Chapter 480 A Twisted Reunion (4)

The world inside the door was in complete contrast to the outside. While the outer area looked as if it was barely maintained, the inner section was squeaky clean. No speck of dust could be found on the white floors and walls.

Had it not been for the prison cells on both sides of the corridor, Ashton would have thought he was visiting some high-end hotel to enjoy the weekend.

Moreover, while the undead refrained from openly using alien technology in the cities, they had gone all-out for the actual prison.

"All these-" Anna was too stunned to speak her mind.

"I guess aliens have been a lot closer to us than we thought," Ashton mumbled.

[We have always been closer than you think. Haven't you heard of Area 51? Some type-2 civilisations treated it like a getaway trip from their monotonous life.]

"That's a... news to me," Ashton was a bit surprised about what Astaroth said, but it wasn't the strangest thing he had ever heard.

[I heard it was fantastic, and in exchange for visiting Earth, they had to pay in 'technology'. You won't believe how those people ripped off the humans.]

"You sure are quite jolly talking about our history?"

[Of course I am! Don't take it to your heart, but the humans weren't the brightest bunch. I heard some aliens even managed to form a group called the 'Illuminati' to rule over the Earth for centuries, and the humans had no idea about it! Well, some did, but no one believed them so-]

"Oh my, thanks for the 'modern affairs' lesson. But if you don't mind, I have a job to do."

Ashton wisely decided not to indulge Astaroth anymore, or his constant blabbering would irate him.

Back in prison, most of the cells were occupied by humans who were barely humans anymore. Most of them had been merged with animal DNA which gave them ridiculous looks.

As far as Ashton could see, agony and madness were the only things accompanying these 'lab rats'. Although he had convinced himself that he was no longer a human and did not care about them, Ashton's resolve shook violently as rage surged inside him.

At the moment, he had to force himself to think why he was there. Had it not been for his father, he wouldn't be able to hold back and destroy all the b.a.s.t.a.r.ds who dared to do something so cruel.

Anna seemed to read Ashton's mind and rushed to comfort him. Sensing her touch managed to snap him back to reality.

As the duo went through the gla.s.s cells, the occupants rushed to the opposite end of their cells. It was as if the mere sight of Ashton made them fearful for their lives.

Not one of them was bold enough to stand up to Ashton, which made him wonder what Mikosh could have possibly done to them for them to be so scared of him.

"Letting him live was a mistake." Ashton mumbled, "Thankfully, I'll have time to correct it."

At that moment, a man wearing a yellow hazmat suit appeared before them. Thanks to the white background, Anna easily spotted the man, and so did he.

"What are you doing here? Guards! GUARDS! there's an intruder!" The man yelled, not knowing the guards had already left the chamber.

"Stop yelling, for f.u.c.k's sake!" Ashton yelled back, startling the weak scientist.

"O-Oh, Chief Mikosh, It's you!" The scientist let out a sigh of relief, "I thought someone had invaded us, haha! Stupid me, how can that happen as long as you are there to protect us? Excuse my arrogance, but would you mind telling me who the woman is accompanying you? She doesn't seem to be undead-"

'G.o.d, this man talks a lot!' Ashton thought before coming up with an excuse.

Thankfully, the scientist solved his little problem himself, "Ah, you must be here to oversee the revitalisation of our most prized test subject! I completely forgot to inform you, but it has been rescheduled for next week. Please don't kill me~ haha, of course, you won't!"

Little did the man know how close he was to death, and with every word out of his mouth, he only got closer and closer.

At that moment, Ashton heard Anna's voice to telepathy, "Everyone seems to be scared of that man even more than you."

Ashton looked around. Much to his surprise, the occupant of each cell was s.h.i.+vering like they saw a ghost or something.

Their reaction, coupled with how casually the man was talking to Mikosh, was enough to let Ashton know the man under the hazmat suit was someone important, and someone important would surely know his father.

However, he couldn't directly ask the man about his father, or he might get suspicious. Therefore, Ashton decided to bring it up in the most casual way possible.

"Hmm, I see." Ashton replied, maintaining his role, "Well, we can't let her visit go to waste, can we? We should let Lady Bella see the result of your hard work herself."

"Woah, did something happen to you?" The man laughed, finally taking his helmet off, "You never showed any interest in them, and now you're asking me to give you a tour?"

As soon as the man took the helmet off, Ashton had to fight the urge not to puke. The bald man had a gla.s.s covering half his head, acting as a makes.h.i.+ft skull.

That wasn't all. The guy had augmented and mechanised his body to the point he could no longer cla.s.sify as an undead anymore. The closest thing he resembled was an Ena-bot than an Undead or human or anything born on Earth.

"I still don't care about them," Ashton replied, "But the President does. That's why she's here. The sooner you give her what she wants, the happier both of us will be."

"True, true. I would also be interested in the experiment's progress if I had my life on the line." The man casually replied, "Come on then, you'll be pleased to see our progress!"
