Chapter 68: EP9: Source of Arnold Power! TES Squad!


    "For a while, UWG (United World Government) had no solution to this problem. Until, fourteen peoples got selected to be part of a secret squad called TES squad, codename Squad 0. They were sent in a dangerous ind to undergo a secret training, under the order of the uppermost-echelon.


    The upper-most-echelon is known to the world as the council of Supremes"


    The moment Arnold mentioned the Council of supreme, an ancient expression took ce on Feng''s previous serious face.


    The serious Feng became more serious!


    Drac operated his mind and activated the voice recorded, installed in his mechanical brain. Because information rted to the Supreme was scarce. His mechanical eyes glowed with a dark glint.


    Feng and Drac, both knew about the Council of Supreme. Everyone in this world did. The five peoples with the most powerful Mecha in the entire world were none other than the members of the Council of Supremes. They were also the founder or somehow rted to the founders of the United World Government!


    Arnold was impressed by himself after seeing their expression. ''What a great storyteller I am'' Arnold thought pleased by himself, as he exposed his glorious past in the best way possible(Covering up all the sad part).


    He continued,


    "Of course, each of the members were carefully chosen after going through a dozen of screening and by the rmendation of those in the upper echelons. At least a missionpetition rate of 90%+ and hidden quirks was needed. Along with that, a record clear of any criminal activities. I was lucky enough to be one out of those fourteen people. During the training, we faced life and death situations. But all of us managed to make it out alive.


    "Together, we faced life and death situations. So, a special kind of bond was developed between us. At the end of the training, we found out that we needed to undergo a surgery to obtain a power unknown to man. A surgery that will increase our strength beyond the human norm. A scientist, someone whose name I cannot say, created this human modification method.


    "Undergoing bodily modification was also the most important and required qualification to join the squad.


    "After all, the fourteen of us were selected for the sole purpose ofpleting deadly and impossible toplete mission.


    "Hence, the upper-echelon believed that the power obtained after bodily modification will be the best solution to face off against the SSS-level missions.


    "The fourteen of us naturally underwent the human modification surgery. As one less member will cause the chances of death to increase, whilepleting SSS-level mission. No one wanted to betray their own brother and sister in life and death.


    "I don''t know whether our gene got mixed with the genes of unknown animals or aliens. But I do know, that after the surgery each of us gained a single unique ability.


    "The ability is also the reason for my inhumane strength. The ability I obtained after modification increases my physical capabilities and my senses by dozens of times, each time I trigger it. But it has a time limit. This ability is ssified as Overload. Using this ability, I can at least destroy a Gray-sheen Flesh zombie.


    Arnold finished exining the reason to his inhumane strength, Arnold stood still after reminiscing about his past, while gazing at the silver moon.


    He added thest line to impress the youngsters and prove his worth. He wanted Feng Mei to know that in the apocalypse he won''t only be carrying burdens on his back to a safe-zone.


    "No wonder why you epted to apany us to the mingo Mall without flinching even once. You had a trump card!" The serious Feng said to Arnold. He nodded his head, acting like a detective.


    "Though, your past sounds like a tale right out of fiction." The serious Feng was captivated by Arnold. He loved Arnold story!


    Feng nature of being a hardcore Otaku didn''t change. Arnold past sounded like a sci-fi Hollywood movie!


    "Haha, isn''t it. But this world has also changed to an apocalyptic world, something found in movies" Arnold replied, feeling proud of his past.


    Drac standing near them was more curious about the words Squad 0 and TES. His nature was that of a curious child, listing after knowledge. He wanted to rify his knowledge rted to the history. And Arnold was the very person that can provide him with this information!


    After interacting with Arnold various times, Drac had calcted that Arnold is a kid-con. Drac was a robot but his robotic body looked no different than a 12-year-old Italian kid!


    He knew what he needed to do to obtain knowledge about the TES squad from Arnold.


    Drac acted cute and excitedly shook Arnold''s wrist.


    "Mister Arnold, can you please disclose a tiny bit. I really mean a tiny bit of information about the ''TES'' squad" Drac said, looking at Arnold with his curious and innocent ck eyes~


    The serious Feng knew what Drac was doing. He let him do it because he also was curious about the TES squad.


    Arnold already knows that Drac is a robot. But being a kid-con caused Arnold to fell for the cute frontal assault of Drac!


    "Sure, Let''s see... Hmm..." Arnold stammered like a hyperventting perverted middle-aged man and said in a way that will hype the two listeners.


    "The fourteen of us were put together in a squad. Once again, I was lucky; lucky enough to be chosen as the leader of the squad.


    "A squad created toplete SSS-level mission was finally established.


    "The special squad was named as Squad 0 also called TES. TES full forms mean Terrorist Extermination Squad!. The member of my squad was referred to as the Modified humans, by the higher-ups.


    "Furthermore, all information about us was made confidential. Only essible by members of upper-echelons and the upper-most echelon.


    "Hence, we remain unknown to the world. No one knows that there fourteen heroic souls. We ced our lives on the line to fight against the terrorists every day.


    "My squad, true to its name was a monster. Completing one mission after another. Wepleted all the impossible missions. In the end, we terminated all S-ranked and A-ranked terrorist organizations. After that, the TES squad got disbanded under the order of the higher-ups. Since the very reason for the creation of the TES squad had ended."


    Arnold exined some basic information rted to Squad 0 and satisfied Drac''s and Feng Mei curiosity.


    ~Arnold made sure to omit all the sad parts~


    Arnold wasn''t stupid. He exposed confidential information to Feng Mei and Drac because he won''t be met with any consequences.


    The world was in an unknown condition and mostly devasted. There were green, gray, and red zone.


    The UNG would not know that he disclosed this information to Feng Mei. Even if they knew, what could they do? It''s not like they will harm Arnold, who has been selflessly providing the UWG with his service.
