The three shotgun shells containing powerful kinetic energy all bombarded the Nether Hunter's body, exploding into lavender "blood flowers".
The Nether Tribe's external shape is like an upright mutated giant octopus. It has eight tentacles and four front and rear eyes. Its surface is densely covered with black and purple scales, and its overall height is nearly four meters.
The defensive power of this alien alien race is very strong.
The large-caliber shotgun used by Wang Chen is loaded with high-energy gunpowder. One shot can cut a person in two. It can bombard the Nether Hunter at close range and only damage its skin.
Although the Nether Tribe is not a carbon-based creature, it still has "blood" in its body. Wang Chen's three shots at the head caused some losses to the Nether Hunter who rashly broke into the base.
However, this alien creature was completely enraged. It raised eight tentacles covered with spikes and shot towards Wang Chen with lightning speed.
The eight tentacles are one of the most powerful weapons of the Nether Clan. In close combat situations, they can not only penetrate thick alloys, but can even tear open the armor plates of mechas.
It has both penetrating and pulling power!
In addition, the Nether Tribe has a 360° panoramic vision and cannot carry out sneak attacks from the side or behind. Even if three of its four eyes are lost, the impact on its combat effectiveness will not be very great.
This alien race is a real biological killing weapon!
Under normal circumstances, only medium-sized and above combat mechas can confront the Nether Clan head-on, or use long-range artillery fire to cover them.
And such a ghost hunter can easily kill everyone in the D01359 base!
It's a pity that he met Wang Chen.
Facing the eight tentacles attacking from the air, Wang Chen not only did not retreat or dodge, but suddenly jumped forward, as if he had actively thrown himself into the arms of the Nether Hunter.
Before the alien creature's eight tentacles could close together, a bright blade of light streaked across his body from bottom to top!
The Nether Hunter suddenly shook, his two blue eyes became extremely bright, and then his body suddenly split into two halves.
The next moment, the Nether Hunter exploded silently, turning into countless light spots and falling to the ground.
Condensed into a purple crystal that emits soft light.
Wang Chen reached out and took the crystal, which was as big as a baby's palm, into his palm.
Ming Jing.
This is an energy crystal formed after the death of the Nether clan. It has very incredible physical properties. Scientists in the empire have been studying it and developed many uses.
However, the conditions for the formation of Nether Crystals are relatively harsh. If the Nether Clan is bombarded by weapons such as high-energy particle cannons, it is basically impossible to drop them.
And if it's a battle mech killing with a ship-cutting sword, the probability is quite high.
To this day, whether within the empire or the alliance, the underworld crystal is a strategic-level material. One of its biggest functions is to make energy packages for the most advanced mechas. Its combat effectiveness far exceeds that of conventional energy stones.
The Nether Crystal that Wang Chen just acquired can be exchanged for millions of stars or the equivalent in sensitive materials from the relevant departments of the empire. If sold to a private company, the price will be even higher.
It's just that Wang Chen is not short of money now, so he doesn't have much joy in making gains.
He looked towards the stairs ahead and saw the second Nether Hunter appearing!
Wang Chen rushed over without thinking.
This ghost hunter had just landed in the passage. When it saw Wang Chen, it immediately raised eight tentacles. The tips of each tentacle opened like petals, revealing a purple-red mouthpart full of sharp teeth.
The next second, eight invisible beams of ultrasonic waves shot at Wang Chen at the same time!
This is the ultimate move of the Nether Hunter. Not only can it destroy the energy shield, but it can also attack the living beings behind the armor, producing a killing effect similar to that of beating a cow across a mountain.
In the empire's war with the Netherworld invaders, countless heroic mecha masters were lost to this killing move. It was not until the empire later developed targeted defense methods that the casualties were greatly reduced.
However, light mechas cannot defend themselves, and a single soldier would be a loser when faced with a Nether Hunter at close range.
Wang Chen didn't even have an exoskeleton armor, but eight beams of ultrasonic waves hit him at the same time, but he was blown away by an invisible barrier.
Wang Chen's charging speed was not affected at all.
Psychic shield!
This situation was obviously completely beyond the expectations of the Netherworld Hunter, and the alien was obviously stunned for a moment.
Wang Chen didn't give the opponent a chance to react at all, and slashed towards the opponent with the sword he held in both hands.
The battle knife he used imitated the style of a ship-cutting sword, and was made of star core gold that was integrated with the world's source power. Although it did not have the characteristics of a ship-cutting sword, its physical properties reached the limit of a cold weapon.
Extremely sharp!
At the same time, Wang Chen's powerful spiritual energy was condensed with this sword. The sword seemed to open up space with one strike, making it impossible for the stunned Nether Hunter to dodge, and watched helplessly as he was cut in half.
Then it also turned into a piece of underworld crystal.
Wang Chen held the knife in his hand and did not immediately pick up the loot. Instead, he used his spiritual energy to explore the top of the stairs.
After a while, he took back his psychic powers.
There are no new enemies.
Wang Chen picked up the Ming Crystal on the ground, put the sword back into the Xinghai Ring, and then turned around and returned to the base.
As a result, as soon as he passed through the broken gate, he saw Lu Kui and others armed with various weapons.
They obviously wanted to come to support Wang Chen, but they didn't expect the battle to end so quickly.
Lu Kui asked in surprise: "Sir, have the Nether Clan escaped?"
"No."
Wang Chen showed the Ming Jing in his hand and said calmly: "I killed them all."
A group of people suddenly took a breath and couldn't believe their ears.
This is the Nether Hunter!
Without fighting mechs and heavy weapons, the Nether Tribe warriors cannot be killed!
For them, the survivors on Planet Tempus, the Nether Hunter is undoubtedly a nightmare existence. They can only hide, escape, and resist desperately. They never thought that they could be killed.
But Wang Chen said it was as simple as eating and drinking!
No one dares to say that Wang Chen is bragging, because the Ming Jing in his hand is the most reliable evidence.
Wang Chen didn't care what they were thinking and asked directly: "Is there any other way out here?"
Lu Kui suddenly came back to his senses and quickly replied: "Yes, but it is not used normally. It is used as an emergency escape route."
"That's fine."
Wang Chen pointed to the passage behind: "Seal this place completely. It's best to blow it up directly to prevent the Netherworld tribe from running in again."
If Xu Chengzhi is not at the D01359 base, it is impossible for him to stay here to help the other party resist the Nether Tribe's attack.
Therefore, sealing the exposed channel is the best option.
