District 11: Embers of Rebirth
第 1 章:变形的觉醒这是地球被虾人统治的第 15 个年头.约翰内斯堡实验基地的空气中弥漫着刺鼻的化学气味,蓝色的雾气像无形的枷锁一样笼罩着这座金属建筑.谭雅被锁在一个铁笼子里,她的身体已经不再像人——她的右臂上布满了灰黑色的鳞片,指甲像爪子一样锋利,半张脸已经长出了坚硬的外壳,左眼闪着淡淡的绿光,这是虾人基因侵蚀的痕迹.十年的实验让她变成了一个半人半虾的畸形怪物,但她的意志却像钢铁一样坚韧,从未被摧毁过."Tanya,醒来!"李明的声音从旁边的笼子里传来,低沉而虚弱.他还被注射了基因液,身体畸形成虾人,手臂长出贝壳,复眼取代了人类的瞳孔.他的意识是断断续续的,在理智的边缘挣扎."他们又来了."谭雅突然睁开眼睛,看到两个虾人实验者走过来,手里拿着注射器,后面跟着守卫.她咬牙切齿,咆哮道:"别碰我!她的声音嘶哑,夹杂着非人的低沉呻吟,就像野兽的咆哮.实验者冷笑一声,挥舞着爪子示意守卫上前.两个守虾人抓住她的手臂,将她压在笼壁上,用冰冷的针刺穿她的脖子.一股热液流被注入她的体内,让她全身痛苦地抽搐着,意识模糊不清,但一股奇异的力量在她的脑海中涌动——扭曲带来的超能力,就像电流流过她的血液.在昏迷中,她梦见了 Wikus.他站在一片废墟中,他的壳碎了,他的爪子向她伸出,低声说:"活着,达尼雅.对我来说.他的身影模糊但温暖,就像一缕刺破黑暗的光芒.她突然醒来,疼痛消退,她发现守卫和实验者已经离开了,笼子门锁松动了.她试着动动右臂,鳞片下的肌肉紧绷着,力量比以前更强壮.她用爪子撬开锁,金属吱吱作响,最后断了."李明,走!"她低声说着,爬到旁边的笼子里,扯开了锁链.李明踉踉跄跄地走出去,气喘吁吁,用复眼盯着她:"我们要去哪里?"出去."Tanya 咬紧牙关支持他,"找到抵抗者.通风管道狭窄而寒冷,空气中弥漫着铁锈和化学废物的气味.谭雅靠着扭曲的力量撕开金属板,与李明一起爬行,每一步都像刀尖一样.她能感觉到自己的身体在变化,心跳加快,呼吸低沉.她低声对自己说:"维库斯,我不会让你白白死去的.经过半个小时的艰苦跋涉,他们终于爬到了地面上.夜色深沉,天空笼罩在蓝色的雾气中,远处11区的高塔闪烁着微弱的光芒,就像一只巨兽的眼睛.Tanya 深吸一口气,空气刺痛了她的肺部,但她强迫自己冷静下来.她低声说:"我们得快点,他们会发现的.李明点点头,虚弱地跟在她身后.他的壳子在地面上摩擦,发出轻微的沙沙声.Tanya 回头看着他,心痛——他们已经不是人了,但他们仍然必须为人类的未来而战.第 2 章:地下之火三天后,谭雅和李明来到了北美荒野中的一个地下基地.入口隐藏在一座废弃工厂的废墟下.叛军的哨兵用霰弹枪指着他们,大喊道:"住手!你是什么人?"谭雅."她举起畸形的右臂,用嘶哑的声音说:"我逃离了约翰内斯堡.带我去见莎拉.哨兵皱了皱眉,看着她和李明那毫无人性的模样,犹豫了片刻,挥手道:"跟我来.他带领他们穿过隧道.昏暗的灯光下,墙壁上布满了裂缝,空气中潮湿而沉重.地下基地里挤满了幸存者,大约有一百人,有的瘦骨嶙峋,有的伤痕累累.他们围着几堆破损的武器,窃窃私语.詹姆斯的副手,现在的抵抗运动领袖莎拉站在一堆能量枪旁边.当她看到 Tanya 时,她的眼睛里闪过震惊.她走近一步,皱起眉头,"塔尼娅?你...已经改变."为了生存."谭雅低声说,用绿色的眼睛盯着她,"维库斯死了,我必须继续战斗.你还在吗?萨拉点点头,带她到一张金属桌前,桌上放着一张偷来的虾数据盘.她敲了敲圆盘,低声说:"我们还在那儿,但人不多.詹姆斯去世前,他说你会回来的.他留下了这个——盾芯的位置.Tanya 触摸着数据盘,冰冷的金属触感让她的心跳加速.她看到圆盘底部扭曲的星图符号,皱起眉头,"这不是虾人."不."莎拉压低了声音,"那天,天空中有一道光,不是宇宙飞船,而是侦察车.我们认为那是另一个外星人.她话还没说完,隧道突然震动,一道绿光从墙缝中射进来,耀眼而冰冷.人群惊慌失措,有的举枪,有的撤退.谭雅抓起一把能量枪,对准光影,咆哮道:"谁?A figure walked out of the light and shadow - tall and thin, with silver skin, eyes like blue gems, and a translucent body like flowing mercury. The creature said in a mechanical voice: "I am Cassis, the messenger of the Zel tribe, and I am here to track down the shrimp people. Are you enemies?"Tanya put down her gun, her green eyes flashed, and growled: "We are slaves. What about you?"Cassis was silent, scanning her deformed body, and the mechanical voice was calm: "Half a species. You are valuable. Let's cooperate and kill the shrimp people."Chapter 3: Alien TradeCassis waved his hand, the green light expanded, and an invisible spaceship appeared and stopped outside the tunnel. Tanya and Sarah followed him in. The interior of the spaceship was as smooth as a mirror, and the walls were flowing with blue light. The technology far exceeded that of the shrimp people. Cassis stood in the center, projecting a piece of history: the Zel tribe fought with the Shrimp People for a thousand years, their home planet was destroyed by the Shrimp People, they fled to the depths of the universe, and the Shrimp People went into exile on Earth. The Zel tribe tracked them here, lurking and observing, waiting for revenge."The Shrimp People are our enemies." Cassis said in a cold voice, "Your resistance is weak, but there is potential. We give weapons, and you fight on the ground.""What are the conditions?" Tanya asked, her claws unconsciously clenched."After victory, the Earth belongs to you." Cassis said coldly, "We just want the Shrimp People to be exterminated."Tanya looked at Sarah, and Sarah whispered, "We have no choice. The Shrimp People want the 'final purification' and kill us all."Tanya nodded, staring at Cassis with green eyes: "Deal. But you have to prove your sincerity."Cassis waved his