In the depths of the night, a roar of extreme pain echoed over the advance base, and almost the entire advance base was awakened. The few who had been in service for a long time were familiar with the sound, and the new soldiers, who made up the majority of the population, did not know who was roaring in the middle of the night, and at such a loud level, but it did not bother them in any way, because they had not received orders or alarms, so they simply rolled over and fell back into a deep sleep. For them, the command from the chip is the only center of the world, and nothing else matters.

Advancing to the outskirts of the base, Diaste still lived in his dwelling, a thunderous roar coming in through the open window, dragging him out of his slumber.

Diaste felt like his head was cracking with pain, and the wind blowing in through the window was bitterly cold and insanely dry. The room's already powerful air conditioning system seemed to be out of order, making people fall into an ice cellar, and the general's own heating capacity seemed to come to a standstill. At this moment of awakening, Diaste felt cold and hungry, as if he had returned to the hardest winter of his youth.

Although the general immediately woke up from the unpleasant memories of his childhood, his body still trembled involuntarily, because the cold and constricted tendons brought tingling pain all over his body, and the palms and soles of his feet were as if they had been pierced by needles, and the pain was unbearable. His strong physique and exuberant energy made Diaste nearly immune to the cold, but tonight these abilities seemed to have disappeared somehow.

"Damn, who's howling, I'm going to have to smash his ass tomorrow!" As Diaste wrapped the quilt that seemed to him as thin as a cloth, he viciously imagined his wire-twisted, barbed-strewn whip on the delicate flesh, blood splattered as if it could add a little warmth.

A roar of pain drifted through the open window, and Diaste's trembling body froze. This time he finally recognized Matham's roar, and knew what it took to make Matham so painful with his terrifying strength and strong will. It wasn't until the roar died down that Diaste muttered, "Damn! It turned out to be the second transformation, this madman! Someday, I'm going to give you ......"

For some reason, the thought of Pandora's sweet and innocent face made Diaste shudder, and all vicious, cruel and obscene thoughts disappeared in an instant.

Of course, the general, who had always been domineering, was not willing to give in like this, and he kept repeating: "I have to ...... you I have to ...... you" But no matter how many times he tried, Diaste couldn't connect those vicious, bloody, or desolate scenes with Pandora.

Finally, the general gave up his futile efforts and struggles and fell back to the top. As soon as he lay down, he found that the clothes on his body had been soaked with sweat for some time. And the room is so hot that it is so stuffy that people are almost out of breath, and it seems that the heating system that has just failed has not only recovered its function, but also increased its power several times out of thin air.

Unable to sleep anymore, Diaste simply jumped up from above, threw himself in front of the window, pushed the window open, and breathed the cold air fiercely, but could not get rid of the heat on his body. Diaste's eyes were bloodshot and filled with despair. He knew very well that tonight's strangeness meant that his hatred of Pandora and his courage to resist it was disappearing, or, in another sense, the courage to pursue freedom.

After a moment's pause, Diaste walked to the table on the other side, opened the drawer, and took out a transparent glass box from it, and examined it carefully by the dim light of the nightlight. The box is divided into four compartments, each containing about a milliliter of light liquid.

This is a liquid extracted and reduced from the wound on Masem's body, which has a special effect on various organisms based on human genes and whose genetic modification deviates from a certain limit, and its main function is to induce the disintegration of genes and form a new virus-like cell with extremely destructive power. It is capable of moving at a hundred times the speed of normal cells, attacking all normal cells and breaking them down into nutrients needed for their own reproduction. According to complex conservation laws, a hundredfold speed and vitality means that the survival cycle is only one hundredth of that of a normal cell. Now the inconspicuous box of liquid in Diaste's hand has lost its effectiveness, and it is full of corpses of specific cells.

The same liquid, there was also a sample in the forward base, which was also taken from Matham at that time, and at that time Matham also read the description on the bullet: Special Lifeform Special Bullet Trial Type, Helen.

Compared with the initial sample, the potency of the sample on Diaste's hand has not improved much, and the stability has been slightly enhanced, but the biggest difference is the volume! You must know that if a weapon with no matter how powerful it cannot be mass-produced, its role in actual combat is far inferior to that of a weapon that is one grade or even several grades lower in power. The liquid in the hand is one such thing, and even if there are surviving samples, such extremely unstable biochemical preparations can only be prepared artificially in the most advanced real yàn room. In order to synthesize enough doses for one bullet, it would take up a week's production capacity of the Scorpion of Calamity's top real room, and the quality of the finished product could not be guaranteed. According to the analysis results of the Central Intelligence Brain, the special bomb for special life forms was developed based on Malim's genetic fragments, and the latest preparation found in Masim indicates that the manufacturer has partially solved the problem of mass production.

Having crossed such a technical hurdle in such a short period of time, this Helen, and the technical prowess she represents, made Diaste, who had once built the Scorpion of Calamity, deeply uneasy.

