The sudden firepower attack not only alerted Zhao Guofeng and the others to the existence of an invisible warship, but it also alarmed the enemy and made a call. As soon as he picked up the phone, the commander-in-chief of the foreign warship, Hest, immediately questioned Matsushita. “Matsushita, what the hell are you doing? The Sakakyo has been out of range of surveillance. This is your last trump card in this battle. Why are you suddenly firing missiles at Island 4? Your location has been exposed. Fighters will be coming in a few minutes. How did you become the commander of a warship when you were so stupid?”
Matsushita immediately felt his scalp tighten. Just as he was thinking about how to explain, fortunately, Merrick quickly snatched the phone away from him. “Hest, I’m Merrick, the genetic consultant sent by the Chi You Genetic Research Institute to Sakura.”
After hearing the words ‘Chi You Genetic Research Institute’, Hest’s attitude clearly changed a lot. Even his tone softened. Although no one in the world mentioned it, the various countries actually had a tacit understanding. The main reason why they could push open the door to genetic research was because of the secret research institute overseas.
Therefore, Hest was much more polite to Merrick. “Mr. Merrick, Commander Matsushita made a very bad decision. We don’t want to confront each other head-on. It’s irrational. The location of the Sakakyo had been exposed, which meant that all our previous plans had been disrupted. I need an explanation, or our warship will return immediately!”
Merrick clearly had an excuse for the agitated Hest. Therefore, at this moment, his tone was still calm. He looked in the direction of Island No. 4 and said solemnly, “Hest, it was my idea to launch missiles at Island 4. Furthermore, there will be several missiles aimed at Island 4.”
“Why? I don’t understand. According to our investigation, there are no troops stationed on Island 4. Even if you want to launch a missile, it should be aimed at Island No. 1. Why do you have to be obsessed with an uninhabited island?”
“Hest, because just now, we were surprised to discover that there was a person on Island 4. This person was none other than the famous Su Yun from a few years ago. We have very good reason to suspect that this person is probably the only person in the world who is currently naturally genetically mutated.
“We can’t evaluate this person’s strength now because in this genetic mutation state, this person’s strength might change continuously. It was worth noting that there was a white monkey beside this person. The genetic beasts we sent to the island just now were actually not a match for this white monkey. In just a few minutes, the shore was filled with the corpses of genetic beasts.
“Therefore, I have reason to suspect that the white monkey should be a genetic beast of a 03 series that the East is researching on. From the looks of it, there was only one white monkey moving around on the shore. It was very likely that they had not created a large number of 03 series genetic beasts yet.
“Therefore, the white monkey had to die, including Su Yun. Although this person hasn’t attacked yet, after these few years, he might be even stronger than before.”
“What?” Hest was indeed surprised at this moment. He asked in disbelief, “Didn’t they announce to the public a year ago that they would stop their genetic experiments and switch to the so-called mechanical path? In that case, how could they have a 03 series genetic beast? We have only just perfected the 02 series gene sequence and are currently solving the 03 series problem. How could they have such advanced technology? They shouldn’t have your help behind them, right?”
Merrick sighed deeply. “This is also a question in my heart. I’m very sure that our research institute didn’t provide them with any technical support. However, the original gene originated from the Chi You Bone in the eastern ancient tomb. It was very likely that they had developed and perfected the genetic potion after discovering other Chi You’s bones. Declaring to the public that the genetic experiment was terminated might very well be a smokescreen. Didn’t we indeed fall for it?”
Hest finally realized the seriousness of the problem. This meant that the world had underestimated this ancient country in recent years. Even if only one 03 series genetic beast appeared, it meant that genetic research far surpassed that of other countries. No one knew how many trump cards were hidden behind this.
Among all the organisms in the gene series, there was an iron law that many national scientists had concluded. Although it was just a series of numbers, there was an insurmountable ditch hidden in it.
A 02 series geneticist could easily defeat more than ten 01 series geneticists. And a 03 series geneticist would be double of that, or even more. There was no exception.
Hest finally understood why Merrick did not hesitate to expose the location of the invisible warship to bombard the uninhabited island. This was because as long as such a series 03 genetic beast existed, all the genetic beasts they currently had would not be able to play any role in this battle.
