Chereads / HOPE CITY / Chapter 3 - chapter 3

Chapter 3 - chapter 3

In the central district of the city where powerhouse gathers, an attack breaks out in the L.A.B building

"Warning!! Warning!! The system under attack!!"

People rushing into a fortified

"Sir please forgive me in treating you in such a way," the head of the security department said apologetically carrying a young man on his back whom seems to be in his twenties, "but we will have to remain in the fortified room until backup arrives," he said locking the door.

In another location in the building, a clops breaks into the control room, if any evolved human was to see what was happening he or she would immediately attack the clops without thinking, they were man's worst enemy the bringer of the gas and the course of the annihilation of half of the human's population during the year, and the price for there head was also tempting.

The clops were like a black meatball with tentacles and one eye which seems to be able to move all around the surface of its body, they have different types of evolution some had strength, speed, and extending tentacles that can wipe and coil around its prey strangling it to death, while others could have electrically charged body able to shock anything they come in contact with like an electric eel and other evolutions, while some had hyper regenerative ability and some with laser-like eye able to born or melt whatever they set there eye on, the problem was they all looked the same some bigger though but that couldn't tell the type of evolution they have, giving you no way to come up with a plan before the battle.

The clops broke into the control room and used his electric-like evolution to not just shock and destroy the AI ( artificial intelligence) but hacked into it to control the building, it then proceeded to open the fortified room letting the attacks through.

In the fortified room, the guards were shocked when they saw the door open by itself.

A dark man walks in with his gang, his face riddled with scars but what was even more surprising was the red lump of squirming flesh sticking out in his left chest, in the same position of his heart, following his heartbeat, that was also seen in all the others.

"Hey, if it isn't the renowned Nester, the top leading scientist in the research of Breath and it's use in the earth, you were able to gather Breath into liquid form making it quicker for people to evolve by just drinking it by the age of 12, ever since then you have been seen as a threat to the clops now your threat level is even higher than Titan."

"Hey, you know i would never have taught someone like me would be able to come face to face with someone like you, talkless of even been the one to kill you" he says smilingly but with the scars on him it looks more horrifying

"Why did you betray humanity" Nester interrupts him in a calm tone neither showing fear nor anger,

"Huh, didn't think you would ask such a stupid question, you know we use to be dregs of the society some of us mutation was so unsightly that it made others detest us some openly attacked and cursed us while Some of us mutation were just so week that instead of strengthening us it weakened us. We wanted more, to be recognized, to be seen as somebody, but we figured we could never get our dreams fulfilled through this backward human race so we looked for another alternative, which was the clops" he looks at Nester with pity shakes his head.

"If you had seen their power and what they could amass you would know that you could never win this war. To them, you are just filling around trying to discover what they have already discovered centuries ago."

"Sir why are we listening to these brainwashed fools, after what they have done to humanity you still decide to serve them" the head guard interrupts him angrily read to fight.

"They gave us a new world, a new purpose, a world where the strong rules, you don't need money or education all you need his your body you were born with, to grow stronger and become a mighty being yourself" retorts another enemy standing left to the dark scarred man, he had overgrown sharp teeth sticking out of his mouth, up and down the jaw.

" We cannot waste our time with them, brother," the dark scarred man declared to the one with the evolved teeth " unfortunately they will have to die here today".

"I don't think so" retorts the head guard " protect master Nester, kill those bastard" he cries out, activating his evolution, which was a boost type evolution allowing him to pour all his energy into his speed. He brings out a hatchet and launches at the scarred man.
