The alien beast was hit in its vitals, roared wildly, and jumped back. Its front paws were still holding the hatch, but it opened the hatch completely in one fell swoop. The alien beasts outside had already gathered and rushed towards the gap.
Lin Xi got out from Chu Jun's side, grabbed the hatch handle with both hands, and exerted all his strength. At the same time, with the auxiliary power of the armor, he instantly closed the hatch by a third, and firmly stuck the heads of the two strange beasts.
Naturally, Chu Jungui would not let go of this opportunity. He stabbed more than ten times with his dagger like lightning, smashing the heads of the two strange beasts.
At this time, Lin Xi's armor had reached its limit, so she loosened her grip and the hatch was immediately opened by the alien beast outside. However, she then used her strength again and closed the hatch halfway, clamping the two alien beasts again.
Chu Jungui swung his sword like lightning, smashing the mouth and lower half of the head of a strange beast eight times in a row, but he changed his strategy to deal with the second strange beast. The short knife lightly passed over the alien beast's head, puncturing all four small eyes and suspected sensory organs on the beast's head.
The second injured beast immediately let out a shrill scream and rolled on the spot, clawing and biting desperately, but blocked the herd of beasts outside.
Lin Xi immediately let go, seizing the precious less than half a second to regain her breath.
At this moment, there were six or seven strange beasts outside. They couldn't rush to the door and began to attack the cockpit. These alien beasts all have three sharp claws, which are extremely powerful. Metal and stone seem to be no different in their eyes. They dig directly at the four walls of the cockpit with their claws, and occasionally bite them hard.
Each time they scratched, they would leave three deep marks on the bulkhead, and their bite would leave an irregular patch of tiny holes.
Fortunately, the cockpit also serves as a rescue cabin, and the bulkhead is extremely strong. Although these strange beasts are terrifying, they cannot break through the cockpit wall for the time being.
Chu Jun silently counted to three seconds and nodded to Lin Xi. Lin Xi opened the hatch and then closed the door with force, trapping the two strange beasts in the door.
Chu Jungui waved his hand and released a blade of light, destroying all the sensory organs of the alien beast.
Lin Xi's breathing was extremely heavy, and beeps kept coming from inside the armor, warning that the auxiliary power system was overloaded.
"Let me do it!" Chu Jungui shouted. The two have the same armor, but his strength is much greater than that of Lin Xi, and his endurance is also beyond the range, making him suitable for such dirty work.
However, Lin Xi shouted "no" and shouted: "My sword skills are not as good as yours!"
Chu Jungui gritted his teeth and stopped insisting. He swung his knife to destroy the strange beasts one after another. When the last one came, he rushed out of the cockpit. The strange beast was still chewing on the bulkhead. When it saw Chu Jungui, it turned around and roared. The lower half of its head exploded completely and was smashed by Chu Jungui with a knife.
Chu Jungui picked up the survival rifle, replaced it with a new magazine, walked around the ground, and shot the struggling beasts one by one.
The half-closed hatch squeaked and opened slowly. Lin Xi climbed out of the cockpit, staggered and almost fell. Chu Jungui hurried over and supported her.
Lin Xi's whole body was trembling and panting violently, and she finally calmed down a little. Although the battle just now was short, it was extremely fierce. She struggled with the beast the whole time and almost collapsed.
Before she recovered, she grabbed Chu Jungui and asked, "Why...waste bullets?"
Chu Jungui showed her the chipped short knife and said, "The knife is more useful. Besides, we may not have much time. There are probably more things like this than what we see."
"What the hell are these things!" Lin Xi cursed, and then said: "They are so fast and there are so many of them, they are probably not the top predators on this planet. Damn it! You don't have to worry about me. , I have recovered, now we need to find a place to establish a stronghold, the cockpit cannot withstand several such attacks."
Chu Jungui nodded and said, "I will clear the battlefield, and you scan the terrain."
Lin Xi opened his left arm armor, raised his personal terminal, turned on the environment scanning function, and began to scan the surrounding terrain. When Chu Jun returned, he dragged the corpses of the strange beasts together and piled them up. Although we don’t know yet whether they can be eaten, they might be a source of food for some time in the future.
Chu Jungui walked around the cockpit to inspect the extent of the damage. Before a new stronghold was established, this cockpit was the only safe haven for the two of them.
The cockpit bulkhead was covered with claw marks. Chu Jungui reached out and touched it, feeling the power that could cut apart high-strength alloys. The claw marks can be as shallow as one centimeter, and as deep as more than three centimeters.
There are many bite marks next to the claw marks, which are much deeper than the claw marks. There are still many teeth left on the bite marks, and it seems that the alien beast has also paid some price. However, compared with their mouths full of hundreds of sharp teeth, losing a dozen or so teeth will not affect their combat effectiveness.
Chu Jungui grabbed a broken tooth and used force twice before pulling it out. He looked at the section of the sharp tooth, and then squeezed it hard with both hands. The broken tooth made a cracking sound, but it was only half broken.
At this point, Chu Jungui had an intuitive understanding of the terrifying combat power of the alien beasts. In other words, only the cockpit bulkhead can block them, but the armors worn by the two of them can't even block one bite.
Fortunately, Chu Jungui and Lin Xi's marksmanship were both excellent. They first weakened more than half of the beast herd, and then used the cockpit as the final barrier to completely wipe out the beast herd. As long as two more strange beasts are left at the beginning, it will be difficult for both of them to deal with it.
At this time, Lin Xi had completed scanning the surrounding terrain. The terrain scanning function that comes with personal terminals originally had a scanning range of several thousand meters, but in this environment it became just over a hundred meters. However, the two of them were lucky. There was a small, relatively flat area nearby. The ground was full of hard rocks and there were no signs of large-scale biological activity.
Time was running out, and Lin Xi and Chu Jungui had no choice but to choose the flat land. At least they didn't have to worry about anything strange coming out of the ground.
Lin Xi threw the manufacturing machine to Chu Jungui and said, "Hurry up and make some necessary tools. It's up to you what you make. I'm going to level the foundation now."
"You seem to be saying the opposite."
Lin Xi patted Chu Jungui on the shoulder and said, "You are still young and don't understand anything. I should do the dirty work. You just need to use your brain."
Chu Jungui almost choked with a few words, and various components could not parse the logical relationship. He stood blankly, watching Lin Xi dragging his heavy body towards the reserved campsite, and felt an indescribable strange feeling for a moment.
Lin Xi was actually very tired. He was so tired that he moved slowly when clearing a piece of land and looked like he might collapse at any time.
Chu Jungui watched for a full minute, and finally strode over, silently picked up Lin Xi, threw him to the manufacturing machine, and shouted: "Work!"
Lin Xi was like an irritated kitten, struggling desperately and shouting: "What are you doing, do you want to rebel?"
"Don't force me to use force." Chu Jungui knew that he had said the wrong thing.
Lin Xi snorted and said without fear, "Do you have the courage?"
"...No." For some reason, Chu Jungui felt that he had said the wrong thing again.
