Chapter 1542: The Experiment Must Continue

Since monsters carried all kinds of bacteria and viruses in their bodies, even if there was no visible damage on their protective clothing, there was no guarantee that the deadly bacteria had not penetrated the skin and invaded the human body.

After twenty-four to forty-eight hours, humans could become zombies or even more terrifying monsters.

Although there were no symptoms of poisoning or mutation for the time being, all the researchers had to stay there for observation and further tests.

The researchers who had come to the rescue could not help but complain, especially about the ones who had added the characteristic of “spitting venom” to the Demonic Halberd Pig without telling everyone in advance.

As a result, some had been caught off guard and killed.

“We didn’t know that the Demonic Halberd Pig had the ability to spit venom!”

The Demonic Halberd Pig’s modulators clicked their tongues in wonder. “We didn’t take the initiative to carry out genetic modification in this area. The fact that this Demonic Halberd Pig possesses poison glands and the ability to spit poison has never been exposed in our daily experiments.”

“The Demonic Halberd Pig is supposed to be one of the dumbest and most violent monsters.”

“It can actually endure to such an extent. It’s truly unbelievable!”

God Transformation 9.0 seemed to be the core project of this underground laboratory.

The researchers in charge of God Transformation 9.0 also had more authority than everyone else.

Serious injuries and even death were common occurrences in that underground laboratory.

Although the researchers complained nonstop, after they received a reasonable explanation and were promised high subsidies, as well as rare experimental materials, they obediently followed orders.

Meanwhile, Meng Chao concentrated 90% of his perceptive ability on the lead researcher who seemed to have the highest status in the God Transformation 9.0 project team.

Through the negative-pressure helmet, one could see that this man was refined, and he had white hair on his temples. He had the temperament of a superior.

Since he was qualified to lead the God Transformation 9.0 project, he might have outstanding talent in the academic field.

However, he was not a warrior who spent his days fighting monsters in the depths of the jungle.

Facing a Deity Realm powerhouse like Meng Chao, who was listening to everything, he had almost no ability to detect him and fight back.

After comforting everyone, the lead researcher walked to a corner and reported to the underground laboratory’s real host via the communication device built into his protective suit.

Spirit energy was seemingly seeping into Meng Chao’s ear canal.

His eardrums trembled slightly before he pieced together the extremely tiny sound waves and analyzed the effective fragments.

The lead researcher was slightly surprised. “The situation is horrible. Do we have to continue the experiment?” he asked.

Intermittent voices came from the other end of the communication device. “The earthquake has passed its peak, and the intensity of the spirit magnetic interference is getting lower. It’s just an occasional and short aftershock. There’s nothing to be afraid of.

“The higher-ups are urging us very hard. We have to produce more results and data to prove the value of God Transformation 9.0 in the shortest time possible. That way, we can get more research funds and resources.

“The accident earlier was unfortunate, but it also proved that the survival ability and hunting wisdom of that batch of Demonic Halberd Pigs have far surpassed those of the Nightmarish Beasts.

“After suffering so many high-voltage electric shocks, eating so many armor-piercing bullets, and even having their entire limbs torn off, the physiological parameters of the Demonic Halberd Pigs remained normal. If they were given a certain amount of stimulation, they would still be able to wake up and kill all the living creatures in their field of vision before they die.

“Not to mention, a mutant that is good at hiding its ability has appeared. It’s literally pretending to be a pig when it can become a tiger.

“If it weren’t for this accident, we wouldn’t know how long we would’ve been fooled by this batch of Demonic Halberd Pigs.

“Only after they face real battle and the threat of death can we fully understand the characteristics of these Demonic Halberd Pigs and the potential of God Transformation 9.0.

“After all, intense magnetic interference often occurs in actual combat. What we’re concocting is not a flower in a greenhouse, but an ultimate weapon that can tear apart all enemies in any environment, isn’t it?

“So, hurry up and send our main characters to Test Field No. 1. The guests are all looking forward to it. They can’t wait!”

The chief researcher could only follow orders.

On the east side of Research Room No. 1, no matter how the frenzied Demonic Halberd Pigs rammed into the wall, another wall that was embedded with steel plates slowly stretched out amidst the faint sound of moving machinery. An underground passage that was enough to accommodate battle tanks was revealed.

Tracked transport vehicles slowly drove into Research Room No. 1.

There were dozens of mechanical arms on both sides of the transport vehicles.

They then used their seven hands and eight feet to load the Demonic Halberd Pigs that had been sealed in the cultivation tanks.

Meng Chao’s mind raced.

The person who had just spoken to the lead researcher was obviously the one in charge of the underground laboratory.

They were about to conduct the most important test for the laboratory’s core project.

They would stay there and wait for more workers to be transferred from the sewage treatment system to conduct long-term observation and a comprehensive test on the researchers who might be infected.

