Chapter 44 (1/2)
There was a complete stillness under the dark sky, and a lone combat vehicle hovered above the reed marshes.
The car was covered in beast repellant powder, the one that frogmen and ultra-beasts were repulsed by, allowing Qin Feng to conduct his operation without disturbance.
Soon, two people appeared on the river bank.
“Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!” Xiaobai called out before a silver light appeared.
It was a s.p.a.ce rune!
Whoos.h.!.+
In a blink of an eye, Qin Feng and Xiaobai disappeared.
The next moment, the putrid smell of blood and rot overpowered their senses. They had reappeared in the sewer pipe, and they did not have to swim!
Such was the power of Xiaobai’s s.p.a.ce ability.
Qin Feng put on a gas mask, and Xiaobai jumped onto Qin Feng’s shoulder.
“Chirp!”
Xiaobai exerted his strength again and the both of them reappeared in a place above the spot where they first met, the indoor area of the garbage disposal zone.
It was already midnight, but a few people were still watching over the place. When Qin Feng suddenly appeared, the startled worker instinctively pulled out his weapon.
Swoos.h.!.+
A bright silver flash struck his throat before he could react.
As silent as a pin drop, his head was separated from his body, sliding off without a sound!
Qin Feng took a good look across the room. In his previous life, when he was here, he was unconscious the whole time and had no idea what the underground organization looked like. Then, when he was finally strong enough and came back, the entire place was already in ruins.
He could see now that it was a deserted underground factory that had been recently renovated. It was a lot cleaner and more organized compared to previously. Stacked in crates were a ma.s.sive supply of medical equipment. Qin Feng pushed open a door and could not help but gape at what lay before him!
It was a storage room.
Lined to the ceiling were cages filled with liquid supplements and tranquilizers in gla.s.s bottles, with some containing various types of ultra-beasts. There were even humans among them.
But those people had already become specimens. Qin Feng could sense that the person he was looking at had been long dead. The only thing preserving him was the formalin he was doused in. An ultra-beasts’ ability core as big as an egg was planted on the man’s forehead, looking as if he had a third eye on him!
“Gah!!! Disgusting!”
Qin Feng clenched his jaws at the unG.o.dly abomination.
He looked around at the ultra-beasts around him. They came in different shapes and sizes but it was apparent that these creatures had been put through unspeakable torture. He decided that none of them would be useful to him, realizing that he did not need any for the moment.
Quietly, Qin Feng slipped into the hallway. With his dark ability, no one could see him, and the surveillance camera could not capture any sign of him either. Qin Feng wafted along like an invisible spirit in the dead of the night.
As he walked, he suddenly heard the voices of two men. He froze in his steps, listening in.
“Has all the information been collected?”
“Yes. I can’t believe we have to move so soon!”
“We have to b.l.o.o.d.y move, all right! those dumba.s.ses got killed by an Ancient Warrior student who had only recently awakened!”
“That student really hasn’t awakened his abilities yet? If only it had, I’m sure he could make a really good subject for our experiments!”
“There’s nothing to discover about Ancient Warriors. They are not the ultimate stage in the evolution of human beings. Abilities are the mysteries that need solving! Our ability conversion technology will succeed soon! Time to go. We shouldn’t stay in this small place.”
Evidently, these people were getting ready to leave!
