Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Kane, do you think the kid can break open the door?"
"Impossible," Kane said. "That's a 15-centimeter door. Even ten kilograms of TNT can't break it open."
"Unless he has tools," Karim said.
"There's nothing inside other than ice."
Ice?! Everyone suddenly realized the crux of the problem.
"Mr. Laurent, I think we should go."
"Why?"
"If Chen comes out, he'll kill us," Kane said.
"Can he really break open the door?"
"He's probably using ice wrapped in his clothes to smash the door …" Kane said with a serious expression.
"How long will it take for him to break open the door?"
"I don't know, but it's definitely dangerous for us to stay here."
By now, the door was already protruding. The sound of the door being smashed was still incessant.
Kane, Karim, and Howard watched from outside. It was truly terrifying.
If they were caught by the monster inside, they'd definitely be cut into pieces.
If they'd known, they wouldn't have helped Laurent set up this trap.
They didn't get any benefits. Instead, they were being targeted by Chen Zhao.
The gazes of the three fell on Laurent. Laurent was very unhappy.
They'd clearly won and sent Chen Zhao into their trap.
In the end, they had to run away pathetically. Why did it feel like they were the ones who lost?
But if they stayed here, it would really be too dangerous.
Chen Zhao had been locked inside for more than an hour. If he rushed out, who knew what he'd do?
"Let's go," Laurent said. "I don't want to see him."
The four fled the factory dejectedly.
"Laurent, how come you're back so early?" Winnip asked in surprise when she saw Laurent. "Didn't Chen come back with you?"
"There's nothing fun in LA," Laurent said disapprovingly. "That guy doesn't know the place either. It was a mistake to let him take me out. Winnip, when are we going home?"
"Not so soon. It's rare to come to LA. I have to walk around. Oh, I'm going to the Walk of Fame tomorrow."
…
Chen Zhao's clothes were wrapped in ice. After half an hour, they were completely torn. There was no way to wrap the ice anymore.
Chen Zhao started punching, but it was really painful. After a few punches, he couldn't continue.
In the end, he could only choose to kick with his feet, but he had already tried with his feet.
But the door was too thick, and he couldn't kick it open.
There was only one way to get out.
The Mouth of Gluttony in his right hand!
Only it could open the door.
Chen Zhao took out the Mind Connection magic scroll. He had seen it a few times before, but he didn't remember it all.
Right now, Chen Zhao could only sharpen his spear at the last minute, even though he didn't have much hope.
However, without the clamor outside, Chen Zhao was calmer than before.
Chen Zhao's right arm moved, but he didn't succeed.
When he activated the mental connection, Chen Zhao felt like he was creating a bolt with magic power and inserting it into a groove.
It was not easy to place the bolt accurately in the groove, and the bolt could not be too big or too small, it had to be just right.
Chen Zhao retracted some of his magic and tried to control the Mouth of Gluttony again.
But it failed again …
He seemed to have released too much magic power this time. He needed to adjust it again.
He tried again, failed …
He tried again, failed …
After a few times, Chen Zhao felt dizzy.
He couldn't continue anymore. Just then, a chill hit him. Chen Zhao shivered and suddenly became much more clear-headed.
Chen Zhao took out some roasted wyvern meat to replenish his strength and energy.
He tried to connect with the Mouth of Gluttony again. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his head and his arm shook violently.
Chen Zhao hurriedly stopped, but the pain disappeared as quickly as it came, as if nothing had happened.
Was it because he used magic too often?
Chen Zhao wasn't sure, so he tried to activate the mental connection again.
To his surprise, the connection seemed to be much smoother than before.
Success! It connected!
Chen Zhao finally felt that his right arm was different from before. He could control it freely, as if it belonged to him.
Chen Zhao's right arm grew bigger and was covered in a layer of metallic color.
Not only could he control the Mouth of Gluttony, but he could also feel its feelings.
And its appetite!
The Mouth of Gluttony wasn't interested in this metal door. Chen Zhao took a deep breath and swung his arm.
Bang!
The tempered glass shattered and the entire metal door caved in.
Large amounts of cold air started escaping. Chen Zhao didn't know how many times stronger this punch was than before.
Chen Zhao gathered strength again and punched again.
This punch was even stronger than the previous one. The entire wall shook and the sound echoed in the freezer.
The metal door was blasted away. Only then could Chen Zhao breathe in the fresh air and enjoy the warm airflow.
It was already late at night. Chen Zhao walked out of the factory. It was silent outside. There was no one.
This was an abandoned street. No one had lived here for a long time.
Not only had Laurent locked him in the freezer for eight hours, but he'd also driven his car away.
He didn't even have a phone, so he could only walk home.
After running for an hour, Chen Zhao finally ran home from the abandoned street. It was at least 50 kilometers.
"Chen, you're back." Fali saw that Chen Zhao was back. He was drenched in sweat. "How was your time with Dad today? Did you have fun?"
"Yes, very." Chen Zhao had a warm and bright smile.
"How was your time with Dad?"
"I think we've solved our problems," Chen Zhao said, smiling. "We promised to go out again tomorrow."
"Really? That's great. I can finally relax. " Fali hugged Chen Zhao. Her worries could finally be resolved. "Oh, is your phone out of battery? I couldn't get through to you."
"Oh, it's out of battery. I left it with your dad. I'll go get it from him tomorrow."
"Where did you guys go today?"
"That's a man's secret. Don't ask."
"Okay. I'm really happy to see that you guys are getting along."
"I'm happy too. I think I'll be good friends with your dad."
"Have you eaten?"
"I want to eat you first." Chen Zhao put his hand on Fali's waist and started to get naughty.
"You're so dirty. Go wash."
