With 24-hour shifts, the soldiers have no time to improve their living conditions. The trenches were already narrow due to the time constraints, and now with an additional team resting, they can't even stretch their legs out when they rest.
Everyone hadn't washed for half a month, and they all smelled sour and foul, including Xie Yin, though the smell on his clothes came from Lin Da.
Furthermore, with the presence of troops, some countries' military personnel have not properly disposed of the food they have eaten, attracting countless rats and flies, which then spread bacteria.
That night, Xie Yin killed the seventh rat that tried to invade his territory.
The smell of blood spread through the air, picked up by the creature with a keen sense of smell. Following the scent, it saw the disgustingly dead rats, and its appetite plummeted. It wasn't that it was indiscriminate in its appetite.
"You've arrived."
The sudden voice beside him made Xing Zhengfei's heart skip a beat. He looked at the person who had appeared out of nowhere with a look of horror in his eyes, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "Dad."
Xie Yin: "Want to go in?"
Xing Zhengfei nodded: "I want what the Mutant King has."
Xie Yin: "Go ahead."
Xing Zhengfei thought for a moment and realized he couldn't get in. In a daze, he found himself in an unfamiliar environment. The people around him were wary of his presence, their bodies were in an aggressive posture, and their eyes were fierce.
"You..." The mutant king saw the newcomer's eyes and confirmed that he was one of their kind, but why had he not received his summons and was left to wander outside?
The palace was brightly lit, with walls made of gold and silver and pillars of white jade. It was extravagant beyond compare. Xing Zhengfei looked around and finally focused his gaze on the mutated king.
As mutants transformed from humans, their minds are still imprisoned by the Matrix. Why insist on establishing their own country on Earth? The vast world outside offers much more to offer. He has already set his sights on the equipment for the immigrants and is just waiting for Country A to finish mass-producing it so he can seize it.
It was as if some kind of barrier had been shattered in the minds of the Mutant King and the group of advanced mutants; they fell silent and faced the problem head-on.
Yes, why not go out and explore, starting from scratch, from zero to one? Their conditions are much better than those of humans.
The Mutant King gave Xing Zhengfei the position of National Preceptor and handed him outside resources, demanding that he obtain the immigration device as soon as possible. This side can only delay for a maximum of three months.
This was a timeframe that no one had anticipated. At most, the armies of various countries could hold out for another month. No wonder the Mutant King had been hiding inside and hadn't come out; it was simply because it could afford to wait.
After discussing that, the Mutant King remembered a crucial question: "How did you get in?"
Xing Zhengfei smiled wickedly: "I have an amazing father."
The mutant king pressed, "He can accept your existence? Humans can't be that kind; you've been deceived."
Xing Zhengfei largely agreed with this statement: "Father isn't human either. I can't take your things with me by myself. Have the Space System accompany me."
These words made the Mutant King feel more at ease with him, so he placed his woman, Nona, by Xing Zhengfei's side, offering overt help while secretly monitoring him.
Xie Yin brought Xing Zhengfei out, but didn't even glance at the extra person beside him.
Xing Zhengfei greeted her a few times and then asked Nona to select a few items from her spatial storage that she found beautiful, and hand them to her father: "These are gifts for Mother. I've heard that women are happy when they see pretty things."
Xie Yin accepted the money, and Xing Zhengfei turned and left.
Nona's eyes flickered slightly.
There were no flights back, so Xing Zhengfei saw many ships coming and going at a nearby port, all heading to Country A. He decided to take Nona and rob some things.
The mutants have been reduced to such a small number that they don't need much equipment.
Nona and he sneaked into the ship's cabin and sailed for a week to reach the port of Country A. After disembarking, they stole a car and drove straight to the secret experimental base.
Entering the base required passing through numerous coded doors, but Xing Zhengfei had neither the time nor the patience. He used his supernatural abilities at will, bombarding the ground relentlessly. The alarms blared like death knells, and the white-clad experimenters screamed and fled. Xing Zhengfei knew that for these people, the experimental results were more important than their lives. After observing their movements, he deduced the approximate location of the object.
"Dr. Ai, has anyone come to move the probe? It's our life's work, and we absolutely cannot let it fall into the hands of ignorant people." God knows that once these things are made public, their names will be forever etched in the annals of history, admired by future generations, and showered with endless glory. For those who pursue fame and fortune, this is more important than life itself.
Dr. Ai's assistant even wondered if dying for this would better embody his noble spirit.
Despite his assistant's questions and the noisy environment outside, Dr. Ai continued to debug the equipment without looking up. After perfecting the first generation of spacecraft, he was already developing the second generation. Scientific research never stops, and science is endless.
The assistant was used to not getting a reply. He left the lab and encountered two people who weren't wearing work clothes entering the lab. He was about to yell at them when his throat went awry. His brain was left with a replay of what happened before he died and then stopped working.
Xing Zhengfei stepped over the corpse and saw where the person had come from. He stood at the doorway, and the alarm blared overhead. His sinister face appeared on the largest screen in the monitoring room.
