By the time Lyon and his large army surrounded them, half an hour had passed.
Under the escort of several elite soldiers, Professor Jacob and some researchers, wearing fully sealed protective clothing and enduring the disgusting environment, entered the reactor room of the nuclear power plant and began to shut down the reactor.
Leon commanded a crane to lift the monster that was in a state of suspended animation and made it stand up. A dozen welders worked together to tie up the giant monster with thick iron chains and steel cables.
The effect of the super anesthetic was indeed amazing. No matter how they tortured the monster, it showed no signs of waking up.
Leon looked at the giant monster lying on the ground and snoring softly, thought for a moment, and then said to Mor who had been guarding him:
"More, take it back to the base first and find a sturdy cage to lock it up. I still need to think about whether there is any place where I can use it in the future."
Old Mor chuckled, spat a mouthful of thick phlegm at the giant monster's head, and said to Leon with a smile:
"Boss, why don't you just give this monster out of the shit pile a bath? It smells terrible."
"If we pull it back like this, it will definitely suffocate the people in our base."
Leon also thought so. This guy smelled of shit. If he wasn't wearing a protective mask, no one could stand the smell. But he still said to Moore cautiously:
"Rinse it with warm water, but be careful not to make too much noise. We can't guarantee that his suspended animation will not be interrupted by external interference."
"Okay, boss, leave it to me. We will find a safe place to lock it up."
The two chatted for a long time. According to Kevera's report, with the development in the past few months, the population of the prison base has approached 500 people. It has a combat force of more than 100 people and is basically self-sufficient in food, clothing, housing and transportation.
She also had no intention of being jealous of Amy and Peggy, and she told Leon very clearly that she did not care about formal weddings and did not plan to have children before she was thirty years old. However, if they had children, she would have to give the child her share of the family property.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Custer. Since we want to tame him, we can of course install bombs or poisons on his vital parts that can kill him at any time."
Leon nodded lightly. If he could have a humanoid weapon like this monster, it could indeed play a very good role in certain situations. Especially when dealing with super mutants with different abilities, having a thick-skinned meat shield standing in front of him could be of great use.
Professor Mallock had a smile on his face.
"so what?"
However, the huge noise caused by the battle eventually attracted most of the zombies and completely occupied the entire terminal camp.
"Based on our long history and experience of taming wild animals, as well as current knowledge from psychology and brain science."
With the help of Professor Amlin, they used the large communication equipment obtained from Jackson Airport to establish a civilian communication network covering 200 kilometers that was barely usable, thus enabling the communication capabilities to be delegated to every member of the organization.
The thin, bespectacled white professor took Leon into a special building with excitement on his face.
"Most of his brain has been eroded by radiation, which has damaged his brain function while also resisting the invasion of all zombie viruses."
"Tom's intelligence has dropped to the level of a three-year-old baby. He is unable to communicate with others through language, and sometimes he will just repeat his own name intermittently."
"According to the research and testing conducted by Dr. Melfa and me, as well as the information obtained from the Wickerton Nuclear Power Plant, the real name of this monster is Tom Cruise, and he used to be the reactor supervisor at the nuclear power plant."
After losing some members, Gray and his companions were ultimately unable to withstand the siege of the zombies and looters, and had to seek help from Kevira in the prison stronghold.
Leon stared at Professor Mallock's glasses and continued:
"You have studied him for so long, you should be very clear about the destructive power of this monster. I don't want our people to bear the damage at that time."
After more than two months of hard work, this biology expert from Georgia Institute of Technology has initially tamed the giant monster captured from the Waketon Nuclear Power Plant.
According to the red-haired girl's explanation, after Leon recruited some people, the terminal camp where Gray was located gradually gathered a group of survivors, and the number of people increased instead of decreased.
This kind of free and easy personality made Leon, who was feeling a little guilty, feel a little amused.
During these two months, Umbrella Corporation has developed very steadily.
After thinking about it, Lyon agreed to Colonel William's request and sent his Stinger Squadron over.
"You mean, although this monster is dangerous, it is not necessarily our enemy."
"What do you mean by that?"
She seemed very keen on playing the role of leader of the stronghold. Even when Leon invited her to manage important affairs in the base camp, the red-haired girl seemed unwilling to do so.
It was a huge cell built of steel plates and concrete, about 20 meters high, with the bottom more than 30 meters sunken into the ground. The entire cell was about 50 meters high, and the interior space was not large, less than 50 square meters.
Leon understood what Malok meant, raised his eyebrows, and asked:
A total of more than 40 hidden military outposts were established throughout the state of Georgia, basically bringing the entire state under the rule of the Umbrella Corporation.
Judging from the number of corpses they found inside the facility, these mutated zombies still have a habit of killing and devouring each other.
Leon looked down at the bottom of the cell. Tom was still stupidly watching the cartoon. He didn't feel sorry for this guy, but continued to ask Professor Malloch:
The red-haired girl stayed at Fort Benning for less than a week, stole a group of technicians and equipment from Lyon, and then left in style.
Professor Mallock pushed his glasses up again and said with some confidence:
"However, precisely because his brain has not been infected by the zombie virus, he is not actually very hostile to other life forms and will not think of infecting or devouring them."
"Yes, Mr. Custer, although Tom has only the intelligence of a baby, he can still rely on his instinct to distinguish who is the enemy and who is the friend."
When Leon was alone with her, the rich girl said without hesitation that her father also had several mistresses and illegitimate children, which was not uncommon in the circle of wealthy people.
After eliminating the hidden dangers of the three nuclear power plants in Georgia, Lyon did not make any big moves. Instead, he calmed down and made preparations step by step for the purge of the entire state of Georgia.
However, if he cannot completely control him and allows this monster to run wild inside his base or troops, it will definitely cause serious casualties to him.
