"Don't panic, it's not like we have no chance of winning."
Compared to Li Ming's impatience and Lu Yu's pessimism, Qing Ling's confidence is quite sufficient.
"Where is the chance of winning?" Upon hearing this, Lu Yu straightened up immediately.
He knew that this charming-looking woman had some tricks up her sleeve, and she might be able to pull out some big treasure from her soon.
But what disappointed Lu Yu was that Qing Ling just smiled faintly and continued talking.
"The ammunition in the single-peng gun is not unlimited. We only need to wait until the opponent runs out of ammunition before we can take the initiative."
"After talking for a long time, I'm still a coward..." Lu Yu rolled his eyes at Qing Ling angrily, and then shrank back.
After some "friendly" exchanges, the gunfire in Chen Lang's direction suddenly stopped. The three people behind the bunker looked at each other, and they all saw happy expressions on each other's faces.
But before they could poke their heads out from behind the bunker to check the situation, a dazzling burst of fire exploded in the space!
A violent roar instantly filled the entire underground space, causing the eardrums of the three people to buzz and almost make them sick.
The confused Li Ming instantly realized that this was a directional blast caused by high explosives!
"What are they going to do?!"
Detonating high explosives underground in an entire skyscraper is like lighting a lantern in a latrine!
Is it possible that the parasites on Chen Lang and Shan Peng no longer want to live? Want to die with them?
"Your good teammates are blowing up the building and planning to bury us all alive!!" Lu Yu shouted at the top of his lungs.
What about 'waiting until the opponent runs out of ammunition', and what about 'taking the initiative after a while'...
It's all fucking bullshit!
The buildings on the opposite side have already started to be blown up!
There is also a woolly initiative! !
Faced with the sudden explosion, Qing Ling was completely stunned. She had no idea that Experiment No. 4 would be so radical and actually detonate explosives in this underground space!
In panic, the woman couldn't help but poke her head out to check the situation on the other side.
It would have been better if he didn't look at it. Upon looking at it, Qing Ling's expression changed rapidly, from the initial fear and confusion to complete confusion.
The person is missing!
Smoke and dust filled the entire underground space, and a huge black hole suddenly appeared where Shan Peng and Chen Lang were standing before!
The woman in blue felt sincerely happy to be able to survive the disaster, but the escape of the experimental subject also gave her an irreversible gloom.
"Come out, they have escaped..."
"What did you say?!" Lu Yu obviously hadn't recovered from the tinnitus. While shaking off the dust, he 'recited' Qing Ling's words with his own understanding.
"The building collapsed? We're done?!"
Trying to resist the urge to slap Lu Yu on the head, Qing Ling turned her head and shifted her gaze to Li Ming.
"Can your computer still work?"
"Okay..." Li Ming nodded and carefully opened the computer in his arms.
"Bring up the map of the Huangyanjiang underground tunnel, subway line 17." Qing Ling ordered in a deep voice, tearing off the clothes around his waist and making a simple bandage for the wound on his leg.
Although Li Ming was puzzled as he typed on the keyboard, considering that this was Qing Ling's order, he didn't say anything more and carried it out meticulously.
While he was busy, Lu Yu had already stumbled up from the ground and stuck his head out of the bunker.
Then there was a faint light coming from the elevator shaft, and he also saw the scenery caused by high explosives.
"Damn, it's such a big pit. Hey, it's still open below... Could your good teammate have escaped from this pit..."
Although his hearing was severely damaged, Lu Yu's brain was still quite flexible. After seeing the scene in front of him, he quickly deduced the facts.
"Yes, they ran away. From a certain perspective, we are safe for the time being..."
Sighing softly, Qing Ling suddenly felt very tired.
If she had known that such a difficult thing would happen at Research Station No. 4, she would not have volunteered to complete the escort mission.
Not only his own strength was greatly damaged, he almost lost his life.
After a long silence, Lu Yu asked with some confusion.
"By the way, what happened between you? Why did you suddenly start fighting? Infighting? Or are you just unhappy with each other?"
After hearing Lu Yu's question, Qing Lingtong suddenly felt even more tired.
How dare he know nothing and just troll people?
"are you……"
Qing Ling was about to speak to deal with Lu Yu when she suddenly remembered Tun's respectful attitude when talking to the young man.
As an X-class member, how could Lu Yu not see what was going on here?
So since you have already seen it, why do you still ask knowingly? !
Taking back the words that had reached her lips, Qing Ling frowned slightly and began to think quickly.
The more she looked at the young man's harmless face, the more unsure she felt.
After thinking for a long time, Qing Ling decided that it would be better not to hide anything but to tell the truth.
