Mercenary base.
On account of the development of communication technology.
When the beasts on the experimental island rushed out of the forest and pounced on the 120 mercenaries, the situation was transmitted back to the mercenary base headquarters at the fastest speed.
In the meeting room.
This video was top secret and was only viewed by the highest executives of the organization.
The person in charge stared at the big screen and the beasts that kept rushing out… His eyes were cold and indifferent.
Clattering sound…
The mercenaries reacted quickly. They immediately took out their submachine guns and started shooting when they saw the beasts.
Although the bullets were very powerful.
It was not enough when facing a great number of beasts.
“Ahh…”
A mercenary shot a mutated wolf in the head.
But the bullet was stuck in its skull.
The wolf moved as fast as a black shadow and bit the mercenary’s abdomen at once. The intense pain made the mercenary let out a hysterical scream.
“Help, help!! What kind of monsters are these?”
A mutated lion kicked a mercenary to over 20 meters away. He fell to the ground, spitting blood and speaking intermittently. After that, he died from internal injuries.
More than half of the 120 mercenaries were killed or injured during the first clash.
Around 30 mercenaries were fighting to the utmost.
The rest of the mercenaries went crazy and rushed towards the two ships that were still floating on the sea.
The number of mutated beasts demoralized them.
Of course!
Some mutated beasts were also slaughtered during this process.
But it wasn’t a significant number comparing to the amount of mutated beasts in total.
“The plan has been completely disrupted! The original plan was to have 120 mercenaries split into six teams to slaughter the mutated beasts in the forest. However, who would have thought that the beasts had already been guarding the landing site? What do you guys think about this situation?”
The person in charge of the mercenary base gazed at the big screen. His expression remained unchanged at the sight of the tragic deaths of mercenaries.
He stared at the screen for more than ten seconds and finally shifted his gaze away to look at the shocked executives of the organization.
“I suggest that we order them to retreat immediately! Let the ship dock and save however many mercenaries they can!”
One of the executives said without much thought.
Cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
Even the most difficult missions in the past weren’t nothing like what he saw today.
Those mercenaries were all alive and spirited moments ago… They were suddenly attacked by the mutated beasts in the blink of an eye and lost more than half of the force in less than 20 seconds.
Retreat!
To preserve their strength. It was the most genuine thought of that executive.
However…
Whoosh!
His suggestion brought him the cold gaze of the head of the organization.
“Retreat? Absolutely impossible! These mutated beasts were the most important resources. Even though our mercenaries died, they still made plenty of contributions. Did you see that they killed quite some mutated beasts as well? We will send people to retrieve the corpses once the battle is over. This mission is a success as long as we obtain the genes,” the head of the organization said with endless coldness in his eyes.
“But… everyone will die!”
Another executive obviously could not accept this. Eyes bloodshot, he bellowed.
“No further discussions! This is an order!”
The person in charge said it coldly and turned to the big screen again.
Crashing sound…
Ahhhh..
The killing continued.
Tens of thousands of mutated beasts charged at the 120 mercenaries with weapons.
In fact, the outcome of this battle had been obvious since the beginning. It was suicidal for the mercenaries to land on the Experimental Island rashly.
In the distance.
Ye Bei had been secretly watching the battle.
Mercenaries slaughtered mutated beasts for money.
Mutated beasts ignored bullets and charged forward frantically in order to survive.
“It’s really difficult to be alive. You can only ignore all the rules by standing at the top of the food chain. No matter what kind of schemes your enemy may have, you can crush them into dust with the absolute power.”
Fizz!
Ye Bei kept flicking his tongue.
Of course, he was calculating in his mind while speaking.
A human was worth 10,000 evolution points.
A mutated beast was worth at least thousands of evolution points. The stronger ones might be worth tens of thousands of evolution points.
In Ye Bei’s eyes, the fight between the mercenaries and the mutated beasts was the best way for him to obtain a large number of evolution points without expending any energy.
Ten minutes!
Twenty minutes…
Finally, the 120 mercenaries all died tragically on the experimental island. Not a single one survived.
Those mercenaries who attempted to jump into the sea and swim to the ships were pecked to death by some mutated eagles. The mutated eagles obediently carried out Ye Bei’s orders and used their claws to grab the corpses to bring them back to the beach.
“It’s about time!”
Flicking his tongue, Ye Bei walked out from the shadow after the battle ended.
The beach of the experimental island was stained by bright red blood.
The air was filled with the stench of blood…
The mutated beasts didn’t care about their own casualties. They cheered on the beach for massacred 120 humans.
Roaring…
Howling…
Chirping…
All kinds of animal sound.
These sounds were translated into a language Ye Bei could understand when they reached his ears.
“Humans are not so impressive!”
“I finally got my revenge! When I was young, I was constantly being studied by these humans and pricked by their needles.”
“Hahaha! All humans deserve to die.”
“How dare they invade our island. From now on, this entire island belongs to us.”
“The Python King’s idea is really not bad! As long as we dare to fight and let go of our fear, we will be able to obtain victory easily.”
The voices of the beasts were mixed together.
Fizz!
However, at this moment, Ye Bei stopped concealing his energy and slithered across the beach. The mutated beasts stopped making noise when they saw Ye Bei’s giant body.
The beach gradually returned to silence.
The beasts even quickly separated themselves into different groups by species and stood together.
The scene was transmitted back to the mercenary base.
In the meeting room, the head of the mercenary base… finally revealed an unprecedented fear on his face.
Meanwhile, Ye Bei started to speak with determination.
