Chapter 609 - Transformation (1/2)

Xiao Luo had a cold, ruthless look on his face. He walked up purposefully to the man in the black suit, then squatted next to him and said, “Tell me your name and rank. You only have one shot at telling me the truth, so I hope you cherish it!”

It was a straightforward sentence, but it carried an ominous ultimatum.

The man in the black suit wisely chose to tell all. How would he dare lie to such an all-powerful and enigmatic being? Although his body was in excruciating pain, and blood was streaming profusely from his mouth and nostrils, he gritted his teeth and replied, “Argh. I… I’m Major General Matsushita Take… of the second division… Ri nation Ground Self-Defense Force…”

“Is there a human research laboratory in there that conducts experiments on live subjects?” Xiao Luo probed further.

Matsushita Take’s face contorted in pain, but he froze the moment he heard Xiao Luo because this was a highly classified operation. He was a Major General, and if this secret leaked out, he would have to face the consequences.

But Xiao Luo’s patience ran out. He grabbed the man by the scruff of his neck and dragged him from under the wreck like he was dragging a dead dog. The man’s right leg was crushed and trapped underneath the overturned jeep. And Xiao Luo’s action ripped his leg off, causing a copious amount of blood to splatter from the wound. It was a gruesome sight as Matsushita Take’s thigh bone was visible. Unable to bear the pain, he howled in agony, causing everyone’s hair to stand on ends.

What they saw horrified the other three men in the wreck. They looked at Xiao Luo like he was the devil, and it filled their eyes with fear.

“Look into my eyes!”

Xiao Luo spoke sternly to Matsushita Take before he put him under hypnosis, and the major general fell into a deep altered state. As long as the other party’s will power was weak, the hypnosis would produce the desired results. Matsushita Take’s willpower was not strong enough, and Xiao Luo hypnotized him within a few beats. His eyes became glazed and seemed out of focus, as he responded sluggishly to a question Xiao Luo posed.

Xiao Luo very quickly found out that there was a human research lab in there, and its goal was to study genetically modified humans. They were developing warriors who were invincible for deployment in future battles. The key person overseeing this operation was a Major General by the name of Yamashita Tomotaka. And what they were experimenting on were not animals but living human beings. They were mostly Hua nationals who had come to Ri Nation, and the abductions resulted from the information provided by the police.

The police?

Xiao Luo frowned and continued to probe for more information.

The answer came from Matsushita Take’s very lips, and the name he provided was none other than—the Chief of Police, Tanaka Hiroshi. The police chief was in cahoots with the military, and it was he who provided the information that Wang Leyou’s body was being transported to the station. The laboratory then sent their people to ambush the police car and snatched Wang Leyou’s corpse.

Xiao Luo also pressed for information on Fu Yiren’s whereabouts. Matsushita Take answered that there was a lady whose entire body was filled with potent toxins, and she was being detained in the research facility. They had not done anything to Fu Yiren yet, except to extract blood from her every day for their research. The toxins in her blood had high research value compared to the genetically modified soldiers.

“Why did you choose to use Hua nationals as your research subjects?”

“Because those people are the lowest form of humanity and deserve to be enslaved. They’re no different from lab rats!” Matsushita Take responded in his subconscious state and without emotion.

Being from the Hua Nation, Xiao Luo was infuriated upon hearing this. On top of that, he had just confirmed that there was a research facility in the base, and they were conducting live experiments on Hua nationals. The moment Xiao Luo heard that what the major general said, he instantly meted out the death sentence.

“Very well, then. To hell with all of you!”

He had not planned on killing anyone while he was in Ri Nation, but he could not hold back any longer.

Xiao Luo clasped Matsushita Take’s throat and twisted it forcefully. The vertebrae snapped with a crack and the major general’s head lolled limply to its side. Thankfully for the major general, he was still in a state of hypnosis and he did not feel the pain.

“No, please… Please don’t kill us…”

“We’re not from the laboratory. We’re just Major General Matsushita’s subordinates…”

But Xiao Luo did not spare their lives. He kicked each of them once and smashed their ribs, and the blow ruptured their internal organs, killing them instantly.

“Suzuki Ikuo, come here with your men!”
