Chapter 308 The Shadow of the Black Swan

Lu Mingfei opened his eyes and woke up from his sleep. Although there was no "tonic ganglion", he still remained alert during the light sleep.

What caught his eye was Chu Tianjiao with a solemn look on his face. "What's wrong?" he asked, looking around the interior of the cabin.

The cabin is warm and peaceful, isolated from the howling wind outside the window. When the snow blower is not working, the front window of the hovercraft has been covered with a thick layer of snow and frost; Zero is still curled up in the corner to rest, this child always seems to be close It’s a nightmare where you need to hold your hand to fall asleep.

Old Bunin was already awake. He was hiding under the porthole with a frightened expression, as if he had seen something terrifying.

"I was just going to wake you up...there is something watching us outside." Chu Tianjiao held his Murasame sword with a solemn expression.

"Ha... are they polar bears?" Fingel was also woken up, yawning - he was responsible for the last round of vigil. "They were awakened from hibernation by hunger and came out to look for food?"

Five days have passed since they set off from City 023. The supply stations marked on Bunin's map were either a legacy of the Soviet-era development of Siberia or were specially built for them by the aliens behind the scenes. These storage stations contained canned diesel, compressed The metal bunker of biscuits, canned beef and dehydrated vegetables gave the hovercraft enough confidence to reach the extremely cold Arctic Circle.

During this period, strong winds and blizzards never stopped. Traveling in this kind of weather is extremely risky. Not to mention that the sky and the earth are completely white and the visibility is extremely low. If there is something wrong with this hovercraft, it will stop. , then they would all be trapped and die in this uninhabited world of ice and snow with no communication signals.

"If it were a polar bear, there would be no need to wake you two up," Chu Tianjiao said, "and our Comrade Bunin wouldn't be so frightened by the polar bear."

Lu Mingfei stood up and walked to the porthole. The light source inside the hovercraft illuminated the snowflakes outside that were swirling like silver needles in the storm. People generally call this kind of bad weather "white-haired wind". Even experienced hunters will get lost in the white hair all over the sky until they are exhausted and freeze to death. There was once a "white-haired wind cannibalism" incident. "folklore.

"There's... there's a monster outside, Mr. Lu..." Old Bunin's voice was stiff, as if he was frightened.

But if "Baimao Feng cannibalizes people" is true, then what Lu Mingfei sees now may be the originator of the legend.

Outside the dark snowfield where the light source cannot reach, there are light spots like fireflies swaying. If you don't look carefully, they can be easily obscured by the falling snowflakes - of course there are no fireflies in this kind of place and weather. The eyes of some creatures are also firefly-like at night, such as wolves, leopards...

Pairs of pupils shining with dark golden light weakly illuminated their slender bodies, like strange figures in horror movies. They stood unaffected as if they had merged into the cold blizzard, spying on them. The only light and people in this darkness.

Of course, Lu Mingfei was not unfamiliar with this. He had killed various versions of these things - deadpool aliens whose dragon bloodline had exceeded the limit and had fallen, and now no longer belonged to humans.

"When did you find out?" he asked calmly.

"Just now... when I got up to go to the toilet, I always felt like something was staring at me from outside... and then I immediately informed Mr. Chu." Bunin was frightened, even though he could chat and laugh with high-level officials in the country and witnessed it with his own eyes. Although there are creatures in myths and legends, when encountering such a scene, human beings' fear of the unknown will still involuntarily envelope their hearts.

"To be honest, they didn't come close. It was hard for me to notice," Chu Tianjiao shrugged, indicating that this was by no means the responsibility of his negligence in keeping watch. "Maybe they will come when Brother Fingel is there."

"It doesn't matter, these guys are not enough for us to fight," Fingel didn't care about Chu Tianjiao's blame, and looked at Lu Mingfei eager to try, "Go out and kill them all?"

Lu Mingfei instinctively wanted to nod in agreement. No matter where these aliens came from, they must all be purified, but he calmed down: "It's a bit suspicious, wait a minute."

Zero woke up at some point. She was lying blankly in front of the porthole. Her beautiful ice blue pupils were dyed with a layer of brilliant gold, reflecting the slender ghosts in the darkness. Her body was trembling slightly. .

Lu Mingfei's eyes indicated that Fingel immediately understood that this kind of thing was just right for them, but it might be a bit inappropriate for children. So when he was about to go over to comfort Ling and take her away, Ling stretched out his finger and pointed at the window, his voice trembling:

"He is Yakov..."

Fingel was stunned.

"He is Sergei...she is Khorkina...Anton...Marov..." Zero counted the ghosts in the distance one by one and said their names, as if they were the ghosts she had seen for a long time. Just like friends who have known each other for many years, "the experimental children who grew up with me in Black Swan Port, as well as the nurses and soldiers... they are all there."

She turned her head and looked at Lu Mingfei with a pale face: "And I... and you... are also in there."

