The First Evolution

Chapter 326: Crisis

In just a few seconds, the entire head of the tall and mighty Purger was completely ruined like a a mass of melted wax!

Just at this time, Fang Linyan had already pounced out, shot 3 high-explosive grenades in his pocket into the wound on the back of K-2 Synthetic Beast, and ran a few steps before lying down.

There was an earth-shattering noise behind its back. Fang Linyan felt warm blood rain falling from the sky, pattering all over his back. All he could smell was a strong smell of blood.

Suffering such a severe injury, K-2 Synthetic Beast howled in pain and miserably. Its arms suddenly exerted force, tearing the tyrannical Purger in half. The scene was extremely bloody!

Then, K-2 Synthetic Beast instinctively used its right paw to cover the wound on its back, and its body twitched violently.

Those who could still fight at this time were all experienced in many battles. How did they not know the weakness of the monster? Their morale was boosted. Knowing that this was the chance of surviving, they shot at its wounds wildly everywhere. Even the 2 researchers picked up the weapons and fired wildly.

The monster stood up staggeringly, covered its head and face with its huge arms, and rushed toward Fang Linyan who dealt the most damage, but its footsteps were already very light.

Now, everyone learned to disperse around. Another researcher seized this opportunity and launched another incendiary grenade into the wound on its back.

Immediately, it turned around and attacked frantically, but just as it turned around, Goat cast another [Large Fireball] to the wound on its back…….

This guy’s weakness was too obvious at this time, and it still seemed to be in a state of energy exhaustion. Under the joint attack of everyone, it quickly weakened. Finally, it was completely burned into a ball of black charcoal mixed with metal plates.

After it was killed, Fang Linyan and Goat also hoped that something could drop, but the prompt came ruthlessly:

“K-2 Synthetic Beast is in a weakened state and the total damage dealt by the contractors did not exceed 30%, so the loot cannot be obtained.”

What else could Fang Linyan say about this? He could only blame that the Space was too harsh. It didn’t even give him the chance to take advantage of it.

***

After killing the monster, Fang Linyan stepped forward, trying to find the chip needed for his main mission.

In the end, after enduring the disgusting smell and searching for a long time in the meat sauce and steel bones, he found nothing! But the arrow on the retinas still pointed here.

In the end, just when Fang Linyan was almost desperate, he saw a key in the crack of the console next to him. It should have been dropped by someone when he left in a panic.

Out of curiosity, Fang Linyan picked it up, then he was surprised to find that the moment his fingers touched the key, the arrow on his retinas disappeared and a prompt appeared:

“Contestant ZB419, congratulations on getting an important item: The Forgotten Key.”

Only then did Fang Linyan realize that what the arrow on the retinas marked was not the mysterious chip he was looking for at all, but just an important item.

He originally thought that the mission would end here, but now it seemed that he had to stay in this damn place to continue solving the mysteries. This news was really depressing.

About 20 minutes later, the closed steel gate was slowly opened by the companions who heard the news and rushed to support.

After suffering heavy casualties, they did not dare to wander around anymore, because the data they obtained was already very rich. It would be quite good to be able to bring it back.

Lanket, who was busy in another laboratory, came here after hearing the news. He found a fairly complete console, then he successfully copied the data in it. After copying for a while, his face suddenly became very shocked. He beckoned to Fang Linyan,

“I think you need to see this.”

At this time, Fang Linyan seemed to be lost in his thoughts. In fact, he was thinking about how to complete the hidden main mission. When he saw Lanket taking the initiative to greet him, he walked over in surprise and said,

“What’s the matter?”

Lanket pressed a few times on his laptop, and a video started playing immediately. Fang Linyan took a deep breath when he saw it.

In this video, the K-2 Synthetic Beast they encountered before appeared again, but it should be in a complete form. This guy not only had a completely different spirit, but it also had a scary giant eye on its right shoulder.

This thing could actually release an extremely powerful heat beam. In the simulated battle, even an armored vehicle was directly blasted by a heat beam. It looked like Cyclops in the X-Men.

