Xu Cheng held a thigh-thick tree trunk with both hands and swept it across Lei Dian's waist.
Raiden's body is filled with electric current and will be shocked when touched. The simplest way is to use an insulator to attack.
The dry tree trunk Xu Cheng found from the forest is a natural insulator with extremely high resistivity, which can perfectly isolate the current from lightning.
Click!
Lei Dian could clearly hear the sound of his lumbar vertebrae breaking, and a sharp pain shot from his waist along his spine to the back of his head, causing him to let out an unprecedented wailing sound.
His brain produced a series of amazing reactions under the influence of severe pain, anger, fear and other emotions.
An even more terrifying electric current burst out from his body, and his whole body was like thunder falling from the sky, emitting an astonishing bright light.
With a bang, the dry tree trunks were ignited by the electric current. Even Xu Cheng could feel a slight numbness in his hands, and the hair and fine hairs on his body stood up.
In the monitoring room, Catherine had a look of shock on her face.
The researchers on the side were shouting.
"His abilities have been upgraded!"
"The discharge level is still rising!"
"Is it a supernatural power or a strong ability?"
The researchers were very excited. One of the main purposes of this experiment was to force the prisoners to improve their abilities in life and death through cruel actual combat.
On the monitoring screen, facing the strange phenomenon of lightning, Xu Cheng had no intention of stopping. The tree trunk continued to sweep across, flying away the lightning.
He flew more than ten meters away, stopped after hitting a big tree, and fell to the ground.
Because his lumbar spine was broken, Lei Ding was paralyzed and could not feel the existence of his lower body at all. The severe pain and anger caused his whole body to continue to discharge, like a dazzling thunder ball.
Xu Cheng had already rushed over, raised the tree trunk high, and hit him hard on the head.
Lei Dian stared at the fallen tree trunk, and the electricity all over his body suddenly formed a thick electric light and shot out, shattering the tree trunk with a bang.
"Warden, stop him quickly!!"
In the monitoring room, the expressions of the researchers changed. The thunder and lightning being upgraded were important research materials and experimental subjects, and he must not be killed.
Seeing that Xu Cheng had won the victory, Catherine, who was in a happy mood, picked up the loudspeaker and tried to stop him.
"114, stop your attack."
Catherine's voice sounded from the loudspeaker installed in the tree, but Xu Cheng turned a deaf ear.
He threw away the shattered tree trunk and rushed towards the thunder and lightning.
"stop!"
Seeing Xu Cheng ignoring her orders, Catherine's tone suddenly became stern.
"Ahhh, go to hell!"
Seeing Xu Cheng rushing over, the thunder and lightning roared angrily, and the ferocious electric current condensed into shape again and shot towards Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng was covered with steel skin and swung his sword against the lightning.
After the lightning struck his palm, it instantly flowed throughout his body.
Xu Cheng endured the severe pain of the electric shock, and cut through the lightning with his knife unstoppably, hitting Lei Ding's throat.
With a click, Lei Dian's throat was shattered by the hand knife.
He spat out a large mouthful of blood, stared at Xu Cheng with wide eyes, and gradually lost his breath, and the shining electricity all over his body also went out.
"ah!"
In the monitoring room, watching Xu Cheng strike with lightning, the researchers all screamed with anger and heartache.
There were very few experimental subjects like Raiden who suddenly advanced in the battle. Each one was precious, but they were beaten to death under their eyes.
Catherine's face was livid, extremely annoyed that Xu Cheng ignored her orders.
But at the same time, there was an unprecedented sexual interest in her eyes. This kind of strong-willed little boy who was not afraid of power was her favorite prey.
Xu Cheng didn't know that he had caused public outrage. After killing Lei Ding, he sat down on the ground, shaking uncontrollably.
Thunder and Lightning's final counterattack was so fierce that even though Xu Cheng covered his whole body with steel skin, he was almost fainted from the electricity. He relied on perseverance to complete the final blow.
Now there was severe pain all over his body, especially the palm that split the lightning, which was already scorched black.
"Xu Xian!"
Bai Yuelin ran over with tears in her eyes and squatted beside him: "Are you okay?"
Xu Cheng suppressed the pain in his body and twitched the corner of his mouth slightly: "Do you think something is wrong with me?"
Bai Yuelin stretched out her hands to hold his face, looked around at his pale face and dry lips, and then nodded honestly: "Like, you don't look like you will live long now."
Xu Cheng: "..."
Well said, don't say it again next time.
"You're happy, aren't you?"
Catherine's voice suddenly sounded from the speaker, her tone was very calm, but Xu Cheng could hear the chilling coldness beneath the calmness.
"Children who disobey will be punished."
After she said this, she became silent. Bai Yuelin still didn't understand what happened, but Xu Cheng's face darkened.
But he didn't regret disobeying Catherine's order just now, because Raiden was obviously at a critical moment of upgrading his capabilities.
If he was left alive and allowed to complete the upgrade of his abilities, Xu Cheng and Bai Yuelin would suffer his ferocious revenge in the future.
