Chapter 241 The Casino Crisis
Late at night, in the town square, a statue temporarily built of copper wire flashed with electric arc.
This American master also has superb skills. Although the "lightning special effects" created by him are not as dazzling as the Chengdu High-speed Railway Station, they are also quite eye-catching in the darkness.
The American soldiers were all ambushed around the square, carrying live ammunition, and in addition to the on-board electromagnetic pulse cannon, there were other tanks and tanks.
There are two tanks, both M1A2SEP. This is a big guy. The body is 9.77 meters long, 3.66 meters wide, 2.44 meters high, and the total combat weight is 71 tons, which is 142,000 kilograms.
Many people may think that the tank is relatively small and not much larger than an ordinary off-road vehicle, but only after seeing the real guy, I realized that it turned out to be so big.
Well, Li Xiang is now 100,000 kilograms of powerful force, okay, even this tank can't be lifted. But off-road vehicles, like Audi Q5, are relatively large, about 1,800 to 2,200 kilograms, and Li Xiang picked them up and threw them away casually.
Li Xiang used this electric trap before, but now it is used by American soldiers, and it is also effective. Sure enough, after waiting for about three hours, just as the American soldiers were about to lose patience, a dark shadow was slight The sound of a sonic boom galloped from the darkness in the distance, rushing towards the statue with a flashing electric arc.
"Squeak, squeak~" The black beast swallowed the electricity in big mouthfuls, making extremely pleasant screams.
This is the size of a tabby cat, but its appearance is far from comparable to that of a tabby cat. No, it has no appearance at all, because it is so ugly that it cannot be described and completely in line with the aesthetics of the people on earth.
How ugly is it? It's the feeling of being disgusting when you see it. It can cause extreme psychological discomfort. There is absolutely no uglier thing on Earth.
A American officer shouted loudly: "Open fire~"
In an instant, all kinds of weapons were fired, flooding the strange beast!
"Squeak~"
The strange beast roared, and a black shadow flashed, and it came hundreds of meters away. Naturally, all the ammunition was lost. Some bullets even hit the tanks or tanks on the opposite side. Fortunately, the tanks were thick and safe.
The soldiers panicked: "Where did you go? Where did you go?"
"Ah, it's there! No, it rushed towards us!"
"Oh, mygod!"
Soon, screams came one after another, and the strange beast the size of a tabby cat seemed to have entered a no-man's land, and saw one bite the other to death.
The high-tech weapon, the vehicle-mounted electromagnetic pulse cannon, had fired but failed. At this time, the gunner wanted to bombard again, but it could not be locked because the strange beast was too fast.
The gunner blew up a few cannons, killed several colleagues, and overturned several chariots, but the strange beasts were still active, jumping everywhere, and there were still shadows. As more and more people died, they were still looking at the The gunner rushed over, and the gunner quickly got out of the car and ran away. Unfortunately, there was no time to be chased by a strange beast and bit to death.
Hundreds of people, none of them were spared.
This strange beast is covered in blood. Although its head is small, its mouth is as big as a washbasin. Many strange, covered with barbs and lumps are poked out. The ugly tongue invades human corpses, rolling out the delicate internal organs and enjoying it.
There are favorable piercings on the tip of the tongue, which can easily cut open the human body like a sword.
Some of the nearby residents, some brave, looked around at the window and saw this bloody scene, and were frightened.
Many people hid under the bed or in the cellar, trembling.
The town has lost power. All the electricity was swallowed by strange beasts, and the body nourished by hundreds of American soldiers. The strange beasts were originally as big as tabby cats, but at this time they grew up much larger with the naked eye, about as big as the Doberman. .
Of course, the Doberman is very beautiful. This strange beast is still so ugly that it cannot be described. It has dense eyes on its head and a large number of tongues. It drips with sour and corrosive mucus from time to time, and the arc of the body flashes. It seems to come from hell.
This strange beast not only grew in size, but its strength also increased. It was born at a speed of one Mach, and now it probably has reached Mach 2.5.
A black shadow flashed, and a slight sonic boom sounded, and disappeared.
At this time, Li Xiang and his friends had already arrived at the meteorite crater in the Black Rock Desert.
They parked the car in the Knicks town, then took out the snowboard, sneaked into the blockade area, and found the deep pit smoothly according to the coordinates provided by the relevant departments.
Unfortunately, the "eggshell" has disappeared. It was probably searched by the US military, so I don't care about this for the time being because I don't know where the other party is hiding.
Although "eggshell" also has certain research value, it is definitely far less than that of the alien beast itself.
The most urgent task is to catch the strange beast.
Luo Feifei had the ability to "insight". When searching nearby, she found a small piece of unique ice, not water, but a sticky liquid.
Li Xiang walked over, picked it up with gloves, sniffed it gently, nodded and said, "This should be the mucus dripping from that strange beast."
"OK!" Luo Feifei understood Li Xiang's meaning, so she took out the tortoise shell, copper coins and other divination tools, combined with this mucus borneol, and began to perform divination techniques.
I have to say that Luo Feifei's divination technique is quite abnormal. It cannot be detected by high-tech such as radar and infrared. Luo Feifei can lock in the general direction.
"It should have gone south."
Under Luo Feifei's leadership, everyone walked away on the skis and rushed away at lightning.
