With enough Nutritional Liquid, this was the basis of everything.

I remember them,
outside of the door, East Perrin repeated what Garen had asked for. Her memory was not bad and she could remember everything just by hearing once. Soon, she left and seemed to be going somewhere to find the materials.
However, as noises arose from the outside, Garen knew that he was wrong. Voices of exclamations were faintly heard.

Chief has gone out!!


Why is she when it’s so dangerous!?


Get back! Big sister!

People shouted again and again but no response was heard from East Perrin.
Within ten minutes, she had returned.

Thank God!


Chief, you can never run a risk again! You are our only hope!


Chief…!

Chief…

Flustered voices followed, with the voice of East Perrin constantly apologizing.
Garen looked up, and suddenly, all the pain in his body disappeared without a trace as if it had never emerged before.
Time, 7:22.

Finally it has ended…
Garen let out a sigh of relief and wiped his sweat with both hands. He felt that there was a difference in the two imprints behind him.
He found a mirror and looked at himself. Under the control of his Willpower, a greatly altered Willpower imprint gradually appeared.
The original two imprints had now become a larger single unit. The original diamond shape had also turned into the form of a tiny wild wolf with a black body and green eyes. It didn’t look too bad, even a bit ferocious.

This is Energy Machine Imprint?
Garen tried again to calculate the stereoscopic computational model for the advancing of Level Three Energy Machinist. Sure enough, it was no ordinary task. It was almost incomparable to the previous straining effort.

If there was enough time, I need five days to break through to Energy Machinist Level Three!
He made a simple calculation of the progress in his mind.

Sure enough, having three times more the computing power is different.


The materials have been found!
The voice of East Perrin came from outside of the door, calm and exhausted.
Garen stood up and walked over to open the door. He looked at East Perrin, her hair scattered over her forehead. This agile and brave woman still had a straight face on. There was a thin trace of blood on her cheek. Clearly, the trip was not entirely smooth.
The tight gray dress she wore was snagged and had several holes. Blood marks were vaguely visible on the skin.

Take me there,
Garen exclaimed.

On the edge of the processing workshop at the rear of Leo City, a square pit was dug out in an open space. It was piled with a variety of messy materials, including roots, flowers, bloody flesh and bones.
Garen and East Perrin stood alone in front of the pit.

What do you want to do?
East Perrin asked Garen.
Everything has been found for you.


There is still a lacking of one last thing,
Garen said plainly.

Still lacking!?
East Perrin’s eyes widened.
Few of my brothers are dead because of these things, I myself almost died outside. Now you tell me that there is still something lacking?!


What’s lacking cannot be found by you,
Garen said plainly.
We’re all in the same boat together now. If you die and I’ll also die. What’s there to be desperate about?

East Perrin wiped her face.

Alright, I’ll calm down. Now there are a few waves of small-scale attacks out there. The number is about a dozen. But when I went out and looked through the telescope, Vulture City has basically been digested. The Predators inside seems to have begun to shift out and head over here. We don’t have much time.


How much longer? An estimation?
Garen asked.

No more than three days. Although the number of Predators has increased, their speed has also reduced. It takes five days to walk over here from Vulture City. Since the speed of the Predators are fast, it should take them about three days to journey here. The discrepancy would not be huge,
East Perrin answered in a low voice.

Just wait for it. There will be hope,
Garen jumped down and began to pick up a piece of material by hand. Traces of Cold Radiation flashed in his hand from time to time, freezing the better part of the material to prevent it from deteriorating.
East Perrin did not know what to do and could only watch from the edge.

Prepare a room for me, a bigger one,
Garen ordered.

Alright.

Minutes and seconds ticked by and it was time for breakfast. Radiation people were accustomed to eating two meals a day, one about nine in the morning and another at six in the evening. However now, when the few women who were in-charged of meals served some food to eat, not many people had the appetite. There were children silently helping to refill the food and water.
Garen directly consumed the highly irradiated Nutritional Liquid. With a grab, blue threads emerged from his palm and directly absorbed the Nutritional Liquid, leaving only useless impurities behind.
Time passed quickly and noon soon arrived. Garen looked up to the sky from time to time as he was waiting for the drone sent out by Celine. If his luck was alright, perhaps with the distance from Polar Region to here, it would reach today.
East Perrin had already gone to defense. Now the atmosphere in the town was somewhat in despair. Without her taking command in the city, it was very likely that something catastrophic would happen.
Garen stayed here alone and quietly worked on the material in his hands.
Two large basins were placed beside each other and the parts he had dealt with were placed in them.
The Predators were gradually approaching. There were definitely Level Two Predators in the vast army. When Garen saw the end of Caster who had tried to escape, he knew that he had hit jackpot. A one in a million Level Two Predator was actually present here.
According to the data records, Level Two Predators could produce a Willpower Field-liked Mind Force, which could produce a substantial effect. This was the scene that everyone saw at that time. Caster was crushed by an invisible force and died without leaving a complete corpse behind.

