Star Abyss Walker

Chapter 236 Modifying the Spinner Butcher

He quickly took out a silencer and attached it to the Winter AMR. Then he aimed at the head of one of the sentries and fired four shots. With a series of soft "thuds," the man fell silently from the tree. He died so quickly that he didn't even have time to scream.

Then, he took out a sentry on the left with four more shots, quickly put the sniper rifle into his storage space, switched to the explosive gun, and then flew forward!

In the air, searchlights from the base kept sweeping across. When I was only about a hundred meters away from the base, I crouched down and came to the tree, found the sentry's body, took off his Dark Tide military uniform jacket and put it on. Then I looked at his equipment. It was all white. No point. I don't want it!

"296! 296! How's it going on your end?"

Voices came through the walkie-talkie next to the body.

"everything is normal."

I replied, not knowing if the other person could hear the difference in my voice, and then, carrying the bomb gun, I casually swiped my access card and walked into the Dark Tide Base.

……

"296!"

In the duty room at the base, a sergeant joked, "Why are you back so soon? Weren't you supposed to be on duty until 3 a.m.? Be careful your captain spanks you!"

I gave an awkward smile, lowered my head, and walked into the base.

"Wait, 296!"

The other person suddenly opened the door to the duty room and walked in, smiling, "Why do you look a little off today?"

He grabbed my shoulder and turned me around, revealing a different face under the light.

"You look kind of handsome today, don't you?"

I grinned and swung my power sword horizontally with my right hand. With a soft "crack," I severed the opponent's head from his neck, achieving an instant kill. Even though the opponent was an elite with 10,000 HP, he was still killed in one strike!

"Snapped!"

With his left hand he grabbed the head that was rolling in the air, and with his right hand he grabbed the other person's arm and quickly pulled him into the duty room.

After that, probably because it was late at night, no one noticed this place, and no alarms sounded in the base.

After stuffing the sergeant's body into the desk, I sat in his seat and started using the computer in the duty room to query data, but I was told I didn't have enough permissions.

No problem, crack it!

Using his vast knowledge of programming and networking, he quickly breached the firewall, cracked the program, and then accessed the specific data in the base's laboratory.

Search, Irelia, appeared!
She was being held in room 042 of the base, so she took the sergeant's key card and left the duty room.

Swipe your card to officially enter the base's internal buildings.

"296, what are you doing at the base today?" Suddenly, someone on my left, carrying a pizza, walked over and looked at me, saying, "Wait... you're not 296, who are you?!"

This was a lieutenant. Before he could even shout, his throat was slit by a sword, and he fell straight down!

I couldn't be bothered with anything else, so I activated my bio-optical invisibility skill and instantly disappeared into the air, heading straight for room 042!

"Hiss..."

As I passed by rooms 038 and 039, I heard strange voices coming from inside the iron gate.

Looking through the bulletproof glass, two figures were crawling on the ground. One had mutated into a Devourer, and the other into a Crawler. Both were relatively weak mutants, suggesting that the two test subjects had failed and would soon be disposed of.

"Shh!"

In one swift step, he rushed to the front of room 042. It was more like a cage than a room, as an extremely strong stench emanated from it!
No key? No problem!
The Wind Chaser flashed past like lightning, splitting the room's door lock system in two. The moment he kicked the door open, the scene before me left me stunned.

The empty room didn't have Irelia. Instead, there was a huge, hunched figure roaring at me, its hideous head instantly splitting into terrifying mouthparts.

The purple BOSS is actually a Tier 3 mutant splitter!
'Holy crap, we're doomed...'

I was dumbfounded. I never imagined that Irelia would mutate into a Split after being injected with Pandora's Solution!
It's over, it's over!

But the next second, I suddenly felt a chill. Something was wrong; this splitter didn't seem to be Irelia...

after all……

When I looked down, I saw something swaying back and forth between the splitter's groin.

Could it be...

I started to let my imagination run wild. Irelia, who was injected with the mysterious solution, not only mutated into a different species, but her sex chromosomes also mutated, turning her into a man?!

Oh my god, my poor Irelia...

The next moment, the splitter let out a long howl and pounced!

I quickly dodged, simultaneously unleashing a flurry of attacks with my power sword, a relentless combo that sliced ​​through flesh bit by bit, leaving the opponent's thick arm in pieces, damage numbers piling up—

"8783!" "17282!"

"9001"

"22714!
"10028!"

……

The damage numbers are quite considerable, but it's impossible to achieve rule-breaking effects like critical hits or decapitations in a short period of time.

After all, high-level mutants are quite large, with their bulky bodies often having a radius of several meters, while my power sword is only 0.8 meters long, making it impossible to cut through them and thus unable to inflict serious damage.

