Chapter 34: Main God! Damn you to hell!!

In the next second, he suddenly flicked his wrist, and under the control of his telekinesis, the Hun-Tian-Yan in his hand disintegrated into 10,081 silver needles, each as thin as a cicada's wing and the size of a thumb. As he pressed his palm downward, they descended upon the "acid path" below like a meteor shower of fire.

Rumble—

Amidst the dull, thunderous roar, a thirty-square-meter section of the deck collapsed entirely. This was followed by the screeching of twisted steel and a series of shrill, harrowing shrieks!

"Awoooooooo—!!!!"

The roar was not merely a scream of pain; it was a signal for battle.

An instant later, an alien, over three meters tall and exceptionally burly, leaped out from the hole. It brandished its razor-sharp claws, ready to unleash a ferocious assault.

However, just as the creature sought its target, a fist encased in jet-black armor filled its "vision" as if it were blotting out the sky.

Bang—!!

The massive head exploded like a crushed watermelon. Even the yellow-green acidic blood vanished without a trace, pulverized into dust by the immense telekinetic force contained within that single punch.

—[Killed one Praetorian Guard, gained 800 reward points]

"A bit tough, but the points aren't bad..."

Shaking his slightly numb arm, Wu Xian’s eyes glinted with cold light. Like a black demon god, he leaped straight into the alien nest, a place far filthier than any sewer.

The moment before he touched the ground, a strange force rippled outward from him, clearing away the disgusting slime in the immediate vicinity.

Simultaneously, Wu Xian raised his arm. The tiny blades suspended in mid-air began to dance with even greater speed, reassembling into the form of a long silver staff in the blink of an eye.

Clang—!!!!

Accompanied by the sound of clashing metal, sparks of gold and red burst into the air. Wu Xian then vaulted into the air, wielding the now-elongated Hun-Tian-Yan, and delivered a brutal downward strike that smashed another incoming Praetorian Guard into a mist of blood.

Piercing Strike! Staff Smash!

From then on, the silver staff danced through the air. Every time it descended, an alien was left in pieces; it was a true case of "grazing meant injury, and contact meant death."

After a while, seemingly realizing that a head-on confrontation offered no hope of victory, the surrounding Praetorian Guards and warrior aliens began to scatter, no longer rushing forward recklessly.

Instead, they whipped out their tongues and sharp, whip-like tails, or sprayed acid from their maws, attempting to inflict damage through a dense barrage of ranged attacks.

Faced with these laughable assaults, the Black God Suit was more than enough to handle them; even if Wu Xian stood perfectly still, they wouldn't be able to harm a single hair on his head.

But clearly, Wu Xian did not enjoy standing still to be beaten.

The next second, he began to dodge and weave with the agility of a nimble monkey, leaving behind a trail of realistic afterimages. The surrounding aliens became disoriented, eventually causing them to accidentally injure their own kin, turning the scene into utter chaos.

"Awoooooooo—"

From deep within the nest, a piercing shriek rose again—the Alien Queen had issued a signal.

Instantly, the entire nest erupted with rustling sounds. Over a dozen more aliens crawled rapidly from the surrounding walls, clearly intending to wear Wu Xian down through a "human wave" tactic, or at the very least, buy time for the Queen to escape.

That’s right, the Alien Queen wanted to bolt.

The films had demonstrated many times that the intelligence of the Xenomorphs in combat is not inferior to that of humans. They are capable of calmly assessing the situation at any moment and seizing fleeting opportunities amidst danger. Similarly, they know that when victory is impossible, one must cut losses and decisively choose a strategic retreat.

However, before the Queen could leave the nest, a sudden turn of events on the battlefield left her frozen in place.

The monster she viewed as an invincible enemy suddenly appeared to have lost all its strength, pinned to the ground by her offspring, who were attacking and humiliating it with abandon. It showed no desire to resist, appearing as lifeless as a corpse.

*What is going on? Did I misjudge? Is this guy not as strong as I thought?*

Just as this thought crossed her mind, a sense of extreme, overwhelming danger surged into her heart. The Alien Queen trembled all over and, without a second thought, turned and fled.

Alas, her reaction was far too slow.

With a thunderous "boom," the carapace on the Queen’s chest suddenly ruptured.

The next second, her nearly six-meter-tall body was propelled by a massive force, flying over ten meters away before slamming into an alloy wall and becoming deeply embedded within it.

At the same time, where she had just been, a tall figure clad in black armor slowly materialized from the air—it was none other than Wu Xian, who was supposed to have been besieged by the aliens.

Divine Ability—Gathering Form, Scattering Energy!

Ignoring the dozen or so aliens behind him who were left in a state of collective confusion after losing their target, Wu Xian narrowed his eyes. In the next moment, his figure flickered like a teleportation, appearing directly above the Alien Queen.

The fully charged three-stage staff strike hissed with friction against the air, and under his control, it crashed down.

"Bang—!!!!"

[Killed one Alien Queen, gained 1000 reward points and one D-rank side quest]

Hearing the Main God's notification, Wu Xian exhaled slightly, thinking to himself that it was finally over.

He was just preparing to finish the job, destroy the alien nest behind him once and for all, and then head back to join Zheng Zha and the others to clear out the remaining aliens hidden on the ship.

However, at that very moment, Wu Xian felt a faint sense of heart-palpitating dread. Almost subconsciously, he raised the Hun-Tian-Yan to shield his chest.

The next instant, a massive shadow loomed before him, and an indescribable force followed, slamming into him and sending both man and staff flying.

The Black God Suit absorbed over ninety percent of the impact, allowing Wu Xian to roll twice in the air and land steadily.

He looked up at the figure that had ambushed him, a look of astonishment appearing on his face beneath the helmet.

Without a doubt, the attacker was also a Xenomorph, but its appearance was distinctly different from its kin.

Pale, tall, and gaunt like a skeleton, it possessed both the form of a Xenomorph and human-like traits. Most notably, it had a face with eyes, a mouth, and other features, resembling a monstrous hybrid born from two species.

Moreover, it radiated an aura of extreme violence and madness, as if a demon from hell had descended upon the world, intent on destroying everything in its path.

Alien Evolution—Predalien!!

"Main God! You son of a b*tch!!"

At this moment, 22 minutes and 17 seconds remained on the countdown...
