Chapter 348: #348 - Section 348

Although they knew about the successful development of Void Warriors, they didn't have the authority to make decisions. So, even though they had informed their countries about the Void Warriors, unfortunately, the United States acted too quickly.

After the Void Warrior experiment succeeded, the United States immediately dispatched troops from Guam. The entire Seventh Fleet came, and even a lieutenant general with real power arrived. The Seventh Fleet is a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleet. Japan, being a country located in the Pacific, and other European countries, even if they wanted to come, would need a very long time. Sure, they could fly over, but without an army, what's the use of just people arriving? The . directly sent the entire Seventh Fleet!

Therefore, even if other countries wanted to obtain the technology of the Void Warriors, there was no way, because the United States had the most troops stationed here, and Guam was also close. There was really no way around it.

So, in the days that followed, if they wanted to obtain Void Warriors, there would only be one way: to buy them from the United States.

According to the American way of doing business, they would definitely find a way to sell them to those European countries. After all, the money invested had to be repaid, just like the development of American fighter jets. During development, they used the name of joint multinational development to get money from other countries. In essence, those countries didn't contribute any technology, or rather, the United States didn't intend to let them truly participate. The United States only wanted other countries to pay, and the result of paying was only the eligibility to buy the successfully developed weapons from the United States.

As for whether other reasons would later cause the United States not to sell to them, that would be another matter. After all, the United States was very good at this kind of thing.

Unaffected, Wang Xiaoming began his further plans.

General Hatton was immediately placed under Wang Xiaoming's illusion on their first meeting. From that moment on, he, like Brigadier General Yang before him, became Wang Xiaoming's good friend. He would fully respect Wang Xiaoming's requests, as long as Wang Xiaoming didn't ask him to die, then he was fine.

After all, Wang Xiaoming only controlled him with a simple illusion. He didn't use the Four Heavenly Kings' terrifying control skills. The illusion was simple, but easy to use. That's right, simple and practical. It could be said to be extremely useful for dealing with ordinary people.

After Wang Xiaoming turned Inori, Gai, and Shu into Void Warriors, he didn't stop. He needed more Void Warriors!

So, he started the second round of experiments.

"Major Wang, I want to ask you, when can Void Warriors be mass-produced?"

In the office of the former Brigadier General Yang, now Lieutenant General Hatton, Hatton sat in his office chair, his hands clasped under his chin, and asked Wang Xiaoming with a gentle expression.

Wang Xiaoming smiled and pushed up his glasses.

"General, do you need stable Void Warriors, or the short-lived kind?"

"Oh? Is there a difference?"

"Currently, my research on the Void has entered a mature stage, but the mature stage of the Void Gene doesn't represent the mature stage of Void Warriors. I can maturely divide the Void into stable Void Genes and explosive Void Genes."

"Stable Void Genes, after being injected into the human body, will turn that person into a Void Warrior, but their abilities will be relatively weak in the early stages, just like Inori, Gai, and Shu now."

"Are their powers still considered weak?"

General Hatton naturally had to observe the abilities of Inori, Gai, and Shu after he arrived. After observing, he felt that the Void Warriors had great potential. If a special force composed of Void Warriors was formed, they would simply kill anyone who stood in their way. Apart from large-scale nuclear strikes or precise strikes with long-range ballistic missiles, there was simply no way to target them.

But such power was considered weak in Wang Xiaoming's eyes.

"That's right, their power is weak, because the awakening level of the Void Genes in their bodies is only 10%. As the awakening level of the Void Genes continues to increase, their power will continue to increase, so they are still weak now."

"Correspondingly, another segment is the explosive Void Gene. This Void Gene can allow an ordinary person to instantly possess the complete ability of the Void Gene, directly becoming the strongest Void Warrior, but because this gene is explosive, the injected person's body cannot quickly adapt to the Void Gene. Therefore, after using the Void Gene, although they obtain enough power, they will soon die because their bodies cannot adapt to the power of the Void Gene. This time is about an hour."

In fact, it was directly giving people 50% of the Void Gene. That person would obtain the power of the Void, but would also immediately enter an uncontrollable state of passively absorbing the Apocalypse Virus. When the Apocalypse Virus in the body was fully absorbed, that person would become a complete carrier of the Apocalypse Virus, turn into a purple crystal, and then dissipate with the wind.

"I see."

General Hatton couldn't help but nod, a satisfied smile on his face.

"Prepare some safe Void Genes for our soldiers. As for those explosive Void Genes, prepare some for our allies."

