Chapter 604: Chapter 163 Level 8 Epiphany, The Enemy Shamed into Shedding Armor! Bishop to the Rescue (6K Monthly Tickets)_4
Upon careful thought and recalling the encounter with the Heroic Society last night, Xu Shu suddenly had some doubts.
Could it be that the so-called “human experiments” weren’t directly leading to sacrifices, but rather a preliminary “screening” to see who was eligible?
Only a few were qualified, sent to a more concealed location for the next step; the majority, the “rejects,” would just be sent packing right here?
Thinking about it this way, it made sense.
But he felt as if he was missing something.
What was it?
Something wasn’t right…
Xu Shu’s brows furrowed even more.
Suddenly, he heard Yu Mingluan’s voice, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
Xu Shu: “Uh…”
Archbishop, don’t be like this! I wasn’t scared, but your words suddenly made the atmosphere feel all funny, actually making me afraid!
But then again, the aura of an expert really does have its uses.
Knowing that a third-tier peak expert was ready to act at any moment from behind him, Xu Shu’s heart settled, and he cast aside his stray thoughts.
An hour or so later, it was his turn in the queue.
Xu Shu sat in front of a dimly lit window, where a sweet-looking nurse in uniform made people feel at ease.
So it was blood drawing they wanted.
Using blood to preliminarily sort the crowd?
How to test blood for the “Evil God’s” favor?
Making blood tofu and inviting the Evil God to taste test?
Dare He come to the secure area? Could He enter the secure area?
“Sir, please relax, the tourniquet? Sir? Tourniquet! Tourniquet! Tourniquet!”
Xu Shu, lost in thought, didn’t hear the growing irritation of the nurse as she tapped on his arm, her scolding carrying a hint of coquettishness.
Xu Shu didn’t tease her, cooperatively finishing the blood draw.
After about ten minutes, the results came out.
“Hello, please come with us, your blood adaptation was very successful!” The nurse beamed, even intentionally leaning close to Xu Shu’s ear and whispered flirtatiously, “Cooperate nicely, you’re very brave, we could have a date tonight~”
Xu Shu glanced at her sideways, not responding much.
A date?
Do you say this to every man who comes to “repay his debts”? Trying to relax their vigilance?
Hmph, what a flake!
He memorized the name tag on her chest, then was led to a vehicle and blindfolded.
There were five other people in the vehicle, also deemed “successful” with their blood tests.
“It’s about time; this group goes first, start the car,” said a worker outside.
The vehicle then started, moving slowly and shakily, driving for hours without reaching the destination.
Xu Shu’s senses were sharp, he could feel the car was going in circles.
What were they doing?
Deliberately wasting time?
It was already like this now…
Through the blindfold, Xu Shu looked at the Tai Chu Scroll in helplessness.
He had intended to wait until reaching the destination before acting, but if he waited any longer, it would become night.
And clearly, these people wanted to delay until nightfall to conduct their secret activities.
No choice but to abandon the idea of saving the uses of the Tai Chu Scroll for a critical moment.
However, it might not be necessary; even though activating a journey in the safe zone would get you killed, as long as he didn’t actively “interact” with anyone, there was still hope to hang on and see if they would arrive before sunset.
“Journey, activate!” Xu Shu ordered in his mind.

[Current status being detected…]
[Detection complete.]
[Your situation is quite dire; you have entered journey mode within a secure zone, and the Star Tower is a highly sensitive bad piece of work, immediately going into high-alert status.]
[You, along with a bunch of deceived people, are on a Cao Gang vehicle, being taken to the Heroic Society’s base.]
[“Ah, young man, I felt you were very young when I got on; why would someone so young take this path… Young man, why are you covered in goosebumps?” Suddenly the vehicle jolted, and a woman in her thirties toppled over, falling into your arms.]
[Damn it, get off me! You cursed in your heart.]
[You engaged in physical contact with the woman, and Star Tower discovered you, greeting you with a bolt of lightning and curses: “The pig goes first!”]
[You died, and this journey has ended…]
