Chapter 401 Great Harvest

The death of the Iron-Blooded Elder was like the last spark that ignited a powder keg.

The remaining Predators were completely enraged and desperate.

Realizing they were at their wits' end, they stopped trying to defend themselves or find cover and instead roared like cornered beasts, drawing their wrist blades and spears and launching a desperate charge at the nearest mutated alien.

This is not for victory, but to meet the end as a warrior, in burning glory.

However, faced with an absolute disparity in strength, Glory's charge appeared pale and powerless.

Those massive mutated combat-type aliens remained completely unfazed by this final counterattack.

Its thick tail swept out like an iron whip.

With a heavy thud, the Predators were easily sent flying, sparks flying from their sturdy armor as they crashed heavily to the ground.

Before they could struggle to their feet, several smaller, ordinary aliens swarmed forward and used their arthropod-like appendages to pin down the Predator's body.

The sharp tail blades sliced ​​through precisely, but instead of aiming for vital organs like the head or heart, they cleanly severed the arms holding their weapons.

The strong acid blood mixed with the Predator's fluorescent green blood, corroding the sand and creating sizzling pits.

The disarmed soldiers were unable to move under the aliens' suppression and could only let out unwilling roars.

This was Zhang Qi's order; these final "heads" needed to be collected by members of the Central Continent Team.

Feel sorry……

Zheng Zha took a deep breath, suppressing the complex feelings in his heart.

He strode forward, carrying an M41A pulse rifle, and pulled the trigger on a Predator pinned to the ground by an alien.

A dull gunshot rang out, and the bullet pierced the Predator's body with pinpoint accuracy.

A few minutes later, with the last gunshot, the Gobi Desert fell completely silent.

[Defeat a regular Predator to receive one D-rank side quest and 1000 reward points.]

When the voice of the main god rang in his mind again, Zheng Zha put down the still smoking gun barrel, and a strong sense of unreality welled up in his heart.

"This is way too easy!"

He muttered to himself, his voice carrying a hint of bewilderment that he himself was unaware of.

From the start to the end of the battle, they spent most of their time providing suppressive fire from the rear, and in the end, they finished off the enemy like an executioner.

In this way, everyone received a considerable amount of reward points and side quests.

In the previous horror movie, they barely escaped with their lives before receiving this small reward.

The feeling of getting something for nothing is indeed somewhat complicated...

"easy?"

Zhang Qi deactivated his bio-armor, walked over to him, and patted him on the shoulder.

"I've been preparing for this 'ease' for almost two years."

The resources of the Weyland Corporation, the technology of the Guyver armor, the data on the cyborgs of the Shocker organization, and the tens of thousands of aliens buried beneath this desert…”

"Uh...that's not what I meant..."

Zheng Zha scratched his head, unsure how to explain.

"Heh~ Alright, let's collect the spoils..."

Seeing this, Zhang Qi smiled and then began to tally up the gains from the operation.

The main source of side quests and reward points is undoubtedly the Iron-Blooded Elder. The main god grants one C-level side quest, with a reward of 5000 points.

Then there are eight regular Ironbloods, each worth one D-rank side quest, with a reward of 1000 points.

Perhaps due to the use of external forces, the main god made adjustments to the final reward, but overall it was still acceptable.

The real bulk of the money comes from other things... namely, three Predator spaceships and several complete sets of Predator individual equipment.

The iconic mask, the shoulder-mounted plasma cannon, the retractable wrist blades and spears, and the portable device that can turn invisible... each of these represents cutting-edge individual soldier technology far exceeding the current level of Earth.

"I've struck it rich... I'm really rich this time!"

The Overlord stroked a cold plasma shoulder cannon, his mouth practically watering.

"With these, when we go back to the Main God Space to exchange them, can we just drink one bowl of soy milk and pour out another?"

"It's not just about drinking one bowl and throwing it away; we could just buy the soybean milk factory!"

Zheng Zha touched the enormous spaceship and answered.

After a brief period of excitement, the staff categorized and transported all the Predator's equipment, corpses, and even the wreckage of the destroyed spaceship to the underground base.

Zhang Qi immediately pulled Chu Xuan along and began studying the Predator's spaceship.

"An incredible energy circulation system... and this space folding technology. I still don't understand the principle of their warp drive, but it's very efficient."

Standing on the spaceship's bridge, Chu Xuan looked at the spaceship's data and couldn't help but sigh.

The fact that such an engine could be packed into such a small space suggests that the Predator race may be even more technologically advanced than depicted in the movies.

"Yes, this is what I want..."

Zhang Qi replied that this was also why he chose to prioritize killing the Predator.

In this world's technological system, interstellar travel is measured in years, and crew members must enter hibernation pods.

But these reincarnators simply cannot afford to waste such a luxury of time.

Of course, they could also choose to have the main god teleport them directly to the corresponding planet, or directly exchange for blueprints, and then climb the technology tree in the alien world, eventually creating a warp device.

But the former would render his preparations meaningless, while the latter would also require a significant amount of time…

Therefore, directly acquiring the Predator's technology is a very cost-effective solution...

While Zhang Qi and Chu Xuan were working tirelessly to analyze alien technology, Zheng Zha and the others were not idle either.

The training grounds in the underground base have been fully put into use.

They are not only familiarizing themselves with their new weapons, but also undergoing various high-intensity training exercises such as squad-based coordinated operations and simulated spaceship piloting.

Everyone knew that hunting down the Predator was just the beginning.

The upcoming alien journey will involve encountering Xenomorphs, or even creator-level beings like the Engineers.

No amount of preparation is too much.

Night fell once again over the Gobi Desert.

The noise on the training field gradually subsided, replaced by a calm before a major battle.

Zhang Qi stood alone in front of the huge porthole in the command center, looking at the Ironblood Star Map that Chu Xuan had transmitted back on the screen, which had been initially deciphered, and planning the next route.

A soft footstep came from behind.

"What's wrong? Is training over for today?"

Zhang Qi didn't turn around, but simply asked indifferently.

The visitor did not answer immediately; a hint of hesitation filled the air. After a moment, a slightly nervous voice rang out.

“Brother Zhang Qi… I… I have something I want to talk to you about privately.”

Zhang Qi turned around and saw Li Xiaoyi looking anxious.

This young man, who had always been somewhat taciturn in the team, was now clenching his fists tightly, his eyes darting around, as if he had made a tremendous decision...
