Meng Chao followed closely behind him and jumped out.
He had moved later, but he arrived first. He jumped to the top of the burning flesh mountain and used it as a stepping stone. With a powerful stomp, he sent it crashing to the bottom of the stairs. At the same time, he jumped to the sixth or seventh floor and appeared above Ghost Eagle Song Yu and the crocodile-human.
Song Yu and the crocodile-human's mental reactions stopped at the moment Meng Chao crushed the stairs and landed under their feet.
Song Yu was still fearful of Meng Chao's elusive chains. He focused on guarding against Meng Chao's attacks from the bottom of his feet.
The crocodile-human was on all fours, so it was hard for him to keep an eye on the situation above him.
Hence, when Meng Chao's Bloody Soul created an unstoppable blood-red saber glare and arrived in front of them, they screamed in their dying throes.
Thud!
The saber glare pierced the fleeing crocodile-human's back and crushed his spine. Meng Chao's momentum did not decrease. He continued sweeping horizontally and cut into Ghost Eagle Song Yu's left wing.
This slash contained 70% of Meng Chao's spirit energy.
It was also increased by the Red Radiance Jade crystal marrow.
It was no longer something the crocodile-human's scales could block.
The deformed coughed up a mouthful of blood. He did not even have the time to scream. He curled up into a ball and rolled down the stairs.
Ghost Eagle Song Yu was terrified, and it was too late for him to regret it.
He had seen the two deformed people who had taken Deification Capsules. They had skills and were not afraid of death, which was why he wanted to use the chance to ambush Meng Chao and take revenge.
He did not expect that Meng Chao would be so fierce that he could kill the two deformed people so quickly.
Song Yu was scared out of his wits. He jumped into the air and wanted to escape again.
But this time, he did not have Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang and Tsunami Wan Zhuiyun to protect him. His wing was injured, and he was in a narrow space where he could go up and down. There was no way Meng Chao would let him escape again.
"Come down!"
Meng Chao shouted and threw his chain saber.
It pierced through Song Yu's injured left wing.
Then, he wrapped it around the root of the wing three times and locked it down.
Meng Chao's arms swelled up to twice their original size. He yanked the chain and wrapped it around his right arm, which was made of metal. He continued shortening the distance between them.
Song Yu flapped his wings with all his might, wanting to flap his wings and fly higher, but he was like a drowning person who had fallen into a swamp. The more he struggled, the more he fell into the clutches of death.
"Zi zi zi zi zi zi!"
Not only did Meng Chao use brute force, he also activated his spirit energy magnetic field and lit up the runic symbols on the chains. Blue electric arcs and faint purple flames surged into Song Yu's body through the chains.
"Ahhhhhh!"
Song Yu was badly battered by the electricity. His flesh and blood shrunk in his charred wounds, revealing his pale white bones.
The two sides were in a stalemate like a tug-of-war for a moment before Song Yu finally collapsed, his wings drooping down powerlessly.
Meng Chao shouted and swung the chains violently. Then, like a hammer, he swung Song Yu around in the stairwell.
He didn't know how many walls and stairs he had smashed, or how much shattered concrete and broken steel bars he had smashed into Song Yu's body.
When two-thirds of the chains were wrapped around his right arm and were inches away from him, Meng Chao decided to pull back the chains and jump. Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
He rode on Ghost Eagle Song Yu.
He grabbed Song Yu's face with his left hand, which was like a steel fork. He practically crushed the bones in his face.
His right fist was wrapped in dozens of chains, and it looked like it was wrapped in a super heavy motorized boxing glove. It turned into hundreds of afterimages that rammed into Song Yu's chest.
He sent this inhumane monster crashing to the first floor from the fifth floor.
The burning flesh mountain that had landed on the first floor was not completely dead yet.
Song Yu and Meng Chao rammed into its body.
This time, the mutated person's mitochondria and gene chains were already incredibly unstable, and he had also taken a lot of Deification Capsules, so he finally lost control.
The flames did not just spread through the oil on his skin.
They also surged out from the layers of fat covering his organs and even the depths of his organs.
A terrifying spontaneous combustion happened.
No matter how mutated he became, the burning flesh mountain was still a carbon-based life form. It could not withstand the flames that were thousands of degrees Celsius rampaging through his blood vessels, nerves, and organs.
He let out a shrill scream of pain.
His limbs danced madly, and he instinctively grabbed everything in front of him that he could grab.
More accurately speaking, he grabbed Ghost Eagle Song Yu.
Naturally, at the moment Meng Chao rammed into the ground, he jumped away in time.
He watched coldly from the side as Song Yu was held back by the burning flesh mountain.
His feathers were soon burned to a crisp.
His limbs were burned to the point that they looked like curled up chicken claws.
Blisters that looked like toads also appeared on his body.
To this lost person who had once killed dozens of innocent citizens, this was a fitting end.
Unfortunately, Ghost Eagle Song Yu was still a Heaven Realm superhuman.
He was not a burning flesh mountain that struggled on its deathbed. He could be dragged to the grave with it.
The threat of death stimulated the last of his strength.
He screamed and tore apart the burning flesh mountain's arms. Then, he finally crawled out of the burning area.
However, all the feathers and skin on his body had been burned away. Compared to the Ghost Eagle, he looked more like an enormous, black fly.
