Chapter 202: Lu Yu's Enemy_2
"All security personnel, respond immediately. Head to Laboratory No.3 and transport the test subject inside to the emergency passage." After issuing the order, those guards who were advancing toward the demon man turned around and rushed to Laboratory No.3.
He didn't pin all his hopes on the guards. Speaking to the researchers in the hall, he said, "Analyze the data as quickly as possible. All data is being uploaded to Red Cloud in real-time. Encrypt the confidential files in the institute and upload them to Red Cloud."
"We can die here, but the data about the Devil's Den must not be lost. Hua Country has no chance to study a second Devil's Den. This is our only opportunity." He scanned the crowd and said solemnly.
Everyone was silent. After a moment of silence, they each returned to their positions, processing and analyzing data, encrypting and uploading original files... All work was proceeding methodically.
The authority figure watched the surveillance. The guards had already entered Laboratory No.3, carrying the massive ice block toward the emergency passage. The ice block was over three meters long, more than a meter wide, and nearly a meter thick, encasing a demon hunter with crimson skin.
When they were first brought to the underground research facility, the most conspicuous were the headless corpse and this three-meter-tall demon form of the demon hunter. On the contrary, the demon man, also a level 4 demon hunter, was ignored and moved into the freezer storage.
The demon man devoured the hearts of other demon hunters inside the freezer, and afterward consumed experimental material gathered from various sources, greatly enhancing its power.
Breaking through the strong freezer door, it infiltrated the underground research facility from the inside.
Two guards painstakingly dragged a heavy manual cart toward the emergency passage, surrounded by their vigilant gun-bearing companions. They did not really know what kind of monster they were facing, only experiencing the terror of that creature through the wails and screams when their comrades died.
Creatures that couldn't be killed even with firearms cast a heavy shadow over the hearts of many guards.
If not for being told that reinforcements had arrived and were on the other side of the emergency passage, they would've had no courage to keep facing that creature after hearing their colleagues scream.
Plop~ The sound of chunks of flesh hitting the ground was heard, and the first thing that caught everyone's eye were a few writhing red pieces of meat on the ground. These chunks of flesh, upon seeing the guards, leaped over rapidly, making a plopping sound.
"What kind of monster is this?" a guard exclaimed.
"Who cares what it is, shoot it dead!"
Bang bang bang~ Bullets flew wildly inside the corridor. Several jumping pieces of flesh were hit by bullets, shattered into even smaller pieces which wriggled on the ground, their ability to move significantly diminished.
Seeing that several meat worms had been smashed by bullets, the guards looked relieved, "Looks like firearms still work. Thought it was some terrifying monster, turns out it's this weak."
Grinding down the crawling pieces of flesh, guards kicked away any chunks at their feet. They had already gotten used to these chunks of flesh still moving after being shattered. Researchers often carried moving bloody flesh around the institute.
"You stepped on me." A voice that could hardly be differentiated between male and female rang out.
"Who goes there?" The guard quickly raised his gun, scanning the passage around with vigilance, shouting loudly to bolster his courage.
Suddenly hearing a strange voice neither male nor female, a few guards were quite startled, especially encountering a crisis during relaxation after tension, the sense of fright was even stronger.
Plop~ A figure draped in a white lab coat appeared in everyone's view. The demon man gazed at Chi Yan behind them, glanced at the guard who had crushed its flesh, and the corner of its mouth slightly curled up.
"Was it you who stepped on me?"
As soon as the words fell, the demon man's figure appeared in front of the guard. In terror, the guard instinctively pulled the trigger. The gun emitted a dull sound as all the bullets fired at close range struck the demon man.
The white lab coat on the demon man was torn to shreds by the bullets.
"Ah! That hurts!" the demon man exaggeratedly screamed, suddenly leaning close to the guard's face. With their faces less than five centimeters apart, the demon man smiled evilly, "Actually, it doesn't hurt at all."
Clink~ The bullets were squeezed out of its body, making a sound as they hit the ground.
He held a bullet and pressed it into the guard's body with his fingers, causing the guard to cry out in pain and agony.
"Let him go!" A guard pointed a gun at the demon man's head, shouting loudly.
The demon man ignored him completely. That guard pulled the trigger directly, the bullet striking the demon man's head, tearing it apart and exposing the skull within. Sparks flew where the bullet collided with the skull.
Boom! The demon man suddenly felt it had lost its hearing as a bullet accidentally entered its ear canal, striking its brain from a place unprotected by the skull.
The demon man's face contorted fiercely, crushing the guard in its hand. Its flesh and blood surged, transforming into fine tentacles that invaded all orifices of the guard who wounded him.
Brutally tearing the guard's body apart.
Reaching into its ear hole, it extracted the bullet lodged in its brain. Staring at the bullet, the demon man displayed a sinister demeanor, squeezing it forcefully until it shattered.
Looking up at the guards taking Chi Yan away, the damaged flesh and blood around its right ear wriggled rapidly, wounds healing swiftly, but the demon man still felt its hearing had diminished, its right ear somewhat unclear.
Perhaps the brain was damaged and hadn't fully recovered.
Or maybe the regenerated part of the brain wasn't as functional as the original, causing its hearing not to restore fully.
