A Desperate Battle, Li Wei's Plan (1)
When this unfortunate fellow's body fell to the ground, those blue-blooded individuals finally woke up from their daze.
"Don't make me repeat myself. Whoever got the item, hand it over, or I won't hesitate to kill you all." Lan Lin licked his tongue, which was covered in brain matter, and there wasn't a trace of pity for his fellow human beings in his eyes.
There were no penalty rules for killing fellow Reincarnators, so he didn't care at all.
Soon, both items appeared in his hands. After all, while these items were good, they were definitely not as valuable as his own life.
"Well then, the hunt begins. But before that, I don't want anyone to reveal my identity, so you all have to die," Lan Lin laughed wildly. Then, his tongue, like a sharp sword, relentlessly reaped the lives of his kind. In just a few seconds, apart from the initial seven, all the remaining Blue Blood Star people were dead.
"I don't trust them, so I'm taking precautions. Now it's time to get serious... Find the reincarnators from the opposing faction and wipe them all out."
After saying that, one of the Blue Blood Star Reincarnators behind him suddenly opened his mouth wide and spat out countless small lizards, numbering in the thousands. These finger-sized lizards crawled rapidly, scattered in all directions, and seeped into various parts of the Ishimura through the pipes.
"Kill any hostile Reincarnators you spot immediately. Notify me immediately if you receive any news of hostile Destroyer," Lan Lin said to his companions behind him. Then, he leaped away like a real lizard, crawling out of the ventilation duct.
However, none of them noticed that a wisp of white mist had emerged from the Corpse-Slasher that had died at the beginning.
Ten minutes later, in cabin number 9, Li Wei listened to Blood Demon's report and then remained silent.
"That guy is really ruthless. He actually killed all his companions. The few who survived must be extremely powerful and quite familiar with that Destroyer named Lan Lin. In this way, both the 'Redeemer' and the 'Slayer' are now in the hands of the Destroyer." Li Wei sighed.
This is indeed a bit troublesome. If I make contact with that hostile Destroyer and it guesses my identity, it can send me straight back to my 'home'.
However, this is also an opportunity for Li Wei. It is now certain that both items are in the hands of that Destroyer, and the other Blue Blood Star Domain Reincarnators pose no threat to him.
"Then let's eliminate the other Blue Blood Star Domain Reincarnators first." Li Wei glanced at the red Marker beside him, walked over, and placed his palm on it.
Then Li Wei slowly closed his eyes.
A mental fluctuation emanated from the Marker, and Li Wei instantly established contact with all the alien monsters on the Ishimura. Those monsters had been released by Li Wei several minutes earlier.
Each monster is like a pair of eyes for Li Wei, allowing him to monitor every move on the Ishimura. This is the benefit of controlling the Marker, and Li Wei is certain that this is why the Main God allowed the first, relatively weaker Reincarnator faction to enter the mission world first.
The 'path' in the mission is there; whether or not it can be found becomes the key to the mission, and Li Wei has found something crucial to this team battle mission.
Soon, Li Wei found the reincarnators besides the Blue Blood Star Destroyer. Each of them had a combat strength of A2 or higher, and some even reached A3. As for the Destroyer, in Li Wei's view, he had reached the terrifying S-rank.
Such a lineup was indeed beyond the capabilities of the Earth Star's reincarnators. The Earth Star's reincarnators, along with the captain and other survivors, hid in compartment number 3.
Now that I know the identity of the Destroyer, as long as I have the 'Destroyer of Slaughter' item, I can take care of the Destroyer.
With my A3 combat power, the chances of winning against an S-rank opponent without the 'Slayer' item are slim.
"Items...I must get the items." Li Wei thought for a moment and issued a series of commands through the Marker.
The alien monsters on the Ishimura had gone berserk, becoming even more ferocious and aggressive than before. Meanwhile, the three Old Ghost, including the Blood Demon, had mingled with the Corpse-Slasher.
The first target is a Level A2 reincarnator from the Blue Blood Star.
Under attack from a large number of monsters, this reincarnator used his special skill—a ability to transform his spirit into a giant lizard. In an instant, a large number of Corpse-Slasher suffered heavy casualties; even sharp bone blades could hardly penetrate their blue armor.
"Pig Demon, it's time to make a move," Li Wei, who had witnessed everything, gave the order.
Soon, the Pig Demon mixed in with the Corpse-Slasher -Corpse-Slasher controlled one of them to pounce. After the giant lizard smashed the Corpse-Slasher into a pulp with one claw, the giant lizard suddenly felt that it could no longer lift its claw.
