Chapter 83: Chapter Fifty-One: The Secret Room
The principle of ’Xing’ is very simple, it’s akin to an engine where human flesh and blood are the fuel.
The more flesh provided, the stronger the power ’Xing’ unleashes.
CCG must be out of their minds to invent something like this. Frequent use of ’Xing’ isn’t just about injuries, it might even shorten your lifespan.
Within CCG, it’s not just Yuna using ’Xing’, people like Yukinori Shinohara and Black Basalt are also using ’Xing’.
This makes Su Xiao suspect that the higher-ups in CCG don’t care about the life and death of investigators.
All the actions of the CCG higher-ups faintly reveal an attitude that as long as ghouls can be expelled, it doesn’t matter if investigators live or die.
Some high-ranking investigators might have noticed this, but they haven’t given up, because they are fighting for their beliefs...
After taking the ’Xing’ Su Xiao threw over, ’Xing’ clung onto Yuna’s upper body.
"I need to rest again for a while."
Without hesitation, Yuna pressed the switch at the back of her neck, and ’Xing’ was activated once again.
Three seconds later, Yuna, wielding a scythe, had her strength enhanced by several folds at least.
"I’ll slice you all up, hahaha~."
Yuna let out a strange laugh, twirling her scythe, quickly slaughtering the remaining dozen eyeless ghouls.
In under 30 seconds, more than a dozen eyeless ghouls were wiped out.
Yuna’s speed in killing ghouls was fast, but she fell even quicker, as ’Xing’ began to bite Yuna.
"Help, help~."
Moments ago, Yuna was frantically slaughtering ghouls, now she was lying on the ground, reaching out to Su Xiao for help.
Leaning against the wall, Su Xiao walked to Yuna and began roughly extracting ’Xing’ from her body.
"Rip~. Rip~."
Su Xiao successfully stripped ’Xing’ from Yuna, making her body curl up into a ball.
"Stop pretending to be a big shrimp here, let’s go, there are at least a thousand of those ghouls."
"But~, this is also..."
Yuna remained curled up on the ground.
"Shame or corpsification, you choose."
After saying that, Su Xiao began to walk forward slowly, wanting to leave the 24th District as soon as possible because it was more dangerous than he imagined.
"Wait, wait for me."
Disregarding her shame, Yuna struggled to stand, put away her Quinque, and followed Su Xiao.
"Please do not look back, I beg you."
Yuna followed Su Xiao with an awkward gait, holding two Quinque boxes in front of her.
"Put this on."
Su Xiao took out a set of clothes from his storage space and tossed them to Yuna, who dressed quickly in just five seconds.
"Darn."
Yuna suddenly stopped, her face looking troubled.
"What’s wrong?"
Su Xiao looked at Yuna.
"The battle earlier was too intense, and I lost the compass."
Losing the compass after penetrating deep into the 24th District meant the possibility of getting lost, and if lost, the chance of survival was extremely slim.
"It’s fine, I marked along the way. Based on my hand-drawn map, we can get out quickly."
Su Xiao drew a line on the ground with Dragon Slash, indicating the location of this path, and took out his hand-drawn map to make a note.
"I wonder how Arima is doing. Compared to you two, I’m really useless."
Yuna followed behind Su Xiao with her head down.
"Arima won’t die."
Yuna looked at Su Xiao with confusion.
"If he dies so easily, I wouldn’t be covering for him."
Based on the original work, Su Xiao didn’t know much about Arima Kishou. After personal contact, he found that Arima Kishou was a very smart guy with many secrets.
"This way."
As Su Xiao passed a corner and was about to continue forward, he noticed something strange about the fleshy wall beside him.
The other parts of the fleshy wall were seamless, but in front of him, there was a 40 cm wide gap in the fleshy wall.
The inside of the gap was pitch black, and Su Xiao took out a strong flashlight to illuminate inside.
The gap in the fleshy wall was narrow outside and wide inside. From his position, he could vaguely see some dust-covered items inside.
