"This is a treasure trove! Once the mission is completed, everyone will receive their share!"

Colonel Packard, the usually stern black commander, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the young men around him beaming with joy, and nodded slightly to Professor Randa.

Previously, during the day in the jungle, they encountered a large number of monsters chasing and intercepting them, and were in great danger.

Colonel Packard even lost two soldiers in the line of duty, a tragic situation that made him harbor some resentment towards Professor Randa.

After all, this black commander, who possessed the ability to fight in extremely harsh environments and was determined to protect the safety of everyone in the team, could only steal his comrades' "dog tags" and watch helplessly as their bodies were dragged into the cave.

However, even if this discovery cannot allow those brothers who have passed away to be draped in the Stars and Stripes and die with dignity, it can at least help their families live a comfortable life.

Therefore, Colonel Packard agreed to follow Professor Randa's instructions to use survey bombs to measure the Earth's crustal structure and collect soil and rock samples.

The reason for taking such a risk was that the sacrifices made by the members during the day had not been in vain.

During the biological sampling process, Professor Randa made a significant discovery by dissecting the corpses of some monsters.

That is, the anomalous creatures on Skull Island all seem to have an energy core called "Honkai energy crystal," which varies in size.

Furthermore, this kind of Honkai energy exists in the earth's crust and water sources, and it has great benefits for the human body.

Subsequently, an excited Professor Randa, based on geological surveys, selected an area with severe magnetic field disturbances as a breakthrough point and finally found the dense area of this mineral deposit.

However, as you get closer to success, there will always be all sorts of things that diminish your sense of accomplishment.

At that moment, the roar of some Beast from the distant mountains and forests made Professor Randa's expression change. He frowned and signaled the Sky Fox Squadron to set up a defensive line and protect the mineral deposits behind them.

Since it concerned his own interests and the compensation for his soldiers, Packard naturally agreed. The well-trained troops immediately sought cover and drew their weapons to stand guard.

Meanwhile, in the mountains and forests.

Mira flung one of her Nepalese kukri knives, its blade slicing through the dense bushes to her left.

Amidst the clanging of metal, an Asian woman with a bob haircut, dressed in leather pants, blew a puff of smoke from her sidearm Rose of Fate, and walked gracefully towards them.

"Good reaction. Since we're both human, here's a piece of advice: take your people and get out of here immediately! It's very dangerous!"

Conrad stared warily at the snake symbol on Jill Hera's pistol, his brow furrowing slightly.

"[Wild Serpent]? You bunch of madmen obsessed with bio-engineering, what are you doing on Skull Island?"

"Could this place have become your testing ground?"

Jill Hera's face was cold and indifferent. The only people who could immediately recognize her background were the members of her old nemesis, the [Deep Sea] special agents.

Clearly, this perceptive tracking expert likely underwent testing and training in the [deep sea].

Since you are enemies of the [Wild Serpent], and have sought your own death, then so be it.

Jill Hera, with a look of utter disbelief, turned and sneered, preparing to leave this dangerous place and reunite with King Kong and Koko in another direction.

At this moment, Conrad, still harboring doubts, quickly drew his gun and pointed it directly at the suddenly appearing members of the [Wild Serpent] organization.

"Miss, your motives are quite questionable. Please come with us. I don't like being rude to ladies, really."

Jill Hera slowly turned her head, her eyebrows raised, her tone mocking.

"Hmph! A newbie who's just learned to activate his Gene Lock to enhance his senses probably hasn't even passed the [Deep Sea] graduation exam."

"You think you can stop me? You think you're worthy?"

Immediately, Jill Hera's figure transformed into scattered red Rose petals, flashing into within a step of Conrad.

"Bang!"

As fists and feet clashed, the bushes on both sides were swept away as if by a whirlwind, leaving a mess. Conrad stiffly turned his neck and saw the destructive power unleashed by the aftershocks around him, his face turning pale.

It's a sheet of iron! And it's a woman!

"He can't do it, I'll give it a try. It's been a while since I've had a physical fight, and lately my bones are itching for a fight..."

Mira withdrew her right hand, smiled, and stepped forward. She pressed her left hand against her right shoulder, stretching her muscles, clearly showing some excitement at the prospect of a hunt.

"Alright, I'll play along to the end!"

Jill Hera drew the Rose of Fate, raised her hands, and gave a cold smile.

Just as the two adjusted their attack angles and were about to clash, the hissing of lizards came from the blasted passage on the mountainside in the distance.

Immediately, three or four ferocious figures darted forward, crushing the lights before bursting into the camp and attacking from both sides.

"Ho... ly Sh... it! Fire! Fire!"

