Shan Ming brought Shen Changze to the entrance of the underground laboratory. The entrance was a round door with a two metres diameter.. It was made of an unknown metal and it was very bright.
Shen Changze said, “How do we get in?”
The car that Shan Ming chose by accident happened to be the one with the most equipment. So he brought a whole military package of various advanced weapons. He rummaged through the bag and found a small-scale blasting device. He pressed it on the door. The two of them found cover and heard a loud bang. A huge blast exploded from the heavily coded locked door causing a big hole.
With Shen Changze in the front and Shan Ming in the back, the two of them cautiously entered the laboratory with their machine guns in hand.
The smoke dissipated and a row of stairs leading directly to the ground appeared in front of them. The two of them walked down the stairs until a long corridor appeared in front of them. They were a little surprised. They didn’t expect that the ground had been hollowed out and the area was so large.
The two of them moved forward to get a little bit closer to the base of the wall. Suddenly, a cold voice could be heard from the speaker above their heads, “How dare you come in here? You have destroyed so many of my laboratories. Don’t think you can go out easily.”
Shen Changze found the camera and flashed his middle finger to it.
Tang Jingzhi smiled, “Let me show you the power of Dragon Blood Man.”
There was a harsh noise and the surroundings returned to quietness.
After a while, they heard strange noises from the other end of the corridor. It is the sound of people running and… animal roaring.
The two turned their heads together and saw a group of jackals suddenly appearing at the corner of the wide corridor. They were much larger than ordinary jackals. They were strong, with green eyes, and they looked very hungry. They immediately started to pounce.
The two of them raised their machine guns to sweep bullets at them desperately. The jackals howled and fell to the ground. There was blood spattered everywhere and the snow-white walls were covered with shocking bright red.
They didn’t expect that there would be so many jackals here. There were at least a hundred of them. All of them came like hungry wild animals, stepping on the dead bodies of their companions and rushing towards them. The bullets were emptied quickly and there was no time for them to reload the bullets.
Shen Changze yelled: “Baba, back off!” He slapped a jackal to death with one of his clawed hands. With a sweep of his tail, the two jackals that were trying to jump over him to rush towards Shan Ming were swept away.
Shan Ming threw away the machine gun and replaced it with a rifle. He retreated to a safe distance enough for him to react and defend. He hid behind Shen Changze to snipe.
Shen Changze turned into a ray of golden light. Facing this group of wild animals, he firmly guarded the way, preventing them from passing by him.
Shan Ming’s face was covered with sweat and his clothes were torn through. He had never experienced such a battle before. The two of them faced dozens of jackals injected with dragon’s blood stimulants. It was simply too crazy.
Shen Changze’s eyes were red. He no longer cared about using the various fighting skills he had learned in the past ten years. But he was acting like a real wild beast now. He was tearing, biting, grabbing,hitting, and facing these wild animals like a wild beast .
Some people have said that war is conducted in order to restore humanity from their animal instinct.
But when the threat of death is approaching, the will to survive will bring out the human instinct to the extreme. Let alone for Shen Changze, who can no longer be regarded as a human being.
The two-metre-wide corridor has turned into a slaughterhouse, with countless carcasses of jackals lying on the ground. The flesh, internal organs, brains, and blood have stained the entire floor and walls. The smell of blood makes people almost breathless and disgusted.
Shen Changze’s dazzling golden scales were covered with blood. He was already soaked in blood. He was like a monster from hell. He killed these dozens of crazy jackals in a daze and didn’t allow any of them to jump over him and get in front of Shan Ming.
In Shan Ming’s heart, besides the shock, there is also an irrepressible pride of this son he picked up.
This is his son. It’s so fucking exciting!
Shen Changze walked to him panting as he picked up the gun on the ground. He looked straight at Shan Ming with red eyes and asked, “Baba, are you okay?”
Shan Ming wiped off the blood on his eyelashes with his sleeve, “I’m fine. It’s not the time to rest just yet.” After speaking, he dragged him through the corridor full of jackal corpses and walked deeper inside.
An open hall appeared in front of them, with an area of more than a thousand square metres. In the centre of the hall was a console surrounded by eight transparent laboratories. Four of them had someone lying in them. Or it should be precisely said that they had Dragon Blood people lying in them.
