"Don't go!"
Xuan Mo ignored Liu You'er and continued to walk outside, pretending to be sad as she said, "You told me to leave, and now I'm heartbroken~"
"... shameless."
In the Underground Base, inside a laboratory, there was a cylindrical glass tank large enough to hold one person. Inside it was a naked man, fully submerged in an unknown liquid. He was secured in the center of the tank, completely immersed in the fluid.
Although he had an oxygen mask on his face and several transparent tubes inserted into his body, through which various liquids flowed slowly into him, there was no sign of pain on his face. Instead, he appeared peaceful, like a sleeping child.
Looking away from the glass tank revealed that the laboratory was actually the size of two basketball courts and three stories high. Inside, there were numerous identical glass tanks, estimated to be over a hundred.
Each tank contained a person, and upon closer inspection, it became apparent that these individuals looked remarkably similar. However, some were missing arms, others had twisted limbs, some had heads twice the size of an ordinary person, and others appeared monstrous with distorted features, sharp nails, and teeth.
"Doctor, I..."
A man walked into the laboratory and lazily sat down in a swivel chair. He rhythmically tapped his fingers on the table while staring at the person across from him who was typing on a computer screen. Just as he was about to continue speaking, he was ruthlessly interrupted.
"No need to say more. Liu You'er is still useful. Stay hidden and don't disrupt my plans. If you have time to spare, control your brother well. The higher his level, the more cunning he becomes. He even dares to hunt my beastmen. Next time, I'll dissect him."
Upon hearing this, a flash of killing intent crossed the man's mind, but his expression remained unchanged as he replied casually, "Alright~ It's only a few months~" He then sauntered towards the door.
As he approached within two meters of the door, a green light appeared from the circular scanner installed on it. Just as it was about to touch him, it transformed into a mesh that enveloped him and scanned his entire body. A mechanical voice stated, "Wei Yuan, authorization level B, entry permitted."
With a "thud," the ten-centimeter-thick titanium alloy door opened to both sides...
A City Base
The luxuriously decorated room is dominated by dark colors, with even the bed curtains made of black satin. However, the interior is quite bright. Upon entering, one can see a man reclining on the large bed, flanked by two identical beautiful girls.
The two girls appear to be under twenty years old; one holds a plate with a transparent wine jug, while the other carefully feeds the man wine from a goblet.
Ten meters away from the bed lies a heavily scarred man surrounded by shattered corpses. These bodies were once vibrant humans who fought alongside him just an hour ago, preparing to establish a new regime and live an equal life like that in L Base...
But now, he is all alone.
He kneels there, drenched in sweat, as drops of perspiration continuously fall to the ground.
He cannot comprehend how that originally innocent boy could have transformed into this. Was everything from back then just a facade?
Moreover, he cannot fathom how they, all being level three or higher fighters who had survived countless crises, could be so easily defeated by just those twins!
"Insect~ I treated you well, yet you repay kindness with malice, huh?"
"……"
Seeing that the man below remains silent, the person on the bed coldly commands, "Look up!"
The man initially refuses to comply, but a stream of black liquid forcibly lifts his head to meet the gaze of the man on the bed.
The young man appears to be around eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in a dark blue robe. He sits there coldly with his well-proportioned calves exposed, casually crossing his legs. The robe is so loose that it reveals large areas of his snow-white skin, which is quite alluring. Looking up further, his dark purple tousled hair falls casually over his eyes, complemented by a delicate nose and full lips that even make women feel inferior.
However, the coldness in his pupils and the slight purplish hue of his lips give off an unsettling feeling as if one is being targeted by a demon.
Seeing him like this, the scarred man cries out in anguish, "Yue Chen! I took you in! Treated you like my own son! But look at you! I truly regret it; had I known you were such a demon, I should have killed you back then! To spare others from your harm!!!"
"Hmph."
Yue Chen heard this and smiled, the dimple on his left cheek making him look innocent, but his tone sent chills down people's spines.
"In the apocalypse, still clinging to that foolish sympathy, you deserve to be used! Besides, if you hadn't helped me back then, do you think you would have survived until now?"
"You!!! You beast!"
"Thud~"
Black Water transformed into a fist and struck the big man's chin heavily. He was sent flying into the air, flipping over before crashing to the ground, his bones aching as if they might shatter.
Yue Chen watched his disgrace without an ounce of sympathy, and with a sudden wicked glint in his eye, he said, "Guess what? Is it possible that I knew about your plan in advance?"
"!"
The big man looked up in surprise at Yue Chen.
Seeing his expression, Yue Chen's smile widened. He gestured subtly, and a girl on his left immediately left. In less than five minutes, she returned with a cute girl around fifteen or sixteen years old, crying pitifully. Upon seeing the big man so injured, she cried even harder but still hesitantly walked over to Yue Chen.
"Soft, how could you..."
The big man was completely stunned upon seeing his daughter. His temples throbbed; he hoped he was wrong.
Yue Chen gently said to the girl, "Soft, can you tell your father what happened?"
Soft glanced at him fearfully before summoning her courage to say, "Dad, I overheard your plan and told Brother Yue. I didn't want you to fight. Boohoo~"
"Soft!"
The big man's injuries were too severe; he could only lie on the ground in disbelief, shaking his head. He couldn't believe that it was his own daughter who had harmed everyone. No! It must be that demon who taught Soft to say this! It had to be!
He glared at Yue Chen with hatred and used his last bit of strength to get up and charge at Yue Chen, shouting, "I'll fight you!"
A dazzling light erupted from her body, charging towards Yue Chen.
"Bang!"
The big man's body exploded, leaving nothing behind, while Yue Chen and the others remained unharmed, with not a single trace of damage to the room.
Soft collapsed on the ground, staring in terror at the black liquid before her. Just moments ago, when her father emitted that flash of light, the Black Water instantly enveloped him. Then, at the moment of her father's explosion, it absorbed all of his energy, leaving his body completely dissolved.
Yue Chen scoffed, saying, "Did you really think detonating the Core would change anything? How foolish!"
"Liars!"
Seeing her father dead, Soft pounded her fists against Yue Chen's chest in grief, repeatedly saying, "You said if I lied, you would spare Dad! You liar! Big liar!!!
The absorption of the suddenly released energy had already caused some discomfort for Yue Chen, and Soft's current actions only added to her annoyance.
"Slap!"
Soft's face was struck hard, sending her tumbling to the side. For a moment, she forgot the pain and simply stared at Yue Chen in shock, shaking her head and murmuring, "Brother Yue isn't like this. Brother Yue isn't like this..."
Yue Chen found her reaction even more repulsive. However, she put on an innocent smile and cruelly said, "Brother Yue? You mean that idiot Yue Xingze?"
