Zhu Shijiu never expected that he would meet his old enemy here.
While on a cruise ship at sea, Zhu Shijiu had encountered recruitment by the "National Special Resources Conservation Bureau". The person who recruited him was called Xue An. At that time, he still thought that Xue An and others were worth using, but later the "cruise ship bombing" incident happened, causing Zhu Shijiu to hate Xue An and others from then on.
Unexpectedly, he would meet prisoners from the same organization as Xue An here.
As he was sighing, Zhu Shijiu had already walked in front of the young man.
"What's your name, young man?"
At this moment, the boy felt a strong sense of oppression from the man in front of him. It was as fierce as a volcanic eruption, and as majestic as Mount Tai pressing down on his head.
But the moment Zhu Shijiu finished speaking, the oppressive feeling disappeared instantly, as if the oppressive feeling he felt was just an illusion. The young man raised his head and looked at Zhu Shijiu, secretly sweating in his heart. At that moment, he almost thought that the man in front of him was going to attack him.
"My name is Zhang Ci, from the National Chartered Resource Conservation Bureau..."
"Listen, kid, everyone here is here because they are defying the Black Soldier Organization. No one will care where you come from. Be brief when introducing yourself, understand?"
"Understood."
Zhang Ci looked at Zhu Shijiu timidly. He actually saw an aura similar to that of his leader in the man in front of him. Judging from his features, this man should not be much older than him.
Zhu Shijiu asked, "When were you arrested?"
"Almost half a month." Zhang Ci answered honestly.
"Half a month... Do you know Xue An?"
"Xue An?!" Zhang Ci didn't expect to hear this name from a black soldier. He immediately became excited. "He is the captain of the 11th Special Operations Team of our bureau! Do you know the captain?"
Zhu Shijiu suddenly laughed: "I just had a grudge against him."
Zhang Ci’s face froze instantly.
"Did you know that Xue An and his men once blew up a ship?"
Zhang Ci was stunned: "'Once upon a time'... Isn't that a month ago?"
This time it was Zhu Shijiu's turn to be in a trance. Yes, it felt like a long, long time had passed, so long that Zhu Shijiu almost forgot about it, but in fact, in the eyes of others, it only happened a month ago.
"Yes, Xue An blew up a ship a month ago, and I was on that ship."
Zhang Ci was so numb that this was a life-and-death feud.
Just when Zhang Ci was about to say something, Zhu Shijiu patted Zhang Ci on the shoulder and said, "But don't worry. Xue An and I have a grudge, but that doesn't mean I have a grudge against you. As long as you listen to me, I won't make things difficult for you."
Zhang Ci wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "Is that so? Then I will definitely obey you."
"That's good, but in order for me not to be tricked by you again, you should stay by my side from now on."
"… good."
Zhu Shijiu smiled, then turned around and returned to the front of the team, and Zhang Ci followed.
In fact, Zhu Shijiu did not let Zhang Ci follow him entirely because of his hatred for Xue An, but more because among all the people present, only Zhang Ci's beliefs had not been tortured and corrupted by the Black Soldier Organization.
The other test subjects claimed that they were sworn enemies of the Black Soldier Organization, but in fact, they were just trying to heal their bodies that were destroyed by the Black Soldier Organization. Old Wolf did not select the people he really wanted. Zhu Shijiu did not dare to trust all of these test subjects who were only for him. He would not be surprised if they were lured back by the Black Soldier Organization someday.
On the contrary, Zhang Ci had only been captured for half a month, and his hatred towards the Black Soldier Organization was at its peak.
"Captain, can I ask what exactly we should do now?" Zhang Ci asked, becoming a little bolder.
Zhu Shijiu asked without even turning his head: "Have you heard of 'insect man'?"
"Bug-men? I think I heard about them from the bureau. Are the Black Soldiers also researching them?"
Zhu Shijiu shook his head. As expected, the Resource Conservation Bureau was a natural plagiarist. No matter what the Black Soldier Organization was researching, they would copy it.
"The Black Soldier Organization once conducted research on this, but due to repeated failures, they were unable to develop qualified Zerg-men, so they gave up. This project was originally a cooperative project between the Black Soldier Organization and the United States. After the Black Soldier Organization gave up, the United States continued its research. After several years, the United States' Zerg-man technology had matured, and eventually we, the 'Rebels', obtained the core secrets of this technology."
When Zhu Shijiu was talking to Zhang Ci, he did not avoid the other experimental subjects. Some of the experimental subjects knew about the insect people, and some did not, but at this moment, they all showed shocked expressions on their faces.
"Captain, you... you mean, you have developed qualified insect people?!"
Zhang Ci asked this question on behalf of the other experimental subjects.
"No, it's not 'you', it's 'us'!" Zhu Shijiu stopped, took off the glove on his left hand, and looked at the twenty test subjects. "From the moment you chose to follow me, you have no way out. You and I will rise and fall together! We are doing something big that can save mankind."
After saying that, Zhu Shijiu raised his left hand, pulled down the mask, then put his thumb to his mouth and bit the tip of his thumb hard with his teeth!
There was a wound on his thumb that was bitten, and blood coagulated into beads and dripped out from the wound. Zhu Shijiu raised his left hand and let the blood drip from the wound to the ground.
"Come out, Misha." Zhu Shijiu said softly.
The next moment, a strong wind swept in!
A black shadow broke through the ground not far from where they could see, and came roaring with dirt and dust! The black shadow's powerful kinetic energy almost tore a sonic boom in the air! In an instant, before anyone could react, the black shadow had already stopped beside Zhu Shijiu.
"Alien insects?!"
All the experimental subjects were already on high alert before they could even see the true face of the black shadow. They raised their guns in panic and were shocked that their sixth sense didn't work at all.
"Don't be nervous, everyone."
Zhu Shijiu spoke to comfort the experimental subjects, and then looked at the girl who had gone from extremely active to extremely quiet and was standing beside him.
Under everyone's shocked gaze, Zhu Shijiu touched Misha's head and said, "Let me introduce this to you all. This is the insect girl Misha, who was developed after years of research by us rebels behind the backs of the Black Soldier Organization. Come, Misha, say hello to everyone."
The test subjects looked at the insect girl who had a human form and resembled a human little girl, but had antennae on her head and the same limbs as the alien insects. Their minds went blank, and some of the test subjects even suspected that they were dreaming.
But what made them feel even more like they were dreaming was that the insect girl spoke haltingly.
"Hello... I'm Misha."
WTF
Everyone was stunned.
Although Misha's pronunciation was quite unstandard and sounded unclear, her opening words gave everyone a big shock.
—The rebels actually developed insect-people that are intelligent and can talk!
