The expedition team members on the reconnaissance ship also strictly followed the schedule they had on the starship, and now it was already "late at night" according to the time schedule.
The team member who had only drunk some water at night because of stomachache, and because of unbearable hunger, climbed out of the bed.
It was a rare occasion for him to come to the restaurant at this time - although it was not open 24 hours a day, there would be extra food placed in temperature-controlled trays for their convenience.
The team members were just picking up some food to fill their stomachs when they suddenly smelled an extremely strong smell of blood.
The smell was so strong that he couldn't ignore it, and the intermittent gasping sounds made him mistakenly think that someone was accidentally injured. So he was stunned for a moment, stood up, and subconsciously walked towards the source of the sound he heard, to see if there was anyone who needed his help -
But the next scene was far beyond his common sense.
He saw a person lying on top of another person. At first he thought they were doing some intimate exercise, which was a bit awkward. But in the next moment, with the dim light, he could see the scene clearly.
The man who was pressed to the ground had his flesh and blood eaten away fiercely, exposing his bones stained red with blood. His wounds looked as if he had been attacked by some terrifying beast.
The man on his shoulder had wet, bloody flesh in his mouth, with a bit of flesh falling out of his mouth.
"W-what are you doing? Stop it!"
This scene was so shocking that the team members subconsciously spoke out to stop it.
The man who was gnawing on the flesh also stopped suddenly.
He turned around very slowly, and the team members realized that although he was wearing the expedition team uniform and had a human body, his face showed obvious signs of insect transformation.
The human body was so terrifying that he almost staggered and was so frightened that he couldn't make a sound. He turned around and wanted to escape, to sound the alarm system -
The monster that was eating seemed to be frozen as well, and did not move for a moment.
As the man was running away quickly, he suddenly saw a figure appear in front of him.
He was still in a state of shock and wanted to attack, but then he realized that the man was his captain.
His tears almost burst out.
Because of his respect and trust for the captain, he relaxed almost immediately, with tears of fear in his eyes. He groaned with difficulty, "Captain... there's a monster, a Zerg monster sneaked in! Let's go..."
He saw the captain smiling at him.
The next second, the mouth suddenly opened, revealing the bright red throat.
After a moment, the captain wiped his mouth with an elegant movement as if he had just finished a meal.
He had indeed just finished his meal.
The human who had already seen the Zerg was no longer suitable to be an unconscious Zerg embryo sac, so he could only eat them as food.
The body's internal organs had been hollowed out, but the skin had been restored to its original shape, fitting neatly within the skeleton.
The man who had just wanted to escape with a look of fear on his face, now followed it quietly, with an expressionless face like a puppet.
The captain was humming a song in a good mood and walked to the end of the corridor, where he saw the man who was eating fresh flesh and blood.