They would definitely be exposed.

They might as well take a gamble and go straight to the point.

There were risks.

However, it was also possible to get the answer they wanted in the simplest and most direct way.

“At most, they’ll discover by me, and I’ll turn everything upside down.

“If I really want to kill my way in and out of here, who can stop me?!”

At that moment, an inhuman roar sounded from a corner of the research room.

The researcher, who had unfortunately been corroded by his protective clothing and contaminated with a large amount of monster venom, was already on his last breath like a dried earthworm.

Right then, it seemed as though he had been injected with a powerful and mysterious life force. He was jumping up and down like a live fish that had fallen into a pot of oil.

Earlier, three or four researchers had been taking care of him.

However, at this point, they had flipped him onto the ground.

Through the negative-pressure helmet, one could clearly see that his face had turned from pale white to blood red.

A drop of dark red blood was seeping out of every pore on his face.

His eyes were completely swallowed by the blood threads, and it was impossible to tell the whites of his eyes from his pupils.

The protective clothing that was wrapped around his body had originally been relatively loose.

At this moment, it was also swollen by the flesh and blood on his body, as well as the tumors that were growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was as if they would explode at any moment and spew out even more venom.

“Die!” The researcher let out a muffled roar from the depths of his throat.

There was no longer any trace of humanity in his eyes as he stared at his own kind. The only thing left was an undisguised, incomparably strong appetite.

“Zombie transformation!”

Two words appeared in Meng Chao’s mind.

Most of the various types of gene reagents concocted in this underground laboratory contained Blood Flower spores.

They were not natural spores from wild Blood Flowers. Instead, they were “super spores” that had been screened and optimized by human genes to greatly enhance their ability to spread and stimulate mutations.

Blood Flower spores could greatly increase the combat strength of monsters.

They were also one of the culprits that turned humans into zombies.

Since this researcher had been corroded by the monster’s venom, itwas also possible for him to turn into a zombie.

Even though the laboratory had a plan to deal with the zombie transformation, the researchers could not help but be flustered.

While everyone’s attention was focused on the unlucky guy who had turned into a zombie, Meng Chao once again blocked his breathing, heartbeat, and body temperature.

He lowered his sense of presence to the minimum and turned into a blurry shadow, drilling into a tracked transport vehicle’s undercarriage.

That was because the transport vehicles would only be used on the path in the underground laboratory.

One just needed to consider their weight and stability, not their ability to cross-country, so their chassis was placed extremely low.

The distance between it and the ground was almost the width of two palms.

In addition to the high-power crystal engine, it constantly emitted a deafening roar.

If one was not careful, they would be sucked into the tracks and crushed into meat paste.

Therefore, no one had ever considered the possibility that someone could sneak under the vehicle’s chassis.

Meng Chao was like the hybrid of a tree frog, a gecko, and a bat.

He was firmly attached to the chassis as hesqueezed out the last wisp of air from his lungs.

He compressed his chest to the limit to ensure that no one would be able to see him even if they were standing next to the vehicle.

The zombie-like researcher was finally under control.

He had been injected with God Transformation 9.0 a long time ago, and the strong anesthetic almost could not suppress him. His breathing and heartbeat were growing faster in a cultivation tank. The Demonic Halberd Pig, which might wake up again at any time, had also been loaded.

Then, the driverless tracked vehicles immediately started.

Carrying the Demonic Halberd Pigs and Meng Chao, they passed through the underground highway and descended to a place about two to three hundred meters underground through a large elevator. After a total of five minutes and twenty-four seconds, they arrived at Test Field No. 1.

It was different from Research Room No. 1, which had been artificially excavated and meticulously built.

Test Field No. 1 had seemingly been transformed from a natural karst cave.

The space there was even more spacious.

As far as Meng Chao’s eyes could see, it was half the size of a football field.

The rough unpolished rock walls that were shining with a metallic luster were filled with the traces of nature’s uncanny workmanship, as well as countless ferocious beasts tearing and colliding violently.

It was as if the place endured an endless onslaught of beast hordes day and night.

There were even more similar marks on the ground.

Each time every test ended, the staff would carefully clean up the ground.

Meng Chao could see dense, crisscrossing claw marks, footprints, and collision marks.

There were also traces of blood, bone marrow, and brain matter that had seeped deep into the rock layer and could not be washed away with any chemical reagent.

He took a deep breath, and an extremely stimulating murderous aura rushed into his nostrils and reached his brain.

“This is… the smell of Apocalyptic Beasts!”

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes, and strange shadows appeared before his eyes.

He was certain.

There had once been more than one Apocalyptic Beast there. At the very least, it was a monster that contained the bloodline of an Apocalyptic Beast. It had undergone an incomparably terrifying test there!