Meng Chao stomped on the person's sunken chest.
Spirit energy rampaged through his limbs, bones, and organs like a monster.
It also caused his shattered bones to stab into the flesh around him, and he was in so much pain that he cried for his parents and peed his pants.
Meng Chao was certain that Ghost Eagle Song Yu had already lost his ability and will to fight back, so he was not in a hurry to kill him.
No matter what, this person was a criminal with a huge bounty on his head. He was also in charge of supervising the Deification Capsule pharmacy. During the final moment, he had managed to escape with thousands of Deification Capsules.
It was clear that the Vortex trusted him a lot.
Meng Chao might be able to get some information about the Vortex from him.
As Meng Chao thought about it, he first scanned the other veteran hunters in the neural tactical data link.
Up to now, everything was going smoothly.
Thirty-three Heaven Realm superhumans were a force that could not be stopped.
The enemy had indeed set up a lot of guards around the Deification Capsule pharmacy.
But most of the guards were robbers and deformed people who had taken Deification Capsules.
They could cause a certain amount of trouble to the Heaven Realm superhumans, but that was all.
There were not a lot of famous lost people like Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang and Ghost Eagle Song Yu.
Besides, they were not as easily bewitched by the Vortex as the normal robbers and deformed people.
They were all in cahoots with each other for their own benefits.
When disaster arrived, everyone had their own ideas. No one was truly loyal and was willing to be cannon fodder.
Hence, Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong led the veteran hunters into the depths of the building from all directions. They had already cleared five floors and dozens of corridors. They were now very close to the Deification Capsule pharmacy.
Aside from Multi-armed Bear Hong Li roaring and charging at the front to attract as much firepower as possible, he was attacked by more than ten rocket launchers and was slightly injured, but the other powerful fighters were fine.
It was just that he had overloaded his vitality magnetic field, and his spirit energy drained a little quickly.
Before they set off, they had considered this situation.
The super gene medicine they brought with them was Raging Dragon Blood. It could instantly replenish their energy and increase their maximum fighting time by more than 150%.
Aside from seeing Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang and Tsunami Wan Zhuiyun's shadows in the beginning, the moment they exchanged blows, the two peerless villains fled without a trace.
Of course, based on the biochemical rats' surveillance footage, the pharmacists in the Deification Capsule pharmacy had scattered the moment the battle started. They fled into the underground through the hidden tunnels.
But that was fine. If they ran, they would not be able to take the pharmacy equipment and raw materials with them.
If they lost the nest, even if the Vortex could immediately activate the second pharmacy, its scale and production would definitely drop by leaps and bounds. It would not be able to cause too much trouble.
'The situation seems to be going smoother than I imagined.
'Is it because the fighting strength of the hunting squad that entered the lair has increased by leaps and bounds?'
Meng Chao sighed in relief.
But at that moment, a faint scent of grass suddenly crept into his nostrils.
It was an extremely faint aura.
It was mixed with smoke, dust, blood, and the burnt stench of burning corpses.
If Meng Chao were not a veteran harvester who had a deep understanding of all sorts of monsters and etherealized plant materials and had incredibly sharp senses, he would definitely not be able to tell.
Even most harvesters would treat it as the scent of a normal herb and instinctively ignore it.
There were quite a number of heavily injured robbers lying all over the corridor on the first floor.
They had thick ointment smeared on their blood-stained bandages, and it had the scent of herbs mixed in it. It was very normal.
But Meng Chao could tell that it was the scent of the etherealized Illuminating Grass.
And Illuminating Grass did not have any healing properties.
In truth, not only did it not have any healing properties, Illuminating Grass was completely useless.
Illuminating Grass usually grew in the depths of forests.
It was a variant of the pitcher plant, and it lived by hunting small mosquitoes and insects.
To attract mosquitoes, it used the phototaxis of insects to secrete a glowing liquid that shone with a green light.
Aside from glowing, it was a very normal plant. It did not have any edible or medicinal value, and it did not contain any spirit energy, so it could not be used for cultivation.
'So, why is there the scent of Illuminating Grass in the depths of Leprosy Village? It should only grow in forests, but few people move it to the city. Aside from glowing, it has no other use.'
Meng Chao was certain that when he entered the place, he did not sense the scent of Illuminating Grass.
Then, where did the scent come from in just five minutes?
His nostrils twitched a little. His spirit energy stimulated the cells in his nasal mucosa, and he carefully identified the barely discernible scents.
In the end, he locked down the source of the scent to a pool of green, sticky liquid in the corner.
'This is … the medicinal liquid from the Deification Capsules?'
When Ghost Eagle Song Yu and the other two criminals fled, they each brought a backpack full of Deification Capsules.
Just now, Meng Chao had blasted Song Yu from the sky to the ground, so naturally, his backpack had flown out as well.
Even though the Deification Capsules in his backpack were all protected by metal tubes, Meng Chao was still a Deification Capsule.
But under Meng Chao's monstrous strength, a few of the metal cylinders twisted. The caps disappeared, and the Deification Capsules inside spilled out. Once they shattered, the medicinal liquid spilled all over the floor.
The scent of the Illuminating Herb was emitted from the medicinal liquid.
