"Aooo! Aooo! Aooo! "
The howls, each louder than the last, pierced through Lei Lan's head and gave her a splitting headache. She could not think at all. Her short tail was almost stretched into a straight line, shivering together with the muscles all over her body.
She tried her best to recall the whole process of the outbreak of the virus so that she could find a way to escape, but her head was blank. She only remembered that she had just finished the examination and purging in the south of the city with her brother the previous day. After a tiring day, she had been woken up by the explosions and fire soon after she fell asleep.
At that time, the entire camp was in chaos. One of the devilish warships even crashed into the camp. The blast threw Lei Lan high into the air and made her pass out.
When she woke up again, Gloomy Bone City had already turned into a bloody hell. Broken limbs and terrifying 'uncontrollable mutants' were everywhere!
"Huchi! Huchi! Huchi!"
Right then, Lei Lan heard suspicious gasps above her head.
She burped in fear and forced herself to look up, only to see a monster made of tentacles that looked like a sea anemone extending its head from the ground.
A bloody gap appeared in the middle of the 'sea anemone', revealing almost a hundred messy tusks, which must be its mouth.
Lei Lan's heart almost stopped beating.
It was an 'uncontrollable mutant'.
Although she had seen countless uncontrollable mutants in school and on her way here, they were all in the hibernation state confined in the biochemical slots. Besides, she was protected by armed soldiers, too.
This was the first time that she had engaged in a head-on battle with an uncontrollable mutant when she was alone.
After a brief pause, Lei Lan's heart suddenly burst out, and her heart rate was three times higher than before.
She gritted her teeth and took out a freezing syringe from her waist.
Such drugs, which were launched through a jet, could suppress the activity of the Demon God Virus with the extremely low temperature when they were injected into the body of the uncontrollable mutant. It would slow down its action for now.
Swoosh!
The uncontrollable mutant, however, opened its bloody mouth and shot out a tongue that was almost five meters long that was full of thorns. It darted at her right hand brutally.
Lei Lan was so scared that she retreated her hand. Thankfully, the uncontrollable mutant did not tear open her wound. However, the Ice Sealing Syringe was sent flying. With a "Pa Da" sound, it shattered on the ground, forming a small ice flower.
Lei Lan's heart seemed to be wrapped tightly by an ice flower.
The uncontrollable mutant laughed weirdly. Its anemone-like face was even more hideous, and its bloody mouth was almost cracked to the back of its head. It raised its body and was about to crawl into the cave.
Suddenly
A ray of light. It drilled into the creature's temple and paused in its brain for a moment. Then, with a bang, the sea anemone-like head exploded!
The uncontrollable mutant that had lost its head still unleashed the most tenacious vitality. Spurting out the stinky body fluids of the Demon God Virus, it did not fall to the ground until it finally collapsed.
A soldier in a sealed suit bent down and looked into the cave.
"Chuang!"
Lei Lan was overjoyed. It was actually her younger brother, Lei Chuang!
The siblings struggled to leave the cave. The situation in the outside world was far from good.
"It was the Nether World Watch."
Lei Chuang brought the latest news. "The Nether World Watch has detected that Gloomy Bone City is our logistics base. Therefore, they raided this place last night and blew up a warehouse of crystals at first. Then, they released a brand-new mutation of the Demon God Virus during the chaos. The outbreak of the new mutation is very fast. As long as one touches the slightest bit of the virus and is not dealt with in time, they will turn into 'uncontrollable mutants' in only a few minutes!
Lei Lan was silent.
As the plague raged on, almost a hundred mutations of the Demon God Virus had appeared. Some of them were produced by the soldiers of the Nether World Watch. Some of them, on the other hand, had evolved on their own after they were infected by different kinds of demons.
There were all kinds of mutations of the virus. The Pantheon of Demons did not have the time to deal with every mutation of the virus. To produce the corresponding antidotes and vaccines, they could only place all their hopes on the Divine Blood of Chaos, the universal reduction drug. It was a pity that the large-scale synthesis of the Divine Blood of Chaos had not been completed yet. The number of drugs could not keep up with the speed of the virus at all.
"You're hurt!"
Lei Lan exclaimed. She noticed that her brother's left wrist was bloody, as if it had been bitten by a beast. His entire left arm was somewhat blue.
"I'm fine."
Lei Chuang took off the transparent anti-bacterial helmet that he was wearing for show and tore apart the protective suit on his left arm.
Three deep blue bandages were tied to the top of his left arm. The upper half of his left arm had turned bright blue. His muscles and veins had been frozen.
With a gloomy face, he gave an air gun to his sister. Inside the air gun was a venomous dart that contained a super corrosive agent for the nerves.
"I was bitten by accident. But it shouldn't be the latest mutation of the virus. The outbreak won't be so fast.
