Zeng Lang narrowed his eyes and looked into the darkness, exclaiming with surprise, "Effortless! So you were here all along!"
"Xuan Lie! I have a few questions for you."
Xuan Lie looked at Zeng Lang, his grin widening, and burst into maniacal laughter.
Liu Feng let out a shout and charged forward. 138 Reading Network
Two burly men suddenly surged from Xuan Lie's sides, engaging Liu Feng in a brawl.
Liu Feng possessed excellent stamina and was skilled in combat, making his fights a spectacle to behold.
Zeng Lang had no time to concern himself with Liu Feng.
He walked slowly towards Xuan Lie, his gaze filled with animosity, and asked calmly, "Where is Gu Ya?"
Xuan Lie scratched his head with a look of feigned distress. With a wave of his hand, the holographic projection turned to darkness, accompanied by terrifying and chaotic screams that chilled the soul.
"This room is very peculiar. I don't understand the principle behind it, but nothing can be seen."
Zeng Lang, suppressing the unsettling sounds, shouted, "Why did my mother die?"
Xuan Lie covered his ears and raised a finger, silencing the noise. The room instantly returned to quiet.
He said slowly, "Well... tsk tsk, where should I begin?"
Zeng Lang walked towards Xuan Lie without hesitation.
Several burly men immediately blocked his path.
Xuan Lie said smugly, "Let me think, let me think~ Ah! I've got it. I'll start from the night I raped her!"
Zeng Lang's eyes widened instantly.
...
"Ling Ling!"
Wu Xuan called out softly.
On the ground, Ling Ling's eyes were tightly shut, her brow furrowed. She remained motionless.
Wu Xuan opened his exoskeleton helmet, removed it, and placed it aside. He then unfastened his own exoskeleton top and used it to shield Ling Ling's chest.
Just as Wu Xuan reached for Ling Ling's belt,
Ling Ling's eyes suddenly snapped open, and she grabbed his hand.
"You're awake!" Wu Xuan exclaimed in delight. "That's wonderful! I've locked us in here. We just need to wait for Gu Ya to find us!"
Saying this, Wu Xuan pulled his hand free from Ling Ling's grasp and walked to the iron door, pressing his ear against it to listen for any movement outside.
At this moment, Ling Ling slowly rose from behind Wu Xuan, her eyes filled with adoration as she quietly approached him.
As she walked, she began to remove her high heels and clothing.
By the time she reached Wu Xuan's back, she was completely uncovered.
"Wu Xuan..."
Ling Ling raised her fair hand and gently placed it on Wu Xuan's shoulder.
Wu Xuan turned around and was stunned.
Ling Ling's exquisite body was suddenly revealed before Wu Xuan's eyes.
The soft, white light illuminated her, making her appear incredibly beautiful.
It was as if her flesh was glowing.
Before Wu Xuan could react,
Ling Ling raised her hand and slowly cradled Wu Xuan's head.
She pressed her proud, soft mounds against Wu Xuan's astonished face.
Ling Ling parted her rosy, alluring lips and whispered softly, "Can I unlock your shackles?"
"Ling... Ling? Don't do this..." Wu Xuan was utterly bewildered.
As the softness enveloped his sweat-stained face, his mind went blank.
At this moment, Ling Ling released her hands and gazed at Wu Xuan with her hazy eyes.
Their eyes met, and Wu Xuan felt as if he had been ensnared by a siren's song,
or as if he had received an irresistible divine melody.
His hand moved involuntarily towards the unlock button of the exoskeleton armor.
With a series of "clanging" sounds,
the exoskeleton armor clattered to the ground.
Freed from his restraints, Wu Xuan stood up.
Two jade-like legs spread into an "M" shape.
Beneath those two peaks,
within the blessed land hidden by lush foliage,
a spring slowly opened and closed,
gushing forth sweet dew.
Wu Xuan gently picked up a drop from between the two green leaves and held it in his mouth, savoring it.
A cool, soft hand gently cupped Wu Xuan's chin.
Following the force of her hand, he began to climb upwards along the mountain range.
A violent explosion filled his brain.
Confinement, tenderness, and a trap.
Feminine softness subdued masculine might.
