Chapter 528: Typhoon Striking

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Sun Cheng rubbed his somewhat sore eyes; he knew it was time to return.

There were too many people watching him now, and he had previously used the excuse of feeling unwell to tell the company he would be resting for two or three days.

As for Ye Qi, he had also used other excuses to brush her off.

It was fine to disappear for a few days, but if it were too long, it would undoubtedly invite unnecessary suspicion and investigation, which would greatly affect Sun Cheng's strategy in reality.

However, two days was still too short.

Even though the engineering and construction robots that Sun Cheng had specifically brought back from the Transformers universe had an efficiency in construction far exceeding that of human crews, they still required time.

A mere two days only allowed them to finish surveying the entire terrain of Nublar Island and to find a valley area formed by the intersection of three small hills in the dense ridge region on the northwest side of Nublar Island.

This was the area originally planned by International Genetic Technologies on Nublar Island for the Tyrannosaurus Rex, and it had defensive fortifications and drainage systems originally built by International Genetic Technologies, which Sun Cheng utilized after discovering them.

Just like Base No. 1 and Base No. 2, Base No. 3 was still chosen to be hidden inside the mountain and underground.

Although this would undoubtedly greatly increase the difficulty of building the base, the benefits were obvious: it could effectively avoid the prying eyes of various countries' spy satellites and even military reconnaissance aircraft from outer space before Sun Cheng was strong enough.

From Sun Cheng's perspective, Nublar Island was undoubtedly a treasure island; its terrain was very peculiar, perfectly interpreting what is meant by "the wonders of creation."

Nublar Island was shaped like an oblique triangle, its appearance somewhat similar to South America, and especially similar to the map of Brazil.

The island was high in the west and low in the east, with winding ridges in the west and north that rose and fell, blocking the excess sea breeze and moisture from the Pacific Ocean on the outskirts of the island.

One side was rainforest, the other was normal mountain forest, and the center and southwest of the island were vast plains.

The diverse environment created an excellent living environment for the ancient giant beasts—the dinosaurs—on the island.

Therefore, although International Genetic Technologies had abandoned Nublar Island for several months already.

Yet after several months, the number of dinosaurs on the island actually seemed higher than when they were cared for in the past.

Sun Cheng did not bother with the dinosaurs on the island; these ancient giant beasts appeared powerful, but honestly, they were actually very fragile in front of human civilization, which had already stepped half a foot into the space age, and at most, they could only bully a single individual.

The total number of dinosaurs on Nublar Island had already exceeded four or five thousand, of which more than eighty percent were herbivorous dinosaurs, and omnivorous and carnivorous dinosaurs made up less than one-fifth of the total.

Based on Sun Cheng's experience, as long as a fully armed elite hundred-man company was commanded properly, eliminating those dinosaurs on the island was only a matter of time and how much supplies would be consumed.

Even if there were Tyrannosaurus Rex or Velociraptors on the island, as long as a large-caliber anti-materiel sniper rifle bullet hit the brain directly, the result could be imagined.

Sun Cheng had once had close contact with dinosaurs, and he never doubted the ability of the dinosaurs' unique scaly skin to resist damage.

But times had changed; humanity had long since passed the era of cold weapons.

And in the era of hot weapons, even a herbivorous giant that looked comparable to a high-rise building—a Diplodocus—would be laid low by a single RPG round.

If that didn't work, then two rounds would.

Therefore, Sun Cheng never considered the dinosaurs on the island a threat to himself; he treated the dinosaurs on Nublar Island as guard dogs and was already considering the feasibility of this.

When he was in the Transformers universe, his team of Decepticon engineers had once conducted a series of cruel experiments under his orders.

Sun Cheng had a group of humans who clung to him for power and status; they obtained a large number of violent criminals and drug lords from prisons in Brazil, and the Decepticon engineers injected diluted Energy Liquid directly into the bodies of these villains, or installed Control Chips in their bodies and even their brains, in order to find a way for him to get rid of the fragile human body.

Although no experiment had succeeded so far, in the process, the engineers had also collected a massive amount of test data.

For example, installing a Control Chip into the human body was indeed feasible, but the material and size of the chip, as well as the success rate of connecting directly to motor nerves or brain nerves, etc., still required more exploration.

Sun Cheng did not mind continuing his research in the real world.

After returning to the real world, having lost the Frenzy Body, he no longer had the kind of unscrupulousness he had in the Transformers universe, where even his thinking patterns seemed to have become like a Decepticon.

In the real world, he would not consider using people for experiments, even death row inmates were not considered for the time being.

However, Sun Cheng had absolutely no guilt about using animals for experiments.

There were so many dinosaurs on Nublar Island, and a long time ago, he had even stolen a lot of information from the Server of International Genetic Technologies on Nublar Island.

Unfortunately, he felt it was useless at the time, and he also learned afterward that the true technology center of International Genetic Technologies was on Sorna Island.

So Sun Cheng did not pay attention to it afterward, and it had always been kept by the micro-Decepticon he brought back.

These things could also be taken out for research in the future; perhaps he could even reverse-engineer some mature biological genetic technology from them.

And don't say, International Genetic Technologies really had some skills.

To be able to accidentally extract dinosaur DNA from a mosquito inside a piece of Ancient Amber, and then reverse-engineer and finally cultivate ancient giant beasts like dinosaurs.

Anyone with a little biological common sense knew how absurd this was.

Yet the result was successful, which showed the technical strength of the other party in the field of biological genetics.

"Crack!"

The sound of a branch being stepped on interrupted Sun Cheng's thoughts.

Following the sound, he immediately saw a robot soldier holding a Plasma Hand Cannon walking toward him.

And on that soldier's shoulder stood the squirrel-sized micro-Decepticon—Xiao Wu.

"Master, you need to return as soon as possible!"

As soon as Xiao Wu approached, a cold mechanical voice rang out.

"Something happened at home?"

Sun Cheng frowned slightly, though he was not too anxious.

When he came to Nublar Island, he left Yinhao at his residence; if there was an emergency, it could send a remote emergency communication to contact Xiao Wu.

However, once someone really made a move against Ye Qi, Yinhao would forcibly take her into the Safe House.

The Safe House also had soldier-type robots left by Sun Cheng, which could not be easily breached in a short time.

Therefore, Sun Cheng was not too panicked.

Xiao Wu jumped down from the shoulder of the soldier robot; after losing its control, the blue light in the soldier robot's eyes flickered slightly for a moment, and after recovering, it continued along the original patrol route and began to continue its vigilance.

Xiao Wu climbed into Sun Cheng's palm along his extended hand and said, "Just received two messages: the cargo ship sailing from Manila to Shencheng will arrive at its destination in four hours... Also, we received a remote radio warning signal from the Costa Rican government; a super Typhoon 【Clarissa】 has formed and will arrive at Nublar Island in at most three hours... Estimated typhoon level: Category 4!"

Sun Cheng's expression changed upon hearing this; Xia Country was also a high-risk area for typhoon damage, and Nandu was affected almost every year.

A Category 4 typhoon passing through was no longer enough to describe the damage to a small island like Nublar Island with a total area of only fifty-odd square kilometers; "disaster" was more appropriate.

"Have the robots assemble; we will evacuate first, and wait until the typhoon passes before coming back to continue work!"
