The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 620: Do You... Want to Know the Truth?

Natasha's current strength had reached the Second Stage of Small Galaxy, making it a relatively effortless task for her to deal with three Winged Clan members who were at the Ninth Stage of Planet.

Witnessing the audacious posturing of the Winged Clan, a brilliant smile graced Natasha's face. Only those who were familiar with her knew that this version of Natasha was even more formidable.

Swish!

In the blink of an eye, Natasha vanished from the top of an Apocalypse Tank and reappeared right in front of the three Winged Clan members. With a swift kick, she struck one of them in the chest, sending them flying on the spot.

The other two Winged Clan members were taken aback, instinctively forming long energy spears and thrusting them towards Natasha.

They knew very little about Natasha. She was a woman who relished direct confrontations. Faced with the two energy spears hurtling towards her, she remained unfazed and met them head-on with her fists.

Crack! Crack!

Upon contact, the two energy spears exploded, and Natasha's fists remained unscathed as they obliterated the heads of the two Winged Clan members.

Initially, Natasha wasn't known for using her fists as a weapon. Like Ju Ling, she had relied on a Sniper Rifle for her attacks. However, upon realizing the redundancy of her role, she decisively abandoned her weapons and transitioned to hand-to-hand combat, a choice even Su Chen hadn't anticipated.

But Super Soldiers had their own freedom, and this wasn't a game that required adhering to predefined patterns. Su Chen respected Natasha's choice.

As a member of the same camp as Boris, Natasha had always been interested in combat. After all, she hailed from a nation known for its warrior spirit, where practically anyone could engage in a brawl with a bear.

It was clear from her performance that Natasha relished this feeling.

With three Winged Clan members dead, the remaining Winged Clan members had barely broken through the encircling fire, and by the time they reached the army, there were fewer than two hundred of them left.

"Human, you are digging your own grave!"

Even after losing three powerful Winged Clan members, the remaining aliens maintained their haughty tone, filled with disdain for humanity.

Natasha couldn't fathom what was going through the minds of these Winged Clan members. It was obvious who held the upper hand, so where did they find their confidence?

"Escort them to the afterlife."

A few minutes later, all that remained on the ground were the lifeless bodies of the Winged Clan.

Natasha learned from the Commander that the Winged Clan could use their fallen comrades' bodies to create new allies. So, she ordered the Soldiers to collect the Winged Clan corpses, and at the same time, she had Yun Ru study them.

There was one thing that left Natasha perplexed, though—the Winged Clan didn't seem to care about these corpses. At the very least, they hadn't sent a second wave of Winged Clan members.

"What exactly are the Winged Clan?"

Because there was a powerful Small Galaxy Ninth Stage entity among them, Natasha refrained from launching a rash attack. Instead, she established a temporary base around the Winged Clan's location, situated fifty kilometers away.

The Winged Clan corpses were transported directly to the base and delivered to Yun Ru's combat laboratory.

Yun Ru conducted a brief examination and discovered several peculiarities about the Winged Clan.

"Commander, have you ever encountered a race that seems to consist of nothing but muscle, aside from their brains?"

Yun Ru's expression was quite strange, causing Su Chen to raise an eyebrow. Were there really such races in the world?

"Wait a moment, are you talking about the Winged Clan?"

"Yes, just now I dissected a Winged Clan member and found that their body composition is highly unusual. Apart from their brains, which resemble those of humans, everything else is entirely different. I can't fathom how this kind of physiology could have survived," Yun Ru explained.

"If that's the case, how did Du Jing pass a full-body examination back then?" Su Chen pondered.

"Commander, Du Jing's body is undoubtedly that of a human. I conducted a comprehensive examination on her myself, and I can vouch for that."

"Well, that's puzzling. Could she switch between human and Winged Clan identities?" Su Chen wondered aloud.

"I can't say for certain, Commander, but I have a hypothesis. Do you remember that the Zerg Hive, which you eradicated, once mentioned that it stayed on Earth for a particular purpose, claiming that the object it sought was within ancient ruins? With your permission, I explored those ruins extensively but found nothing extraordinary."

"Furthermore, Les mentioned that the ruins had suffered damage and lost some of their contents. Could it be possible that what the Zerg Hive needed was lost within those ruins?"

"The lost item ended up in Du Jing's possession?" Su Chen voiced the question.

Yun Ru gave Su Chen a commendatory look. "Indeed, Commander. It's quite plausible that the item found its way to Du Jing, resulting in her dual identity and attracting the Red Crystal."

Su Chen nodded. Red Crystal was an incredibly peculiar substance that wouldn't typically react to humans. If something on Du Jing's person attracted the Red Crystal, it made sense.

"If my guess is correct, that item has fused with Du Jing's consciousness; otherwise, it would have been detected during her initial examination."

"So, the question remains, what is that item?"

Yun Ru shrugged. "I can only speculate up to this point, and beyond this, I'm at a loss. However, whatever it is that the Zerg Hive values so highly, coupled with the changes in Du Jing's body, it's undoubtedly something extraordinary."

"I also had Alice check Du Jing's records, and countless pieces of information confirm that she was once a human. Only that item could explain it."

Yun Ru's analysis was sound and well-founded. It appeared to be the truth, but it remained speculation until Du Jing was found.

At this moment, no one could see, not even the SpySatellites could detect, that the place where Du Jing was located seemed to shield everything.

"Everything you asked me to do, I've done. Can you fulfill the contract now?" Du Jing's voice was calm, devoid of emotion.

"Why resist me? By following what I've taught you, you can achieve what you desire in your heart. Isn't that better?" Another voice emerged from Du Jing's mouth, creating an eerie scene.

"In your heart, you harbor resentment towards your husband, towards humanity, towards everything. Why pretend to be a reasonable wife in front of your husband? This isn't what you truly want."

"Your husband killed your son, he made you lose your child, it's all his fault! Killing him would be too easy; only by taking away the human he cares for the most will he feel the utmost pain!"

Du Jing's voice grew increasingly fanatical, resembling a madman muttering to himself.

"Enough! I did entertain such thoughts, but I know it's necessary. Dunn betrayed humanity, and that's the only outcome! Even if Wu Cheng hadn't done it, I would have..." Du Jing's expression contorted in anguish.

"Is that so? Then... do you want to know the truth?" (To be continued...)