Although there were many wounds on Matham's body, the real heavy wounds, except for the one knife in his wrist, were the four special bullets for special lifeforms.

Judging by the way the opponent uses this special projectile, the woman must have more reserves in her hand, and they will not only be effective for voters like Mathim, but also for the special soldiers who have been concocted by the Scorpion of Calamity. While the Dark Dragoon certainly won't use such a rare one on special fighters right now, who knows what the damn future will hold, maybe a new and more powerful model will be popped up soon, and maybe these special shells will be as cheap as anti-aircraft bullets.

"But......" Diastre suddenly expelled all thoughts about strategy and response measures from his mind viciously! It's Pandora's war, it's the apostle's war, it's not his Diaste's war, what's his business!

For Sue, who returned to the base, it was just a rare gap in the long war.

When the hands of the clock pointed to three o'clock in the night, Sue suddenly sat up from above! He held his breath before slowly exhaling the gas in his chest. Sue's body was covered with sweat, and the bedding was wet. He silently descended—and just like that—he stood in front of him, exposing his perfect body to the cold air. The sweat hanging from the skin was quickly reabsorbed by the body, and for Sue, the waste of water was completely intolerable.

Through the dusty windows, Su Wangwang was also very brightly lit and busy in the middle of the night.

Pendulum City has been transformed into a huge military and new/new/fast16 supply base, and the infrastructure that Roxserland has built at great expense has been very well designed at the beginning, making it fairly easy to renovate, and the factory and energy supply system have been remodeled on the spot to become a military factory and repair shop for Dragoons. Dragoons are not a few who are good at night fighting, so in this moment of rest and sleep, it is the time for them to go out.

Outside the window is a mixture of the hustle and bustle of people and the roar of machines, and this kind of temporarily renovated abandoned building has no sound insulation effect at all, and Su will not spend any money on it. One of the reasons why Sue had rebuilt a temporary residence was to suit his status as a dragoon major, and he was now well aware of the significance of doing so. The other was to create a resting place for Rei and Rigore, who did not have the ability to purify themselves like Sue.

On Sue's back, Li turned over, said something vaguely, and fell into a deep sleep again, unaware that most of her graceful back and buttocks had been exposed.

There was no air-conditioning in this makeshift room, and the temperature in the room was so low that the water froze. Of course, Li's physique can withstand the cold of this Cheng dù, but Su still walked to the side and stuffed Li, who slept very dishonestly, into the quilt again. Rei slept so hard that she didn't even know she had been fiddled with. Looking at Li, who was sleeping like a baby, smiled quietly climbed up the corners of her well-defined lips. Looking at Li's sleepy face without worry, Su's heart also felt peace and joy.

This is also happiness, you don't need to get anything yourself, as long as you can let the person you care about sleep well, it is also a kind of happiness. When I was younger, I watched Medirri's sleeping Sue all night with the same smile.

Su returned to the window, stretched out his right hand, and looked at his hand carefully by the light that came in from the window. The five fingers of his hand are slender, and the delicate skin can make women go crazy with jealousy, and the slightly transparent skin and perfect lines give Sue's right hand some magical charm.

However, it was still a human hand, the back of the hand was not covered with turquoise scales, the roots of the five fingers were not so strange as gem-like crystals, and the fingertips and wrists were not thin and sharp, and the blades were free to stretch. And in the palm of his hand, the strange symbol that frightened Su Moming also disappeared.

On his chest, not to mention the huge dark black oval crystal embedded in the center, even the seven small shuttle-shaped crystals around him disappeared.

The back felt empty, as if something was missing, something big, heavy, and hard to drive. Sue's impression of those things was very vague, and she couldn't remember what they were at all, and the only feeling that remained in her vague memory was that they were powerful.

In the end, Sue's field of view has changed to 180 degrees ahead, rather than a panoramic view that can cover all directions.

Sue put her hand on her chest and gently touched her skin, the sensation from her fingertips was strange and unique, the kind of slippery and delicate that only Persephone, the little girl and the Spider Queen Lanaxies had experienced, and the skin of other women could not be compared to Sue.

But shouldn't it be covered with a layer of transparent skin? It should be very thin and soft to block most harmful radiation and rays, and when needed, it can spit out scales comparable to the highest alloy to protect the entire body.

Su felt a little headache, not because those elegantly shaped corners on her head had disappeared, of course, but because she was overthinking. Until now, Su Du, who had been standing in front of the window for ten minutes, had not completely recovered from the dream he had just passed. If it weren't for the Li-Shang, and her fierce appearance in the fierce battle before going to bed, the realism in the dream might have made Su think that she was in a dream now.

Yes, after falling asleep, Sue had a very weird dream.

