Chapter 110: Why Is There Something Like an Alien Here?
Chapter 110: Why Is There Something Like an Alien Here?
Qin Muye brought Tianqi and fifty Gospel Sprites to the witch's hut. It was quite well-hidden; an ordinary person would really have a hard time finding it.
There seemed to be some kind of illusion spell that distorted people's senses, so generally, to find the witch, one would need to use special means or align their emotional frequency to break through this illusory spell.
However, Qin Muye was different. He had a magical shield, which this illusion spell couldn't penetrate. If the illusion spell was light, then Qin Muye's magical shield was a wall, blocking the illusion from entering his body.
Unless it was an environmental illusion or a highly advanced one that could bypass his magical shield, Qin Muye was generally immune to illusions.
As for mental or spiritual types, that might be possible, but this illusion was clearly not of that type.
Entering the witch's hut, the smell inside was not pleasant, and it was quite dirty, looking like it hadn't been cleaned in a long time. The odors of animal products and fermenting plants added to the overall squalor.
"Master, it seems the person has left, and they left in a hurry," one of the Gospel Sprites said after checking around.
"Can we catch up?" Qin Muye asked.
"We can't. The other party has specialized concealment techniques or magic, leaving no traces," the sprite replied.
Qin Muye nodded and surveyed the layout of the hut. Soon, he noticed something very familiar.
A bug lying on its back.
He walked over, picked it up by the tail, and examined it closely, feeling a sense of shock.
"Even though the color is a bit different, I can still recognize this as a Facehugger. Wait, is that one-meter-tall flesh egg an Alien egg???"
Qin Muye held the Facehugger and looked at the large flesh egg nearby. At first, it didn't seem strange, but combined with the Facehugger, it was clear that this was very similar to an enlarged Alien egg, just with different colors and patterns from his memory.
"Where's the embryo? How did it disappear?" Qin Muye looked at the dead Facehugger, where the embryo was gone.
"This doesn't make sense. In a world full of evil spirits, why would there be a sci-fi thing like a Facehugger?" Qin Muye was perplexed.
After all, he had been dealing with serial killers, evil spirits, and urban legends, and at most, a witch. Suddenly, a Facehugger appeared, which seemed quite out of place.
The style was clearly different.
"Terrifying, right?"
Qin Muye recalled that the instance world was named the 'Terrifying Universe', not the 'Ghostly Universe'. The emergence of an Alien in reality was indeed a frightening prospect.
"It can't be that this Alien embryo parasitized the witch, damn, if a superpowered Alien Queen emerges, it would be disastrous."
"Wait, if an Alien has appeared, wouldn't it be normal for a Predator or an Engineer to show up next?"
He now felt that sometimes a story-based scenario was pretty good. Although it had constraints, at least it wouldn't have such bizarre occurrences.
While in films, both the Predators and Engineers might not seem technologically outstanding, a civilization capable of space travel and possessing various high-tech abilities couldn't possibly be as limited as portrayed in films. To Qin Muye, they would have capabilities that could be considered a dimensional attack.
"The upper limit of power in this Terrifying Universe is definitely higher than that of the Magic Continent."
He then began to go through the items the witch left behind during her escape. He found that most of them seemed to be related to Hell.
"A dimension called Hell?"
Since this world was called a universe, the universe was the main entity, unlike the Magic Continent, which was a plane.
"Interesting, the power of Hell, a dimension full of demons and evil spirits, just right to take back and study."
Qin Muye now understood what those malevolent auras were—the power of Hell.
"Move everything back, and then reinforce the church. A tough battle is coming." Qin Muye wasn't sure if the Predators would come, but he knew the witch definitely had an Alien inside her.
Once the Alien hatched, the consequences would be unimaginable.
As for chasing her now? Where would he go to catch her, and how would he catch her?
Running all over the mountains and fields would be a waste of time. He could just inform the mayor about the situation. Matters like these should be handled by the mayor and the forces behind him.
Otherwise, would it all fall on him? To be honest, Qin Muye didn't really believe that the location of the witch's hut was something the mayor had learned from some elderly locals.
Ackerman Town wasn't his territory. If Qin Muye were really pushed to the limit, he could directly use the Crimson Invasion to cleanse the area, turning all the hellish forces into crimson. If it were a purely alien world, the Crimson Invasion alone wouldn't suffice, and nuclear weapons would be needed. Unfortunately, this world wasn't a purely sci-fi world.
There were also the existence of Hell, demons, and other entities.
Thus, the Crimson Invasion could completely transform the hellish forces.
He was quite envious, but compared to the Alien, getting his hands on an Engineer or a Predator would be even better.
He just didn't know if he would encounter these alien civilizations.
Hopefully, this incident will be more powerful. Now that we have the Alien, we should also get the Predator and the Engineer.
For Qin Muye, dealing with one was the same as dealing with a whole group.
He suspected that there might be a portal to Hell sealed beneath his church, which would explain the numerous evil spirits and serial killers in Ackerman Town.
The leaking hellish forces had created so many terrifying incidents.
Now that we have Hell, I wonder if there is a Heaven?
Qin Muye thought that even if there were a Heaven, it would probably be a terrifying version, and there might even be a Hell Preacher with a nail head.
These were not things Qin Muye should be thinking about right now. After all, thinking about them wouldn't yield any results. It was better to focus on the present. With the large number of books and materials contributed by the witch, Qin Muye could delve deeper into the knowledge of Hell, witchcraft, and hellish forces.
He planned to modify the Crimson Invasion to make it more effective in decaying and assimilating hellish forces, which would make the destruction even more satisfying.
Why should he destroy Hell? The portal was right beneath his church, so he needed to ensure its security.
Moreover, Qin Muye speculated that the witch might have performed some witchcraft modifications on the Alien. The hellish forces on the Alien egg and Facehugger were evident, even forming patterns on the surface. This suggested that a Hell Alien might be born.
Therefore, Qin Muye was considering whether to bring the Demon Blood and Mad Blood Imps over. Otherwise, with the Alien's rapid breeding efficiency, it wouldn't be long before the entire area was overrun by Aliens, especially ones with hellish forces and the advantages of various monsters and demons.
Ackerman Town was hiding quite a few of these terrifying things.
The missing person posters for tourists who disappeared each year were almost as tall as a person.
Soon, the Gospel Imps packed up everything in the witch's hut. These items were valuable learning materials and research materials, so Qin Muye couldn't let them go to waste.
All the items were carried back to Ackerman Town.
The mayor had been waiting at the church entrance for a long time. When he saw the large number of items carried by the Gospel Imps, he was surprised but quickly recovered. "Father Andrew, it seems you have dealt with the witch."
"Unfortunately, Mr. Mayor, the witch had already fled before we arrived. More importantly, she has become a host for a demon, this demon..."
Qin Muye briefly explained the situation with the Alien, which left the mayor truly bewildered.
"So, Mr. Mayor, you need to be prepared." Qin Muye didn't specify what kind of preparation, whether it was seeking help or fleeing, leaving it quite vague.
"Thank you for the warning, Father Andrew. I will be prepared." The mayor didn't give a clear answer, only saying that he would be prepared.
As for what kind of preparation, Qin Muye had no idea. He wasn't a mind reader, and besides, it was just two enigmatic people playing mind games, not a serious matter.
As long as he wasn't the one to suffer, he had a trans-spatial teleportation channel. If things really went south, he could return to his territory on the Magic Continent. Could the Aliens even cross time and space to find him?
Qin Muye was utterly unafraid.
