Chapter 56: Before the War!

Furthermore, after these soldiers put on their Ceramic Steel Battle Armor, every single one of them stood at an average height of 2 meters.

Of course, this has a lot to do with them having taken the Special Protein; after their genes self-repaired, besides an increase in physical fitness, their height also increased somewhat.

It is just that this varies from person to person.

For instance, after Ye Cang drank two vials of the Special Protein, he only grew by a few centimeters.

Whereas after the soldiers drank it, they all shot up by over ten centimeters!

At this moment on the training ground, the soldiers were wearing pure black battle armor and were diligently training with their activated Chainswords.

The roar of the Chainswords combined with the soldiers' towering figures was truly full of intimidation.

Not to mention that there were 1,000 soldiers lined up in neat formations training.

Watching the soldiers training, a smile appeared on the corner of Ye Cang's mouth; Huaxia is now just about ready, and this will definitely make the Taotie die of pleasure.

It's just that I don't know if Siberia is big enough!

Immediately, Ye Cang turned and returned to his desk, then picked up a test tube filled with a milky white liquid from the table and shook it vigorously.

Looking at the viscous, milky white liquid inside the test tube, Ye Cang's face couldn't help but twitch.

"So viscous, this is really terrible!"

"This makes it hard for me not to think dirty thoughts; it's hard to imagine if the 4th or 5th vial of Special Protein will turn into a solid!"

"Forget it, just close your eyes and drink it!"

Yes, what Ye Cang held in his hand was precisely the Third Special Protein, and also the highest-grade Special Protein that can currently be produced on Earth.

The third vial of protein was cultured at about the same time as the first and second vials of Special Protein.

As for why it wasn't given to those soldiers to take, there is only one reason.

The soldiers need an adaptation period before they can take the Third Special Protein.

If they were to take it rashly, their genes would become somewhat unstable.

Currently, Ye Cang is the only one suitable to take the Third Special Protein.

Looking at the Special Protein in his hand, Ye Cang took a deep breath; he knew that the more he thought about this thing, the less he could drink it, so it was best to close his eyes, think of nothing, and just drink it.

But just as he intended to do so.

The system, which had been silent all along, suddenly spoke.

And it very rarely called Ye Cang by his full name.

【Ye Cang, are you sure you really want to drink this Third Special Protein?】

【Actually, I think you are completely sufficient as you are now; you don't need the Third Special Protein at all!】

【Look at you now, your strength is about 5 or 6 tons, and your lifespan is 500 or 600 years! It is completely enough for you to conduct scientific research; even learning Quantum Mechanics is enough.】

【There is really no need to drink the third vial of protein.】

These words from the system left Ye Cang very confused.

Why would the system say this and stop him from drinking the Third Special Protein?

Could it be that there is some system conspiracy theory?

If he drinks the Third Special Protein, will he break free from the system's control?

But thinking about it carefully, that's not right.

After some thought, Ye Cang simply asked the doubt in his heart directly.

"System, why won't you let me drink the Third Special Protein? Is there some special reason?"

【No.】

The system replied.

【I just don't want you to drink it, that is all.】

This answer made the already confused Ye Cang even more confused.

It just doesn't want him to drink it?

The system sensed Ye Cang's confusion and took the initiative to speak.

【Don't worry, no matter what happens to this world, no matter what occurs, I will never do anything detrimental to you; I will always stand on your side.】

【I will not harm you, so can you...】

Before the system finished speaking, Ye Cang had already downed the Third Special Protein in one gulp.

Smacking his lips, Ye Cang said: "Hmm... the taste is the same as last time, just a bit thicker."

【Sigh...】

The system let out a sigh and said nothing more.

Yet Ye Cang heard a hint of a different emotion in that sigh from the system; was it sadness?

But Ye Cang was not sure.

He wanted to ask the system, but no matter how he called out, the system did not say another word.

A confused Ye Cang scratched his hair, and just as he was about to make a phone call to that person.

Suddenly, a wave of dizziness washed over him; he couldn't hold on, sat in his chair, and passed out.

By the time Ye Cang woke up, it was already 1:00 PM.

Looking at the soldiers who were still training diligently despite the sun no longer being so scorching, Ye Cang didn't react, but instead suddenly thought of what he had been pondering before he passed out.

Sending the Taotie to Siberia to grow potatoes seems quite wasteful; it's impossible to let them realize their maximum value.

The best method is to modify the Taotie; that group of beast-types has strong vitality, and it is very convenient to modify them.

Turning them into war machines and using them to deal with other Taotie is truly making the best use of everything! It is absolutely perfect!

Besides that, there is also...

Just as he thought of this, Ye Cang's old-fashioned mobile phone suddenly rang.

He picked it up and took a look; it was a message.

Arrived at Luan Bird One.

Seeing this, Ye Cang stood up and went outside.

He said to the soldiers who were still training, "The 30 strongest among you, come here; there is a mission for you to execute this time."

Upon receiving the order, 30 soldiers immediately took their Chainswords, stepped out of the ranks, and came before Ye Cang.

Ye Cang glanced at them.

"Follow me!"

Afterwards, he led these 30 soldiers onto the Tianhe Transport Plane.

The transport plane took off, carrying Ye Cang and his group to Luan Bird One, which was in Earth's atmosphere.

There are a total of 3 Luan Birds, numbered according to the order in which they ascended.

Luan Bird One is naturally the one that ascended first.

Upon arriving at Luan Bird One, Ye Cang led these 30 soldiers directly to the Central Control Room.

At this moment, someone was already waiting for Ye Cang's arrival at the Central Control Room.

When Ye Cang's figure appeared in the Central Control Room.

That person immediately walked over.

"Xiao Cang, you've come."

Ye Cang nodded.

"Yes, I'm here, and I've also brought 30 Super Soldiers with me."

"These Super Soldiers, besides my own concepts, also incorporate your suggestions!"

Yes, the person waiting for Ye Cang was exactly that person.

The old man did not say anything, but instead walked up to one of the Super Soldiers and examined him carefully.

When the soldier saw the old man, he hurriedly saluted.

The old man looked him over for a long time before saying, "Good! This is truly excellent!"

"Super Soldiers not only possess strength but also powerful defense; now that group of Taotie is in for a rough time!"

"I didn't expect that you really achieved it, Xiao Cang!"

Regarding the old man's praise, Ye Cang's expression was indifferent and he did not react much, just nodding as if the old man had said nothing at all.

But the old man did not notice, as he was still examining the Super Soldier in black combat armor before him.

It was not until a good while later that he finally withdrew his gaze.
