In the pitch-black night, the moon hangs high in the starry sky, illuminating the city on the ground and the HeLa cells that parasitize the city center.

It's been almost a day since it arrived in this city, and the changes in HeLa cells in such a short time are truly remarkable.

It came as just a dog, but now it has the power to control the entire city. However, it seems that the people are being eaten up by HeLa cells.

[HeLa Cell]'s thoughts were wandering, while it continued to use its tentacles to search for the remaining people in the city. But for some reason, it seemed that the remaining people had vanished into thin air in an instant and could not be found no matter what.

Suddenly, one of the tentacles made a discovery.

The tentacles shot out like a hunting snake, striking the target instantly.

After the other side stopped moving, the HeLa cells wrapped its tentacles around it and lifted it up to observe it. They discovered that the thing was not a living organism, but a machine that looked like a dog.

[HeLa cells] I've never seen anything so strange before. It's clearly a machine, but it walks on its feet like a living organism.

However, HeLa cells didn't think too much about it and easily crushed the mechanical dog to pieces.

...

Meanwhile, at a military base somewhere, the high-ranking officers watched the last video footage transmitted by the robotic reconnaissance dog, their brows furrowed.

One of the officers, with a stubble beard, said in a slightly trembling voice:

"It's actually true! City C really has been invaded by a 'mutant'!"

Another middle-aged officer, with one hand on his forehead, spoke in a solemn tone.

"The intelligence has been confirmed; City C has indeed been invaded by alien species."

I suggest using [Thunderstorm] to deal with it directly. After all, based on the current intelligence, this 'mutant' has at least the strength to 'destroy a city', and may even be approaching the level of 'transcendent'.

It's best to deal with it as soon as possible.

But this was quickly refuted by another officer.

"What about the city's residents?! I don't believe that the entire city could have been evacuated in such a short time!"

"It was said by a younger-looking officer, his tone tinged with mild anger."

The middle-aged officer closed his eyes and sighed softly.

"Officer Sun, you can see for yourself."

The middle-aged military officer tossed out a document.

"This is the current intelligence on this city."

Officer Sun was somewhat puzzled, but he still took it and started to look at it. However, after only two glances, his expression froze, and was then replaced by disbelief and anger.

“City C…1 million people…5,000 people evacuated…number of survivors in the city…”

Officer Sun swallowed hard, and after several seconds he managed to choke out the last sentence:

"The number of survivors in the city is currently 0!"

"The attack by this 'alien' was too sudden. We didn't even find out how it got in before it started massacring the people in the city. Although the local government did its best to evacuate the people, it only managed to save 5,000 people."

The middle-aged officer spoke with a stern face, while the officer surnamed Sun's face was contorted with anger.

"Smack!!"

Officer Sun slammed his hand on the table, his voice filled with anger.

"Start formulating a plan for the expedition now!"

The other officers nodded in agreement.

...

'Should we move to another city? It seems like there's nothing left to eat here. How am I supposed to get around then?'

After searching the city several more times, the HeLa cell wriggled its disgusting body and pondered, although with its current body, it would take at least 20 years to starve to death.

However, no one knows whether tomorrow or disaster will come first, so the evolutionary cells, just in case, still wanted to find a place with food.

But just as it guessed, it would be extremely difficult for its current body to move.