Leon frowned even deeper. He looked at Professor Mallock seriously and asked:
He divided all the soldiers in the Umbrella Corporation into four teams of 300 people each, and equipped each team with logistics personnel, communications troops, armored troops and air force units.
If we also take into account the collection of supplies and resources from the entire state, this time will probably double.
After they led their troops to clear out the zombies outside the nuclear power plant, through careful reconnaissance, they did not find any super mutant monsters this time.
An ugly giant monster with a naked upper body and only a green linen skirt covering his crotch sat at the bottom of the cell, staring blankly at a huge screen hanging in the air, which was playing the Tom and Jerry cartoon that children loved most.
A month ago, the red-haired girl Kevila also came to Fort Benning. Although she was a little bothered by the fact that the two girls were pregnant, she accepted the fact calmly.
However, although these mutated zombies are powerful, they do not exceed the upper limit of what ordinary armies can deal with.
Having lost their camp and supplies, and with their companions killed and injured, Gray and the others finally chose to join Kevila's prison base.
However, this nuclear power plant is also different from the other two. According to the information found by Professor Jacob, this is only a very small nuclear power plant, built in a very short time, and the energy generated by the reactor is only a few tenths of that of the previous two nuclear power plants.
Professor Mallock shook his head with some regret and said:
"It's a pity, Mr. Custer, that he can't communicate with us using words."
"Also, I hope you can provide a trustworthy person to serve as Tom's trainer. We will try our best to assist him and ensure that we can control Tom without any mistakes."
"Professor Malloch, can this thing even understand cartoons?"
Gray and others from the terminal who once reached a cooperative relationship with Leon have also joined the prison base in Kevila.
"He must have been bitten by a zombie, but he came into contact with a large amount of radioactive material without dying or mutating. He may have even fallen into the cooling pool in the reactor, causing this unpredictable mutation."
This is a tedious and arduous task. According to the think tank's prediction, with the current population size and combat effectiveness of Umbrella Corporation, it will take them at least more than a year to clear out the more than 10 million zombies in the entire state of Georgia.
Then, Professor Malos said in an excited tone:
"If he takes the initiative to hurt others, it is probably just because he is hungry or feels hostile towards others."
Lyon speculated that perhaps it was because of this situation that there were not enough conditions inside the nuclear power plant to give birth to a super-mutated monster.
"Professor Mallock, I can allow you to tame him and provide you with the corresponding resources. However, you must ensure that you are absolutely sure to control him."
As the giant monster was transported away and the nuclear materials and nuclear waste in the nuclear power plant were recovered, a safety hazard in Georgia was finally eliminated.
He was silent for dozens of seconds, and finally said to Professor Mallock:
With the end of the nuclear power plant battle, although tragedies of one kind or another continued to occur around the world, Georgia gradually calmed down.
Time flies by and it is summer in August.
However, Lyon does not intend to give up this mission. If he can spend two years and absorb the population and resources of an entire state as a foundation, he should be able to gain a firm foothold in this world.
Moreover, according to Colonel William's intelligence, the mutated zombies inside this nuclear power plant facility are extremely ferocious, there are more of them, and their individual strength seems to be even stronger.
Leon looked at Professor Mallock with some surprise. He didn't expect that he had already thought of the insurance for this matter and took the initiative to propose changing the trainer.
However, two months ago, because their recruitment advertisement was too conspicuous, they were finally attacked by a group of long-planned looters. They were a group of very fanatical lunatics, and they had a lot of weapons and equipment. They even used swarms of zombies to besiege the terminal.
Then, this group of arrogant predators were defeated and eliminated by an air force consisting of five Black Hawk armed helicopters led by Kevila.
Therefore, Colonel William applied to continue to station the troops there and use the mutated zombies inside the facility to train the soldiers' coordinated combat capabilities and individual combat capabilities.
After finishing this work, Lyon stayed in the base for another four or five days, and suddenly received good news from Colonel William.
Professor Mallock had a smile on his face, pushed his glasses with some pride, and said to Leon:
"Mr. Custer, this monster actually has his own name. He calls himself Tom."
Professor Mallock's expression also turned serious, and he said:
"I am 90% sure that I can use drugs and animal training methods to tame him and make him a weapon in our hands."
After listening to Kevilla's story, Leon couldn't help but sigh that such things were both common and unusual in the end times. Other small camps did not have the assistance of powerful armed personnel like Kevilla. If they encountered a sneak attack from other forces, they would basically be wiped out.
Although it is impossible to entrust such an important position to a researcher, he likes such employees who know how to respond to the times.
After returning to the base, he had lunch with Peggy and Amy. Both girls were now almost three months pregnant. Although the changes in their bodies were not very obvious, they could barely be seen.
Anyway, there are no other combat missions recently. Sending them there can not only allow these special elite soldiers to protect the lives and safety of ordinary soldiers, but also train their experience in dealing with special mutated zombies, which is killing two birds with one stone.
Seeing this, Leon frowned, looked at Professor Mallock strangely, and asked:
"Mr. Custer, although Tom is a mutant of humans, we don't necessarily have to regard him as a human being."
"You said, he calls himself Tom, and this monster can communicate with you?"
That afternoon, Professor Malloch of biogenetics brought Lyon good news.
The middle-aged professor looked at the giant monster with regretful eyes and continued:
According to the locations of human cities and towns on the map, they began to clear out all large groups of zombies one by one, and at the same time, they recruited those scattered small groups.
However, as someone whom Lyon trusts absolutely, she is a good choice to guard the prison base in Tennessee.
After Kevila left, time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was from summer to autumn, and the planting base in Oak Village finally harvested its first batch of grain.
Although the number is small, it is like a sign of prosperity. Even if humans have lost the property left over from the old era, they can still survive by relying on their own hard work and bravery.
