Chapter 135: Spaceship (Part 1) Seeking Subscription Support

~7 min read 1,389 words

Sun Cheng was actually injured!

After the stinging pain on his cheek finally made him realize this, he didn't care about the dirt once he reacted; subconsciously, he rolled on the spot to leave his original position, then raised the weapon in his hand and fired in the direction from which the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground had come.

"Da-da-da... Da-da-da..."

The spurting fire snakes were particularly conspicuous in the dark night, and the ejected shell casings landed on the road surface from time to time, emitting crisp, light sounds.

"Master..."

Vengeance suddenly flew over, and a single sentence made him stop shooting: "It escaped..."

"Escaped? Was it a Ghost?"

Sun Cheng was stunned, then immediately reacted and stopped shooting, while his brows also furrowed.

"Yes!"

Vengeance replied coldly; listening carefully, one could also hear a hint of doubt in its voice, "My blowdart definitely hit it!"

Sun Cheng hurriedly ran toward the direction where the Ghost Hunter had fallen; as soon as he arrived, he saw a lot of grass-green blood splattered on the ground, emitting a faint fluorescence in the night!

Looking at the blood on the ground, Sun Cheng then looked toward the woods, and sure enough, he saw some bloodstains again not far away.

He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately dismissed the thought of chasing after it; clearly, he also knew that wanting to play cat-and-mouse with these natural hunters in the jungle at night was simply having a death wish!

"Forget about it, let's go to the spaceship first!"

This Ghost must be injured now, though it was unclear whether it was wounded by that Tyrannosaurus or by Vengeance's blowdart.

But regardless of which, it was certain that it was definitely not having a good time right now.

A sound of flapping wings suddenly came from beside his ear; Sun Cheng turned his face to look, and sure enough, he saw Hanwei flying over. On one of its extended mechanical arms, it was carrying a disc with all six blades popped out—wasn't that the standard cold weapon equipped by the Hunters: a throwing disc!

"So it was a throwing disc..."

Reaching out to wipe the wound on his cheek, Sun Cheng felt lingering fear in his heart. These Ghosts were truly too difficult to deal with; relying on the Optical Stealth Net equipped on their bodies to launch sudden attacks, even the most elite soldier-king wouldn't dare say they could survive.

If Vengeance hadn't vigilantly discovered the opponent attempting to attack him and fired the blowdart just now, he probably really would have died here.

"Roar..."

From deep within the woods, an angry roar came again. Sun Cheng hurriedly stood up, took the throwing disc from Hanwei's hand, stuffed it into the Spherical Space, and then ran toward the road, "Go, let's leave here quickly..."

That Tyrannosaurus was coming. Listening to the angry roar, it wasn't hard to guess that the Ghost from just now should have already had a run-in with this Tyrannosaurus, and very likely had even injured it, otherwise it wouldn't be so furious.

An enraged beast was undoubtedly terrifying, let alone the fact that the opponent was a prehistoric giant beast. Sun Cheng didn't want to be targeted by it, so he directly took to his heels and continued to rush toward the spaceship, which was not far away.

The E Zone was not very large, and most of the area was encompassed by a mountain forest, with a Canyon running through it; the terrain was indeed complex!

Sun Cheng ran fast, and a few minutes later, he could no longer hear the sound of that Tyrannosaurus behind him. But when a damaged off-road vehicle could be clearly seen ahead on the road, Hanwei's prompt also sounded, "Master, we have arrived at the location; the spaceship is in the Canyon below..."

"Trouble!"

Sun Cheng stopped his steps and looked around. This place was located above a Canyon, and high-voltage electric fences several meters high were pulled up on both sides of the road. However, although the electricity was on now, one could not feel the slightest bit of safety here, because the electric fence on the right side of the road leading to the cage where the Tyrannosaurus was held had been violently torn apart, and the electric fence on the left side of the road near the Canyon was no better, also broken into a huge gap.

With a heavy heart, he first came to the off-road vehicle to take a look; he did not find any wounded, corpses, or much blood inside the vehicle.

However, the ground nearby was a mess; it was obvious that not long ago, this place had encountered an attack. Looking at those muddy footprints on the road, it went without saying that the attacker was that Tyrannosaurus still wandering around the E Zone.

Looking down carefully, besides the muddy footprints left by the Tyrannosaurus on the road, there were also several tire tracks and large pools of blood.

Sun Cheng followed the bloodstains to one side of the road and stood still, only to find that in front of him was the remnant of a small destroyed building. From the few toilet bowls that were not completely destroyed, it was not hard to infer that this was a roadside public toilet built on the island.

"Someone must have hidden in the public toilet, but was still attacked by the Tyrannosaurus!"

Searching nearby and finding no corpse, Sun Cheng immediately understood that this unlucky fellow had probably already been buried in the belly of the Tyrannosaurus, and couldn't help but sigh for them.

Turning back to look again, after walking only a few steps, he immediately found several pieces of torn alloy skin; judging by the appearance and shape, they should also have come from a Humvee.

Searching carefully, Sun Cheng found another long mark on the ground rubbed by paint not far away. Following the trajectory all the way, he actually walked to the very edge of the road. Stretching his head out from the break in the high-voltage electric fence to look into the Canyon below the road, he only felt that the Canyon was filled with clouds and mist.

He hurriedly took out a glow stick found in the security room, twisted it on, and threw it down!

"Whew..."

The glow stick drew a vertical trajectory in mid-air as it fell, but soon, because it hit something, it was bounced far away and finally disappeared into the depths of the clouds and mist.

However, although the time was short, with the help of the glow stick, Sun Cheng still vaguely saw some things.

"This Canyon is not very deep, at most twenty or thirty meters, but it's not very clear down below..."

Just now, with the help of the glow, Sun Cheng vaguely saw some jagged, intersecting things below, but what exactly they were was not very clear.

He hesitated for a moment, then immediately ordered Hanwei: "Hanwei, you fly down from here to explore the situation in the Canyon, and then come back to report to me..."

"Yes, Master!"

Hanwei flapped its metal wings, which were as thin as cicada wings, and descended from in front of him, soon losing its shadow.

Sun Cheng was bored for a moment and looked left and right, trying to find a safe route down nearby.

Who would have thought that when his gaze swept over a certain spot on the road not far from the public toilet, he suddenly saw some mysterious bumps on the ground, so he couldn't help but raise his gun to aim there and walked over slowly.

Approaching to take a look, Sun Cheng discovered that he hadn't seen wrong; these slightly uneven places on the ground were some thin alloy plates, which should be the walls of the public toilet.

Underneath the alloy plates, something seemed to be pressed, faintly appearing somewhat raised.

PS:

1. Thanks to reader 'Tingjian Jiman Manyan' for the tip!

2. The subscription numbers are horrendous. I kneel and beg brothers who are able to come to Qidian to support the legitimate version. The cost of a month's subscription will definitely not exceed the price of a pack of cigarettes; everyone just needs to smoke one less cigarette a day!
