Julius continued to stare with a frowning brow in worried. He still felt a tinge of anxiety about what would actually happen in the recording played on his monitor screen.
Even though technically this had already happened, Julius still felt the tension.
"Next what will happen is-"
"Shut up." Julius raised his hand to interrupt General Lennard. "No spoilers."
General Lennard closed his mouth tightly again. Right now Julius looked like he was watching a movie and didn't want to be disturbed.
General Lennard wants to say that everything ended well, even with a few disturbing distractions.
But it turned out that he wanted to enjoy the tension instead.
General Lennard felt tense and scared when he just saw the recording. He even jumped out of the chair and prepared to call Thomas to ask everything.
However, it turned out that his worry was something unnecessary.
Because a few moments later the situation went well.
It's just that, there was indeed a little damage that occurred in the experiment room.
The scene on the screen caught Julius' attention. He who previously forgot his cigar lit it again. Julius sucked it in deeply and then exhaled.
While subject number 2 was carrying out her killing spree, subject number 3 was no longer screaming and just stood helplessly in his tube.
Subject number 2, the woman whose body is now partially covered by ice, looks around after killing one of the unlucky crew members.
Her vacant eyes now emitted a bluish light. Even though her real irises are not actually blue.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt- "Uh-oh, looks like the situation is getting out of control," Thomas said.
Thomas then held his camera and raised it. So that the camera is now at eye level.
In that way, Julius who saw it felt as if he was staring at the scene himself.
Thomas walked backward while saying something.
- "Hey, call the guards right now. Hurry up!"
After saying that, Thomas spoke again.
- "Test subject number 2 has experienced unexpected symptoms. The orbs seem to have reacted and fused with her body so she can do what she did just now."
Despite being in a dangerous situation, Thomas still reported as if he was still in the middle of an experiment.
He still acts as a scientist who is supervising the experimental subjects and tries to give a good report.
Subject 2 started gathering ice power in her hands again. She looked around like a predator deciding which prey she wanted to kill next.
Not long after, her choice fell on a female scientist who looked shocked and scared.
From her eyes, Thomas could see who she had set her target on.
With alacrity, Thomas immediately pointed the camera at the female scientist who was the target subject number 2.
*SYUUUSSSHH!*
Subject number 2 threw freezing wind gathered at her palm.
As soon as it hit the poor female scientist, the cold wind immediately froze her like the male crew earlier.
- "Subject number 2 has found her target again. It seems we have succeeded in getting ordinary humans to use Magic, but we still don't know how to control them."
Thomas' voice continued to sound like he was narrating a grisly scene from a movie.
Julius also continued to stare intently at his monitor screen.
He puffed on a cigar and then exhaled the smoke.
Subject number 2 sends another ice needle to destroy the female scientist she has frozen.
Just like before, the female scientist turned into bits of ice on the floor of the experiment room.
- "General, if we are all dead and you find this recording, promise me that you will get my name recorded in the history books of all the schools in Ascaria."
Thomas said something that sounded like the last message.
He already knew that his life was being threatened. His calm voice wasn't because he wasn't afraid, but because his tone was always that way in any situation.
After finishing with the female scientist, subject number 2 started looking for new prey.
Now suddenly a smirk appeared on her lips as if she was enjoying all of this.
- "Look at that, General. Subject number 2 seems to have completely lost her identity and only indulges her subconscious desire to kill. Apparently, the power of Magic strengthens one's subconscious emotions."
Thomas continued to report. Subject number 2 finally found a new target.
She turned abruptly to Thomas who was holding the camera.
This made Julius feel shocked because he felt that he was the one who was getting that look.
- "Oh, shit. Looks like I'm really going to die, General."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSubject number 2 walked towards Thomas.
No one moved to help him because no one was stupid enough to jump in front of the killer with Magic power.
When there were only a few steps left for subject number 2 to reach him, the glass tube containing subject number 1 - Steve - exploded.
*PRAAANGGG!*
Shards of glass scattered in all directions.
After that, hot air came out of the tube and immediately made subject number 2 turn around.
Steve stepped out with a body emitting red vapor. His body was covered with sweat like he had been in the sauna for a long time.
"Whoa, what's going on here?" Steve said while spreading his gaze around.
He saw bits of ice that were clearly the remains of once a human. Then Steve stared at subject number 2.
"You did all this?" Steve asked.
Everyone there didn't know what to do. Confusion enveloped them seeing what happened.
Steve walked out of the tube like someone with his senses intact. While subject number 2 comes out with a personality that has turned into a monster.
- "Wow, there's been an unexpected development, General. You can see for yourself that subject number 1 can still think well. The Magic core doesn't seem to affect him. But, does he also get the same power?"
Thomas is still trying to report.
Julius was in awe of the young scientist. In a situation where he was so close to death, he was still able to say his thought.
Subject number 2 suddenly lunged at Steve leaving a frozen trail behind her.
