Chapter 450 The Person Behind the Scenes
Elbert stood there, unfazed, watching everything with a cold detachment.
Robert said, "We just picked up a microwave signal. This guy had explosives in his brain that released a strong acid, completely destroying his body!"
"This method is similar to what the hacker Left Shoulder used, and Left Shoulder was modified by BioGen Innovations."
"So, the Apocalypse Association is connected to BioGen Innovations, too!"
"Too bad Bertrand died of fright because of you!"
Elbert shook his head slightly.
The Apocalypse Association was meticulous to an extreme!
Their methods were so mysterious and unpredictable, they almost completely blocked any information from leaking out!
Their leader was definitely not an ordinary person!
But there were still clues left behind!
Elbert looked up, gazing into the distance.
In the distance, something was faintly glowing on the ground!
It was a metal runway stretching for miles!
Long enough for a large aircraft to land!
The recent massive storm had exposed this runway, buried under the sand, to the sunlight!
Although the Apocalypse Association had built its base deep in the desert, making it nearly impossible for outsiders to find, they still needed supplies!
The runway was built for that purpose!
Elbert's face turned icy as he slowly walked towards the runway.
At the end of the runway was a massive metal door leading underground!
Made of alloy, it could withstand 99% of the missiles on the market!
And the entire runway was coated with radar-absorbing material.
It was truly impenetrable!
Elbert nodded, "This door is very sturdy."
In the next moment, Elbert stomped his foot, and the metal door twisted and broke, falling into the abyss below!
It was at least several hundred feet deep, pitch black, and bottomless!
Elbert leaped down!
Below, there was indeed a hidden world, a huge and brightly lit high-tech lab!
Elbert frowned.
He proceeded cautiously.
But even as he reached the center of the base, it was eerily quiet!
No one was there?
Elbert scanned the area carefully, his heart tightening!
He noticed pools of blood in the corners and behind the furniture!
Elbert instantly understood that these were the base's lab personnel!
They also had explosives in their brains, which detonated the moment he invaded, leaving him no chance to interrogate anyone!
Someone was silently controlling everything, with powerful technology, meticulous planning, and ruthless execution!
At that moment, the entire base suddenly flashed red lights, and a piercing alarm sounded!
"Base self-destruct sequence initiated."
"Countdown: 3...2..."
Elbert looked up sharply, pointing at a surveillance camera in the corner, and gritting his teeth, "I will kill you!"
A series of explosions followed, and the entire base was engulfed in flames. The intense explosions caused the underground structure to collapse instantly!
Everything crumbled, and the base was buried under tons of sand!
Veridiania border.
In the Tack Desert.
Another hidden underground lab!
The 'Magician' gently stroked his mustache, smiling as he looked at the experiment pod in front of him.
Inside the pod, a man who called himself 'Steven' was undergoing a high-risk transformation with a 99.9% chance of failure.
The 'Magician' squinted his eyes, "Let's see what the president sees in you."
Transformation progress: 82.3%...
Suddenly, Steven's body exploded inside the pod, turning into a mess of flesh that splattered all over the observation window.
The 'Magician' shrugged, "Dead?"
Personnel began cleaning the pod, removing the mess.
The 'Magician' sighed, "Next!"
Another man with vacant eyes and a dazed expression stepped forward, "I am Steven. I want revenge. I want my child back!"
The 'Magician' smirked, "Yeah, yeah, get in there!"
He glanced at the crowd of 'Stevens' in the distance, cursing, "When the hell will this end?"
Transformation progress: 35%!
Boom!
"Next!"
Ding...
Transformation progress: 41%!
Boom!
"Next!"
Four hours later.
The 'Magician' watched as piles of flesh were wheeled out of the lab.
He was quite bored.
He slowly put on a pair of leather gloves, snapped his fingers, and a black glove appeared, holding a cigarette, which it placed in his mouth.
He snapped his fingers again!
Another black glove appeared, holding a metal lighter, lighting his cigarette.
The 'Magician' took a deep, satisfied drag, exhaling smoke that formed a white dove before dissipating.
Ding...
The experiment pod's alert sounded again.
The 'Magician' instinctively covered his ears, waiting for the 'boom!'
Transformation progress: 100%!
The 'Magician' widened his eyes, seeing the transformation level displayed as: M!
"Not bad!"
"An M-level modified human?"
"The first of its kind!"
The 'Magician' was excited!
But then there was another loud noise!
It wasn't a body exploding!
It was the pod shattering!
Inside, the once scrawny 'Steven' had become muscular!
He exuded a powerful aura!
As the 'Magician' approached, 'Steven' suddenly roared, "I want revenge, and no one will stop me!"
In the next moment.
'Steven' shot out like a cannonball!
"Veridiania, Wavehaven!"
"I will get my child back!"
He roared, smashing through walls, and finally, at the elevator, he launched himself towards the surface!
With immense strength, he broke through all the security doors and disappeared into the vast desert!
The lab personnel were stunned, "He didn't have the mission device installed!"
One of them approached the 'Magician,' shouting, "Vice President, why didn't you stop him? You just let him go?"
The 'Magician' continued smoking, not intending to move.
"Why should I stop him?"
He raised an eyebrow, "The president may want to hide, but I don't! Let this guy go cause some chaos, maybe we'll get some unexpected results!"
"And."
The 'Magician' turned to the lab personnel, smiling, "Did you just yell at me?"
The lab worker's face turned pale, "No, sir."
"What do you mean, no?"
"Die!"
As the 'Magician' finished speaking, a black glove appeared out of thin air!
It twisted the lab worker's neck!
