Chapter 205: Experiment (Bonus)
Risa and Sasha released their Ena. They were so disturbed by the sight that their energy became unstable.
Yin Zhen gasped as he couldn\'t help but say, "This is even worse than the Demonic Cult…"
What was hidden inside this cave was actually a facility.
They were actually located in the elevated position. If they climbed down the stairs to their right, they would be greeted by a mountain of human corpses. Some had been reduced to skeletons, while some were half rotten. The pungent smell coming from them was the one making Nathan and Selena feel nauseous.
If they managed to pass this mountain of corpses, they would be greeted with even more corpses. This time, the corpses were hung on the wall.
If it was a normal corpse, Nathan and Selena might not be as affected. But the first corpse couldn\'t be said to be a human anymore.
Its right leg had been replaced by a much bigger leg that could only be found in an alien. His left leg and right arm remained intact, but his left arm, specifically the lower arm, had actually burst out.
Multiple tentacles were emerging from this arm. They were replacing the flesh and sticking to the bone.
Its entire stomach looked like it had burst from the inside. There were sharp teeth all around the holes. More importantly, it was still pulsing as if they were still alive.
The back of its head had exploded, leaving behind a deformed head.
Its condition was much worse than the corpses he had seen on the front line.
And there were at least thirty corpses with similar conditions across the wall on the right.
In the middle of this cave, specifically underneath the huge chandelier that illuminated the entire place with green light, he found several big tables.
On each table, the human bodies were strapped onto the tables. More importantly, their bodies were convulsing, but their eyes had lost their focus. Some parts of their bodies had transformed. It was as if they were still in the middle of the transformation before turning to the corpses on the wall.
Blood, flesh, and body parts scattered all over the floor.
"Are they conducting an experiment here? But they look like…" Selena\'s voice was shaking. She looked like she was about to collapse.
Nathan gulped down. "Yes. I\'m afraid it is as you think. They\'re similar to the aliens we fought on the front line."
"Then, does this mean they\'re conducting the experience to find out about the truth, or does this mean those aliens are actually artificially created?" Selena gasped.
The answer could be found on the left side of the cave.
There were actually several humans getting imprisoned. They looked like they were lying on the floor, but Nathan couldn\'t confirm whether they had died or were just sleeping.
"Anubis." Nathan pointed at them.
Instead of Anubis, Nidhogg was the one answering that question. "It\'s too late."
Anubis nodded. "Their souls are filled with anguish. They must have been tortured before they died."
"Who on earth does this kind of thing?" Fenrir raised his head. "I thought I have seen a fair share of cruelty, but even Gods and Goddesses won\'t stoop this low."
Yin Zhen sighed. "Even the demonic cult, who is using Gu to control their people, and even training them with the most brutal method, rarely experiments to this extent. This feels like what people from Blood Cult will do."
"Blood?" Risa frowned. "If there is a cult like that, I would probably exterminate them by myself."
Sasha nodded. "I can see no disease, but the curse coming from them is quite apparent. They have died in such a cruel place."
"What should we do? I think we should report this to the teachers and have them stop the event. We have to take care of this first. If the academy is the one doing it, it\'ll cause a lot of disturbance." Selena glanced at Nathan.
"True. Leaving the island to inform them will be hard, but if we can take out a student and force the teacher to come here to retrieve them, we can take that chance to inform them about this." Nathan nodded. "There are at least a hundred people here, so we have to let them know as soon as possible. At the very least, the principal is observing us from a distance, right?"
"True. I have challenged him, so he might hide in the ship."
"In that case, let\'s go back and inform them." Nathan nodded.
Once they turned around, Fenrir suddenly stopped them by saying, "Wait. I see a movement down there. It looks like a person in the prison is still alive."
"!!!"
…
In another corner of the island, a student was busy tweaking the leaves on top of their tent before he heard the hissing sound of the bush.
He casually turned around and saw his teammate.
"Oh. Mars! Are you done with your task…" The guy noticed that he didn\'t bring anything back with him. "What\'s wrong? You can\'t find anything?"
The guy stood up, looking a bit annoyed.
Mars simply walked toward him without saying anything. There was no change in his expression.
"Oi. Do you hear me?" The guy frowned, staring at his friend. If the other party didn\'t want to cooperate, he might have to think of a different plan.
However, Mars suddenly grabbed his mouth.
"!!!" He widened his eyes in shock. "What are you doing?"
He was confused as to why Mars suddenly acted this way. But his grip was strong enough to actually hurt his jaw.
"It hurts. Stop it at once. If you—!" He couldn\'t complete his sentence or even summon his familiars.
Something had entered his mouth and spread to both his body and brain. His eyes rolled back until only the white part could only be seen.
A small tentacle suddenly crawled out of his nose.
