the only savior

Chapter 884 The Destruction of the New Apollo
"Okay! Let's go!"

Bevin finally made up his mind and planned to fight.

The two opened the door and walked out with the gentlest movements in their lives, and came to the front of the central control room 20 meters away.

The door of the central control room was still closed at this time, but Bevin and Reddy were both astronauts of the new Apollo 1, so they could easily open it.

First, they looked inside for a long time and saw that there were no monsters, so they continued to leave.

"Buzz~"

Following the input of the command, the heavy valve made a slight sound and slowly opened.

Watching this scene, the two were extremely anxious, feeling that there might be a monster rushing towards them at any time, like a light on their backs.

"Gululu~ roar!"

Sure enough, he was afraid of something coming, an unpleasant cry suddenly sounded from behind, the monster was startled by the sound, and had already rushed over.

"Hurry up!!"

Bevin screamed anxiously, and before the valve continued to open, he and Reddy squeezed in together.

"boom!"

From behind, there was a dull crashing sound.

At the critical moment, the valve was closed again, and the black monster bumped into it head-on, but failed to rush in.

"Dong Dong Dong Dong!!"

The previous knocking sound sounded again, accompanied by the harsh noise of sharp carapace scraping against metal.

The valve in the central control room is not as fragile as the one in the dressing room. At least for now, there is no way to get in with this monster's means.

Seeing this, the two finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"It, it shouldn't be able to get in..."

Bei Wen sat slumped on the ground, gasping for breath, the frightening moment just now almost made him faint from fright.

"Yes, it should be... This door is a safety valve, stronger than the spaceship's cabin, it shouldn't be able to get in..."

Reddy wasn't much better either, he was lying there like mud, his whole body was drenched in cold sweat.

"Let's go quickly, there should be a few spacesuits on the lunar rover, and we can just put them on and leave..."

After a while, Bevan stood up with difficulty.

The movement outside disappeared, and the monster seemed to know that it couldn't break through the door, so it gave up chasing and killing the two of them.

At this moment, the surroundings once again fell into an eerie silence.

Reddy ran to the side of the valve to watch for a while, and was relieved when he saw that the other party had really left.

Recalling the scene I experienced just now, I can't help but feel scared after a while.

"That guy's size seems to be bigger than before... now it's more than two meters. Is it because... he ate Hersey... it's evolving...?"

"I don't know... These must be the creatures that live on the moon, they came in with us... We killed everyone..."

"Impossible! When we went in and out, we were all pressure-regulated and sterilized by external valves, and we didn't bring anything back. How could they follow in! It must have been lurking on the ship before, and it didn't hatch until now, just like the alien It's the same inside!"

"Then what are the aliens! These monsters must be alien creatures on the moon, have you forgotten the holes on the ground! They must have come out of the ground! Think about it, when the external valve of the spacecraft is releasing pressure, The vents on both sides will open accordingly, these guys must have gotten in through the vents at that time!"

"..."

The surrounding crisis was temporarily lifted, and the two began to quarrel over the appearance of the monster again.

This is not to say that they have to distinguish between right and wrong at this time.

In fact, both of them are in a tense state at this time, and they need to relieve it in this way.

After a brief debate, the two sides temporarily stopped and turned off the flames.

However, there is no consensus on how the monster actually appeared.

Of course, these are not important anymore, what is important is how they escape now.

"Bevin! Wait a minute!"

Reddy suddenly called out to his companion.

Immediately afterwards, under the puzzled eyes of the latter, he pointed to the valve at the other end of the central control room.

"what happened?"

"Look there...the door is closed...the door we came in is also closed...then...where did the original monster go...?"

As soon as these words came out, Bei Wen seemed to be petrified in an instant, and his whole body froze in place as if struck by lightning.

Yes, since the two doors of the entrance and exit are closed, where did the monsters inside go?
You know, when they fled here at the beginning, they saw three black monsters inside.

The few pools of blood on the ground are enough to show that the two of them were not dazzled before, and that they were indeed attacked by monsters here.

Otherwise, Lei Xi and the others would not have died silently inside, without even having time to send out the distress signal.

But the two of them did observe carefully before entering, and only entered after ensuring that the inside was safe.

So now comes the problem.

Since there are no monsters inside and the door is closed, how did they sneak in before?
A bone-piercing chill immediately enveloped the hearts of the two of them, making them feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave.

"Reddy...you just said...how did these guys get into the spaceship...?"

Bevin seemed to realize something suddenly, and asked a little stammeringly.

At this time, Rui Di was also frightened to the point of disorientation, and subconsciously replied:
"They're supposed to have gotten in from the pressure relief valves and the ventilation ducts, just as we were getting in and out of the ship..."

Speaking of the latter, he suddenly reacted, and looked at his companion in horror.

To be precise, it was the ground in front of his companion.

There, streams of transparent slime dripped from above, and some of it even dripped on Bevan's head, making the latter tremble with fright.

"Click, click, click..."

The upper and lower jaws trembled uncontrollably, and Reddy raised his head little by little, and looked at the position above the opponent's head.

There, a terrifying black monster was hanging upside down from the ceiling, staring at the two people below without blinking, and the white mucus was just the saliva it spewed out.

"what!!!"

Cries of despair and pain resounded throughout the new Apollo 1.

The two young astronauts were not able to escape from such a desperate situation like the protagonists in the movie.

The swarming monsters didn't give them any chance to resist at all, and quickly devoured the two of them.

Fortunately, they did not do nothing before they died.