At this moment, Wu Xuan's eyes seemed to be veiled with a layer of faint blue gauze.
...
"It's endless! It's not stopping!"
Gu Ya roared,
The monsters beneath him multiplied,
swarming from all directions like a zombie horde, instantly burying Gu Ya.
Amidst the deafening, chaotic roars,
the system voice chimed:
【Ding, Main Quest initiated: Eliminate one thousand cloned mutants in the room.】
【Quest Reward: 8000 System Coins.】
【Mid-level System Mall items discounted by 36%.】
【Rare Item Drop Rate increased by 30%.】
Gu Ya, of course, couldn't hear this. At this moment, every cell in his body was trembling frantically as if about to explode.
The weight on him grew heavier.
The monster tide continued to pile up.
Gu Ya's rage surged, and his exoskeleton armor erupted with white steam.
In the dark room,
billowing flames suddenly burst from the monster tide,
shooting straight towards the ceiling.
The flames, like a fountain, split and exploded at the ceiling, illuminating the entire room,
and incinerating every monster touched by the flames into balls of fire.
Amidst the densely packed fireballs,
Gu Ya slowly stood up,
emerging steadily as if reborn from fire.
His exoskeleton armor's hands now sported a pair of flamethrowers.
More monsters surged forward.
Gu Ya assumed a stance, unleashing torrents of flame from both hands simultaneously.
In an instant, the flames ignited the monster tide,
and the entire room was filled with a suffocating, nauseating stench of burnt flesh.
The monster tide, roasted by the flames, let out even more deafening shrieks.
Enduring the noise and thick smoke,
Gu Ya, illuminated by the firelight, finally located the door.
Jetting flames from his feet,
and spewing fire from his hands,
Gu Ya rapidly moved towards the entrance.
He saw an embedded track on the floor, slowly rolling towards the center of the room.
"No wonder the door disappeared when I turned to pull it," Gu Ya muttered.
The darkness had stolen his senses, and he hadn't noticed the slow tread that transported Gu Ya to the center of the room.
He looked up again, his expression one of disgust, "Not a single one of these things shall be left."
As Gu Ya blasted open the iron door, thick black smoke surged out along the ceiling, spreading in all directions down the corridor.
Gu Ya stood at the doorway, engulfed in black smoke, furiously spraying fire inwards until the fuel in his flamethrowers was depleted, before heavily slamming the door shut.
Eerie screams emanated from within the iron door.
Gradually, the screams subsided.
The system quest was also completed.
Next, he needed to find them! They had wasted so much time!
Gu Ya thought, and strode out.
...
"Master, we've arrived," the old butler said softly from outside the hovercar.
Xuan Heyi slowly stepped out of the hovercar.
At this moment, another hovercar descended from the sky.
The words "Bureau of Biological and Genetic Management" were prominently emblazoned on its side.
A hint of displeasure, imperceptible to most, flickered across Xuan Heyi's usually placid expression.
A young man dressed in a black Zhongshan suit alighted from the hovercar and walked steadily to Xuan Heyi's side.
Xuan Heyi nodded lightly, smiling, "What wind blows you here?"
The young man returned the salute, smiling, "Naturally, the ill wind stirred by your son."
"You moved the Gene Biology Department from the Hecheng Society to Liehuang Company without a word."
"Coincidentally, Liehuang Company has welcomed some uninvited guests."
"I've been sent by the higher-ups to investigate."
Xuan Heyi said slowly, "We dare not disobey the words of the higher-ups."
"But tonight is a family matter for the Xuan clan. It's all minor trivialities, so there's no need to trouble you. Please come again at dawn."
The young man stared into Xuan Heyi's eyes and said, "They say even an upright official finds it hard to settle family disputes. So today, I shall be a corrupt official."
"Sort out your family affairs."
With that, the young man straightened his head and strode towards the company building.
Xuan Heyi lowered his head, his gaze fixed on the young man.
"Master, what should we do?" the old butler asked.
Xuan Heyi said softly, "Dawn is near. Notify everyone below to halt work today. Seal off Liehuang Company, station guards at all entrances and exits, and allow no one to approach."
"Understood," the old butler replied slowly, walking away.
Xuan Heyi sighed, and with a group of men in black behind him, headed towards the building.