hand, and a metal box opened, with energy knives, anti-shield bombs and communicators inside, emitting a faint light. He said, "Try it. Talk when you're satisfied."Tanya picked up an energy knife, the blade lit up, and she cut the iron plate next to her like cutting paper. She whispered, "Enough."That day, the rebels were armed. Cassis left the communicator behind, and the invisible spacecraft disappeared. Tanya gathered the survivors, stood on the ruins, and growled, "We have helpers. The shrimp people want to kill us all, let's kill them first! Who will follow me?"There were whispers in the tunnel, some were afraid, some were angry. An old soldier stood up and shouted, "I'll follow! For James!"More people raised their hands, Tanya nodded, and whispered, "Vicus, this is our chance."The news spread to slave camps around the world through communicators, and survivors in Johannesburg, North America, and Asia responded, hiding weapons and waiting for signals. Tanya held the energy knife, and Vicus's face appeared in her mind. She whispered, "I won't let you down."Chapter 4: Undercurrent of the UprisingIn the next month, the rebels secretly grew with the support of the Zell tribe. The North American base has expanded tunnels, hiding hundreds of people, and the arsenal is full of energy knives and bombs. Tanya trained slaves, using the power of distortion to tear open metal and teach them combat skills. Her body became stronger and stronger, her green eyes could see at night, and her claws could tear the shrimp man's shell with her bare hands. She knew that this was not a victory for mankind, but the price of survival.In the Johannesburg slave camp, Tanya's old companion received a signal, stole the energy knife, and buried it deep in the mine. At the Asian experimental base, Li Ming's apprentice, a young man named Chen Hao, pretended that the distortion was out of control, took the opportunity to steal the communicator, and contacted Tanya: "We are preparing. The experiment can fight."Tanya whispered back: "Wait for my signal."At the same time, the shrimp man emperor Zeka noticed something unusual. In the tower of the 11th District, he summoned the commanders and whispered: "The slaves are moving. Strengthen the guards and prepare for purification."A commander reported: "There was an explosion in North America, and several guards died."Zeka sneered: "Kill them all. Humans don't deserve to live."Tanya stood at the North American base, holding the communicator, and whispered: "Wikus, bless me." She knew that the uprising was coming.Chapter 5: Sparks of RebellionIn the late autumn of the fifteenth year of the Earth's rule by the Shrimp People, in an underground base in the North American wilderness, Tanya stood in front of a group of slaves, her green eyes flashing with determination. She raised the energy knife provided by the Zel tribe, the blade lit up with blue light, and growled: "Tonight, we will light the fire. North America will revolt, and the world will respond. Who will follow me?"The tunnel was crowded with hundreds of people, skinny but with fiery eyes. An old soldier shouted: "I will follow! For James!" Others raised their stolen weapons and shouted in a low voice. Tanya nodded and turned to Sarah: "Has the signal been sent?""Sent." Sarah held the Zel tribe's communicator and whispered, "Johannesburg, Asia, and Europe have all received it. Cassis said that they will support in the sky."Tanya took a deep breath and whispered: "Vikus, this is