718 Pulse Killer
The enemy's movement was very fast. Lin Chi ran only two hundred meters away and heard a harsh gunshot sound from a position close to the inside of the volcano.
The "scientists" underground were one level higher in technology than those on the ground. The soldiers in space suits rushed out, and the pulse rifle in their hands began to shoot directly at Lin Chi.
The shining white light shone brightly into the underground cave. The slender "light bullets" swept over. One of them passed by Lin Chi, and the high temperature brought out made his body tremble.
——Unlike rifles that use live ammunition, pulse rifles are more deadly weapons in the hands of experienced soldiers.
These weapons that use high-energy batteries do not need to calculate the amount in advance when firing, so as to achieve the effect of "shoot wherever you point". The frequency of bullet replacement is much lower than that of live ammunition guns. The most important thing is that the bullets fired in this gun are extremely powerful...
Feeling the heat coming from his abdomen, Lin Chi looked down and saw that his protective suit had already started to catch fire after the blast. He rolled decisively on the ground twice, extinguished the flames on his body, and continued to run wildly in the enemy's firepower.
Although he was also using a light machine gun to fire at the enemy, the enemy's firepower had an overwhelming advantage. Faced with the rain of bullets from the side, Lin Chi only killed one of the opponent's people, and was suppressed and crawled on the ground, without even the chance to shoot.
——If this continues, I will die here.
Looking at the large number of enemy troops shooting himself, Lin Chi stood up and rushed back towards the magma pool. He just turned around and was shot on his shoulder. A piece of flesh and flesh, together with the protective suit, was instantly burned, turning into a dark viscous substance stuck to his left shoulder.
"Oh shit……"
The pain of burning shoulders, even if they weakened to one-third, was still "stimulating". Lin Chi shook his left arm while scolding. Fortunately, his left arm can still be used this time. The "breaking hand tragedy" that he often appears in this game has not happened again this time...
"These are mixed balls." Lin Chi muttered in a low voice.
——If it weren’t for the “Rage” skill that increased by ten points of body attribute value, he might have been burned to charcoal now. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that this skill brought not only attribute value, but also real anger.
Those enemies who were standing in place and playing "target shooting" with the advantage of numbers made Lin Chi, who was in a state of "fury", feel an unknown anger in his heart. The original plan to run away directly turned into "kill these guys."
However, if you want to kill these enemies, it is definitely impossible to rely on the light machine gun in his hand alone.
So, there is only one remaining solution...
"Come and try it."
Turning his head to observe the dozen or so astronauts shooting from the side, Lin Chi did not stop and ran to the back of the magma pool. He decisively took out a few grenades and threw them into the still bubbled pool.
Bang!
With a loud bang, a huge rock seemed to be thrown into the magma pool. The bombed magma fell on the nearby ground, and a large amount of smoke temporarily blocked the enemy's view.
Of course, astronauts would not stop shooting because of this situation and were still chasing them with big strides, but the weight of their space suits made these people move extremely slowly.
"He has only one person, and he will surround that guy!"
The soldiers in space suits quickly determined their operation strategy, holding up the "science fiction weapon" in their silver shells in their hands, and began to disperse, slowly walking towards the magma pool in a fan-shaped formation.
Unlike Lin Chi, their space suits completely isolated the high temperature of the magma. The soldiers were alert to approach the magma pool, and the muzzle of the pulse rifle in their hands pointed straight behind the magma pool.
In the battle just now, they had seen the enemy wearing the protective suits of the criminal tribe. Such clothing alone could not isolate the high temperature of the magma. Because of this, the soldiers directly ignored the location near the magma pool and started searching backwards.
"No enemy traces were found, and they may have fled." The first astronaut who passed by near the magma pool used radio to report the situation in front of his teammates, staring straight at the open space behind the magma pool, but could not see anyone.
This area without cover should not be hidden, and that guy could not run out of range in a short time. He should have hid somewhere, and the most suitable place to hide nearby is...
