Xiao Chong, under the effects of the Six Qi Blood Augmenting Pill, quickly recovered from his dazed state. As he wondered, he turned his head and saw Ren Yuanhao’s familiar face.
“Why are you here? Why did you save me?”
“Now is not the time for explanations. I can only say that we are now grasshoppers on the same rope. I am going to the sixth floor to rescue someone, and you, after being imprisoned by these people for so many days, it’s time to let them taste some bitterness!”
“Damn it, you have no idea how powerful their guns are. Just one shot can paralyze the nerves, making one completely unable to move. How can we fight?”
As the two spoke, four or five guards aimed at the visible Xiao Chong, and bullets rained down instantly! The needle-tipped bullets immediately pierced his skin!
As soon as the bullet’s needle tip pricked his flesh, an extremely precise valve snapped open. The droplets containing paralyzing agents, as if pushed by a pump, immediately seeped into Xiao Chong’s blood. Xiao Chong had already braced himself for fainting, but Ren Yuanhao patted his shoulder and said in a deep voice, “Relax, you’ve taken my divine pill. How can these low-grade paralyzing drugs do anything to you?”
Xiao Chong circulated his internal energy. Not only did the drugs have no effect, but his combat power also instantly returned to its peak!
He looked down, pulled out a few bullets, and his laughter was like a beast awakening from a deep sleep, his eyes flashing with a predatory ferocity that chilled the guards. Seeing that their attack was ineffective, the guards unleashed another volley of gunfire.
Xiao Chong flashed sideways, swinging both hands, and managed to catch more than half of the bullets!
“Damn it, let you bastards taste this feeling of being limp and powerless all over!”
Xiao Chong’s arms moved, and his internal energy surged, instantly shooting the dozen or so bullets in his hands like Li Fei Dao. The guards, seeing the bullets that should have hit Xiao Chong hurtling towards them, were scared out of their wits. In their panic, they dodged left and right, but due to the narrow terrain, they collided with each other, cursing incessantly. They then felt their bodies pierced by an ice-cold needle, and in an instant, they slumped to the ground, losing consciousness.
“Satisfying!”
Xiao Chong quickly stepped forward and grabbed four or five guns. Just as he was about to turn back to Ren Yuanhao, the second and third waves of guards arrived!
“Brother Xiao, leave this place to me. I need to get to the sixth floor to rescue the person!”
“Alright, I happen to get to have a good fight and teach these fools a lesson!”
The two parted ways. Ren Yuanhao, carrying Cun Xue, flashed into the sixth-floor corridor, where guards were stationed everywhere, as if a net had been cast, waiting for Ren Yuanhao to jump in.
“Damn, so many people!”
His mind worked for a moment, and he knew how low the probability was of rescuing Ye Lan unharmed from these people. At this moment, he was only one floor away from the end of that purple line!
“Since that’s where the super-powered individuals are held, I might as well go directly to the seventh floor and cause some chaos. The rescued super-powered individuals will definitely head downstairs, and when these guards are overwhelmed, I can activate the ultimate buff from the secret medicine to help everyone escape, wouldn’t that be better?”
With this thought, Ren Yuanhao’s internal energy surged, and he squeezed through the gaps between people. Due to the effect of the secret medicine, these people only felt a gust of cold wind and did not notice Ren Yuanhao’s presence.
At this moment, the alarm sounded again, and the loudspeaker repeatedly broadcast speculations about Ren Yuanhao’s abilities.
“Attention, attention. The intruder Ren Yuanhao may have abilities such as invisibility or illusion. Any disturbance, respond with firearms!”
As soon as this was said, the guards on the sixth floor exchanged glances. Suddenly, as if realizing something, they immediately rushed to the seventh floor.
Ren Yuanhao stood before the iris door on the seventh floor, holding Cun Xue, at a loss.
“System小姐姐, is there any way to open the door control?”
“Isn’t there a saying, ‘If there’s a palace ahead, we’ll fire cannons.’ By analogy, if there’s a door control ahead, we’ll draw our swords!”
“Draw my sword? Are you sure it can cut through such a thick door?”
“As a super-powered individual, you should occasionally believe in metaphysics, believe in ancient sword-forging techniques, and even more so believe in the weapon in your hand!”
“You’re so eloquent, it’s a waste for you not to be in a pyramid scheme.”
“Don’t be silly, hurry, they’re catching up.”
Ren Yuanhao gripped Cun Xue, his forehead already sweating profusely. His internal energy surged like a mountain flood into his right hand. At this very moment, Cun Xue and the鲛人泪 (Jiaoren Lei - Mermaid’s Tear) seemed to generate an indescribable sense of connection, fitting perfectly as if a wooden wedge was inserted into a hole. An unprecedented magical experience, along with the surging internal energy, madly extended to the ferocious sword Cun Xue. The sword light twisted, like lightning across the sky. Ren Yuanhao seemed to merely follow his heart, and the long sword suddenly carved a sharp and flat cut on the thick door panel!
The door panel, toppled over, cracked open!
“Holy crap? Look at this!”
A burly guard pointed at the suddenly torn door panel, his mouth wide open, his face full of disbelief.
“Stop gawking and being surprised, it must be that kid surnamed Ren. Shoot quickly, shoot!”
The dozen or so guards finally snapped out of their immense shock. Out of fear, they unleashed a burst of bullets towards the empty space. Gunfire spat, dust swirled, and strong winds blew, freezing the scene. No one dared to step forward to inspect.
“Captain, that Ren Yuanhao is finished, right? No matter what, a burst of bullets from over ten guns would probably turn him into a sieve.”
“What are you talking about? If that guy got shot, he would have revealed his true form long ago. But look, is anyone there?” The captain, who had a blue medal on his wrist, more than the ordinary grunts, was shocked by what he saw.
Everyone’s faces were pale, but the captain reacted quickly. He immediately contacted the control room, suppressing his shock, and said, “We have probably located Ren Yuanhao’s whereabouts. He has already cut open the door and has likely entered the concentrated camp of super-powered individuals!”
“Useless! Why aren’t you chasing in? If even one super-powered individual is lost inside, you won’t have jobs anymore!”
The voice on the other end of the phone was stern, with a hint of tremor. The captain knew very well that if any super-powered individuals went missing, it wouldn’t just be them who would lose their jobs; even the man on the other end of the phone would likely be fired immediately.
The matter was serious. He switched channels, then notified the other guards to maintain strict security and not to leave their posts without authorization. At the same time, he led about ten guards into the mysterious area they had never had the chance to enter before.
Ren Yuanhao, however, had already stepped in before them. As far as his eyes could see, it was all bloody light and shadow, and what he heard was the clanking sound of shackles dragging.
