Chapter 1268: Chapter 109: Darkness
Rumble, rumble, rumble…
Suddenly came the sound of thunder, it was dull thunder. In the office, Liu Minghao, who was burying his head in writing a report, was startled by this. He moved to the window with his body and looked up at the strange sky, his face instantly changing slightly.
The door was pushed open with a bang, and Wei Zidao quickly walked in, his face solemn – he was holding a small instrument in his hand, the indicator light on which was constantly flashing red at the moment.
“Brother Hao, look! The Demon Qi Meter… has exceeded the usual amount by hundreds of times! What happened?”
Liu Minghao shook his head, and instinctively looked at the water cup on the desk.
The half-full water cup seemed to be affected by resonance at this moment, and the clear water began to undergo intense molecular movement, stirring up endless small water splashes.
The phone rang… it was a call from Bu Bugao. Wei Zidao hurriedly answered, his face changing slightly after, “Brother Hao, a monster is approaching the Zhong Luochen Company’s building, I’m afraid it’s at least a huge powerful monster level!”
Liu Minghao’s pupils suddenly widened… his next reaction was, “Let’s go! Let’s check it out!”
…
“Wha… what… I don’t know…”
The security guard grabbed by the neck and lifted up, was struggling in pain, the sound squeezing out from his throat was intermittent.
Black Water snorted coldly and directly threw the person away. The security guard’s body was thrown into the security booth, smashing it thoroughly. His head was bleeding, but he also directly fainted.
The thick monster clouds in the sky were descending overwhelmingly at this moment… like monster clouds pressing down on the city!
Black Water’s gaze grew colder, and she walked directly towards the entrance of the building — the glass door at the entrance of the lobby shattered directly before she arrived!
The entire building, more than thirty floors high, almost all the windows, in this instant, the glass exploded directly, countless fragments scattering like stardust… The good news is, it was already late at night, and the regular working employees had already left, the bad news is, several security guards patrolling the building were directly scared out of their wits, someone even stepped into the empty stairwell and rolled down directly.
Rumble, rumble, rumble —!
The building… trembled slightly, like it had encountered an earthquake. And this tremor was directly transmitted into the research institute within the underground level of the building!
“What happened? An earthquake?” Cheng Yun looked in astonishment at the dust shaking off the ceiling, feeling the tremors coming from the floor, “Does this place have earthquakes?”
No one could answer, they just instinctively looked towards room 24 used for experiments — 24 had been inside for some time, much longer than any previous experiment.
“Could it be the commotion caused by the master?” Cheng Yun frowned, then relaxed, his face slightly happy, “Is it going to succeed this time!”
Everyone was delighted… only Chen Er at this moment furrowed his brow deeply, a sense of unease spreading in his heart, making him restless. He hurriedly squeezed his fingers and began to calculate.
It’s just that his skills were not proficient, and this whole journey of divination finger technique was only superficial, he calculated back and forth yet couldn’t find out what was happening, but the feeling of unease in his heart became stronger… With his heart pounding, Chen Er was already panicking to the point of trembling.
He was quite decisive, biting his tongue forcefully, spitting out a mouthful of blood from his tongue tip, and then smeared it on his eyelids using his fingers!
Chen Er opened his eyes again to look towards the crowd, only to see everyone present, each covered with dark clouds over their heads, having a death omen!
He was suddenly shocked, without a word, he shouted out, “Go! There’s danger here! You are all in danger!”
“Master Chen?” Cheng Yun was taken aback… he revered and feared 24, but he respected Chen Er a lot, after all, Chen Er set up several Peach Blossom Formation for him, indeed allowing him to live quite an amorous life.
“I can’t explain too much! You’re all in big trouble! If you don’t want to die, listen to me, leave here immediately!” Chen Er said this without further explanation and dashed for the door to escape.
“What… what’s wrong with him?” A martial arts master frowned, “Acting crazy!”
The martial arts masters didn’t fear Chen Er like they did 24, they just thought Chen Er was a conman, they didn’t know whether he had real skills, at most, the Twelve Route Tan Legion were still passable, but most of them were disdainful in their hearts.
“I’ll go have a look.” Cheng Yun suddenly said, “I’ll have to trouble the masters here to take care one or two.”
