Devouring and Growth, Greed

In a few blinks and leaps, the special forces squad, with an average health level of 5 or higher, was wiped out.

Looking at the scene of devastation, John expression was gradually becoming frantic, ignored everything else and instead stared at another gene serum that strongly attracted him.

However, when he tried to inject the gene serum into his body, he found that the steel needle could no longer pierce his skin.

They were initially looking for other solutions when they heard a huge explosion outside the laboratory, accompanied by undisguised malice.

Seeing this, the madness in his eyes deepened, and he plunged the gene serum into his eyeball.

"Bang!"

The laboratory's steel door, several tens of centimeters thick, was immediately sent flying more than ten meters away.

The assistant, now 3 meters tall and resembling a lizard man, glared menacingly at John had also transformed into this form.

Heh~ heh~

Its drastic mutation rendered its vocal cords unable to produce human language, and it could only express "You've finally met your match."

However, after John consumed the energy crystal and another gene serum, his growth rate and size rapidly approached 3 meters in height.

Upon sensing the raging power within him and the intense desire to devour life forms of the same level, John no longer hesitated and immediately pounced on the lizardman assistant.

The more rational lizardman assistant rolled away, dodging John's attack.

Before he could react, a sharp claw sliced through the air with a sonic boom, sliding toward the lizardman assistant's neck.

The bio-force fields of the two collided, causing the air to twist dramatically during the collision.

It made a crackling sound.

A violent sonic boom and air current swept through the entire experimental room.

All kinds of instruments and experimental equipment around were instantly destroyed, and all kinds of glass were scattered all over the ground.

Seeing this, the lizardman assistant raised an arm and attacked John as well.

However, one could only watch as John's physique visibly increased.

Amidst the anxiety, reason still prevailed, and one could feel the growing pressure exerted upon them.

"He's growing up too fast; I need to figure something out."

Such a thought crossed my mind.

"Bang!"

As John's size and strength increased, his sanity rapidly declined, and the blood-red color in his eyes gradually filled them.

Suddenly, he exerted force again, sending the lizardman assistant flying more than ten meters away, crashing into the glass window used to observe the remains of the super beast.

The glass shattered into pieces, with the lizardman assistant embedded in them.

Upon sensing the attraction of the wreckage of the super-ferocious beast behind him, he immediately got up and tore apart the thick, blast-proof glass that was blocking his way.

It can be pierced as easily as a piece of paper.

Ignoring John's renewed attack from behind, the lizardman assistant rushed onto the remains of the super beast and began to devour them.

But the now-mad John did not abandon his prey.

It pounced straight on the lizardman assistant, whose body had grown to 4 meters tall, and grabbed its neck.

Between the collision of the two bio-force fields, John, with the higher energy level, broke through the force field within seconds.

His genes harbor an extreme predatory desire for other organisms of the same species, leaving him no room for judgment.

He ripped off the still-struggling limbs, spraying green blood all over the ground.

They stuffed it into their mouths and devoured it frantically.

Watching this scene from high above, Wang An was not at all surprised by John's madness and victory.

"Simply consuming flesh and blood to gain energy won't allow you to reach the extraordinary level."

"To become an extraordinary life form, one must possess extraordinary Law Runes."

Whether innate or acquired through enlightenment, only support at the level of laws can lead to a higher level of transformation.

"Huh?"

Just as Wang An was thinking about how to make John a superhuman being in the Gene Fusion System.

John, who had just devoured the lizardman, had a faint, emanating light of law emanating from his body.

It only becomes apparent after complete digestion.

"Such talent!"

Wang An marveled at this ability to fuse fragments of other professions.

"Perhaps I won't need to intervene anymore; its increasingly unsustainable state will only drive it to continuously devour high-level professionals."

But that was all when John began devouring the remains of the super-fierce beast.

The Area Eleven's security and defense forces have begun to deploy heavy firepower to conduct a large-scale bombardment of this location.

At the defense command center, Dupont, the Area Eleven's top security officer, and other senior leaders discussed the elimination operation.

This site is located 500 meters underground and is a nuclear-grade facility.

Dupont then spoke up.

"Based on the experimental information we just gathered, John has developed a Level 10 gene serum and an even higher-level super-beast gene serum."

A representative of a pharmaceutical giant, upon hearing this, had a greedy look in his eyes.

"Can we capture him? This would be a major breakthrough; we need his body to provide experimental samples."

The research evaluation team, standing nearby, provided the answer.

"It has become a creature akin to a super-ferocious beast, and our attacks are unlikely to inflict any effective damage on it."

"And as you can see, he has grown to 4 meters tall in just over ten minutes."

If we let it devour the remains of that super-powerful beast, we might have to face a humanoid super-powerful beast.

"I recommend immediately deploying a small nuclear bomb to destroy it and prevent it from continuing to cause damage and grow."

For a moment, everyone present was unsure how to eliminate this super ferocious beast that had grown from a human.

After all, if they can successfully capture them, they could potentially mass-produce such gene-based drugs, and then global domination would be just around the corner.

For a time, debates raged between those who favored nuclear annihilation and those who advocated using heavy thermobaric weapons to kill or restrict his movements.

According to information coming from the outside world, missiles and artillery bombarded John, but caused him no harm whatsoever.

Seeing that the group was still arguing, security chief Dupont had no choice but to report the matter to the City in the Sky Ten-Member Council.

After an emergency meeting and discussion, the 10 people unanimously decided to evacuate first.

We observed various data points about John and tried to collect his genetic samples.

"Dupont, you are on standby. If the situation gets out of control, use a nuclear weapon to eliminate it."

Upon receiving this order, he had no choice but to withdraw all armed forces and research personnel from Area Eleven as quickly as possible.

Looking at John, who had grown to 10 meters tall, through infrared detection.

The bio-field covering its body constantly distorts the surrounding air, even though it has no control over it.

Gusts of air rolled in, distorting the view of the optical surveillance.

After witnessing such a creature firsthand, Dupont even began to have some doubts about using a small nuclear bomb to eliminate it.

Wang An, who was observing all of this from the outside, certainly wouldn't allow John, who had already devoured the remains of the super ferocious beast, to remain there.

During the half hour that they ate, apart from those deep underground, almost all life in this area had been evacuated.
