Chapter 55 - The Nest of the S-Grade Q

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

When Peter heard his father’s question, a strange thought popped into his mind.

Could it be that when he was young, the human Federation still advocated Genetic Warriors?

This should be the case.

If Mecha Warriors were revered in that era, then his father would ask another question.

For example, would he want to become a Mecha Warrior when he grew up?

At that moment, Peter felt indignant.

He knew that this might have been formed in an illusion.

It was very possible that this was the attack method in the illusion, to guide the emotions of the people who entered the illusion step by step.

In the end, the person who entered the illusion would go crazy.

At this time, Peter didn’t answer his father’s question in the illusion.

Instead, he stared ahead with his eyes wide open.

It was the exit of an underground tunnel. Then, a tall mutated creature ran out from the tunnel.

Peter recognized the mutated creature that had suddenly appeared. It was a mutated wild wolf.

He was curious whether he could extract the genes of the mutated wolf in the illusion.

He wanted to try something out. Thus, Peter let go of his father’s hand and rushed towards the mutated wolf.

His father roared behind him.

“Peter, don’t go over!”

Peter had rushed out, but the mutated gray wolf froze.

The mutated gray wolf probably did not expect a human child to run towards it instead of running away.

When Peter ran to the mutated gray wolf, the mutated gray wolf finally showed its beastly nature.

It raised its front claw and swatted Peter away without much effort.

Peter flew backward in midair.

Although he did not extract the gray wolf genes after approaching the mutated gray wolf, this allowed Peter to leave the illusion.

Peter experienced a momentary dizziness.

When he could see the things in his surroundings clearly, he had already returned to the tunnel, and in front of him was the mutated dream eater.

The dream eater didn’t expect Peter to be able to escape from the illusion so quickly.

Even Peter felt that this was strange. Was it that he could only escape the illusion by being attacked by the monsters inside?

Peter did not have time to verify his guess. Right now, the most urgent thing was to get rid of the dream eater in front of him.

The dream eater felt that its illusion had failed and wanted to turn around to escape in panic.

However, it was not as fast as Peter. As soon as it turned around, Peter caught up to it.

The unlucky dream eater’s head was instantly smashed by Peter.

As the corpse of the dream eater fell, Peter received another system prompt.

[A-Grade dream eater genes detected. Extracting…]

[Extraction successful. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the ability to create illusions.]

After obtaining this new ability, Peter opened the system interface.

[Peter]

[Power]: 12,090kg

[Speed]: 47.2m/s

[Physical Strength]: 1350

[Rage]: 50 times (Instantly increases physical fitness by 50 times for a duration of eight minutes. There is a cooldown of 24 hours before it can be used again.)

[Regeneration]: 100 times (Tissue regeneration time is shortened to ten seconds.)

[Venom]: Ignores the target’s defense.

[Illusion]: Ignores the target’s strength.

The newest illusion skill could ignore the opponent’s strength.

This was a very practical skill.

In the future, if he encountered powerful enemies, he could lure them into an illusion first.

However, he did not know whether he could see the image of the target entering the illusion after the other party entered the illusion. After all, he was the person who used the illusion.

If he could see this image, it was equivalent to prying into the target’s privacy.

However, Peter did not have a target to test out his newly acquired skill now.

He had to speed up his search for the nest of the S-Grade queen insect. Otherwise, he really wouldn’t have time.

Fortunately, no time had passed when he was in the illusion.

After Peter left the illusion, he intentionally glanced at the time.

He realized that it felt as if a few minutes had passed while he was in the illusion.

However, after leaving the illusion, the time lost in reality was very short and almost negligible.

Then, Peter sped through the underground tunnel, killing all the mutated creatures he encountered on the way.

Although the mutated creatures that gushed out of the underground tunnel were not high-leveled, there were many of them.

This also affected Peter’s speed.

Two minutes later.

Peter came to a fork that was divided into two tunnels on the left and right.

“Damn it! Which tunnel should I enter?”

Just as Peter stopped to think, another mutated creature ran out of the tunnel on the left. Judging from its appearance, it should be a mutated mouse.

Peter was too lazy to extract the genes of a low-level mutant creature like this mouse.

Not only would he obtain very little power, he would also waste his time.

Peter rushed into the left tunnel again and killed all the mutated mice inside.

After that, Peter sped along the left tunnel.

Another minute passed.

Peter entered a large cave. Then, he heard a voice coming from the depths of the cave.

He couldn’t tell if the voice was male or female, but it sounded like a neutral voice.

“You humans are like ants. What right do you have to rule this world!”