Colonel Packard, who was in charge of guard duty, narrowly escaped the first wave of attacks thanks to the camouflage that black people have at night and his excellent military skills.

When he looked up from behind the boulder, he saw four monsters with armor-like bones on their heads, resembling large lizards and nearly tens of meters long, rampaging through the camp and slaughtering his men. He was instantly filled with rage and organized a resistance.

However, even the powerful machine guns in the Sky Fox Squadron's hands, along with the several reconnaissance mines they had laid earlier, were like scratching an itch through a boot, having no effect on the four-limbed Skull Lizard's hunting.

On the contrary, the bright light from the firing of guns and the use of tactical flashlights caused the team members to be exposed one after another, and they were the first to be eaten by the Skull Lizard.

"Fcuk! Mother Fuck!"

Watching his comrades scream and their limbs fly off one by one, with large amounts of blood and colorful organs scattered everywhere, the black commander, who cherished his subordinates greatly, felt his heart bleed.

In a moment of madness, Colonel Packard jumped out of his hiding place, picked up the Electromagnetic Hand Cannon that Monarch Organization had procured for officers from Anti-Entropy, and fired wildly at the bulging eyes of the Skull Lizard on his left.

The eerie blue electromagnetic missile slammed down, instantly blowing half of the massive Skull Lizard's head off.

Even with its red and white brain matter exposed to the air and constantly writhing, the Skull Lizard actually managed to stand up, its forked tongue angrily coiling towards the dark-skinned monkey with its skin-colored stealth enhancement.

"It's over!" Colonel Packard's eyes showed despair.

ps: Thank you to the reader@ Time Reef Two Blades for urging me to update it, and thank you to the reader @zzofi's origin form 4 spicy sticks for the reward.

The third update will be released around 8 PM.

The male lead is currently slacking off, waiting for Alice's teammate's killer buff to wear off before anything else happens, right?

How can the appearance of the real girlfriend be justified if at least one or two people die?

The green light can only be cleansed with blood light.

Chapter 429, Section 450: The Little Crocodile's Tears (Third Update)

"Roar!" At the critical moment, a chimpanzee nearly 40 meters tall rushed over and knocked the Skull Lizard with its tongue sticking out from the side.

Amidst the deafening roar of collapsing rocks, King Kong rode atop the bloodied Skull Lizard, one hand plunging into its brain and stirring wildly, the other gripping its throbbing jaws.

Immediately, the berserk chimpanzee exerted its strength and tore the Skull Lizard beneath it in two.

The filthy blood rained down from the sky, drenching Packard directly on the head and face, and a pungent, fishy stench filled the air.

However, before the defeated mercenaries could react, the remaining three Skull Lizard, upon seeing their nemesis King Kong, immediately stopped hunting and hissed as they surrounded him.

King Kong pounded the ground with his fists, ignoring Koko's gestures for reinforcements behind him, and charged forward with bloodshot eyes.

It clearly remembered that its parents, in order to protect it when it was young, drove the group of reptiles that emerged from the ground back to their dark nest.

After that great battle, his parents were also seriously injured and died one after the other.

Four colossal beasts fought fiercely in the darkness, driven by a hatred etched into their genes, each determined to kill the other.

However, even as a young Kong, it was still a bit of a struggle to fight three Skull Lizard, especially since lizards are more adapted to the nighttime environment.

As the tides turned and the tides shifted, a fierce battle ensued, and new wounds were continuously added to King Kong's body.

"Bang!"

Koko leaped onto the rocky outcrop, drew her exquisite silver feather-adorned pistol, and fired repeatedly at the Skull Lizard.

Her wrist moved rhythmically with the vibrations of the gun barrel, rising, releasing the force, falling, calibrating, and firing like a drumbeat. Each bullet was fired with fluid grace, demonstrating remarkable skill.

Having spent a long time in the Queen of firearms and equipment, Koko is extremely familiar with the performance and usage of various firearms.

Therefore, this 2nd Holy Relic, which she acquired from the St. Freya Academy, became even more powerful in her hands, and was also a trump card used by unscrupulous merchants to guard against Jill Hera.

Of course, the main reason why the 2nd Relic was chosen by Koko from her collection and kept close to her body is that it is said to be the sidearm of her idol.

"What are you standing there for! You little rascals! Spread out! Cover fire! That gorilla is helping us!"

Once he regained his senses, Colonel Packard shook off the sticky bloodstains on the Electromagnetic Hand Cannon and, using the public channel, roared to rally his scattered soldiers.

Packard had the insight to discern friend from foe, but the absurd experience of being saved by a woman and Beast left this proud and arrogant war hero feeling somewhat stifled, and his tone became a little harsher.

