212: That black lightning

MacArthur never expected that Ismail would have a solution to the problem that had been bothering him.

How could Ismail possess a power stronger than his own?

He had already given up on rescuing these mechs.

Perhaps it was just a joke from her.

However, MacArthur immediately dismissed this possibility.

Although she held the two shameless titles of politician and unscrupulous merchant, Ismail never joked at critical moments.

The previous Plan M, 'Ants Devouring Tigers,' did not achieve its intended effect.

However, it did reveal a glimpse of the Tigers Might's unfathomable strength.

It also directly destroyed two terrifying human forbidden zones, allowing America to reclaim a large amount of lost territory.

Furthermore, it acquired the bug-like material of Hellfire Ants Carapace.

No matter how one looked at it, it was a huge win.

Seemingly sensing his hesitation from MacArthur's silence, Ismail continued, "I've long advised you not to waste too many resources on the so-called Plan M."

"Mechs? They're nothing but children's toys."

"Only the strength of one's own flesh and blood is truly capable of crushing everything."

"plan b is the most correct choice."

"Friendly reminder, you don't have much time to hesitate."

"Those mech toys are still waiting for you to rescue them."

"Waste too much time, and I can't guarantee how many mechs I'll be able to rescue."

Mechs? Toys?

Ismail's thoughts were, for once, somewhat aligned with Lin Tianwei's.

Perhaps it was precisely because of Ismail's way of thinking that she could steadfastly pursue plan b.

She obtained an opportunity that might even allow her to defeat Lin Tianwei.

Time waits for no one!

MacArthur, deeply aware of this, directly said, "I accept your deal."

"However, you must rescue at least thirty percent of the mechs, otherwise I will not give you the treasure chest you desire."

"As you know, this is something stored in America's national treasury."

"It's impossible for anyone who hasn't made significant contributions to America to obtain it."

"If you can rescue a large number of mechs,"

"I'll reluctantly consider you someone who has made great contributions to America."

Knowing that Ismail was not a woman who could be swayed by national righteousness, she valued profit more.

MacArthur didn't bother with further pleasantries and directly stated his bottom line.

Unlike the key, the treasure chest was something stored in America's national treasury.

Without a sufficient reason to give it away, MacArthur couldn't silence those politicians.

As for why Ismail needed the treasure chest, MacArthur understood very well.

Paper cannot wrap fire.

Even if Gonzalo promised Ismail to keep it a secret, smart people would understand everything just by seeing Legisamon next to Ismail.

This audacious woman must have turned the Tigers Might's subordinate and obtained a key from the Tigers Might.

Otherwise, she would never have taken such a great risk to harbor Legisamon, this traitor from the farm.

The Tigers Might's wrath.

That was not something an ordinary person could endure.

Combining this with his own intelligence, MacArthur gradually grew excited.

Ismail had already obtained five keys and treasure chests.

She was only one key away from activating the Alpha Gene.

Of course.

Obtaining the last key was also an extremely difficult task.

It wasn't that the price for the last key was very high.

Rather, the entire America had no clue about the last key.

The last key once belonged to the Hartel family.

But ever since the Hartel family was defeated and wiped out in a political struggle, this last key also disappeared without a trace.

No one knew where it was.

It could be lying deep in some garbage dump, or buried deep underground.

Facing MacArthur's conditions, Ismail said disdainfully, "Thirty percent?"

"At least fifty percent."

"If I don't rescue fifty percent of your toys, I won't ask you for the treasure chest either."

"Time waits for no one, I'll show you the huge gap between your toys and my great treasure."

After saying this, Ismail hung up the phone without hesitation.

As she said, time waits for no one.

Wasting time here, she would truly miss out on the treasure chest containing the Alpha Gene.

Outskirts of the Misty Forest.

The moment this deal was struck, a giant helicopter hovering in the air opened its hatch.

This helicopter was also terrifyingly huge.

It had a length of a full two hundred and forty meters.

It was even not much inferior to the largest mech, tianqing no..

Of course.

The technical content of helicopters and mechs was completely different.

Driven by new materials and new energy, simply wanting to enlarge something was a very easy task.