Luo Feifei opened the way in the front, while Li Xiang was behind, for fear that someone would fall behind.
Fortunately, everyone is extraordinary. Even Yao Yao and Zhang Youyou, two of them who are relatively weak, can keep up for the time being.
In fact, Yao Yao can no longer be considered poor in strength. She got the double-stranded sword of the mandarin ducks given by Li Xiang, plus the snakeskin soft boots, and her strength has increased a lot. Using these two extraordinary pieces The spirit weapon should be considered far superior to the others, ranking behind Luo Feifei.
About an hour later, Li Xiang and his friends arrived at Tonopah town and saw hundreds of corpses scattered in the square and around, and looked at each other. Except for Li Xiang and Luo Feifei, everyone else felt extremely uncomfortable.
Xu Xuan and Zhang Youyou have been pampering since childhood, and they have never seen such a scene.
Yao Yao, Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui have never even killed chickens at home before. Lei Jiaming is a little stronger, but they just kill New Year's pigs during the New Year. Therefore, everyone looked pale.
Some of them can't help but want to vomit.
Fortunately, I held back.
In addition, they wore helmets, windproof masks, masks, scarves, and covered them tightly without showing their faces. After all, it is a secret mission, so you should not reveal your movements. If you are photographed by a camera or satellite, it would be bad. "Looking at the death of these corpses, it is estimated that it will not exceed two hours." Xu Xuan judged.
Li Xiang nodded.
With so many corpses at the scene, the strange beasts also left a lot of mucus, claw marks, tooth marks, etc., Luo Feifei's divination was even more sure. "The hexagram shows that the strange beast fled to the south and should... be dormant in a big city." Luo Feifei stretched out her hand.
"Let's keep moving forward." Li Xiang looked at the map and went south. There was indeed a big city, the most famous casino in Las Vegas. It was densely populated and had abundant electricity, which coincided with the direction Luo Feifei pointed.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
Li Xiang and the others left at lightning speed, and the town returned to peace again.
There are indeed survivors in the town, but not many, and they are all trembling with fear. Someone called the police, but unfortunately, there were only two policemen in this town. The bodies had already been cold with the American soldiers before.
It will take a certain amount of time for police or military personnel to come from other places to come. After all, this place is the United States, not China. It is cold and freezing, and it is in the middle of the night, so the efficiency is not that high.
In small towns in the United States, police officers are already very weak. If it is a developed state, such as a small town in California, with a population of more than 10,000 and equipped with 20 policemen, while in some backward states, a small town may have only three or five policemen.
There are many small towns, and there are no police. There have been news reports that all police departments, including the chief, resigned due to budget cuts and other reasons.
According to statistics, there are 521 small towns in the United States without police management. Because of low income, high risk and high intensity, no one is willing to do it.
If there were many policemen and a large population, Li Xiang and the others would not have entered the scene of the murder and checked the body.
When Li Xiang was checking the scene before, he saw the car-mounted electromagnetic pulse gun. He thought it was not bad and wanted to go with it, but after a closer look, the electricity inside was exhausted and many electronic components were broken. Needless to say, it was done by a strange beast.
Then the body of the car and cannon were stained with blood, which was a little disgusting, so I was too lazy to take it.
The same is true for the two tanks, with empty corpses inside, which polluted the tank and Li Xiang could not stand it.
…
They followed along the way and found some suspicious traces on the way. They arrived in Las Vegas around 7 a.m.
This world-renowned casino is located in the border of Nevada desert, surrounded by mountains ranging from 1,000 to 3,000 meters, with snow covered on the mountains.
On the edge of the city, everyone stopped and Luo Feifei made a fortune.
After a while of operation, Luo Feifei glanced at Li Xiang and whispered, "I dare to conclude that thing is dormant in this city."
But, divination can only be done Lock the approximate position and cannot accurately determine the detailed position.
There are too many people in this city and it is dawn again, so everyone put away the ski equipment, hand it over to Li Xiang, put it into the system warehouse, and take it out when needed.
The group entered the city, facing the biting cold wind. The city is extremely cold.
Li Xiang whispered, "That strange beast, alone on the earth, may be more careful and like to act at night. Everyone is running around all night and is tired. Let's find a hotel to rest and come out again at night."
The casino is the most lively time.
Li Xiang and his friends found a small hotel, gave the waiter a tip of 100 US dollars, and waived the verification documents and successfully opened eight rooms.
Rich and willful, each person has a room.
Ordinary hotels, especially large hotels, require a certificate to check in. Foreigners like them naturally have passports.
They have passports, work permits, academic conference invitations, etc., but if they can't show them, they won't show them. To avoid causing trouble to the country.
So, I won’t live in a luxury hotel anymore, I will just do it in such a small hotel.
Fortunately, the facilities of this small hotel seem to be pretty good.
After going upstairs, everyone gathered at Li Xiang and returned everyone's backpack and suitcase to them.
Then everyone distributed some dry food, beef jerky, chocolate, biscuits, bread and pure water, and each went back to his room to rest.
Especially for girls, there are various supplies in their backpacks and suitcases. They run around in the wind, snow and cold all night. Even the extraordinary people are tired, so they go back to their respective rooms and take a hot bath.
