Geralt of Rivia: The White Wolf

Chapter 59 Firefight

At this moment, the alien tail that had shattered Zhan Lan's left chest did not retract. Instead, the sharp tip of the tail, like a blade, aimed at Zhan Lan's still-shaken face and stabbed her fiercely once more.

Zhan Lan, who had fallen to the ground, had no time to dodge and could only watch helplessly as the slimy tail in front of her stabbed towards her.

At this moment, Tang Zichen, who was closest to Zhan Lan, suddenly exerted force with her waist and hips, and her front foot seemed to take a small half step forward, but her whole body seemed to be nailed to the ground.

Immediately following, he exerted force with his back foot, the power originating from his foot, and delivered a half-step punch that landed solidly on the side of the alien's tail.

Instantly, the alien tail that was aimed at Zhan Lan's face was knocked away and flung against the cabin wall next to her.

The hard shell on the alien's tail was also cracked by Tang Zichen's powerful punch.

Green, corrosive blood gushed from the crack in the tail shell, landing on the steel walls of the cabin with a sizzling sound.

Tang Zichen, on the other hand, suddenly grabbed Zhan Lan from the ground and quickly retreated, trying to get away from this area.

The next second, the alien that had been hit in the tail by Tang Zichen suddenly tore open the ventilation duct layer on top of its head and pounced on Tang Zichen.

Although the alien arrived later, it was faster and pounced on Tang Zichen and Zhan Lan in the blink of an eye.

Tang Zichen remained calm, took a quick step through the mud, turned and dived down, avoiding the alien's attack, and then came to the alien's left side.

Then, Tang Zichen seized the opportunity, swung her arm horizontally, and delivered a powerful forward blocking punch, which once again struck the alien's left chest solidly.

Before the two-meter-tall alien could turn around and launch another attack, it was sent flying by Tang Zichen's heavy punch, crashing into the wall behind it.

At this moment, Zhan Lan, who was being held in Tang Zichen's left arm, endured the sharp pain in her left chest, took out the Fusion Gun, aimed it at the alien that Tang Zichen had shot away, and quickly pulled the trigger.

The next second, the Fusion Gun fired a basketball-sized ball of high-heat energy, which slammed into the alien's smooth head.

In an instant, the alien's large head vanished, and the headless corpse fell to the ground, motionless.

Green, corrosive blood gushed from his neck, landing on the cabin floor with a sizzling sound.

Meanwhile, after Geralt severed the alien's tail with the Yamato, he immediately pulled out his Gauss pistol with unlimited ammo and fired at the top of its head.

Zheng Zha, standing next to him, did the same, taking out his Gauss pistol and aiming it at the vicinity where these alien tails appeared, repeatedly pulling the trigger.

The Gauss pistol was incredibly powerful; the bullets were fired without making a sound, and the ventilation duct above was shattered in the blink of an eye.

For a moment, Geralt and Zheng Zha lost count of how many shots they had fired, until they had completely destroyed the ventilation duct space above their heads before finally stopping.

"Two of them escaped."

Geralt said somewhat unwillingly.

Yes, with all the ventilation ducts overhead shattered by the Gauss pistol, the view above was completely exposed.

Only the corpses of two aliens remained. Geralt and Zheng Zha each killed one with their Gauss pistols. Including the one killed by Zhan Lan with her fusion gun, a total of three aliens were killed.

The two aliens that attacked Chu Xuan and Li Shuaixi fled when they saw that things were not going well.

At this moment, the battlefield returned to calm, and Zhu Peng's side used the powerful firepower of the rotary machine gun to kill an alien.

Only then did Zhan Lan have time to treat the injury to her chest.

Despite the pain, Zhan Lan frowned and took out a hemostatic spray from her trouser pocket, then used it to stop the bleeding from her injured left chest.

Then, Zhan Lan took out a roll of bandages and said, "Sister Zichen, could you help me wrap this?"

Without saying a word, Tang Zichen reached out and took the bandage, skillfully wrapping it around Zhan Lan's neck.

At the same time, Zheng Zha took out hemostatic spray and bandages and treated Li Shuaixi's shattered left scapula.

"Thanks, Brother Zheng Zha."

"If it weren't for you, I would be dead."

Li Shuaixi thanked Zheng Zha with lingering fear.

Zheng Zha looked at Li Shuaixi's pale face and patted Li Shuaixi's other uninjured shoulder reassuringly:

"Don't worry, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger."

At this moment, Zhu Peng ran over, carrying his rotary machine gun, and said with a somewhat grim expression:

"I didn't expect the alien's shell to be so tough. If it weren't for the fierce firepower of the rotary machine gun, we might not have been able to kill that alien."

Chu Xuan, who was standing next to him, chimed in:

"Indeed, the level of evolution of the Xenomorphs is beyond my expectations."

"It seems that ordinary firearms cannot do much damage to the aliens."

At this moment, Tang Zichen spoke:

"We'd better get going quickly, or we might not be able to leave."

Everyone's expression changed, and they immediately rushed back to the control room.

Chu Xuan said as he led the way:

"So, the few aliens that escaped earlier must have gone to call for help."

"I never expected there to be so many aliens on the ship."

Zhang Jie's face was grim as he said, "I knew it. With a difficulty level of 18 people, the main god definitely wouldn't let us off easily."

Although Chu Xuan said the situation was serious, his expression remained completely calm.

Chu Xuan then changed the subject, turning to Zheng Zha and Geralt to ask:

"Were the guns you just used some kind of futuristic technology?"

"I noticed that there was no sound or recoil when you fired."

Geralt remained silent, but Zheng Zha spoke up:

"A Gauss pistol with unlimited ammo. Thank goodness for Zhu Peng's recommendation."

"Otherwise, it's not that easy to repel the aliens, let alone kill them."

After hearing Zheng Zha's words, Chu Xuan feigned interest and said:

"I didn't expect it to be Gauss Technology. This is a technology product that is still in the theoretical stage in reality."

"So what kind of firearm did Zhan Lan use?"

"Do you have any extra firearms like these?"

Zheng Zha heard this and said helplessly:

"Besides Geralt and I each exchanging for a Gauss pistol, and Zhan Lan and Li Xiaoyi each exchanging for a Strong Fusion Gun."

"There are no other high-tech weapons."

Chu Xuan couldn't help but ask:

"Why are high-tech weapons so expensive to acquire?"

Zheng Zha explained, "It's not cheap, but it's not very expensive either."

Upon hearing this, Chu Xuan frowned, but did not press the matter further, instead falling into deep thought.

After seeing that Chu Xuan remained silent, Zheng Zha turned to Li Shuaixi, who was standing beside him with a pained expression and unsteady steps, and asked:

"How are you?"

"Do you need me to help you?"

Li Shuaixi forced an awkward smile and said:

"No need, Brother Zheng Zha, my left shoulder just hurts too much."

"My stamina is still up to par."
