Wasteland Hideout Upgrading From The Sewers Chapter 298

[ … words ]

Johnck Zoo, underground laboratory.

A crucial surgery was being prepared.

Bloodbone, the Executor of the Mechanical Vanguard Society, no longer looked anything like he did when he first appeared.

Of his four mechanical prosthetic limbs, only one arm remained; the other three were either damaged or melted.

Including his torso, which was also severely damaged.

But he was still alive, just unconscious.

“Signal interference maintained normally….. Target anesthesia status stable….. Target stress program locked….. Control chip location locked……”

In the monitoring room outside the laboratory’s glass wall.

The Saint, Miller, and Mona were all here, watching the live broadcast of this surgery.

“Zoe, thanks to your timely reminder, otherwise we really wouldn’t have focused on this control chip right away!”

“Teacher, it was just a sudden inspiration on my part. It was still Teacher who acted swiftly, resolving this hidden danger immediately.”

Inside the laboratory, a researcher had already activated a laser cutting instrument and began cutting into Bloodbone’s skull.

In Mona’s mind, Yu Yuan asked her:

“Do you think this control chip can be removed?”

“It should be fine. These technicians often perform surgeries and dissections, they have rich experience. Moreover, they also control mutated creatures through chips, their methods are identical to the Mechanical Vanguard Society’s. Now that the specific location of the control chip has been identified, the difficulty is greatly reduced.”

“The only possible consideration is that this chip is not only connected to Bloodbone’s brain tissue, but it also simultaneously controls the mechanical body. This could very likely bring some unexpected situations. However, the experimental team has considered and prepared for these situations as well, so there shouldn’t be any major problems.”

Listening to Mona’s analysis, Yu Yuan also gained some understanding of this surgery.

And because Mona had been spending time in the Genetic Modification Laboratory these past few days, whether she had business there or not, she had become somewhat familiar with the equipment here.

While watching the removal of the control chip, she introduced the names and functions of these instruments to Yu Yuan.

Yu Yuan heard several familiar names, all of which were precious instruments needed to build the [Genetic Modification Laboratory].

It had to be said, the abilities of these researchers from the Aurora Animal Assistance Association were truly remarkable.

It didn’t take long before Bloodbone’s mechanical skull was opened, revealing the brain tissue inside wrapped in a protective membrane.

The brain was immersed in a light blue artificial cerebrospinal fluid solution.

“Chip location sighted….”

The researcher’s voice sounded from the speaker, followed by a close-up image of Bloodbone’s brain appearing on the multimedia screen.

Within the brain, a polyhedral crystal appeared on the corpus callosum between the left and right cerebral hemispheres.

This crystal was tightly connected to the corpus callosum and was currently flashing with a slow red light.

“This is the control chip of the Mechanical Vanguard Society….”

Miller stared at that crystal, murmuring to himself.

“Their research in mechanics is truly impressive. Just this control chip alone already surpasses us by a lot.”

“Teacher, don’t worry. Now that this chip has fallen into our hands, I believe our own control chips can also be iterated quickly.”

Mona gently reassured him.

Miller nodded slightly.

“Yes, that’s right!”

After that, the experimental monitoring room fell into silence.

Only the occasional sound of keyboards and the voices of experimental operators reporting.

Two hours later, this control chip removal surgery was finally completed.

The process was relatively smooth, but this chip was connected to numerous neurons. Removing it intact required extreme care, which was why it took so long.

Looking at the surgical bed where the final cleanup was being performed, Miller also showed a smile.

“Now we can safely inquire about the intelligence regarding the Mechanical Vanguard Society……”

Yu Yuan exited the [Synchronization] state.

This control chip removal surgery made Yu Yuan truly understand the depth and strength of the Aurora Animal Assistance Association.

Although he had previously, relying on the advantage of information disparity, arranged things perfectly for the Aurora Animal Assistance Association twice.

But for the Aurora Animal Assistance Association, those two battles were hardly enough to inflict serious damage.

Their true depth lay in these researchers and technicians who mastered biological mutation technology.

Things like thugs and mutated creatures were merely peripheral, insignificant existences.

So what if mutated creatures died? At most, they would spend some time re-cultivating them.

Biological mutation technology was no longer a particularly complex matter for the Aurora Animal Assistance Association.

Time passed in waiting and contemplation, and Yu Yuan’s [Ceasefire Token] effect also disappeared accordingly.

[Ding… Player ID: Moss Cottage Shelter has used a ‘War Token’. An invasion war will be launched against you in one hour. Please prepare for battle.]

[Players entering the war period will have social and trade functions temporarily closed. Functions will be restored after the war ends.]

The anticipated invasion information appeared before Yu Yuan. When he saw the player ID name [Moss Cottage Shelter].

The corner of Yu Yuan’s mouth finally curled into a smile.

“As expected, you still haven’t given up! However, if you didn’t come soon, I wouldn’t have known how to deal with Hogg…..”

As this prompt appeared, the countdown to the war between the two had begun.

Yu Yuan immediately commenced the long-prepared operation.

First, he opened the Virtual Light Screen to check the current ranking of the Moss Cottage Shelter.

—739th.

It had actually risen by one rank again.

Then he opened [Civilization Management] — Civilization Focus — System.

His gaze fell on the [Cultural Integration Decree] on the second layer of the [Legal Code] focus.

Activating the second layer focus required consuming 10 Civilization Points. Yu Yuan currently had 111 Civilization Points left.

Without hesitation, he directly activated the [Cultural Integration Decree].

—[Cultural Integration Decree]

Function: After killing the leader of another civilization, you can choose to absorb that civilization into the Ten Thousand Nations Pact Civilization system. Civilization integration degree +20%.

Next, he opened [War] — the second layer of the [Expansionism] focus.

And activated the [Military Plunder] focus.

—[Military Plunder]

Function: Defeating other players or launching wars against player worlds increases all loot and resource gains by +20%.

Civilization Points -20, now at 91 points.

After that, Yu Yuan sent two messages to Carmen and Alpha.

After sending the messages, Yu Yuan slightly furrowed his brow.

“Moss Cottage’s ranking is so high, its strength is definitely not something Stag can compare to. Hogg might not be enough to deal with him…… Hogg must die this time, but even in death, he must die with value.”

Yu Yuan remembered something he had obtained before, and a plan came to mind.

He sent another message to Carmen.

Then, taking Mie Mie and Zhi Zhi, he left the shelter and headed in the direction of District 6.

Meanwhile, at the Black Shield Police Department, Carmen, who was inspecting the police station’s defenses, also opened the message sent by Yu Yuan.

The next moment, his eyelids twitched slightly. He turned his head and exchanged a glance with Alpha not far away. Both could see gravity and excitement in each other’s eyes.

“Er Xiao, you continue the inspection.”

“Yes, boss!”

Watching Carmen’s hurried departing figure, Er Xiao instinctively sensed that something major was happening.

In the distance, Alpha’s gaze also fell once again on that message in his field of vision.