The appearance of these Dragon Blood people is very similar to that of Shen Changze, except that the wings are very small and the colours of the scales are mainly either black, grey, or dark blue. None of them are light-coloured. Even so, seeing four Dragon Blood people at the same time was enough to cause anxiety for Shan Ming.
They also quickly saw Tang Jingzhi.
Tang Jingzhi, Tang Tingzhi, several scientific researchers, and a group of bodyguards stood in a large suspended control room. Except for the floor, the walls of the control room were completely transparent and it was isolated.
What surprised Shan Ming the most was that he saw Nesis behind the glass cover.
When Nesis saw Shan Ming, his eyes were somewhat fearful and somewhat gloating. He even waved his hand to Shan Ming with a smile.
Shan Ming raised his gun and shot at the glass cover, leaving only a small bullet mark on the glass cover. It seems that the people inside must be full of a sense of security.
Tang Jingzhi’s expression was grim, “These Dragon Blood people are still in a very unstable state. So, it’s not suitable for them to wake up. But the laboratory I worked so hard to build was almost destroyed by you. So I wish to have your corpses as compensation.” He pressed the button in his hand and said coldly, “They have been hungry for a long time. And they like meat the most.”
The doors of the four transparent laboratories suddenly opened and the red lights of the instruments beside the four Dragon Blood men suddenly lit up. Transparent liquid was injected into their bodies at a speed visible to the naked eye and they all opened their eyes immediately.
They jumped off the bed and howled vigorously. Their eyes were bloodshot and they seemed to have no human consciousness at all.
They ran out of the laboratory one by one and looked at both Shen Changze and Shan Ming. They grinned, showing their sharp teeth in demonstration.
Back then in Yunnan, the scattered scene of more than 20 members of ‘Peregrine Falcon’ faced with the killing power of a Dragon Blood Man appeared in front of Shan Ming again. In order to protect the remaining few people, Lin Qiang jumped onto the dragon blood man with the explosives in his arms and was blown into pieces together with the monster. The fear, despair and great grief of the past are all awakened at this moment.
Those four tall and ferocious Dragon Blood men approached them step by step. Shan Ming seemed to be able to smell the smell of death in the air.
Shen Changze opened his mouth and roared fiercely. He bared his teeth and roared threateningly at them.
The four Dragon Blood men stopped in their tracks. A trace of fear flashed before their completely inhuman eyes. Perhaps it was Shen Changze’s pure blood’s intimidating power that the four could feel Shen Changze’s strength and instinctively took a few steps back.
Shen Changze continued to roar at them. When he took a step forward, the four Dragon Blood men took a step back, not daring to move forward at all.
Tang Jingzhi scolded: “It’s really useless. Turn on gas No. 3.”
His assistant said tremblingly: “Gas No. 3 is too dangerous. What if they go too far and collapse this whole place?”
“Just do it!” Tang Jingzhi walked to the main control room by himself, manipulating the keyboard with the crackling of his fingers.
Shan Ming and Shen Changze were very nervous about the ‘Gas No. 3’ he had spoken about. They turned around and wanted to retreat to the corridor.
Tang Jingzhi said coldly: “It’s useless. Unless you can reach the ground within 3 seconds, it will be the same no matter where you go.”
They couldn’t afford three seconds. Even if they did, the ground was far from enough to get to. Soon, the vent holes on the wall released a white mist, which was visible to the naked eye but had no smell to them.
The two covered their mouths and noses.
Tang Jingzhi’s cold voice sounded again, “Gas No. 3 is only effective for Dragon Blood people.”
Shan Ming couldn’t hold his breath anymore so he simply let go of his hand and took a breath. As expected, he didn’t feel anything. He didn’t feel any single discomfort. But it was a different case for Shen Changze. After inhaling the air, his body began to tremble continuously. Like the other Dragon Blood men, his body trembled violently.
Tang Tingzhi suddenly rushed to the microphone and shouted: “Shan Ming! Find a place to hide! Don’t let them see you…”
Before he finished speaking, he was pushed to the ground by the bodyguards.
Shan Ming soon understood what Tang Tingzhi meant.
The four Dragon Blood men who were originally afraid of Shen Changze suddenly became extremely excited. Their fear disappeared without a trace. They roared angrily and rushed towards Shen Changze and Shan Ming respectively.
