Disaster struck quickly.
The Genetically Enhanced Humans began their revolt, mercilessly slaughtering the Xingyue people. They were particularly fond of consuming human flesh and blood because it allowed them to grow stronger faster. Their offspring became even more exceptional and powerful, but also more brutal and terrifying.
The bloody war raged intensely. It was a war of horrifying technological weapons against the terrifying Genetically Enhanced Humans. They fought until cities lay in ruins, until the earth cracked open, until rivers of blood flowed, and mountains of bones piled up.
A millennium of warfare turned the civilization created by the Xingyue people into a wasteland. The sky was filled with dust, radiation, and corpses, so that not even sunlight could penetrate through.
In the end, humanity was utterly defeated. The remaining 10 million survivors were farmed by the Genetically Enhanced Humans, killed daily for their flesh and blood.
At this point, the several important American figures were terrified, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
"Eventually, these surviving humans all slowly died from the radiation, and every animal went extinct. Without any food, the Genetically Enhanced Humans also starved to death," the Intelligence said in a mournful voice.
Clearly, this ending had been altered. The ultimate secret was not revealed for fear of it being leaked. If the Genetically Enhanced Humans discovered that 1,000 super-powerful SSSS-Class Genetic Enhancers were cryogenically frozen on the second layer of the underground base, they would certainly go to any length to rescue them. That would spell true doom for humanity.
"This... this can't possibly be real! It must be a movie made by the Xingyue people," Griffin said, his face filled with fear.
"Right, right, this might not be true. Old pal, you agree, don't you?" President Faulkner shifted his gaze to the face of China's third-in-command.
"We in China have an incredibly skilled hacker who obtained this recording. Watch it, and you will know whether this is a fictional movie," the third-in-command said solemnly. He then commanded the Intelligence to play the footage of Jack and his group of Genetically Enhanced Humans revealing their secret.
This footage was not taken through Zhang Bin's eyes by Tutu, but rather by the intelligent program that controlled the underground base's recording devices. Therefore, it was far more comprehensive and captured Zhang Bin, Jack, and the others with exceptional clarity.
The frenzied pursuit and their conversations upon entering the base were quickly displayed.
"My God, how is this possible?"
"Jack and the others are actually eating people? They're actually demons? They actually want to establish an empire of Genetically Enhanced Humans and keep humans penned like livestock, slaughtered for their flesh and blood?"
"It's over. We've created so many demons. Humanity is in danger."
Fear was written all over the faces of the three men, and cold sweat ran down their foreheads in streams. Within just a few minutes, their clothes were soaked, and they began to shake uncontrollably.
"Additionally, our hacker obtained this video recording…"
After the third-in-command finished speaking, the 3D image changed rapidly. This time it became blurry and unclear, seemingly captured by a cellphone camera.
It was Jack, with one arm severed, hiding in a secret room and holding an unconscious American in his grasp. He then began to take huge, vicious bites.
"ARGH...!"
The unconscious American woke up and let out a bloodcurdling scream.
"Bob... That's Bob...!" Griffin cried out in fear. Bob was one of his most capable subordinates. Who would have thought he would be captured by Jack and eaten alive, bite by bite?
One could see Jack pinning Bob down, roaring hoarsely as he frantically gulped down fresh blood. The scene was too horrific, too gruesome and bloody.
Jack's appetite was astonishing. He consumed the large man completely, even crushing and eating the bones with his sharp teeth.
He let out a belch. "Barely full, but now I can start healing."
He sat cross-legged, his body emitting a faint white light. His bloated stomach slowly deflated. His injuries healed at a visible rate; even his severed arm gradually grew back.
Finally, he stopped channeling his energy, stood up, and sneered, "If humans discover our secret this time, then we must strike first. I'll start by eating President Faulkner, then Mikemay and Griffin…"
The three men were so frightened they nearly wet themselves. Griffin collapsed onto the ground, unable to stand back up.
Faulkner and Mikemay were slightly better off, but they were still pale and shaky.
It was a long time before they managed to compose themselves.
Faulkner immediately had Griffin make a call to investigate Bob's whereabouts. The results came swiftly: Bob had been missing for several days, having disappeared on the night of the incident at the base. The police were still searching for him, but there was no news.
"Quickly, check if there's been any change in the number of missing persons recently!" Faulkner shouted in panic.
The results arrived quickly. For the last few years, the number of missing persons in America had increased annually. However, since most were ordinary people, it hadn't drawn much attention.
"It seems we've truly created many demons," Mikemay said in terror. "What's terrifying is that we've also been creating them in the Island Nation and other countries. The numbers are already substantial. If they start to breed, it will be horrifying. What do we do?"
"There is no other way. We must eradicate them all, leaving none behind. A single survivor would be a future calamity," the third-in-command said with utmost seriousness.
In the following days, America and China began to cooperate. They covertly assembled their strongest Superpower Users and Cultivators and sent them to various parts of the world—including America, the Island Nation, and other developed countries—to eradicate the Genetically Enhanced Humans.
With Tutu providing intelligence, the campaign against the Genetically Enhanced Humans went very smoothly. In just under a week, ninety-nine percent of them were eradicated.
Regrettably, some still slipped through the net. Jack, for instance, had escaped. He was the most vigilant because he was the one who had leaked the secret of Genetically Enhanced Humans eating people, so naturally, he had remained on guard.
Moreover, some powerful SSS-Class and SS-Class Genetically Enhanced Humans broke through the encirclement and vanished into the vast sea of humanity. They were extremely powerful, and hunting them down would be no easy task.
Even Tutu couldn't track them. They were extremely cautious, not even carrying cell phones. They altered their appearances and hid among the general population or in remote mountains and forests.
If the Genetically Enhanced Humans were to hide and breed rapidly, they would surely make a comeback. Regardless, it was undeniable that the Genetically Enhanced Humans had become a major scourge.
Moreover, they posed a tremendous threat to Zhang Bin.
Because Jack, through various means, had discovered that the person who killed Edward was Zhang Bin, a participant in the World Gambler Competition. He also deduced that Zhang Bin was the one who had fled into the underground tunnel and revealed their secret about eating humans.
So, he issued a terrifying assassination order. It was a coded message, posted online—a secret language used for communication among Genetically Enhanced Humans. Only other Genetically Enhanced Humans could comprehend its meaning. Tutu eventually managed to crack it.
The message was a kill order demanding the assassination of Zhang Bin from China's Sanchahe Village. This was to avenge their many comrades killed by humans. It was signed by Jack, one of the few surviving SSS-Class Genetically Enhanced Humans and one of their leaders.
"I'm just afraid you won't come. If you do, I'll exterminate you all," Zhang Bin sneered. He had set up a protective sect array plate in Sanchahe Village, turning it into an iron fortress. However, he remained vigilant. If several more SSS-Class Genetically Enhanced Humans were to attack, the formation might not hold.
Therefore, he needed help. His pets alone were not enough. His best option was to cultivate a large number of powerful disciples!
But how could he achieve this?
After pondering for a long time, Zhang Bin's eyes lit up as he murmured to himself, "Perhaps I can select and train disciples through the Longyin Martial Arts Hall!"