But in general, no one would expend such vast resources to build such an enormous helicopter.

Because it wasn't worth it.

Such a terrifying helicopter also had an immense attraction for flying Awakened Beasts.

It was very easy to attract those Awakened Beasts flying in the air.

Without strong anti-strike capabilities, or protective forces.

Such a huge helicopter was nothing more than a sitting duck.

In such times, it would be better to break it down into countless small helicopters.

Cooperating, they would be more able to ensure the safety of these helicopters and the cargo they transported.

However, this enormous helicopter before them did not attract the attention of flying Awakened Beasts at all.

Or rather, it had already attracted them, but for some reason, those flying Awakened Beasts dared not approach.

A large number of Awakened birds gathered next to the giant helicopter.

But as if fearing something, they only dared to observe from afar and did not dare to get close.

It was as if some invisible force was protecting this giant helicopter.

No sooner said than done!

The moment the helicopter hatch opened, a black lightning bolt instantly shot out from the helicopter.

The black lightning bolt's body was extremely massive.

A rough estimate put its length at least two hundred meters.

Not only that, but this black lightning bolt was also extremely fast.

The moment it leaped from a thousand meters in the air, it quickly plunged into the Misty Forest.

It was as if the human forbidden zone, feared by countless people, was nothing more than a hunting ground it could enter and exit at will.

Without the slightest hesitation.

At this point, the reason for the fear of these Awakened birds was already clear at a glance.

They were afraid of this terrifying creature, enormous beyond compare, right before their eyes.

The Misty Forest was indeed the Misty Forest; even the seemingly terrifying black lightning bolt was instantly affected upon entering.

The most obvious was the speed of the black lightning bolt.

At a visible speed, it gradually slowed down within the mist.

Only then could one barely make out the appearance of this black lightning bolt.

It was actually an extremely massive black giant wolf.

With a body length of around two hundred and ten meters and a shoulder height of nearly a hundred meters, it was undoubtedly a colossal beast.

This was precisely Hei Sha, hidden in the Bruno Institute and continuously domesticated by Professor Yanos.

According to Hei Sha's original genes, even with the Reinforcement of the original Beta Gene and original Gamma Gene, it would have been completely impossible for it to grow to its current state.

But its terrifying Self-healing Ability, its BUG ability to revive infinitely, destined it to be an Awakened Beast that could be freely created.

Furthermore, because all creatures on Blue Star originally mutated due to Hei Sha's blood Infection, Hei Sha had some inexplicable affinity with them.

The rejection rate was also reduced to the lowest.

Ordinary Awakened Beasts might still worry if the Transformation (modification) would be too crazy.

Would it cause the death of the Awakened Beast.

But for Hei Sha, it was completely unnecessary.

Its terrifying Self-healing Ability and infinite revival ability made it incredibly durable.

It could undergo modification surgeries an infinite number of times.

Not only that, but special natural treasures with powerful abilities were also used on it.

Side effects?

The worst it could be was death.

As long as it wasn't incinerated to ashes, Hei Sha could quickly revive with just a bit of flesh and blood.

At this moment, although it still looked like its original black giant wolf form.

From an essential perspective, it had completely lost much of its connection to wolves.

Such a massive size was the best proof.

Because with Hei Sha's genetic potential, it was impossible for it to grow to its current size.

So, it was actually a composite beast made up of the body tissues of countless powerful Awakened Beasts.

Eyes?

Taken from an Awakened Beast that had Awakened on Blue Star.

It not only possessed a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree field of vision but also terrifying dynamic vision.

Seeing both far and near, it was a bug-like existence.

Teeth?

They appeared to be ordinary teeth, but they were taken from the teeth of a giant Awakened piranha.

The teeth of this giant Awakened piranha were not only sharp but also possessed the ability of infinite regeneration, capable of easily tearing open the body of its prey.

Not only that, but there was also a trick hidden within those seemingly neat teeth.

Two fangs, upper and lower, taken from an Awakened king cobra, concealed terrifying Poison.

They could inject the venom hidden in the venom glands into the prey's body the moment they pierced the enemy's body.