"Oh? Which allies do you want to prepare them for?"

"Of course, those allies who are in the midst of war. If they want to turn the tide of the battle, this explosive Void Gene should also be a very, very good weapon for them. After all, sacrifice is inevitable in war, but if only one soldier is sacrificed to win a battle, I think they will absolutely love it."

"Indeed, for the victory of the war, this is a necessary sacrifice."

Wang Xiaoming also pushed up his glasses, revealing the same smile as a certain military strategist who liked to use his teammates as Noble Phantasms to blow up others.

"Then, I will prepare to arrange Void Genes for our soldiers."

"Although the Void Genes have been almost prepared by me, it still needs to be based on compatibility. I need all the soldiers to come here for testing. Only those who pass the test can be injected with Void Genes to become Void Warriors."

"No problem, just go ahead and do it."

719. Void Force Established

The compatibility of the Void Gene had already been solved by Wang Xiaoming. After injecting Inori, Gai, and Shu with Void Genes, Wang Xiaoming studied their body data and quickly solved the problem of common use by others.

Wang Xiaoming could use his nutrient solution to modify them, but he was too lazy to modify them. Strengthening those soldiers would not consume them quickly enough, and the efficiency was too low.

So Wang Xiaoming directly let these soldiers use Void Genes. Although they were not as good as those explosive Void Genes, which could turn into walking virus absorption devices immediately, the speed was at least twice as fast as Inori, Gai, and Shu.

Inori could probably fight eighty or ninety times before pushing the completion of the Void Gene to 50%, then these soldiers would probably complete thirty or so missions to push the completion of the Void Gene to 50%.

Therefore, their apparent power growth will be much faster than Inori and the others.

But no one can match Inori's final absorption ability, because Inori's Void is acceptance, which can accept all hearts. She is the biggest virus jar.

As for Wang Xiaoming's screening of those soldiers to Hatton, it was indeed screening. In order to maximize the role of these Void Warriors, Wang Xiaoming naturally had to screen them.

None of the well-behaved soldiers could pass. Those who liked to cause trouble, had violent personalities, and were the most diligent in missions were the targets Wang Xiaoming chose.

In the American army, there were quite a few of these characters, so Wang Xiaoming was not worried about the lack of people. In addition to Inori, the biggest virus jar, there were many small medicine jars, which could also play a small role before the big jar played a role.

So, those who violated military discipline the most in the army were all selected and became the first batch of Void Warriors.

The number of these Void Warriors was as high as 102, even exceeding the number of a certain girl group audition program.

All 102 of these people were rudely injected with Void Genes by Wang Xiaoming. Without Wang Xiaoming's enhanced and modified nutrient solution, the soldiers injected with Void Genes were in so much pain that they wanted to die, but Wang Xiaoming didn't care how much they hurt. Their boss, General Hatton, didn't care either. They were all brought by General Hatton to become Void Warriors. For General Hatton, they were experimental products that could be sacrificed at any time.

Therefore, it was useless for these soldiers to scream in pain. No one cared about them.

After they endured the pain, General Hatton had the researchers investigate their physical condition one by one. The data showed that their bodies had been improved to a small extent. Of course, the most important thing was that they had all obtained the power called Void.

These people materialized various silver-white weapons in their hands: daggers, machetes, hammers, battle axes, and even benches and chairs. The funniest one even had a grenade. The Void was a grenade. After pulling it open and throwing it out, it would explode, but after the explosion, he would fall down because of excessive use of power and would need several hours to recover.

Of course, after paying such a high price, his grenade was incredibly powerful. One grenade could directly blow up a basketball court.

Moreover, with the development of Void power, the power of his grenade would become stronger and stronger.

As for those daggers, machetes, and hammers, although they looked like ordinary weapons on the surface, each weapon had completely different abilities inside.

For example, the person holding the dagger had a relatively dark personality, so as long as he held the dagger, he could hide in the shadows and then launch a surprise attack on the enemy from the enemy's shadow.

As for those machetes and hammers, they also had their own uses. In particular, the one with the hammer could use the hammer to release lightning, which made Wang Xiaoming want to complain that he was the Norse God Thor for a while.

In short, these 102 people successfully became Void Warriors, and after becoming Void Warriors, the first wave of chaos began.

After these soldiers obtained the power of the Void, they naturally had to train, and during training, they naturally had to start fighting.

Especially since their relationship had already begun to stabilize before they obtained the power of the Void.

For example, if someone is ruthless enough to suppress others, they become the leader of the group.