Since Lu Yu was determined to hide her identity as a special member, she shouldn't expose it blindly.
Taking a step back, even if Lu Yu's identity is not an She couldn't bear the blood spurting from the tip of her tongue.
Therefore, it is better to do more than to do less. It is better to be polite.
With a charming look in her narrow eyes, Qing Ling forced a smile.
"Little brother, I don't know. The reason why Chen Lang and others behave abnormally is because they were parasitically controlled by Experiment No. 4."
"Experimental Subject No. 4? Is it that big lump of disgusting stuff that I sprayed to death?" Lu Yu blinked and cast his gaze into the distance.
The monster's body was still there, but half of it had rotted away and turned into a much more disgusting thing.
"Yes, Experimental Subject No. 4 is not a single individual, so as long as a small part survives, it will not die..."
Qing Ling sighed, obviously thinking of the fate of Chen Lang and Shan Peng.
"Your safety measures are too poor. You don't have complete containment measures for such a dangerous creature. It's really..."
Lu Yu shook his head and commented very naturally.
What he didn't expect was that his unintentional act would appear in a different light in Qing Ling's eyes.
It is not similar to the sad expression shown by the superior leader after the inspection, it is exactly the same.
After a short moment of silence, Qing Ling finally chose to defend herself and added a sentence.
"Research Station No. 4 is mainly in charge of Falcon. I don't know how it became like this..."
"Come on, it's useless for you to tell me in such detail. I just want to know, what are you going to do next?"
Lu Yu waved his hand impatiently and abruptly changed the topic. He didn't have enough time, after all, he still had the time bomb of a king-level virus in his body.
"Find a way to escape first, and then report it to the organization..." Qing Ling said tentatively, staring at the expression on the young man's face.
"Okay, it's pretty much what I thought..."
Lu Yu nodded and looked elsewhere.
Since the charming woman in front of him said that he wanted to escape, the number one priority before him was to find a way out.
At this moment, Li Ming found the route map of the Huangyan River underground tunnel, and the screen turned to show it in front of Qing Ling.
Because it was built relatively early and is close to the Huangyan River, this subway line does not have many branch nodes.
Except for a transfer station with many branches in the city center leading to the south, this tunnel goes all the way north without turning at all.
"Chen Lang and the others must have gone south along the tunnel. Once they reach the transfer station, their whereabouts will be difficult to determine..."
The frown on her face relaxed slightly, and Qing Ling quickly drew an inference from the route map.
"It seems like there's really nothing wrong with us. Let's get ready and let's leave here..."
Hearing the woman's order, Li Ming showed hesitation on his face, "Lord Qingling, are we...are we just leaving like this?"
"What if?"
Qing Ling asked back and glanced at Li Ming lightly.
"I know what you are thinking. Believe me, protecting yourself now is the wisest choice."
"Then captain and the others..." Li Ming still wanted to fight for it.
"It depends on fate. If we report in time and the higher-ups in the organization take this matter seriously, it shouldn't be difficult to find their traces. If we take measures at that time, we might be able to save a life..."
Although Qing Ling said it tactfully, the light in Li Ming's eyes quickly dimmed.
After a while, the young man responded in a thin mosquito voice.
"All right……"
It was dark and silent, with only the sound of dripping water coming from the entire underground space.
Seeing that the conversation between the two was finished, Lu Yu took half a step forward and sniffed.
"Then let's go quickly. I'm so scared to stay in this dark place..."
"Wait a minute."
Qing Ling raised her hand to signal Lu Yu to be calm, and at the same time moved her feet towards the direction where Hong Lian fell.
Although she knew in her heart that her best friend might have died of a king-level virus infection, it was not realistic to take the body out and bury it properly.
But after many years of relationship, no matter what, we should see each other for the last time.
Standing half a step in front of Hong Lian, Qing Ling felt like something was stuck in her throat.
I don't know whether it was due to the parasite infection or the intense effect of Lu Yu's king-level virus. In short, there was no piece of good flesh visible on Honglian's exposed skin. It was all ulcerated as if it had been burned by sulfuric acid, which was horrible to look at.
Moreover, the woman's face was even more miserable, her skin was almost completely rotten, her eyes were sunken, her lips were missing, and in serious places, there were even bones exposed.
Keeping the other party's last appearance in mind, Qing Ling sighed heavily and slowly straightened up.
Just when she was about to leave, the woman suddenly discovered that Lu Yu was standing behind her at some point, stretching his neck and looking curiously in the direction of Honglian.
It feels a bit like people watching the excitement, curious about the scenes of disasters that have nothing to do with them, but are extremely tragic.
I have to say that this feeling made Qing Ling very uncomfortable.
