Chapter 867: Modified Warrior (1)
There were eight members of the peripheral organization, five men and three women. They looked like they had undergone specialized combat training. Even the three women in singlets had very well-proportioned muscles. They had short hair and looked very capable.
And after seeing Xiong Yu, the eight peripheral members heaved a sigh of relief.
“Captain Xiong, you’re finally here. If you were any later, those guys might have moved away,” The woman in the lead said.
Xiong Yu glanced at his watch. “Dai Yun, time is tight. Lead the way.” “Understood.”
Dai Yun, the leader of the peripheral organization, immediately walked in front. Her waist and hips were very good, showing off her figure. However, the shape of her face was a little long, but overall, she gave off a very trustworthy feeling.
The rest of the Transcendence team knew her. They were even chatting with each other on the way into the factory. However, when they arrived at the low mountain range behind the factory, everyone became vigilant.
“They’re in a cave in the mountains. We lost ten members to determine their location, and these people were very arrogant. After knowing that they were targeted, they didn’t leave immediately. Instead, they held some employees of the factory hostage. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have informed the captain and let you take action.”
Dai Yun quickly explained the situation.
Xiong Yu asked, “Are you sure they’re evil cultists?”
Dai Yun shook her head. “It’s hard to say. Captain, you also know that if you don’t have close contact with the evil cultists, or if they accidentally expose themselves, it’s very difficult to distinguish their identities. These people are secretive and ruthless. They’re simply inhumane. That’s why I determined that they might be members of the evil cult.”
A member couldn’t help but say, “Could it be a group of thugs? Recently, a group of robbers and thugs appeared in Qinghe City and have yet to be caught.”
Xiong Yu quickly said, “We can’t rule out this situation. Are there photos of them or surveillance cameras?”
“They were very cautious. All the surveillance cameras were removed, and the original photos were in the hands of the missing peripheral members. Before they could be transferred out, they were gone,” Dai Yun said.
Xiong Yu did not ask about anything else. The group followed a tree-lined path in the low mountain range and walked towards the cave. When they passed by an open area, he took out an instrument and scanned Shen Ping and the others for a while. He even instructed Shen Ping and the others to smear some green liquid on their bodies.
“It’s an optical invisibility fluid. It can hide us for a short time. Even an infrared detector won’t be able to find us.”
A member behind Shen Ping said in a low voice, “These things are not cheap to make. Only the captain can apply for a quota.”
The terrain became complicated in the open area. There were lush weeds and bushes everywhere. They carefully passed through this area and arrived outside the cave.
“Little Qu.”
The captain looked at the member who had just explained to Shen Ping.
Qu Min grinned. “Watch me.”
He took out a handful of black gadgets. After these gadgets landed, they instantly turned into black spiders. There were dozens of them, and they quickly rushed into the cave. Everyone immediately looked at the screen on Qu Min’s arm.
The image of the cave was already displayed. The cave was very deep, and it meandered into the depths. However, the black spider was extremely fast. In a short while, it walked for more than a hundred meters and arrived at a relatively spacious cave hall.
“It’s them! It’s the missing people!”
Through the black spider, Dai Yun saw the corpses piled up in the hall. Her eyes were red, and her voice came out from between her teeth.
“Let’s go in.”
After saying that, Xiong Yu and the others immediately entered the cave. When they went to the cave hall, they didn’t see the gang. They began to examine the corpses of the peripheral members. Usually, if the corpses were infected by the virus’ energy carrier, their blood would show an abnormal green color.
Just as a girl called Mei’er stepped forward to draw blood, Shen Ping quickly pulled her back and reminded her, “Don’t touch these corpses.”
“What’s wrong?” Xiong Yu asked and added, “Qu Min’s spider had already checked just now. It was indeed dead, and there was nothing else unusual.”
Shen Ping narrowed his eyes and said calmly, “Back off, everyone back off. Captain, what should we do to deal with the evil cultists?”
Xiong Yu did not question further. Instead, he ordered everyone to quickly retreat. He said, “The viral energy carrier of the evil cultists is very tenacious. It will make the evil cultists feel no pain. The only way to kill them is to destroy their heads.”
Bang. He shot one of the bodies in the head. As if a stone had caused a thousand ripples, the corpses of ten peripheral organization members instantly bounced up. The skin of each corpse became bloated and distorted at a speed visible to the naked eye. They piled up together, forming a mountain of flesh.
Xiong Yu’s expression changed drastically. “Oh no, it’s a super infected body!”
“Get out of here!”
“Retreat, retreat, retreat!”
Exclamations of varying sizes rose and fell in the hall. Including Dai Yun and the other members of the peripheral organization, they turned around and fled in fear. Xiong Yu also grabbed Shen Ping and ran crazily towards the passageway that they had just entered.
When they ran out, they heard an explosion behind them. They continued to run. After returning to the factory, Xiong Yu and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
“I didn’t expect it to be a super-infected body.”
Dai Yun patted her chest with lingering fear. Fear appeared on the faces of the others.
Shen Ping couldn’t help but ask, “Captain, what is a super infectious body?”
Xiong Yu said solemnly, “The Super Infected Body carries a stronger viral energy carrier. This viral carrier is only possessed by the heretics. Most of the time, we encounter evil cultists. The evil cultists are divided into five levels. Above the evil cultists are the heretics. Even the lowest-level heretics are very powerful. They have already mastered the viral energy and can control themselves to erupt with terrifying inhuman strength..”
