Chapter 16 Chapter 3 Centaur

The sea breeze gently blows on the beach. The moonlight is quietly sprinkled in the night wind under the starry sky. I don't know how long he was in a coma before Yao De woke up under a burst of pain. When he just woke up, he was still a little groggy. For a while, he didn't know where he was, but he was vague. For some reason, he thought that he was in the background of "Wandering Ruins", and the afternoon sunlight only penetrated the chaos Indoors, the hangover last night gave me a splitting headache... "Hey..." When he just woke up, he called Ren Jeff's name intuitively: "...Hey! Is it time to practice singing..."

There was the quiet sound of the tide in the distance, and there was the smell of sea water in the wind. Yao De looked around drowsily, but his field of vision was still unable to focus. Under such movements, the sharp pain in his body came again clearly. Such severe pain helped him to wake up, as if being awakened by a basin of cold water, he suddenly remembered what happened before he lost consciousness. Huge and ugly centaur merman. A submarine that turned into ashes. In the smoke and dust of the smoke bombs, the death lights that appeared like ghosts appeared one after another. A gigantic reef that suddenly appears from view.

and also…… What else? "scare!" He shuddered abruptly, looked around again under the darkness of night, and finally saw his situation clearly. At this moment, the cockpit of the combat boat has been fully opened, and I don't know what kind of luck, in such a huge change, I didn't have my head cut off. However, the driver had no such luck, perhaps at the time of the impact, something hit him, although his eyes were still open, he was still hanging from the chair, but his face was facing the body At the back of the neck, the entire neck was like a twisted inferior rubber, and it turned around in a big circle.

Yao De felt a little sad in his heart, walked over, stroked his wide open eyelids, and moved his limbs while moving like this, the severe pain came up from his body again, and he couldn't help but snorted. However, this sound caused some movement outside. Because of the vigilance of a soldier, he immediately pricked up his ears like a hound, and immediately stood still, listening carefully to the movement outside the cockpit. There is no sound. Except for the rustling sound just now, now there is only the sound of the sea water washing, but there is a quieter taste in the night. After staying on guard like this for a while, the sharp pain on his body gradually became clear again. He quietly touched his chest and abdomen with his fingertips, and found that there were no obvious wounds, but he felt a few very painful points under his chest.

However, after touching this point, he felt a lot more relaxed, because it was obviously the pain caused by a broken rib. This kind of wound was not serious to Yao De, because when he was a child on the streets, his ribs were broken several times, and he was quite experienced with such wounds later on, and he also knew how to treat them. Carefully avoiding movements that would shake his ribs, he slowly climbed out of the cockpit. As soon as he got out of the cockpit, he was frightened by a huge and ugly face! In the sudden fright, Yao De took a deep breath unconsciously, the movement of the inhalation affected his ribs, and the pain started again.

However, there was no movement or expression on that huge ugly face. After Yao De was shocked, he took a closer look, only to find that it was the face of the mermaid creature. At this moment, the giant mermaid is like a huge dead fish, its arms are twisted, and it is stretched straight on the ground. Its length is twice as long as that of the battleship, but due to a combination of circumstances, the sharp nose of the battleship is straight. Inserting it straight between its chest and neck is equivalent to "nailing" it obliquely to the ground. Yao De climbed down from the cockpit with difficulty, and his toes landed on its chin. The moment he touched it, he found that the skin of the biological beast was quite soft, but it didn't have the texture of biological skin, like hard plastic.

Looking down from the angle of looking down, the pair of big eyes that emit a death light have been dimmed at the moment, and it seems that it has lost the ability to kill people. At this time, it looks not only not scary, but also a little funny. But Yao De thought of the terrifying scene of it destroying a huge submarine with a snap of his fingers, and still couldn't help shivering. The face of the creature beast has also been changed beyond recognition due to the impact. What's even more strange is that there is a huge hole in its forehead, which is dark inside, and the hole is obviously extremely deep.