"There's nothing to be afraid of, kid, it's just a little trick of the alien." Lu Mingfei touched Ling's head and said gently, "Don't worry, no matter what is ahead, no matter what mission Lu Mingze forces you to perform... this time The journey will be over soon. Now get some rest."

His expression turned cold immediately: "Brother Fingal."

"Hey, hey, come on!" Fingel's face was full of eagerness. In Lu Mingfei's view, this was "eager to fight" and was a normal warrior's behavior.

"Then I'll stay here again?" Chu Tianjiao spread his hands helplessly.

"Your force and words are worthy of trust." Lu Mingfei nodded in approval.

"That's okay...then I won't interfere in the fight between you gods. Come on."

The cabin door opened, and the roar of the blizzard outside instantly amplified dozens of times. The wind, snow and freezing cold quickly poured into the cabin, but then Fingel thoughtfully closed the door.

"Rush over?"

"It's okay to change to another place, but not now. This is obviously a trap targeting me or Zero." Lu Mingfei said calmly, "Right here, blow them away."

"Hiss... I thought I was going to transform. Then I should go back and put on my military coat and go... I'm kidding, Commander." Fingel smiled coquettishly, climbed into the cabin wearing a wool vest and wool shorts, and took off his clothes. After taking off the necklace around his neck, he completed the first stage of dragon scale armor transformation in an instant. Obviously, he could not withstand the severe cold and strong wind of nearly 60 degrees below zero.

His ferocious and strong armor-covered fingers held a gray-white octagonal rune stone. Aiming at the group of bright-eyed Deadpools in the distance, its front was engraved with a dragon-shaped pattern composed of red lines, with a pitch-black bone surface. A dull and thunderous spell came from behind A:

"Jun Yan, start!"

The dragon talisman containing the power of "Jun Yan" was activated, and the alchemical matrix was activated to expand the field. Fingel's surging blood was frantically extracted by the talisman to replace the almost non-existent fire element here.

Amidst the thundering syllables, a fiery red sun briefly rose in the dark snowfield. The blazing light illuminated everything within a radius of three hundred meters, and also illuminated the faces of the dead waiters. Appearance - Some of their faces shrouded in torn black robes look like they have been severely burned and then re-healed, some look like they were hit head-on with heavy objects and have shocking dents, and some even look like two people fused face to face. Like...

The armor pieces composed of gray-white scales and the irregular patterns that look like wildly growing vines are not so much healing them as they are putting them together in another way that looks weird and crazy. To an ordinary person, one glance at their faces would probably Even though he has nightmares when he sleeps, Zero can actually recognize them and name them.

The extremely heated Jun Yan has condensed in front of Fingel's palm. This group of thin dead servants did not howl or charge... just like stone statues without any movement or reaction.

They just watched quietly as the fireball hit them with its shining flame tail. When it hit, it was as if someone had kicked over the furnace containing the sun. The fireball was as fierce as the firework pouring from molten iron. Cover and engulf them all!

"boom!"

The howling wind seemed to have stopped for a few seconds under this shocking explosion. The group of dead servants did not let out a single wailing scream, and the Jun Yan fire ball burned them into coke like an incinerator.

The fear of the people in the cabin was dispelled, and they looked at the light of fire not far away in shock. Especially Bunin, he didn't know when his hovercraft was equipped with an 85mm T-34 tank gun.

Lu Mingfei frowned slightly as the warm wind blew in his face, and noticed that there was still an alien standing, which seemed to have not been completely eliminated.

"Give it another small shot?" Fingel was obviously a little short of energy. The cost of using the Dragon Talisman in a place like this was too high.

"I'll go take a look." Lu Mingfei jumped off the hovercraft and walked quickly towards the explosion site, facing the rapidly cooling storm and the smell of burning.

The charred Deadpool seemed to notice Lu Mingfei's arrival, and its dark golden eyes instantly became bright and shining, reflecting its face that was somewhat similar to Lu Mingfei's -

Although this sounds a bit nonsense, that's how it feels to Lu Mingfei.

Is this what Zero just said? Are you here too?

"Silly trick, damn alien."

Lu Mingfei murmured to himself coldly. The metal prosthetic body of his left arm decomposed and ejected from the pitch-black muzzle. Two explosive bullets directly shattered the deadpool's head. Who it was and what genes it had had nothing to do with him.

Just as he turned around and walked away, in the darkness not far behind him, someone banged the clapper. Only the crisp, monotonous, empty, and weird sound of the clapper came riding on the whistling wind and snow, and then in front of Lu Mingfei. It took its place in his ears and penetrated into his mind.

Sorry, I should have updated it yesterday, but I wrote it down and tasted it myself. I felt that it was a running account + defense. This kind of thing is obviously not good, so I deleted it and rewritten it. Previously, I had fallen into the trap of pursuing the original work, but now I have come back and am ready to speed up.
