Chapter 190: Chapter 190 Unsealing (Part 1)

Lu Xi timidly looked at Su Ming and asked softy and sweetly,

"Big brother, have you seen my father and mother?"

Su Ming shook his head and quietly said to Lu Xi,

"No, but we were hired by your father to rescue you. We’ll take you away from here now. As for your father and mother, once we meet up with the main force, we’ll figure out a way to rescue them."

"Mmm hmm."

Lu Xi obediently nodded in response.

"Then there’s no time to waste, let’s go."

Su Ming reached out his hand to Lu Xi.

Lu Xi had just stood up when her legs gave out, and she squatted back down.

"What’s wrong?"

Su Ming was slightly taken aback and asked with concern.

"Lu Xi’s legs are numb; I can’t walk."

Lu Xi felt quite wronged, with tears hanging at the corners of her eyes, as she said in a pitiful voice.

Seeing this, An Ruoxue immediately stepped forward and said to Lu Qian,

"Come here, big sister will carry you."

"No, big sister is scary, Lu Qian doesn’t want you to carry me."

Lu Xi constantly shook her little head.

An Ruoxue was also taken aback for a moment; it was her first time being rejected.

Lin Chuyu, seeing this, also reached out a hand to Lu Xi and softly said,

"Shall I carry you then?"

"No, no, I want big brother to carry me."

Lu Xi spoke as if she were very frightened.

Seeing that Lu Xi wanted him to carry her, Su Ming gently lifted Lu Xi into his arms.

Lu Xi obediently lay on Su Ming’s body, her small hands wrapping around his neck.

"Do NPCs these days all know how to choose people?"

An Ruoxue spoke with a somewhat odd expression.

Lin Chuyu, on the other hand, asked with some worry,

"Su Ming, is it okay for you to carry her? Will it affect your movement?"

"It’s fine, let’s go!"

Su Ming then carried Lu Xi, leading Lin Chuyu away from the secret room.

Shortly after, the tightly closed door to the room slowly opened a crack. Su Ming carefully poked his head out, observing the situation outside.

After confirming it was safe, he said to Lin Chuyu,

"That monster is gone, let’s go!"

"Okay!"

Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue nodded in response.

The three of them snuck out of Abosa King’s residence and ran forward.

....

Second floor underground·Central Laboratory.

Along with a huge explosion, the two Fourth Generation Mechas·Shadow Slayer piloted by Timi and Dierken were blasted away, crashing heavily onto the large experimental equipment, which collapsed and shattered with a crash.

"Lord Timi, Lord Dierken!"

Everyone called out in utter panic.

"Don’t worry about us, stop them!"

Struggling to its feet, Timi’s mecha, crackling with electric arcs, shouted to the subordinates.

Everyone’s eyes turned to the IV-type Lord-level·Chilami and the Fourth Generation Biological Mecha·Sin Salamander charging like mad towards the imprisoned V-type Heroic Level Chilami matron, Ilyas.

A series of Flame Knights fired beams of light at them.

Regrettably, the IV-type Lord-level·Chilami and the Fourth Generation Biological Mecha·Sin Salamander completely ignored the attacks, letting the beams strike them without effect.

"Don’t think you can get past!"

At that moment, two Third Generation Mecha·Gun Knights charged forward, thrusting their Metal Long Spears in an attempt to block their path.

However, a Lord-level·Chilami Model IV and a Fourth Generation Biological Mecha·Sin Salamander, indifferent to the Metal Long Spears piercing their bodies, struck a blow on the Third Generation Mecha·Gun Knights.

The two Third Generation Mecha were brutally sent flying.

In no time, the Lord-level·Chilami Model IV and the Fourth Generation Biological Mecha·Sin Salamander charged through to the center of the laboratory like a knife through butter, reaching the metallic platform.

The humanoid Lord-level·Chilami Model IV let out an angry roar and smashed its fist onto the massive glass container.

Crack!

A fissure instantly appeared on the sturdy glass container.

Timi and the others felt their hearts jolt at this sight.

Just then, the body of the V-Type Heroic Level Chilami Mother·Ilyas inside the glass container suddenly contracted and sparked black arcs of electricity.

A series of black warning boxes popped up on the virtual operating screen.

"Warning: Container damaged!"

"Warning: Experimental subject Kais biological reaction soaring."

Boom~

In an instant, the entire glass container shattered with a roar, and the menacing body of the V-Type Heroic Level Chilami Mother·Ilyas extended several tentacles, which ensnared and dragged the Lord-level·Chilami Model IV and the Fourth Generation Biological Mecha·Sin Salamander into its body, devouring them.

Timi felt as if she had fallen into an ice pit, shivering involuntarily. Now that the V-Type Heroic Level Chilami Mother·Ilyas had been released, the rescue mission was doomed to fail with no chance of victory, so she decisively gave the order.

"Retreat!"

In an instant, all the surviving personnel started fleeing in their mechs.

Timi and Dereken also activated their Jet Wings, rushing toward the laboratory exit.

...

Elsewhere, Su Ming, carrying Lu Xi and with Lin Chuyu in tow, successfully returned to the first underground level using the service elevator.

"Safe."

Lin Chuyu stuck her head out of the elevator, looked left and right to ensure there was no danger, and then spoke up.

Su Ming immediately carried Lu Qian and led the two of them out of the elevator and sprinted toward the right.

"Su Ming, are we heading back to Hangar #1?"

"That’s right."

"Isn’t that dangerous? After all, we don’t even have a mech right now," Chuyu said with a worried expression on her face.

"We have no choice. After all, the only exit we definitely know of is there; the other exits are likely sealed off. But don’t worry too much; I reckon that the monsters won’t linger there, and we should still have a chance to slip out."

If Su Ming had a choice, he wouldn’t have chosen that way either.

"Okay!"

Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue agreed in response.

Moments later, Su Ming and his companions left the artificial area and entered the mecha-only corridor, sprinting toward Hangar #1.

They could soon see the exit of the corridor when An Ruoxue’s eyes lit up and she exclaimed.

"Up ahead is Hangar #1!"

"Let’s break out."

Su Ming yelled with some excitement.

Just then, from the ceiling of the corridor, a ferocious IV-type Chilami Genomic Variant·Bone Corpse Beast shed its protective color, revealing its massive and ugly body with blood-red eyes fixed on Su Ming and his companions.

Running last, Lin Chuyu sensed something was wrong, looked up instinctively, and her expression changed dramatically as she shouted,

"Danger!"

She stretched out her hand and quickly pulled Su Ming and An Ruoxue, speeding up their pace!

At that moment, the massive body of the IV-type Chilami Genomic Variant·Bone Corpse Beast detached from the ceiling, falling straight down and crashing heavily to the floor.

Boom!

With a huge impact, Su Ming and his companions were sent flying.

Su Ming immediately shielded Lu Xi in his arms, rotating his body to hit the ground and protect her from injury as much as possible.

They quickly got up and started running, not forgetting to glance back.

They saw the IV-type Chilami Genomic Variant·Bone Corpse Beast part its mouth, sticking out a crimson tongue to lick its lips. Then, dragging its centipede-like body, it followed them with a ruthless momentum.
