Chapter 84 - The S-Grade Queen Insect (1/2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the southeast of New York Base City, there was a man-made freshwater lake. More than two hundred years ago, the human Federation eventually used a nuclear weapon after experiencing global mutation.
At that time, a nuclear bomb filled with 5 million tons of TNT had been dropped in this area. The huge shockwave destroyed the mutated creatures in this area. However, people eventually discovered that a large number of mutated creatures had appeared from underground.
As time passed, the place where the nuclear bomb had exploded formed the current lake.
At this moment, the roar of an aircraft engine could be heard from midair. An aircraft that belonged to the Genetics College was slowly landing from midair, attracting the attention of the surrounding mutated creatures.
The aircraft landed beside the lake. After the cabin door opened, a tall man walked out.
None of the mutated creatures that had been observing the man dared to rush over and attack this human. The smallest creature among the mutated creatures, a mutated rat, stared at the human for a while with its scarlet eyes. Then, it immediately turned around and disappeared at the entrance of an underground cave.
Then, more and more mutated creatures began to gather around the lake. These mutated creatures ran over to observe the human who had suddenly intruded into their territory.
At this moment, an ear-piercing scream sounded from the originally quiet environment. The mutated creatures gathered around the lake immediately shivered from the scream.
The sound, which was similar to a sound wave attack, did not last long. As the sound wave attack slowed down, a huge mutated snake creature crawled out of an underground cave.
The giant snake also had three sharp horns on its head, each of which was about the height of an adult. It crawled extremely quickly. In a few breaths, it had arrived in front of the human.
The huge snake’s head crawled at the feet of the human. After the snake opened its mouth, a human language sounded from its mouth.
“Master, please forgive me for not being able to receive you outside the cave.”
Peter could tell that the voice which came out of the giant snake’s mouth was the voice of the A-Grade queen insect.
To his surprise, this A-Grade queen insect knew how to behave like a human in society and knew how to suck up to others.
However, after Peter came here, he was surprised to find that after a few months, the number of mutated creatures nurtured by this A queen insect was indeed terrifying.
In Peter’s field of vision, there were a lot of mutant creatures. The types and numbers of creatures were terrifying, and they vaguely exceeded the number of creatures nurtured by the previous S-Grade queen insect.
Without further delay, Peter carried the fake President’s body into an underground cave.
Eventually, Peter did not agree to Professor Eugene’s suggestion before leaving the Genetics College. Instead, he left Betty at the Genetics College.
This time, Peter was the only one who brought the fake President’s body to the nest of the A-Grade queen insect. To be safe, Professor Eugene did not come with him. Instead, he was left at the Genetics College for emergencies.
As for Betty, Peter had other plans for her. Since the Federation had exposed the image of him and Professor Eugene dissecting the President’s corpse, whether it was true or not, the secret information that Betty had seen no longer mattered.
Moreover, there was a limit to how many humans the A-Grade queen insect could control. Since the information that Betty had seen was no longer a secret, Peter would not waste one of the A-Grade queen insect’s control slots.
However, he wondered how many more humans the A-Grade queen insect could control after reaching the S-Grade.