Yuna poked her head in.
"Is this~, a secret chamber?"
"It should be."
Su Xiao put away Dragon Slash and squeezed sideways into the gap in the fleshy wall.
"What’s in there? I have claustrophobia, can I not go in?"
Yuna, who was ruthless when killing ghouls earlier, now showed a sign of fear.
"Those eyeless ghouls could show up at any time. If you want to fight them, you can stay outside. But in your current state, you might become a snack."
While speaking, Su Xiao had already squeezed into the depths of the gap, where the surrounding space widened.
With the flashlight illuminating the area, Su Xiao observed the situation inside the secret chamber.
A moldy odor permeated the chamber, which was filled with some unknown objects.
Some items resembled a wooden table, others were similar to boxes, all covered in thick dust, obscuring their appearance.
This place somewhat resembled a laboratory, and it was very old, with no electronic devices. A dust-covered balance in the corner attested to the lab’s antiquity.
"I hate cramped places."
Yuna squeezed into the chamber, shaking her head to remove the dust.
Su Xiao had entered this secret chamber out of necessity; his condition was not good, and he needed to rest temporarily.
The place didn’t give off a dangerous vibe, or else he wouldn’t have entered it.
He asked Yuna to place the Quinque boxes in the gap of the fleshy wall to prevent it from suddenly closing.
Even if the Quinque boxes couldn’t stop the gap from closing, they could buy some time to escape, as they were very sturdy, especially the one for ’Xing’, which was made of special alloy.
"What is this~? A laboratory?"
"It should be, and it’s been here for quite a while."
Su Xiao walked over to a wooden table and wiped off the dust on it.
"Cough cough cough~."
The dust stirred up, making Su Xiao cough.
"Crash~."
A glass container fell to the ground, shattering to pieces.
Su Xiao instinctively stepped back, observing the glassware that fell to the ground.
The glassware had shattered, and from the fragments, it was identifiable as a beaker, with a yellowish inner wall and some suspicious black spots.
"There are places like this in 24th District, I’ve never seen them before."
Yuna curiously looked around.
After confirming there was no danger in the secret chamber, Su Xiao leaned back against the wall, took out a roll of bandages, and began to dress his wounds.
Yuna’s injuries were not severe, mostly external ones. She was currently experiencing a powerless reaction from using ’Xing’, but after resting for a while, she would recover.
However, Su Xiao’s injuries were serious; back-to-back battles had severely drained him, and he had chunks of flesh bitten off by a primitive ghoul earlier, not to mention he had been severely bitten by ’Xing’ at last.
"Let’s rest for a few hours before we proceed."
Su Xiao took out food and fresh water, eating some to regain stamina, and gestured for Yuna to eat as well.
After consuming a Salt Rice Ball, Su Xiao felt some of his injuries healed.
There was a Blue Quality Potion in Su Xiao’s pocket, which he indicated not to use.
The Golden Fried Rice, of which he still had one serving, was the best restorative food he currently possessed, making it precious.
Yuna sat in front of Su Xiao, replenishing her food and water as all her supplies were lost.
After eating the Salt Rice Ball, Su Xiao felt some recovery in his injuries.
He mentally activated the branding and checked his existing CCG Contribution Value, realizing that killing that primitive ghoul earlier earned him significant CCG Contribution Value.
Moments ago, after slaughtering over a hundred eyeless ghouls, he wondered if he could gain any contribution points.
[First-Class Investigator, current Contribution Value: 7723/10000.]
Su Xiao squinted his eyes, realizing that he had earned over 5000 CCG Contribution Value in a short time within the 24th District.
There are definitely colossal secrets here, and they are closely related to the CCG.
If he could explore the secrets here, then...
Su Xiao was considering whether exploring the 24th District’s secrets might turn him against the CCG, but it could also bring enormous gains.
Now is not the time. Even if I turn against them, it should be after exchanging for that Blue Quality Potion.
