Even so, Luke was confident that he could kill the Predators who were carrying the corpses, including the cloaked Predator.
But the risk wasn't worth it.
Some of the equipment that the Predators were wearing didn't look like cold weapons. Who knew how powerful their firearms were?
The bomb that the cloaked Predator threw out at the end proved that.
It was just a small bomb, which could be easily activated, and was as powerful as a tactical nuclear weapon.
The other Predators also had the bomb on their wrists, which meant that it was probably a common piece of equipment.
Earth's technology clearly hadn't reached that level yet.
If he had really fought these Predators, he wouldn't have been able to survive if they didn't play a countdown game and directly detonated the bomb.
But now, it seemed that his gains were pretty good too! Luke subconsciously checked the items in his inventory.
Two hours later, the snowmobile returned to the icebreaker, and the people on the ship began to collect it and settle down the exploration team members.
Those who needed to be treated, those who needed to rest, and those who needed to eat.
Luke didn't go to his room. He sat down in a corner of the hall and ate a plate of food that he had just found in the kitchen.
The death of the exploration team made the people on the icebreaker uneasy. Plus, they were busy with all kinds of things, and Luke didn't bother to assign them rooms.
His gains from this trip to the ruins were completely worth it.
Apart from the ten thousand credit points he had spent, it wasn't perfect.
He had also gained a lot of abilities and items.
Among the loot, the Aliens had obtained: extremely corrosive bodily fluids, tough skulls, and sharp tail blades.
The Predators had obtained two extendable double-headed spears, a six-clawed dart, and two unknown items that were suspected to be used by the Predators for hunting.
These two unknown items were two of the three items that the exploration team had taken out of the underground sarcophagus.
Weyland had brought one of them back, and Luke had found the other two in the backpacks of one of the exploration team members in the monster's nest.
Apart from the huge gains, the important thing was that none of the survivors knew about them.
Even if the FBI's 17th Division caught wind of it, they would still go after Weyland.
That was because all the survivors in the exploration team knew that the big boss had brought back the unknown item.
Everyone had seen Luke escape the ruins empty-handed.
Perfect! He evaluated the operation in his heart.
It wasn't a perfect harvest, but a clean sweep.
He was supposed to clean up the mess, but the high-level Predator had blown up the ruins with a super bomb.
Although the final dash was a little messy, the result was still good.
Feeling pleased, he finished his plate of food and put it down. He looked at the person standing in front of him and asked, "What's the matter?"
This person was the female African American polar sports expert, Lex.
She glared at Luke. "You knew the ruins were dangerous. Why didn't you warn everyone?"
Luke looked around.
They noticed that there were people coming and going in the hall, but they were all very busy. No one noticed them.
He sighed. "If I knew it was dangerous, why would I go down? If I don't go down, how am I going to warn everyone? Or tell everyone that you're dead for sure, so don't bother trying? "
Lex choked, but he continued to argue. "You have the ability to save more people, but you have your own unknown purpose. You went out several times and returned empty-handed. Don't tell me that the lives of your team members are not important to you?"
Luke rummaged in his pocket and took out a cream chocolate lollipop. He unhurriedly peeled off the wrapper and put it in his mouth.
Lex wanted to flare up again when she saw what he was doing.
Luke, however, said, "I saved at least twelve members of the exploration team, including you. How many people did you save?"
Lex's face flushed. After a long silence, she said, "Then why didn't you save the others?"
Luke played with the candy in his mouth and twirled the wrapper in his hand. "How do you know I didn't save them?"
Lex: "But you …" She suddenly paused, as if she had thought of something.
Luke sighed. "I'm just a human being, not God. I can't save the dead."
Lex's expression was ugly. "… They're all …"
Luke nodded slightly. "They're all in that black monster's nest. I checked. None of them are alive."
Lex opened and closed her lips, but her throat was dry and she couldn't say anything.
She wasn't really stupid.
Luke's behavior showed that he had a bottom line.
In the face of danger, he had stepped forward many times to fight off the monsters and save the exploration team.
She wouldn't believe it if she said that he was afraid of death and didn't save them.
She had only said that because she couldn't let go of the dozens of missing team members, and wanted an answer from him.
Now that Luke had clearly told her the answer, she would rather not know.
She was the team's safety coach, and her greatest wish was to bring these people back safely. Now that almost everyone was dead, she felt extremely guilty.
Luke glanced at her and didn't say anything else.
This woman was very saintly.
He didn't plan to have any dealings with her in the future, so there was no need to say anything else.
The reason why he explained this was because he didn't want this woman to use her messy imagination on the few times he had been on his own.
It would be a pain in the ass if this woman thought that he was some big boss behind the scenes and set her sights on him.
That was why Luke liked to deal with people who were smart and had a bottom line. People who were too naive were hard to deal with, because they only cared about morality and didn't talk reason.
Dealing with people who were too evil? Then he could do it with bullets.
That was what he was best at.
Suddenly, an old voice rang out from the stairs above. "Alright, Miss Woods. I'll take care of the aftermath of this expedition. Luke is just my bodyguard, and isn't in charge of anything else for the exploration team. "
Lex turned around and saw that it was Weyland.
Fury erupted in her heart. "It's all your fault. I told you before we set off that things would go wrong if you acted in such a hurry. "
Luke was amused. Nonsense! This was a playground created by the Predators.
Unless someone else went in first, no matter how well she trained the exploration team, they would still be doomed.
After all, they were here to explore the ruins, not to fight.
If Weyland had known that there would be such an intense battle down below, he definitely wouldn't have gone in himself.
Wouldn't it be safer for him to hire a team of a few hundred mercenaries to clean up the ruins before going down?
Luke didn't say anything else.
But Weyland was also a sly guy, and took care of Lex in a few minutes.
Of all the words of comfort, money was naturally the most effective.
