Zhang Zhiyin and Shang Si got on the car and followed the three brothers to the 14th street industrial building. Station Three still had a team of eight people guarding the place, the rest should have retreated like Station Seven.
When they heard that Shang Si and Zhang Zhiyin were here to help, they all revealed grateful expressions.
The black metal door leading to the underground laboratory was wide open. It was completely silent inside, as if there was no one inside. However, the diligently operating scouting equipment at the door clearly told them that this was not a simple matter, not to mention that they had just sent a suicide squad inside an hour ago. They sent out the news, but they never came out again.
Shang Si and Zhang Zhiyin were arranged to bring up the rear.
Shang Si, who was walking slightly behind Zhang Zhiyin, pulled his hand.
"Follow me, don't get lost," he said softly.
The situation was special, Zhang Zhiyin knew that Shang Si might not be a normal person. Although he felt a bit awkward, he didn't struggle out of the man's hand.
The three brothers looked back and immediately understood why Station Three's people went to see Captain Zhang after Vice Seat Shang suggested to go with them. It turned out they were a couple.
The tall man silently walked at the back, carefully holding the hand of the person in front of him, clearly wholeheartedly protecting him.
Seeing the two of them being so affectionate, the three brothers felt even more apologetic for dragging them down, thinking that if, if they could make it out alive, they would definitely listen to their orders.
As they walked, they found that there were many partitions inside, inside of which were medicine and equipment of unknown uses. However, they didn't meet a single person, nor did they meet any obstructions.
It was as if the other party had opened the city wide to invite them in.
Everyone became nervous, only one person who couldn't be called a person was clearly not in the situation.
Yin Nian wore the identity of Shang Si and held his Zhiyin's hand. It was rare that his Zhiyin didn't refuse him, so he couldn't help but let his thoughts run wild. He only hoped that no one would come out to disturb them, not caring about where he was or what he was doing. To him, the life and death of these people didn't matter.
The last time he walked hand in hand with his Zhiyin was in the illusion he simulated.
He didn't know when the next time would be.
Unfortunately, there would always be people who would jump out to disturb his boss's romantic mood.
The leader of the three suddenly shouted, "Not good, this place isn't right …"
In fact, the entire underground had never been right. From the moment they came down, they had already fallen into the other party's control. It was just a matter of when the other party wanted to make a move.
Both sides of the road were quickly blocked by the sudden descent of the iron gate. They were locked in a square room, and the light pink gas that was constantly emitted gradually filled the entire space. The room was airtight, and other than not breathing, there was no other way to avoid inhaling it.
Zhang Zhiyin quickly took out two Emerald Sea Saliva Pills from his storage space, swallowed one, and gave the other to the merchant who was sticking close to him. He made this pill when he was bored in the past to increase his Alchemy level, but he didn't expect that it would come in handy at a crucial moment. He didn't have enough materials, so he only made two pills. Holding one's breath underwater for a long time in the game would reduce one's HP, so he had to take the Emerald Sea Saliva Pill before doing underwater missions. This way, he wouldn't need the support of the outside air to hold his breath for a long time.
Zhang Zhiyin opened the Item Store and tried to buy eight more pills for the people of Station Three. However, once again, he was greeted with a familiar "Found".
Can't we just be friends? What happened to the love of a lifetime?
The moment he saw the familiar combination of numbers and letters, Zhang Zhiyin felt like his entire world was in chaos.
The moment he saw the sudden change, Zhang Zhiyin quickly broke free from the merchant's hand.
This instantly caused Boss Yin to feel extremely displeased. But in the next second, the hand once again took something and stuffed it into his mouth.
Yin Nian: "…"
It was as if he kissed Zhiyin's hand! Not only did he kiss it, he even licked it …
Yin Nian felt like his entire body was in chaos.
The people of Station Three couldn't hold on any longer. They leaned against the wall and fell into a semi-conscious state.