your battle." She waved the knife to signal, and the team rushed out of the tunnel and rushed straight to the North American slave camp.The night was dark, and the Shrimp People guards outside the camp were defenseless. Tanya led the team to sneak in, the energy knife cut through the shell, and the guards fell silently. She used the power of distortion to tear open the iron door, and the rebels swarmed in. The bombs blew up the sentry tower and the flames shot up into the sky. The slaves were awakened and picked up their hidden weapons to join the battle. The camp became a battlefield, the energy cannons were fired, and the blood of humans was mixed with the green liquid of the shrimp people.At the same time, an uprising broke out in the Johannesburg mine. Tanya's old companion-a miner named Allen-cut down the guards with a stolen energy knife and shouted: "Get up! Tanya is here!" The slaves rushed out of the iron shed and rushed to the core of the mine, blowing up the power station and paralyzing the shield.At the Asian experimental base, Chen Hao led the distorted slaves to counterattack. They used their enhanced bodies to knock open the iron cages, and the stolen energy guns blew up the experimental benches. Chen Hao roared: "For Li Ming!" The experimenters were slaughtered and the base fell into chaos.In the sky, the invisible spacecraft of the Zell tribe appeared, and the green light shot at the shrimp fleet, interfering with the shield. Cassis said through the communicator: "The ground belongs to you, and the sky belongs to us. Hurry up."The initial battle was a victory, the North American camp was liberated, and hundreds of slaves regained their freedom. Tanya stood on the ruins, panting, and her green eyes swept through the crowd. She whispered: "First step. Don't stop."Chapter 6: Alien CooperationThe news of victory spread all over the world, and the uprising in the slave camp spread like wildfire. In the factory areas of Europe, the mines of Africa, and the experimental bases of Oceania, humans counterattacked with stolen weapons, and the green light of the Zell tribe flashed in the sky, suppressing the shrimp-man spaceship. Tanya and Cassis met at the North American base to discuss the next step.Inside the spaceship, Cassis projected a global map, with red dots marking the shrimp-man fortress and blue dots marking the location of the rebels. He said: "The core of the shrimp people is in the eleventh district, and the shield source is there. Blow it up, and they are all finished.""District eleven?" Tanya frowned and tapped the table with her claws. "Zeka is there. We need global cooperation.""Okay." Cassis said coldly, "We will give the bombs, and you will attack. But be careful, the shrimp people have reinforcements."Tanya nodded and turned to Sarah: "Convener, divide into three groups: North America, Johannesburg, and Asia. Once the bombs are in place, we will go straight to District eleven."Sara ordered the global resistance to assemble through the communicator. The North American team was led by Tanya, Johannesburg was handed over to Allen, and Asia was in charge of Chen Hao. The three groups carried anti-shield bombs and sneaked secretly to avoid the shrimp patrols.On the way, Tanya's team was ambushed. The shrimp spaceship fell from the sky, and the energy cannon swept across the ground, killing dozens of people. Tanya threw a child down and blocked the artillery fire with her deformed body. The shell cracked and green blood oozed