When they arrived in that enclosed small space, they must have been unconscious for a long time.0

Because by the time Chloe ran out with that timid Werewolf, the sky outside was already completely dark.0

It was pitch black, and they didn't know where they were now. Not even a single star could be seen in the sky.0

It seemed that even the heavens despised the Viper Group, unwilling to grant them even a single star.0

Chloe babbled on excitedly by herself, while the Werewolf followed closely behind her, afraid of losing her if he wasn't careful.0

After walking for a while, Chloe realized that this was very likely the headquarters of the Viper Group.0

Because this place was just... too big.0

The surroundings were all buildings, mostly low and inconspicuous.0

But just by peeking through the windows, one could see various high-tech products arranged inside the houses.0

Chloe glanced briefly into one of the rooms and quickly averted her gaze.0

There was nothing special about it, except that there were people inside.0

But even with that quick glance, Chloe could tell that it was probably a biological laboratory.0

In other words, most of those rare, unfamiliar monsters probably originated from here.0

Chloe felt somewhat absurd.0

After pondering for a while, she felt it was necessary to go take a look at that place.0

Just as she was thinking this, Chloe's ears twitched.0

Before her brain could make a judgment, her body had already yanked the Werewolf behind a large rock.0

Not long after, footsteps were heard.0

Several low voices sounded:0

"Did the boss really put the poison back?"0

"Yeah, he said he's not someone who doesn't keep his word."0

"Then what about those two prisoners?"0

"The boss said he'd handle it."0

"Alright... Hey, did you hear something?"0

As soon as the words fell, Chloe quickly covered the too-rapid breathing of the person beside her.0

The Werewolf was trembling, his eyes almost rolling back, his psychological resilience was terribly poor.0

At a glance, he looked like he had Parkinson's disease.0

Chloe kept one hand on her waist, planning to give them a spray of bullets as soon as those Viper Group people came.0

As the footsteps got closer and Chloe had already drawn her dagger, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside:0

"You two, what are you sneaking around for?"0

Chloe's pupils constricted—had they been discovered?0

Just as she was thinking this, two more voices came from outside:0

"Nothing, nothing, boss."0

"We just thought we saw something over there."0

The one they called boss, who was the Black Robed Man, said impatiently:0

Before long, Chloe's face had become the image of the dead researcher.0

She fastened the work badge securely, silently went downstairs, and then boldly pushed open the door of the biological laboratory, swaggering in.0

No one paid attention to her.0

There were many people in the laboratory, all busy with their experiments.0

Everyone was focused on their own tasks, too busy to notice.0

Naturally, no one noticed this small researcher who had suddenly entered.0

Chloe touched the hair on her forehead and walked forward naturally.0

It wasn't until she entered the lab that she realized how big this place was. The top floor was the least important, the main areas were the underground levels.0

Chloe made her way to the elevator without any obstacles.0

As expected, someone stopped her:0

"Where are you going?"0

Chloe smiled:0

"Going to the fifteenth underground floor to see Professor Sotos."0

She waved the documents in her hand:0

"My team leader asked me to deliver these."0

The staff member guarding the elevator took the documents and looked at them, and after seeing the private seal at the bottom, he directly approved.0

Chloe took back the documents, bowing politely:0

"Thank you."0

With that, she walked into the elevator.0

These documents... she had obtained them by eavesdropping on others' conversations and then knocking out a researcher and taking them from his hand.0

It was almost too easy.0

The elevator went all the way down.0

When she reached the fifteenth underground floor, Chloe stepped out of the elevator.0

The first thing that caught her eye was the laboratory with a noticeably fewer number of people.0

Fewer people meant she couldn't blend in as easily as before.0

Chloe collected herself and walked step by step according to the map.0

Professor Sotos' position was at...0

After passing through several corridors and glancing over numerous work badges, she finally stopped at an experiment table:0

"Professor Sotos."0

As the words fell, an old man with graying hair and a serious face turned around.0

Chloe smiled slightly:0

"These are what my team leader asked me to give you."0

Professor Sotos didn't say a word, directly taking the documents from her hand.0

From start to finish, he showed no intention of speaking to Chloe.0

Chloe wasn't bothered. She said openly:0

"Professor, my team leader asked me to learn more from you. Is there anything you need help with?"0
