it.
"I originally planned to come here to survey the terrain, but I didn't expect to see you here. I guess your fate should not be cut off..."
The man slowly fell from the air, stood beside him, and looked at the surrounding environment.
Morris suddenly reacted at this time, and his eyes couldn't help but widen.
"You, you are the Star Lord!?"
He struggled to stand up, but was seriously injured. He tried several times but failed.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoman gently stretched out a finger and touched his eyebrows. He saw a burst of green light flash, and a majestic vitality was instilled into the opponent's body along with his movements, causing injuries all over the latter's body. He was instantly cured.
Healing Touch, a green skill derived from the system lottery, can quickly restore the target's vitality. The reason why it can have such an effect is because it has been upgraded to the purple level.
"I-I'm fine!?"
Morris trembled, showing an expression of disbelief.
His serious injury was healed in this instant?
But when he thought of the other party's identity, he felt relieved again.
Since he is a Star Lord, it makes sense to be able to do all this, right?
At this time, Zhang Xiaoman had already taken a look at the surrounding environment and roughly understood what was happening here.
"I didn't expect that you could achieve this level with the power of five people... With such a large number of super mutants, even if the awakened ones come, I'm afraid it won't be that easy to take down. It really surprises me... "
