Age of Mecha: Divine-grade Genetic Extraction

Chapter 23: Locke’s Secret

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Locke controlled his mecha to turn around and enter another path in the canyon.

He knew Peter had caught up behind him.

After all, the radar of an A-Grade mecha could detect the location of a single creature.

No matter how Peter tried to hide his aura, he couldn’t escape the scanning of the radar.

A moment later, Locke reached a dead end in the canyon.

His path was blocked by hard rocks.

From Locke’s expression, it seemed like he was very familiar with this place.

Then, he controlled his mecha to jump forward.

In reality, he was actually gathering strength.

The A-Grade mecha, which weighed more than ten tons, used its own weight to trample the ground, causing the ground to collapse.

The white mecha continued to descend with the collapsing ground.

However, Locke did not panic. Instead, he smiled.

Bang!

Then, the white mecha landed steadily. The huge impact caused the surrounding dust to fly everywhere.

He was in a cave with tunnels that led in all directions.

After the flying dust gradually dissipated, Locke piloted his mecha into the second cave on his left.

The height of this cave was enough for a mecha to pass through.

Not long after, a light appeared in front of the tunnel.

Locke knew that he was about to reach his destination, so he operated his mecha to speed up.

Not long after, a low voice came from the end of the tunnel, mixed with a few human words.

“Boohoo… You’re here… and… you brought a human…”

Locke controlled the white mecha to open its protective shield. Then, he jumped down from the mecha.

He looked at the huge creature in front of him and immediately crawled in front of it.

“My master! It is my honor to be your soul slave.”

“My master! I have brought you a special human.”

If the humans outside saw Locke’s current appearance, they would definitely look incredulous.

Locke was actually kneeling in front of a monster. The appearance of his offering was comical.

At this time, Peter had followed Locke into the underground cave.

When he couldn’t find his bearings in the cave, he suddenly heard Locke’s voice in front of him.

Hm?

Who was Locke talking to?

Could this be the Locke family’s secret base?

Peter wasn’t sure. Thus, he decided to go in and see what was going on.

Suddenly, a wild boar rushed out from another cave.

The boar had two long horns on its head.

“It’s a B-Grade mutated wild boar!”

Peter recognized it instantly.

After all, only B-Grade mutated creatures had two horns on their heads.

Back outside, Callie had knocked out a C-Grade mutated wild boar with her mecha.

C-Grade mutated wild boars only had one horn on its head.

However, why would mutated creatures appear here?

Could this be the Locke family’s secret base?

Peter currently still had two minutes to use his rage.

Seeing the B-Grade mutated wild boar charge over, he smashed the head of the wild boar with his fist.

Then, a system prompt sounded in Peter’s mind.

[B-Grade mutated wild boar genes detected. Extracting…]

[Extraction successful. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 50 times more rage.]

[Peter]

[Power]: 12,090kg

[Speed]: 47.2m/s

[Physical Strength]: 1350

[Rage]: 50 times (Instantly increases physical fitness by 50 times for a duration of eight minutes. There is a cooldown of 24 hours before it can be used again.)

Peter saw the improvement of his skills in the system.

He was elated.

Back then, he could activate 20 times more rage for a period of 10 minutes.

He was going to run out of time, but he still had to enter the cave later on.

He did not know what dangers he would encounter.

Coincidentally, just as he jumped down from the collapsed ground, he encountered a B-Grade mutated wild boar.

As a result, he obtained 50 times more rage.

Even though he only had eight minutes of use after activating it, it would be fine as long as it was activated at the critical moment.

Typically, there was no need to use his rage.

However, after obtaining 50 times more rage, Peter’s confidence increased.

Locke’s voice could be heard from the second cave on the left.

More than a minute later, Peter slowly approached the exit of the cave.

From his direction, he could see Locke kneeling on the ground.

In front of Locke was a huge meatball whose disgusting tissue was constantly squirming.

What kind of monster was this?

After Peter saw the monster, the system prompt appeared again.

[A-Grade queen insect genes detected. Extracting…]

[Extraction failed…]

[Warning: A-Grade queen insect has a genetic lock function. Its genes cannot be extracted.]

???

This was the first time Peter had encountered a gene that the system could not extract.

What the hell was a genetic lock?

Suddenly, the monster let out a roar that shook the entire cave.

“Boohoo… That damned human wants to steal my power… Kill him!”

As the monster roared, a large number of mutated creatures ran out from the other caves.

They were mainly vultures and wild boars.

Peter was no longer hiding. He immediately activated 50 times more rage.

Instantly, a power that was far more violent than 20 times more rafe enveloped his entire body.

“This feeling is too good!”

Peter rushed out of the cave and quickly reaped the lives of the mutant creatures.

One after another, the heads of the mutant creatures exploded.

Although the number of mutated creatures was terrifying…

There was no way for them to get close to Peter.

It couldn’t be helped. After all, Peter’s speed reached an astonishing level after activating 50 times more rage.

Peter’s shadow flickered left and right among the mutant creatures.

Locke flashed a terrified expression as he got up from the ground and stared at the scene before him with his eyes wide open.

He suddenly realized that Peter was far more terrifying than his master.
