Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

"Future of Humanity?"

They repeated, their voices a mix of doubt and curiosity.

It was a bold statement, but coming from someone as important and influential as Governor Snider, it made them feel a rush of excitement.

"What you're about to see is an overview of a secret project that the government is finally ready to reveal. This is still in the testing stage, so this mission is also a great opportunity to showcase what it can do,"

He let his words sink in for a moment

"This is Project Behemoth." As he spoke, images of a massive airship appeared on the screen.

The ship was as long as a skyscraper turned sideways, its surface covered with various platforms, antennas, and cannons.

Large hangars and landing strips stretched across the top, clearly built for launching smaller planes.

The entire vessel look like a small fort designed for both war and travel, with every part of it serving a purpose.

Everyone was speechless, and Snider seized the moment to boost their morale.

"This project is our latest development aimed at countering the threats posed by the miasma, and it could be the key to turning the tide in our favor."

The hunters exchanged glances, intrigued but skeptical.

Airships were notoriously difficult to operate outside the barrier due to the miasma.

The toxic fog could damage the propellers almost immediately, making traditional air travel extremely risky.

Because of this, deploying a giant airship like the Behemoth would be even more dangerous.

Snider understood the hesitation in the room and decided to address it.

"I understand that some of you might have doubts, but I've brought someone to clarify everything," he continued, gesturing toward the door.

CLICK!

A middle-aged man entered, wearing an orange jumpsuit adorned with the logo of the Department of Technology on the chest.

"This man is Engineer Evan Brooks one of the leads of the Behemoth," Snider introduced,

"Will this thing really fly? It'll just suck up all the miasma," the young mercenary pointed out, crossing his arms with skepticism.

The others nodded, sharing similar concerns.

This issue had plagued the world ever since the dark miasma began spreading. Because of it, they had relied heavily on trains for transportation.

Evan stepped forward to address the question.

"The ship doesn't run on traditional propeller technology," he began, his voice steady as he stepped closer to the screen.

His finger traced along the sleek outline of the airship displayed before them. "It uses advanced electromagnetic propulsion, which allows it to bypass the dangers of the miasma."

The representatives exchanged glances.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

This breakthrough was huge. If this technology could be mass produced, it could change everything. Stay tuned with empire

Evan could sense the growing interest in the room so he explained further.

"With the Behemoth, not only can we safely enter dangerous territories, but we can also transport troops, resources, and equipment faster than ever before. This airship has a max speed of 1,200 kilometers per hour."

"A thousand two hundred!" The sturdy looking mercenary shot up from his seat, disbelief written all over his face.

Even their fastest mode of transport, the bullet train, could only reach speeds of 300 kilometers per hour.

Evan smiled, nodding. "That's right. This isn't just about speed, though. The Behemoth has advanced shielding that will protect it from air friction, miasma and any external attacks. It's also equipped with enough firepower to handle any threat that comes its way."

Everyone was very impressed after learning more about the airship.

Meanwhile, Snider couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

There was an old saying he'd often heard in the Central Region:

'When the government reveals something to the public, it's only because that technology was already outdated. '

Still, in the eyes of many, it was revolutionary.

One of the soldiers raised a hand "What's its current status? Can it be deployed immediately?"

Evan nodded. "Yes, we have received clearance to mobilize the Behemoth for this mission. It's currently being prepared ."

With all the new information about the airship and its advanced capabilities, the mood in the room shifted.

The uncertainty and hesitation that had been thick in the air slowly melted away, replaced by a growing sense of confidence.

With that, the meeting ended on a positive note.

"Evan, I have a question," Snider said, as the two of them decided to stay in the meeting room for a bit longer.

"Of course, Governor. What's on your mind?"

Snider leaned against the table, his expression serious.

"How confident are you that the Behemoth can handle the miasma? I need to know that we won't be sending our people into a death trap."

"The electromagnetic propulsion system is designed specifically to navigate through it. We've run simulations, and the results were promising.

Snider rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "How about the shield technology? "

"Yes, Governor. The shield technology uses the same principles . We call it the electromagnetic shield. The concept is to envelop the ship with a magnetic field that pushes aside anything that comes into contact with it."

"How do you create the magnetic field ?"

"We create it using a series of specialized generators installed throughout the ship to send electric current,"

"Excellent. It sounds like you've really covered all the bases. It must have taken you years to develop this," Snider said, trying to sound impressed.

Evan smiled, a hint of pride in his eyes.

"Thank you, Governor. It's been 20 years of hard work, and our team has put in countless hours on this project. We faced a lot of challenges, especially with the technical aspects. This technology is our pride and joy,"

"Good job,"

[Original Skill Created : Electromagnetic Shield]

Midflight, Reign casually realized he could harness the electricity in his body to create a magnetic effect, pushing and pulling objects around him.

It all clicked when he remembered how the sand beneath him shifted whenever he walk around.

'Oh, free skill, sweet!' he chuckled to himself after getting a new ability that took him three seconds to create.