"Let's go, she's dead."
Because she was wary of Lu Yu's identity, Qing Ling did not reveal her unhappiness. She just said a few words and prepared to pass over the young man and move toward Li Ming.
"Wait a moment..."
Unexpectedly, before she could take two steps, Lu Yu suddenly reached out and grabbed Qing Ling's arm.
"how?"
Qing Ling's mood was already extremely heavy, but now that she was being disturbed again and again by the young man, she was already on the verge of explosion.
However, the young man's next words made the woman freeze in place.
"Are you really sure she's dead?"
Lu Yu raised his brows with a calm expression on his face.
Seeing what the other party said, Qing Ling immediately calmed down and looked at Honglian carefully.
But to her disappointment, the corpse was still a corpse, showing no signs of coming back to life.
After taking a deep breath, Qing Ling suppressed her anger and spoke.
"Your blood contains a king-level virus that can kill Experimental Subject No. 4. It can also kill Honglian. She is already dead, so let her rest in peace..."
After saying that, Qing Ling decided to ignore Lu Yu.
"Oh, I'm really not telling you, how can you embroider pillows with rotten straw? Tsk, you only have a good-looking appearance, but you don't have a brain..."
Lu Yu pursed his lips, glanced at Honglian and said.
"You didn't even try to breathe? I heard her gasp just now..."
"What?!"
Qing Ling's eyes widened and she glanced at Lu Yu in disbelief. At the same time, she stretched out her finger dubiously and put it under Hong Lian's broken nose.
Sure enough, as Lu Yu said, there was a weak sense of air coming from the fingertips. Although it was not obvious, it was enough to prove that Honglian was still alive!
】
"Li Ming! Come here!"
Pulling back her fingers as if she was electrocuted, Qing Ling shouted at Li Ming.
The latter limped over holding the computer in his arms.
"Detecting Honglian's brain fluctuations, I want to confirm whether she is really alive!"
Honglian was indeed still breathing, but Qingling couldn't guarantee whether her brain was still alive.
Therefore, we need to simply test Honglian’s brain fluctuations through instruments.
After a while, the results popped up on Li Ming's computer screen.
"The brain activity value is low, but within the normal range. The life fluctuation value is 0.5, and there is still one breath left!"
As the results on the screen were read out continuously, Li Ming's tone became visibly excited.
Lord Guren is not dead. This is undoubtedly a ray of light that breaks through the darkness for him!
"Look, I said you have no brain..."
Lu Yu rolled his eyes at Qing Ling, his face filled with pride.
"you!"
Qing Ling was choked and couldn't speak. After watching you for a long time, she had no choice but to let out a long sigh to relieve the depression in her heart.
"Sister Honglian was first parasitized by Experimental Subject No. 4, and then came into contact with the king-level virus on your body. If you can survive such a disaster, you must be a person with great blessings..."
Lu Yu picked his nose: "What a blessing, this red-skinned female orangutan is obviously very strong and her skin is very strong..."
Forcibly ignoring the young man's comments, Qing Ling turned her head and ordered to Li Ming.
"Your legs and feet are injured. In a moment, go ahead and clear the way. I will carry Honglian on my back."
"Okay..." Li Ming responded subconsciously, but a worried expression soon appeared on his face.
"Lord Qingling, your leg is also injured, and it looks much more serious than mine. Is it really okay..."
"It's just a small injury, not as severe as the times you hit me..."
The survival of Honglian seemed to make Qing Ling's mood much better, and she made a small joke in her words.
"All right……"
Seeing what Qing Ling had said, Li Ming stopped talking and took one last look at Lu Yu beside him, with a hint of resentment in his eyes.
"He wasn't even injured, but he still acted like it had nothing to do with him. It's really annoying..."
However, after thinking about it, Li Ming didn't say anything in the end, and walked honestly in front, towards the black hole in the southwest corner.
Qing Ling knelt down and didn't mind the filth on Hong Lian's body, so she carried the other person on her back.
"Let's go, brother Lu Yu."
As a reminder to Lu Yu who was frozen in place, Qing Ling followed Li Ming one step at a time.
"Hey, wait a minute, where are you going? Aren't we leaving here?"
"I just want to leave..."
Li Ming, who had reached the edge of the cave, turned his head and answered Lu Yu's question indifferently.
"But from the looks of you two, why are you ready to go down?"
"Otherwise?" Qing Ling asked.
"Shouldn't we go through the main entrance? And you just said you wanted to report the situation here to the organization. Just go upstairs and say no?"
Lu Yu spread his hands, confusion written on his face.
"Haha, go upstairs now?"
Qing Ling chuckled lightly, with a strong sense of self-deprecation.
