Chapter 875: Crystal Machine Gun |
“Him?”
At the entrance to God Hall, Tong Hu held an illuminated metal rod and looked at the teen that a woman was holding up.
The woman nodded, “Lu Lan.”
Mo Ye, Sheng Yuan, Tong Hu, and Little Li’s gazes changed.
How did someone who should be dead come back alive?
In the competition death wheel, apart from those from Cloud Peak, only Doctor He paid a price before escaping. The others died, including Lu Lan. Without a Cloud Peak spy infiltrating God Hall, they wouldn't have found out.
After asking Ye Zhongming, Xia Lei and Liu Zhenghong discussed it. They felt like this person had a piece of equipment that could revive him. Either that or he had a special job or bloodline. There was another possibility, which was that God Hall was testing on him.
If it were the first two types, it wouldn’t be terrifying. Be it equipment or a job, this revival technique wouldn’t be unlimited and would have a limit. But if it was the third type, then this technique was something that even Liu Zhenghong didn’t have.
Two words: worth money!
Xia Lei’s sneak attack on God Hall was because she was interested in their bio-tech skills. Although Liu Zhenghong was an expert in the field, her research focused on human genes. God Hall was amazing at modifying and nurturing mutated lifeforms. Cloud Peak envied those high-level mutated lifeforms. So Xia Lei was interested in them and prepared to launch this sneak attack.
Apart from that, the researchers and equipment here were targets.
Lu Lan was the third point.
No matter which era you were in, eternal life was a target. It was the same even in modern times. The proliferation of science and medicine told people that it was impossible, so people stopped trying to attain it.
But did people forget about it? No! In many hearts, people looked forward to it.
Humans were evolving in the apocalypse, and they showed humans another way to fulfill this wish. They definitely wouldn’t give up on this opportunity.
Xia Lei didn’t want eternal life; she didn’t chase that. But the attraction of reviving from death was bigger. That gave one many lives and made one unkillable.
So, after learning that Lu Lan had revived, she marked this person as someone she had to steal.
After greeting Mo Ye, she brought Lu Lan out of God Hall and disappeared from the night.
The few Cloud Peak core members were silent, and no one said a thing.
Even if Xia Lei didn’t reveal anything, they sensed that Cloud Peak had an unknown force, which had become of huge use.
Of course, no one would think that that force was against them. This Flame Tiger Operation told them that this organization focused on external parties. But it was still a blade over all their heads to remind them not to betray Cloud Peak.
Although they were uncomfortable, they weren’t unhappy. They understood that kindness while keeping people on track was the right way to stabilize an organization. Ye Zhongming gave them too much kindness, but not everyone knew how to repay it. Problems would arise. So, with such an organization hanging over their heads, it might be a good thing.
Be it Mo Ye, Shengyuan, or Tong Hu, they were firm supporters of Ye Zhongming. They only thought about this matter slightly before ignoring it.
This mysterious force would only benefit them if they didn’t think about betrayal.
God Hall’s base was now filled with killing shouts, and one could hear the sounds of energy explosions.
Red Hair led her zombie army to reduce Cloud Peak losses.
Only Cloud Peak could use such a method. Until now, God Hall didn’t understand whether they were being attacked by another faction or zombies.
“It is nearly done; let’s go. Shengyuan lead people to follow Red Hair’s team. When needed, help them clean up. These zombies aren’t too reliable.” Mo Ye started to split the roles.
“Tong Hu, lead your people and those suicide gene lifeforms to God Hall’s beast garden. It is best if you can control it; if not, just blow it up.”
Tong Hu nodded and led people away. Shengyuan set off, too.
Only Mo Ye and her squad were around her. Their target was God Hall’s lab!
That was the end goal of this trip.
However, compared to Little Tiger’s mission in the Glory Army, Mo Ye expected God Hall to be stubborn. Before she found the lab, news broke that Tong Hu and Shengyuan were in danger.
When Tong Hu went to the beast garden, they didn’t know how many high-level beasts there were. Although they might have been in slumber, they might have been activated after God Hall was attacked. It was understandable for them to be attacked.
But Shengyuan went with the zombies. Red Hair was nearly a level eight lifeform. That brainchild was already level seven; the lowest-level zombie was level four. They couldn’t stop God Hall? God Hall shouldn’t be that strong.
Mo Ye realized the problem and told someone to lead the Liao Brothers and a hundred others to assist Tong Hu. She led the rest to help Shengyuan.
Once she arrived, she understood why.
Red Hair and her zombie army were gone!
They weren’t killed, but when they attacked, they got split.
Mo Ye didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. They split up because… God Hall was too big, and there were many split roads. They charged and fought and ended up splitting. When Shengyuan caught up, God Hall warriors with their mutated lifeforms appeared and faced off with Sheengyuan.
Although Shengyuan’s team grew bigger, there were only around a thousand. Facing over two thousand God Hall members, each with a beast, this wiped out their equipment and level advantage. They ended up being suppressed. After half an hour, Shengyuan had to ask for help.
In that short while, his team suffered ⅕ of casualties.
There were 800 warriors, but the battle wasn’t calculated like that. As the number of people reduced, it would cause a chain reaction. The formation would collapse, and the power difference would increase, resulting in soaring casualties.
