Chapter 226: Alien Sentry

~11 min read 2,099 words

Standing at the entrance of the spaceship, Ye Nan first saw spider webs. Countless spider webs crawled all over the walls of the spaceship, covering up all the scenery inside, just like a host who didn't like his guests to visit and decorated the house very messily.

These spider webs were different from Peter's spider webs; these spider webs were much looser and thinner. Occasionally, a gust of wind blew, blowing up many spider webs.

Ye Nan, Duan Yan, and Storm Ororo stood at the door of the spaceship, looking at the scenery inside, hesitating and not daring to go in.

"Let me see these spider webs." Ye Nan reached out and grabbed a handful of spider webs. He immediately felt a slight, imperceptible resistance.

"It's ordinary spider web. It doesn't look like a trap."

Ye Nan's words made Duan Yan and Storm Ororo breathe a sigh of relief together.

Both of them were also afraid that these spider webs were some special spider webs, for example, the spider webs were covered with corrosive liquid, or these spider webs had super strong stickiness. In short, they were afraid that there was some trap inside, a trap unique to Aliens.

"It looks like it's just spider webs spat out unintentionally by an Alien that parasitized a spider." Storm Ororo said with a smile: "Look at us, actually fearing this and that for a non-existent thing."

"That's true." Ye Nan nodded, acknowledging Storm Ororo's guess, but in his heart, he always felt something was wrong, but he couldn't think of what was wrong.

The three of them, who had confirmed that the spider webs were just ordinary spider webs, stepped in. The moment they entered, the expressions of the three changed at the same time.

In front of them, the corpse of a blonde woman lay straight on the ground, her face twisted, as if she had experienced some painful torture before death.

Ye Nan stepped forward, touched the blonde woman's body with his hand, and got some blood stains. Then he kneaded it twice, and asked with a pale face: "Did the Aliens that went out just now have any small Aliens?"

"No." Duan Yan shook his head. "All the Aliens were big Aliens."

"It seems an Alien has hatched." Ye Nan pointed to the blonde woman's corpse and said: "Look, there is a big hole in her chest. It should be the big hole drilled when the Alien hatched."

"Judging from the blood stains on the corpse and the stiffness of the body, she should have died less than an hour ago. That is to say, just an hour ago, a small Alien hatched." Ye Nan said calmly: "Do you know her?"

The reason he asked this irrelevant question was entirely because of the environment here.

The nameless island itself was not open, and after the spaceship crashed, the path to the nameless island was directly blocked. Wanting to come in was harder than ascending to heaven. Generally speaking, those who came in were elites from various countries.

Ye Nan didn't know what abilities the elites from various countries had. What he was afraid of was that new mutant Aliens, mutant Aliens that inherited the power of the elites, would hatch on the bodies of the elites from various countries.

"I hope it's not what I think. I hope this woman is just an ordinary agent."

"She should be Green Girl." Duan Yan took a look and recognized her. "An agent, but very long-lived. As for her ability, it's about converting hemoglobin into chlorophyll and using photosynthesis to replace the ability to obtain energy from food. That is to say, she doesn't need to eat."

"There is this kind of mutant?" Ye Nan was a bit surprised. He had never heard of Green Girl, and he had never seen her in movies.

"Could it be some small movie I haven't seen?" Ye Nan muttered in his heart. There were countless movies on Earth in his previous life. Except for some famous movies he had seen, he hadn't even heard of other movies, let alone seen them. He guessed that this Green Girl was probably a character in some movie he had never heard of....

"There is. Mr. Douglas once studied her parents, but unfortunately, the research failed. It is said that it was because there were major defects in her genes." Duan Yan said.

"Defects? What defects?" Ye Nan asked. He could be sure that the Alien had already hatched from Green Girl's body. He didn't know what kind of changes the Alien that inherited Green Girl's genes would produce, but he knew that if he mastered the defects in the genes, he could easily deal with that Alien.

"I don't know either." A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Duan Yan's mouth. "Douglas has many laboratories, and he has many materials. I only heard about the experiment of Green Girl's parents. I don't know much about the specific details."

"Since that's the case, let's kill it while it hasn't grown up yet." Ye Nan made a throat-slitting gesture.

Ordinary Aliens were troublesome enough. If mutant Aliens with special abilities evolved, Ye Nan didn't know how to deal with them.

"Then these..." Duan Yan pointed to the cocoons hanging on the wall and also made a throat-slitting gesture.

"That's not good." Storm Ororo hesitated for a moment and advised: "These people are not dead yet. If we strike like this, isn't it too cruel?"

Storm Ororo was a mutant. She regarded all mutants as her own kind. If she met them on the battlefield, she naturally wouldn't show mercy. But this was not a battlefield, at least not a battlefield of mutants against mutants. These mutants trapped in cocoons had no threat at all. She didn't want, and wasn't willing, to see her own kind killed.

"Cruel? Hmph, when the Alien absorbs their genes and comes out of their bodies, that's what's called cruel, not only to them, but also to us." Ye Nan snorted coldly and said: "Storm Ororo, you wouldn't be a Virgin Mary, would you? If you are a Virgin Mary, then please leave, don't come to drag me down."

"Ororo, do you see the miserable appearance of this woman?" Duan Yan pointed to the blonde woman with a twisted face. "This woman died in pain because her chest was broken open by an Alien. Are you willing to watch them all die like this?"