Thinking of this, the astronaut suddenly turned around and looked behind him, and the area close to the magma pool was ignored during the search. Then he saw a figure appearing behind him. The protective suit was roasted and began to emit liquid. His whole body seemed to be melting, looking particularly terrifying.
"Hello."
The last sentence he heard in his life sounded in the astronaut's ears. His helmet was penetrated by a light machine gun bullet, his body fell down softly, and the pulse rifle in his hand also dropped out.
Lin Chi, who had endured the high temperature and ambushed beside the magma pond for a while, saw this and rushed forward immediately. Before the other astronauts reacted, they grabbed the pulse rifle next to the body, and simply removed the energy battery embedded behind the gun, and replaced it with the ark reactor in his backpack.
"Kill him!"
The nearby astronauts immediately raised their guns and aimed at Lin Chi. At this time, a dazzling white light had already lit up from the silver muzzle of the rifle in Lin Chi's hand.
Buzz!
Under the addition of the Ark Reactor, the power of the pulse rifle has been greatly improved, such as the evolution from a Taser to an electromagnetic cannon, directly blasting out a white "whip" and sweeping over to the astronauts in the fan range.
"wait--"
The nearest astronaut couldn't even speak, and his body touched the light whip. His whole body looked like a collapsed sand sculpture, and he was directly wiped out under the high-energy strafing!
Lin Chi, who was in a furious state, made a gorgeous turn, and the destructive turbulence created by the pulse rifle in his hand was like a giant light blade sweeping across from left to right. More than a dozen soldiers in bulky space suits could not dodge at all, and their bodies disappeared into the light.
“…”
The high-energy beam of the pulse rifle made Lin Chi's body, which was almost roasted, increase the temperature a little again. After solving the enemy, he immediately released the trigger and rushed out and ran to the area far end of the magma pool.
"Damn it, I'm burning to death..."
Lin Chi, who had just completed the "handsome kill", started running without any image after less than three seconds. After running out of the high-temperature area, he started rolling on the ground directly. He finally breathed a sigh of relief until the temperature on his body began to drop.
It is indeed a dangerous gambling to get close to the magma pool with protective clothing alone. Fortunately, humans' tolerance to high temperatures is actually better than most people think, and in games where players are weakened by climate influence, it is obviously longer to last.
The protective suit that was burned to melt was solidified again, and Lin Chi, whose skin turned red, turned his eyes to the area where the astronauts were just now, but no corpses were seen.
Except for the man who was shot dead by himself with a machine gun, more than a dozen other astronauts were completely wiped out under the bombardment of the powerful "beam cannon", and there was not even a single shit left.
"The power of this thing is so foul..."
Lin Chi said as he turned his attention to the item introduction that just appeared. Perhaps to avoid affecting the players' battles, the new props he received during the battle now do not appear until the item introduction is over:
L-31 high-power pulse rifle.
Ranged weapons.
Item Level: Epic.
Pulse rifle, no proficiency is required. The minimum strength value is required: 13, and the minimum agility value is required: 13.
The power of this weapon depends on the power of the battery. Using a high-power output energy battery can achieve better results.
"I'm still using the old-fashioned live ammunition gun, so I'll change to this powerful weapon as soon as possible. It only costs 888 yuan to buy during the event. Now I'll get two energy batteries, first come first served, don't miss it!"
After reading the introduction words similar to the direct TV sales advertisement, Lin Chi laughed and put the pulse rifle into his backpack.
——Although this kind of firearm is reliable, it is definitely much harder to deal with energy batteries used as "magazines" than bullets of live ammunition guns. However, for himself holding the ark reactor in his hand, the practicality of this weapon is definitely so high that it cannot be higher...
"This time I finally came in vain." He nodded with satisfaction, turned around and left the area, and continued to follow the established route.
Since all the enemies here were knocked down, he naturally couldn't find any clues and had not figured out what the underground scientists were planning to do. Lin Chi could see that these people should be planning to make a big news, but that's all.
