The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 427: Superweapon Blocked!

Chapter 427: Superweapon Blocked!

About 50 kilometers away from the newly built city, a large hole suddenly appeared.

Yes, it's that kind of collapsed hole. Soon after, a large number of Ghost Clan emerged from the hole. A preliminary estimate indicated that there were at least millions of them!

When Su Chen discovered these Ghost Clan on the map, the corner of his mouth twitched. Did the System calculate this?

The distance of 50 kilometers wasn't far. As long as the Ghost Clan sent some Soldiers to explore the surroundings, they would quickly discover this side's city. This meant that Su Chen needed to protect the people of Yan Yun Star from these Ghost Clan within seven days.

"TanyaJu Ling, have the Soldiers conduct the first wave of harassment in batches, and start building the defense system. I don't want to see a single person killed by the Ghost Clan, understood?"

"Yes, Commander."

After they left, Su Chen stared at the large hole, wondering how this had happened.

He knew that the Ghost Clan had always lived underground, but that was tens of kilometers deep underground. If the Ghost Clan could easily create a path to the surface, they wouldn't have hidden underground for so long.

What frustrated Su Chen the most was that the Ghost Clan appeared precisely around his Base. Wasn't this forcing his hand?

"Should I use a Superweapon for some fun?" The idea popped into Su Chen's mind and lingered.

As the saying goes, the best offense is a good defense. Since the Ghost Clan didn't know about his Base yet, he could strike first, potentially wiping out a large portion of the Ghost Clan. If lucky, he might even annihilate the entire enemy force.

"Let's not send the Soldiers out just yet. I'll give them a special gift first." Su Chen's lips curled upwards.

According to Su Chen's thinking, using a nuclear bomb would be the most straightforward, or perhaps Thunderstorm. But then he considered something. The number of Soldiers he had here was too small; they were prime material. Turning them into Beastmen might be an even better idea.

Superweapon gene mutation, prepare for use!

In that instant, the powerful Ghost Clan experts located 50 kilometers away suddenly felt a sense of foreboding, as if a dangerous event was about to occur.

"Ghost Master, I have a bad feeling, as if we're about to face danger soon," an eighth-order Ghost Clan said to an elderly Ghost Clan sitting in a chair.

The elderly Ghost Clan had a white beard, sagging skin like tree bark, full of crevices. His half-opened eyes seemed tired.

"Eighth-order experts can have a sort of premonition about their danger. If your feeling isn't mistaken, we should have attracted attention," said the elderly Ghost Master.

The eighth-order Ghost Clan's face changed. "Ghost Master, should we disperse immediately? Gathering like this, won't we be vulnerable to the powerful weapons of the humans?"

As an eighth-order Ghost Clan, he was confident in his own strength. He could withstand even large weapons. But his subordinates were different.

They hadn't come to the surface easily; they didn't want heavy casualties as soon as they emerged. It didn't align with their purpose.

Just as the eighth-order Ghost Clan was about to say something, a strong crisis emerged. At the same time, he sensed a strange sound around him, a hissing...

"Exchange five years of my life for peak power once!"

Hearing this, the eighth-order Ghost Clan widened his eyes. "Ghost Master, your body can't handle it anymore. You can't keep consuming your life!"

"Hehe, this old bones can still hold up. I can feel that this power seems to cause some change in our bodies. It must be stopped."

With that, the elderly Ghost Master, who had been on the brink of death, suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood. Then, an invisible film spread out from him, covering all the surrounding Ghost Clan, with him at the center.

The hissing sound persisted, and some Ghost Clan emitted cries of pain. Many protrusions appeared on his body, as if something was about to burst out from within him.

Splat!

With a strange sound, this Ghost Clan's body underwent a massive transformation, turning into... Beastmen!

Not just one Ghost Clan, but many were transforming into Beastmen. The gene mutation was so powerful that it forced them to become Beastmen, regardless of their original race.

The difference was that Beastmen born from the bodies of Ghost Clan had even stronger physiques.

In the end, the effect of the gene mutator ended, but not all of the Ghost Clan had become Beastmen. Only less than a quarter had truly transformed!

"Huh, it actually managed to resist the power of the gene mutationt?" Su Chen was somewhat surprised.

He thought that most of the Ghost Clan on the other side would become Beastmen when he unleashed this move, but he miscalculated.

The source of this was the elderly Ghost Master, an individual who could use such powerful power. It was hard to believe.

"Can the power of the gene mutation be countered too?" Su Chen asked the System.

"Any power has its countermeasures. The power of the gene mutation isn't something out of thin air. If it encounters the same type of power, it can be countered as well," explained the System.

Su Chen nodded. He had several Superweapons at his disposal. Since the gene mutation failed, he had others. But before that, the Beastmen had to be put to good use. Letting them go to waste would be a shame.

"Right, Beastmen can apparently use Burst cultivation. They can be used as disposable Weapons."

These Beastmen had been transformed by the gene mutation. In terms of true strength, they couldn't compare to the Beastmen produced by his Base, but Su Chen wasn't concerned.

Reducing the number of Ghost Clan Soldiers as much as possible was worth even sacrificing all of the Beastmen.

Under Su Chen's command, all the Beastmen instantly underwent Burst cultivation, killing many Ghost Clan who hadn't yet recovered their senses. The Ghost Clan's army was instantly thrown into chaos.

"What's going on? What are those things?" An eighth-order Ghost Clan appeared and shouted loudly.

"King, those guys used to be our comrades, but it seems like they've lost their memories and are attacking us." A Ghost Clan reported.

The eighth-order Ghost Clan surveyed the scene. There were still many big figures, and Ghost Clan were dying every second.

The eighth-order Ghost Clan's expression grew dark. "Kill them all!"

As the king of these Ghost Clan, he knew very well that if he didn't go all out to kill them, even more Ghost Clan would die.

As the Beastmen acted, Su Chen was considering which Superweapon to use next. But at that moment, the System's voice suddenly sounded, "Inform the master that for the first-tier mission, the Superweapon can only be used once. If used a second time, the mission will be considered a failure."

Su Chen: "???" (To be continued...)
