Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“If you want to stay here to become the feces of that monster. Don’t hinder us!” The remaining two people clearly believed that Zhao Yu and the others were in cahoots with the monster and had made up their minds to escape.

Soon, the group successfully dig out an opening in the blockade. The man took the lead and the other following, crouched and crawled through.

After passing through, the woman looked back and asked the one who remained, “Meng Meng, are you coming or not?”

“I, I…”

Meng Weng was extremely conflicted.

The woman on the other side lost her patience, “Then stay here and die!”

She hurriedly fled with the man through the other end of the sewer.

They took the only torch, leaving Meng Meng a bit scared. She stood still, glancing occasionally at the opening in the blockade and then back at the faint light at the sewer entrance, unsure of what to do.

“Ah—!”

A shrill scream echoed from the other end of the sewer.

It’s him!

The owner of that scream was the very companion who had just crawled out.

Meng Meng instinctively wanted to run, but her foot slipped, and she fell.

“Thud thud thud—!”

Rapid footsteps could be heard.

By the time Meng Meng struggled to stand, a head suddenly popped out of the hole in the barrier.

“Meng Meng, save me—!”

It was the woman who had urged her to leave earlier.

She desperately crawled towards Meng Meng, but the opening was too small, hindering her speed.

Just as she was almost through, “Ah—!”

Half her body was suddenly pulled back, as if something was forcefully dragging her from behind.

“Help me—!”

Before Meng Meng could say anything, the woman disappeared with a swish.

“Help! Save me—!”

At that point, Meng Meng couldn’t hold back any longer and screamed loudly.

At that moment, footsteps sounded from behind.

Zhao Yu rushed over upon hearing the noise.

With just one glance at the hole that had been opened, he understood what had happened.

They must have removed the barrier on their own, and as a result, two of them were killed by the alien.

Two soldiers held torches, illuminating the hole in the blockade.

The rest of the soldiers held up their guns, aiming at the hole, waiting for the alien to show itself.

After a long wait and no sign of the alien, Zhao Yu realized it probably wouldn’t emerge from there.

He immediately ordered his men to seal off the area.

“Bang —!” “Bang —!” “Bang —!”

A gunshot rang out behind him.

Entrance?

The alien had circled to the entrance and attacked his troops.

Zhao Yu order all to returned back quickly as he only ordered a few to guard the entrance. Once he almost reached the ambush spot. Zhao Yu saw a sharp pillar in the chest of one of the soldiers. It was the tail of the alien.

Yet, he soldier whose body had been impaled by the creature, desperately held onto its tail, refusing to let go.

At the same time, several other soldiers nearby were grabbing and holding its tail firmly.

Zhao Yu aware of the creature’s agility, had instructed his soldiers to capture the alien with all their might.

“Fire without holding back. Just kill it!”

Zhao Yu commanded.

All soldiers’ bodies were cloned, and their brains were controlled by chips, making them more like robots clad in human skin. There have no fear or pain and this is the point to catch the alien out of surprise.

“Ratatatat—!”

Immediately, the other soldiers pressed their triggers relentlessly, unleashing a hail of bullets towards the creature, heedless of the safety of the soldiers holding onto it.

“Clank!” “Clank!”

Once all the bullets had been spent, all of the four soldiers holding onto the creature in the rear lay motionless.

Peeking through the gaps, Zhao Yu saw the creature’s tail still embedded in the soldier’s abdomen, motionless.

“Go check on it!”

Two soldiers equipped with bayonets approached to inspect the scene. The outcome was clear.

The alien was still struggling for a while before it die!

“Finish it off!”

Zhao Yu, however, didn’t rush to see the creature up close. Instead, he ordered the soldiers to deal further blows to its head.

They used three bayonets, each corroding away, before finally severing the entire head of the creature.

Meanwhile, Zhao Yu received a notification from the system.

[Daily mission completed. Reward: 50 Technology Points.]

It was only now that he approached to get a clear view of the alien’s true visage. Over two meters in length, with a half-meter-long head and a tail stretching beyond three meters, its entire body was clad in a pitch-black armor, not much different from the image he had in mind.

“Sizzling—!”

The alien’s blood flowed ceaselessly, corroding a significant pit in the ground.

Zhao Yu ordered the obstacles to be removed, preparing to exit from the other end.

“Is it dead?!”

“Is the monster dead?!”

The remaining female student was visibly shaken, her body was still trembling. “Yes!”

“You’re safe now.”

Zhao Yu offered a brief reassurance before following the soldiers out through another exit.

He came across the lifeless body of a woman with eyes still wide open in terror. A few steps more, and there was another corpse.

Meng Meng, the female student, naturally didn’t want to linger. Positioned among the soldiers, she was heartbroken to see her companions who were just fine a moment ago now lifeless.

However, she dared not halt even for a second to mourn and quickly trailed behind Zhao Yu.

Soon, the group exited the sewer.

Along with them was the alien’s corpse.

Zhao Yu hadn’t forgotten that in the recycling furnace, such alien bodies were classified as special flesh, which could be used to create special troops in the future.

So, he planned to bring this alien back!

As for the fallen soldiers, Zhao Yu had stretchers made to transport and recycle them.

“That’s it, it’s safe here now. You don’t need to follow us anymore.”

Meng Meng still shadowing him, Zhao Yu waved her off, indicating she should stay.

“Please, take me with you!”

Meng Meng pleaded to go with Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu then took the opportunity to observe her closely: a regular-looking young girl, seemingly in her early twenties.

“It’s not appropriate for me to take you…”

Zhao Yu pondered for a moment. But leaving her here didn’t seem right either. Rubbing his chin, he contemplated recommending her to Meng House Village nearby.

However, he had duties to attend to.

“Firstly, I want to clarify, this alien creature has nothing to do with me. We temporarily stationed in the chemical factory for a mission. Whatever’s happening there isn’t related to us…”

“Yes, I understand…” Meng Meng didn’t dare to interrupt, nodding in agreement to whatever Zhao Yu said.

“Good.”

“I can take you to another settlement. But if you talk out of turn, even if you flee to the ends of the earth, I will hunt you down.”

This threat visibly startled Meng Meng, who hastily assured that she would keep all events, including the encounter with the alien, to herself.

Zhao Yu was left with no choice; their suspicious appearances, military attire, and their stint at the chemical plant coinciding with the emergence of the parasitic creatures, made them look like culprits.

Only after ensuring Meng Meng’s discretion did Zhao Yu resume his journey back to the base.

On this expedition, four soldiers were lost – a better outcome than Zhao Yu had anticipated. If there was another mission to kill aliens in the future, he knew how to proceed..