There are too few clues available, and even if a famous detective comes, he cannot draw any conclusions. What we need to do now is to continue moving forward. While looking for clues, it is more important to find a way to return to the surface of Mars.
The effect of the fury skill has not subsided yet, and Lin Chi also increased his speed to the limit. According to the skill introduction, when this skill is over, there will be half an hour of "expiration" DEBUFF. If he happens to encounter a battle at that time, he will be in danger.
When he approached directly below the volcano, the temperature around him continued to rise, but for Lin Chi, who had been hiding next to the magma pond for a while, this temperature was no longer considered "high temperature"...
He walked through the uncovered open space as he used a pulse rifle along the way to knock several astronauts into residue. When Lin Chi ran for about ten minutes, the outline of the building finally appeared in his sight again.
Unlike the previous Dome Research Institute, this time there were some small square buildings with walls of metal casting. They didn't look like buildings used for research, but they looked a bit like residential areas.
Lin Chi held the pulse rifle and entered the quiet "residential area". The red lights in the buildings kept flashing, and the intruders continued to appear, but the buildings were particularly calm and there was no sign of anyone's existence.
——The "astronauts" who came over just now should be living here, right?
Recalling the enemy's extremely fast support speed, Lin Chi didn't say much. He stood in front of the main entrance of one of the small buildings, looked at the solid metal door in front of him, and was about to find a way to open this thing, but a male prompt sound suddenly sounded in the speaker installed by the door:
"Please show your ID card or weapon ID to confirm your identity."
"Weapon ID"?
Hearing this term, Lin Chi tried to raise the pulse rifle in his hand, put the silver gun body in front of the door and brushed it directly in front of the card reader. A second later, the male voice rang again:
"This weapon ID does not match this building, please leave."
Lin Chi walked to the door of another building next to him and swiped his weapons again. This time, a green light finally lit up next to the door. The metal door that looked like a defense of the vault finally began to slowly open:
"The corresponding ID was detected, welcome to Sergeant Hal Sparta."
"There are people with the surname 'Sparta' these days?" Lin Chi strode into the square three-story building while complaining casually.
After entering the building, he immediately confirmed his speculation: this place is indeed a residential area, and it should have been used by the soldiers just now.
There were some unfamiliar muscle-hard posters on the metal walls, which looked like they were steroid-induced. There was a lot of garbage scattered on the ground, from energy food wrapping paper to all kinds of rags.
The guys living here can be said to have fully demonstrated the word "dirty and messy". Just looking at the various colors of garbage covered with the ground, Lin Chi felt a subtle feeling of pain. The most amazing thing is that among the garbage, he even saw the covers of several adult magazines, and the style should be around 2000.
"These people have been masturbating at Xiao Hshu a hundred years ago for a long time?"
Lin Chi calmly made inferences, and then soon realized that his focus had gone off the line. He stepped on the garbage all over the ground and walked towards several locked metal doors, using the pulse rifle in his hand to open a door at the end of the corridor.
Unlike the dirty and messy outer corridor, the soldier's bedroom is quite clean. The area of this room is about 40 square meters, and the layout inside is particularly simple. Apart from the essential metal furniture, there is basically nothing else.
Lin Chi searched the bedroom and soon found paper and pens that were extremely rare on Mars on the metal table in the middle of the room.
The piece of paper that turned yellow has been stored for many years. It looks like it was brought by the "first generation of scientists" who built the underground base. There are several lines of English written on the paper, which are crooked and shaped like earthworms.
The person who wrote this thing obviously hasn't received a pen for a long time. While seeing the words, the game's own translation system has thoughtfully provided Lin Chi with Chinese translation:
"The ending moment has finally arrived. We have been patient for too long. The powerful antimatter drilling opportunity takes us back to the ground and kill all the Soviets who are wandering on the ground, and those ugly criminals!"
Chapter completed!