Now that there is Energy Machine Imprint and most of the materials are available, the only thing that is lacking is the Biochemical Pool…
Garen lifted up his head and looked at the gray-blue sky.
This was the fifteenth time he had looked to the sky today.
This time, the margin of the endless sky finally did not disappoint him. A blue dot was flying at high speed toward this side. Its outline looked like a drone.
Garen’s face finally showed a smile. If it came any later, he probably would have to consider expanding one Soul Seed to reincarnate…
He quickly jumped out of the pit and ran to look for East Perrin to have her tell everyone not to shoot down the drone in the sky.
At this moment, as soon he ran out from the rear of the city, he realized that something was amiss.
There was no one in the houses of the city. Everyone seemed to be concentrated at the front and vague screams could be heard from that side.
From far, East Perrin saw Garen ran out.

Be careful! There are Predators that have sneaked in! They are invisible!
She yelled.
Invisible Predators!!
Garen was surprised. This was a rare species among the Predators! How could there be any here?
He suddenly felt a deep chill coming behind him.
He spun around, gave a sidekick, and released cold air!
Three fluent and continuous moves emerged instantly.
Garen felt as is he had kicked something hard. With a loud boom, a large amount of cold air quickly covered the entire body of that object which he had kicked. The hoarfrost completely revealed its form.
This humanoid creature was kicked right in the head. It stumbled out a few steps, drowsily fell to the ground, and was swamped by the subsequent white air, directly freezing into a large piece of ice.
Garen looked at his trousers. There was blood on it. With his physical fitness, he was actually at a disadvantage in the direct confrontation just now. Moreover, he felt some pain in his bones where there were probably some fractures.

This is the Invisible Predator?

He took a close look at this thing. It had the same shape of a human but without hands. There were two stout, octopus-like tentacles at that place of its arms.
East Perrin also brought some people as she rushed over here. When she saw the ice on the ground, she sucked in a breath of cold air.

This is the guy who had killed eight of my brothers and sisters!
She raised her hand and shot the ice to pieces.
Krak!
The whole piece of ice shattered into glass-like pieces.
Garen glanced behind East Perrin. There were only more than a dozen people left. It seemed that these were the remaining manpower of the entire city. There were also a few children and women who were covered in blood.

What about the rest?


All dead…
East Perrin replied in a low voice. There was also blood on her face and it was unclear whether it was hers or someone else’s.

We have no idea when the Invisible Predator sneaked in. When we realized it, it had already killed half of the logistics personnel. It also killed a few men who had gone over to help,
the old man Malone said palely.
At this time, the drone flew down from the sky and descended towards Garen.
Someone raised their gun and aimed it at the drone out of conditioned reflex.

Don’t shoot!
Garen quickly shouted.
This made everyone loosen up a little. They watched Garen reach out his hands to grab the small drone and took down a small fist-sized black box from it.

Take care,
he whispered the cipher to the black box.
Pap. The box opened automatically. The cover rose slowly, revealing a round thing wrapped in white silk.
Garen took out this thing and left the rest of it with East Perrin.

This stuff can be used as an investigating drone.


What is that?!
East Perrin looked at the ball in his hand.

This is hope!

Garen answered without looking back and hurriedly ran towards the rear of the city.
Following the path between the houses in the city, he went straight back to the side of the pit. Garen lifted the material basin that he managed and walked into a large, empty stone house on the right.
This stone house just so happened to have a basement. It was the residence left by a man who had died in battle. He had no wife and children, so this place was assigned to Garen as a laboratory house.
Uncovering the fist-size thing in his hand, it was a black stone.
Garen gripped the stone with both of his hands and applied force to both sides of it.
Krak!
The stone was divided into two in a crisp sound and a piece of pale yellow soft meat fell out. It was caught by Garen.

This is it! Mila Cells, Stoneheart Flesh… The main part of the Biochemical Pool!!
Garen knew that in the present plight, there finally was hope…