With his last breath, Reddy pressed the emergency button of the spacecraft, and the alarm was successfully sent to the command hall of NASA Space and Space Center.

But the button is more symbolic than practical.

Even if an alert is sent, depending on the current conditions in the United States, there is no way to send a rescue team to the moon to save people. Most of them can only be used as a notice before death.

In front of the podium, Lu En was looking at the red warning light in front of him with a livid face, and his mood had turned to freezing point at this moment.

Although it is not yet certain what happened to the new Apollo 1, he is very clear about the meaning of the alarm.

Even when the spacecraft has a first-level failure, the astronauts will not easily press this button.

Once this button is activated, it means that the spacecraft has entered an irreversible situation.

Various instruments will stop unnecessary operation, and mobilize information resources at maximum power, and then send them to satellites at NASA's Space and Space Center.

This is a way similar to a black box, allowing people on the ground to understand how the spacecraft crashed.

At this moment, the entire command hall was silent and silent.

Everyone has an expression of disbelief, looking at the dazzling red alarm light that keeps flashing.

They can't accept all this.

Obviously it was fine just now, and obviously everything has been going well all along.

Even the lunar rover has discovered a passage hundreds of meters deep, and the secret behind the moon is about to be cracked.

But at this moment, a thunderbolt struck from the blue sky, catching everyone by surprise without warning.

The exploration team ahead is about to produce results.

But in the end, they were actually told that their hometown was gone, how could this be acceptable.

Sure enough, after a brief silence, there was a tidal wave of exclamations.

"Impossible", "It's fake", "The system went wrong" and the like are too numerous to list.

Lu En's face was cold, and his mood was so bad that he wanted to sew all these guys' mouths shut.

The people at the Aerospace Center may not know, but as the director of the Hurricane Bureau, he is very aware of the abilities of those monsters.

If my previous guess is true, then the new Apollo 1 is likely to have really fallen.

I thought that this time I could find the secret of Longinus' gun in one fell swoop.

But what they didn't expect was that the new Apollo 1, which had invested so much manpower and material resources in such a huge plan, was declared destroyed after only two days of landing on the moon.

Around Yirun's concentration, he also felt a little dizzy at the moment.

"No... No! We haven't completely failed! We still have a chance!"

Suddenly, Lu En raised his head and fixed his eyes on the position of the moon base on the big screen.

"Although the new Apollo project failed, the Longinus project is still there! Hurry up! Inform Ramsey that there is a alien attack in their area, and prepare for battle! Protect yourself with all your might!"

……

At the same time, on the other side, in the moon base.

Tony Michelet Ramsey also received a red alert from the new Apollo 1.

All of a sudden, everyone in the room was stunned, their expressions were exactly the same as those in the previous aviation center, even more horrified.

After all, unlike the people on the ground, they are actually in it.

On the new Apollo 1, there are still many materials that have not been delivered in time.

Now that the spaceship is destroyed, it means that they have also become rootless duckweed here.

Without living supplies, being in the space environment is simply a death sentence for them.

"Captain, there is news from the command center that the new Apollo 1 is likely to be destroyed by a foreign species, let us prepare for protection..."

On the side, security officer Otos said with a bloodless face.

Of course he knew what the aliens were, and he had even served in the Hurricane Squad before, and he had personally fought against those monsters.

But the more you know, the more scared you become.

Those guys are still difficult to deal with on the water blue planet, let alone the moon.

At this moment, the spider robot that was sent to explore underground also moved, and a new picture could be seen uploaded from the display screen.

Different from the previous narrow passage, what is presented to everyone now is an incomparably huge underground cavity.

At a glance, it is all endless darkness, and it is impossible to see to the end.

From a rough look, the size of this void is no less than several hundred meters, and it is actually a super underground world hidden underground.

It's just that people don't have the mood to pay attention to these now.

Engineer Odell gave the spider robot an order to stand by on the spot, and then switched the screen to the lunar rover on the ground.

"Then, what are those..."

An unbelievable sound of inhalation came from the mouths of the crowd, and the scene they saw in front of them really exceeded their expectations.

I saw that the ground was covered with dense black holes at some point.

Just like the hole next to the lunar rover, there are no less than a hundred of them at a glance.

At this moment, in front of everyone's eyes, seven or eight ferocious insects and beasts covered in black carapaces came out of the hole on the side.

They swarmed towards the new Apollo 50, which was 1 meters away, as if they were rushing diners to a certain banquet, full of eagerness.

"Bugs... bugs... big bugs...there really is life on the moon..."

Surveyor Abbott has stammered and is almost speechless.

Although it was he who made this conjecture at the beginning, when he actually saw that scene with his own eyes, he still couldn't accept this reality.

That channel is not left by the crustal movement hundreds of millions of years ago at all, it was clearly dug out by those insects and beasts!

All the confusion and doubts were explained at this moment, but the mood of everyone in the base couldn't be happier.

The new Apollo 1 is over, and they themselves are only 2.5 kilometers away from there, and they may become the targets of insects and beasts at any time.

In such a short time, hundreds of insects and beasts have been drilled out of the holes on the ground one after another.

And the number is still increasing, all rushing towards the new Apollo 1 not far away.

Soon, the new Apollo 1, the most advanced spacecraft in the history of the NANS Aerospace Center, was submerged in a sea of ​​black insects.

The hull made of titanium alloy was torn off like a delicate leaf.

Chewing and devouring, those worms actually ate the entire spaceship directly.