What made such a big hole? Could it be that other weapons attacked it to make such a big hole? It was not easy to climb down from the "face" of the creature, and its chin was about six or seven meters above the ground. Fortunately, the violent force of the impact caused many wounds on its face. There was strength in the time, which allowed Yao De to climb down unscathed. As soon as he landed, Yao De saw a very strange thing. It was an object like the egg sheath of an aquatic animal, but it was much larger and the surface was transparent. Yao De walked over curiously, and looked into the sheath under the moonlight, but couldn't see anything.

Suddenly, he had an idea, looked back at the "dead" creature beast, and estimated the size of the big hole in its forehead. Then, curiously, he bent down and looked at the beach next to the sheath, and sure enough, he found a long sand mark stretching from the forehead of the creature to the side of the sheath. That is to say, this sheath is likely to "burst" out of the big hole in the forehead of the creature. According to military scientists, although the combat creatures of Centaur have biological forms, they are more like tools than real creatures. If this statement is correct, the sheath that bursts out from the creature beast, could it be...

Could it be that there are centaurs inside? In this Star Wars, there are many intriguing mysteries. One of the mysteries is that no one has ever seen the human beings of Centaur. When Yao De heard this kind of statement for the first time, he also found it unbelievable, because in the process of fighting, in addition to the battle of life and death, there will always be some captives. In the beginning, this Star Wars was an extremely rare Star Wars, because from the beginning to the end, the centaurs never declared war on the Earth, and they never paid any attention to various contacts and communications from the Earth.

