When the cultivators rushed into the base, all they saw was ruins. Even the various buildings within the base were reduced to rubble. There was nothing intact in sight.

A quick clearing of the ground area of the base revealed no survivors; in fact, it was impossible to piece together a complete human being from the entire base.

The base covers a large area. After everyone split up and searched the entire surface of the base, they quickly found an entrance leading underground in a corner of the base, where there used to be a small building.

It's perfectly normal for a base of this size to have an underground section; such places are usually used for confidential matters or things that are not convenient to disclose to the public.

Since the goal is to take over this base, its underground portion will naturally be included as well.

However, it is not a good idea to rashly enter the interior of an underground facility. Before going in, it is necessary to conduct reconnaissance and take various precautions.

Fortunately, aside from other aspects, there were cultivators in the army who were proficient in various fields, and soon several cultivators specializing in reconnaissance stepped forward.

The most widely used reconnaissance spell in the military is the Round Light Technique. This thing is similar to a drone formed from Magic Power, which can detect the situation within a certain range around itself. Moreover, because it is formed from Magic Power energy, ordinary people without cultivation cannot perceive its existence at all.

A team only needs 3-4 people who have learned this spell to be able to explore the surrounding area in all directions without any blind spots, which is very convenient.

In addition to these investigators, several cultivators specializing in protection also stepped forward.

To One Step Ahead of Others and descend into the underground facility, protective measures were essential. After surveying the size of the facility's passageway, these cultivators quickly erected a Magic Power barrier roughly the same size as the passageway, and then, pushing against the barrier, descended into the facility first.

Then came the reconnaissance personnel, who followed closely behind the security team and also ventured deep into the underground facility.

The others began to file in, about 30 seconds after the reconnaissance team had entered.

For cultivators, 30 seconds is enough time to do a lot of things. With that warning time, even if there is any threat inside, it is enough for them to evacuate.

Once underground, you'll see a sloping passageway that's only about three people wide and a little over three meters high. It looks very narrow, and the half-yellow, half-white color scheme gives it a sense of antiquity.

After walking down the passage for about 100 meters, the passage stopped descending, and the view in front of us opened up considerably.

They arrived at a fairly spacious underground level, where the power system was still functioning normally. The whole place looked like some kind of biological laboratory.

Various strange medicines and inexplicable specimens were simply left on the lab table, while the people inside had vanished without a trace.

"Looks like they're doing some kind of biological experiment. Those Japanese have been doing the same thing for years."

Quite a few people from headquarters came to check on the progress, and after seeing the situation on the underground level, they quickly drew their conclusions.

The cultivators who raided the underground site didn't have much contact with the things left behind; who knows what was on them?

After using the Round Light Technique to investigate and confirm that there were no signs of life on this floor, they called in their main force to retrieve the data from this floor and gather all sorts of strange items for later destruction.

While they were busy collecting data, the reconnaissance team ahead sent out information that they had discovered a large number of creatures. However, the scout who reported this was vague, which puzzled the people at headquarters.

Regardless of what kind of creature it is, it must exist on Earth Star; he shouldn't be unable to recognize it.

Upon receiving the report, the main force quickly headed to the location of the reconnaissance team. It wasn't until the main force descended to the second basement level that the scene appeared on the screen at headquarters.

The animals on the second underground level immediately made many people frown.

What the heck? Is this really a creature from Earth Star?

Looking at the strange animals in front of me, some with dozens of eyes, others covered in limbs, some even unable to move and just lying on the ground like lumps of mud, I could tell from their constantly bulging bellies that they were alive.

"What is this?!"

There are many more such creatures on the second underground level, enough to number in the dozens. They are all kept in their own cages, and outside each animal's cage is a corresponding observation platform.

Someone picked up the logbook on the observation platform and glanced at it.

Observation Log of Fallout Biology Omega-222

Day 1.

This guy's been sleeping ever since he got the injection, and he's in terrible spirits. Is he going to die again? Pshaw, I told you this thing is just a load of nonsense."

Day 32

Several eyes appeared on his head. Strangely, these eyes were actually useful, but why were they shaped like that? They looked really ugly.

Note: It has no practical value.

Day 45

This guy seems intelligent. The way it looks at me is so strange. It makes me uncomfortable every time I come over and it stares at me. Sigh, what are you looking at? I'm going to get slaughtered anyway...

After a cursory glance, it appeared to be observations of life within cages. The cage corresponding to this log desk contained a deer-like creature, but it was now kneeling in the cage, with a jumble of eyes growing on its head, making it look quite eerie.

When it saw so many people coming in, it didn't make any strange noises like other creatures; instead, it just quietly watched the cultivators enter.

"It looks like they're conducting some kind of Fallout experiment here."

After reviewing several logs, they discovered that most of the animals here had survived Fallout experiments, so they were kept here for observation.

After reviewing the information they found, they roughly understood what was going on.

Ever since the end of World War II, Cherry Blossom Country has never given up its ambitions. Although they can't get their hands on atomic bombs, they don't need to. After all, after the end of World War II, the number of nuclear weapons that Russia and the Eagle Country had was enough to plow the entire Earth Star.

Nuclear bombs were out of the question, but Fallout wasn't a problem, so they started there, beginning decades of research into Fallout biology, hoping to find a path of evolution, or at the very least, to cultivate monsters like Godzilla.

Unfortunately, despite conducting experiments for many years, very few creatures survived; only a few dozen of them, and not a single one was particularly remarkable.