"The entire No. 4 Research Station is controlled by the parasite. Going up now is no different from seeking death. Our only way to survive is to leave along the No. 17 subway line, and then find a way to return to the organization and report the situation here... …”
"What? The entire research station is infected by those disgusting bugs? Including that powerful big fat man?"
After scratching his head, Lu Yu continued to ask.
When Lu Yu mentioned Tun, Qing Ling's breath was obviously confused. She completely forgot that this person still existed at Research Station No. 4.
"With Master Tun's strength, he should not be parasitized, but it is impossible to say for sure. After all, the behavior of Experimental Subject No. 4 is too weird... In short, we cannot bet on this possibility. The top priority is to save our own lives, and then Feed back to the organization what’s going on here.”
"It sounds full of unconfidence, and also has the air of being wise and protective..."
Raising his brows, Lu Yu followed the two of them.
Not long after a few people stepped into the pit, there was a sudden explosion in the silent underground space!
Chaotic rubble burst out from a corner of the space, bringing with it dozens of beams of random white light, piercing the darkness.
Dozens of researchers in white coats hurried in, quickly scanning the surroundings.
After a while, solemnity appeared on the faces of these people at the same time, and they turned around and looked towards the black cave where Qing Ling and others entered.
After looking at each other, everyone stood silently for a long time before finally turning around and walking in the direction they came from...
…
At the same time, the small town around n city, Yunlong.
The setting sun spreads orange-red light, covering the undulating mountains with a beautiful red veil.
The entire Yunlong Town was bathed in tranquility, everything was so peaceful.
But just in this peaceful place, a loud shout came out unexpectedly!
"Take my stick!"
The heavy metal black stick was struck by the wind, and struck down hard with an unstoppable attitude.
The target was a black man wearing sunglasses. He raised his right arm to block, and lightly blocked the path of the stick.
There was only a muffled sound of "dang", and the tip of the rapidly falling stick suddenly came and was blocked by the black man!
However, the attacker obviously expected this situation. He released the tiger's mouth and used his strength to resolve the tremor from the stick. He immediately pulled back and struck back, slamming the black man in the face!
It contains the power to crack mountains and crack rocks!
Faced with such power, the black man did not choose to resist again. Instead, he turned his head slightly, sank his body, and dodged lightly.
At the same time, taking advantage of the inertia of the opponent's attack, he retracted his arms, raised his shoulders, and delivered a powerful punch!
The attacker was trying his best, but he no longer had the energy to dodge. When he was screaming in his heart, he had no choice but to use his chest to resist the opponent's fists, and received a solid blow.
The next moment, the attacker felt as if something heavy had hit his lungs, and even his smooth breathing was interrupted. He had no strength left in his body, and it was even more difficult to maintain his grip on the long metal stick, and he immediately let go and flew out.
"If you are too impatient, you will not achieve your goal."
The black man retreated, a burst of white mist coming from his chest.
The attacker who was blasted away spat and got up from the ground unconvinced.
"There are a few normal people who can block my full blow with just their arms. You are just being mean..."
Before the black man could respond, there was a sound of concern from a corner not far away.
"Old man, how are you?"
Sun Jiayi ran toward the center of the open space worriedly, targeting the black man who blocked the metal rod with his bare hands.
"I'm fine. His strength is not enough to damage my body."
The black man was Hamilton. After waving his hand at the girl with a smile, he turned his attention to the man not far away.
"Jidonghai, your skills still need to be refined. The current level is far from enough."
"I know, I know, you idiot, I am only a first-level ability user now. If I can rise to the next level, you may not be my opponent..."
As he spoke, Ji Donghai had a look of dissatisfaction on his face, as if Hamilton could defeat him not because of his real strength, but because of his iron skin and iron bones.
"Physical advancement is ultimately a foreign object, only skills are eternal."
Faced with Ji Donghai's somewhat impolite response, Hamilton showed full patience.
It was like a master who taught his apprentices seriously, without any other emotions in his chest.
However, Sun Jiayi was not so generous. Looking at the red and swollen flesh on the old man's forearm, the girl retorted with dissatisfaction.
"Just be content, big man! The old man has already given you so much. If he showed his true strength, you might not be able to fight for even one round!"
"Hehe, that's not necessarily the case..."
Jidonghai chuckled, with a hint of joking in his eyebrows.
"you!"
"Okay, okay, he was just joking with you."
Hamilton patted the girl on the shoulder, with a warm smile on his face.
"You won't be allowed to be his sparring partner next time! He doesn't hold back every time and beats you all over with injuries..."
Sun Jiayi said angrily, and gave Jidonghai another stern glance...