However, even if this is the case, has there never been a prisoner in the course of Star Wars? The officer who answered the question at that time also had an expression of disbelief, but in the records, there has never been a record of a centaur being captured. Because once their biological beasts are defeated, they don't know why they always turn into smoke and dust in a very short period of time, and they disappear, and the earth's military research units have never had time to do any research on this strange alien. Now, what appeared in front of Yao De was probably a centaur. Centaurs that no one has ever seen. He looked at the sheath curiously, reached out to touch it, and found that its texture was like hard rubber, not as weak as it looked. Do you want to cut it open with equipment? For a while, Yao De had such an idea, but after thinking about it, he felt that the danger was too great. Who knows what the "person" of the centaur constellation would look like?If they are the kind of monsters that grow when they see the wind, or like the beasts on the earth, with terrifying teeth and eating human flesh as a feast, wouldn't they be asking for trouble? So, to kill it?Since they are such terrible enemies. Just as Yao De was having such undecided thoughts in his mind, he heard that rustling sound coming from behind him again. Yao De slowly turned his head a little uneasy, but he saw an unbelievable big change happened to that huge creature beast! Because, at this moment, that huge body seems to be turning into water, turning into dust and sand, pouring out many things that look like liquid and fine sand from above. Those water-like sand-like things were rushing very fast. At this time, most of the body of the entire giant beast had melted, and it could no longer support the weight of the battle boat. The battle boat turned over in mid-air as if it had to give up. body, he fell heavily to the ground, stirring up dust all over the place. And not long after, the creatures and beasts had all melted away, and those things like water and sand on the ground melted when they met the ground, and after a while, there were no traces left, only the destroyed battleship lay horizontally under the moonlight. Yao De looked at this strange scene in astonishment, and suddenly, as if remembering something important, he turned around quickly. And the transparent sheath was still there, not disintegrating into nothing like a biological beast. In the middle of the night, Yao De went to the battleship to find some food and water, and rummaged through a few items, then built a bed under the moonlight, staring at the sea and the sheath in a daze, and because of this This day was too thrilling, his mental and physical strength had been exhausted to the extreme, and he fell into a deep sleep after a while. Strictly speaking, this sleep was not a good one, and there were many blurred and strange dreams. For a while, Yao De dreamed that there was a huge centaur creature coming towards him in the sky, and for a while, he dreamed of the flames of violent explosions, and every now and then he dreamed I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat. When he finally woke up, the sun was already high. Strange to say, when he woke up, the first thing that came into his mind was the transparent sheath. But when he took a closer look, he couldn't help being shocked. At this moment, the sheath seemed to be covered with ants, and there were many wriggling things crawling on it. Yao De ran over, looking closely, and found that those wriggling things were all small crabs on the beach. . I don't know why, but under the sun's exposure, the sheath seems to be a little rotten, and it emits a smell like grilled seafood. Maybe it's because of this fragrance that so many crabs are attracted. Yao De chased the crabs away indiscriminately, but after finishing this, he sat down by the side and became a little dazed. What to do with "it"? If you don't want anything to endanger your life, the best way is of course to burn it. But for some reason, Yao De still vaguely felt that such an approach was not very good. As for what was not very good, he couldn't say it. He paced slowly, jumped into the combat boat, and found a few more necessities. During the flipping process, he also went to the cockpit to try the communicator, but all the instruments were broken, and he could not find them. The same thing that can communicate with the outside world. He brought some high-fuel fuel out of the cabin, as well as an igniter, and he was still thinking about whether to burn the sheath that might have a centaur hidden in it. However, before leaving, I still couldn't bear to bring a high-speed cutting knife. Yao De sat blankly in front of the transparent sheath in a daze, the sun was shining directly on it, and the smell of barbecued things became more intense, but even with such a strong luminosity, he still couldn't see clearly what was inside. thing. He didn't know how long he sat like this, but finally, he finally made up his mind, picked up high fuel oil, and splashed it on the surface. With a "click", he ignited the igniter. As long as it ignites, the thing is gone, and it will no longer threaten his life and safety. The scorching fire gradually approached, and Yao De couldn't help sweating on his forehead. However, at the last moment, he screamed loudly, threw the igniter far away, picked up the high-speed cutting knife, and cut off the sheath without hesitation. The high-speed cutting knife is one of the most useful technological products of the military, and it can usually cut even steel products.Yao De picked up the cutting knife, and in order not to hurt the "people" inside, he cut from all sides. This kind of cutting knife is indeed extremely powerful. The outer skin of the sheath looks tough, but it opened immediately, and Yao De only made a small cut, and the outer skin automatically split into smooth cuts like a chain reaction. A soft "rustling" sound. In less than five minutes, the entire sheath was completely split, and the way of splitting was also quite strange. The entire outer skin was still connected together, spreading out on the ground like an extremely large transparent flower. And in the very center of the skin, there is a "person" with fair skin and long blue hair lying curled up! Yao De walked over cautiously, pushed the man's long hair away, and unexpectedly found that it was a young girl with her eyes closed! The true face of the centaur is actually a girl who is almost the same as the earthlings! Yao De probed her breath, and found that her breath was quite weak, so weak that she hardly breathed. Moreover, the "girl"'s eyes never opened, as if she might lose her life at any time! Yao De