He felt as if all the bones in his body were falling apart. When he looked around, he realized that he was in a storeroom, and beside him was a corridor. He was looking straight at Suzuki Ikuo and his men, who had just climbed up from the second floor of the basement, and they were looking at each other.
"Xiao Han-kun, you … you …"
Ikuo Suzuki hugged the unconscious Lady Poison and looked at Xiao Luo, unable to say a complete sentence. He could not figure out why Xiao Luo was here, and why he had smashed a human-shaped hole in the wall. When he saw the hole in the opposite wall, he might have guessed the situation, but he just could not believe it.
"Don't worry about me. Hurry to the exit of level 0. I'll cover you!" Xiao Luo shouted.
"Yes!" Ikuo Suzuki nodded.
"Xiao Han, have you seen my husband?" the woman asked.
Xiao Luo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up. He frowned and said, "I'm sorry, I don't want to lie to you. He has already mutated into a biochemical monster. There is no saving him."
Mutated into a biochemical monster?
There is no saving him?
The woman was stunned. Her mind was blank, and the whole world was dead silent. She had come to Nippon Province for a vacation with her husband and child, but now she was told that her husband had mutated into a monster. Who could accept this? He was the god of this family.
Roar!
A beastly roar shook the eardrums, accompanied by the crumbling of the walls. A three-meter-tall behemoth appeared in the heavy sand. It had a bald head, a ferocious face, sharp claws, and a metallic texture. It was as terrifying as a creature that had crawled out from hell.
The moment she saw it, all the strength in the woman's body was sucked out. She knelt on the ground with the unconscious little boy in her arms, tears gushing out.
Pain, despair, and fear. These three negative emotions shrouded her tightly. This was the man she was closest to, but also the man she was most unfamiliar with.
"How could this be … how could this be …"
She couldn't believe that all of this was real. She couldn't believe that her man had turned into a monster. This was like an incomparably real and terrifying nightmare.
After the mutation, Xie Wenchang no longer had any human emotions. When he saw a living person, he was like a zombie that saw fresh flesh. He was so excited that he went crazy. He roared and charged towards Ikuo Suzuki and the others. His claws were as sharp as knives.
Xiao Luo flashed over like lightning and grabbed Xie Wenchang's wrists with both hands like steel pliers, intercepting him with precision!
Turning his head, he shouted at Ikuo Suzuki and his men, "What are you waiting for? Let's go, Mute. You and Deaf take this woman and her child!"
"Ah, ah, ah!"
Mute was the first to respond, using hand gestures to convey Xiao Luo's meaning to Deaf. Then, they supported the woman who seemed to have lost her soul and her child and retreated to floor 0. Their speed was very fast, just like a frightened rabbit. In the blink of an eye, they had run seven to eight meters away.
"Idiot, wait for me!"
Ikuo Suzuki carried the unconscious Lady Poison and hurried to catch up. As he ran, he looked back. "Xiao Han-kun, you have to hold on. Whether we can leave this damned biological research facility alive or not depends on you."
Xiao Luo was already having a hard time fighting against the mutated Xie Wenchang. When he heard this, he was immediately furious and couldn't help but curse, "Motherf * cker!"
…
…
Suzuki Ikuo and his men quickly retreated to level 0, but they could still clearly feel the intense battle between Xiao Luo and Xie Wenchang. They could hear a series of loud noises coming from below, and every loud noise was accompanied by an earth-shaking experience. It was as if two monsters from the Mythical World were battling it out, and the biochemistry base could collapse at any moment.
"Mute, Deaf, hurry up, or we'll be buried alive!"
Ikuo Suzuki's will to live made him perform exceptionally well. It could be said that he was running as fast as he could, carrying a person in his arms. Furthermore, he was wearing a cumbersome biochemical suit, and yet he was running first.
"Ah, ah, ah!" Mute called out a few times.
Ikuo Suzuki, who had just reached the exit of floor 0, slammed on the brakes, slapped his thigh, and cursed, "Idiot, if it weren't for your reminder, I would have forgotten about this. I'm f * cking poisoned, and if I don't have the antidote, I'll still die even if I rush out!"
"Ah, ah, ah!"
Deaf spread out his hands. That was what he meant, but there was nothing he could do.
"No, I have to get the antidote!"
Ikuo Suzuki put Lady Poison on the ground. "Wait for me here, and don't open the door. Those bastards outside must be aiming their guns at us. As long as we don't open the door, they won't be able to do anything!"
After he finished speaking, he ran back.
However, before he could take more than a few steps, there was a loud bang, and a hole broke open in the ground. Accompanied by flying gravel and rising dust, the mutated Xie Wenchang flew up from below. His steel-like body was covered in wounds, and the most frightening thing was that half of his skull was gone, as if it had been sliced by a sharp blade. The inside of his skull was filled with sticky green blood.
Ikuo Suzuki, Mute, and Deaf were so scared that they sat on the ground. If they hadn't seen this battle with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed it even if they were beaten to death. This was a battle that completely ignored physical obstacles.
"Thump … thump … thump …"
Heavy footsteps came from the stairs. Not long after, Xiao Luo walked up from floor 1, panting heavily. His clothes were tattered, and his pair of scarlet eyes slowly returned to their normal color. However, the murderous aura emitted from his body sent chills down one's spine.
This fierce battle had clearly ended with the defeat of the biochemical monster!
As his life force was rapidly fading, Xie Wenchang regained his human consciousness. He raised his head with difficulty and recognized Xiao Luo. "Mr … Mr Xiao Han …"
His voice was hoarse and weak. As he spoke, green blood flowed out of his mouth and nose uncontrollably.
Xiao Luo lowered his head and looked at him. After a moment of shock, he said softly, "I'm sorry!"
Xie Wenchang smiled bleakly and shook his head. Then, all his words turned into a long sigh. How could he not know what had happened?
"Wenchang, Wenchang!!!"
The woman screamed with all her strength. She ran over desperately with the little boy in her arms. She knelt on the ground and looked at Xie Wenchang with tears streaming down her face.
"Xiao Ya, I … I couldn't protect you … I couldn't protect our son … I'm sorry …"
Xie Wenchang looked at his wife and the little boy who had fainted and was starting to grow pustules. Even though he had become a monster, he still had the heart of a human, and the tears he shed were still human.
"No, no …"
The woman shook her head and cried, hugging him tightly.
"… If there's an afterlife, I … can still be your man …"