But now, everyone has obtained different powers, and these newly acquired powers directly affect their power levels. Those at the bottom who have gained new power are beginning to want to rise, because they are no longer the same as before.

Thus, new conflicts began.

When these people trained, it was a free-for-all of revenge and settling grudges.

In short, it was a chaotic brawl from the start. Wang Xiaoming and Hatton watched from the side without any intention of stopping it, as long as no one died. As for anything else, even if someone was crippled, Wang Xiaoming could heal them.

The entire training ground was filled with fighting for a whole afternoon. In the end, only twelve people could still move, and only one person was standing while the rest were down.

The only person standing was appointed by Major General Hatton as the commander of the entire Void Force. The remaining person who performed the best was appointed as the commander's adjutant, and the remaining ten people were appointed as squad leaders, each leading a squad of ten people.

After all, the entire Void Force is made up of special individuals. If more than a hundred of these special individuals acted together, it would be a waste of combat power.

A squad of ten of these special combat forces is powerful enough. Rather than concentrating them together, it is better to disperse them, let an upper-level commander coordinate them, and then send several squads to different battlefields, which would be more effective.

Wang Xiaoming naturally agreed with this arrangement with both hands. What he wanted was for these people to spread out as widely as possible.

Thus, this batch of Void Warriors was dispatched one by one to begin their first mission.

Wang Xiaoming stayed at GHQ headquarters, waiting for these Void Warriors to bring him data feedback.

During this waiting period, he was not idle. Jiang Shenya and Ouma Shu were the main forces in absorbing the virus, but Major General Hatton did not value the combat power of these laymen, so he did not conscript them, but instead let them be Wang Xiaoming's experimental subjects, continuing to stay at GHQ.

Therefore, in order to prevent them from being idle, Wang Xiaoming began to provoke them to fight.

Fight, preferably until their brains are bashed out!

720. Void Warriors Need Suitable Opponents

Ouma Shu and Jiang Shenya are all Void Adapters by instinct, so the Void's erosion of them can be said to be the lowest. If you want to increase the Void's erosion in their bodies, you have to get them moving.

For example, create small frictions from time to time.

Because Ouma Shu and Jiang Shenya were Wang Xiaoming's initial experimental subjects, and they were not considered qualified soldiers, they were not sent by Major General Hatton to perform global missions, but continued to stay at GHQ headquarters.

And GHQ headquarters is almost the most suitable place for friction, such as the training ground where 102 Void Warriors almost had their brains bashed out.

With the idea of letting them train with each other, then get familiar with each other's abilities, and finally facilitate cooperation when fighting together, Wang Xiaoming let them fight each other.

Of course, Ouma Shu's Void offensive ability was insufficient, so Wang Xiaoming very considerately added a teammate to him, that is, Yuzuriha Inori. After all, Ouma Shu and Yuzuriha Inori are now in the same group, and since they are in the same group, then it is completely okay to come and chop Jiang Shenya together, isn't it?

Thus, Ouma Shu and Yuzuriha Inori began to cooperate. Ouma Shu always rushed to the front, and every time Jiang Shenya attacked, Ouma Shu would return to Yuzuriha Inori's front, raise his right hand, absorb Jiang Shenya's attack, and then Yuzuriha Inori would rush out from behind and give Jiang Shenya a slash.

This made Jiang Shenya very annoyed.

Because he found that his attack under the condition of hiding his strength could not break through Ouma Shu's defense at all, but he did not dare to expose all of his power, because he wanted to keep a trump card.

But if all his trump cards could not break through Ouma Shu's defense, then he would have no way to kill Ouma Shu and others who betrayed him.

The more he fought, the more anxious he became, because he could not find a way to break through Ouma Shu. He originally thought that Ouma Shu and Yuzuriha Inori did not have tacit understanding. Even if he could not solve Ouma Shu first, he could kill Yuzuriha Inori first. In this way, Ouma Shu lost Yuzuriha Inori, a powerful attacker, and he would not pose any threat to Jiang Shenya.

After all, victory depends not on defense, but on attack! For Jiang Shenya, no matter how many people are around Ouma Shu, it is useless, because he can solve all the people behind him with one arrow after another.

After solving the people behind him, Jiang Shenya can come to Ouma Shu's front indifferently and drop a sentence: Look at what you have protected, you can't protect anything.

The result is that Jiang Shenya underestimated Ouma Shu's licking dog level.