out. She growled: "Retreat! Find shelter!"The green light of the Zell tribe shot down in time, shooting down the spaceship, and Tanya led the team to escape into the forest. She panted and whispered: "Wikus, they won't let me stop."The North American team suffered heavy losses, but the bomb was saved. Tanya held the communicator and heard Allen's voice: "Johannesburg is in place!" Chen Hao followed up: "Asia is ready!"Tanya growled: "Okay. See you tomorrow in District 11."Chapter 7: The Empire's CounterattackThe shrimp emperor Zeka noticed the scale of the uprising and summoned the commander to the high tower of District 11. He stood in front of the throne and whispered: "Humans are moving, and aliens are intervening. Call for reinforcements and kill them all."A remnant of the mother planet responded, carrying thousands of shrimp warriors and expected to arrive in two days. Zeka ordered a global crackdown, and spaceships were dispatched, energy cannons bombed slave camps, and guards slaughtered rebels. The North American forest was flattened, and Tanya's team lost half of its members. She hid in the tunnel with the remnants and gritted her teeth and said, "We can't stop."At the Johannesburg mine, Allen's team was besieged, the shield was restarted, and the bomb failed. He used the energy knife to fight his way out of the blood, and growled: "Tanya, hold on!" Before the communication was cut off, he was engulfed by artillery fire.At the Asian experimental base, Chen Hao's deformed army broke through the defense line and blew up a spaceship, but when reinforcements arrived, he was hit by the energy whip and fell in the ruins, whispering: "Li Ming, I tried my best..."Tanya received the news, and her green eyes were filled with tears. She held the bomb and whispered, "Vikus, they are dead. I have to go."Sara grabbed her: "Don't be impulsive! The Zell will help us."Cassis' voice came: "Reinforcements will arrive in two days. We will attack in advance, blow up the core, and delay them."Tanya nodded and growled: "Okay. District 11, tomorrow."Chapter 8: The price of sacrificeThe next morning, the remnants of the three routes gathered outside District 11. Tanya's team was only a hundred people left, with the last three anti-shield bombs. The Zell spacecraft covered in the sky, and the green light suppressed the shrimp man's artillery fire. Tanya stood on the ruins and growled: "Blow up the core, kill Zeka. Who will follow me?"Everyone raised their hands, with a desperate light in their eyes. She waved her knife to signal, and the team rushed to District 11.The battle was fierce. The shrimp guards fired with energy guns, and the rebels fell. Tanya pounced on a guard, and her claws tore open the shell, and green blood gushed out. She led the team into the tower, and the bomb was placed next to the shield core. The green light of the Zell tribe shot down the spacecraft, and the sky was full of fire.The core exploded, the shield collapsed, and Tanya rushed to the top floor and faced Zeka. He waved his claws and whispered: "Half, you can't destroy me!"Tanya roared: "For Wikus!" She rushed forward, and the energy knife pierced Zeka's shell. He fought back and his claws slashed her chest. The two fought, and Tanya used the distorted power to tear open his chest armor, and the blade pierced his heart. Zeka fell down and whispered: "The mother planet... is over..."Tanya sat slumped, gasping, and green blood mixed with red blood flowed. She whispered: "Wikus, I did it."
