Infinite Terror: I Have a Chat Group

Chapter 24 The Beginning of the Alien!

When Lin Yu woke up again, he found himself in a not-so-spacious room with walls made of steel and some unfamiliar instruments.

"This is bad. Sixteen people. We're in big trouble this time."

As soon as Zhang Jie regained consciousness, he looked down at the ground, counted the newcomers, and then his expression changed drastically.

Zheng Zha, Zhan Lan, and Li Xiaoyi also looked grim. Zhang Jie had told them long ago that the difficulty of a horror movie is determined by the number of people. A movie with sixteen people is not far from the maximum of twenty people, which is obviously a high-difficulty horror movie and is definitely dangerous for newcomers like them.

"The difficulty is higher than expected for a group of sixteen, but there's no need to worry too much. We're well-prepared, and if we're careful, we should be fine."

Seeing that morale was a bit low, Lin Yu comforted him.

[Sixteen people, one more than in the original story. It seems the main god didn't reduce the number of new members because of his presence. That makes sense; with more people, the evaluation also increases. It's normal for the difficulty to increase from fifteen to sixteen.]

"That's right, just a mere alien. Watch me smash it into a pulp with one punch!"

He was scared without even seeing the monster's face. How could the strongest member of the team behave like this? Zheng Zha quickly smiled and waved his fist to appear very reliable.

"Then it all depends on you!"

Zheng Zha's words made Zhan Lan burst out laughing. Although his words were somewhat funny, Zheng Zha's strength was indeed reassuring.

"No problem, don't worry!"

Zheng Zha was very confident in his strength. With a muscle tissue strength of over 500 points, he was not afraid to even fight the alien hand-to-hand.

"The mission is to kill the aliens. Each member of the team will be rewarded with 1,500 reward points plus one D-level horror movie side quest. Do you remember how many aliens were in the story?"

Zheng Zha is not afraid of a one-on-one fight, but he is not so confident when facing multiple opponents.

[The difficulty has increased, and the reward points have also increased compared to the original story. However, it's unclear exactly how the difficulty has increased—is it due to stronger aliens, increased alien numbers, or perhaps an increased Queen's power?]

Lin Yu glanced at the main questline and pondered what changes it would bring compared to the original story.

"I don't remember. Does anyone remember the plot of Alien 1?"

After lighting a cigarette, Zhang Jie asked, "I don't know how long ago I watched Alien, I've completely forgotten the details."

"I don't remember either. I've only watched a few of the latest horror movies these days. Who knew that 'God' would choose such an old movie?" Li Xiaoyi shook his head.

Zhan Lan chuckled twice and said, "You guys are really unprofessional. Since we're in this situation with our lives hanging in the balance because of horror movies, we might as well watch the oldest ones. Not just horror movies, I even found some horror stories to watch. As for the plot of this Alien..."

"...The story of the Xenomorph takes place sometime in the future. In that time period, humanity had already developed interstellar travel technology and established colonies between several solar systems. However, unfortunately, humanity still had not found any extraterrestrial life until the very beginning of the Xenomorph."

Just then, a voice broke in. Everyone looked over and saw an ordinary-looking bespectacled man sitting up among the newlyweds lying on the ground. Although he looked ordinary, he was calm and had an extraordinary temperament, giving people a sense of wisdom.

[Is this Chu Xuan? He's even more unremarkable than I imagined.]

Lin Yu glanced at Chu Xuan, but didn't seem particularly wary of him like other protagonists in fanfiction.

In the God's Space, strength reigns supreme, and wisdom only comes into play when the difference in strength is not too great. Lin Yu, who has a chat group, is confident that he will soon gain absolute power. As long as Chu Xuan is a smart person, he will naturally not do anything to harm Lin Yu.

Of course, Chu Xuan's wisdom is still very useful, so Lin Yu will not target him specifically, but only if Chu Xuan does not engage in any underhanded tactics.

In the original story, Chu Xuan at the beginning could only be described as having a high IQ, not a high level of wisdom. A truly wise person would not have let things develop that way. However, considering Chu Xuan's shortcomings, it's normal that he didn't have much emotional intelligence.

However, Chu Xuan's current state is more detrimental than beneficial to Lin Yu. His presence will worsen the team atmosphere and cause unnecessary trouble. What Lin Yu needs is time and stability for the team.

Therefore, Lin Yu intends to prevent Chu Xuan from disrupting the team's stability, and let the rest take its course.

"My name is Zheng Zha, I'm a newcomer. Hello, what's your name?"

Zheng Zha reached out his hand excitedly, feeling that this newcomer might be a talented individual.

The bespectacled man hesitated for a moment before shaking hands with Zheng Zha and said, "Chu Xuan, if you don't mind, could you tell me where this place is?"

"We'll explain it to you once everyone is awake. You seem very familiar with the plot of Alien 1, so please give us a detailed explanation of the story of this horror movie."

Lin Yu spoke up.

Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses, didn't ask any more questions, and instead followed Lin Yu's instructions to begin recounting the detailed plot of Alien 1.

"I said, okay? I've been listening to you spout nonsense first thing in the morning. What the hell is this place?"

Just as Chu Xuan was halfway through his story, the remaining newcomers also woke up, and one of them interrupted Chu Xuan.

Everyone looked over and saw three men dressed like thugs with brightly colored hair looking at them with impatient expressions.

"Newcomers, be quiet and listen to Chu Xuan finish speaking. He will explain everything to you later."

Lin Yu glanced at the three thugs and mentally sentenced them to death. These stupid guys were definitely not teammates, or he would be killed by them sooner or later.

"Who the hell do you think you are, daring to talk to me like that? Do you know who I am? You think you can mess with me...?"

"Bang!"

Lin Yu ignored the thug's foul language, pulled out his gun, and shot him in the arm. The thug immediately fell to the ground and screamed in agony.

"This kind of trash doesn't deserve to be our teammate. Now, be quiet."

"Chu Xuan, please continue."

The threat of weapons silenced the entire scene, even the wounded thugs quieted down their howls.

Chu Xuan continued recounting the plot of Alien 1, and soon finished telling the entire story.

"I've finished explaining the plot. Now, can you all tell me a few things? For example, where is this place? If I'm not mistaken... this is that space merchant ship with the alien creature, right?"

Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan were quite surprised, wondering how Chu Xuan knew this, as the room didn't have any obvious features.

"I was just testing the waters, but now I'm somewhat certain... I'd appreciate it if you could explain the situation, otherwise I can't understand why I'm here."

"Chu Xuan, you're very clever. I hope it's not just some petty trick. Zhan Lan, you'll handle the explanation."

Lin Yu spoke, but his gaze swept over one of the young men among the newcomers.