Not knowing what the pink gas was used for, Zhang Zhiyin took out the Clear Heart Pill and Detoxification Pill he made and stuffed two into each person's mouth — — these things were quite common, and the materials were also common. Zhang Zhiyin had saved up a lot of them in the past in Dragon's End Valley. He didn't know if it was the right thing to do, but it was better than nothing.
Yin Nian had just gotten rid of the beautiful pink bubbles in his head and became a little more clear-headed. When he saw the scene in front of him, his dark eyes suddenly darkened a little — Zhiyin had fed each of them two pills, one more than he had.
He really wanted to make them vomit.
Zhang Zhiyin didn't know what his only remaining companion was thinking and began to try to open a gap with him. However, it was clear that the door's control mechanism wasn't in this room.
Yin Nian thought for a bit, gathered the power of lightning on his palm, and then placed his hand on the metal door — — he still remembered that he was Shang Si, so he had to stand guard until Shang Si died. He couldn't let Zhiyin become suspicious, so he couldn't use methods that were beyond Shang Si's abilities.
The refined metal door gradually melted, and a gap that could allow one person to pass through silently appeared.
Shang Si took the lead and went out, looking around vigilantly, waiting for Zhang Zhiyin to come out.
However, just as Zhang Zhiyin's body came out halfway, a dense barrage of bullets immediately swept towards them.
Shang Si conjured up a lightning shield and blocked this round of attacks. He then pulled Zhang Zhiyin and ran in another direction.
The three ability users chased after them — — their attitudes were very frivolous, and they didn't use their full strength. Instead, it was like a cat chasing a mouse, with a relaxed attitude as if everything was under their control.
Zhang Zhiyin and Shang Si pulled each other along the winding underground corridor as they fled.
Yin Nian liked this feeling very much. He knew that humans had a phrase to describe this situation: "going through thick and thin together".
He could hear Zhiyin's clear heartbeat under the effects of her rapid running and extreme nervousness. He could feel the slight sweat on the hand that was tightly holding onto him. He could feel that the other party was connected to him, wholeheartedly entrusting and trusting him … This feeling was very strange, but also very warm. For a moment, he felt that he was truly like a normal person, an ordinary person.
The wind blade brushed past their backs, and Shang Si pulled Zhang Zhiyin into a room to hide.
The other party didn't chase after them, instead quickly lowering the door outside the room.
This door was four times thicker than the one that Shang Si melted, so the possibility of them using the same trick again wasn't high.
Then, the two of them quickly understood why the other party was so certain that they wouldn't chase after them, and why the door was so thick.
This room was filled with high-level mutants.
Those guys were bound in some kind of milky white glass container and had fallen asleep, and they were all Level 5 and above, so it wasn't hard to imagine how troublesome they would be if they woke up. As far as the eye could see, there were no less than thirty of them in the room, and six or seven of them were Level 7.
The most terrifying thing was that one of the mutants faintly emitted a pressure that surpassed Level 7 — — it was very likely that it had reached Level 8, which was a level that the entire Yuntian Alliance had yet to break through.
It was much more difficult to deal with than the last time he and Shang Si encountered it.
He didn't know if Shang Si's method of dealing with them would still work.
The room seemed to have received some kind of order, and instantly came to life. The transparent glass container rose up, and the monsters that were originally trapped inside came into contact with the air, swaying their limbs as they stood up.
Zhang Zhiyin was just about to discuss a countermeasure with Shang Si, but he found that he couldn't make a sound, nor could he move — — his entire body was covered by a bright silver bell-shaped container, and there was a faint electric current flowing around the outside of the container.
This was the Thunder Bell of the Lightning Element, a type of defensive ability that lightning ability users had. The person covered by the Thunder Bell couldn't speak or move, but as long as the caster didn't die, any attacks from the outside wouldn't be able to harm the person protected by the bell. There were only three ways to break the Thunder Bell, the first was for the caster to remove it, the second was for the person being protected to be stronger than the caster, and they could forcefully break it, but this would cause the caster to suffer heavy injuries, and the third was for the caster to die, and the protective bell would automatically be removed.