Not only that, this giant eye also seemed to have the ability to change gravity. It could make the aircraft in the sky crash!!

Seeing this, Fang Linyan couldn’t help but say,

“Could it be that when this monster was originally designed, it actually took the route of long-range attack…”

Thinking of this, the people around including Goat were shocked. They broke into cold sweat. It was so difficult to besiege such a monster that seemed to be good at long-range attacks. If it was a melee type, how terrifying would it be?

At this moment, Lanket tapped on the keyboard a few more times and hit Enter hard, then he searched on the wall beside and pulled down a switch.

Immediately, a wall beside slowly retracted toward the inside, then, amidst the rumbling and obscure metal collision sound, a huge transparent cabinet slowly slid out. It contained a very strange armor!

The height of this armor was even about 4 meters. It was hung on the shelf inside the cabinet. Its material should be made of metal. It was shining with a faint blue color. If one looked closely, there were blood-colored patterns around the armor. Among them, the most obvious feature was the huge shield on the right shoulder.

Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan’s pupils suddenly constricted. He said in disbelief,

“Isn’t this the battle armor prepared for this monster!”

Lanket nodded and said,

“Yes, we are lucky to survive. According to the data, it is a prototype subject that has not been transformed. Because it has been sealed here for several years, its stamina was in a state of exhaustion. Even the evil eye on the shoulder that was in the latent period couldn’t be activated at all.”

“And the armor it wears in the cultivation tank is only used to restrain the brutal growth of its body so that its body can reserve space for wearing combat armor when it is completed… “

“So, if this monster is a fully developed body, we won’t be able to kill it. If this guy can wear this battle armor tailored for it, then it will be very difficult for us to break through its defense.”

When Fang Linyan saw Lanket talking, he was full of energy. His eyes sparkled with excitement. He knew that this armor should be quite valuable, which was enough for him to be directly promoted this time. Fang Linyan didn’t say much even though he knew this.

After a tough battle, Fang Linyan only found one key clue about his mission while Goat got nothing. This was undoubtedly frustrating for him.

Now that Purger was completely dead, they had lost the meat shield. The rest of the guards and researchers lacked a sense of security and were unwilling to continue exploring. Fang Linyan couldn’t really force them to continue exploring.

However, Goat’s expression changed suddenly, then he whispered to Fang Linyan,

“Someone came in from outside. My controller showed that the several mutated rattlesnakes placed at the switch that activates the elevator have all been killed!”

“Although I don’t know the specific situation, the controller can receive the life signal of the mutated rattlesnake. Once the life signal disappears, it will vibrate once. The controller vibrated 3 times in a row, and the interval between each vibration was no more than 3 seconds.”

Fang Linyan was startled,

“Damn it!”

He knew very well what Goat meant. The 3 mutated rattlesnakes were killed almost at the same time!

This mutated rattlesnake was not a weak subject. It was more than 3 meters long, could spit venom, and could strangle an elephant. Its movement was agile that it could jump up to a 5 meters tall cliff.

Its vitality was so tenacious that even if its head was cut off, the snake head still had the ability to spit poison and bite people after 3 hours.

Such 3 mutated rattlesnakes were killed in just a few seconds. Such an overwhelming force was easy to deal with them!

The identities of this group of uninvited guests who came here should not be the Fincher Company — No matter how blind they were, they would recognize their own company’s biochemical weapons.

Then there was a small probability that it was the Duckland Company, and the greatest possibility was the people of the Gumball Company.

Unexpectedly, after the Duckland Company and Fincher Company fought, the Gumball Company had all the advantage now.

Fang Linyan was really responsible for most of this. Without his shameless deal with Goat, could the 2 companies have fought?

Therefore, Fang Linyan immediately called everyone together and told them the news.

After hearing this, Lanket was shocked and said,

“What’s going on, how did those people pass through that strange mechanism?”

Since Fang Linyan could use [Reconnaissance] to find a way to open the door, then other contractors could, but it was not convenient to tell them about this. So, he could only say,

“Since I can find a way to open the door, others can. Don’t think so much, let’s go now.”
