CHAPTER 462: CHAPTER 428: COUGAR

The four armed personnel, holding on to a stroke of luck, launched a counterattack...

Three people stood up at the same time, blindly firing in three directions.

Scarface Pot Lid, while his companions were firing, threw a Smoke Bomb in front of him, and as the dense smoke began to spread through the woods, he leaped out from cover and started sprinting in one direction...

According to the principles of rolling retreat, this guy should have stopped after running about 30 meters to establish cover for his comrades, but instead, he abandoned them and sprinted back the way they came.

Just as he had run nearly a hundred meters, he suddenly heard the ’hoof hoof’ sound of ferocious beasts coming from beside him...

When he instinctively turned to look, he saw two cougars that had somehow broken free from their lassos blocking his path.

A normal cougar is not very large, but those driven to grow by drugs are a different story...

These two cougars had a size comparable to African lionesses, and their muscle lines were extremely prominent.

When they threaten you, no sane person should ever turn their back on them.

The escaping Scarface Pot Lid knew too well the consequences of provoking these wild beasts; he fired a shot into the air, hoping the gunshot would scare them off, but instead, it put the two cougars into an attack stance...

Seeing the trained cougars suddenly split to both sides and then pounce towards him, Scarface fired desperately at one of the cougars...

"Bang bang bang bang..."

As bullets hit thin air, he felt a sudden heaviness in his body, then a stabbing pain around his neck, and as he fell to the ground, he saw the other cougar pounce forward, opening its big mouth to bite at his face, and he let out a desperate scream...

"Ah..."

The remaining three armed personnel, after being deceived by Scarface choosing to flee on his own, decisively chose to surrender.

The fight was simply impossible...

"Don’t shoot, we surrender..."

Mountain Eagle watched a guy stand up from cover, spin around in place with his hands holding the gun, then drop his rifle at his feet, and raise his hands while shouting...

He didn’t rashly leave cover, but instead said through his radio, "There are two more of you; come out, put down your weapons and gather together..."

The first to surrender, the middle-aged man shouted loudly, "There’s been a misunderstanding between us; we are employees of the Dimension Card Company, we discovered wild beasts attacking humans here, so we were ordered to come and investigate..."

Mountain Eagle didn’t expect this guy to be so clever; he peered out to look at the middle-aged man going the wrong way, then pinched the radio smilingly and said, "Well, you’ll have to surrender first, then go explain that to the State Police...

I’ve recorded your movements; I think you’ll need a pretty expensive lawyer to convince the State Police."

After Mountain Eagle mentioned the State Police, the remaining two finally slowly came out, dropping their weapons and raising their hands in the air, spinning around in place, then gathering together in one direction and seeking out where Mountain Eagle was...

Once Mountain Eagle confirmed they had no capacity for resistance, he put away his VSS, drew his pistol, and quickly approached, ordering them to remove their tactical vests, pulled out large zip ties to bind their hands to each other, and then conducted a quick search...

After confirming they carried no weapons, Mountain Eagle gave each of them a gun-butt to the head, taking them down.

By this time, the fight on Butcher’s side had also ended...

Two giant wolves were captured because they stepped into an animal trap; the rest of the crazed giant wolves, while assaulting the Hunter in the tree, were taken out by the slowly calming hunters surrounding them.

The battle lasted only about ten or so minutes, but those Indian Hunters felt as though a long time had passed, drained both mentally and physically, unable to muster their fiery anger and fighting spirit from before.

Butcher comforted the dispirited Hunters a bit before delving deeper into the forest to find his boss...

Looking at the torn and unrecognizable corpse on the ground, as well as the two cougars with their ears pulled back, lying on the ground as if in extreme fear, Butcher raised his shotgun...

Mountain Eagle held two devices similar to radios, gestured to Butcher to stop, smilingly handed him a radio and said, "Try it, it’s quite interesting...

The red button is for pain, the green button is for soothing, the white button for giving commands, the black button for stimulation.

The digit 1 is for attack, 2 for stop, 3 to sit, I haven’t figured out the rest yet..."

Butcher frowned as he glanced at the remote in his hand, decisively pressing the red button, and one of the cougars let out a frantic scream in an instant, curling up as though struck by an electric shock, then opened its mouth to let out a piercing roar.

The other cougar, seeing its companion’s reaction, retreated several meters instantaneously, lowering its head and looking toward Mountain Eagle and Butcher with fearful eyes.

Butcher released the red button, watching that cougar instantly whined longingly and collapsed on its belly breathing heavily...

"What in the world is this thing?"

Mountain Eagle beckoned at the cougar that had retreated far away, picked up the controller and pressed the white button and said ’come’...

Watching the cougar clearly very resistant, but still slowly crawling over with its limbs touching the ground, he said with a smile, "This is the controller for these wild beasts...

They have a little box implanted in the beasts’ bodies that can translate their commands into neural signals, and through training, they understand and form physiological instincts."

Butcher, looking at the collapsed cougar, shook his head and said, "Training wild beasts through pain, these people aren’t much better than Circus folk."