Zhang Zhiyin stared blankly at the tall figure outside, and a bad premonition arose in his heart — — and what was this?! He was protecting himself from so many mutants outside, what exactly was this!
He desperately tried to signal Shang Si with his eyes, but Shang Si turned around and didn't even look at him.
Zhang Zhiyin's heart was filled with anger, uneasiness, and worry, but he couldn't do anything, he could only watch as Shang Si slowly floated into the air, eyes closed, and hands flipped with silver-purple-platinum sparks, so beautiful that he didn't dare to look at him directly.
The mutants that had already completely awakened were all entrenched on the ground, digging restlessly, but they didn't dare to approach Shang Si.
This time, Shang Si took a longer time to prepare than last time, and only after about seven minutes did he suddenly open his eyes, pouring down the power of thunder and lightning accumulated in his hands! The flowing lightning dragon wreaked havoc in the entire room, and the mutants let out painful roars. Zhang Zhiyin's eyes exploded with lightning, and he hurriedly closed his eyes, but there was still a bright white halo flashing in front of him.
He couldn't see anything, and could only hear the endless explosions that sounded as if heaven and earth were being split apart.
After what seemed like a long time, but also like only a few minutes, everything around him gradually calmed down.
Zhang Zhiyin opened his eyes, and what entered his eyes was a scene of devastation. The four-layered iron door had a large hole that could allow a person to enter and exit, and the originally spacious and orderly room that stored the mutants' containers was filled with charred wreckage, to the point where it was impossible to distinguish whether they belonged to the mutants or to Yi himself.
And he could move and speak again. The lightning bell was long gone, and the owner of the bell that protected him was weakly lying on the ground with his eyes closed.
Zhang Zhiyin ran over, squatted down beside him, and shouted with a trembling voice, "Bastard …"
Letting him watch helplessly like this …
He still had a surplus of teleportation talismans on him, so they didn't have to be so miserable.
Fine beads of blood continuously seeped out from that person's body, gradually forming a large patch. Zhang Zhiyin was so scared that he couldn't say anything. He reached his hand into his spatial bag to grab the medicine — — he still had a divine medicine that was sold for 100 in the item shop, and it was said to be able to bring the dead back to life. In the game, it could allow players to immediately return to full health without any negative effects, and in this world, it might really have a miraculous effect.
Facing Shang Si, he already didn't care if his secret was exposed.
Even though it was a bit far-fetched, Yin Nian managed to smoothly reach this step with great difficulty. Seeing that he was about to achieve his goal, he obviously wouldn't give him the chance to save himself, and decided to quickly die until not even a trace of himself remained.
However, he still had something he wanted to say.
Zhang Zhiyin showed an extremely weak and helpless smile to the person in front of him, then asked with a light but coherent voice: "Zhiyin, if the person you like is actually like me and not what you think, would you still like him?"
Zhang Zhiyin didn't know what to say at this moment. He chose to tell the truth.
"I would. No matter what kind of person he is, I would still like him. He has already pierced into my heart, I can't pull it out "if one day he had to pull it out, he would feel pain.
Yin Nian showed a relieved smile. The Shang Si's body seemed to be unable to bear the heavy burden, suddenly turned into dust and scattered.
"Shang Si … hey! Shang Si! "
Zhang Zhiyin laid on the ground where the Shang Si was a second ago, still holding the pill in his hand.
But there was nothing underneath him, other than the white dust that was even smaller than a speck of dust in his hand, there was nothing left.
"Shang Si …"
Strangely, with such a huge commotion here, there was no reaction from the outside at all.
Until Zhang Zhiyin, who was still immersed in grief and shock, heard a cold and low voice from outside:
"Completely destroy this place"
This was a voice he wouldn't forget even if he died!
Zhang Zhiyin turned around and glanced through the hole in the door, only to see the handsome and cold final boss dressed in a white research robe standing outside, his entire body tall and slender, carrying a disdainful aura.
