Age of Mecha: Divine-grade Genetic Extraction

Chapter 54: Finding the S-Grade Queen Insect

The large number of mutated creatures increased the pace of their attacks.

It seemed like these ugly insects were being controlled by the S-Grade queen insect.

More mutated creatures also poured out of the collapsed cave.

The upper echelons of the Federation, who had been paying attention to the situation outside the battlefield, were surprised to find that the God of War Peter suddenly jumped up and left his defensive position.

Of course, David had no idea about the God of War Peter’s plan.

The God of War Peter would definitely not tell him about his plan either.

It wasn’t that the God of War Peter ignored General David. Instead, due to the current crisis, he didn’t have time to inform the upper echelons of the Federation.

Peter jumped about 500 meters in his first jump. When his feet landed among the beasts, he simply stepped on a small group of mutated creatures.

Before the mutated creatures around him could react, Peter exerted strength in his legs and jumped again.

This time, he chose to land directly in the collapsed pit.

This would save a lot of time.

For Peter, the most important thing now was time.

Bang!

Peter’s body smashed into the pit like a cannonball.

In an instant.

The dark environment in the pit made Peter uncomfortable.

However, he had already expected this situation.

“Activate the lights!”

As Peter spoke, the smart lighting device on his head was turned on.

Powerful light instantly illuminated the environment in the deep pit.

In front of him was an endless tunnel, with traces of being dug by mutated creatures on both sides.

A few mutated creatures rushed up not far from Peter.

These were low-level mutant creatures that could not pose a threat to Peter.

What made Peter afraid was the front of the tunnel. After his body was enhanced by the Thunder God genes, his ability to sense danger was also growing.

If his guess was correct, there should be a very powerful mutant creature ahead in the tunnel.

This mutated creature was very likely the guard protecting the tunnel.

The guard wanted to prevent the human faction from sending powerful Mecha Warriors into the tunnel to find the nest of the S-Grade queen insect.

“There’s actually a powerful mutated creature here?”

After destroying several low-level mutant creatures with his fist, Peter looked ahead.

He was very surprised. With his current strength, there were very few mutated creatures that could threaten his safety.

“I can’t be careless! Mutated creatures also have very strange abilities. I can be killed easily if I’m not careful.”

Peter was very powerful now, but that did not mean that his physical defense was also very powerful.

Peter could not withstand the attack of a very powerful mutant creature.

Previously, he had extracted genes that allowed him to regenerate.

As long as it was not a very serious fatal injury, a wound would usually heal quickly.

However, the pain after being injured could not be eliminated. After all, no one wanted to be tortured by the pain forever.

After Peter advanced some distance in the tunnel, a mutated creature appeared in front of him.

This mutated creature looked like an anteater. Its long and thick mouth was open.

The gas that came out of its mouth had a foul smell.

Just then, Peter received a system prompt.

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

[Extraction failed. The A-Grade dream eater has the ability to lock its genes.]

Peter was about to rush up and end its life with a punch.

However, an unfamiliar scene suddenly appeared in front of him.

He was surrounded by dim streets, and an adult man was walking beside him.

At that moment, Peter needed to look up to see the appearance of the man beside him.

“Daddy!”

Peter recognized the man walking beside him as his father.

At this moment…

Peter understood that he had entered an illusion.

According to the scene in the illusion, it seemed to be from his childhood.

“Could the illusion in front of me be caused by that A-Grade dream eater?”

Peter felt that this guess was very likely.

This was because other than the A-Grade dream eater he had just encountered, there was no other reason that could allow him to enter a dream-like scene in a short period of time.

As Peter had expected, there were really powerful mutant creatures in the tunnel.

The problem now was how to leave this illusion.

After Peter extracted the Thunder God genes, his physical fitness had increased.

However, he was momentarily helpless against such a creature that could put its target in an illusion.

“To leave this illusion, I probably have to find the core person or object in the illusion.”

He would find the core person or object in the illusion and destroy them.

This was a method that Peter could think of to escape the illusion for the time being.

Peter must have been very young in the illusion.

His height in the illusion only reached his father’s waist.

Meanwhile, from the direction that his father was walking in, he seemed to be taking him home.

He did not know why his childhood self would appear in the illusion.

Peter noticed that the surrounding environment was also what it had been like more than a decade ago.

Back then, there were no slums in New York Base City, and his neighborhood was not dilapidated either.

Coupled with the fact that his parents had stable jobs, his family was a middle-class family back then.

At this moment, Peter’s father spoke in the illusion.

“Peter, do you want to become a Genetic Warrior when you grow up?”
