Chapter 266 The Loss of Old 3
The three beams of light slowly faded away.
When there was only darkness in front of him, the eyelashes of the "corpse" on the ground trembled slightly, and he opened his eyes the next second.
Looking at the foreign object lying across his body, Anjiu tried to put it into the space.
The process went smoothly, and there was a motionless human model inside.
After making sure it wouldn't run around, Anjiu stood up silently, approached one side of the stone wall, and followed it while tapping it lightly with a tool hammer.
In the passage, there was the sound of foreign objects being smashed and falling into pieces.
She approached the corner and quietly poked her head out, only to see that the three men were surrounded by foreign objects again just when they were halfway through the passage.
They maintained a back-to-back iron barrel formation and moved forward slowly, using the special tools in their hands to smash the foreign objects before they touched them.
The third brother stood on tiptoe and pointed his headlamp far ahead, illuminating a cluster of foreign heads. This group of things was about to burst the passage!
He said depressedly: "Why are there more and more of them the more we fight? Could it be that they were all attracted here by us?"
The second brother switched the tool to his left hand and stretched out the fingers of his right hand that seemed to have been soaked in vinegar. Although he didn't say anything, his expression was so gloomy that water seemed to be dripping out of it.
Only the eldest brother warned: "Be careful not to hit the stone wall above. Hold on until you get out. The previous savings plus this reward will be enough for us to rest for three months."
"That won't work," the third brother retorted, "It's hard to find work in the winter, and it's too cold and freezing. It's better to hold on for another month or two and rest for the whole winter!"
"I agree."
The second brother's expression eased a little, and he suggested that he move to the front to give the third brother a break.
The three switched positions.
Seeing that he was having difficulty using his left hand, the boss placed his center of gravity in front.
The third brother faced the foreign object in the back row alone.
Although these things cannot be touched, fortunately they are clumsy and slow. As long as you aim and use some strength to hit them on the head, you can smash them into pieces.
The third brother squeezed his sore right arm hard. The problem was that there were too many of them, countless and impossible to kill. They could exhaust a person to death.
Suddenly, he seemed to see something flash behind the foreign object.
When he tried to take a closer look, he saw the blue alien bodies swaying closer. The light from the headlights reflected all kinds of light and shadows - it was very likely that he was seeing things.
This situation has occurred before. After all, it is normal for people to have hallucinations when they are nervous or tired.
The third brother shook his head vigorously, trying to make himself more sober.
However, at this moment, a foreign object suddenly pounced on him at a rapid speed and knocked him to the ground without any preparation.
The eldest and third brother at the back were caught off guard and were nearly knocked into the arms of the foreign object by this force.
The third brother was crushed under the debris. He stretched out his hand to block the foreign head that was pressing towards his face, but he felt a biting cold the moment it touched his face.
From the fingers to the palms, and then to the wrists and forearms, everything quickly froze and became unconscious.
He immediately shouted in fear: "Help me!"
This happened in a flash, and by the time the other two escaped danger and rushed over, his body was already half stiff.
The two were furious and smashed the alien creature to pieces. They surrounded it, one in front and one behind, to fight against the group of alien creatures that took the opportunity to approach.
Boss: "What happened? How could you be knocked down?!"
"I just shook my head, and then I was—"
The chill kept spreading to the third brother's mouth, like an anesthetic that was about to wear off. His mouth felt both controlled and out of control.
And his hands remained in the same position as before, raised stiffly in front of his chest.
The second brother only took a glance and knew that it would take at least a month for the hand to recover.
He suppressed his anger and said, "You useless thing. Yesterday I told you to go take a shower outside but you refused. Now you feel itchy? Now you are in trouble. It's not easy to deal with these things, and you are injured. Hurry up and find a way to get up!"
The third brother subconsciously looked at the eldest brother, but not only did he have his back to him, he also didn't say a word.
But it's true, there were foreign objects surrounding him from front and back, and his arms were also frostbitten. If they rashly came to help him, they would also be affected.
The third brother moved his legs, supported the ground with his stone-like shoulders, and tried his best to get up from the ground.
When he finally managed to support his upper body by lying face down with his butt sticking out, the second brother suddenly stepped back, tripping him and sitting down with an unstable center of balance.
The heavy weight buried the third brother's face firmly in the pile of debris.
The sharp edges almost pierced his skin and penetrated into his flesh.
The third brother's eyes went dark due to the pain, but then the second brother suddenly jumped up as if he had gone crazy, and before he could catch his breath, another heavy object fell on him.
He was crushed into the debris again. In addition to the severe pain on his face, his buttocks seemed to be soaked in ice water, and his waist and legs also lost consciousness.
——It’s a foreign object!!
The third brother opened his mouth to shout, but his body was pushed down, his sight was distorted, and a magnified, pitted face came up to him...
"Run! There's something wrong with these guys!"
The second brother was so frightened that he bypassed the eldest brother and rushed out, hitting and smashing things without any plan.
"what happened?!"
The boss was overwhelmed by the series of events.
He followed the second brother and looked back hurriedly, only to see the third brother surrounded by foreign objects. The vertical headlights were like a lightsaber, piercing the heads of the foreign objects.
——There is no hope.
He took two quick steps to catch up with the second brother, but noticed that his right hand was blue and stiffly lying horizontally.
"Second brother, what happened just now?"
"...A foreign object suddenly rushed in front of me." He didn't even believe what he said.
The boss paused, "How is this possible? Was the foreign object far away from you at the time? Is it possible that you tripped?"
If they could speed up, no one would ever get out of this mine alive.
The second brother tried his best to recall, but it was a chaotic time, with countless foreign objects approaching. He was so busy that he didn't notice what was under his feet.
After the boss reminded him, he felt that it should be as he said.
"What a bunch of brainless bastards!" he cursed. "Pay more attention to their feet. I guess that's how the third one died just now."
This mission was really unlucky!
The passage was full of foreign objects attracted by the opening of the new mine. They could not defeat or kill them all, and they even lost a brother!
The eldest brother was filled with grief and took a few steps to stand in front of the second brother.
"Just keep an eye on the back, and leave the front to me. We should be at the junction soon, so just bear with me."
The second brother nodded, looking at the foreign creatures following closely from behind with lingering fear, always paying attention to their feet, worried that someone would trip again.
After walking carefully for a distance, he suddenly felt the boss's muscles tense behind him.
"Second brother, there is someone in front."
"……who?"
He shifted the tool hammer to his more skilled right hand and turned to look along the front.