"I've controlled the virus with freezing for now. I have to get you out of here, sister. If … the virus is out of control, you know what to do!"
Lei Chuang pointed at the center of his eyebrow.
Lei Lan's lips were shivering, but she did not say anything.
After everything that had happened in the past few months, she was no longer the ignorant little girl from a small mountain village.
Holding back her sobs, she nodded her head hard.
"Let's go east. There's a temporary airport for devilish warships in the east of the city. An order has been issued for everybody to evacuate to the east of the city!"
Lei Lan and Lei Chuang ran all the way to the east of the city. They encountered another two uncontrollable mutants on their way. Thankfully, they were both transformed civilians and were not very strong. They were able to get rid of them easily. Finally, they reached the airport in the east of the city half an hour later.
What they saw in the airport, however, chilled them to the bone.
Almost ten devilish warships were lying on the ground. They had all been torn apart and twisted in the flames.
Broken limbs and deep black blood were everywhere on the ground. A lot of uncontrollable mutants were lying on the ground, making disgusting sounds of swallowing. It was a gory scene.
A large batch of uncontrollable mutants had attacked the place earlier than they did!
"Look!"
Lei Lan pointed at the sky in the southwest.
The last devilish warship soared into the sky and flew out of the city.
However, at least a hundred uncontrollable mutants were crouching on the shell of the devilish warship. They were tearing the strengthened external skeleton of the warship with their abnormal claws and teeth.
Even the shell of the warship was having pustules one after another, with tentacles that looked like weird boas growing out.
A lot of active cells would be adopted during the refinement of devilish warships. Such cells would be infected by viruses and mutated, too.
Finally, with the cooperation from the inside and the outside, a tiny gap was torn open on the strengthened external skeleton of the devilish warship!
The hundred uncontrollable mutants immediately crawled into the gap like a black tide!
The scene inside the devilish warship was too gory to be imagined.
A moment later, the warship's trajectory became more and more disordered. After shaking violently for a moment, it plummeted from the sky and exploded!
"More and more uncontrollable mutants are attracted to this place. Let's get out of here!"
Lei Chuang grabbed his sister's hand. The two of them had just turned around when they came to an abrupt halt.
Another hundred uncontrollable mutants had crawled out of the debris behind them at some point. They were sniffing the scent of fresh meat greedily in the hazy mist.
"Hiss! Hiss!"
The dozens of uncontrollable mutants locked onto the scent of Lei Lan and her brother at the same time. Brutality beamed out of their dirty eyes, and stinky saliva was dripping out of their mouths.
The sister and her brother looked at each other in bewilderment, both desperate. Lei Lan held the poison gun tightly. There were four darts in the gun, enough for the two of them.
Right then, a long, vague shriek echoed from the sky. It sounded like an eagle, but it was more like a creature that was even more brutal than an eagle!
Lei Chuang and Lei Lan felt that blue brightness flashed in front of their eyes, and the whole world was enshrouded in blue light. Cracking noises were echoing everywhere. When they opened their eyes again, they were surrounded by a circular barrier made of ice cones. The dozens of uncontrollable mutants that were about to lunge at them were all confined in the ice cones!
Swoosh!
In the night sky where countless uncontrollable mutants were hovering, a streak of brightness appeared, as if it were made of a hundred dark gold lightning bolts!
When the uncontrollable mutants attacked him, the hundred lightning bolts exploded at the same time. While they tore apart the uncontrollable mutants, an unparalleled shadow burst out from the center of the lightning bolts!
Lei Lan was so attracted by the shadow that she even forgot to breathe.
She had never seen anything so beautiful and strong before!
At first glance, it seemed to be a fully-enclosed black armor. However, it did not have the feeling of cold metal at all. Instead, it seemed to be made of translucent black crystals that were covered in an equally translucent membrane of muscles and skin.
Inside the bright black shell, countless bright gold veins, nerves, and fibers seemed to be flowing. As it breathed and breathed, it flickered, as if it were a living creature!
There were no stripes or decorations on the surface of the armor, but demon cores that were as glamorous as night pearls had been embedded on the forehead, chest, shoulders, abdomen, and all the critical parts of the armor.
Lei Lan had never seen such a huge Demon Core before. Every Demon Core was even bigger than her fist. They were in the most perfect semicircular shape, without the slightest impurity. After being carefully refined by an expert, the Demon Core inside was intertwined with each other, forming a series of complicated and mysterious rune arrays!
All the demon cores were connected to each other through the dark gold 'nerves' and constituted a flawless whole. They were glittering together and spreading out a layer of air that seemed to be real around the expert, constituting a second layer of armor made of demonic energy that was spreading out like ripples. BOOM! BOOM! “
Lightning crackled and thunder rumbled endlessly!
