My Bio-Nanotech System - Chapter 1: Just Another Mission
Chapter 1: Just Another Mission
“We’re nearing the altar, and the presence of a stage seven Star rank beast has been identified on the route…” The AI voice of the spaceship rang out as the captain sitting in the pilot’s seat narrowed his eyes.
Immediately grabbing the communicator beside him, he said, “You all should prepare for disembarkation in the next 30 seconds…”
A group of seven, clothed in advanced dark-red colored battle suits, could be seen in a long hall, seated opposite each other.
Large Assault Rifles in hand and the different spaces on their battle suits were daggers and different types of other lethal technological weapons.
They all had Nano-helmets covering their heads, revealing only their eyes, which would make any man fall on his knees upon sighting those cold, predatory eyes that screamed of murder and madness.
This is a group of elite shoulders trained from a young age to become absolute killing machines capable of completing all missions whatsoever, no matter the danger. Each of them has stepped on the bones of countless others just to survive for this long.
A group named Death Soldiers…
The voice of the captain rang out as they all stood immediately at once, as if having rehearsed this moment for a thousand times.
The sound of seven guns being cocked reverberated through the hall in unison, creating an echo that made one’s heart pound faster in their rib cages.
“30…29…28…27…” The countdown by the AI of the spaceship began, but It wasn’t a simple countdown to descending a spaceship and landing on the ground.
It was that of descending into hell and landing in the abyss, as even the elite soldiers could be heard exhaling from their lungs, perspiration on their faces while some tightened their hands on the gun as if saying goodbye to their dying friends.
But there was a single anomaly among the group, standing at the utmost front, golden eyes narrowed dangerously in focus as he looked at the door they’ll be descending through, his gaze never, for once, blinking away from it.
There were no signs of emotions, no perspiration, or signs of nervousness, just a deep scary calmness.
“3…2…1…”
The space beneath them slowly opened, revealing the fog beneath them. The air flapped around the entire hall enough to sweep away an ordinary mortal from his feet, but they all remained stationary as if glued to the floor.
The sound of footsteps could be heard from behind them, revealing a 2-meter-tall middle-aged man with ruby red eyes and hair, completely clad in an advanced Mecha suit and carrying a plasma rifle twice as big as the rest carried by the others.
The man walked to the front of the group, turning his head back to stare at the group of seven behind him before focusing on the abyss below.
Suddenly, he got into a strange stature, with his upper body lowered, and his butt pushed out.
“Jump!”
The command reverberated through the entire space as the man disappeared into the sea of fog below them, the entire group following just a second later.
— — —
Eight figures jumping from a height of 500 meters in the air rapidly descended to the ground, inching closer to the ground with every passing second but when it looked as if they were about to kiss the ground.
They all suddenly revolved at the same time, legs facing down as thrusters blazed beneath the soles of their battle suits, instantaneously stopping their descent as they gently landed on the ground.
The captain grabbed his gun tightly, looking around at the sight of where they were.
A swampy ground covered with tall trees covered the distance as far as eyes could see.
Demolished ruins of buildings with vines growing all around them in the far distance, revealing signs of former civilization, while bones littered the swampy floor, bearing the grotesque shape of both humanoid and beastly.
The captain raised his hands, pointing to his eyes before pointing forward.
Immediately, the entire group moved forward with coordinated speed while he stayed at the back following behind them, eyes glued to the holographic on his hands which revealed 8 tiny dots and a singular red dot at the end of the image.
“Just 5 more kilometers…” He muttered under his breath, his eyes shining in delight, but his face immediately changed as his hands tightly grabbed hold of the gun…
“AHHHHHHHHH….” The shrill scream of a human rang out as the captain’s eyes narrowed dangerously, barely seeing one of the soldiers dragged into the ground with speed, his head quickly disappearing within the swamp, bringing an end to his scream and most surely his life.
This Happened In A Split Second!!! ÚpTodated 𝒏ov𝒆ls on 𝒏o(v)𝒆l()bin(.)c𝒐m
“It’s a Wyrm, tighten the circle and leave no hole of attack…” The captain commanded as the group formed a circular format with him at the center of this format.
The silence in the place was chilling, and the bone-biting chill emanating from the fog made matters worse, giving them no time to even take a deep breath, but they continued forward nonetheless…
The group slowly came to a halt and their faces slowly turned gloomy when they saw the swamp in front of them, suddenly twisting and turning as they watched it revolve.
And as if in a chain reaction, the other ‘grounds’ beneath them also began twisting and squirming as they revolved around the group in a circular format.
The faces of the soldiers beneath the masks visibly paled as they looked at the five grounds that were twisting beneath them…
“Oh, no. It’s a total of five wyrms at the third star rank stage…” The captain said, swallowing a spittle, his voice like a bomb dropping on the entire group, but suddenly, he felt a golden pair of eyes turning towards him.
“No! It’s a wyrm lair…”
“WHAT!!!” The entire group screamed out in shock on hearing that.
“Don’t you all realize we’ve been walking on their backs ever since we descended…” The emotionless voice of the golden-eyed soldier rang out as the entire group’s faces turned a shade paler, and they stared beneath their feet.
The Ground They Were Standing On Was Slowly Moving…
“Oh, no…”
“Shit, FIREEEEEEEE…”
VROOM
VROOM
VROOM
VROOM
SCRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICHHHHHH
The sounds of a plasma gun being fired immediately rang out as the foggy area was illuminated in a destructive green light.
The soldiers immediately gathered back facing as they shot at their fastest speed.
SCRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICHHHHHH
The sound of the wyrms rang out through the entire area as gigantic snake heads tore out of the ground, revealing the full figure of the ten-meter-long abominations straight from hell.
With extremely hard scales that could rival iron in defense and sharp rowed teeth, thousands in numbers. They were the perfect abyssal anacondas from any psycho’s nightmare.
The wyrms launched a brutal assault at the invaders, their gigantic maws snapping at them from every direction, but all their endeavors to tear apart the invaders were for naught as the green ball of energy emanating from the guns burned through their scales while a wyrm that tried to swallow them will only feel a circular iron ball enter into its mouth before its entire body blew up with a bang.
An even more powerful screech suddenly rang out as the floor where they all stood suddenly shook. The entire group immediately rolled away, a gigantic wyrm head bursting out of the ground a moment later.
The captain turned his head, his eyes widening in fear as he felt the aura around this wyrm which was at the 5thstar rank, but his eyes narrowed seeing a soldier high in the air who was slowly descending downwards, no doubt surely entering into the belly of the gigantic wrym in the end.
“Tch, and here I thought he would last the longest…” The captain said as he noticed the figure was the golden-eyed soldier who soon disappeared into the mouth of the wyrm which immediately snapped its jaws close tightly.
“His fate has been sealed…” The captain whispered, but as if in response, hot green blood splashed on his face as a blade light flashed through the world.
Hundreds of marks suddenly appeared on the gigantic wyrm’s body as it was immediately sliced into a hundred pieces and a golden-eyed figure burst out of its stomach in the next second, the same as the figure that got swallowed in the first place except this time he wore no helmet.
The captain seemed to have seen a ghost on sighting those devilishly handsome face and the words in his mouth got stuck in his throat.
“You… You’re Khan The Hollow!”
