Home Invasion Triangle
The senior engineer glanced at Old Wolf and said, "Well, your kidneys are in good shape, but after this shot, you'll have to move to the rear."
"Uh, isn't tonight a test? Aren't you coming with me?" Old Wolf asked cautiously.
"I've changed my mind, and there will be further actions to take."
Old Wolf's eyes widened suddenly as he struggled to his feet. "I've served the security force! I've shed blood for the tribe! You can't treat me like this! I want to see the Grand Elder! I want to see the Grand Elder!!"
Looking at the old wolf struggling to climb out on the stretcher, the senior engineer curled his lip in disdain.
"Elder, my foot! Going to the chairman won't help you."
After the B-class behemoth died, without the control of the beast tide's will, most of the radiated beasts began to disperse. The remaining small group, driven mad by the mechanical beast army, were frantically killing each other.
The Creepers, Tamil, and other hunters arrived late and only caught this wave.
With a single pounce from the worm-like creature transformed into a crawler, it severed the neck of its last prey, leaving the entire battlefield devoid of any living thing.
A dozen or so frontline hunters gathered around. Each of them had undergone surgical modifications by a senior engineer; some had their weapons enhanced, some their systems enhanced, and some their reproductive organs enhanced, all thanks to the gifts of nature—no, the security force. On average, their strength had increased by 30%.
Now they are eager to get started, looking at the senior engineer with expectant faces.
"Boss, another hunting operation?"
The senior engineer, arms crossed, watched the warriors dissecting the remains of the "Tree Demon Granny" and calmly said:
"Wait."
"Wait for what?"
"Just wait when the boss tells you to, stop making so much noise!"
Since missing the last fight, which resulted in him being missing a part in his arm, the Creeper has become the engineer's most loyal sycophant. When someone asks him questions, he immediately gets angry and retorts.
The senior engineer didn't speak, but waved his hand, and someone immediately dragged over the tree core, which was as big as a rock.
[You have obtained a Grade B Radiation Organ and a Symbiotic Tree Heart]
This thing was destroyed by the senior engineer. If it hadn't been destroyed, there would have been terrible consequences. The self-destruction of a Class B radioactive beast could have taken away at least a third of the people on the field.
Feel the surging power within the 'heart of the tree' and the tree stem that resembles a 'neural network'.
"Another great thing for strengthening the nervous system."
It's certain that the more B-grade radioactive beasts are hunted, the more of these treasures will appear.
The gap between biological energy and mechanical energy will widen further.
The original owner's "human mechanization" was not terrible, but rather mediocre, which led to bio-energy later catching up and continuously widening the gap.
Taking the integration route will only lead to imbalances and problems!
The senior engineer was determined that the "electromagnetic rifle" alone was not enough; he would definitely give the security forces a good thrashing later.
The top-tier military supply depots contain many valuable items that are not available for sale.
But the problem is, am I an outsider? I'm clearly an insider!
The senior engineer remained silent, and no one else dared to speak. For a moment, the scene became eerily quiet.
Soon, a familiar feeling arose. The Legion hackers' remote intrusion really had the Legion's style: simple, brutal, and the simulated code rampaged through the system without any aesthetic appeal.
"Boss," it wasn't Bai Yong who spoke, but Huang Wen.
"Has the situation been investigated thoroughly?" the senior engineer wondered to himself.
"Those two monsters really don't seem to be in the urban area. Of my forty drones, only seventeen were shot down. Three of them circled around the Scarlet Street area without being attacked, which is the Scarlet Queen's lair."
What are your thoughts?
"There are two possibilities. First, they anticipated our actions and prepared to ambush us in the urban area, but this possibility is extremely slim."
"That's right, we're just here tonight to install the motion-sensor equipment; our main objective has been achieved."
The senior engineer's eyes suddenly narrowed, and the terrifying pressure emanating from his body sent chills down everyone's spines.
"Could this be an extreme home swap?"
"No, I already confirmed with Huang Yuanli that there were no signs of invasion in the Auto City, nor in the other three Oases."
"If the beast tide is unleashed, these signs will be impossible to conceal."
"That's strange. If they didn't attack the oasis, where did they go?"
The senior engineer fell into deep thought.
"Even the last two flying behemoths have been moved; they can't possibly go attack the security forces' stronghold."
"Boss, what do we do now? Should we proceed with the plan and retreat?"
"Why retreat? If the enemy can go, so can we. Since they won't steal our homes, we'll steal theirs!"
"Keep a close watch on the four oases. Report any movement to me immediately."
Foreman Gao let out a sigh of relief and, facing the crowd, began to deploy his troops.
"All the old guys, go back."
The surrounding thugs immediately became dissatisfied and began to protest.
"With your pathetic state, what good can five minutes do!"
The senior engineer forcefully suppressed the attack.
"Also, the biological warfare unit is going back."
Sun Hong nodded and accepted the order readily.
The way the Mountain was used before was very problematic for these people.
Whether it's the old rogues or the biological troops, they're not meant to be used to farm mobs.
Defeating bosses is their ultimate goal.
High intensity and short duration can effectively control biological rejection within a certain range.
Therefore, there's no need to worry about them going berserk on the battlefield.
"The rest of you," the senior engineer glanced at his henchmen, "Follow me to attack the city!"
The urban area today is completely different from the one before. A high concentration of blackness covers everything, and any electronic device that enters it will inevitably malfunction. Any species other than the irradiated beasts will be severely weakened if they enter it.
It already shows five or six parts of the future beast nest's charm.
