Chapter044

Dr. Song immediately pulled up all the institute's surveillance footage. Shi Jiu, a former member of the institute, was very familiar with the routes. The footage showed that Shi Jiu had successfully left the institute half an hour prior.

"What should we do now?" a researcher asked panickedly.

The key research mission this time was the small jellyfish, and now it's been stolen. If the base finds out, it will be their responsibility.

"Contact the military immediately." The doctor said in a deep voice.

In half an hour, Shi Jiu had already arrived at Area 6 of the base. It was indeed dangerous outside. Alien species were constantly invading. Everywhere was filled with gunfire, explosions, alien voices, and human wails.

Now as long as she can get the little jellyfish out of the base safely, her mission will be successful.

Shi Jiu used his poisonous little tentacles to move forward smoothly.

The dungeon has reached its end, and many trainees have been eliminated. Now it is the final stage, and it depends on which trainee can successfully complete his dungeon task.

[Bullet screen]: Ahhhhhh, wine, go, go!

[Bullet screen]: Hahahahahaha our little alien Ajiu is so powerful!

[Bullet screen]: The distance is very short. As long as Ajiu gets out of this base, he will win.

Another violent explosion echoed, sending dust billowing all around. Shi Jiu glanced back. Not far away, a gigantic alien creature stood, its body black and its eyes shimmering green. It had over a dozen legs and resembled a giant spider.

Shi Jiu originally didn't want to care about anything else. Her only task now was to quickly find a way out. But after she took a few steps forward, she heard a familiar voice, and Shi Jiu's footsteps stopped in her tracks.

"Ahhhh don't come over here!"

"Shoot, shoot!"

The ones attacked by the spider alien were none other than Angel and several of her teammates.

Angie was so frightened that she kept shooting at the alien. But it was useless and it angered the alien, and the alien's green eyes became even greener.

When Shijiu observed Anqi's teammates, he could guess that they were no match for the alien in front of them.

This time, the alien's attack relies on the tentacles on its forehead. Its tentacles can produce a black venom. If you are contaminated by this venom, you will be 100% infected or die.

Two of Anqi's teammates became corrupted species after being exposed to its venom. In order not to burden the base, they chose to commit suicide while they still had some sanity.

"Don't come over here, don't come over here." An Qi stepped back step by step until her back was against the cold wall. She had no way to retreat. Two more of her teammates were infected. They looked very painful. Their faces were slowly turning strange, some were black, and one of them was even scratching his neck non-stop.

"Fatty!" Seeing her friend being infected, Anqi's eyes were completely red, and her hand holding the gun was shaking constantly.

Seeing An Qi calling him, the infected Fatty maintained his last bit of sanity and shouted at An Qi: "Don't come near, hurry, get out of here!"

After he finished speaking, he spat out a mouthful of black blood. Many terrifying black veins appeared on his face.

Anqi didn't dare to go over. Her eyes were red and tears fell uncontrollably.

The alien not far away has already focused its attention on Angel and is slowly moving towards her.

An Qi wiped her tears and prepared to throw the can down. "It's just being eliminated! I'm not afraid of you!"

The alien was very close to Anqi, and there was no way to retreat behind her. Anqi had not given up yet and was madly shooting at the alien with the gun in her hand.

The alien was ready to attack, and its tentacles stretched out towards Angie.

An Qi closed her eyes subconsciously.

The expected discomfort did not occur, and Anqi slowly opened her eyes, and then she saw the scene before her. The giant black alien was wrapped in some transparent objects.

It was like being poisoned. Not long after, the alien took a step back and fell to the ground with a thud.

The alien was enormous, and when it fell to the ground, a light layer of powder appeared. Under the scorching sun, the dust floated everywhere, but An Qi immediately noticed a figure behind the alien.

The dust slowly settled down. Seeing the person behind the alien, Anqi's pupils shrank in surprise, "Ajiu!"

Shi Jiu was still wearing his graduate school uniform, a neat white outfit.

An Qi ran to Shi Jiu's side, her voice choked. She looked at Shi Jiu and asked softly, "Are you okay?"

Shi Jiu said gently, "It's okay."

"Did you kill him?" Angel looked at the alien below.

"No." Shi Jiu said, "It's just temporarily unconscious and unable to move."

An Qi seemed to have thought of something. Her eyes widened slightly and she asked, "Do you have alien abilities?"

If she was not mistaken, the transparent tentacle that had just tied up the alien belonged to Shijiu.

"Yeah." Shi Jiu looked at An Qi. An Qi was a very cute little girl who looked quite like her brother Xinpeng.

Shijiu changed the subject and asked Anqi, "Where are you going now?"

An Qi thought for a moment and whispered, "I was planning to complete the task, but I found it a little difficult."

"What is your mission?" Shi Jiu asked.

Angel pointed to the giant tower not far ahead and said, "It's over there. We need to go in and find a green vine potted plant."

