Chapter 196: Chapter 170: Uncertain Fate, Failed Attempt to Steal a Chicken_2

Without discussing whether his actions were right or wrong, his mind was not foolish at all.

Rather, it seemed clever.

Moreover, this guy had a relentless streak.

Whether towards others or himself.

When he realized that the situation was irreparable, he openly begged for mercy, but secretly, he was determined to go down together with his foe.

If it weren’t for Zhou Ping’an’s keen sense, which was like the calm before the storm,

able to acutely sense the direction from which danger approached,

he would probably have suffered some damage from that "Centipede gene modifier’s" deathly toxic explosion.

That poisonous fog was extremely corrosive.

Even for someone with a robust body like Zhou Ping’an, it was not something he wanted to endure.

So, the question arises.

Would such a "Playboy," after leaving the base, really leave his rear exposed without any protection?

Not fearing that someone might sneak up from behind?

The answer is no.

He had still prepared various methods and activated defensive measures.

In Zhou Ping’an’s mental induction, at the underground entrance, dozens of incomplete gene-modified beings were gathered, fully prepared and roaming around.

The reason they are called incomplete,

those modified "humans" had already lost human intelligence and almost the appearance of humans too.

Covered in tumors, sprouting long hair, strangely shaped—that was still considered normal.

Some things were simply indescribable; just one glance could make one lose their appetite and feel nauseous enough to vomit.

Before Chen Ziwen left, he released these creatures to ensure his control and prevent anyone from sneaking in secretly.

There were a few monsters that even Zhou Ping’an had to be careful to deal with to ensure his own safety.

It really was too bizarre.

Why not take these gene-modified creatures out to fight?

Zhou Ping’an actually understood.

Because monsters without intelligence are hard to command.

Once released, they would immediately scatter without a trace, killing people at random...

They are only somewhat manageable in a certain controlled environment; to release them is absolutely out of the question.

...

"Damn it, charge through."

Zhao Shiying’s eyes were red at the moment.

He had not expected that an operation, supposed to be completely safe to collect data and secure results, would turn out to be like stirring up a hornet’s nest.

Just upon entering the underground level, three team members immediately fell down dead.

He hadn’t even seen clearly how the enemy attacked.

When he thought of retreating, he discovered that more than ten long-tailed, white-haired, sharp-faced humanoid beasts had surged out behind him.

And they also emitted a piercing, strange howl.

Upon hearing this kind of shrill scream,

everyone felt their limbs weaken and their courage falter, and their actions of firing their guns slowed significantly.

It was precisely in this situation,

that three semi-transparent shadows appeared under the surging ripples of indoor air.

With incredibly fast speed, their pitch-black claws tore through the throats of three team members and then darted back into the darkness.

Additionally, some team members were firing wildly, and in extreme terror, they wounded another team member...

This situation was only because the Special Affairs Team members were all wearing magnetic power exoskeletons, which were extremely difficult to penetrate.

Otherwise, in this wave of attacks, everyone except himself might have been in danger.

"Gather around me, form a stair-like pattern, and fire in sequence,"

Zhao Shiying roared fiercely.

In the rolling sound waves, the surrounding semi-invisible or incredibly fast beasts that confused the mind, halted their forms simultaneously, their attacks abruptly failing.

Clearly, they had been affected by Zhao Shiying’s sonic attack, impairing their brains.

At the same time, fourteen Special Affairs Office team members opened fire simultaneously.

The muzzle emitted a faint purple particle beam.

"Puff puff puff..."

More than ten monsters were shattered on the spot.

As long as they were hit by a single shot, no matter their attributes, they would disintegrate and dissolve into a mist of blood that turned to ashes before even hitting the ground.

...

Zhou Ping’an squinted his eyes, silently sensing the battlefield from below, his eyebrows slightly raised.

He turned to look at the thirty-something team members behind him.

He sighed inwardly.

The equipment his men had was hardly worthy of being called equipment compared to that of the Special Affairs Office.

The others were equipped with cutting-edge experimental gear, already deploying Particle Ripple Guns.

And they had exoskeleton armor.

The ordinary team member’s attack and defensive power, compared to a martial master who had just entered the Energy Refinement Stage in Another World, were not weaker at all.

Of course, that was only for attack and defense, and not for maneuvers and adaptability, where they indeed fell short of a martial master.

But positioned on the right battlefield, they too could exhibit immense strength.

No wonder Zhao Shiying was so bullish, completely unconcerned with their reactions.

The seventeen people he led could sweep through over eighty of Zhou Ping’an and Tang Tang’s men as easily as adults defeating children.

This was the advantage of superior equipment.

Zhou Ping’an even noticed a half-invisible pitch-black monster in the first underground layer, slicing through the air with a sonic boom like a sharp wave cutting through.

Such a formidable creature was immobilized by a fierce shout from Zhao Shiying, and upon being shot, half of its body turned to ash.

It died a graceful death.

...

"Charge!"

Seeing a successful round of attacks, Zhao Shiying’s eyes flashed coldly as he roared and charged into the second layer.

The rest of the team members followed in a single file formation, snaking behind...

Wave after wave of azure beams fell like rain, weaving a dense torrent of light towards their front and sides.

The monsters blocking their way were instantly swept away.

"Such reckless charging is not advisable."

Zhou Ping’an laughed softly.

Through his mental induction, in front of Zhao Shiying’s charge,

a centipede monster as thick as a barrel suddenly began writhing wildly.

"Snap..."

like a silver bottle bursting.

Innumerable green and earthy yellow smoke clouds surged like raging waves towards Zhao Shiying and his team.

"Damn..."

Zhao Shiying screamed in agony.

A faint green glow appeared in front of him, blocking the wave of smoke for a moment, but half his left hand had already melted into pus.

His body recoiled like flying, touching down a few times to grab a curvaceous team member and sweeping her towards the ground exit.

Just stepping out of the first underground layer, he looked back and saw with a clatter, many of his team members collapsed to the ground.

Large pools of green fluid flowed out, corroding the steel ground into numerous large pits.

"Quick, take me back, find the director for treatment."

Zhao Shiying was tough indeed.

With his right hand, he drew a short dagger from his waist, severing his left arm at the elbow. A green light surged at his brow, firmly suppressing the dark qi and moving towards his left arm...

His body then softened, becoming dizzy and groggy.

"Captain."

The woman he saved cried out with a sob, wiping tears aggressively and glaring fiercely at Zhou Ping’an and the others present.

Without turning back, she carried Zhao Shiying and hurriedly left in the vehicle.

...

Asking for Monthly Passes.