And the venom glands within Hei Sha's body were even more remarkable.

They were venom glands formed by the fusion of the venom glands of countless Poison Awakened Beasts.

After countless attempts and combinations, the most terrifying Poison was created.

Just a drop diluted in a river could wipe out all ordinary creatures in the entire river.

Such terrifying teeth naturally required a stronger power system to match.

The biting system taken from a giant Awakened crocodile made Hei Sha's biting force even more terrifying.

It could easily crush various seemingly solid objects.

As for its nose? It wasn't original either.

While a wolf's sense of smell is keen, it cannot compare to an Awakened Beast that has Awakened a scent-based Talent.

From tens of thousands of Awakened dogs, the Bruno Institute selected the most sensitive nose and installed it on Hei Sha's face.

Its terrifying sense of smell could even clearly detect scents from ten thousand meters away.

Hei Sha's brain also mutated under the modulation of countless natural treasures and special drugs.

Although it was brainwashed and lost its self-awareness, it also gained powerful strength.

It not only possessed powerful Mental Power but could also use most Mental-type skills.

Furthermore, it could defend against most Mental attacks.

As for why humans weren't subjected to such modifications to possess similar abilities.

It's simple.

They simply couldn't withstand this level of modification.

Their brains being instantly cooked was their only outcome.

Only a monster like Hei Sha could allow humans to modify its brain.

For ordinary Awakened Beasts, this would definitely be a matter of certain death.

Since Hei Sha's head underwent so many modifications, the Bruno Institute naturally wouldn't overlook other parts.

They aimed to create an all-around terrifying giant beast.

Skeleton?

Claws?

Muscles?

Internal organs?

Even the tail and skin.

To make Hei Sha even stronger, these parts were also modified.

Especially the new skeleton, which directly freed Hei Sha from the title of 'copper head, iron mouth, tofu waist'.

Its body was not only not fragile, but extremely sturdy.

Combined with its terrifying claws, it could instantly unleash an attack powerful enough to tear everything apart.

Furthermore, certain special parts protruded, forming bone spikes that dealt considerable damage.

Hei Sha's muscles were replaced with the muscles of a giant Awakened python from the Rainforest.

They were not only incredibly powerful but also capable of infinite growth.

Making Hei Sha's size even more terrifying.

To complement such powerful muscles and skeleton, Hei Sha's internal organs and blood vessels were completely replaced.

Allowing Hei Sha to fully unleash the power hidden within this body.

Perhaps learning from the lesson of being suffocated in water by Lin Tianwei, underwater breathing capability also held an important position in Hei Sha's modification.

Large air sacs could not only store a large amount of oxygen but also, in conjunction with Hei Sha's unique respiratory system, obtain sufficient oxygen from the water.

Tail? Although it was changed from a fluffy wolf tail to a smooth tail.

But this new tail was not only powerful but also capable of transforming into a long whip, fiercely attacking its enemies.

It could also be considered one of Hei Sha's powerful weapons.

The most miraculous aspect was Hei Sha's skin, which not only had a terrifying heat dissipation effect.

It was also covered with a layer of scales with extremely high defense.

Capable of nullifying most of the damage caused by attacks.

The powerful heat dissipation system also allowed Hei Sha's body to constantly emit a terrifying scent.

Similar to the Tigers Might on Lin Tianwei, it could make opponents who were not strong enough fearful and dare not approach.

This was also the reason why those Awakened birds dared not approach the giant helicopter.

Just smelling this terrifying scent was enough to make them tremble.

And the weaknesses in its lower body were specifically eliminated.

To maintain Hei Sha's ferocity, although its reproductive organs were castrated, a unique gland was installed in its body.

It could not only secrete necessary male hormones to maintain Hei Sha's ferocity.

It could also secrete hormones that stimulate the body's potential according to combat needs, greatly increasing Hei Sha's combat power.

In a sense, this modification was very significant.

After all, Hei Sha, having been modified to its current state, could not possibly have reproductive capabilities.

Removing an ornament in exchange for the disappearance of a fatal weakness was a completely profitable endeavor.
