Looking at the bright red blood in the syringe, Caroline didn't know what to say for a moment. From the moment she entered this storage space, it felt like Nelson had been leading her around by the nose with his various maneuvers. But since Nelson had already drawn his blood, she could hardly force it back in, so Caroline silently accepted it. She quickly explained what was happening outside, then dragged over several ant corpses she had just stored. When Nelson saw these massive creatures, he immediately pulled out a scalpel and performed what could only be called brain surgery on one of the ants. Its head was separated from its body, yet its antennae were still twitching. "If I'm not mistaken, these things have highly developed nervous systems. Give me some time and I'll develop a drug." According to Nelson, he had already conducted a preliminary analysis of the mutant panda's sample. The results showed that within the panda's tissue cells, there was an extremely volatile element that looked like a miniature typhoon forming inside the cellular structure. This gave the mutant panda's cells tremendous activity. This was similar to the blood sample he'd collected earlier from Colonel Sutton. "I tried combining these tissue cell samples with other substances, and it didn't produce any effective results. I don't know how to extract the energy from inside. These panda tissue samples might be unusually vigorous because she's pregnant. I still need more time to research." Hearing what Nelson said, Caroline nodded slowly. After all, only a day had passed, and the fact that Nelson could figure out this much was already impressive. At least it proved that the color element in the panda's body was the same wind-type as Colonel Sutton's, which was exactly the cyan color element Caroline was missing. With Tyler and Denton still outside and the base in critical danger, Caroline didn't waste more time talking. She promised to catch a live one for him later, then left the storage space. ... The moment she emerged, she saw Denton outside landing a perfect strike on a mutant ant climbing up the wall. The ant had just climbed in through the window and barely poked its head out before it was struck down. Denton said to Caroline with a grin, "Caroline, you should've seen me just now. I was so cool!" Only then did Caroline notice that Tyler was standing nearby with half his body phased into the shelter's metal wall while the other half jutted out. He was ambushing mutant ants that appeared at the window. Lieutenant Colonel Roberts and the others lay collapsed on the ground, their conditions unknown. However, they all shared one characteristic—their entire bodies looked like they'd been sliced by razor blades, turned into bloody messes. It was a gruesome sight. While Caroline had been talking to Nelson earlier, she'd also glanced outside through the storage space a few times. She had seen Tyler fighting with knife-edge precision, yet none of his strikes were fatal. Even a dozen ability users couldn't stand a chance against Tyler. This was Tyler's true strength when facing ordinary people—complete and utter domination. It was just that recently, the opponents Caroline and her group had encountered were mostly quite formidable, especially inhuman types like Shane, who left them completely at a loss. "I left them all breathing for you. Copy their abilities." A mutant ant crawled in through the window and Tyler sliced through its head with one strike. Hidden within the wall, his entire body had merged with the base, making it even harder for those mutant ants to detect him. Caroline smiled and without another word, successfully copied the abilities from all dozen people. Afterward, she found Lieutenant Colonel Howard and tossed an ice blade over, giving him a quick end. Lieutenant Colonel Howard, who had plotted to kill people, absolutely couldn't be spared, but the other soldiers who had followed his orders could be interrogated by Colonel Sutton and the others to determine their future fate. "This is bad! A massive wave of mutant ants is coming!" At this moment, almost every window in the entire base had shattered. Not just the soldiers, but even some civilians with fighting capability had joined the battle. When Caroline first emerged, the mutant ant attacks had clearly weakened. The first wave of group attacks had been completely suppressed by the military's firepower. But now, someone was shouting warnings about a new threat.Caroline rushed to the window and in the near distance, she saw a dense swarm of brown ants marching toward them in perfect formation. As they advanced, they bit through and devoured any plants that had just started growing nearby. Some mutant animals that hadn't escaped in time were also swarmed and eaten by them. Wherever the army ants passed, almost nothing remained. And at this moment, these bandit-like mutant creatures had locked their sights firmly on this massive base. The base covered far more ground than the army ants, but that didn't matter. Facing these bandits who only knew how to eat, who were extremely obedient to orders, and who knew how to cooperate, panic spread throughout the base.
