Chapter 161: Cave

The appearance of Mutant Beasts was a disaster and an opportunity for humanity.

It was precisely because of the Mutant Beasts that humans could embark on the path of transcendence and become powerful Transcendents, instead of living their lives as ordinary people as they did before.

So, what will the appearance of these extraterrestrial beings bring to humanity?

"Where do they come from?"

"He didn't say, no matter what torture we use, he won't speak. Even when some Transcendents with special abilities tried, it was still ineffective. He seems to have a natural resistance to these things."

Su Chen frowned slightly. Just then, the voice of the System sounded: "The side quest is triggered. Find the source of the Bug Mutants and eliminate it within seven days. Upon completion, you will be rewarded with a chance to draw a Red Alert unit and a random super weapon use opportunity. If you fail, the energy production of all units will be reduced by 50% for a month."

Su Chen didn't lack the opportunity to use super weapons now, but being able to draw a unit from Red Alert was quite attractive to him.

According to the game's settings, the weapons in Red Alert were relatively conventional, but some of them had some sci-fi elements.

Mechs!

This was the signature weapon in Red Alert. Su Chen had long wanted to try out the strength of mechs, but his current permissions were not enough to build units from Red Alert. He didn't expect the System to give him an opportunity so soon.

"They are not humans, but Bug Mutants? They can transform into humans, no wonder they can survive in this universe." Su Chen shook his head.

It wouldn't be easy to find the source of these Bug Mutants and eliminate it within seven days.

After all, he didn't know how these Bug Mutants came into being or where they came from.

"Can't you give me more time? Seven days is too short." Su Chen asked.

The System was very cold and didn't say a word.

Su Chen knew that asking for more time was futile, so he opened the satellite interface, hoping to find something there.

The map still showed nearly twenty black dots, which should be giant eggs.

But if one of those black dots was the source of the giant eggs...

Su Chen thought of this and smiled. It was time for the paratroopers to take the stage.

Paratroopers were useless in the ocean, so Su Chen chose black dots on land and summoned paratroopers to confirm whether there were any places that were not giant eggs.

If a black dot did not have a giant egg, then it was very likely that it was related to the source of the giant eggs.

There were only five black dots on land, and these five places were quite hidden. Only Su Chen with the map could easily locate them.

Despite all the Eighth-Order Mutant Beasts searching, five of them could not be found, and they all thought that the giant eggs were gone.

Five teams of paratroopers landed near the black dots. There were no other Mutant Beasts there, only harsh environments.

These were not a problem for the Red Alert soldiers, who could cross mountains and valleys and do anything!

Finally, the captain of one of the paratrooper teams reported that they had found a giant egg in each of the four black dots, but in the remaining black dot, the captain reported that they had found a giant cave underground and no trace of a giant egg.

Su Chen was almost certain that this cave was the source of the giant eggs!

"I see, it's more than ten thousand kilometers away from the main base, so far away." Su Chen couldn't help but complain.

If he set out from here to the location of the black dots, there might not be much time left in seven days.

At this moment, Su Chen suddenly remembered that he had sent out a Mobile Construction Vehicle.

When Lizard Dragon was dispatched, it seemed that the direction it was heading was towards this giant hole.

Su Chen observed and realized that the location Lizard Dragon was heading to was actually much closer than the destination he had originally planned, which was thousands of miles away.

Sure enough, two hours later, Lizard Dragon arrived at the designated location, which was relatively close to a level two Base City, only about a hundred kilometers away.

"MCV (Mobile Construction Vehicle), deploy."

As usual, Su Chen began building various necessary structures after the MCV was deployed, and all five super units were summoned back by Su Chen.

Using his level 6 authority, all six of them teleported directly to the newly established sub-base. When Lizard Dragon saw Su Chen, it knelt down respectfully and said, "Greetings, master."

"Well, you should all know about this mission. Destroy the source of the giant egg, so I've decided to use the Chronosphere this time!"

Su Chen couldn't be sure what would appear inside the giant hole, so a massive army was necessary. If there were a large number of enemies, an army was the most effective means of destruction. His five super units alone were not all-powerful.

Su Chen had studied the teleportation range of the Chronosphere and found that it could teleport to almost any location on Earth, and could transport around 10,000 unit quantities at a time.

This referred to the number of military units that could be transported. If it was tanks, aircraft, and so on, the number would be doubled, one unit would be equivalent to two.

Su Chen decided that half of the units transported this time would be military units, and the other half would be powerful weapons. Su Chen specifically chose his favorite Apocalypse Tank and Kirov Airship, as well as some smaller weapons.

Su Chen attached great importance to this mission.

After assembling, the team lined up in a square formation on the open ground. With a wave of his hand, a translucent film appeared on everyone's body, and in a flash, everyone and the weapons within the film disappeared.

At the same time, a huge army appeared in another location.

"Paratrooper Squad Five, report to Commander!" The paratroopers that were sent in advance to scout the area shouted.

"Well, return to the team."

"Yes, sir!"

Su Chen did not continue to summon paratroopers, as their highest strength was only at the pinnacle of the fourth rank, and they would not be very useful here.

Only when he saw it with his own eyes did Su Chen realize how exaggerated the giant hole was. A piece of ground in front of him had an extra hole with a diameter of one kilometer, which was pitted and uneven all the way down, making it impossible to see what was below.

"That's right, the black spot is here." Su Chen confirmed again, and it must be here.

Su Chen was very cautious. He sent a hundred Red Alert Soldiers, fifty Hounds, and ten Beastmen as a vanguard, followed by Magnetron Troopers, Radiation Troopers, Snipers, and finally a Chrono Legionnaire to lead the charge.

Su Chen felt that this lineup was definitely luxurious.
