182 Extreme Cold
“By the way, Boss, two Mutated cuttlefish ran away from Branch One last night…”
Henry reported.
“I know this.”
“The virus is mutating and evolving is faster than we predicted. I didn’t expect it to produce such powerful results, this quickly.
“If they do escape, so be it. As long as they don’t threaten the wellbeing of the company, let them be.
“Progress on the virus inhibitor is going pretty good. It won’t take much longer…”
The Boss smiled and stopped the conversation.
‘Branch Four is going to disable viruses all around the globe soon.’
When the inhibitor is mass-produced, it would be instrumental in aiding their company to rule the world and establish a new order.
“Alright, I’m going back to the headquarters.
“Do your best to complete your mission.”
The middle-aged man maneuvered his electric wheelchair and walked toward the door of the conference room.
Henry quickly picked up the syringe and injected the sensor into his vein.
The sensor followed the vein to the heart.
Henry felt his heart skip a beat. The sensor should have been activated.
Henry heaved a sigh of relief.
If he didn’t quickly activate it, he might be torn apart by these two.
“We’ll be colleagues from now on,
“I hope you can assist me in completing my mission.”
Henry reached out his hand to the two red-eyed zombies.
The two red-eyed zombies glanced at Henry coldly, but didn’t respond.
Henry’s face twitched.
These were very moody associates.
“Let’s go and get to work!”
Henry called out to them.
Although the two red-eyed zombies were not much for conversation, they still obediently followed him because of the bomb in their heads…
On the surface of the sea some distance away from Eastlake Island, Sugar was making its way home.
Tang Tang had been too engrossed in the battle just now, which led to her heading northeast for more than half an hour.
Fortunately, the autopilot was proficient at avoiding collisions.
It would probably take some time before they would get home.
Wang Ran was lying on the deck, while Lin Momo was giving him a gentle massage.
Just now, Lin Momo had successfully advanced.
Lin Momo had successfully gained red pupils before Su Xiaoyu did.
Lin Momo, who already had a childlike face, looked even cuter with her red pupils.
In terms of strength, she had also improved a lot, and she could now withstand half of Wang Ran’s strength.
All of a sudden, Lin Momo’s hand exerted force and almost crushed Wang Ran…
“F*ck… Momo, what’s going on?”
Wang Ran only recovered after a while.
“I’m sorry, Master.” Lin Momo stuck out her tongue. She had indeed used too much force.
“A powerful mutant creature is approaching us at high speed!
“It’s not much weaker than me…” Lin Momo said with a frown.
This time, she felt a legitimate threat.
“You’ve just only advanced…”
Wang Ran frowned.
Lin Momo was now a red-eyed Mutated Zombie. She could set off an army of zombies and destroy a city in minutes.
If it was not much weaker than Momo…
The surface of the sea was still calm, with only a few small waves to tell of its motions.
Beneath the sea…
A massive object was rapidly approaching the Sugar.
It was a giant cuttlefish that was as big as the Sugar.
It had several times the tentacles of regular cuttlefish, and it exuded a dangerous aura.
Last night, the mutated cuttlefish had eaten all the other mutated creatures in the laboratory and escaped with another one of its kind.
Along the way, it had eaten all kinds of marine creatures, but none of them tasted like that again.
Only food carrying the virus could attract its attention.
On the vast sea, the Sugar stood out like a treasure chest and became the target of the mutated cuttlefish.
Of course, what attracted it was the heavy stench of the virus on the ship.
Very quickly, the mutated cuttlefish arrived right below the Sugar.
Its tentacles slowly climbed up the ship…
Wang Ran and his two followers came to the deck.
“That thing is right below us.
“As for whether it’s a fish or a squid, it’s hard to say.
“I’m not worried about how powerful it is. I’m only worried that it would damage our ship.
“We’re a ways off. I don’t want to have to swim back by myself.”
Wang Ran sighed.
“Uncle, who cares? Let’s go down and kill it!”
Tang Tang raised her axe energetically.
She had yet to experience a battle at sea.
“Don’t be naïve. It’s wishful thinking for you to even swing that thing with half your strength underwater.
Wang Ran reminded her.
The battle with the mutated cuttlefish last night had given Wang Ran a lot of valuable experience.
His strength was restricted, his movements were restricted
If possible, Wang Ran still hoped to end the battle on the deck.
“Master, I’ll try to communicate with it.”
Lin Momo walked to the edge of the deck and focused on sending a message to the sea.
Not long after, Lin Momo’s forehead began to sweat.
“Master, it has a large brain. It might be an animal like a squid.
“But, it’s in a frenzied state right now, and there’s no way to communicate normally.
“Well, it seems to want to eat us,” Lin Momo said, panting.
“Eat us?
“Everyone, move closer to the edge of the deck and attract its attention. Don’t let it damage the hull,” Wang Ran immediately ordered them.
The three of them split up at the edge of the ship’s bow.
The bait immediately worked.
Other than the four tentacles that were wrapped around the hull, the other tentacles all appeared at the bow of the ship.
The tips of these tentacles opened up like flower petals, revealing the sharp teeth inside, and they were aimed at Wang Ran and the other two.
“This thing is a little disgusting…”
Wang Ran sighed.
It was also a tentacle-type monster, but it was much more disgusting than the mutated squid last night.
“Uncle, it’s phase one of a tentacle-type boss. Let’s just cut off all its tentacles!”
Tang Tang shared her experience of fighting Helya in World of Warcraft.
As soon as he finished speaking, a tentacle streaked at Tang Tang.
Tang Tang nimbly dodged the attack.
The tentacle directly sunk into the deck. It was dangerous and superhumanly powerful.
However, Tang Tang was a rank-five Awakened. She quickly raised her axe and hacked at it.
Because the tentacle was embedded in the deck, it couldn’t break free for a while and was cut clean by Tang Tang!
The creature beneath the water seemed to be in great pain and was enraged!
More than a dozen tentacles began to attack the three of them at the same time.
Tang Tang had her axe, so she was able to fight back and forth with the tentacles.
Lin Momo fared worse.
She didn’t have sharp fangs or claws, so she was in a very sorry state when she encountered this tentacle monster.
Soon, one tentacle wrapped around Lin Momo’s arm, while the other tentacle opened its bloody mouth at Lin Momo…
