Chapter 19

The cannon in He Linbing’s hand emitted a brighter flame than before. The special ability user also used his power to hit him.

Han Qichuan changed directions in the air and wanted to dodge, but his movements suddenly paused. It was at this moment that he missed the best opportunity to dodge. Even though he quickly adjusted his position, he still suffered a portion of the attack and fell back to the ground.

Roar—Han Qichuan roared angrily.

He Linbing was a little surprised. She had thought that she would not be able to hit him, but it seemed that he had been injured before.

“Increase the frequency of the attack. He should be injured. Don’t give him a chance to catch his breath,” He Linbing shouted.

The ability attacks were densely packed, and Han Qichuan kept dodging. After dealing with those dozen or so mutants, his stamina had yet to recover, let alone healing old and new injuries, making it increasingly difficult for him to dodge.

He Linbing’s weapon was on cooldown. At the same time, she was watching for the best opportunity to kill him in one shot.

In the end, Han Qichuan was hit by a psychic ability user and his movements were restricted. He was struggling crazily.

Even now, the weapon has yet to fully cooldown.

He Linbing forcefully activated her weapon. Even if it was scrapped, she had to eliminate this danger.

The power modulation was the greatest. The remaining energy from the two Level 3 nucleis and one Level 4 nuclei were all mobilized.

The outer shell of the weapon looked a little red. An extremely dazzling beam of light shot towards Han Qichuan.

Han Qichuan, who was trapped, could not dodge in time. He could only watch as the light approached him. His vertical pupils quickly constricted. He felt a fatal threat from this attack.

Boom—

The attack hit, and flames exploded. Rolling tongues of fire wrapped around it, and it took a while before they began to disperse.

No one saw that after the attack hit, a black shadow on a building in the distance took a look and quietly hid in the darkness.

When he turned around, something in his hand flashed with a metallic luster under the moonlight.

It seemed to be a whistle.

Cang Qing and the others were all nervous as they stared fixedly at the spot where Han Qichuan had been.

They definitely wouldn’t be able to withstand such a powerful force!

Through the flames, what they saw was not the charred corpse of a mutant, but a golden and transparent hemispherical energy shield.

Inside the energy shield, the monster from before had disappeared. In its place was an unconscious young man in charred clothes.

What was this?

abilities or new weapons?

Was this mutant a human or a monster?

Cang Qing and the others seemed to have many questions.

He Linbing glanced at him and had a rough answer to his current state.

This person must have made a mistake in the experiment and was not completely mutated. He might have relapsed for some reason just now.

As for who saved him, she would know the answer later.

Sure enough, before the flames were extinguished, a blue figure walked out from the corner of the building on the left.

Cheng Jun and He Linbing were surprised. They asked in unison, “Boss?”

When the others heard this, they all had puzzled expressions. What boss? They only saw a beautiful girl. Speaking of which, why was a girl like you in such a dangerous place at night?

The blue figure was indeed Yun You. Originally, she thought that she was going to save that large group of people, but in the end, she saved Han Qichuan.

Yun You saw the second he stopped in the air clearly. She probably knew the reason.

There was already a wound on his back. The moment he changed direction in the air, he must have pulled it. Perhaps it was because there were some new injuries previously.

When Yun You walked out, she had been thinking about how to bring him back.

Hearing someone call her boss, she subconsciously looked over. It was actually the previous customer.

In the underground laboratory.

The delicate containers contained all kinds of nutrient solutions. The ones soaking in the nutrient solutions were none other than mutants of various forms. Some of them even had broken limbs.

Behind the container, Mu Zhao, who was wearing a white lab coat, was controlling a machine in front of her. The top of the machine was also a container, but it was relatively more exquisite.

Beep—

The light on the machine suddenly glowed green. The monster inside the container stirred slightly.

“Hahaha, I’ve succeeded. I’ve finally succeeded.” He laughed so loudly that he was almost sick. “If I get the Prism Fruit again, his strength will definitely be stronger and more stable.”

At this moment, someone came in from outside and walked to his side.

Mu Zhao glanced at her and walked to the other room. He took off his gloves and lab coat.

“What happened?”

“Subject No. 1 has been discovered.”

“Didn’t the report say that he’s dead? Hehe.” He frowned, and his tone was vaguely angry.

The person who reported the news relayed the details of what he had learned and the scene of No. 1 being attacked.

“In the end, no one was left behind to confirm if he was dead or not?” Mu Zhao asked.

“healer, the outcome of such an attack should be quite obvious…”

Mu Zhao raised his hand to stop her from continuing. If he did not see it, then the outcome was inconclusive.

Mu Zhao rubbed his temples. He really had a headache. The original intention of those mutants was to be used by experimental subjects like No. 1 to improve. How could they be No. 1’s match?

This time, the new mutant’s strength was basically equivalent to an early-stage Level 3. Its level was lower than Number 1 to begin with. He had wanted to test the strength of this batch, but now it seemed that he had wasted his resources for nothing.

However, it did not matter. After all, No. 2 had succeeded, so No. 1 was useless to him. However, he was more interested in who had cured his potion.

“How interesting!”

“The information is wrong. Let them receive their punishment. Also, if No. 1 isn’t dead… Forget it, don’t care about No. 1. Now, let’s mainly investigate who cured No. 1’s poison?”

A devilish smile appeared on Mu Zhao’s lips. Although he had wasted that batch of products, it didn’t seem to be such a loss now.

“Yes.”

“Wait, and that person called He Linbing, find a time to deal with her.”

The power of that weapon was indeed a little dangerous. It could convert nucleis and abilities into weapon energy. Unfortunately, she was not part of his team. If it was a stumbling block, it needs to disappear!

“Yes.”

Cang Qing’s leader was also puzzled as to why Cheng Jun and He Linbing called her boss. He patted Cheng Jun’s shoulder and asked in a low voice, “What’s going on?”

He Linbing looked at Cheng Jun and asked, “Didn’t I ask you to inform the purchasers? Didn’t you say anything?”

Cheng Jun blinked innocently. He was wronged! He had looked for him, but the leader was busy with other things at that time. In the end, he forgot.

“Leader, it’s a shop owner that He Linbing and I met this afternoon. I’ll tell you in detail later,” Cheng Jun braced himself and explained.

The leader didn’t say anything else. He stood on the defensive wall and looked at Yun You.

“I’m sorry. I have to take this person away today,” Yun You said to everyone. Her tone was slightly apologetic, but firm.