Although this time only lasted for 2 seconds, the surrounding monsters had already swarmed forward, completely surrounding the blue lizard. Sharp teeth, fangs, and barbed bone spikes—these terrifying weapons attacked the blue lizard together, finally breaking through its defensive scales, leaving it a bloody mess. The blue lizard's blood was also an eerie blue, splattering onto the metal deck.
"Roar"
The reincarnator was terrified and struggled violently. Unbeknownst to it, a Ghost Shadow had already appeared above its head.
"This Blue Blood Star Reincarnator is doomed." Upon seeing this, Li Wei withdrew his spiritual power.
The Blood Demon and the other two demons are all A3-level beings. Add to that so many Corpse-Slasher, and dealing with a few A2-level Reincarnators would be a piece of cake.
The biggest mistake the other side made was choosing to split up, which gave Li Wei an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
After eliminating all A2-level reincarnators using the same method, only three Blue Blood Star reincarnators remained, including an S-level Destroyer and two other A3-level individuals.
They had clearly sensed something was wrong, and were now acting with extreme caution, annihilating any monsters they encountered without holding back.
But that S-rank Lan Lin remained completely unrestrained.
Seeing this, Li Wei took a breath and withdrew all his spiritual power. Then he reached out and grabbed the Marker, activated the Behemoth's Power, and actually managed to break off a piece.
"Even a fragment of the Marker possesses the complete control over it; such a thing is truly amazing." With the Marker on his person, Li Wei left cabin number 9.
At this moment, all 31 Earth Star Reincarnators and more than 40 surviving crew members are hiding in an armory near the command center.
The reincarnators have now split into two major factions.
One faction advocated taking the initiative, since hiding here indefinitely wasn't a solution; they would eventually have to face the reincarnators from the Blue Blood Star Domain.
The other faction, however, advocated defense. They argued that with countless powerful weapons and the reincarnators' special abilities, they had the advantage of terrain even if the enemy attacked. This difference in opinion led to endless arguments.
"We can't wait any longer. The hostile reincarnators have been in the mission world for three hours. If they find this place, and we're no match for them, we won't even have anywhere to run!" One of the reincarnators, who advocated for an attack, shouted, waving the Ion Cutter he had just acquired.
"Hmph, short-sighted. The situation outside is unclear. Not only are there hostile reincarnators, but also those man-eating monsters. If we go out, we'll be attacked from both sides. Here, we have sturdy alloy doors, plenty of weapons, and so many crew members who can fight alongside us. Staying here is definitely better than blindly rushing out," another reincarnator quickly retorted.
Then, with a strange grin, he added, "Besides, everyone here has their own agenda. Apart from those five unlucky guys who died, anyone here could be in possession of two items, and anyone could be the Destroyer. I absolutely will not leave until this is cleared up."
At first, the reincarnated person was speechless.
The atmosphere grew somewhat somber as everyone wondered who the Destroyer was and who possessed the two crucial items.
Just then, a loud 'thud' came from the tightly closed metal door.
"Don't make a sound!" Everyone froze like startled birds, but the banging outside the door continued unabated.
"Is it a monster... or one of those Blue Blood Star Reincarnators?" Everyone swallowed hard. Every tremor seemed to strike their hearts. All they could do at that moment was grip their weapons tightly.
Snap
A bulge appeared on the sturdy metal door, indicating that the impact on that side of the door was extremely strong.
Finally, the metal door, under the violent impact, turned into scrap metal on the ground, and a giant over 2 meters tall appeared in the doorway. He was wearing a blue suit, and his muscles bulged beneath the clothes, exuding a sense of power.
"Blue... Blue Blood Star Reincarnator?" Someone shouted, and immediately the sound of weapons firing rang out. The person identified as the Blue Blood Reincarnator had already grabbed a metal door panel from the ground and held it in front of him.
While Pulse Rifle had a high rate of fire, they lacked power and therefore couldn't penetrate the metal door. Those equipped with melee weapons were all hesitant to advance, hoping the enemy would retreat under such intense firepower.
But the reality terrified them; the enormous Blue Blood Star Reincarnator not only did not retreat, but instead walked forward step by step.
"Damn, that's powerful! It must be the Destroyer of Blue Blood Star! Anyone who has the 'Destroyer of Slaughter' item, hurry up and use it, or we'll all die here!" Someone shouted, and the reincarnators from Earth Star suddenly realized what was going on.
Finally, one of the reincarnators, his expression shifting several times, seemed to have made up his mind. He summoned the Yellow Paper and took out something.
