Chapter 113: Chapter 113 The Beginning of Perfect Evolution
"Impossible!" Lin Pei barked.
"Why is it impossible?" Ke Liang retorted, "The door needs to move inward for the grooves on both sides to catch the pulley’s axle and lift it up. Once the chain breaks, the door springs back to the wall, and without a point of leverage on top, it’s almost impossible to open from the inside."
"I don’t believe it!" Lin Pei lifted Shen Xin up in a fit of rage, pressing the sword against her neck and pushing her forward, "You go in front, I want to see it with my own eyes!"
Ke Liang wanted to say something, but Gu Yu suddenly grabbed his arm and asked Lin Pei, "Is the door towards the town also closed?"
"What did you say?!" Both Ke Liang and Wang Chaoqing exclaimed in unison.
"No wonder!" Gu Yu started to laugh, "I thought it was strange before. We could still see outside from this door when Xu Huo opened it. But when we got here, the door was closed and the chain broken. It turns out it was because of you."
"Xu Huo went back to town, and you didn’t want to give him another chance to come out, so you sabotaged the main gate, didn’t you?"
"Ha-ha! It’s really self-inflicted!"
"Shut up!" Lin Pei shouted, "There must be another way to open it. Did Xu Huo give you the key to open the door? Bring it out now!"
Gu Yu mocked, "Do you think we used your damn key to open the door?"
"You think you have the only clue, but there’s actually no key."
"No key?" Lin Pei was stunned for a moment, "Then how did you open the door?"
"Use your brain," Gu Yu paused, then continued, "Now that both doors are closed, we might as well wait to die."
Saying this, she simply sat down to tear up her clothes and bandage her wounds.
Ke Liang did the same.
Seeing this, panic began to rise in Lin Pei’s heart—he hadn’t expended so much effort just to come here and die!
With a wave of his sword, he ordered, "Everyone move forward, or I’ll chop off her hand!"
Gu Yu and the others exchanged heavy glances, then looked at Shen Xin and reluctantly complied.
The five of them returned to the front door, which was just as they said: the chain had broken, and the door had retracted into the wall.
Lin Pei pushed Shen Xin away and tried to open the door himself.
Only one of the chains on either side had broken. The other pulley axle had been jammed in the door until Gu Yu and the others tried to lift the door using one chain. Now the door had slowly receded into the wall.
Lin Pei frantically groped the wall for a while and repeatedly slashed at the door over ten times before he finally had to face reality.
Gu Yu and Shen Xin supported each other and watched his futile actions with cold eyes, taunting, "If Xu Huo were here, he might have come up with a solution. The method to open the door was what he guessed. Too bad you killed him."
That comment touched Lin Pei’s nerves. He stormed back, grabbed Wang Chaoqing, and pushed him towards the drawbridge, his face ferocious as he stared at the other three, "Now reveal how to open the door, or I’ll have to take a hostage first."
"Ahhh! I don’t want to die!" Wang Chaoqing flailed, tears and snot covering his face as he stared down at the Aliens leaping towards him, and he screamed, "I’ll say! I know too! I’ll tell you!"
Lin Pei pulled him back in, resting the sword on his shoulder, "Speak!"
Wang Chaoqing nervously revealed the method for opening the door, and Lin Pei appeared incredulous, "It’s that simple?"
"What, you don’t believe it?" Gu Yu brought up Xu Huo with a subdued voice, "It’s that simple, but it’s not something just anyone can think of."
Lin Pei grabbed the flashlight from Ke Liang’s hand and shone it into the fence. After searching for a while, he suddenly pointed towards one side of the wall and said, "There’s a maintenance scaffold there, it should lead to the west gate."
"The entire interior of the enclosure is a circle. You can also get to the west gate from the inside."
He said, tying a bungee cord to the top corner of the fence, "Come over and help."
"You want to dismantle the fence?" Ke Liang exclaimed in shock, "There are aliens inside!"
"So what?" Lin Pei replied without looking back, "Aliens can’t climb that high."
"What’s the point of going to the west gate? The gate can’t be opened from the inside," said Gu Yu.
"We won’t know until we get there!" Lin Pei roared back, turning his head, "When the time comes, even if we have to pry, we’ll pry the gate open!"
Gu Yu and the others exchanged glances and chose to help because this was also their only chance to get out.
After tearing open the iron fence, Lin Pei had Wang Chaoqing go up first, "To scout the way."
Wang Chaoqing was trembling with fear, "Brother, I can’t, I don’t have the ability..."
Lin Pei was about to draw his sword, but Ke Liang stepped forward proactively, "I’ll go first."
He took the lead up the footrest, followed by Wang Chaoqing and Shen Xin. Just as Gu Yu was about to go, Lin Pei stopped her and went up himself, warning, "Don’t try any tricks, or I’ll push Shen Xin down to feed the aliens first. Keep your distance."
Gu Yu followed with a dark expression, watching his back and couldn’t help thinking, he was actually quite clever, so why was he so different from Xu Huo?
And Xu Huo, was he still alive?

Daylight gradually broke, and the sun’s rays shone anew on the silent town. Dolls strewn everywhere, clocks visible all around, the high walls reflecting the sunlight—apart from the debris left by fighting and explosions, everything in the town seemed unchanged from yesterday.
"Crack!"
A piece of broken stone fell from the ruins, the sound reaching out in all directions, but no aliens appeared, nor could any superfluous noises be heard. The two aliens seemed to be cut off by the metal door, totally unable to hear any outside sounds.
But the truth was not so, because they were violently banging against the iron window protecting the high-frequency instrument, not to destroy the instrument but aiming for the person behind it in the room.
Xu Huo awoke from lying on the ground the entire night. The moment he opened his eyes, his pupils constricted into a thin line but quickly returned to normal.
Propping himself up, his hand accidentally touched something nearby, clanging, and the sound of the aliens’ impacts outside intensified.
His consciousness quickly returned, and he surveyed the entire room. Different from before he lost consciousness, his eyes now were like night-vision goggles, allowing him to see clearly in the darkness—the overturned table, suitcases, scattered syringes and notes on the floor, and the empty syringes.
He was still alive and rational, which meant he had used the right injections.
Picking up a syringe next to him, he found the label at the end: both were P0S.
Written clearly on the notebook beside him was, "The P0S injection is the completed version of the P0 Potion, with a more perfected defect suppression effect, and must be used at the beginning of evolution."
"If the P1 Evolution Potion or any other advanced version of the potion is taken, once the second stage of evolution begins, the evolutionary process is irreversible. Genetic flaws will persist throughout the evolution process. Stopping or substituting the S-Version Drug cannot prevent mutations, death, or other outcomes; the S-Version Drug will become completely ineffective."
"Before using the P1 Potion, the Evolver has a lesser dependence on the potion. At this time, using the S-Version Drug will interrupt the flawed evolutionary process and initiate a complete, perfect evolution."
The words "perfect evolution" were underlined emphatically.
"Looks like I’m pretty lucky." The S-Version Drug happened to interrupt the mutation process, smoothly transitioning him into perfect evolution.
Xu Huo chuckled softly, picking up the items from the ground and placing them in the suitcase. As soon as his hand touched the suitcase, the game interface popped up:
