Chapter 23: A Lin Sister Falls from the Sky
Chapter 23: A Lin Sister Falls from the Sky
One man and one beast stayed on the beach for half a day, leaving the body of the nearly ten-ton Morse beast mangled and incomplete.
Of course, this was basically caused by Lin Lei. This big guy had so much meat, and he couldn’t finish it all, so he just picked the tender spots to eat. Picking and choosing here and there, he actually ate the huge beast corpse into a mangled state.
“Body Level 3 Strengthening reserve progress is 0.009%.” This was the stiff message stream from the System, and it was also the thing that depressed Lin Lei the most.
He came down from the Floating Island, swam across the sea all the way, killed seven or eight large carnivorous fish, and after eating them, the energy reserve increased at a rate of one in one hundred thousand. As for the combat evaluation, that thing disappeared; the System didn’t even mention it.
Lin Lei asked, and the answer he got was: “One-sided slaughter does not have a combat evaluation!” This left Lin Lei speechless, but he agreed with the System’s approach himself. The battles he experienced after Level 2 Reinforcement were basically like child’s play.
Sigh, he hoped to meet more power ful beasts. He hoped the Hebrew Continent wouldn’t disappoint him!
That little fellow was full but didn’t leave. It just lay on the beach watching Lin Lei from a distance, with no trace of wildness left in its eyes.
Well, he gained a subordinate as soon as he landed on the shore. His charm was indeed irresistible, Lin Lei thought proudly, while washing the blood off his body with the seawater.
The Blue Crystal Essence dyed on his body had faded to be almost invisible, but the current Lin Lei was no longer the appearance of a white and tender fat sheep.
His whole body flashed with a metallic bronze luster. His muscles were dense and compact. With just a slight movement, the muscles all over his body produced a very rhythmic flowing sensation, which was very shocking.
Lin Lei flashed the charm of masculinity, power, and dominance at all times.
He was a real-life version of the Sun God, Apollo!
Lin Lei looked at the sky. The planet had turned one-third of its way. This cool night would last for nearly twelve hours, which was a very good time for activity.
He could take this opportunity to find a shelter. For the current Lin Lei, sleep was not a physical necessity, but it was a necessary process for his mental recuperation and rest.
Blindly keeping busy, even if the body wasn’t tired, the heart would be.
A bright streak flashed across the sky, so bright it was blinding. Was it a meteor?
Lin Lei wasn’t too sure. Was this meteor a bit too bright, and its falling speed a bit too slow?
The bright streak flashed over Lin Lei’s head and fell towards the jungle behind him.
Lin Lei narrowed his eyes and followed its trajectory for a while, finally concluding: “This is not a meteor! It is an aircraft of an intelligent creature!”
A meteor wouldn’t slow down during its descent. Although the deceleration process of that bright streak just now wasn’t very obvious, this subtle movement couldn’t hide from Lin Lei.
Lin Lei, who had reinforced his motor nerves and visual system, was incredibly sensitive to changes in the trajectory of moving objects.
But why was it falling straight down? Maybe the spaceship was damaged? Regardless, he had to go and see what was going on!
Lin Lei got excited, strode out, and ran at high speed towards the direction where the bright streak fell.
The little fellow resting on the beach also leaped up and chased in the direction Lin Lei ran. However, its speed was far inferior to Lin Lei’s. It quickly lost sight of Lin Lei and could only track forward by the residual scent in the air.
Lin Lei ran all the way like flying, using a nearly overbearing way. His mood was very urgent. If his guess was right, then tonight he would meet an intelligent creature he could communicate with!
Yes, he could communicate. Lin Lei had been on this ghost planet for nearly two Earth years, living alone all the time. Usually, apart from talking to the stiff System in his brain, he just talked to himself.
If this scene was seen by others, they would definitely think he was a lunatic, scientifically known as a schizophrenic.
Lin Lei ran faster and faster. If there were big trees ahead, he went around them; if there were small trees, he just smashed them down. Wild beasts? Those who didn’t want to die all moved aside!
Finally, after running for nearly three hours, and like a beast-killing maniac sending a seventh Night Beast blocking the way flying, he arrived at the “meteor” crash site.
The trees here were all scorched black, falling radially outwards. In the center of the clearing, a round metal ball, gray and unassuming, about the size of a truck, was quietly parked.
Was this… a landing pod?
Lin Lei walked around this metal fellow several times but found no door for entry or exit. Could it be that this wasn’t complete, just a fragment left after a spaceship explosion?
It didn’t look like it. He had never heard that a spaceship explosion could leave such a regularly spherical fragment. Shouldn’t that be irregularly shaped metal pieces?
While Lin Lei was guessing blindly, this strange thing suddenly transmitted a burst of strange sounds. Anyway, Lin Lei didn’t understand what it meant, but it sounded a bit like a tone.
Subsequently, the top of the ball disappeared without warning. Yes, right in broad daylight, it just disappeared, revealing the situation inside.
Lin Lei saw the situation inside at the first moment, and then there was only one thought left in his mind.
From the sky… sure enough, a Lin Sister could fall from the sky!
He saw a creature lying inside, an intelligent creature. An intelligent creature of this shape could be called a woman on Earth!
This wasn’t the key point! This woman seemed to have lost consciousness now. Of course, it was best if she wasn’t dead. She was wearing a non-reflective tight suit all over her body, and even her head was hidden inside a transparent helmet.
But all this couldn’t hide her beautiful appearance. Lin Lei shook his head. He couldn’t find words to describe her beauty in his brain. In the end, after racking his brains, he only found the phrase “stunning beauty.”
Lin Lei felt a bit entranced and felt his IQ had dropped, or his aesthetic standards had dropped. Otherwise, how could a beauty just fall from the sky?
Could it be that he had been abstinent for too long, and his male hormones were secreting too much, secretly correcting the light entering his eyes, turning a sow into a beauty?
…What a mess he was thinking. Saving people was the priority.
Lin Lei carefully climbed onto the round landing pod, preparing to check the specific situation of this Alien.
He was also afraid that the landing pod had some defense mechanism. If it gave him a shot, he would definitely be in trouble. Technology, especially Alien technology, was definitely not something mere flesh and blood could contend with.
Fortunately, nothing happened. Maybe the landing pod didn’t have that thing at all, or it was damaged. Anyway, Lin Lei climbed up smoothly.
Well, looking at it so close, this Alien creature appeared even more breathtakingly beautiful.
Hmm? Her ears were pointed. Lin Lei was a bit familiar with this. Right, he had seen this type in the Ecological Sphere of the Mote Planet human remnants.
At that time, the Layite People served by her side like serving her own grandfather. However, at that time, although the one in the Ecological Sphere was beautiful, she had a cold face.
Unlike the one in front of him, who was in a deep slumber, with a kind of tranquil and frail feeling on her face.
Lin Lei determined that this Alien wasn’t dead. She still had breathing, heartbeat, and other physiological characteristics. Of course, all this inspection relied on Lin Lei’s visual estimation.
He was a gentleman. He started with emotion but stopped at propriety. How could he take liberties with a beauty? Just looking was enough, although the shape of her chest was really beautiful, hehe.
“System, scan target information.”
“Fuweili (Elite Apocalypse Star Scholar)”
Gender: Female
Height: 1.70 meters
Weight: 55 kilograms
Physical Energy Level: 3.0 Standard Energy Level
Brain Capacity: 1495 milliliters
Intelligence Level: Level 8
Lin Lei sat beside this Alien, Fuweili, and felt depressed. In this Universe, why was it that every intelligent creature had a higher intelligence level than Earth?
It seemed that the conclusion that Earthlings belonged to a semi-civilized intelligent race was really… really something Lin Lei had to painfully admit.
Wasn’t it? Human manned spacecraft hadn’t even gone to Mars yet. Humans had only just taken the first step in exploring the Universe.
While Lin Lei was contemplating, the Apocalypse Star person Fuweili finally woke up.
She opened her eyes and saw a strange man covered in blue spots sitting beside her. He was also completely naked, with a gloomy look on his face (actually, that was called melancholy).
She immediately reached for the energy gun beside her. This gun wasn’t enough to kill, but it had a strong stunning effect.
She had received strict primitive planet survival training. Although her practical experience was zero, at least at this moment she was quick-eyed and quick-handed, it was just that her hands were shaking a little.
But as soon as her hand grasped the gun handle, her vision blurred. Her hand holding the gun was grabbed, like it was held by an iron clamp, unable to move at all.
Fuweili’s heart skipped a beat, realizing the power of this strange man. However, she was still wearing the Apocalypse Star’s combat assistance suit. She immediately activated the Combat Suit’s Protective Force Field.
