nChapter 387: Biological Weapon

nTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

n“Strange.”

nInside the Boshi Tower, in the biological research lab.

nAfter observing and analyzing the life sample of the three-headed monster, Jiu Han suddenly uttered the word “strange.”

nHe looked at the biological samples of the three-headed monster in his hand and turned to glance at the biological samples of the whale harvester he had studied before. He could not help but slowly frown.

n“This is too strange…”

nThis was because through his research, he discovered that although these two things had completely different life forms, there were similarities in their genetic essence.

nThis similarity could definitely not be passed off as a mere “coincidence of natural evolution.”

n“It’s as if… whether it’s the anomalies or these three-headed monsters, they’re all biological weapons produced by the same technology…”

nJiu Han’s muttering was just a hint of insight, equivalent to a joke. However, after saying this, Jiu Han himself was stunned.

nLooking again at the biological tissues of the three-headed monster and the whale harvester, Jiu Han could not help but narrow his eyes and say solemnly, “Could it be…”

nA murky wave emanated from the black shadow, instantly transmitting to a distant place.

nIn another distant no man’s land, as this murky wave swept through, the earth began to undulate and tremble.

nAt this moment, the entire no man’s land seemed to be shaking and squirming, forming ripples… and the direction of the ripples was shockingly where Bai Zhe and the Desolate Demon Lord were.

nBai Zhe and the Desolate Demon Lord were unaware of these events.

nThe two of them just left the settlement to continue their exploration of the unknown.

nBut compared to the monotonous and dull days a few days ago, there was a trace of interest in their eyes at this moment.

nThey thought that this place was desolate and uninhabited, but unexpectedly, they found an abandoned settlement.

nThey thought that there was no danger here, but suddenly, a three-headed monster appeared.

nAlthough to these two guardian-deities, the three-headed monster was pitifully weak and far from dangerous, it did indeed bring a bit of joy to their boring lives.

nThey even hoped for more of these three-headed monsters to appear, to alleviate the boredom of the journey.

nAnd very soon, their wish was fulfilled.

nIn No Man’s Land.

nIt was probably nighttime.

nBai Zhe and the Desolate Demon Lord sat on the ground and ate the food placed in the lunch box in front of them.

nTo the guardian-deities, their need for food and water had already decreased to a terrifying level. Eating and drinking were just to pass the time, to satisfy their appetite.

nJust as Bai Zhe swallowed a piece of beast meat, the sound brought about by the wind made Bai Zhe’s mouth stop squirming.

nHe pricked up his ears and listened carefully. Soon, he looked at the Desolate Demon Lord opposite him.

nHe saw the Desolate Demon Lord also put down the food in his hands, a smirk appearing on his face.

n“Here’s the toy.”

nAs he spoke, he took the initiative to stand up and look behind him.

nBai Zhe also stood up and came to the Desolate Demon Lord’s side.

nWith the faint light from the luminous stones in their hands, the two of them could see the undulating black shadows not far away.

nLike an army that obeyed orders, the densely packed three-headed monsters marched in unison in the direction of the Desolate Demon Lord and Bai Zhe.

n“There are a lot of them.”

n“Yes, indeed.”

nEven with a rough estimate, there were nearly a hundred, and who knew how many monsters were hidden beyond the light?

n“Moreover, it’s a little strange… These things cannot communicate and seem to lack rational intelligence. But judging from the way they are marching in formation now, they don’t seem to be simple monsters. Instead, they seem organized and disciplined…”

n“They’re being controlled by something.” Jiu Han’s voice suddenly came from the Boshi Tower. Then, Jiu Han continued, “After the research, I have a speculation.”

n“These three-headed monsters and the anomalies in the Dead Sea are all biological weapons produced by the same biotechnology, with differences in performance.”

n“On the surface, the three-headed monster is the same as the monsters. They are all irrational and non-intelligent creatures that can’t be communicated with. However, if we look into their essence, they all have a set of behavioral logic unique to them. That is, they are all controlled by humans. The controller behind them is very likely the same person or the same faction.”

nAs soon as Jiu Han finished speaking, Bai Zhe and the Desolate Demon Lord looked at each other, speechless. However, the contempt on their faces from earlier was much less.

nIf these things were indeed derived from the same source as the anomalies… then they might be much more dangerous than what they had previously shown.

nAfter a long time, Bai Zhe suddenly said, “Then, Mr. Lu, how do you want us to proceed?”

nSoon, Lu Ming’s voice came from the tower again.

n“Priority is to stay alive. 1 have a hypothesis that needs verification, but it will take time.”

nBai Zhe immediately nodded, “I understand.”

nAfter Lu Ming spoke, Bai Zhe and the Desolate Demon Lord wasted no time.

nThe two of them decisively turned around and left, no longer intending to engage with the monsters any further.

nUnbeknownst to them, a distant, indistinct black shadow had observed their actions.

nHe sneered, “Run? Where can you run to!?”

n“In this true core layer, where else can you go!?”

nThen, he took a step forward.

nHis entire body was like an illusion as he instantly fused into the ground and disappeared without a trace.

nNo one could see it, but at the location where the shadowy figure had vanished, a massive entity lurked silently underground.

nIt was motionless like an inanimate object.

nHowever, after the black shadow person fused into its body, it abruptly opened its eyes!

nA faint voice emanated from within its body.

n“Hunter activated.”

n“Stage one fusion… complete!”

n“Stage one, deal with two transitional outsiders, that’s enough!”

nBoom!

nThe ground, that even Lu Ming’s strength could not break, instantly exploded.

nA grotesque monster over ten meters tall instantly crawled out of the ground and sprinted towards Bai Zhe and the Desolate Demon Lord.

nNot far away, the moment the hunter activated and burst from the ground, Bai Zhe and Desolate turned abruptly to look behind them. They could now see the true appearance of the creature emerging from the ground!

nIt was entirely black, with scaled armor and a streamlined body. A long tail and well-proportioned limbs moved it forward like a wild beast. On its neck, it sported three heads resembling those of the three-headed monsters!

nAt this moment, the three smooth faces blossomed with visible malice. Black light shot out from its six eyes, instantly striking the Desolate Demon Lord’s body!

nThe demonic aura and the petrifying light frantically intertwined, canceling each other out. In the blink of an eye, the colossal creature named the Hunter had already pounced on the Desolate Demon Lord, instantly carrying him out of Bai Zhe’s field of view.

nBai Zhe frowned and was about to support the Desolate Demon Master when he saw the three-headed monsters not far away suddenly accelerate and rush towards him ferociously.

n“You want to stop me with these things?!”

nA sneer of disdain appeared on Bai Zhe’s face. However, before he could make any move, the ground beneath his feet shook violently.

nIn the next second, a massive hole appeared instantaneously, swallowing Bai Zhe whole..”