hesitated for a moment, then returned to the combat boat again, took out the "Virtual Device for First Aid" from the medical kit, and asked the girl to lie down flat, placing the first aid device on her chest. Thanks to the gift of Pandora's nucleic acid technology, the medical technology of the 22nd century has leapt forward countless times compared to a century or two ago. Only the virtual first aid instrument slowly emits a soft sound while projecting it in the sky Sound and light. "The patient information does not exist, and the gene pattern is not quite similar to that of human beings. Please enter more detailed information..." Yao De thought for a while, and pressed one of the functions of "medical treatment in the closest mode". The avatar operated by itself for a while, and then colorfully projected the physical condition above the girl.And Yao De's conjecture just now was correct, the girl's physical condition is already very weak, if there is no immediate treatment, she may die at any time. "Please take away all irrelevant substances from the patient." Virtual Instrument said again. Yao De walked over, and took away some of the girl's belongings according to the direction projected by the virtual device. After taking a look at these items, Yao De's eyes couldn't help but widen. Yao De didn't know many of these belongings, but he could tell that some of them should be terrifying biochemical weapons. One weapon was actually a long whip like a biochemical snake. No one touched it, but It also squirms and moves like a real snake. The medical capabilities of the "First Aid Virtual Device" used by the military were indeed extraordinary. Although the girl's body was weak, she recovered most of her body functions soon after. "After the last treatment, the patient can wake up," the virtual instrument said: "Because of the special situation, the patient may have unknown threats. Choose A to keep the patient awake, and B to keep the patient in a dormant state." Yao De rested his chin, not knowing how to make a decision for a moment. Girls seem to be very close to humans, but they are a completely different race after all. And judging from the things she carried with her, Yao De was really glad that she was in a coma when he rescued her, because if she had these weapons by her side when she was awake, it is hard to guarantee that she would not greet the earth with the weapons at the first sight. on people. At that time, Yao De was probably the first person to see the Centaur, but he was a dead person to the letter. The options listed by the virtual instrument flickered in front of Yao De's face, and for a moment, he didn't know how to make a decision. After a long time, the virtual device suddenly changed the screen. "The patient's coma period has ended, and the patient will wake up naturally within a minute. Please take due care." After finishing speaking, the virtual device stopped, and the reflected picture also slowly disappeared. And Yao De started to be a little vigilant, and buried those weapons in the soil, so that even if the girl wanted to do something against him, there would not be too terrible weapons to use. Sure enough, a minute later, the girl's breathing became strong, she slowly opened her eyes, and saw Yao De standing in front of her. The misty eyes gradually became clear, and suddenly, the expression between the girl's brows turned fierce, as soon as she turned back, she was about to take something out of her arms. Seeing such a scene, Yao De secretly called out "It's dangerous!" Sure enough, what he did just now was right, if the girl still had those small biochemical weapons on her body when she woke up, Yao De might have given away a small one by now. Life. The girl was empty, and the expression on her face was even more angry. She seemed to want to stand up, but because she was still extremely weak after being seriously injured, she couldn't stand up for a while, and sat down heavily on the ground again. He stared at Yao De, but didn't say a word. Yao De sighed, trying to put on a friendly smile on his face, and said, "I, Yao De, I'm not a bad person." The girl still didn't answer, just stared at him hostilely, and if Yao De took a step closer to her, she would scream angrily. This confrontation lasted for a while, and the sun had already crossed the top of the tree and headed west. It turned out that it was past noon in the blink of an eye. On the quiet beach, amidst the gentle sea breeze, the awkward silence lasted for a while.Suddenly, there was a strange sound. "Goo..." Yao De was a little dazed when he heard it, but after thinking about it, he remembered what it was. Scholars who study alien civilization probably would not have imagined for centuries that another alien who came to the earth across thousands of light years would actually make such a sound. Come to think of it, a girl with a centaur constellation will make such a "cuckoo" sound when her stomach is full. Yao De smiled softly, carefully found a sandwich and a can of orange juice from the food bag beside him, put them in his hands, and made gestures of eating and drinking towards the girl. The girl still stared at him blankly, without saying a word. Yao De shook the two packets of food in his hands again, and then lightly threw them in front of the girl. The girl glanced at the two packages of food, swallowed her saliva, but didn't pick it up. Yao De thought for a while, and remembered that when he first joined the army, there were some brothers who were upset because someone was watching in front of them when they were eating. It seems that although they are thousands of light-years away, their personalities are not much different from those on Earth.So he raised his hands and smiled, then turned his head away. The girl looked at him hesitantly, then at the sandwich, finally tore off the wrapping paper and began to eat. Yao De looked at her out of the corner of his eye, and found that the girl's eating was quite gentle, and he couldn't help feeling strange in his heart. Generally speaking, people on earth have never seen real centaurs, and regard them as terrifying aliens, but now that Yao De saw this girl, he felt that the strangest thing in the world was this. Because, if today the girl was a terrifying monster with teeth and claws, and even swallowed people alive, Yao De would not find it so strange, but seeing her today is a race that is not much different from the people on Earth, which is even more unusual. If the girl was put into ordinary people's clothes and placed on the streets of Angel City, no one would be able to tell the difference between her and ordinary girls. However, she is an alien from thousands of light-years away. why? What kind of mystery does this have?