The Energy Level of this field was as high as 2.0. On the Apocalypse Star, as long as the energy wasn’t exhausted, ordinary beasts couldn’t bite their way in for a lifetime.
Hmm, Lin Lei felt the existence of the force field trying to push his hand away, but this wasn’t enough. Lin Lei gripped his hand tightly and forcibly squeezed into the force field.
With his current control over his body, he could explode with the power of 3.1 Energy Level at will. The System’s Level 2 Reinforcement was not only a body reinforcement but also a limit tempering of the mind.
Lin Lei took the weapon from the Alien beauty, held it in his hand, and looked at it. Hmm, it looked pretty good. It was palm-sized, silver-white, in the shape of a pistol, looking very compact and flashy.
Ignoring the pale face of the Alien beauty, he aimed at the little beast he met on the beach that had just followed up not far away and fired a shot.
A transparent ripple flashed, and the guy who had gone through hardships to follow all the way fell to the ground and began to twitch. After a while, it straightened its legs and stopped moving.
Lin Lei jumped off the landing pod and walked up to check the situation. Heh, it had fainted. What a unlucky little guy.
It seemed this gun was just about the same as an anesthesia gun. This Alien beauty wasn’t bad-hearted. She didn’t think of silencing witnesses and the like.
Lin Lei threw the energy gun back to her, ignoring Fuweili’s expression. Then he walked up to the unconscious guy and “gently” kicked its head a few times with his foot.
Soon, this guy struggled to get up groggily, although his steps were still a bit staggering.
After waking up and seeing Lin Lei, panic appeared in its eyes, but in the end, it didn’t turn around and run away.
This exceeded Lin Lei’s expectations. This guy was really following him for good, unlike that cunning Bulin Beast, which was just a helpless act under pressure.
Lin Lei didn’t take it to heart. If it wanted to follow, so be it. He didn’t lack that mouthful of meat to feed it. He turned to the Alien beauty who had been staring at him and said: “I am Lin Lei. Seeing you today is truly the honor of a lifetime!”
Whether she understood or not, he would show off his language skills. At least it counted as self-introduction.
However, his actions made Fuweili lower her guard. There was language. Although she couldn’t understand it, it meant he was an intelligent creature, not a barbaric creature that couldn’t communicate.
She put away the energy gun in her hand. She could see that this thing basically had no effect on the strange man in front of her, otherwise he wouldn’t have returned it to her so readily.
At this point, Fuweili began to seriously size up Lin Lei. Undoubtedly, this was a man, evidenced by the huge weapon between his legs.
He was very strong. The blue spots on his body were not natural, but stains. His eyes were narrow and slightly squinted. From time to time, a sharp gleam leaked out, revealing an indescribable imposing manner.
Generally speaking, this man’s facial features were not perfectly shaped, at least not compared to most men on the Apocalypse Star, but his every move carried an air of grandeur.
Just like now, he was naked, but showed no embarrassment. Instead, he looked composed, as if he were wearing imperial robes.
This kind of person was either an exhibitionist or someone with a truly free and open heart.
These thoughts flashed through Fuweili’s mind in an instant, making the expression on her face relax. When stranded on an alien planet, meeting such an intelligent and powerful man, wasn’t that a relief? Wasn’t it something to be thankful for?
Fuweili jumped down from the landing pod and directly transmitted what she wanted to express to Lin Lei using her mind sensor.
“Abnormal radio waves invading the brain, intercepted.”
“Radio waves interpreted. The other party conveyed the message: Hello, nice to meet you. I am Fuweili, an Apocalypse Star person, a planetary ecology researcher.”
Lin Lei glanced at this Alien named Fuweili, sighing in his heart that a high-level civilization was indeed a high-level civilization. There were never any communication problems.
“System, transmit my message: ‘I am Lin Lei, a stranded person with no home. It is an honor to see you.’ Handle all future communication like this!”
This time the System didn’t drop the ball. In fact, the System never dropped the ball. It faithfully transmitted Lin Lei’s information.
This action was very ordinary, but Lin Lei forgot that right now, he appeared to have done this without using any instruments.
So Fuweili was shocked. In the Galaxy, there were not many races that could do this with their physical bodies. Among the races she knew, the civilization level was at least nine.
The image of this man was immediately shrouded in a mysterious color. An impression of Lin Lei was immediately established in Fuweili’s heart: a soldier from a high-level civilization with a story.
