Golden Tooth's headquarters.
It was 287 meters underground.
The underground lab was sealed off by a super alloy that was several meters thick. It perfectly isolated all tremors and noises from the outside world.
While the lair on the surface descended into explosions, fires, and chaos, the underground lab was still dark and silent. The air was so thick that it was suffocating, and it was like an ancient tomb that had been sealed for one thousand years.
At that moment, the silence in the ancient tomb was broken by a strange ticking sound.
Ticking.
Ticking. Ticking.
Ticking. Ticking. Ticking.
The sound came from the ventilation duct in the underground lab.
There were two different air circulation systems in the underground lab.
One of them was similar to an orbiting space station. It could perfectly circulate oxygen and carbon dioxide, and it did not need to come into contact with the outside world.
The other system might be connected to the ventilation duct and lead to the outside world, but there were more than seven layers of monitoring and defense devices installed in the ventilation duct. The diameter of the duct itself was no more than ten centimeters. It was to ensure that no human could sneak in through the ventilation duct.
Unfortunately, the person in the ventilation duct was not a human.
Instead, it was a nearly transparent and incredibly thick adhesive liquid.
The sticky liquid that looked like glue slowly flowed into the ventilation tube along the extremely thin grille and dripped on the floor of the laboratory.
It flowed really slowly, and at first glance, it looked like it had stopped moving.
Only by doing so could it avoid the biological activity monitoring alarm in the ventilation duct.
After persistently dripping for half an hour, a pool of adhesive liquid that had a diameter of more than half a meter gathered under the ventilation duct. It looked like a large slug.
At that moment, something unbelievable happened.
The semi-transparent adhesive liquid squirmed about slowly, and a "head" popped out from the depths of the adhesive liquid. As if it had its own consciousness, it looked around and sniffed carefully before crawling into the depths of the lab.
If Meng Chao were here, he would definitely cry out in a daze, "Vortex!"
While Red Brows Su Lun and the former Reaper Squad members' scheme attracted the attention of Meng Chao, Lu Siya, Xiong Wei, Song Jinbo, Ye Xiaoyue, and all the people outside, the Vortex had already snuck into the secret lab under Golden Tooth's headquarters. It was the grave Saber Jin Wanhao had carefully prepared for himself!
— —
At that moment, all the members of Golden Tooth were running all over the place to calm the chaos in the lair and protect their status.
The military strength was stretched thin, and everyone wished that they could be torn in half. Outside the underground laboratory, there were no experts deployed.
Even if there was someone outside, with the iron wall that Saber Jin Wanhao had meticulously set up and was several meters thick, he would not be able to hear anything.
The Whirlpool had no eyes.
But inside the translucent body, a lot of glittering powder was spreading out, which could collect and magnify the light spot signals of the outside world, allowing him to see everything around him clearly.
Its ever-changing body, which could transform and flow at will, could read and store all the information it came into contact with into its own information cells.
The first thing the Vortex "saw" was rows of large petri dishes.
The huge strengthened glass jars were more than one meter in diameter and more than three meters tall. The brains, limbs, and organs of all sorts of monsters floated quietly in the nutrient fluid that shone with a mysterious light.
The deformed monster organs were stimulated by drugs, and they were enough to make a veteran hunter's mental strength index instantly crumble and suffer from nightmares for three days and three nights.
The Vortex slowly moved closer to a glass jar and wanted to carefully examine what was inside.
The organ inside was more than half a meter in diameter, and it looked like a huge monster's heart. Suddenly, it started beating violently and rammed against the glass. It let out banging sounds in the silent secret lab.
It was still alive!
As if they were responding to each other, as the huge heart beat, all the monster organs stored in the glass jars started twitching violently.
For a period of time, banging sounds rose nonstop, and it sounded like a symphony that could only be heard in hell.
The Vortex was shocked. It screeched and quickly flowed down from the glass jars.
The adhesive liquid on its body rose up and instantly hardened into spikes. It turned itself into a transparent hedgehog and went into a defensive stance.
The monster waited quietly for a long time, but nothing abnormal happened in the depths of the lab. The monster organs that twitched madly due to the nerve currents also calmed down.
The Vortex relaxed its guard. From the spikes all over its body, it turned back into semi-liquid adhesive liquid and continued squirming forward.
In the second room behind the organ cultivation room, it found a lot of paper experiment data and photos.
The Vortex extended its tentacles from its body and carefully scanned the terrifying and bloody photos. It let out excited purrs, as if it had just uncovered a major secret of the owner of the lab, Saber Jin Wanhao.
The third room should be the control room where the experiments were carried out.
It was a fully-automated control room. There were three to five mechanical arms folded on the ceiling and four corners.
