Chapter 57 Direct Attack on the Heart of the Dragon
At this moment, Zhan Lan said somewhat anxiously:
"Oh dear, what if these people encounter aliens outside?"
Zhang Jie sneered, "You can't reason with someone who's determined to die. What can you do if they're determined to do something stupid?"
"No, I don't care if these people live or die. I'm worried they'll be infected by aliens, which would make things more difficult for us!"
Zhan Lan explained, sounding quite annoyed.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Zha and the others' expressions turned somewhat unpleasant.
Geralt hadn't seen the Alien movie, but based on Janlan's answer, he asked:
"You mean that monsters like the Xenomorph can reproduce by parasitizing humans?"
Zhan Lan nodded and said, "That's right. The facehugger, the larval form of the Xenomorph, can reproduce and mutate into the Xenomorph by parasitizing humans."
Upon hearing Zhan Lan's words, Geralt immediately understood the disgusting nature of the Xenomorph.
Li Xiaoyi's expression also changed drastically as he said:
"Let's go and bring them back now!"
Zheng Zha and the others were immediately intrigued and prepared to go out and give it a try.
At this moment, Chu Xuan spoke:
"I suggest we abandon those people. We're completely unfamiliar with the terrain outside, and those people are very fast. Plus, they don't trust you, so I think it will be very difficult to find them."
"And even if we catch up with those people, we don't have the extra energy to manage them."
"Not to mention that while defending against alien attacks, you also have to keep an eye on those people."
At this point, Chu Xuan paused, then looked intently at Geralt and said:
"I don't know exactly how strong you are after being enhanced by the Supreme God, but you shouldn't be strong enough to deal with the aliens while simultaneously controlling those seven people!"
At this moment, the Overlord also spoke:
"I agree with Chu Xuan's statement. Although it is very inhumane, the reason why prisoners are sometimes not taken on the battlefield is because there is no extra manpower to manage them."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Zha's face showed a struggle.
Geralt remained silent; finding those people was actually an extremely simple matter for him.
Geralt had already memorized the scents of those people, and as long as he remained on this spaceship, he could find them by their scent.
However, Geralt didn't want to find those guys.
Zheng Zha and the others knew that Geralt would definitely find those guys, but those guys couldn't survive, but they also couldn't die at their hands.
Everything was their choice; Zheng Zha had given them a chance from the beginning.
Zheng Zha's struggle at this moment lies precisely in this point.
At this moment, Chu Xuan looked at Zhang Jie and raised the watch on his wrist, and said:
"Our mission this time is to kill the Alien Queen. Each person will be rewarded with one D-level side quest and 1000 reward points."
"Therefore, based on the priority of completing the mission, we can go straight to the heart of the matter and end this horror movie as quickly as possible."
"The longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for us."
At this moment, Zhan Lan continued:
"That's right. At first I thought it was the plot of Alien 1, but after seeing the mission of the main god, I realized that this horror movie is most likely a combination of Alien 1 and 2."
"After all, the Alien Queen didn't appear in the first Alien movie; she only appeared in the second movie."
"And when Zhang Jie said that the main god had changed the difficulty of the plot, it further confirmed my thoughts."
Chu Xuan keenly grasped the information and asked:
"So, the difficulty of a horror movie is determined by the number of people in each showing?"
After listening, Zhang Jie explained, "That's right. Besides the strength of the reincarnators, the number of people attending each horror movie screening is also a crucial determining factor."
Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses and said:
"I understand. Then I suggest we go to the ship's main control room now. After we bring up the ship's monitoring screen and topographic map there, we should be able to find the location of the alien queen."
At this moment, Zheng Zha spoke up and questioned:
"You mentioned earlier that the terrain outside is unfamiliar to everyone, so how are we going to find the spaceship's main control room?"
Chu Xuan's eyes were calm, and he spoke slowly:
"If my deduction is correct, there should be a simple pipeline map on the nearby wall, which must indicate the location of the energy room."
"Based on the design concept of aircraft, the main control room is usually located below the bridge, near the power room."
"This allows for the shortest possible energy transmission distance, ensuring the stability of the main control system."
Zheng Zha listened but didn't understand, but felt that what Chu Xuan said seemed true, so he stopped arguing.
At this moment, Tang Zichen said with an unpleasant expression:
"No matter where you go, get out of here quickly, I have a very bad feeling."
The others didn't take it seriously, but Li Shuaixi's expression changed and he quickly urged:
"Listen to Sister Tang, let's move quickly, or it will be too late."
Geralt and the others had already realized that Li Shuaixi must have recognized Tang Zichen's background, so his words were probably not unfounded.
Without hesitation, Geralt said to Chu Xuan, "You lead the way, let's hurry to the ship's main control room."
Chu Xuan nodded and walked out first, followed closely by Geralt and the others.
At this moment, Geralt followed behind Chu Xuan, both to observe the situation from the front and to protect Chu Xuan.
Tang Zichen was to Geralt's right, half a body length behind.
Geralt asked Tang Zichen directly and sincerely:
"You just mentioned a sense of impending danger. Is that some kind of ability or magic you possess?"
"Could you introduce it to me?"
"I think this ability of yours is especially useful in horror movies."
When Tang Zichen heard Geralt's question, she didn't try to hide anything, but answered straightforwardly:
"It's not magic; it's a spiritual realm I unexpectedly grasped during my practice of traditional Chinese martial arts!"
"I call it the Way of Sincerity."
After hearing Tang Zichen's words, Chu Xuan, who was in front, turned around with great interest and interjected:
"Sincerity leads to foreknowledge; this saying comes from the Doctrine of the Mean."
The original meaning is roughly that when a person reaches the ultimate level of sincerity, they can have a near-predictive ability about the future.
"Can your premonitions only apply to dangerous situations?"
Tang Zichen glanced at Chu Xuan and said, "That's right, I can only foresee aspects related to my own safety."
"To be unseen and unheard, to sense danger and avoid it—a truly remarkable spiritual state."
"It seems that the martial arts you speak of, which only kill and don't perform, are quite extraordinary."
Chu Xuan sincerely praised.
At this moment, Li Xiaoyi interjected:
"Sister Tang's danger perception ability is a lot like the sixth sense from Saint Seiya!"
"Sister Tang, are you able to predict the direction of the enemy's attack without using your eyes?"
Tang Zichen smiled but did not reply.
However, Li Shuaixi, who knew Tang Zichen's background, knew that Tang Zichen could indeed avoid danger automatically without looking or listening when fighting.