However, since the senior engineer dared to venture into this place, he must have made ample preparations.
The two pairs of iron wings stretched to their limit, with a wingspan of two and a half meters. A large amount of flesh and blood began to cover the wings, and blood-red feathers were squeezed out from the flesh layer.
Biological predation evolution, a unique ability of advanced hunters.
The "predator" is not necessarily the prey; it can also be radiation.
[You have entered a deep radiation field. All attributes increase by 20%. You have gained the status: Beast Tide Blessing]
As the two pairs of wings slowly flapped, a large amount of radiation power gathered, and the senior engineer suddenly felt an itch in his buttocks. In front of his subordinates, he still had to maintain his posture, but with his years of experience in Kegel exercises, he clearly felt that it was not his anus, but the part of his anus that was pointing upwards, which was his coccyx.
The next moment, a 'spine magic spear' as thick as an arm pierced out from the tailbone. With a gentle flick, a large tree that could be embraced by two people was split in two. With a huge crash, the spine rose and fell, and with the force of its four wings, it slowly took flight.
[Through biological predation and evolution, you have gained the ability to fly.]
[Your bio-modification rate +2%]
[Your bioenergy +500]
Sensing the role of the coccyx during flight, the senior engineer suddenly realized.
I was wondering why we couldn't fly before; it turns out we were missing a 'keel'.
The bio-alloy spine inherited from the Ironback Wyvern is the best 'dragon bone'.
The nearly two-meter-long "magic spear" is divided into ten sections, each section being two decimeters long, as thick and long as a forearm, and it rotates flexibly according to the engineer's thoughts. The spearhead is half a meter long, like a double-edged horse-slaying sword.
"Luckily, this thing didn't pierce through my anus, otherwise I would have been bleeding profusely."
The senior engineer felt both relieved and somewhat saddened.
"Now, even the Hulk's underwear can't protect my perky butt."
Fortunately, no one knew what the senior engineer was thinking. All they saw was that in the darkness, their boss's aura became increasingly terrifying. He grew wings and a tail and slowly flew into the air. It was only because the atmosphere was not visible to the moon that it was so far away that it would have been quite similar to some scenes in myths and legends.
The next moment, terrifying black light emanated from the boss. Wherever it passed, the mechanical hunters were astonished to find that the chest tightness, shortness of breath, and goosebumps caused by the 'deep radiation field' disappeared, replaced by a warm feeling.
It seems that strength, agility, and perception have all been enhanced to varying degrees.
Normal beast tides would not affect humans.
But once the senior engineer has absorbed all the radiation into his body, what remains is simply a state enhancement.
Look how good I am to my henchmen; they drink Fukushima beverages and are given nutrient solutions.
Almost simultaneously, the senior engineer sensed the immense energy, which resembled a vast river, and each B-level behemoth was equivalent to an island in the middle of the river.
There are a total of thirteen "river islands", distributed in various urban areas and occupying different territories.
It was indeed much less than expected.
"From this moment forward, I am a Class B radiation leader, and you are my kin. Do you understand what I mean?"
The creeper was the first to react.
"If we become 'radioactive beasts,' we won't be besieged by beast hordes."
"That's right, a skilled hunter often appears as the prey. Now, everyone is forbidden to speak human language; everyone, shout!"
The crowd understood and immediately abandoned all pretense of humanity.
"Awoo awoo, awoo awoo~"
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
"Awoooooo!!!"
"Meow~ Meow~"
"That bastard who meowed like a cat!"
The senior engineer was furious; his hard-earned prestige had suddenly plummeted.
Among the Radiant Beasts, challenges of the same level are very common; that's how the 'Fission Duke' rose to power.
Soon, General Centipede sensed hostility from a Class B gun-and-gun beast, which was 10 miles long, emanating from a radiation field of the same level.
The centipede general slowly rose, his body covered with thousands of implanted weapons, each of which moved flexibly with the rotation of the centipede's legs.
Pistols, rifles, sniper rifles, machine guns, swords, axes, chainsaws, mini grenade launchers, energy weapons—this monster is practically a giant arsenal.
General Centipede was poised and ready, and soon, the challenger appeared in the raging radiation field.
A hint of doubt flashed in General Centipede's eyes. Why did this challenger look a bit like a human? Was it a new species?
Located 5,000 miles away, on the edge of the central desert, is one of three hidden missile launch bases.
Dark clouds quickly covered the sky above the base, simultaneously cutting off all electronic equipment.
"Electronic interruption, electronic interruption."
"What's going on? An unidentified flying object is hurtling towards us at supersonic speed?"
"Activate backup power immediately."
"Report this to your superiors immediately."
However, the next moment, terrifying radiation began to converge, turning from black to white, and from white to bright. The next moment, a terrifying nuclear explosion appeared in the center of the base, with radiation, flames, high temperature, and fission energy almost engulfing everything.
In the center of the raging shockwave, amidst the blooming mushroom cloud, a colossal figure loomed, slowly bowing its head and gazing down upon the world, much like the calamity itself.
At another missile launch site
Tens of thousands of "red lanterns" floated in the sky. Whenever the defensive bullets swept across the lanterns, "drops of flesh and blood" would fall and land on people, eventually implanting into their bodies.
On the ground, the giant carpet of flesh and blood began to engulf the outer defensive walls, and one after another, Class B radiation beasts crossed the defensive walls and stormed into the base.
This isn't just mutual raiding; it's a triangular raid.
You steal my house, I'll steal his house.
