World-saving Plan: The Only Savior-Chapter 632 - 481: The Sneak-Attacking Monster (Two in One)
Chapter 632: Chapter 481: The Sneak-Attacking Monster (Two in One)
Hader Peda was a captain of the Hurricane Team.
In such a group of elite soldiers, being able to serve as a captain sufficiently demonstrated his outstanding abilities.
Even to say, if there were projects similar to a Super Soldier transformation program in the future, he would likely be among the first batch of elites to undergo the transformation.
However, the man who once prided himself as the future savior, after visiting that mysterious island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean more than half a month ago, became like someone who had suffered a blow, never again displaying his previous pride and complacency.
Hader would never forget everything that happened that night.
The swarming insect horde that covered the sky, the monstrous creatures several dozen meters tall, and the man who easily shattered all of it.
This insignificance, this powerlessness, and that shock completely crushed what was left of his former pride.
As a survivor of that battle, like many of his comrades, Hader started a more rigorous training regiment, going about it as if his life depended on it.
But they knew that no matter how much they trained, they were just mortals after all.
Mere training would never enable them to become a Transcendent, let alone rival that man who with a wave of his hand could suppress giant beasts and destroy tens of thousands from the Insect Race.
Despite this, Hader did not lose hope because shortly after his return, he heard some news.
The deputy director of the Hurricane Bureau, who was investigating the Hamby Wildlife Park—Strange Bruno—had gone missing!
Before disappearing, he sent a set of research notes to the headquarters, which he clearly found somewhere.
Although he did not manage to provide any other detailed explanations, the content of these notes was eye-catching, pertaining to research on biological gene modification!
Those Mutant Beasts were clearly related to this stuff!
It’s just a pity that Strange, who discovered all of this, vanished so mysteriously.
Along with him disappeared dozens of members of the Hurricane Team.
The loss was not small, and it even put Lune under tremendous pressure for a while.
However, the researchers at the Hurricane Bureau Research Institute were unusually excited; they studied the notes.
Eventually, they were astonished to discover that the experiments and plans recorded in these notes, although some were beyond their understanding, could be used for simulated research.
In the end, a plan for human gene modification emerged, and they intended to use this set of notes to research their own gene modification potion.
"Since we don’t have any Transcendents, then we will create our own!"
These were the words Lune said at the time, which Hader remembered vividly.
For this reason, Hader did not feel hopeless.
As a captain of the Hurricane Team, if the gene modification potion was successfully developed in the future, he would definitely get his share.
But for now, before becoming true Super Soldiers, they must rely on mortal strength to combat those monsters.
Today, Hader received such a task.
The location of the mission was the Home Apartments in the Hatbrim District.
It was a very old apartment block, and as someone who grew up in the New York City Hatbrim District, Hader had even seen it when he was a child.
There used to be rumors of an evil spirit in that apartment, which then mysteriously disappeared, and they suspected that two of the residents were connected to it.
One of them was Aaron Griffin, who had disappeared, and the other was Beelu Bryan, who was currently under surveillance by the Hurricane Bureau.
When Hader learned that monsters had reappeared in the Home Apartments, as the ace squad of the Hurricane Bureau, he immediately led his team to the scene.
They employed a double-sided encirclement for the assault: the fourth squad entered from the bottom of the building, while the fifth squad, which Hader led, arrived by helicopter from the rooftop.
In the corridors, they encountered an attack by monsters.
The monsters seemed to be drawn to the sound, swarming in from all directions.
They had tall bodies, slender limbs, ferocious teeth, muscle tissues raw as if flayed, and a pair of blood-red, disturbing eyes.
In general, the aspect of these monsters was somewhat human-like, only more grotesque.
Hader even noticed that some creatures appeared to be draped in some kind of fabric.
The filthy, ragged cloth was entirely unsuitable for their size.
Somehow, he always had this strange feeling that he had seen those fabrics somewhere before.
But before he had too much time to think, he and his men were ambushed by the monsters.
Hader never expected that these creatures could possess such high Intelligence.
They partially concealed a resident’s door, and when he and his men passed by, they suddenly flung it open and charged out, swiftly killing Gary.
They also summoned a large number of their companions to besiege them.
The monsters would stealthily hide behind some cover, peeking out with half of their heads to observe their status.
As soon as they showed any sign of changing magazines, the creatures would immediately rush out to attack.
The members of the fifth squad had to be constantly vigilant of their backs because those monsters were often hiding in some part of the stairwell, sticking out half a head to observe them.
If they showed any weakness, they would suffer a fatal blow.
Even with the best Bullet-Proof Vests, they couldn’t withstand the creatures’ claw attacks, which were capable of ripping them open with a single strike.