Mountain Eagle shook his head and said, "No, it’s different, they use a much more sophisticated way."

Saying this, Mountain Eagle pointed at the collapsed cougar and said, "These people are professionals; they know how to provoke the greatest pain with minimal harm.

They don’t need a whip, just an electric shock device on your nerves, and with the press of a button, they can make you feel so much pain that you become desperate.

Have you ever had a toothache?

It feels like when a tooth nerve is triggered during a toothache, it’s a pain that goes deep into your soul."

"The whip of the circus is nothing compared to this method!"

Butcher shook his head and said, "Actually, there is no difference. I don’t think training animals is a worthwhile use of time."

Mountain Eagle glanced at Butcher and said with a smile, "Do you still hold that opinion after having been attacked by giant wolves twice in a row?"

With that, Mountain Eagle glanced at the cougar that wasn’t particularly obedient and sighed, "Those people are seeking a breakthrough; they’ve experimented with many kinds of fierce beasts...

In reality, any one of those beasts is deadly. Any trainer with a gun and a fierce beast could handle a fully armed squad in the woods.

But I know they’ve eliminated most of the fierce beasts, and the cheaper and more organized Magangxie Wolf has become their target.

Through genetic screening and rigorous training, those Magangxie Wolves can quickly form combat effectiveness.

Under remote human command, they can carry out complex tasks with their formidable natural abilities.

They can carry bombs, guided remotely by humans, through challenging terrain to a specific location to detonate...

That’s a task current police dogs can’t accomplish!

If they want, every trained Magangxie Wolf can be a terrorist reservist.

When they charge, 99% of people in the world can’t hit them, even with guns!

Buddy, those people are not running a circus, these trained animals are not companions but weapons!

What exactly do the people developing these weapons want?"

Butcher was silent for a moment before saying, "War. Those people want war!"

Mountain Eagle nodded slightly and continued, "Apart from killing, I can’t imagine how they could recoup the huge costs of development.

Using these creatures merely for training shepherd dogs to herd cattle and sheep would bankrupt them!"

Butcher nodded slightly, then looking at the two cougars with their bellies to the ground, he asked, "What about them?"

Mountain Eagle grinned and showed the controller in his hand, "They are evidence, of course we need to take them back.

You’ve caught the giant wolf, right?

Now that we have enough samples, human and physical evidence, it’s time for the FBI to step in."

Butcher, frowning, responded, "Sir, they have GPS on them. Given their approach today, bringing them back to camp might invite danger there."

Mountain Eagle waved his hand dismissively and said, "If the place is full of the FBI, ATF, State Police, and media journalists, it won’t be dangerous.

For animals, weakness invites danger!

For humans, even the weak can deter hotheaded folks by demonstrating the consequences."

Mountain Eagle patted Butcher’s shoulder and said, "Trust me, those people are not afraid of us, but they definitely fear exposure.

Now we need to keep the matter within the scope of the Evil Beasts hurting people, make Dimension Card Company believe there’s room to negotiate, hold them off, make them anxious, and then when Black Fox takes the stage with Jungle Ant, that’s when we deliver the fatal blow!"

Butcher shook his head and said, "I don’t quite understand why you’re so sure Black Fox is coming for them, but you’re the boss; you call the shots!"

Just as Mountain Eagle was about to explain further, Daria and Luna approached...

"Boss, there’s news from Redick..."

As she spoke, Daria looked at the unrecognizable dead bodies on the ground and instinctively tried to cover Luna’s eyes, but she was a moment too late...

The little girl didn’t seem to have a special reaction to death, not even when that guy died a rather ghastly death; it didn’t stir Luna...

Instead, the surprise on the little girl’s face came when she saw the two cougars with their ears pulled back...

"Daddy, they are Rick and Morty..."

Mountain Eagle hesitated and then pulled back Luna, who wanted to touch the cougars, saying, "Do you know them?"

Luna nodded vigorously, "They’re training stars. Every time I train with 08, they practice jumping squares beside me...

I like them, every time I fed them with squirrels and mice, they were very happy!

Are they free now too, right?"

Mountain Eagle held onto Luna firmly, shaking his head helplessly, "They are not Big Buck and Little Buck; they’re dangerous for everyone at camp..."

Upon hearing this, Luna’s eyes widened, "Then can we let them go?"

Mountain Eagle shook his head, "That’s not possible either, they are evidence..."

When Luna heard this, she grinned happily, "So we can invite them to visit the camp?

Daddy, don’t worry, I’ll watch them, as long as they’re full, they’ll be very happy!"

Mountain Eagle looked at the two cougars staring at his little girl and shook his head helplessly, how could he be reassured?

However, seeing Luna’s expectant face, he handed the controller to Butcher and said, "Put collars and muzzles on them, better put shoes on them too, we’ll invite them to camp as guests..."

Saying this, Mountain Eagle picked up Luna who was sticking her butt out wanting to approach the cougars, looked at Daria, and asked, "What were you saying just now?"