Fortunately, the Sky Fox Squadron was a professional unit that had been through the baptism of fire. After stabilizing its formation, it opened fire from various bunkers to support the gorilla.

Just as the two sides were exchanging blows, the trees behind the Skull Lizard were snapped in half by a hail of gunfire.

Rose of Fate, unleash your fury!

The bullet, enhanced by Gene Resonance and Honkai energy, pierced the head of the last Skull Lizard with a sharp blast of air.

As blood splattered, the head covered in bone armor exploded in mid-air with the final gunshot, scattering pools of red and white liquid everywhere.

Even more incredibly, the blood-soaked movie star Mira actually jumped onto the neck of another Skull Lizard.

As Mira ran and leaped, the Gurkha Knife, which was embedded in the flesh of the Skull Lizard's nape, spun once and severed the monster's head.

Captain Conrad, who had a preliminary grasp of the Gene Lock, vaguely saw in the darkness that the spraying blood rain, when it fell on Mira, seemed to be bounced off by an invisible wall, without staining the woman's clothes at all.

"Hiss!" The last Skull Lizard felt a sense of satisfaction upon seeing the monkeys in front of it become so ferocious, and turned to flee towards the blasted-open hole.

However, with its hands and feet free, King Kong pounced forward and crushed its head in a tight grip.

As the morning light pierced the horizon and shone upon this Barren Land, the ordinary people of the Monarch Organization leaned against each other, collapsed on the ground, panting heavily, their faces filled with the relief of surviving a catastrophe.

At the mountaintop, the blood-soaked gorilla, facing the rising sun, excitedly pounded its chest, seemingly celebrating its growth.

As everyone gazed at the enormous shadow cast by King Kong, they couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of nature.

Although Professor Randa was facing a major problem, the gorilla's behavior and its friendliness towards humans piqued the interest of this scientist who was passionate about the study of ancient organisms.

Just as the photography crew and geological exploration team, who had suffered more than half their losses, were preparing to retrieve their equipment and quickly move away from this terrifying place, a rustling sound came from the woods to their right.

"Excuse me..."

"Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!"

As soon as a white-haired boy cautiously peeked out from the woods, more than a dozen guns were pointed at his forehead.

"Bang!"

Overwhelmed by the mental stress, one of the young Black men even pulled the trigger with a trembling hand, and the whistling bullet struck the boy squarely in the forehead.

"When!"

Just as the young black man was filled with regret, a True Silver Cross Sword swept across the sky, cleaving the bullet in two.

"Gentlemen, we mean no harm. We just heard the commotion and came to inquire about the situation."

At that moment, a beautiful, gentle blonde nun emerged from the shadows, speaking sincerely and even offering a comforting look to the young black man who had accidentally fired his gun.

Kevin smiled on the surface, but in his heart he was cursing.

No one would be happy to have a dozen guns pointed at them the moment their innocent little face appeared. This was the first time someone had ever been shot while trying to be cute.

What troubled him even more was that the gorilla in the distance was actually hanging out with two women he knew very well.

Jill Hera sneered, grabbed Koko was running backward, and pointed her gun at CC, who was following Kevin. The meaning was clear.

"Sister Koko! Sister Jill! I'm so glad you're alright!"

"I thought... I thought I'd never see you all again..."

While Jill Hera was still in a daze, the boy, "surprised and delighted," ran and bumped into Jill's arms, rubbing his cheek affectionately against her arm, and even squeezing out a few crocodile tears from the corners of his eyes.

"What are you up to? My demand is simple: give me back the Holy Grail, and I'll tie Koko up and give her to you. Otherwise..."

Jill Hera crouched down, a relieved "smile" on his face, his gaze sweeping over the geological team and photography crew standing around him, a hint of threat in his eyes.

"Are you sure you want to ruin things? The owner is standing right behind me, and given the current situation, you seem to be more suspicious than we are..."

"Firstly, [Wild Serpent] has a well-known reputation; secondly, these lizards are so similar in size to the gorillas behind you, who can guarantee there's no connection between them?"

"Of course, as long as you get off the island safely, I wouldn't mind lending you the Holy Grail to try and see if it can cure your foster mother."

Kevin's combination of firm and gentle persuasion made Jill Hera think for a moment, and she abandoned her previous coercive plan, temporarily reaching a reconciliation with the kid in front of her.

However, to vent her anger, Jill Hera reached out and pinched Kevin's cheek hard with a half-smile, her words laced with barbs.

"You're not dead, that's wonderful! I'm so relieved, little brother!"

The members of the Monarch Organization breathed a sigh of relief when the misunderstanding was cleared up, and the atmosphere at the three-way gathering gradually became harmonious.
