Chapter 93: Chapter 93 Mutated Monkeys_1
Hearing Zhang Ji’s praise, Chen Dalong laughed embarrassedly, “I think it’s okay! I just completed the task on ti, as we agreed before.”
Zhang Ji sighed lightly, “Yeah! If only the military teams could also complete their tasks on ti.”
Chen Dalong felt a sinking feeling in his heart upon hearing the implied aning behind the other’s words, “Captain Zhang, is the situation really bad right now?”
Apart from Zhang Ji, he was probably the most eager person for the cleanup mission to be successfully completed.
Because this was the basis for cooperation with Red Star Tech.
One could imagine that if even the mutated beings near the road could not be cleaned up, how could the other party feel assured to move their branch company over.
If they changed their decision, the escort mission would naturally fall through as well.
“The situation is indeed bad. The current conditions are too abnormal, and it’s not just one area; the entire Donglin Mountain Range is like this.”
“I even contacted the monitoring team in Yang City, and they also found that around the city, in the mountains and forests, the mutated insects have beco extrely aggressive.”
“Now, an expert group has been organized to study this situation, but there are still no conclusions.”
“I called you over this ti to hear your thoughts,” Zhang Ji said directly.
He knew Chen Dalong was a superhuman, and he had just returned from the mountains; he was an eyewitness.
For this matter, he might have his unique insights.
Hearing such a straightforward question from the other side, Chen Dalong hesitated slightly. As he was deciding whether he should answer or not, the voice of the mutated parrot ca through the Bluetooth earpiece, “You can tell him the situation.”
Chen Dalong no longer hesitated but said directly, “As you are aware of my situation, Captain Zhang, I indeed can sense so details that others cannot detect.”
Zhang Ji’s spirits lifted imdiately, his eyes gleaming as he looked at Chen Dalong, waiting for him to continue.
“I can feel that the concentration of spiritual energy between heaven and earth is increasing, and the mutation speed of all beings is also accelerating.”
At this point, Chen Dalong added an extra explanation, “Spiritual energy is the thing that causes beings to mutate.”
“I know that, but what’s the connection between their accelerated mutation speed and becoming extrely aggressive?” Zhang Ji asked.
“The increase in spiritual energy concentration indicates that this part of heaven and earth is undergoing so special change.”
“This has led to the weakened or vanished bottlenecks for these mutated beings. That is to say, they are about to break through to a higher realm.”
“When they are about to break through, they beco very sensitive and aggressive towards any humans that enter their hiding places,” Chen Dalong explained as succinctly as possible what he knew.
After hearing Chen Dalong’s speculation, Zhang Ji’s eyebrows furrowed tightly.
Suddenly, sothing occurred to him and he asked sowhat urgently, “When you talk about breaking through, are you referring to the mutated insects or all mutated beings?”
Chen Dalong couldn’t help but feel impressive that the captain had imdiately thought of this concern.
“Just as you’re worrying, it’s all mutated beings. I estimate that soon there will be a large number of mutated animals that could be on the danger list,” Chen Dalong said, himself sighing lightly.
“Are… are you saying all this is true?” Zhang Ji couldn’t help standing up, unable to stay calm any longer.
“These are all my speculations. However, I’m seventy to eighty percent certain they’re true,” Chen Dalong said with a serious expression.
Although he also wanted to say he was completely certain, he knew that the other party wouldn’t believe such a claim. It was better to understate his confidence, increasing the likelihood of being believed.
Zhang Ji sat back down in his chair and after a long silence, he said, “I’ve got it. I’ll report your speculations to my superiors imdiately.”
“And with the current situation, do you think we should continue our extermination operation?”
This ti, Chen Dalong hardly hesitated before imdiately responding, “We definitely have to continue carrying it out.”
“Oh? Let’s hear your reasoning,” said Zhang Ji.
“The mutated insects have only beco more aggressive, not stronger,” he explained.
“But if we wait for them to complete their evolution and all beco Second Stage mutated insects, killing them will not just cost us a few n,” Chen Dalong imdiately added.
Zhang Ji nodded in agreent. In fact, he also leaned toward continuing the extermination mission, though he had more to consider.
If the developnts unfolded as Chen Dalong speculated, then they should place an even greater emphasis on Red Star Tech.
A large-scale appearance of Second Order mutated beings was imminent, and if humanity wanted to keep up its combat power, military exoskeletons were indispensable.
“I also plan to continue the extermination mission, but compared to before, the difficulty has increased by at least 50%,” he said.
“The military side is still manageable, with casualty rates still within an acceptable range, but the security companies are starting to struggle. I’ll mobilize them again and increase the financial incentives.”
“But that alone is not enough. There are so tricky issues that require sufficiently strong individuals to resolve,” Zhang Ji remarked.
Chen Dalong clearly understood the implied aning in the other’s words and imdiately patted his chest, asserting, “Captain Zhang, rest assured, no matter what difficulties you face on your end, as long as the reward is good enough, I’ll rise to the challenge.”
Zhang Ji’s mouth twitched involuntarily with amusent. It was the first ti he had seen soone so nobly negotiate about money.
“Fine, I won’t beat around the bush. Take a look at this. How many military rits do you need to take action?” Zhang Ji handed over a file he had just received to Chen Dalong.
Chen Dalong imdiately took it, but after a glance, a puzzled look appeared on his face.
“A group of mutated monkeys, although there are over a hundred of them, there are no Second Stagers! Can’t the military handle them?” Chen Dalong asked, puzzled.
Zhang Ji sighed, “No, they can’t handle them. These mutated monkeys are too clever; they never get close to our troops, always staying at least fifty to sixty ters away.”
“Just look at the environnt of Donglin Mountain Range. How can we shoot at them from such a distance, especially when they’re hidden among the trees, fully camouflaged by the foliage?”
“They run too fast, and our soldiers can’t keep up with them,” said Zhang Ji.
Chen Dalong nodded, understanding, yet his doubts persisted as he then asked, “Then how are those mutated monkeys attacking from fifty to sixty ters away?”
“Stones,” Zhang Ji rubbed his forehead and said. “Those mutated monkeys are incredibly strong. They throw stones the size of waterlons, weighing three to four tens of pounds each.”
“The Seventh Squad, which went to besiege the mutant monkey group, has already suffered five broken arms, two broken ribs, and one death by blunt force,” he lanted.
Listening, Chen Dalong was sowhat astounded, able only to say that the combat power of mutated beings that learned to use tools was frighteningly amplified.
