The high-explosive grenade easily blasted through the rock wall that was three to four meters thick. After all, it was just rock, not a steel wall that was three to four meters thick. Just the toughness alone was different. When rock encountered such a violent explosion, it would shatter. Even if the wall was three to four meters thick and was made of large bluestone, under the high-explosive grenade's fixed-point blast, a large hole was immediately blasted open.
In addition, Chu Hao and the others had a big advantage. That was, Chu Hao had found the position of the three Predators with his communication spell. He then calculated the distance between them and the walking speed of the Predators in his mind. Although there might be a slight error, he could guarantee that the explosion would happen when the Predators were three to five meters away. At that time, the shockwave of the explosion and the bursting rocks would definitely hit them. Of course, with the Predators' physique and the strength of their armour, such shockwaves and explosions would not be able to kill them. They might not even be hurt.
But this was enough. The sudden explosion alone would buy them at least five to ten seconds of buffer time. During this time, Zhang Heng should be able to shoot two to three arrows. In such a passage, these two to three arrows would be enough to kill one or two Predators, or at least make them lose their fighting ability. If they were lucky, all three Predators might be killed. Of course, with Zhang Heng's strange luck of not dying but failing most of his missions, Chu Hao thought that the probability of seriously injuring the Predators was higher.
But this was enough …
Chaos, a more powerful long-range attack, and J who had taken advantage of the chaos to rush closer. With all these factors combined, if they still couldn't wipe out the enemy, it could only mean that they were too incompetent. Then why bother killing the Alien Queen? They might as well all commit suicide.
One second after the shockwave of the explosion was blocked, Chu Hao immediately closed his eyes. At the same time, he unlocked his genetic lock and started visualizing the spell model in his mind as fast as he could. This was a Level-1 spell called 'Acute Nerves'. From the name of the spell, it increased the target's nerve reaction in battle and gave the target a + 5 bonus to the first strike check. Although Chu Hao still had doubts about the number of units of the first strike check, this spell obviously increased nerve reaction, and this … just happened to be the most suitable for J.
(Faster, faster, this spell has to be passed to J before he passes me!)
Chu Hao had already mobilized all of his consciousness. This was a Level-1 spell, and its spell model was much more complicated than a Level-0 spell. Although it was simpler than the Charm Person spell, it was still not something that could be visualized in one or two seconds. At this moment, J, who was behind Chu Hao, had already woken up from the aftermath of the explosion. Following that, a sharp noise could be heard coming from his wrists. Two wrist thorns shot out from his wrists, and in the next second, he started running towards the explosion.
(2 seconds … 3 seconds!)
"Keen senses!"
For the first time, Chu Hao compressed the casting time of a Level-1 spell to 3 seconds. Finally, just as J was about to pass him, he abruptly pointed a finger at J's back. In an instant, an invisible energy was transferred to J's body, and J's speed seemed to have increased.
Perhaps Chu Hao wasn't aware of this change, but J felt it very clearly. At this moment, he felt as if his footsteps had slowed down, but he soon realized that it wasn't his speed that slowed down, but rather his reaction speed. This feeling of being able to catch a bullet … Could this be the effect of unlocking the genetic lock? Could it be that Chu Hao still had a spell that could unlock the genetic lock? It really was omnipotent, no, it really was a bug-like spell …
If Chu Hao knew what J was thinking right now, he would probably vomit blood from anger. Unlocking the genetic lock? In order to trigger the transfer of the spell within 3 seconds, his head was starting to hurt. However, this wasn't the time to relax. Although Zhang Heng and J had already entered the battlefield, he still needed this as a precaution …
"Counter the enemy's initiative!"
This was another level-1 spell that had just been strengthened. Its effect was a + 20 Insight bonus for the next attack. It could be understood as a keen sense of danger, similar to the sixth sense. This was a spell that could only be used on oneself. Generally, in D&D games, it was a defensive spell that Mages used to protect themselves. However, if a melee profession had this spell effect … then it could be understood as a legendary face-fighter, or an undying warrior with super strong intuition!
Yes, Chu Hao intended to enter the battle directly. He wasn't a weak melee mage in D&D games. If he really wanted to calculate, his melee combat ability far exceeded J's. It was just that he didn't need to, but if there was a need, he definitely wouldn't be afraid of melee combat, such as now!
