Chapter 15 Indigenous creatures

The temperature below the cave under the ice layer is negative forty-two degrees.

Zhang Shaoyuan was staring at the things in front of him.

His integrated automatic lighting equipment sensed the controlled movements and body position and quickly adjusted the lighting direction, facing forward.

There, there was a "living creature" at the location where the radar showed, and that was not any of them, nor a drone.

It is translucent, grayish white, about the size of an old-fashioned mailbox.

In other words, its body is light gray, covered with hair about ten centimeters long, but it is translucent and light white.

These translucent "hair" swing gently like life, changing the color bit by bit, as if it was about to make the body covered by the "hair" more transparent, just like it did not exist.

This appearance makes it as unobvious as a chameleon in this almost absolute dark environment, and is easily overlooked.

In this dark environment, you can glance at the lights and if you don’t take a closer look, you won’t even realize that there is such a thing there.

And just now, this thing was the one who made Zhang Shaoyuan's team send out a series of alarms.

It has no body temperature.

The outer layer of "hair" is not used for insulation, but for some natural defense organ.

Moreover, just now, it was still moving, and it was completely discovered and the light shone, and it stopped moving. It was like a strange coral or other plankton aquatic creature, with only the "hair" on its body swinging in and out.

It doesn't move.

It gives people the feeling that a person who has never seen the light before saw the light and thought it was something particularly dangerous, but was so scared that he dared not move.

For a moment, it became quiet.

No one in the team spoke, and they only rely on gestures to communicate. Because the signal is disturbed, their internal communication devices have been turned off. At this time, opening means real sound.

And making a sound may alarm the thing in this position.

Zhang Shaoyuan made several gestures, instructing the two soldiers to move slowly and encircle them with weapons, while he brought four other soldiers to attract attention and slowly approached.

This translucent creature seems to have no "eyes".

This may have something to do with the dark environment here, but it means it has other ways to perceive and cannot determine whether it is aggressive.

Zhang Shaoyuan did not intend to retreat. He was a soldier of the Xinjing Fleet and a person in the interstellar era. He also carried weapons on his hands. If this creature was really a creature, it would obviously not be a high-end thing. At most, it was a "wild animal from a different planet."

The most important thing is that their task is to discover, detect, confirm and eliminate risks.

Zhang Shaoyuan wanted to bring a sample on it, so he planned to capture it alive.

The previous judgment seemed to be correct. It was very timid. Under Zhang Shaoyuan's light, it shrank and did not dare to move.

However, Zhang Shaoyuan noticed that with the approaching of the six people on his side, the swing frequency of the translucent hair that was slowly swinging without wind was increasing.

Obviously, it sensed the approaching and felt nervous, but dared not move.

The whole process was smooth, and this was a timid and cowardly creature.

The distance is getting closer little by little.

Zhang Shaoyuan and others did not dare to be careless, and they were very cautious in every step of their progress.

Ten meters.

Five meters...

Three meters...

At this moment, the translucent thing suddenly moved, and the translucent hairs curled up suddenly burst out one by one. Zhang Shaoyuan saw that the pores of the body were exaggeratedly opened, making a harsh scream.

If the sound that makes the eardrum vibrate and instantly feel nauseous is called screaming.

And this is still separated from the space suit!

Zhang Shaoyuan's face changed immediately.

And at this moment, Chen Jia, who was at the back, suddenly said: "Captain, something is approaching in front of our left!"

A sharp roar.

The soldier standing in front of Chen Shaoyuan suddenly groaned and was hit hard by something. His body suddenly paused forward. One of them stood unsteadily and almost fell to the ground.

"There are enemies!"

The translucent thing suddenly roared, and his body jumped up on the spot for some reason, and it could jump up more than seven meters high. It suddenly "flyed" over Zhang Shaoyuan and his surroundings like a flea. In a silent manner, a few jumps disappeared into the darkness.

On the front of the left, a black shadow was rushing towards him, and while rushing towards him, he threw out some huge ice cones and ice cubes.

Xie Wenbo rushed up immediately and helped the warrior who was knocked up - in fact, the warrior was just knocked down by a half-man-high ice that suddenly threw from the darkness. Before being hit, the consciousness he trained and cultivated had already made him avoid the first move, but the ice was too big and he was still hit. However, although others were knocked down, they were not injured. The space combat uniform on his body resisted and absorbed 70% of the impact force.

And that huge piece of ice obviously cannot break the defense.

But everyone changed color slightly.

Being able to use items means something with certain intelligence.

There are actually living and intelligent creatures on such a planet?

Several rays of light shone instantly, and the attacker's figure was undoubtedly revealed.

It was a giant more than three meters tall. It looked like a spire, with thick black carapaces densely covered with thick black carapaces. Below it, there were eight thick, hard joints similar to crab legs to support its rapid movement. Under its body, there was something that seemed to be a head in the center of eight legs arranged in arc shapes, with many things like eyes and unknown hole-like organs on it. In addition, there were two huge knives on its spire-like body. These knives were extremely sharp and could easily tear the frozen ground and stir up huge ice cubes and hit it here.

This is the creature that attacked Zhang Shaoyuan's team.

Moreover, it moves very fast. It only took a few breaths from its appearance to now. In just a few seconds, it had rushed from a hundred meters away from Zhang Shaoyuan and the others to a position less than ten meters away. The huge dark body wrapped in strong wind seemed manic and terrifying under the light, like a family member of the evil god who ran out of the Cthulhu mythology.

But unfortunately, its attack failed to produce any effect, and the huge ice was shot through directly in the air. When it approached a sufficient distance, Zhang Shaoyuan, who had already replaced the weapon, directly fired an electric bomb.

Accompanied by a flash of light, the lightning on the terrifying spire creature flashed randomly, and then it fell down with a bang.
