A fight had already broken out nearby, but luckily the guards in the compound were all elite soldiers, otherwise they would have escaped.
My creature had an open mouth on its chest, while the woman's creature had tentacles extending from its back, like an octopus.
The other man was even more disgusting; his tongue was two meters long.
The two are now tied up like rice dumplings, and the one with the long tongue has had its mouth sealed.
"What kind of monsters are these?"
After I asked, the guards all looked embarrassed, and the company commander asked me directly:
“Engineer Zheng, you can tie up the one you're reviewing too.”
"Then be careful, he has a mouth on his chest, don't let it bite through the rope."
I know they have rules, and there are some things they can't say.
However, not long after I got back, the people from the Ninth Infantry arrived.
He's the feng shui master and ancient script expert who came with me to Meiguo to handle things in the small town of Meiguo—Old Hei.
"Engineer Zheng!"
"Old man! Please have a seat."
Old Hei smiled at me and sat down on the sofa.
"What does Engineer Zheng think of the people you arrested?"
Most people would think they were monsters or demons, but I know that they have genetic mutations.
"I just want to know where they're from."
"As expected of Engineer Zheng, you got straight to the point. Engineer Zheng, have you ever heard of an empty city?"
It is a nuclear research and development base near the Arctic Circle.
At the time, the UK was conducting a nuclear test there, which resulted in a nuclear leak, so the UK military withdrew from the area.
Soon after, a riot broke out in a nearby prisoner-of-war camp in Goose Country, and a large number of prisoners from Japan and Germany fled there.
Later, when international regions were divided, that area was designated as an international region, which led to chaos there.
Many criminals then fled in that direction.
“There are still people conducting illegal experiments there, which has resulted in the creation of these mutants.”
"The United States, Japan, and several other countries are secretly cooperating with them; that place is now considered the largest black biological warfare base."
I was just about to ask them how they possessed the Blood of the Core Machine when Old Man Hei continued:
"Breaking news: a special area has suddenly appeared there, seemingly the ruins of some high-tech civilization. Special investigators from various countries have started to move around."
"If all the countries are running that way, how did the mutants end up here?"
Old Hei gave a wry smile: "Doesn't this need to be investigated? Besides, all three people you arrested are dead, so we and the counter-espionage department have no choice but to go to the empty city to investigate."
"Dead?"
"Yes! They have a remote-controlled poisoning system inside their stomachs."
This! If they still had the blood of the Core Machine, they would be fine, but unfortunately I extracted it.
That woman had a high AI level and was also skilled in hacking. She was able to temporarily unblock my program, but she still died from the virus.
If they don't cherish such talented people, does that mean there are even more capable people among them?
"That old man from Blackie is looking for me..."
"We have already reported the matter of the mutants and the empty city to General Peng, and he asked me to wait here with you."
"You're not asking me to go, are you?"
"You are both knowledgeable in high technology and highly skilled; there is no one more suitable than you."
Um... then that means we can't go to the seabed to raise Aunt Jun's intelligence level?
"Then I'll have to trouble Old Hei to stay in the guest room."
"Hehe! The old man can just sit on the sofa and meditate."
"Then please, Mr. Blackie!"
"Zheng, you should get some rest too. We expect a lot of people to come tomorrow."
I can't rest; I need to finish the electromagnetic railgun's firing program as soon as possible, since it's almost dawn anyway.
Before dawn, I finished the launch program and sent it to Ayan Guli.
They probably haven't gotten up yet over there.
After I finished posting, I went to wash up, and Old Hei was already practicing Tai Chi in the yard.
Actually, I also want to ask, what are we sending the black guy for? Is there something unclean there?
What? There are no ghosts or monsters in the world?
After seeing the aliens, I'm not so sure anymore.
"Old man! Let me take you out to eat first."
"Okay! I reckon by the time we finish eating, President Peng should be here."
Sure enough, when we came back after eating, Peng Jun, Aunt Jun, Great-Aunt, Yu Li, and Meng Jin were all standing in the center of the courtyard.
"Master, Great-Aunt, Aunt Jun, Senior Sister, Senior Brother!"
I clasped my hands in a fist salute to everyone, and then stood next to Aunt Jun and Peng Jun.
Peng Jun: "Hmm! Is everyone here this time?"
Because this is in a radiation zone, we will be issued protective suits by the authorities, so everyone must be careful when going there.
Zheng Yang! Is your plane still there?
"Yes! At the Beijing military airport."
"Great! We just needed to get the supplies, let's go."
A car has been arranged outside, and we'll all go to the Beijing military base together.
On the way there, my great-aunt asked me, "Zheng Yang! Won't it interfere with your plans if we take you there like this?"
Before I could speak, Yu Li said from the side:
"Master! With Uncle Peng and Aunt Jun by his side, what can't he let go of?"
Aunt Jun turned and smiled at me.
Peng Jun: "You're the only one who knows. I guess that's why the higher-ups sent me with Shao Jun. But Shao Jun really needs some training."
"Once we get there, my great-aunt and I will just provide support. Old Hei, you'll lead a few young men; this is your Ninth Bureau's mission."
"Huh? Mr. Peng! You think too highly of this old man, don't you?"
"You just need to do the talking. Zheng Yang! We also brought your robot dog, let Lao Hei ride it."
It even has a lucky charm?
"Master! But Old Black can't control Wangcai."
"It's alright! Wangcai is with you and Shaojun, so he can protect him too."
It seems Old Man Hei isn't good at fighting: "Alright then!"