Although electrical abilities are very common, their upper limits are extremely high, and it would be too dangerous to leave them alone.
It was impossible for Xu Cheng to leave this kind of trouble behind, so even if it angered Catherine, he had to get rid of the root cause.
"Go and collect all the iron cards."
Xu Cheng told Bai Yuelin, and then he got up from the ground with support. The pain in his body still did not disappear. Leiden's final counterattack may have left him with hidden injuries.
After Bai Yuelin collected all the iron cards of the three defeated people, Xu Cheng left the scene of the crime with her support.
Catherine's punishment was unknown in what form, so hiding somewhere where surveillance cameras couldn't capture her was the best way to deal with it.
Xu Cheng misses his adult self very much now. He doesn't have to be as aggrieved as he is now, and has to run away at the slightest threat from a giant horse.
The two walked hundreds of meters away in the forest, and the sunlight gradually disappeared. A thick fog rose up in the forest at some point, shrouding all directions.
Xu Cheng's face changed slightly, realizing that Catherine's punishment might have come, and immediately turned around with Bai Yuelin.
But after turning around, thick fog also blocked the road ahead. Without the sun, it was impossible to tell the difference between east, west and north.
"Stop!"
Xu Cheng did not rashly lead Bai Yuelin around like a headless fly, wasting energy.
Instead, he rested where he was to see if he could recover from his injuries and his almost depleted Qi.
Bai Yuelin also had a premonition of danger coming and looked around nervously.
A sound breaking through the air suddenly broke into the ears of the two of them.
Bai Yuelin was pushed away by Xu Cheng before she could tell where the attack came from.
A thick stone flew between the two of them and hit the trees not far away with a bang.
Bai Yuelin rolled to the ground. Before she could get up, several thick tree roots suddenly emerged from the ground and instantly tied her hands, feet, limbs and waist, locking her whole body to the ground.
Xu Cheng endured the pain in his body and avoided the roots protruding from the ground.
In the thick fog, a dozen figures loomed from all directions, their hands and feet shackled. They were all prisoners participating in this battle royale.
This was Catherine's punishment for Xu Cheng's disobedience to her orders.
The three prisoners just now made Xu Cheng's situation so precarious that he even reopened it again.
Now there are more than a dozen called out at once. Their strength may not be comparable to that of Thunder and Lightning, but the absolute number can bring an absolute advantage.
Xu Cheng dodged the sudden attack of tree roots. As soon as his feet landed, the originally solid ground suddenly turned into a swamp, causing his legs to sink into it.
More tree roots spread from all directions, running up his legs and binding his hands and feet.
A dozen prisoners around him swarmed forward, using their abilities to grab heads.
Catherine promised them that whoever can defeat Xu Cheng will get ten spiritual potions.
Bai Yuelin was locked to the ground and couldn't move. She struggled desperately, even if the skin on her wrists was worn out, she couldn't break free.
Seeing that Xu Cheng was besieged by more than a dozen people and his life was in danger, Bai Yuelin's pupils shrank and his eyes widened to the limit.
This scene was almost exactly the same as when her parents were killed a few months ago.
The painful memories came to mind again, and panic almost ran through Bai Yuelin's brain.
"Stop it!!"
Stimulated by strong emotions, she opened her mouth and let out a scream, her white hair moving automatically.
Her scream formed an invisible ripple and spread out, and magic rings suddenly appeared one after another in the space covered by the sound waves.
The dozen prisoners who besieged Xu Cheng were instantly surrounded by countless magic rings, and their bodies were cut into a large number of pieces by the magic rings, including the abilities they created.
When Bai Yuelin's screams stopped, countless magic rings in this space also disappeared.
There was only a crackling sound, and the bodies of more than a dozen prisoners cut into pieces fell from the air. At the same time, a large amount of blood sprayed out, directly turning into a scene that was dozens of times bloodier than that of a slaughterhouse.
Bai Yuelin exhausted all her strength. After shouting, her eyes closed.
Xu Cheng froze on the spot, staring at the unconscious Bai Yuelin with shocked eyes.
He had never thought that Bai Yuelin's magic ring ability could be so terrifying, and its power even exceeded that of her adult self.
There was also silence in the monitoring room.
Catherine stood up suddenly and stared at the surveillance screen.
The researchers also looked dull. After a long time, someone whispered something.
"This is...the power of a sinner, right?"
The sound broke the dead silence, and the researchers began to discuss in low voices.
"Yes, it is the power that sinners gain after they rebel against God."
"It's so scary, no wonder some people call it the devil."
Their discussion was not as exciting as when they saw the thunder and lightning upgrade just now, but instead was filled with fear and repulsion.
Although they are researchers, they are all theists, and many are still believers.
It is natural to feel fear and rejection of this kind of power that is said to have been obtained from the devil after betraying God.
Catherine put away the surprised expression on her face, got up and left the control room, returned to her office, picked up the phone, and reported the situation here to her superiors.
She had no right to make her own decisions when it came to the descendants of sinners.