When Chu Hao finally cast the second level-1 spell, he immediately pulled out a trident from beside his shoe and followed closely behind J. They rushed into the dusty hole. The moment they entered, Chu Hao shouted, "Stop attacking! J and I have entered your shooting range! "
As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp ray of light came straight at him. Chu Hao's mind instantly had a premonition of danger. At the same time, several dodging methods flashed through his mind. Moreover, he had unlocked the genetic lock, so these dodging methods naturally appeared in his mind. At the same time, an instinctive battle instinct appeared, allowing him to understand how to counterattack after dodging the attack. This feeling …
Oh right, the Keen Sense from before was to improve the body's reaction speed, very much like the ability after unlocking the genetic lock. This Counter the enemy's ability can completely complement the battle instinct after unlocking the genetic lock, greatly improving the defense after unlocking the genetic lock … Could it be that D&D magic has some strange inside story that I don't know about? Does it have something to do with the genetic lock?
This doubt only appeared for a moment, but now was not the time to think about it. When the ray of light came at him, Chu Hao instinctively twisted his waist and tilted his head, allowing the ray of light to pierce his face. In the next second, his feet moved, and he was already in front of the enemy. This was a tall Predator. Blue blood flowed out of its body, and there was a bowl-sized bloody hole in one of its arms. The arm was almost completely crippled, and the bloody hole seemed to have spread to its lungs. This was a very serious injury. It could only lean against the wall and use its other intact arm to stab at Chu Hao.
This is a tough warrior … Chu Hao evaluated this Predator. In the next second, he directly pierced the Predator's neck with the stiletto in his hand. At the same time, he pulled the stiletto forcefully and almost tore off half of the Predator's neck. The Predator couldn't be more dead …
On the other side, just five metres behind Chu Hao, J and another intact Predator were fighting each other. The Predator was holding a sharp gear disc. Was this the Predator that killed Li En at the entrance of the ruins? That weapon of Stellin's could be used for both long-range and close-range attacks. It was made of an unknown metal and was extremely sharp. With a light swipe, it easily cut through the large limestone wall like tofu. Even though J was wearing an exoskeleton armour, he definitely didn't want to test which side was tougher, so he had been doing his best to avoid the Predator's attacks. Because of this, even though he had increased his mental speed, he was still in a disadvantageous position against the Predator.
At the same time, the dust from the explosion in the passage gradually dissipated. Chu Hao immediately saw the third Predator corpse. This was a Predator with a bloody hole in its thigh, but the fatal wound was in its heart. It was obviously an attack from J's wrist. Now, there was only one Predator left alive. The crisis was basically over.
In the distance, Zhang Heng and Ares also saw everything clearly. Zhang Heng immediately drew his longbow to look for an opportunity to shoot at the Predator, but Ares, who was standing next to him, immediately stopped him. "Wait a minute, don't be in a hurry to shoot. Chu Hao, what do you think? Are we going to spare this Predator? Maybe we can take it with us to kill the Xenomorphs? That way, we can get help from the Predators. "
Chu Hao shook his head. He silently looked at the two people behind Zhang Heng and Ares. A white man and a mixed-race woman. Were they the male and female protagonists in the movie?
He clenched the bayonet in his hand, turned his head, and stared at the Predator. "It's too late. Our hands are already stained with their blood. Two Predators have died at our hands. Whether we let this one go or not, we're already enemies with the entire Predator group. I think … it's very likely that a large number of Predators are already rushing here, right? You know, in the original movie, the Predators have a 3D holographic device that can completely project the terrain of the entire pyramid. There's no way for us to reconcile with the Predators. The only thing we can do now is to kill them! "
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Hao took advantage of the gap between J and the Predator to rush straight up from the side of the Predator. The moment the Predator swung the disc at him, Chu Hao lowered his head and rushed forward, allowing the disc to cut into his hair. In the next second, he was already in front of the Predator. The stiletto pierced straight through the Predator's jaw and into its head, killing it cleanly.
Only then did Chu Hao turn around, panting. He said to Ares and Zhang Heng, "We can't be allies with the Predators, but that doesn't mean we can't use their power. I have a way, a way to get close to the Queen of the Xenomorphs …"
"A way to kill the Queen even though we're all dead …"
"A path of survival that will lead to certain death!"