If it weren't for the four special shells for the special creatures brought by Leigh, it might have cost Matham his life to force him back, maybe Leigh, maybe Rigore, but definitely not Sue. Su's body's powerful resurrection ability made it difficult for him to fully ——, and under the stimulation of the strange summon, the instinctive call had been strengthened several times. Su was skeptical that instinct would take over control of his body and force him to flee the battlefield in the face of real danger. The second fierce battle with Matham has shown that instinctive escape ability is excellent.

However, if it weren't for the four special bullets that Helen brought to Leigh......

Su didn't want to think about the consequences of not having a special ammunition, whether it was Lily or Rigore, which one - it was unacceptable. Su hated his weakness, but he knew that being strong was never determined to succeed. The path to higher-order, more powerful abilities is always difficult, and there are countless surprises ahead. Su, who has now stepped into the seventh-order ability, deeply understands that every small step forward is a combination of sweat, courage, will, blood, and luck. This is something that cannot be rushed, and it is useless to be anxious, but although Su's thoughts are clear, he still can't control his anxiety.

So there was that strange dream.

In the dream, Sue needed a strong defense, so she had incomparably hard scales and tough, dense transparent skin. Su needed a sharp attack again, so he had a thin blade that could be stretched freely. There was also Matham in the dream, a punch that smashed Sue's entire left arm. However, in the dream, Sue's bones are constantly twisted and revived, and new unknown substances are added to the bones, eventually forming a skeleton with an incomparably complex microstructure. When Matham was again empowered by his amazing punch, the power was rapidly transmitted and dispersed in the new bones, evenly distributed across each microstructure. So in the dream, Sue easily blocked Mathum's heavy punch. He replaced the saber with the blade on his right hand, and cut off the giant's right fist entirely. It turned out that Matham was so vulnerable that he didn't even give Sue a chance to use a lot of new organs that didn't know how to work.

Then, in a dream, Sue saw what he looked like, and he immediately woke up and was sweating profusely.

Yes, Sue in the dream was very powerful, and he even had the confidence to face Persephone, however, Sue knew very well that he was not human in the dream. So what exactly is he? Even now, when he was sober and searched his knowledge base diligently, Sue didn't find the answer, but he could know for sure that it was definitely not human.

Su never wanted to be like that, because excessive mutation could well be a point of no return. At that time, he will inevitably drift further and further away from Persephone.

But......

Su looked out the window at the deep night sky and let out a long breath.

If mutation is the only way to gain power, then he will not refuse to mutate, even if it is the end of his life with Persephone. He needs strength, and strength is the only guarantee to protect those around him. Even if mutation brings not only power, but also a huge shadow of unknown origin. When he was in the wilderness, Sue was not willing to become strong too quickly, and he always had an inexplicable fear of too strong a force.

Sue raised her left arm and moved her fingers gently. After only one day, the bones in his left arm had begun to heal, and he now needed no protective measures and was able to do non-strenuous activities. It's just that it still takes at least a week to fully heal, which is an unimaginable recovery speed for ordinary people, and Su is not in a hurry. A series of battles has brought him 20 evolution points, and now he needs to rest and plan his next ability.

At this moment, Sue's attention was all on his left arm, and he didn't notice the light coming in through the window on his body, casting a shadow on the wall behind him.

And this shadow suddenly became huge and hideous.

When the sky lit up again, Su led Hu Cong and the soldiers to quietly leave the base and return to Dragon City. The Dragoon, who was still fighting in Pendulum City, suddenly found that the scorpion warriors of Calamity, who had been everywhere like locusts, had receded like a tide, and the war was about to end without warning. A few dragoons were either unwilling to give up, or their exploits were not enough to make up for the losses, and they led the crowd in pursuit despite the lieutenant colonel's order to leave the battle.

They broke all the way, except for a small number of warriors left behind by the Calamity Scorpion, in fact, the team was routed all the way, and the speed of escape was really not very consistent with their meager individual strength. It's been a long time since the pursuing dragoons have fought so well, or rather, it's been a long time since they've defeated a strong enemy so cleanly.

Doom always strikes at the last moment, when the dragoons who go deeper suddenly find themselves surrounded by the warriors of the Calamity Scorpion, outnumbered enough to squeeze them and their meager minions alive and tread through, and all retreats have been blocked. The experienced dragoons immediately formed a formation and defended themselves, trying to hold on with superior firepower and strong individual combat power, waiting for the support of the base.

However, they didn't wait for the Scorpion Warriors of Calamity——, and they couldn't wait for reinforcements from the base. Before their formation was fully arranged, there was a strange whistling in the air. In the desperate pupils of those experienced veterans, the last thing that emerged was a heavy artillery shell like a dark cloud.

So, the war ended in an instant.

In the final moments of the Battle of Pendulum City, the Dark Dragoon's record of zero casualties was broken, with a total of four Dragoons killed.

A little earlier, in the command room of the Calamity Scorpion Advance Base, Diaste closed the virtual command instrument in front of him. He had given his last order, and for him, the local battle was over.

He didn't even wait for the heavy artillery shells to fall.
