Chapter 204 - 204 Refugee
204 Refugee
The car drove into the military compound and they quickly headed towards the office. When they entered the meeting room, they saw that there were several other people whom they didn’t recognize.
“Meow?” <So many people?>
Kate was a bit surprised when she saw these people. She tilted her head and looked at the military commanders and felt that they were unfamiliar.
“You’re finally back.” General Ryou nodded. “This is General Noir from City G. They’re here to take refuge.”
“City G is also attacked by giant mutated animals?” Kyle’s eyes flashed coldly.
Those giant mutated animals seemed to be very restless and kept on attacking various cities.
“Yes.” General Noir admitted frankly. He was around the same age as General Ryan and looked a bit tired from the long journey. “These giant mutated animals are very sharp and seemed to be targeting the gems. We’ve already evacuated the citizen and put them into City E, but the losses are still very significant.”
Kyle nodded. “The gems are only distributed to City A until City H. Are other cities also have these gems?”
“No. The other cities don’t have these gems, so they didn’t have the risk of having these giant mutated animals suddenly barge in. But then again, when the meteor came, there are some pieces that separated and fell all over the world.” General Ryan sighed. He beckoned for Lica to the front. “This is Assistant Professor Lica who had been researching about this matter for a long period of time.”
.....
“Hello everyone.” Lica bowed down. “After coming to City E and retrieved the remaining gems, we have come to the conclusion that these giant mutated animals are indeed able to get stronger by relying on the gem. Unlike humans who had to take it through their blood, they can absorb these gems from the released energy around it.
As I have stated in my report before, the giant mutated animals in City E are getting stronger and there are even rank 7 giant mutated animals. The giant mutated animals are so powerful that we are almost buried.”
“Meow?”
Kate blinked her eyes. She thought that the report would only differ slightly, but she didn’t expect that they would actually change the story so much. It was also said that they didn’t manage to kill the rank 7 giant mutated animals and that they would need to isolate City F as fast as possible.
Turning her head to look at Kyle, Kate could see that he was looking at the report with solemn expression without any surprise. It meant that they all knew that the report had been modified and their statement would be modified along with it.
She silently veered her eyes away.
Anyway, she would just pretend that she knew nothing about this.
“I have already given the report and many militaries from other cities have come.” General Ryan rubbed his forehead. “However, they will definitely not be willing to come without given anything.”
Lica took out the box. “I didn’t dare to open this box here because I’m afraid of attracting the giant mutated animals. However, these are the leftover gems from City F. these can be used to repay them.”
“Repay those old b*stard who only know how to take advantage of us?” General Noir snorted. “Is it so easy for them.”
“We can make some rules so that only the best performance will get these. The others will get some money symbolically.” General Ryan shrugged. “In any case, if they didn’t deal with the giant mutated animals in City F, these giant mutated animals will eventually come to their territory.”
City F is located near City E, City G, City H, City I, and City J. So far, the last three cities hadn’t fallen yet but they were already panicking when they heard that there were a rank 7 giant mutated animals in City F.
If that rank 7 giant mutated animals were to be getting out, where would they go?
They could head to any of the cities as they willed it.
The strongest awakened so far were only rank 5, so they had to figure out a way to eliminate that rank 7 giant mutated animals as fast as possible without leaving a threat that could eliminate them.
“How’s Mr. Yuri progress?”
“They estimated that he will reach rank 6 by the end of this week.” General Ryan passed a glance at his son. “City H is treating him as their sole hope, so they will definitely give him a lot of resources to get stronger.”
“Other cities either have rank 4 or rank 5 as the highest rank right now. Only Mr. Yuri is almost rank 6. It can be said that City H has such high advantage.” General Noir sighed deeply.
General Ryan and General Ryou were silent.
Advantage?
There were two rank 6 awakened in this room alone. And these two were standing not far from you, General Noir.
However, they also knew that Kyle had no intention of revealing his real abilities. It was also because of this reason that no one ever tried to probe his strength. The last time, he had already shown that he had reached rank 5 along with the two other generals.
There was no need for him to show off his strength again.
After that, they discussed about defense and so on. Kate was so bored because she understood nothing and eventually decided to use Kyle’s arm as her pillow again.
The meeting lasted for some time before they asked for leave.
The next topic was not something for them to participate in.
Jake stretched his hand happily when they got out. “Finally. I was about to have cramps from standing in that meeting room.”
Kyle glanced at Jake. “You will need to be more patient in the future if you’re still going to stay in the military.”
Jake was speechless. “I don’t have that much interest to stay in the military. Anyway, are you going to help them to settle the problem of those rank 7 giant mutated animals?”
“No.”
