Chapter 183: Experimental Subjects Made Public, The World Is Shocked
“Attention all, there are two groups of experimental subjects approaching the east and west cliffs, respectively.
“5th Company, head to the cliff in the east.
“6th Company, go to the western cliff.
“The rest will guard the front and increase firepower.
“There aren’t many experimental subjects left. Given the situation, the battle should end in ten minutes. I hope that everyone will not slack off.” Gao Tianliang commanded.
Once the order was given, the 5th and 6th Companies immediately retreated from the main battlefield and headed towards the east and west cliffs.
The cliffs were a kilometer away from the beach.
When the 5th Company and 6th Company soldiers arrived at the road, they immediately headed to their respective battlefields.
Instead of using transportation, they ran.
The Black Tiger Battalion was an elite troop because their soldiers were all martial artists at the second-rate and above.
Second-rate martial artists could cover 100 meters in six seconds. With their mechanical exoskeleton armor, their speed would only be faster.
Although the new recruits of the Hero Company had undergone martial arts training before, they had only done so for a few months. Their improvement was limited. They were limited by the human body.
Their speed was comparable to that of a world champion.
However, the armor they wore had outstanding performance. It was the most advanced armor developed by Xia Country.
Hence, with the help of the armor, their speed increased multiple times. When they ran, they were not much slower than the veterans of the Black Tiger Battalion.
…
“Zhao Xuanxuan, Sun Lingxiao, are you two alright?”
As the girls’ escort, w.a.n.g Ertiao did his best to protect Zhao Xuanxuan and Sun Lingxiao.
He was worried that he was too fast and that they would not be able to keep up.
After all, they were young girls. He didn’t think they would be as fit as men.
However, Zhao Xuanxuan and Sun Lingxue’s performance had greatly exceeded w.a.n.g Ertiao’s expectations.
Zhao Xuanxuan was an immortal cultivator. Although she was far from the sect, she did not slack in her cultivation at all.
Every once in a while, Qin Chuan would use a teleportation array to send her spirit stones and spirit pills.
This was because Zhao Xuanxuan was a Fire Phoenix Soul. With so many cultivation resources, she had already reached the peak of Qi Refinement.
Right now, she did not even need to circulate her True Qi. Her speed alone was faster than a Martial Grandmaster.
On the other hand, Sun Lingxiao had only started cultivating for a few months. She had Huang Huang and the Bamboo Spirit with her.
With the help of these two, Sun Lingxiao didn’t need to run with all her might. She could move very fast without any effort.
She found it amazing.
After seeing that Zhao Xuanxuan and Sun Lingxiao could keep up, w.a.n.g Ertiao was very surprised and embarra.s.sed.
This was because he was a second-rate martial artist and had the armor’s support, yet their speed had easily matched his.
He was worried that they wouldn’t be able to keep up, but now that he thought about it, his worries seemed a little redundant.
w.a.n.g Ertiao felt very awkward.
…
Soon, the 5th Company arrived at the eastern cliff.
At this moment, there were already experimental subjects climbing up from the cliff.
Without another word, everyone raised their Gatling guns and started shooting.
At the same time, the battle on the western cliff began.
Right now, the front, west, and east cliffs of the New Roe Coast were guarded by the Xia military.
With such powerful firepower, they were impregnable. As a result, not a single experimental subject managed to break through the defense lines.
Ten minutes later, there was no longer any trace of the experimental subjects on the surface of the sea.
The command room repeatedly investigated, and after confirming that there were no energy fluctuations from the experimental subjects, they announced the end of the battle.
This meant that the annihilation mission was completed successfully without any mishaps.
Hearing the instructions from the command room, everyone on the battlefield exhaled heavily.
Although they seemed to be handling the battle with ease earlier, talking and laughing with each other, they were actually in a very tense state.
After all, this was a battlefield, not some sort of game.
The situation on the battlefield was ever-changing. No one could guarantee that everything would go smoothly unless they could crush everything.
Otherwise, they might just die at one point in time.
Therefore, they had to stay focused at all times.
This battle brought a lot of shock to the new soldiers in Hero Company.
Although they did not experience a life-and-death situation under the protection of the Black Tiger Battalion, they had truly experienced what a real battlefield was like.
This experience was very helpful for their growth.
…
After the battle ended, they began to clean up.
As far as the eye could see, the ground was covered with the remains of the experimental subjects. They were piled up into small hills, and there were at least tens of thousands of them.
More importantly, this was not all of the experimental subjects in Yun Country.
However, since New Roe was the closest to Yun Country, those experimental subjects that had gone out of control arrived here first.
Of course, all of the experimental subjects were definitely not just going to move towards one place. Most of the experimental subjects had already spread throughout the world.
It was expected that many small countries near the sea would suffer.
In fact, all the countries were aware that the Yun Country carried out genetic modification on monsters.
Although they had been warned multiple times, it was obvious that they would not stop their research.
The impact that this incident brought to the entire world could not be estimated for the time being. But one thing was for sure, the Yun Country was probably doomed.
The first was compensation. No matter how prosperous their economy was, they were destined to lose everything.
However, these were all things for the future. They wouldn’t be able to run away anyway.
Presently, the coastline of New Roe was on fire. The flames lit up the entire night sky.
After the Xia country’s military wiped out the experimental subjects, they picked out a few remains that were relatively intact and started cleaning up the battlefield.
They used special-cla.s.s combustion grenades to burn all the corpses on the beach.
As for the remains of the experimental subjects in the sea, they were all retrieved using large nets and brought to the beach to be burnt.
While clearing the battlefield, the Black Tiger Battalion received another mission.
It was still about the experimental subjects.
The small countries around Xia Country discovered the energy fluctuations of the experimental subjects in succession.
The small countries were even weaker than New Roe. So, although there weren’t many experimental subjects, they were still worried.
Just like that, the Black Tiger Battalion sent out five companies to wipe out the experimental subjects for them.
The remaining companies and the Hero Company were responsible for cleaning up the battlefield.
There were a lot of experimental subjects. It was very easy to wipe them out, but it was a ma.s.sive clean-up.
It wasn’t until daybreak that the remains of those experimental subjects in the sea were recovered entirely. No one knew how long it would take for them to be completely incinerated.
At the same time, the government of Yun Country held a press conference.
This press conference shocked the world and caused a huge sensation.
The Yun Country was very sincere. They explained the situation of the experimental subjects going out of control and admitted that their country had been researching genetic modification techniques.
Of course, they did not say that the experimental subjects were modified using the monster genes.
All the countries had signed an agreement regarding the monsters. However, they could not announce it to the world for now.
At the press conference.
The Yun Country showed the world a sample of the experimental subjects.
When the reporters saw the strange creature, they were in shock.
Creatures that looked like they were from science fiction movies actually existed in reality.
Then, the researchers from Yun Country answered the reporters’ questions about the experimental subjects.
For example, body structure, habits, living environment, and more.
The most important question that everyone was concerned about was the danger level of the experimental subjects.
The researchers from Yun Country didn’t answer this question immediately. Instead, they asked their superiors first.
Because of this, the reporters present had managed to formulate their own conclusions.
