Chapter 227: Alien Drone

~9 min read 1,766 words

"Interesting world, perfect gene..."

Behind Ye Nan and the others, a pair of small eyes growing on flesh roots rose from the small hole corroded away, looking at the gradually receding Ye Nan, exceptionally excited.

"Let me see the perfect gene, on the fragile body of humans, how much power it can exert."

Ye Nan, who was vigilantly walking forward, naturally wouldn't notice the little thing behind.

"Alien DNA has something called an optimization setting, which means that in the Alien's genes, a blank space will be left, and this blank space will be filled by the host's genes."

"This is the most terrifying thing about Aliens. By finding the host's DNA, they adapt to the surrounding environment. Whether it's the Alien Sentry we just encountered or the Dinosaur Alien, their strength and appearance are caused by this optimization setting."

"And the Alien Sentry is filled with human genes, and its form is also close to humans. However, as humans who are useless except for wisdom and reproduction, the Alien it gestates is the weakest and closest to the primitive Alien state."

"What right do you have to say humans are weak?" Storm Ororo couldn't help it when she heard Ye Nan criticize humans like this, saying humans were useless. "You are also a human. You say humans are weak, doesn't that mean you are weak?"

"I didn't say humans are weak." Ye Nan shrugged indifferently. "Where did you see me say humans are weak?"

"Useless humans, weakest Alien, these words, did you say them?" Storm Ororo questioned: "How are humans weak? Just by relying on those big guys outside? Hmph, they are just playthings of humans."

"The premise of being useless is that the Alien cannot inherit the advantages of humans." Ye Nan explained for his words, "Wisdom doesn't need to be said, that is a mysterious field, and reproduction."

Ye Nan suddenly sneered, "If a race has only one Queen, a Queen responsible for reproduction, what will happen if there is one more?"

"They will fight, and the loser will leave the nest." Duan Yan took over Ye Nan's words and said in a deep voice, "Just like ants, once a new ant queen appears, a battle will inevitably occur. The winner occupies the nest, and the weak one leaves the nest to find a new place to live."

Duan Yan's voice became deeper and deeper, "But the Alien race is different. Their intelligence level is quite high, and they will definitely not leave a threat. This..." Duan Yan pondered for a moment, then continued: "Just like human thoughts, exterminating the enemy."

High intelligence brings desire. Uncontrollable desire. On this point, humans are a model. Because of desire, humans can do all kinds of things that break the moral bottom line.

"Only in this way can I be sure that the Alien Sentry is the most primitive Alien and also the weakest." Ye Nan murmured: "But mutants are different."

"On mutants, there are genes that Aliens need and can utilize. These genes will fill the blank space in Alien genes. That's why I killed those people, those captives with special abilities."

"I understand." Storm Ororo nodded and fell silent, then suddenly laughed, "Sorry."

"No need to say sorry." Ye Nan also laughed along, his smile carrying a hint of relaxation.

Storm Ororo was his teammate, a temporary teammate. If this teammate was disgusted by his behavior, it would cause trouble for the action.

Fortunately, this teammate figured it out.

"Let's go." Duan Yan couldn't help but interrupt the two's conversation. Watching the two smile at each other, a nerve deep in his heart was severed. That was a string, a string called jealousy....

The three wanted to go, but they stopped. In front of them was an Alien.

An Alien about the same size as the previous Alien Sentry, but its skeleton and body were more slender than the previous Alien Sentry, its claws were curved, and there was an extra layer of folds on both sides of its head.

"Alien Drone?" Ye Nan's brow was already furrowed the moment this Alien appeared.

This wasn't to say that this Alien was more powerful and trickier for him than the previous one, but the meaning of this Alien's appearance.

Aliens were a race good at lurking and sneak attacks. They possessed intelligence and combat instincts beyond ordinary beasts. They absolutely couldn't just stand there and have a knight-like contest with you.

But this Alien clearly violated common sense. Rather than saying they met, it was better to say it was deliberately waiting here, waiting for Ye Nan and the others to discover it.

While Ye Nan was thinking, the Alien Drone suddenly moved. It attacked Ye Nan and the others fiercely, just like a drone.

Eight sharp fingers arrived in front of Ye Nan in the blink of an eye.

"This Alien." Ye Nan's expression was like water. He just blocked the Alien's attack with his fist in front of him.

Shh!

A sharp sound was made between the Alien's claws and Ye Nan's arm, making Ye Nan frown.

Slap!

Ye Nan backhanded a punch, hitting the Alien's head, knocking the Alien away.

"This feeling, like iron." Ye Nan thought to himself.

