The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife
Chapter 262 - 262 262 HST Project

262: Chapter 262 HST Project 262: Chapter 262 HST Project Zhao Rou had just finished speaking to Secretary Lin and left alone.

Ye Shikai wanted to capture Zhao Rou immediately to question her about the potion, but considering the imminent massacre in the laboratory behind him, he clenched his teeth and had to give up.

He decided to save the people first and then settle accounts with Zhao Rou afterward.

Secretary Lin took out a mobile phone from his pocket, dialed a number, and was about to speak when Ye Shikai knocked him out from behind with a chop of his hand.

Ye Shikai took off the Netherworld King’s Helmet and swiftly burst into the laboratory.

“Who the hell is this guy, and how did he get in?” Everyone was shocked, especially since Ye Shikai was not wearing a hazmat suit.

However, he was protected by an Energy Shield, which isolated him from chemical gases.

“Is this guy suicidal, not wearing a hazmat suit?” another person chimed in.

Ye Shikai found the man he was looking for earlier and grabbed his hand, urgently saying, “Dr.

Li, I need you and everyone here to leave with me immediately.”

As soon as Ye Shikai finished speaking, the room erupted into noisy discussions and chaos.

“This guy is crazy, coming in here without a hazmat suit.

Where’s the security?

Get him out!”

“He even wants us to leave, he must be insane.”

…

“Young man, how do you know me, and how come you’re not wearing a…”

“Cut the chatter.

Just go.” Ye Shikai used his Inner Strength and shouted loudly, his voice booming louder than a loudspeaker, startling everyone.

“Dr.

Li, someone will come to silence you very soon.

If you don’t want to die, follow me now!” Ye Shikai shouted at Dr.

Li.

“Okay…

okay, let’s go this way.” Dr.

Li numbly nodded, still confused about the situation but pointed towards the emergency exit.

Under Ye Shikai’s orders, people reluctantly and confusedly made their way to the emergency exit.

“Look, so many people!” Suddenly, a female researcher shouted, pointing at corridors on both sides above the lab as dozens of armed personnel with automatic rifles rushed in.

The crowd looked up in confusion at the armed personnel above, and Dr.

Li felt an ominous premonition.

“Aim, fire.” Suddenly, those armed personnel aimed their dark muzzles below and opened fire without hesitation.

“Bang, bang, bang.” Dozens of people quickly laid down crossfire, leaving everyone below stunned for a moment, with only gunfire, screams, and moans echoing around.

“Run!” Ye Shikai yelled as the gunfire erupted, and several people immediately fell into a pool of blood, riddled with bullets.

Everyone frantically pushed towards the emergency exit.

Ye Shikai spread his arms, releasing a massive Energy Shield to block the incoming bullets.

“RPG!” Ye Shikai shouted as rocket grenades were fired from above.

He quickly channeled his Inner Strength and forcefully stopped the rockets in mid-air, cursing Zhao Rou’s cruelty for using such heavy weaponry.

“Return fire!” Ye Shikai forcefully threw his arm out, sending a massive blast of energy that hurled the rocket back.

“Ah!” A loud boom followed, and several armed personnel fell from above, giving them a taste of their own medicine.

Ye Shikai was not in the mood to celebrate; he had to make sure everyone got into the emergency exit.

Suddenly, Ye Shikai heard the sound of metal objects rolling on the ground.

Looking down, he saw several grenades.

Cursing under his breath, he pulled the last person into the emergency exit and immediately locked the door behind them.

“Boom.” The grenades exploded, sending a massive blast that knocked people inside against the door.

Ye Shikai helped the injured up, with no time to feel relieved after the narrow escape.

“Keep running, don’t stop,” Ye Shikai shouted loudly, and everyone ran like professional athletes, driven by their survival instincts.

Everyone ducked into a safety room ahead.

As Ye Shikai entered, Dr.

Li quickly swiped a card on the monitor, and the metal door slowly closed.

“Thank you, young man.” Everyone was still in shock, crouching on the floor and gasping for air, some women even crying.

Dr.

Li, gradually regaining his composure, grabbed Ye Shikai’s hand, grateful that if not for him, they would have all been killed.

“Dr.

Li, you must tell me, what exactly is the HST experiment?” Ye Shikai asked urgently.

Dr.

Li looked around at his colleagues, still shaken, some even wounded and in critical condition, sighed deeply, and nodded.

“I am Li Hua, a renowned biologist from Huaxia.

These are my students and team members.

Our main project was studying the combination of multiple genes.

Recently, I was invited by Zhao Rou, chairman of Chengyang Group, to work on a project here.

They offered a generous package, and my team was facing…

financial difficulties, so I…” Li Hua’s voice choked up.

“I and my team came here to work, only to find out that their project was to combine moth and human genes, which is clearly prohibited.

I confronted them about it, and then…”

“And then what?” Ye Shikai asked gently.

“And then they…

murdered my assistant right in front of me.” Li Hua broke down crying.

“They also coerced my team to work under house arrest, instructing me to keep my assistant’s death a secret.

I initially thought that, at this point, we might as well work for them, or else my whole team would suffer a terrible fate.”

“I didn’t expect the experiment to succeed, and they…

those beasts…” Li Hua wept bitterly.

Ye Shikai also despised these people, regretting not arresting Zhao Rou earlier for researching such vile things and committing murders.

“Young man, you must be with the police; I plead with you to protect my students.” Unexpectedly, Li Hua knelt before Ye Shikai.

“It’s all my fault; I brought them into this den of wolves.

Please ensure they get out safely.” Li Hua’s voice was nearly pleading, and the others began to cry as well.

Ye Shikai’s nose tingled, and he grasped Li Hua by the arm.

“Dr.

Li, don’t worry.

I will ensure your safety,” Ye Shikai nodded firmly.
