31. The Fall of Field Bio Research

There were sounds of loud gunshots. The Fallen Genetic army invaded with full force.

In addition to the troops, two vehicles similar to small tanks with oddly shaped cannons emerged from the boats. It didn't look like a heavy weapon at all. Just a large cylindrical tube without bullet mechanism.

Sandra, was panicked by the sudden attack. She reacted quickly by immediately typing an attack command to the Death Squad who was currently fighting below. The first generation of Death Squad as well as the new transforming Death Squad called Death Squad V.2, attempted to overcome the attacks of dozens of elite-Fallen Genetic troops.

However, no matter how good the Fallen Genetic troops were, in the end they were still overwhelmed by a group of Bio Research's genetically engineered troops. Especially after Sandra gave a transformation order to her new Death Squad.

There were screams of death on the not-so-large island as the V.2 Death Squad that turned into strange and terrifying beasts began slaughtering the Fallen Genetic troops.

Ordinary sharp bullets apparently had no effect on their bodies. They had protective coating engineered by Sandra's team. A genetically grown compound combined with kevlar.

The assault squad commander who was in one of the strange little tanks shouted,

"Spider Web! Now!"

The two tanks positioned themselves side by side then shot out a giant clump of nets toward both V.1 and V.2 of the Death Squad.

It didn't take long for the Fallen Genetic troops to trap nearly all the Death Squad into nets made of spiked steel fibers and containing a high dose of tranquilizer in each thorn.

Once trapped in the high-tech net, the Death Squad soon became powerless due to the instantaneous effect of the tranquilizer.

Only a few members of the Death Squad remained to fight and kill the Fallen Genetic troops. The fighting continued fiercely. Especially when the next boats landed with even more troops.

Captain Dev watched the whole scene with wide eyes in disbelief. Why wasn't there any early warning from Bio Research's advanced radar and satellite detection system? The Fallen Genetic troops came in large numbers using ships and boats. Their radar or satellites should be able to detect their position long before arriving on Mother Isle.

Captain Dev was still shaking his head as he turned to Sandra to give the order to retreat. They couldn't stop the attacks that came in succession, and many Death Forces were trapped and captured. Captain Dev was about to lower the control tower back below the surface where it would be safer, and an escape route was available.

But his hand was restrained by a soft yet icy cold arm. The Angel of Death's arm restrained him from pulling the lever. She looked at him with a threatening look. Captain Dev was taken aback. He looked for the guards. Only to see them lying dead in the corners of the room. He looked at Cindy. Hoping for help but then he remembered that these two deadly women were controlled by Sandra. Sandra!

Sandra was ignoring him. The woman was busy typing some commands on the keyboard. Immediately the battle below stopped. Sandra froze combat orders for the remaining Death Squad. They stood still motionless. The Fallen Genetic troops cheered in victory. They could have wiped out all the Death Squad that hadn't been captured. But they didn't.

Surprising! Captain Dev slowly came to a painful understanding. This was all Sandra's doing!

In just a split second, Captain Dev saw an opportunity. He rolled over while grabbing a button on the emergency exit.

The Angel of Death didn't react because Sandra hadn't given any orders. She could have killed the captain earlier, but Sandra had just ordered her to be on guard, so that the captain wouldn't disturb Sandra.

Captain Dev fell, and his body slammed to the hard surface of the island. He felt a broken arm and his thigh was wounded from the sharp edge of the door.

While limping, the betrayed Captain struggled to throw himself into the ocean after activating the transponder on his watch.

Sandra was quite taken aback by Captain Dev's reckless actions, but she couldn't be bothered by that. The high-priced task given by Fallen Genetic had been completed with great success. She was the number two person in Fallen Genetic now. It would be best if she immediately evacuated all the Death Squad to Fallen Genetic headquarters. That was all that mattered now. She wouldn't leave any traces. This island would be destroyed completely.

But before that, she and the Fallen Genetic troops would secure some of the secret facilities of Bio Research below. Mainly one main server which contained all V.2 engineering procedures. Sandra lowered the control tower. Followed by two squads of Fallen Genetic troops who were allowed to enter and escort her.

Sandra signaled the Angel of Death and Cindy to follow her into the headquarters.

Without much arguing, Cindy followed Sandra's orders. Cindy didn't expect Bio Research to be disabled so quickly. By Sandra! So many critical assets were seized. Death Squad, research, Angel of Death, and other important facilities.

In her mind, Cindy was glad this diabolical company was ruined. But secretly she was horrified too. Fallen Genetic might not be less dangerous than Bio Research. Moreover, there were people as smart and cunning as Sandra in that company.

Cindy remembered when Sandra was found locked in a secret part of the Bio Research One ship in order to save herself from the Fallen Genetic's attack. Apparently, it was part of Sandra's scheme to cripple Bio Research from within. Cindy shuddered. That woman was devious!

But this was also the best chance to save her teammates. Cindy kept her eyes and ears open. Opportunity would only come once. Ran had also been told in secret that she was fine. And the team leader already had the universal access card for the doors in this facility which she had stolen from Captain Dev's pocket. But how to tell Ran that the time had come?

And the chance came unexpectedly. Sandra apparently didn't want to bother with all kinds of prisoners or hostages.

"Cindy, kill all the captives in ward A-1. All of them!" Sandra gave orders while telling a team of Fallen Genetic troops to follow Cindy, who immediately moved to carry out the orders.

Sandra ordered Cindy to do the execution. Other than she had more confidence if the Angel of Death remained by her side, she also wanted to make sure that Cindy no longer had the emotional bonds with her teammates like normal humans.

As a precaution, she had whispered to the leader of the Fallen Genetic to bring a stun gun, if Cindy decided to disobey her orders.

Sandra continued her plan to evacuate all important research and facilities to be transferred to Fallen Genetic headquarters. It would take a full day to complete this task. Several men from the Fallen Genetic were asked to plant powerful explosives in every corner of Mother Island facilities. After the evacuation process was complete, Sandra would sink this island the same way she drowned Hell Island.