The Vortex slowly flowed through the gaps between the mechanical arms. It found scalpels, bone saws, super large syringes, bone grinders, and drills at the front of the mechanical arms. There were also all sorts of strange-looking experimental equipment that looked like torture tools and made a person's skin crawl.
At the center of the control room where the mechanical arms were located was a surgical bed that looked like a dentist's operating chair, but it was magnified several times.
There were more than ten incredibly sturdy restraints on both sides of the surgical bed. They were made from the fasciae of Hell Beasts. Even if they were burned by flames that were more than one thousand degrees Celsius or cut by knives and axes, it would be difficult for them to be destroyed.
The Vortex slowly flowed past the large surgical bed.
He accidentally triggered the mechanism, and with a whoosh, a row of extremely sharp steel needles suddenly popped out from the center line of the operating table. Accompanied by a series of crackling sounds, blue electric arcs and dazzling electric sparks appeared.
The Vortex quickly moved away.
It elongated its "head" and carefully drew close to the steel needles to observe them.
It noticed that the steel needles were hollow. They seemed to be connected to a medicine pouch and a propellant.
The Vortex thought about it quietly.
A scene appeared before its eyes.
A savage and wild super monster was restrained by more than ten mechanical arms. It was thrown onto the large surgical bed.
The restraints on both sides automatically popped out and bound it tightly.
It struggled and roared hysterically.
Inside the operating table, a row of steel needles suddenly popped out and pierced deep into its body. While releasing high-voltage electric arcs, a large amount of medicinal liquid was also injected into its body.
It instantly turned into a pile of minced meat, and it was at Saber Jin Wanhao's mercy.
The Vortex screeched a few more times.
It was as if he was saying, [Saber Jin Wanhao is truly a ruthless person!]
In the next room was a large amount of monster materials and high-purity crystals.
The monster materials that had been meticulously prepared were no longer bloody and hideous. Instead, they released the unique fragrance and luster of a treasure. Just one deep breath was enough to make a person feel refreshed, and all their cells were eager to try.
And each of the high-purity crystals stored here was a priceless treasure. Quite a number of them were supreme-grade items like the Red Radiance Jade crystal marrow that could only be found by luck. They were priceless treasures that Jin Wanhao, the Underground Emperor of Dragon City, had spent his entire life gathering.
Even though the Vortex did not have eyes or a mouth.
Even so, it could not help but pretend that its eyes were sparkling and it was gulping.
This place was basically a treasure trove that had everything it needed.
It was comparable to the personal collections of the leaders of the nine great mega corporations.
If it could find a way to get these supreme-grade monster materials and crystals out …
The Vortex soon suppressed this tempting thought.
It did not come here for the supreme-grade cultivation resources.
At the very least, not entirely.
There was something even more important than the supreme-grade cultivation resources.
The Vortex continued squirming deeper into the lab.
A thick stench of blood came at it from ahead of it.
When it sensed the hungry murderous intent, the Vortex quickly spread itself until it was almost transparent. It was as thin as a cicada's wings and stuck itself to the ground tightly, as if it had instantly become invisible.
What appeared in front of it was a cage.
More accurately speaking, it was a cage separated by more than ten cages that were connected to high-voltage electric fences.
However, the metal fences inside had been destroyed by the crazed monsters.
Only the outermost metal fences, which were thicker than a human's thigh and covered in runic symbols, were still undamaged.
No, it was not "undamaged". Based on the bumps on the walls and the marks left by the impact, it was clear that the metal fences had also been attacked by the monsters locked inside. It was as if they had been attacked indiscriminately.
There was only one monster locked in more than ten cages.
At first glance, it looked like the amalgamation of an armadillo and a hedgehog that had been magnified dozens of times.
It was covered in scales that looked like heavy armor. They stood up and shone with a dark, chilling light.
It also had a pair of terrifying claws that looked like they were born with six sharp scimitars.
Its thick and long tail was also covered in sharp scales. The end of the tail swelled up to form an osteoma that looked like a morningstar. The osteoma was split into six parts, and it looked like a mouth filled with fangs.
This was a Hell Beast, the Broken Claw Dragon.
If Hell Beasts were divided into different levels, the Broken Claw Dragon would definitely belong to the eighteenth level of hell.
It was brutal, cunning, and impervious to weapons. It could also release all sorts of poison and miasma, and it had a myriad of ways to attack.
It was one of the high-grade Hell Beasts that humans did not want to run into unless they were Apocalyptic Beasts.
Of course, most of the monsters would rather run into humans in the wild than run into the Broken Claw Dragon.
However, this Broken Claw Dragon was locked in the secret lab under Golden Tooth's headquarters. It was covered in wounds and was on the verge of death.