Even if Yuzuriha Inori is ten meters away from Ouma Shu, Ouma Shu can instantly come to Yuzuriha Inori's front to protect Yuzuriha Inori, as if he has turned on a teleportation cheat.

This made Jiang Shenya very hate the physical fitness enhancement brought by the Void gene. This kind of physical fitness enhancement is too difficult for him to deal with.

If his attack wants to be strong, he must charge up, but charging up while moving and aiming is very poor, and standing still and not understanding is easy to be attacked.

Although he is said to be a master of fighting, he is not a master of using bows and arrows. Bows and arrows are much more difficult to deal with than melee weapons. When facing Yuzuriha Inori, he even has to be forced to use bows to play melee bow fighting, but as mentioned earlier, he is not a qualified archer, so his bow fighting skills are not good at all.

This leads to him being very embarrassed once he is approached, and can only run away, run far away, and then charge up to counterattack after pulling away the attack distance.

Don't even think about moving shooting. This is not holding a gun and sweeping while running.

Moreover, what makes Jiang Shenya even more annoyed is that Tsugumi and Ayase are also standing in Ouma Shu's camp. Tsugumi's hacking skills are very important to Jiang Shenya. The intelligence advantage of Funeral Parlor's many previous actions was established by Tsugumi, and now losing Tsugumi's intelligence advantage, some future actions will definitely be more troublesome.

Wang Xiaoming personally slaughtered all the people in Funeral Parlor. In fact, besides these few people in Funeral Parlor, there are other high-level figures, such as Funeral Parlor's strategist, Funeral Parlor's action captain, but they all died in Wang Xiaoming's hands in the battle outside the branch base, and were killed without any resistance.

So Jiang Shenya really has no one available now, not a single person can be used. Even if he wants to reorganize the team, he must start looking for people from scratch, and it will take several years to have a team that is absolutely loyal to him.

But he can't guarantee that he will not be hacked to death by Yuzuriha Inori's Void Greatsword in these few years.

In just one week, Wang Xiaoming let them fight three times. In the three battles, Ouma Shu's movement speed has been greatly improved, because he has to protect Yuzuriha Inori, and every time he instantly moves to Yuzuriha Inori's front to protect Yuzuriha Inori, and Yuzuriha Inori's ability to cut off everything has also become stronger. From being able to cut out less than twenty meters when she got the Greatsword, it has now become able to stably cut out more than twenty meters. Although the improvement is not great, this kind of improvement is very terrifying, because her ability is to cut off everything. Whether it is the Ultimate Roar, or buildings made of steel and concrete, they are all useless in front of her Void Greatsword. Only Void can defeat Void!

Wang Xiaoming is not interested in what Jiang Shenya and Ouma Shu think. He is only interested in the data of Jiang Shenya and Ouma Shu's bodies.

By constantly letting them fight each other, their body data has indeed improved a lot, which is great.

But this is not enough.

Since Wang Xiaoming created Void Warriors, then he must create corresponding opponents for Void Warriors, so that these Void Warriors can exert their combat power.

Thus, Wang Xiaoming left his clone in the base, and then his main body reduced his sense of existence and left GHQ headquarters, and came to Mount Fuji, which is sparsely populated.

Mount Fuji is not far from Tokyo, but the flow of people is very small, which is suitable for Wang Xiaoming to do new experiments.

In the forest at the foot of Mount Fuji, there are many wild animals, so Wang Xiaoming randomly captured some wild animals and injected Void genes into these wild animals.

Of course, while injecting Void genes, Wang Xiaoming also injected Gastrea modification genes into these animals. In one wave, he successfully turned these animals into Gastrea carrying Void genes. These Gastrea started at least LV2 level big guys.

In this way, the opponents prepared for Jiang Shenya and them are ready, just wait for them to fight these monsters.

721. Gastrea Stands on the Earth!

"What, there are monsters appearing on Mount Fuji? Why don't you say Ultraman has appeared."

"I'm not kidding, and I'm not kidding you. Even if you call the police, you should at least say it like it's true. It's difficult for me to handle it like this, sir."

"But there really are monsters here. Many people in the village have been killed by monsters. Please, you must come and save us. We are all hiding in the cellar!"

"Okay, okay, we will send someone over."

The operator shook his head speechlessly after hanging up the phone. The colleague next to him curiously poked his head over.

"What's wrong? What did the caller just say?"

"The guy who just called the police said that monsters appeared at the foot of Mount Fuji, and even ate a lot of people."

"Monsters? Hahahaha, did you ask him if there are any Kamen Riders?"
