"…" Adams looked at Dr. Culeja with a gloomy gaze while holding a stack of evaluation notes in his hand.
"You can't kill them. Let them go, or I won't help you with any more experiments." Dr. Culeja just stared at the life-threatening scenes on the projection screen, her tone extremely urgent.
Yarlin narrowed his eyes slightly. Suddenly, he grinned, revealing his white teeth. "You probably don't know how to talk to me. It seems that my excessive politeness and respect have made you forget yourself and misjudge your own value. That gave you the courage to threaten me!"
Dr. Culeja's heart skipped a beat. She looked at Yarlin's cold eyes and felt as if she was being stared at by a cold venomous boa. An uncontrollable chill crept up her spine from the soles of her feet to her head. She suddenly realized that she had made a stupid mistake. "What do you want to do?" She asked in panic.
The broken ballpoint pen in Dr. Culeja's hand scratched her finger. She hurriedly walked towards Yarlin, but her shoulder was grabbed by someone. Five fingers firmly restrained her body like steel pliers. It was Adams's hand.
"Dr. Culeja, your talents should be used in the field of scientific research instead of being blinded by senseless anger. Especially when anger can't save those little rats and will only cost you your life." Adams restrained Dr. Culeja with one hand and gently raised his other hand to catch Culeja's kicking ankle. He stared into Culeja's eyes expressionlessly. "You see, a mechanically modified limb is still useful, isn't it?"
"You …" Dr. Culeja had no time to argue with Adams. She struggled desperately, but her voice involuntarily weakened. She begged Yarlin's back in a low voice, "If you let them go, I, Dr. Culeja, will be grateful to you for the rest of my life. I will do my best in future experiments …"
On the projection screen, a guard covered in scales, with only a pair of eyes exposed, glided silently along the sand. He suddenly launched an attack and cut off one of Choba's horns with his awl-like arm. The scales that shot out from his arm almost brushed past Choba's skull, leaving a ghastly trail of blood.
Dr. Culeja's heart almost jumped out of her throat. The blood pumped from her heart rushed to her head. Her face was flushed red and purple. Her tongue was stiff and knotted due to nervousness. She could not spit out the correct words. She could only speak in a muffled voice.
"I never believe in other people's promises. Besides, you're lying!" Yarlin turned half of his face and sneered. "You only care about that talking reindeer. You don't care about the life and death of the others!"
Dr. Culeja was speechless. She knew that Yarlin had completely seen through her mind. Fortunately, she no longer concealed her impatience. "Let him go, I promise …"
"Ha …" Yarlin waved his hand and interrupted Dr. Culeja's promise. He stroked the cross between his eyebrows and said with certainty, "Instead of believing in your promise, why not let that reindeer reunite with you? I believe that you will be able to speed up the progress of the various experiments!"
Dr. Culeja's face was drained of blood. Adams let go of his hand and let Dr. Culeja fall limply to the ground. A touch of hypocritical pity appeared on his cold, dark silver face, but he was secretly delighted. "Yarlin is indeed good at manipulating people. Now Dr. Culeja is completely under his control. Oh, that reindeer can also be a lab assistant. Hehehe …"
"Choba, be careful!"
The straw hats exclaimed. Choba was carrying Zoro on his back, and the sharp elbows in his pupils enlarged rapidly. Blood flowed from his forehead into his eyes, and he couldn't dodge in time. Luffy and the others were also in a tough battle and couldn't help in time.
Tch!
In the nick of time, the elbow moved away strangely and pressed against the wall right next to Choba's face. The ferocious barbed scales on the arm also retracted. It only scraped off a layer of skin on Choba's face.
"He's not dead?!"
Choba's eye sockets cracked. He stared at the face close to him without blinking. It was a face full of black scales. It looked like there were countless nails sticking out of the flesh. A pair of red eyes flashed with a cruel light. Choba could even clearly see his own horrified reflection in the other party's pupils.
Withdrawing his elbow, the horrifying labyrinth guards retreated like a tide. The collapsed sand wall automatically healed. The straw hats blinked. They did not understand what had happened and gathered together. However, they did not dare to act rashly because the air was filled with an even more dangerous and eerie aura.
A large number of monsters retreated and hid behind the sand-wall maze. In front of them was an empty and bloody scene. On the sand floor, broken corpses and broken limbs were dripping with black blood, making a rustling sound. It was as if the blood was being pulled together by an invisible force. A blurry and bloody human face first appeared, and then the whole figure wriggled and solidified.
Small soldiers retreating did not mean that the general was safe. Instead, it usually meant that the big boss was about to appear. Usopp swallowed his saliva. This scene was very similar to the adventure stories he made up for Keya. In the stories, he could escape every time, but this time, he was not sure about the reality at all.
The wriggling blood condensed into a three-meter-tall humanoid creature. Its scarlet body gave off a strong ominous feeling. It did not have a complete face. To be exact, it only had a pair of hollow eyes and a bloody mouth that opened all the way to its cheeks. It did not have a nose or ears.
There was no need to compare. Just this appearance alone made the straw hats' hearts sink. This bloody figure was definitely more terrifying than the monsters just now.
"A monster condensed from blood. Just how many strange monsters are there in this labyrinth?!" Luffy let out a sigh of relief. He turned around and saw that almost all of his companions were injured. Zoro was especially injured. His hands were wrapped in bandages, and he couldn't even hold his sword properly. He gritted his teeth and said, "Sanji, you think of a way to get everyone out of here. I'll cover the rear!"
Sanji looked at Luffy with a serious face and nodded heavily. In fact, he had no idea how to get out of this labyrinth.
"Escape? What kind of joke are you talking about?" The wall behind Luffy and the others was unknowingly dyed red. The sand festered and fell off, revealing the roots of a tentacle. The pitch black tentacle was soaked in the color of blood. With a bang, it split into countless finger-sized tentacles. It looked like countless blood vessels were crazily wriggling. A dark figure was wrapped in it. "In front of the eyes of the sixth apostle, Dalaran, your blood will run out and you will die!"
