Beginning the Invasion of the Technological City
The recon squad members went from danger to safety.
Without realizing it, they blindly came to trust Tomie.
Then they brought back the electronic curse video of Sadako, whom they had never seen before.
This left them completely off guard, allowing Sadako to successfully invade.
This method had indeed worked.
The recon squad members all passed safely by the Withered Well where Sadako was.
But they didn't know that Tomie, holding the recorder, had already captured Sadako on film.
Laughing, Tomie once again walked ahead to lead them.
Every member of the recon squad stared at Tomie in a daze.
They wondered how they could make such a beautiful girl, whom they'd fallen in love with at first sight, their girlfriend.
Soon, under Tomie's guidance,
they made it out of the forest without incident and reached the place where their fighter jet was parked.
And just as they arrived,
half an hour had passed.
The communications band that Siren Head had disrupted earlier returned to normal.
A call from the city control center immediately sounded in the recon squad's earpieces.
"Calling the recon squad, calling the recon squad!"
The recon squad leader kept his eyes fixed on Tomie as he answered the control center.
"Recon squad receiving you."
The professor and the others in the city all smiled.
They hadn't lost contact completely. The squad was still alive.
"Recon squad, have you found anything?"
The recon squad leader quickly told them what they had encountered.
"We were rescued by a beautiful lady. She knows this place, and we're preparing to bring her back with us."
The professor and the researchers at the city control center
were stunned when they heard the descriptions of the strange creatures there.
They soon recovered.
"Return approved!"
They could hardly wait to study what those creatures were.
And this time, they were also bringing back someone who knew what was going on inside.
That would give them a much more detailed understanding of this anomalous space.
As for whether they had ever suspected Tomie's existence,
of course they had.
But every member of the recon squad insisted that she meant no harm and was a good person.
Besides, she was just a frail young woman. If there was a problem, they could simply execute her.
So they didn't give the matter a second thought.
The fighter jet took off and quickly headed back to the city.
Seeing this, Shen Hui smiled.
The recording of Tomie and Sadie's video in the fighter jet would become the seed that destroyed their city!
The fighter jet returned to the city.
The recording from the recorder was delivered to the professor and the others.
Tomie, meanwhile, was assigned to a room.
However, none of the returning recon personnel were willing to leave Tomie. They wanted to stay with her.
The city's highest-ranking combat commander, who was in charge of all the recon and combat personnel,
was furious that they were disobeying orders. He immediately went to the room where Tomie was staying.
But the moment he saw Tomie's face, he understood why his subordinates had refused to leave.
This woman was simply too beautiful!
The commander, who was over fifty, felt as though his second spring had arrived.
Without hesitation, he forcibly drove the recon squad members out of the room.
The commander decided to be alone with Tomie, admire her properly, and cultivate a bond with her.
Seeing how he acted,
Tomie merely covered her mouth and giggled.
That single laugh instantly captivated the commander.
Meanwhile, the professor and the researchers in the lab
decided to examine the information on the recording first, then question the person they had brought back.
The footage from the recording was projected onto the big screen.
It began with the recon squad getting off the plane.
Soon, Siren Head appeared on the screen.
All the researchers sucked in a sharp breath.
They had only heard about it before. Now they were seeing it with their own eyes.
The shock was completely different.
"What kind of creature is that? It's so huge, and it has two loudspeakers for a head. It can make all kinds of sounds."
"Could it be some kind of high-tech robot?"
"Very likely, but I don't think it's just a robot. It looks more like a semi-biological robot."
"This is a field we haven't explored yet. If we capture it, perhaps we'll be able to figure out how to create one!"
These researchers had no idea what to make of a creature like Siren Head.
Based on their understanding, they simply classified it as a biological robot.
The footage continued, and they skipped the useless parts.
Soon, it reached the Pig-headed Butcher.
"What kind of creature is this? Those blue pigs with several eyes, and that pig-headed, human-bodied creature!"
"Look! The recon squad members clearly killed it, but a lump of flesh appeared where the pig-headed creature died, and then it turned into a gigantic monster pig!"
"It's devouring human corpses, and its injuries are healing rapidly!"
"What the hell is this thing? It doesn't look like a robot at all!"
Although all they were watching was a recording, the Pig-headed Butcher's transformation and the way it ate people
still filled them with tremendous fear.
This was another creature they had never seen or learned about before.
No! Perhaps it couldn't even be defined as a creature!
The unknown filled people with tremendous fear.
But they suppressed their fear and prepared to continue watching.
Soon, they saw Tomie meet the recon squad.
Although it was only a recording, at first sight of Tomie, every researcher except the women
couldn't help exclaiming that the girl was incredibly beautiful.
She perfectly matched their fantasies about their ideal partner!
But one of the female researchers immediately raised a question.
"This is the girl the recon squad brought back. Her appearance is highly suspicious. How could she be living alone in a place like this?"
But the other researchers immediately spoke up:
"She clearly looks like a frail young girl. What could be suspicious about her?"
"Besides, the recon squad members all vouched for her. She's safe, and they only managed to escape because of her."
The male researchers all spoke up one after another, defending Tomie.
The female researcher sensed that they were all acting a little strangely.
But after thinking it over, she agreed. What danger could a girl pose?
And she was already inside their base.
According to the recon personnel's report, they had only encountered those things.
The footage recorded afterward probably wouldn't contain anything useful.
But just as they were about to turn it off,
suddenly!
The projected footage flickered, and black bars appeared.
Then it quickly began to flicker with static, accompanied by a crackling sound.
It was just like losing signal.
But this was only a recording. Where would the signal come from?
Besides, the precision instruments they were using wouldn't malfunction.
But just then, the snowy screen flickered again.
A distant scene appeared.
It showed a black-and-white Deadwood Forest.
The ground was covered in fallen leaves, and more leaves drifted down from the sky now and then.
At the center of the distant scene, the camera was aimed at a Withered Well.