Cheng Yun still remembered the benefits of those Peach Blossom Formation set by Chen Er, so he intended to go see Chen Er’s situation and quickly walked out.
The remaining martial arts masters shrugged… they didn’t care what kind of nerves Chen Er had, maybe he just got scared by the sudden shaking.
Chen Er was scared, but they weren’t… The louder the noise, the higher the likelihood of success inside— inside, there lay the power they dreamed of!
But at this moment, countless cracks suddenly appeared on the ceiling above them, and in just a breath, the ceiling directly collapsed, and a figure fell from the cracking place!
Almost at the same moment, the black Big Cocoon in the room sunk silently little by little into the floor… until it completely disappeared below.
…
The concrete mixed with steel beams turned this floor into a mess… many employees working for the research institute were buried under these stones.
Several martial artists, after all those years of physical training, had a strong resistance, they pushed off the heavy objects on them, dusted off the debris, and climbed back up.
The lighting was dim, only the emergency lights were on… In the red light, there appeared a woman in a black dress with black hair, her gaze sharply surveying the surroundings.
Just a glance.
Only one glance, several martial artists’ hearts trembled violently… They secretly thought it was not good, this person was terrifyingly formidable!
“Not here… but entered.”
Only hearing this eerie woman murmuring softly… a few people cautiously responded, not intending to fight this terrifying woman unless absolutely necessary.
So someone stepped forward and tentatively asked, “Miss… what are you planning to do?”
This eerie woman… Black Water cast a casual glance at him, she had already sensed the aura of Little Pig, but at the same time, a strong scent of blood wafted into her nose.
This wasn’t the smell coming from wounds of the crushed victims among the rubble, but an even stronger scent… she frowned, following the source of the blood smell.
It was a few large wooden boxes placed in the corner… Black Water waved her hand, and those boxes shattered instantly, revealing dozens of bloody, horribly mutilated bodies slipping out… The brutality of their deaths made even this genuine monster Black Water feel a wave of nausea.
“What’s the use of these?” Black Water asked coldly.
The martial artists were already in a daze under the terrifying monster’s aura of Black Water, and when she suddenly shouted, it scared them, one of them subconsciously replied, “For an experiment…”
But as soon as he spoke, he regretted it immensely.
“Experiment… Little Pig… not good!” Black Water’s face changed slightly, and when she looked at these martial artists again, the killing intent in her eyes surged, her five fingers spread slightly, the nails grew longer by a few inches, her figure flickered like a ghost in front of everyone!
After the flicker, a drop of blood fell from the nails of Black Water’s five fingers, and she snorted lightly, “Trash.”
The few martial artists at this time began slowly turning their bodies… but in the moment of turning, their carotid arteries burst open, blood spurted out. They widened their eyes, too late to hold the wounds, already with a look of horror, they fell to the ground… dead.
Anxious about the safety of Little Pig, Black Water didn’t check here carefully, following Little Pig’s monster’s aura, she moved swiftly.
As soon as she left, two figures arrived at the scene in the next moment.
With bodies scattered all around… and the injured, Bu Bugao’s face changed dramatically, while Wang Hu’s eyes gleamed as he waved his arm, “It went this way!”
Bu Bugao’s thoughts raced as he said directly, “Wang Hu, go chase it down and stop it from harming humans. I’ll stay here to rescue the injured and wait for the Senior and others to arrive!”
Wang Hu nodded straight away, and his body rushed forward… Bu Bugao’s heart thumped with fear as he looked at the dire situation, the horrific body in the corner made him shiver suddenly, “Damn, did I stumble into the monster’s lab? What exactly did the second young master of Zhong Family do…”
His mind moved, and he suddenly picked up some scattered documents from the ground and looked down at them.
…
Alarm sirens blared madly.
The vibrations of the building also reached the other side of the research area… This sudden alarm caused those dealing with the Little Pig to stop their hands.
As for the other children, they had long been asleep… but the sudden change startled them, causing them to push their doors open in bewilderment.
“What’s happening…”
Zhong Luochen’s face was composed as he looked around at everything… But at this moment, in the observation room, the Little Pig that had quieted down after being fed suddenly started shaking the bell again.