"That place is a military facility with very strict management. I've been trying to find a way to get in, but I haven't had the chance yet."

Shi Jiu looked up and saw a silver building with a small pointed top. The scorching sun shone on the building, reflecting a dazzling light.

"That place has fallen, and the army has probably evacuated." Shi Jiu finished speaking slowly, looked at An Qi, and asked, "Do you want to go take a look?"

An Qi's eyes lit up, "Is it okay?"

The place wasn't far from them, and Shijiu and Anqi arrived in less than an hour. Anqi had initially worried about being attacked by aliens along the way, but she realized she was worrying too much. Those aliens were no match for Shijiu. Shijiu's tentacles were truly magical. With just a gentle touch, those weaker aliens fell asleep in a second.

"Ajiu." An Qi was no longer afraid of the aliens and even started joking. She asked, "Did you buy a cheat?"

Shijiu: “….”

Shijiu: “I can’t afford it.”

An Qi's face was full of disbelief.

But it felt really good to have a big boss leading the way, and the two of them soon arrived at the entrance of the giant tower.

Sure enough, the giant tower here was completely destroyed, and it looked like there were still many alien species active inside. If a normal person entered here, it would be tantamount to seeking death.

Before entering the giant tower, Shijiu heard the sound of her communicator ringing. She opened it and saw a message from Mixiu:

"Where are you?"

"Don't wander around, it's dangerous outside."

The message below was just sent, and the message above was sent an hour ago, but she hadn't noticed it before.

Just when Shijiu was hesitating whether to reply, another message came.

"I'm in District 5."

Shi Jiu was slightly stunned, then turned to look at An Qi and asked, "Which district is this place in?"

An Qi said, "It's District 5."

Seeing that Shi Jiu was silent, An Qi asked curiously in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, let's go in and find something first." Shi Jiu turned off her communicator.

An Qi was in charge of searching, while Shi Jiu was in charge of dealing with the aliens. The giant tower was very large, but there were no green potted plants on the first and second floors. The two of them had no choice but to continue searching upwards.

Another hour passed, and Anqi was almost exhausted, but still didn't find any potted plants.

An Qi was a little desperate: "Could it be that they have all moved away?"

"Probably not." Shi Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Let's go directly to the tenth floor. It's the management area, maybe there will be potted plants there."

The elevator was not working, so the two of them chose to take the stairs. The stairs were a little dark, and as soon as Anqi reached the stairs, she was startled by something inside.

Before An Qi could react, Shi Jiu had quickly disposed of the scary thing.

He was an infected fallen species. His body had been infected and turned into a strange and distorted shape, but his face still looked like a human.

Shi Jiu still drugged him first. She looked at An Qi and whispered, "There are still many Fallen Species in this giant tower. Be careful."

"Okay." An Qi responded.

They searched a few more floors, and sure enough, they finally saw a hint of green on the twelfth floor.

"Ah wine, ah wine!"

"Look over there! We found it!"

An Qi said a little excitedly.

Shi Jiu was cleaning up beside her. There were countless small alien species on this floor. Shi Jiu simply stomped one to death. Those small alien species were also quite intelligent. Seeing that Shi Jiu was not afraid of the poison on them at all, they began to slowly move away from Shi Jiu.

An Qi turned around and saw Shi Jiu kicking away a few slightly larger alien species without any emotion.

An Qi walked towards the potted plant. She had found some green plants on other floors before, but none of them were vine potted plants. But the one not far away was different. An Qi could clearly see the vine branches of the potted plant.

Shi Jiu soon discovered something was wrong. She looked at the ground and saw an invisible alien lying in ambush not far from Anqi's feet.

An Qi was about to step into the alien's trap, and Shi Jiu immediately stretched out his tentacles and pushed An Qi: "Be careful!"

It was also a coincidence that Shijiu pushed Anqi in front of the green potted plant, and Anqi subconsciously hugged the green potted plant.

Green light surrounded Angel, and Angel and the green potted plant slowly disappeared.

Anqi completed the mission and left the game.

The temperature around him gradually rose. Shi Jiu lowered his eyes and glanced at the alien hidden on the ground. Around the alien, the ground began to glow a faint red.

Something was wrong, so Shijiu immediately turned over and jumped out of the window.

She used her small tentacles to descend safely.

Just as her feet touched the ground, there were bursts of explosions on the floor, and huge flames mixed with some debris sprayed out.

Everything happened so quickly that Shi Jiu could only retreat to a small corner and wait for the explosion above to end. Rocks continued to fall, and behind him and in his ears were the roars of monsters and the clear and sharp explosions.

His ears felt a little uncomfortable, so Shi Jiu squatted in the corner and wanted to cover his ears with his hands.

But unexpectedly, someone covered her ears faster than her.

The fire flashed again and again, illuminating his silver-gray uniform.

He squatted beside her, protecting her with his body in the flames.

Shi Jiu felt her voice was a little hoarse, and she called out softly, "Mixiu?"
