The words fell.
Chen Jinzhao exerted force with his feet, and his entire person shot out like an arrow, instantly appearing before Number Three.
He intended to gravely injure the opponent at this moment!
Number Three's pupils contracted, and he immediately raised his saber to block.
However, Chen Jinzhao did not directly attack Number Three. Instead, he suddenly turned and swung his saber at Xu Jinsong. Xu Jinsong clearly hadn't reacted, and Chen Jinzhao slashed a wound over thirty centimeters long on his chest, revealing the ribs beneath.
"You—" Xu Jinsong exclaimed in shock.
Chen Jinzhao said coldly, "To prevent you from causing trouble for me, I can only inconvenience you for now."
Another saber strike.
This time, Xu Jinsong desperately blocked, but Chen Jinzhao's saber strike was so powerful that it cracked Xu Jinsong's tiger's mouth!
The saber in his hand also flew backward.
Clang!
Xu Jinsong was no match for Chen Jinzhao. Seeing the tip of the bloodthirsty Tai Sui saber pressed against his throat, he felt he would die the next moment. Only then did Number Three react and immediately turned to help. However, Chen Jinzhao did not deliver the killing blow. Instead, he used the saber hilt of Tai Sui to strike Xu Jinsong's chest heavily.
The latter flew backward, his life or death unknown.
Chen Jinzhao turned to fight Number Three. The thick scent of blood in the air ignited the wildness in his bones, making him even more bloodthirsty!
Even Number Three was frightened by this gaze.
This momentary lapse allowed Chen Jinzhao to find an opportunity and, without a word, he thrust his saber towards Number Three's carotid artery.
Number Three hastily retreated, nearly stumbling.
It was only at the critical moment that he blocked the saber strike with the body of his own saber; otherwise, he would have become a victim of Chen Jinzhao's blade.
"Number Four, are you alright?" Number Three looked at Xu Jinsong.
Xu Jinsong weakly replied, "I'm alright, I won't die for now. You don't need to worry about me, just go all out."
Number Three breathed a sigh of relief, truly afraid that Xu Jinsong might die before his eyes.
If this got out, wouldn't it make him lose all face?
Immediately after.
Number Three turned to look at Chen Jinzhao and sneered, "As expected of the legendary Candle Dragon. I thought I could easily kill you after you were injured. I didn't expect to still be at a disadvantage. This shows that your combat strength in your prime must be no weaker than Number One."
"It's even possible to rival the legendary Number Zero."
He had paid a very heavy price for his underestimation.
Chen Jinzhao's gaze focused on Number Three. His intuition told him that Number Three's aura was becoming increasingly terrifying, indicating that Number Three was likely getting serious.
As expected.
Number Three changed his tone and said coldly, "I am forced to use my trump card."
Under Chen Jinzhao's watchful and uncertain gaze, Number Three took a syringe from his pocket and injected the red liquid within into his body in front of Chen Jinzhao.
"Number Three!" Xu Jinsong exclaimed.
"Why are you doing this?"
Number Three did not answer Xu Jinsong. He took out two more syringes from his pocket and injected them into himself in the same manner.
Xu Jinsong's face turned even paler.
Then he murmured, "This is a potion that enhances one's potential in a short period. Its properties are extremely violent, and the effects are immediate."
"The side effects of this potion should not be low," Chen Jinzhao continued, following his words.
"Indeed," Xu Jinsong did not deny it.
"If only one injection is administered, the consequence is damage to the user's organs, which is irreversible. In other words, it's trading one's lifespan for short-term burst combat power. But now, he has injected three doses."
Without Xu Jinsong needing to elaborate, Chen Jinzhao could guess that the aftereffects would be severe, and it was not impossible for his internal organs to begin failing.
Number Three's muscles bulged under Chen Jinzhao's grave gaze, and the oppressive aura grew stronger, making Chen Jinzhao feel a tangible threat.
"I know that if I only inject one dose, I will definitely not be Chen Jinzhao's opponent, so I must go all out," Number Three said.
Even if it meant death, he would not frown.
Chen Jinzhao finally saw Number Three's true nature—he was a belligerent person, and a madman!
He frowned and said, "Very well, let me feel if your enhanced strength can truly match me!"
"Kill!"
They spoke in unison.
Under Xu Jinsong's shocked gaze, Chen Jinzhao and Number Three engaged in close combat once more.
This time, neither of them used weapons. They were resisting each other solely with physical strength!
Bang bang bang!
The sound of flesh meeting flesh reverberated, making Xu Jinsong's face extremely solemn. He was certain that with his current strength, if he encountered either of these two alone without help, he would be blown to pieces without any chance of winning.
What shocked him even more was yet to come.
The laboratory floor had already cracked and split due to their fighting, with some areas even sinking tens of centimeters deep.
It was important to note—
The laboratory floor was not covered with ordinary tiles, but with floor tiles made of special alloy.
"Too strong..."
"Is this the limit of what humans can achieve?" Xu Jinsong was completely convinced of the two of them.
Of course.
He admired Chen Jinzhao even more.
The battle between the two continued, with both sides having ignited their fighting spirit, neither willing to yield to the other.
Chen Jinzhao was secretly shocked.
He had initially thought that after Number Three's muscles bulged, his movement speed would slow down. In reality, not only did Number Three's speed not slow down, but he had become even more agile! A nimble powerhouse was definitely the most difficult opponent to deal with.
During the struggle, Chen Jinzhao did have opportunities to strike.
But Number Three was like an emotionless killing machine, feeling no pain whatsoever.
In fact.
Number Three was even more astonished than Chen Jinzhao.
After injecting three doses of the enhancement potion, his strength would increase by thirty to forty percent in a short period. However, in this state, he had not gained any advantage over Chen Jinzhao. It was worth noting that Chen Jinzhao was already seriously injured, which showed how terrifying Chen Jinzhao was.
"No matter how eloquent the words, they cannot describe your power. Only with more dominant and brutal fists can your legend be broken," Number Three said in a deep voice.
Under his full exertion, one punch broke through Chen Jinzhao's defense and struck Chen Jinzhao's chest!
Chen Jinzhao flew backward, creating a human-shaped imprint on the alloy steel plate of the laboratory wall, before sliding down from the plate and half-crouching on the ground, supporting himself with one hand.
"Cough cough cough..."
Some bloody foam was coughed out from Chen Jinzhao's throat, clearly fragments of internal organs.
Chen Jinzhao forced himself to stand up unsteadily and said to Number Three, "You are very strong, but it's impossible to kill me with this level of strength."
"Again!"