This is where a drawback of using a power sword becomes apparent.

Aside from humanoid units, when encountering larger alien species, spirits, insects, etc., you may need to slowly inflict damage, and it is basically very difficult to deal damage such as severing limbs or decapitating them.

"Hiss~~~"

The splitter roared, its mouthparts flailing wildly.

"I'm so sorry, Irelia!"

I continued to swing my sword wildly, and after completing a full combo, the opponent's health bar was almost depleted. So I switched to the UZI and fired a barrage of bullets into the opponent's wounds, killing him instantly!

Just then, alarms sounded throughout the entire base; the operation had been exposed!
Without thinking, I turned around, raised my power sword, and "snap snap snap snap" cut a large hole in the wall. Outside was the base's open plaza. So I leaped up, grabbed my power sword, and ran off into the distance!

At this moment, a large number of helicopters had taken off into the sky above the square, and a deep, angry voice echoed in the air:

"I am Howard, the base leader! That damned traitor 033 has infiltrated the base. Immediately concentrate all forces and kill 033! Remember, orders from above: no survivors, kill 033! I repeat: leave no survivors, kill him!"

How cruel!
Several helicopters loomed overhead, heavy firepower swirling on both sides, unleashing a deafening barrage. In an instant, I felt the excruciating pain of being pierced through the body, and my health bar plummeted.

"1661!"

"2001!"

"1899!"

"1913!"

As expected of a weapon mounted on an attack helicopter, even with my 1800+ armor, it couldn't completely block it; it hurt a lot!
He quickly drew his sword and moved in an S-shape, while at the same time, currents surged around his body, creating a bio-electromagnetic pulse!
"Shua~~~"

A deep blue pulse of energy spread out from my center, and the electronic systems of several helicopters in the air all failed. They circled in the air and eventually crashed into the base, bursting into flames!
"Hurry, catch up with 033!"

From another direction, several fuel-powered vehicles started up one by one, carrying the vanguard team members in pursuit.

Charged all the way to the steel wall of the base, the power sword was swung several times in an instant, cutting a large hole before it made a quick getaway. Behind it, a helicopter took off again in the distance, shining beams of light over it!
"033, you can't escape!"

The voice of base leader Howard came over the helicopter: "Surrender immediately, and we might spare your life; otherwise, you will be reduced to ashes!"

"Fuck you..."

I turned around abruptly, took out my RPG, aimed at it from a distance of several hundred meters, and with a "whoosh," a rocket shot off, trailing a long tail!

"Boom~~~"

In the air, the helicopter that took off from the west exploded in mid-air, quickly turning into a fireball and falling to the ground.

"033, you beast!"

Howard's voice rang out again over the wilderness: "Lock onto 033's aura as the target, immediately activate 'Nemesis II Plan,' and bring back 033's body fragments!"

"Yes, General!"

I frowned. What the hell is "Nemesis II Project"?
Just as I was wondering, a patch of wasteland not far away suddenly split open, and light pierced the darkness below. Then I heard the sound of a steel cage opening, and a familiar figure appeared in my field of vision.

It was a spine-spike butcher!
Sure enough, the Dark Tide Base was involved in the research of high-level alien species. They were actually able to create and control freaks like the Spinner Butcher. Unbelievable!

"Ho~~~"

In the wind, a deep blue light flashed in the eyes of the Spine Butcher, and the next moment it rushed over quickly, as fierce as a hunting dog that had sniffed a rag. It seems that Howard was not exaggerating. They really have the ability to transmit my aura data into the brain of a "fierce creature" like the Spine Butcher, and then turn the Spine Butcher into their dog.

The outline of the other-dimensional storage space flickered, and the next second I took out my beloved little motorcycle, quickly straddled it, started the engine, and disappeared into the fertile fields in the blink of an eye.

After speeding for about ten minutes, lights appeared on the distant horizon, and there were lights in all four directions. The nearby Dark Tide bases were densely packed, and it seemed that I was surrounded.

Go back; going back now is the safest option.

Not long after they left, a figure sped through the starry night in the distance. It was the modified Spinner Butcher, charging towards them with a fierce look on its face. An orange character swayed above its head, whip-like tentacles danced wildly behind it, and the rotating bone saw on its chest hummed as it charged forward with a menacing expression.

I hesitated for a moment. At this time, there was still no progress in the S-rank main quest, which meant that the splitter I killed was not Irelia. Well, there was nothing I could do. Now was not the time to retreat!
"Fuck you..."

He frowned, immediately put away his motorcycle, and brandished his gray longsword, which instantly flashed with a deep blue light. Since he couldn't get rid of it, he would deal with this vicious dog first!
