Chapter 480: Nate's awakening, the Unknown Artisan's decision "Hah... hah..."
Amid heavy panting, the test subjects inside the power plant's wheels rose one after another, standing in unnatural poses.
They no longer bore any resemblance to their former selves.
Their bodies were emaciated, their heads constantly twitching. Yellowish-brown eyes stared blankly around them, devoid of any awareness.
"Activate the electric shocks!"
The head of the Power Plant Research Department stood in the power plant's control room and issued the order.
Even though his legs were already beginning to buckle...
At his command, the staff pressed the shock button, and the storage batteries prepared in advance began discharging electricity.
Crackle—
Electric current struck the Speedsters' bodies.
The sudden attack immediately triggered a stress response in the Speedster Infected.
They roared and began running rapidly.
Whirr—
Driven by the running Speedsters, the wheels began accelerating, slowly at first, then faster.
Soon, the wheels were spinning at high speed.
As the wheels spun rapidly, their generators produced currents of electricity, which were then collected and transmitted.
The Research Department members, who had long been ready, watched the electrical readings appear on the control room's instrument panel.
They burst into joyful cheers.
"It worked! We did it!"
Hearing that triumphant cheer, the head of the Research Department, who had been trembling at the sight of the Speedster Infected,
let out a long breath of relief.
Then a radiant smile appeared on his face.
"It worked! Our design worked!"
The others behind him had already begun celebrating.
Yu Yuan walked over as well.
"How is it? What's the power output?"
"Leader..." Looking at the readings, the department head said excitedly,
"The output from a baseline of 100 wheels is almost exactly what we predicted. Power output is 285 kW, giving us roughly 6,800 kWh of