The sound of this bell inexplicably frustrated Zhong Luochen, the rarely agitated second young master said, “Don’t let him shake it! Take the bell away!”
Several researchers panicked, fully in a state of compliance, upon hearing this, they stretched their hands towards the Little Pig to grab the bell.
The Little Pig was just a cub, but its strength was no less than that of a robust adult, and its body was small, and several researchers were unexpectedly unable to suppress it.
This research area was divided into sections for quieter research, but now outside was chaotic, with six or seven children discovered to have minor abilities, dozens of researchers, and over ten guards left to guard, all in chaos outside.
Zhong Luochen picked up the phone, frowning as he dialed Cheng Yun, the moment the number connected, footsteps sounded behind him.
Tap, tap… tap tap.
Zhong Luochen shivered suddenly, turned around in an instant… The phone in his hand slipped out at the sight of the visitor.
“Miss Mo?!”
…
In front of him, Miss Mo was entirely different from what Zhong Luochen remembered… The woman he knew from the pottery studio, serene and natural, like an untouched alpine flower.
She was the most uniquely charismatic woman Zhong Luochen had ever seen, even evoking a soul-stirring feeling in the second young master, who wasn’t particularly fond of women.
He couldn’t forget her, and never thought he’d meet her under such circumstances.
“Miss Mo, how could you be here…” But Zhong Luochen quickly realized Mo Shui was not the same as he knew, her gaze, her appearance… such weird black lips.
Black Water didn’t even glance at Zhong Luochen, nor did she pay attention to his inquiry, but looked at the observation room… Her eyes filled with killing intent!
In the observation room, the Little Pig was pinned down by several researchers, someone held its neck, someone pinned its limbs, while it bit a researcher’s arm.
Totally twisted into chaos… In Black Water’s eyes, it was clear the Little Pig was being bullied by these humans!
“Help me, sister!! Wuwu~~~”
Black Water snorted coldly, and the glass wall of the observation room shattered instantly, several researchers jumped in fright, loosened their arms, and the Little Pig agilely broke free, moving its limbs, and leaping into Black Water’s arms, wailing loudly, “Sister!!! They bully me!! They won’t feed me! And they hit me!! Sister, I’m so scared, Little Pig is so scared, I want to go home! Wuwuwu…”
“Are you his sister?” Zhong Luochen blurted out.
Black Water heard, just coldly glancing at Zhong Luochen, then gently looked at the Little Pig and softly said, “It’s okay, we’ll be home soon, no more crying.”
“They bully me!! And give me injections! Little Pig fears injections the most!”
“Sister will punish them, don’t cry, be good.” Black Water tenderly stroked Little Pig’s head, soothing him.
She exhaled slowly, looked up again at Zhong Luochen… The second young master’s heart jumped fiercely.
“Is this… your place?” Black Water asked abruptly.
Zhong Luochen’s mind raced, but he quickly calmed down, took a deep breath, and said seriously, “Miss Mo, this is indeed my place, but… there must be some misunderstanding here, I didn’t know this child was yours…”
But his words stopped instantly.
At this moment, Zhong Luochen’s pupils dilated, his eyes filled with terror, panic, disbelief… and a hint of pain.
He felt the pain that pierced every nerve ending in his body, spreading instantly from his chest.
Miss Mo Shui’s arm… pierced directly through his chest without any hesitation.
Straightforward, without hesitation.
“Why?”
“No reason.” Black Water looked coldly, “It’s just your place… anyone who harms my child, I’ll kill.”
Her arm pulled out from Zhong Luochen’s chest, then swung, blood instantly leaving her arm, seemingly disdainful.
Zhong Luochen’s gaze began to dim, vision blurred, he simply fell to the ground… in a pool of blood.
…
His consciousness gradually faded… Everything seemed to return to the starting point.
Before complete darkness, he saw the masked Clown boss.
His conversation with him, at a table surrounded by darkness.
——”So what do you plan to keep… there are many things that can bring happiness, but ultimately they can be summed up to a few: love, family, interests, achievements, and peace.”
——”Keep the achievements for me.”
——”Sure? Maybe a better choice will come at the end.”
——”I trust my feelings, no need to talk more.”
Dark.
