Chapter 427: Superweapon Blocked!
About 50 kilometers away from the newly built city, arge hole suddenly appeared.
Yes, it''s that kind of copsed hole. Soon after, arge number of Ghost n emerged from the hole. A preliminary estimate indicated that there were at least millions of them!
When Su Chen discovered these Ghost n on the map, the corner of his mouth twitched. Did the System calcte this?
The distance of 50 kilometers wasn''t far. As long as the Ghost n sent some Soldiers to explore the surroundings, they would quickly discover this side''s city. This meant that Su Chen needed to protect the people of Yan Yun Star from these Ghost n within seven days.
"TanyaJu Ling, have the Soldiers conduct the first wave of harassment in batches, and start building the defense system. I don''t want to see a single person killed by the Ghost n, understood?"
"Yes, Commander."
After they left, Su Chen stared at therge hole, wondering how this had happened.
He knew that the Ghost n had always lived underground, but that was tens of kilometers deep underground. If the Ghost n could easily create a path to the surface, they wouldn''t have hidden underground for so long.
What frustrated Su Chen the most was that the Ghost n appeared precisely around his Base. Wasn''t this forcing his hand?
"Should I use a Superweapon for some fun?" The idea popped into Su Chen''s mind and lingered.
As the saying goes, the best offense is a good defense. Since the Ghost n didn''t know about his Base yet, he could strike first, potentially wiping out arge portion of the Ghost n. If lucky, he might even annihte the entire enemy force.
"Let''s not send the Soldiers out just yet. I''ll give them a special gift first." Su Chen''s lips curled upwards.
ording to Su Chen''s thinking, using a nuclear bomb would be the most straightforward, or perhaps Thunderstorm. But then he considered something. The number of Soldiers he had here was too small; they were prime material. Turning them into Beastmen might be an even better idea.
Superweapon gene mutation, prepare for use!
In that instant, the powerful Ghost n experts located 50 kilometers away suddenly felt a sense of foreboding, as if a dangerous event was about to ur.
"Ghost Master, I have a bad feeling, as if we''re about to face danger soon," an eighth-order Ghost n said to an elderly Ghost n sitting in a chair.
The elderly Ghost n had a white beard, sagging skin like tree bark, full of crevices. His half-opened eyes seemed tired.
"Eighth-order experts can have a sort of premonition about their danger. If your feeling isn''t mistaken, we should have attracted attention," said the elderly Ghost Master.
The eighth-order Ghost n''s face changed. "Ghost Master, should we disperse immediately? Gathering like this, won''t we be vulnerable to the powerful weapons of the humans?"
As an eighth-order Ghost n, he was confident in his own strength. He could withstand evenrge weapons. But his subordinates were different.
They hadn''te to the surface easily; they didn''t want heavy casualties as soon as they emerged. It didn''t align with their purpose.
Just as the eighth-order Ghost n was about to say something, a strong crisis emerged. At the same time, he sensed a strange sound around him, a hissing...
"Exchange five years of my life for peak power once!"
Hearing this, the eighth-order Ghost n widened his eyes. "Ghost Master, your body can''t handle it anymore. You can''t keep consuming your life!"
"Hehe, this old bones can still hold up. I can feel that this power seems to cause some change in our bodies. It must be stopped."
With that, the elderly Ghost Master, who had been on the brink of death, suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood. Then, an invisible film spread out from him, covering all the surrounding Ghost n, with him at the center.
The hissing sound persisted, and some Ghost n emitted cries of pain. Many protrusions appeared on his body, as if something was about to burst out from within him.
St!
With a strange sound, this Ghost n''s body underwent a massive transformation, turning into... Beastmen!
Not just one Ghost n, but many were transforming into Beastmen. The gene mutation was so powerful that it forced them to be Beastmen, regardless of their original race.
The difference was that Beastmen born from the bodies of Ghost n had even stronger physiques.
In the end, the effect of the gene mutator ended, but not all of the Ghost n had be Beastmen. Only less than a quarter had truly transformed!
"Huh, it actually managed to resist the power of the gene mutationt?" Su Chen was somewhat surprised.
He thought that most of the Ghost n on the other side would be Beastmen when he unleashed this move, but he miscalcted.
The source of this was the elderly Ghost Master, an individual who could use such powerful power. It was hard to believe.
"Can the power of the gene mutation be countered too?" Su Chen asked the System.
"Any power has its countermeasures. The power of the gene mutation isn''t something out of thin air. If it encounters the same type of power, it can be countered as well," exined the System.
Su Chen nodded. He had several Superweapons at his disposal. Since the gene mutation failed, he had others. But before that, the Beastmen had to be put to good use. Letting them go to waste would be a shame.
"Right, Beastmen can apparently use Burst cultivation. They can be used as disposable Weapons."
These Beastmen had been transformed by the gene mutation. In terms of true strength, they couldn''tpare to the Beastmen produced by his Base, but Su Chen wasn''t concerned.
Reducing the number of Ghost n Soldiers as much as possible was worth even sacrificing all of the Beastmen.
Under Su Chen''smand, all the Beastmen instantly underwent Burst cultivation, killing many Ghost n who hadn''t yet recovered their senses. The Ghost n''s army was instantly thrown into chaos.
"What''s going on? What are those things?" An eighth-order Ghost n appeared and shouted loudly.
"King, those guys used to be ourrades, but it seems like they''ve lost their memories and are attacking us." A Ghost n reported.
The eighth-order Ghost n surveyed the scene. There were still many big figures, and Ghost n were dying every second.
The eighth-order Ghost n''s expression grew dark. "Kill them all!"
As the king of these Ghost n, he knew very well that if he didn''t go all out to kill them, even more Ghost n would die.
As the Beastmen acted, Su Chen was considering which Superweapon to use next. But at that moment, the System''s voice suddenly sounded, "Inform the master that for the first-tier mission, the Superweapon can only be used once. If used a second time, the mission will be considered a failure."
Su Chen: "???" (To be continued...)