"We are not killing them, but saving them. Saving them from pain."

Storm Ororo thought it was reasonable, so she closed her mouth. She wasn't a kind-hearted person originally; she just didn't want to see innocent compatriots die miserably before her eyes. Now that she had the excuse Duan Yan gave her, she immediately put down the burden with peace of mind.

"This Duan Yan..." Ye Nan took a look at Duan Yan and felt that he had changed a lot. He still remembered that Duan Yan was a person who spoke unreliably and hoped to be glib. The current Duan Yan had changed a lot. Was it pressure, or was the previous him just a disguise, a disguise for strangers?

The only opposing Storm Ororo no longer opposed, so Ye Nan walked up. He first listened to the heartbeat inside with his ears, confirmed that the Alien inside was still gestating, and immediately took action, breaking open the swelling flesh tumor above.

Pfft!

A small creature with six legs and a slender tail rushed out from inside, and with lightning speed, rushed to Ye Nan's front, wanting to drill into Ye Nan's mouth and parasitize Ye Nan.

"Facehugger." Seeing the creature crawling out of the flesh tumor, Ye Nan's expression changed.

He was too familiar with the image of this bug: the larval form of an Alien, the product of Alien egg hatching. This creature called Facehugger would drill into a person's body through the person's mouth.

Not only did it reproduce itself, but the Facehugger sometimes also undertook the Alien Queen's reproductive function. It injected Alien embryos into the creature's body to cultivate new Facehuggers...

If such a creature were allowed to drill into his body, Ye Nan could imagine the scene of his body being broken open by an Alien.

"Damn it, such a disgusting thing, don't touch me." Ye Nan blocked his mouth with his left hand and punched out with his right hand, knocking the rushing Facehugger against the wall.

"Strong wind." Storm Ororo's eyes were white, and a small storm slowly formed inside the spaceship.

"Be careful, don't make too much noise. My mental barrier won't be able to block it." Duan Yan said softly.

"Hmm." Storm Ororo nodded. The storm, which was originally spinning constantly and making a violent sound and momentum, changed, turning into an ordinary whirlwind, trapping the Facehugger. "My power is too restricted inside the spaceship. You do it."

Hearing this, Ye Nan reached out and slashed across the Facehugger's body. Soon, the Facehugger's whole body was covered in wounds, and a large amount of blood flowed from its body to the ground, corroding small holes in the spaceship.

"Not having a weapon that can resist the Alien's corrosive blood makes me too restrained when facing creatures like Aliens." Ye Nan said slowly, "I can only use this method to make it bleed to death."

All along, Ye Nan had firmly believed that his body was the best weapon. But now, he found how much trouble his philosophy had caused him. Without a weapon, when facing a race like Aliens whose blood contained strong acid, he was at such a disadvantage.

"Don't worry, when we see the Alien Queen, I will take action and kill the Alien Queen." Storm Ororo said.

The Facehugger jumped on the ground for a while, then stopped jumping, and its whole body became shriveled because of the loss of blood.

Slap!

A footstep sound came from afar. An Alien with a whole body of bone, with only a layer of skin wrapped around the bone, walked over from afar. The head of this Alien was like an enlarged locust, embedded in the bone.

"Sentry?" Ye Nan's heart moved. This Alien, about two meters tall, was exactly the Sentry in "Alien 1", an Alien hatched from human genes, with a sturdy body, but relatively slow movements.

"Could this spaceship be the interstellar ship 'Nostromo' in 'Alien 1'."

"Everyone be careful, don't move." Duan Yan exhorted.

"Why did it come over? Could it be that it heard the commotion here?" Storm Ororo looked vigilantly at this Alien, which was clearly different from other Aliens.

"Probably because the Facehugger's blood corroded the spaceship's steel plate, attracting it over, but..." Ye Nan moved suddenly, "Battle."

Ye Nan punched the Sentry's head, making a bang sound.

"Very hard head."

Ye Nan said, his voice a bit relaxed.

Judging from the appearance of this Alien Sentry, there was only a small amount of blood in its body. Facing this kind of Alien, Ye Nan was not afraid at all.

"Damn it, Ye Nan, why did you strike without authorization?" Duan Yan cursed, manipulating the mental barrier to wrap the Alien Sentry, "Ororo, I have controlled its movements."

"Alright." Hearing this, Ororo's eyes were silver-white, and a small dark cloud formed above the spaceship. The originally bright spaceship suddenly became gloomy.

The Alien Sentry was punched back repeatedly by Ye Nan. Before it could counterattack, it was bound by an invisible barrier, and then a lightning bolt struck down from above, hitting the Alien Sentry.

Only to see strands of blue smoke rising from the Alien Sentry's body, and its whole body collapsed on the ground.

"Dead, so easily?" Storm Ororo, who was preparing for a second strike, looked at the Alien lying on the ground, feeling a bit surprised.

"This is an Alien Sentry." Ye Nan explained: "A kind of Alien hatched from human genes, completely different from the Aliens outside."

Ye Nan pointed to the Alien Sentry on the ground and continued: "Look at its head, there are no eyes on it, because they don't need to observe things through eyes. If we continue to stay there, the risk is too great."

"Plus, with such a big commotion, no more Aliens came out, which is enough to prove that there are not many Aliens left in the spaceship." (To be continued.
