Chapter 350: The End
Chapter 350: The End
It was as if countless blood-red long worms had grown out of Jennifer’s body. Each of these long worms was dozens of centimeters long and it took almost just the blink of an eye to cover Jennifer’s body!
As everyone watched on in terror, Jennifer had turned into a monster made of endless flesh and blood!
With a soft deflating sound, Jennifer seemed to melt and slumped to the ground. At the same time, the flesh and blood all over her body spread out in all directions like tentacles. Fisher’s reaction was the fastest. When she began to mutate, he had backed away. By the time she became a monster, he had withdrawn five or six meters away.
One must say that Fisher had a very high intuition for danger. In the next second, the monster suddenly ejected two tentacles. The two subordinates beside Fisher could not dodge in time and were directly ensnared by the tentacles!
Seeing this scene, Fisher’s heart turned to ice. Without thinking, he turned around and fled. Still, he noticed that several other cursed volunteers behind him also began to shudder and then endless flesh and blood surged from their facial features and wounds. Their entire body was completely transformed into a mass of flesh and blood without a shape!
“Run, quickly run!”
“Save me!”
“Agh, d*mn it, I was caught...”
The once-safe zone seemed to be turned into a hell on earth and screams were ringing in Fisher’s ears. He had exhausted all his strength by the time he crawled into the jungle.
After escaping into the jungle, Fisher looked behind him in shock but saw that on the ground of the safe zone, the infected group had all turned into a pool of flesh and blood. These substances continued to wriggle on the ground, seemingly fused like a fluid as they spread in all directions at the same time...
Those who were caught were incessantly crying for help in the heap of flesh and blood, but this strange substance seemed to have some kind of extreme peculiar power. It directly enveloped them and was still slowly digesting them.
“Could the end of the world be upon us...”
Fisher stared at all of this blankly, but at this moment, he suddenly felt a chill in his back and a heart-piercing agony suddenly struck him!
Fisher turned his head subconsciously, only to see that Jennifer’s sister was standing behind him with a malevolent look. She was holding a sharp flint knife in her hand, the blade of which was red with blood.
“This is for my dear sister...”
Her cold words sounded in his ears but Fisher found that when he was dying, he did not have much fear and instead was overcome by a sense of relief.
Perhaps this world was ending...
Fisher only had time to twitch the corner of his mouth, revealing a wry smile, and then his eyes turned darker. Finally, he had completely lost consciousness...
One day, two days, three days...
Three days later, on the Blacklight which was moored ten kilometers away from the island, Chen Chen looked at the experimental island with a hint of solemnity.
The lush island was once full of emerald green mountains and completely covered by vegetation. However, at this time, most of the island had turned red.
This was a horrifying bright red as if the entire island was covered in a layer of flesh and blood. Looking from a distance, it was an eerie bloody sight.
Even from ten kilometers away, Chen Chen could smell, through the scent of seawater, the stench that was unique to flesh and blood.
Moreover, that patch of flesh and blood was still growing endlessly as if it wanted to cover every inch of the island...
“Sir Godfather.”
When Chen Chen was observing the island, Little X’s voice suddenly came from the speakers behind him. “We’ve sent a Black Knight to the island. After testing, we’ve learned that flames can cause damage to this patch of flesh and blood and this patch also cannot grow in water.”
“That’s good news.”
Chen Chen said without looking back, “If this is the case, then send someone to collect a small sample of the flesh patch. After the collection is completed, the entire island will be burned to prevent this thing from spreading.”
“Understood... By the way, Sir Godfather, there has also been a message from Yoru Kamidera. They’ve thoroughly researched the patch of flesh and blood and now they’re also requesting to return.”
Little X continued to report.
“There are no issues with them?” Chen Chen did not immediately agree but turned to ask.
“No issues. Everything is under the control of X-112. Although X-112 is still unable to control memetic effects, a little interference is still doable. If these people are infected with memes, X-112 will know.”
“I can be rest assured then.”
Chen Chen nodded. “Then bring that group back. By the way, ask Yoru Kamidera and X-112 to jointly prepare a complete report for me.”
“Yes.”
...
When Samuel and the others carefully exited the underground laboratory under the escort of the Black Knights, they immediately saw a dense blanket of flesh and blood on the top of the mountain.
This mass of flesh had turned into a blanket of vegetation-like fungus, covering the ground’s surface and wriggling regularly as if breathing.
When Samuel stepped on this fungal spread, he only felt a softness under his feet, like stepping on an endless stretch of internal organs. It was a very disgusting feeling...
“Don’t worry. Under the control of X-112, these things will not attack us.”
Yoru Kamidera followed out from behind, looking at the blanket of flesh and blood, and could not help looking rueful. “This time, we hit the jackpot. With only 500 lives, we fully observed the mutation process of the memetic effect. Believe me, this experiment will greatly help Blacklight Biotechnology and X-112 in studying memes...”
As he spoke, Yoru Kamidera walked straight to the jungle ahead, only to see trees and branches covered in a shroud of flesh and blood.
In other words, this flesh and blood patch not only captured humans and absorbed nutrients from the soil, but could also digest and absorb plants...
“Is this mutation random? Or is it controlled by this artificial intelligence?”
Samuel asked.
“Of course, it’s random. X-112 is like a human being, it can only learn from scratch.”
Yoru Kamidera walked to the spire and stretched out his hand to pat it. Over the entire island, only its surface was still smooth, and no flesh and blood could attach to the spiral tower.
“If this carpet of flesh and blood was given a few years, wouldn’t the entire Earth be completely swallowed by it?”
Someone suggested this in a soft voice and everyone was secretly shocked at once.
Samuel and the other researchers had nothing to say, but trod cautiously on the endless blanket of flesh and blood, lest it attacked them.
After all, when they were in the laboratory, they could see how these blankets of flesh and blood had attacked humans.
About ten minutes later, the Mi-26 transport helicopter flew over from the Blacklight and stopped at the top of the mountain.
When the helicopter took off again, it carried away everyone on the island and the Gantz server.
After waiting for the helicopter to fly far away, several other helicopters took off from the Blacklight and dumped a large amount of fuel on the island. A few hours later, the entire island began to burn.
In the end, the massive patch of flesh and blood on the island was reduced to a 100-meter-thick plume of smoke in the blaze. Everything was burned to a crisp, completely burying all traces of the experiment here...
