Chapter 179: Experimental Subjects Gone Out of Control
Yun Country was surrounded by water on all sides. It was an island nation with an area of more than 500,000 square kilometers.
Because it was an island country, there were many islands scattered around it.
One of the islands was surrounded by tall iron walls with drones hovering above it 24 hours a day.
Everything was not simple.
There were many speculations regarding this island from the outside world. People believed that it was a secret military base of the Yun Country and that some unspeakable experiment was being conducted inside.
The bright moon hung in the sky.
A loud roar suddenly resounded from within the mysterious island.
Immediately after, the ground shook, and many mountains on the island collapsed. The surrounding high walls swayed as if they were about to collapse in the next second.
One by one, fighter jets tore through the night sky and hovered above a tall mountain on the island.
Soldiers manning three of the transport planes were inspecting their gear.
“Great warriors of Yun Country, are you all ready?”
In the cabin, the sergeants asked loudly with solemn expressions.
The soldiers were excited. They spoke with fervent gazes, “We’re ready.”
“Very good. You are all great warriors of the Yun Country. The country will be proud of you.”
With that, the cabin doors slowly opened.
The bone-chilling cold wind swept over above the surging river.
However, there was no change in the expressions of these soldiers.
“You are all noble warriors.” The sergeants kept repeating these words to boost everyone’s morale.
When the transport planes arrived at the designated location, the soldiers were fearless and jumped down one after another.
When they reached a certain height, they all launched their parachutes and adjusted their directions, looking for a safe landing spot.
The island was almost a dense jungle.
The moon was especially bright tonight, but it was not daytime after all. It was still risky for parachuting.
Thankfully, the soldiers were well-trained and skilled. As a result, they landed safely on the ground.
After landing on the ground, they gathered in groups and observed their surroundings vigilantly.
They each had a multi-purpose watch on their wrist.
There were many red dots moving quickly on the dial.
Their mission this time was to eliminate these red dots.
These red dots were moving randomly, but they all began moving towards them after the soldiers arrived.
In response to that, they all drew their long knives from their belts and put on high-tech glasses that provided them with night vision.
Soon, those red dots appeared near them.
Swoosh swoosh!
The bushes nearby swayed violently, and the sound of branches breaking could be heard.
At this moment, the expressions of all the soldiers changed.
Suddenly, shadows that looked like some kind of wild beast leaped into the air and pounced towards them.
When they got closer, they finally saw what creatures these shadows were.
These shadows were about the size of an adult tiger and were covered in hard scales. They had three pairs of front legs, four pairs of rear legs, and three tails. The ends of their tails were shaped like arrows.
As for their heads, one could not tell what kind of wild beast it was exactly. It seemed to be an alien creature.
Presently, these strange creatures had already arrived above the soldiers.
The soldiers gripped the katanas in their hands tightly. Their gazes were sharp and cold, and their bodies exuded a fearless aura.
It was as if they were invincible with the blades in hand.
The reason for their behavior was closely related to their country’s culture.
Yun Country was one that placed martial prowess above everything else. Furthermore, their technology was also very advanced.
All boys born in the Yun Country would begin practicing martial arts when they were three years old.
Most of them would learn swordplay.
Their Sword Dao was somewhat different from that of Xia Country.
Firstly, their swords were designed differently.
Xia Country’s swords were all straight and double-edged.
As for the Yun Country, they used single-edged curved blades.
This design was called a saber in Xia country.
However, the Yun Country did not differentiate between saber and sword. Sabers were only a type of sword.
When they reached adulthood, these men from the Yun Country would be assessed and given the title of martial warriors.
If one failed the examination, he would practice his swordsmanship until he passed.
Therefore, even though Yun Country was an island nation, it was still strong.
These soldiers were equipped with two katanas. They had practiced the sword from a young age were excellent swordsmen.
Their individual strength was not weaker than a third-rate martial artist.
Plkch! Plkch!
Accompanied with crisp sounds,
the soldiers slashed at the strange creatures.
However, these strange creatures were extremely tenacious. They didn’t immediately die and still had some strength.
For that, the soldiers of the Yun Country swung their sabers and hacked at the strange creatures with all their might.
In the face of the soldiers’ sabers, the scales on the bodies of these strange creatures were like brittle paper, unable to defend against their slashes.
Thus, the situation became one-sided.
A few minutes later, all the red dots on the dial disappeared.
The soldiers heaved a collective sigh of relief as they looked at the corpses of the peculiar creatures around them.
“Sir, Zone A has been cleared.”
“Sir, Zone B has been cleared.”
“Sir, Zone C has been cleared.”
…
One team after another began to report.
However, right at this moment, the ground suddenly shook, causing the people to lose their balance.
It was also then that the watches on the soldiers’ wrists suddenly lit up with dense red dots.
This time, the soldiers’ expressions changed.
Da da da!
They heard the galloping of what seemed like thousands of horses. Trees and bushes collapsed one after another.
Those strange creatures had blood-red eyes, and they surrounded the teams of soldiers in a big crowd.
…
In the command room of the aircraft carriers.
The huge electronic screen was displaying the situation on the island.
“Commander Momo, the experimental subjects on Monet Island have gone out of control. Don’t make any more meaningless sacrifices. I suggest using nuclear weapons to destroy them.”
The young Major Himura Tomi said seriously.
Beside him was a Colonel named Momo Marang.
There were six people in the command room.
Apart from the two of them, there were four other people. One Major, one Lieutenant Colonel, and two Captains.
Marang’s gaze was solemn, and he was very hesitant.
“Sir, there are too many experimental subjects, we… we… Ah!”
“Sir, please send reinforcements. We… I…”
“Sir, please take care of my family…”
The soldiers’ voices came out of the communication device one after another. Many of them were replaced by screams or roars of wild beasts before they could finish speaking.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the command room was especially heavy.
Himura Tomi couldn’t hold back any longer.
He questioned, “Officer Momo, why are you still hesitating? Do you know what it means if the experimental subjects escape?”
“Ha… Actually, I should have realized a long time ago that using the monster genes to transform the human body would bring about a catastrophic disaster sooner or later.”
