"Brother, stop hiding. I know you're still here. Come out so we can have a good chat," Anlius called out into the empty basement, his voice echoing in the confined space until it reached Ye Wumeng's ears.
Come out and chat? You want to bare your soul to me, huh? Ye Wumeng scoffed internally, firmly deciding not to reveal himself. The guy standing next to him had significant combat power; it was better to stay hidden and wait for an opportunity to escape and contact Xu Duan.
Seeing that there was no response, Anlius's expression darkened slightly. He turned to the shadow beside him and said in a low voice, "Find him."
Upon receiving the order, the shadow nodded and began to search carefully for Ye Wumeng's traces.
Ye Wumeng frowned at this development. At this rate, he would eventually be found. His mind raced as he glanced up at the blood-dripping, mangled corpses above him, making a firm decision. He would try going up.
He moved stealthily, gently climbing over the large tanks filled with some liquid, slowly making his way upward.
Suddenly, sensing something, the shadow paused and began scanning the surroundings as if it had picked up on Ye Wumeng's presence. Ye Wumeng froze in place, hanging in the middle of the tank, slowing his breath.
At that moment, the brother Hu Xu, submerged in an unknown liquid before him, suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared directly at Ye Wumeng.
Ye Wumeng was startled by this unexpected sight, nearly losing his composure but managing to hold back just in time. He blinked and pressed his face against the glass, trying to discern what was inside through the system's description.
However, it seemed the system couldn't see through the glass.
Seeing Ye Wumeng's handsome face pressed against the glass frightened Hu Xu immensely. Floating in the liquid, he flailed his arms wildly and silently shouted at Ye Wumeng.
"Don't move! Don't attract that guy over here!" Ye Wumeng cursed inwardly, gritting his teeth as he continued his ascent.
Noticing that Ye Wumeng ignored him, the person inside the tank grew even more agitated and punched the glass in front of him.
Bang!
It wasn't a loud sound, but the shadow caught it immediately. It turned around and rushed toward Ye Wumeng's tank.
Realizing he had no time to waste, Ye Wumeng scrambled up quickly while keeping an eye on the shadow's approach. He began calculating his next move.
Since there was no way to escape, he decided to strike first!
"Hahaha! Brother, I've found you! Why are you hiding? Come out early so you won't suffer," Anlius exclaimed excitedly as he watched the rushing shadow with great confidence.
The power of an Evolver—if it weren't for excessive stimulation from drugs that had unleashed their potential, they could probably be even stronger!
Holding his breath, he knew this opportunity was fleeting! He pulled out a Mark III; initially intending to use a High Penetration Rocket Projectile but realizing that firing one would likely collapse this basement on top of himself.
However, the Mark III was no slouch either; after all, this gun excelled at penetration!
The shadow raced forward and was almost at the tank when Anlius seized his chance!
Bang!
The deafening gunshot echoed throughout the basement as a Mark III round shot straight into the shadow's head, leaving a gaping hole that exited through its skull and lodged into the ground behind it!
The shot hit its mark!
Ye Wumeng's heart soared with joy, but as he looked again, a chill ran down his spine. Why hadn’t the shadow fallen yet? He watched in disbelief as the flesh around the wound on its forehead began to twitch and heal, as if it were regenerating!
It survived a headshot?
Isn’t anyone going to do something about this?
Ye Wumeng narrowed his eyes. He certainly couldn’t allow the enemy to stand there and recover. Raising his Mark III, he unleashed a barrage of fire.
Rat-a-tat-tat!
The Mark III was known as a hand cannon by Deng Sanqi, and that title was well-deserved due to its magazine capacity and firing rate! The Mark III unleashed a relentless stream of bullets for an entire second. Ye Wumeng thought that even a steel plate would be turned into a sieve under such firepower.
Indeed, as he looked at the shadow, he saw numerous bullet holes appearing on its body, with pools of crimson blood pooling beneath it. But why wouldn’t it fall?
Ye Wumeng swallowed hard and unhesitatingly downed a leg enhancement potion before charging toward Anlius’s position. If that was the case, he would capture the leader first!
Seeing this, Anlius smiled slightly, activating his Mechanical Glove with excitement and issuing commands.
Open the containment chamber!
After giving the order, the indicator lights above the large tanks containing Hu Xu’s brothers began to flash red, and the mysterious liquid inside started to slowly drain.
What?
Ye Wumeng froze for a moment, a bad feeling creeping into his mind. He aimed the Mark III directly at Anlius and fired!
Rat-a-tat-tat!
The Mark III fired like a storm toward Anlius’s direction. In response, Anlius ducked behind the nearest tank, his face twitching slightly.
This kid is unpredictable!
The bullets struck the tank with metallic clinks, getting lodged in place.
Clang! Clang!
The liquid from those tanks began to pour out, blocking their glass tops as whatever was inside finally emerged. Ye Wumeng also caught sight of their system description.
【Cellular Artificial Half-Dead: A Half-Dead artificially created through cellular proliferation technology, completely obedient to its cellular progenitor. Due to Shihua's influence, its physical quality is enhanced; however, it has a short lifespan and can survive for only one month without nutrient support.】
Half-Dead!
There was no need to think hard about whose cells were used to create these creatures!
A moment of silence for Hu Xu.
Ye Wumeng narrowed his eyes. He was still about a meter away from Anlius; if he could just reach him, he would be safe. But now it seemed far from easy.
Forced to halt just before plunging into the embrace of the Half-Dead, Ye Wumeng switched out his magazine and began another round of shooting.
Rat-a-tat-tat.
Bullets pierced through the bodies of these Half-Dead with impressive effect, but they appeared endless. Ye Wumeng's ammunition was limited.
No! This can’t go on!
He looked towards Anlius, his heart filled with determination. Without hesitation, he cleared a path with the Mark III in his hand and charged towards Anlius.
Almost there, just a little more!
Anlius hid behind a barrel, watching Ye Wumeng approach slowly. His jaw clenched tightly, his face twisted with resentment as he glared at him.
How could he carry so many bullets?
Could he have undergone Evolution?
Impossible!
Finally, just as he closed the distance, he ran out of Mark IIIs purchased from the warehouse. The crowd surged around him; the number of Half-Dead showed no signs of diminishing as they surrounded Ye Wumeng from all sides, blocking his escape.
He put the Mark III back in the warehouse and pulled out a Small Sphere, tossing it at his feet.
A Deconstruction Bomb!
This was another weapon he had bought from Deng Sanqi to deal with the Undead, and he never expected to use it here.
Colored smoke spread out, and the Half-Dead noticeably slowed their pace. Some even began to disintegrate, their outer skin peeling away and turning into dust that vanished into the air.
It works!
He took out several more and threw them forward repeatedly, creating a smoke screen for his escape.
Then he drew his weapon and cut down those Half-Dead obstructing him in the smoke.
Using the opening, he rushed right up to Anlius, raising his weapon high.
But Anlius didn’t seem panicked; instead, he looked at Ye Wumeng with a victorious smile on his face.
Wait, something's not right!
Feeling an impending danger, Ye Wumeng instinctively twisted his body, but still felt a tremendous force slam into him, sending him flying.
Bang!
He landed on the ground like a sandbag, blood spilling from his mouth. Reluctantly, he lifted his head to see where he had just been standing.
Hu Xu! How is he here?!
