In the workshop, soone could no longer contain their curiosity and was about to approach for a closer look when a soldier beside them raised his weapon and aid it at their head without a word. With the sergeant’s reprimand, those people had to suppress their increasingly intense curiosity.
About a minute passed, and the space behind the glass beca a white blur. Suddenly, a howl sounded through, surprisingly piercing the enclosed environnt and reaching everyone’s ears clearly!
Perhaps there were other cryptic ssages mixed with the howling; the scientists in white coats couldn’t help but cheer.
"Is this... success?"
"Should we take another look?"
They could no longer see what was happening behind the glass, but after the first roar from the zombie, the howls and roars continued faintly in rapid succession!
The soldiers also started to get nervous, taking a step forward in unison, unlocking their laser weapons and aiming them at the glass in front of them, preparing for any unforeseen incidents!
The light dots flickered at the muzzle tip, and so could already sll the volatile high temperature of the laser itself!
The soldiers didn’t understand the purpose of this experint, but they could hear that the creature behind the glass seed to be in great pain. Otherwise, why would it make such a sound?
This was a wail!
What ans could make a zombie produce such a wail?
The howling and wailing inside continued, the tones becoming more violent with ti and slowly growing sharper. A little more than two minutes later, they finally saw sothing else behind the glass!
It was a mass of black-yellow liquid!
No, it wasn’t!
It was clearly a thick "batter"!
Hiss~
Soone couldn’t help but gasp; they knew what the creature behind the glass was!
It was a genuine Level 8 zombie!
Its body was being decomposed by the mist!
And this grotesquely sticky dark yellow "batter" was the inorganic matter decomposed from its body!
The inorganic matter kept piling up on the platform behind the glass, increasingly filling it up, drowning the platform. The howling from within started to weaken, gradually disappearing, yet the nauseating inorganic matter continued to rise!
Finally, when the flesh and blood decomposed from the Level 8 zombie’s body filled the platform to a height of four or five ters, it stopped increasing.
[Experint concluded...]
Phew~
The chanical voice delivered the cold words, and people breathed a sigh of relief, yet the atmosphere wasn’t celebratory. Only a few ordinary people had faces flushed with excitent.
"Succeeded... truly succeeded!"
"The Divine Rain Project is feasible! The apocalypse is about to end!" Two ordinary people couldn’t hold back their joy, and they started clapping with enthusiasm, but sensed the strange atmosphere in the next second and quickly ceased their cheering.
No one paid them any mind, and the sergeant did not relax his guard either. Not until confirming nothing abnormal was happening behind the glass did the sergeant wave a hand and say, "Go in, let’s confirm the result."
"Yes!" The soldiers responded in unison.
Then they headed toward the safety passage at the back, walking for about three to four minutes. Following the sergeant’s orders, a soldier jogged to the front of the group and dexterously opened a small door at the end of the passage.
Hiss~
Thick white smoke billowed out from behind the door, carrying an extrely pungent and strange sll, prompting many to hurriedly cover their noses. The sergeant followed closely behind, frowning as he caught wind of the sll. He looked down into the platform below, now completely subrged in an ocean of inorganic matter, with large plus of white smoke rising from it, resembling the scene of steam rising when a stead bun is freshly opened.
Each person’s face bore an expression of shock. The Level 8 zombie had been starving for a while, yet without execution, its size was only slightly larger than that of an average person. Who would have thought it would decompose into so much material!
"It seems the experint was successful," the sergeant murmured in a daze.
But little did anyone know, five peculiar individuals were boldly entering the surface building above them.
"Halt! Who are you?" A soldier guarding the entrance noticed the approach under the dim lights and raised their laser weapons with vigilance, shouting in anger.
The intruders did not speak, advancing directly. Their footsteps, like a harbinger of death, issued a cold warning to those present!
"Stop, three!"
The soldiers sensed that sothing was wrong, and the lead soldier imdiately began to count!
"Two!"
"One!"
"Open fire!"
The soldiers’ warnings did not deter the intruders from moving forward. Among the five were n and won: a middle-aged man, an alluring woman, an elderly man in his seventies, a teenager, and a child, forming a bizarre combination.
They seed oblivious to the laser weapons aid at them, leisurely approaching. When they were still a dozen ters from the guarding soldiers, the countdown by the leading soldier ended, and without hesitation, he ordered to open fire, with the surrounding soldiers launching a fierce barrage!
The sowhat blinding particle beams illuminated the darkness. The mysterious five did not dodge or evade, bearing the full brunt of the burning laser blasts!
Boom!
Upon contact with their bodies, the lasers erupted into a brilliant flare. The middle-aged man was pushed back several steps by the strong impact but remained unhurt, simply gazing down at his laser-scorched clothing, seemingly pondering.
The guard soldiers were utterly shocked at this scene!
"Not good! Quickly request backup!"
Though the five looked sowhat disheveled after the round of shooting, the battle-hardened soldiers, with their wealth of combat experience, imdiately realized their attacks had inflicted no real harm on the opponents, reacting swiftly.
These guys were beyond what they could handle!
Just as the leading soldier shouted those words, the situation turned dire. The peculiar group of five moved nimbly, and in the next second, the soldiers heard a "boom," indicating several overhead searchlights had been struck and shattered!
With the lights out, the soldiers were plunged into darkness. Before they could adjust, a pained, muffled sound of "ugh...uh" ca from the mouth of the lead soldier.
The remaining soldiers sensed sothing amiss and hurriedly looked over. The middle-aged man had sohow appeared behind their lead soldier, his hand transford into a bone-white spike, effortlessly piercing the soldier’s body.
Nobody knew what agony he was undergoing, as he couldn’t even muster a scream, only producing a suffocated, stifled breath.
Then with a "squelch" sound, the middle-aged man withdrew his right hand, now a bone spike, from the soldier, with a freshly beating heart still attached to its tip!
The expression on the middle-aged man’s face was bizarre after killing the soldier. The next second, his mouth tore wide open, and he swallowed the heart whole, an ecstatic look crossing his face!