The Alien Drone's body was all bone. He didn't know if the bone wrapped its skin or if the bone was exposed, but it didn't change one fact, which was that it was very hard.

Like steel, smashing into its body, Ye Nan felt like he had smashed into an iron-built body, and his fingertips were shaken in pain.

Hiss!

The Alien Drone was hit by Ye Nan and immediately became angry. It screamed unknown syllables and rushed toward Ye Nan, tail, claws, and sharp teeth all coming up.

"Everyone attack together, no need to worry about causing a commotion." Ye Nan roared and rushed toward the Alien Drone first.

Seeing Ye Nan coming, the Alien Drone immediately raised its tail and lashed fiercely.

Only to see a tail lash on Ye Nan's body, tearing his clothes to shreds, but that was just it.

The Alien Drone felt like it had lashed onto a piece of steel, not causing any commotion to the enemy, but instead bouncing its own tail back.

Hearing Ye Nan's words, Storm Ororo didn't have time to think carefully and immediately summoned a tornado to surround the Alien Drone.

"Ye Nan, you... sigh!" Duan Yan wanted to say something, but seeing the commotion caused by Storm Ororo, he could only turn it into a sigh.

He immediately took action, and strands of mental power turned into a whip, lashing at the Alien Drone's body.

"Don't you think there's a problem?" Ye Nan punched the Alien's head, making the Alien sink. "When this Alien appeared, it was deliberately waiting for us."

"It's like a knight challenging us, wanting to defeat us openly."

"But this doesn't fit the Alien's habits. As a creature with low intelligence, their actions are sometimes dominated by instinct."

"The Alien's instinct is slaughter, and for the sake of slaughter, they use every possible means."

"But this Alien is different. It's too open and aboveboard, to the point that I have doubts. I suspect the Alien Queen has already discovered us."

Seeing the Alien jump up again, Ye Nan hurriedly changed his fist into a claw and grabbed down, crushing the bones on the Alien's chest.

"The Queen discovered us? How is that possible?" Duan Yan stopped attacking, looking incredulous.

From just now until now, they had been cautious, and the Queen resided on the bottom floor of the spaceship, very far from here. Wanting to hear the sound here was fundamentally impossible....

"What if she is under our feet." Ye Nan turned his head toward the direction they came from, his eyes looking at the small hole corroded by the Facehugger's blood.

Duan Yan looked over along Ye Nan's gaze, and his mouth immediately turned into an 'O' shape, "This position, how is it possible, unless the Facehugger's blood can corrode the three decks of the spaceship."

"Why not? Don't underestimate the Alien's blood, they are too terrifying." Ye Nan punched the Alien's head again, hitting the Alien Drone against the wall, making a bang-bang sound.

"Every Alien is different. For example, this Alien Drone, it doesn't have blood at all." Ye Nan followed up, kicked out, and at the same time raised his right foot and kicked horizontally, not giving the Alien Drone a shred of breathing room.

"If the Alien Queen had known about us long ago, then..." Duan Yan turned his head and stared fixedly at the Alien Drone, "She wants to treat us as prey."

"I'm afraid it's not just that." Under Ye Nan's attack, the Alien Drone had no power to fight back, "To be precise, it should be treating this spaceship as a coliseum, we are the beasts, and the Alien is the beastmaster."

"Although I don't like this metaphor, you are right." Duan Yan said silently. Mental power began to exert its power, and a series of mental storms formed inside the Alien Drone's mind, fiercely beating its mind. The Alien, which was originally beaten by Ye Nan without fighting back, began to groan.

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

The Alien Drone wailed in pain. Under Duan Yan's mental storm, the Alien Drone's two claws hugged its head, curled up on the ground, and rolled around.

"But since you want to treat us as beasts in a coliseum, I will make you 'humans' wail under my storm."

"Such a strong attack." Ye Nan watched Duan Yan exert his power, weighing it in his heart.

Duan Yan and Storm Ororo were the same kind of people, belonging to those with powerful strength but weak defense, just like mages in games. Although the attack was powerful, they themselves were very fragile and needed warriors to protect them. Only in this way could they exert the greatest attack power.

"Mental blast."

Duan Yan silently recited in his heart, a group of mental consciousness rushed into the Alien Drone's mind and exploded fiercely.

Slap!

The Alien Drone rolling on the ground suddenly stopped, its whole body lying on the ground, motionless.

Pfft!

Duan Yan felt a sweetness in his mouth and groaned, forcibly swallowing the blood that rushed up. He looked at the Alien that had died thoroughly and remained silent. (To be continued.
