Chapter 3498: RescueEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Ernst suddenly thought of something, and his expression changed drastically. "No, don’t, Fang Heng..."

"Bang!"

Ernst’s right arm exploded, instantly shattering into a mass of blood and flesh. Blood continuously poured out from the wound in his shoulder.

"Ah!"

Ernst let out a miserable scream. The intense pain made him unable to stand steadily, and he collapsed onto the ground. He shouted incoherently under the agony, his face frighteningly pale as large beads of sweat rolled down his cheeks.

"Let’s go. Take me to Gu Qingzhu. Of course, if you still want to play around, I can keep you company for a while longer."

Fang Heng shrugged, stepped forward, and walked toward the rear gate.

Dormer’s face was pale as he supported Ernst, who had lost an arm and looked ashen. He helped him up and followed behind.

This time, Ernst was truly terrified. Trembling, he walked forward with Dormer’s support.

A lost arm could be regenerated through special biological technology or replaced through mechanical technology, but with current technology, any replacement would definitely not be as good as the original.

...

Federation secret research room, upper-level detention zone.

Gu Qingzhu and the other Demi-Human Tribe members were each confined separately in individual rooms.

Guards stood watch in front of every laboratory door around the clock.

Gu Qingzhu felt some regret.

She had acted impulsively.

Ever since discovering information about the Demi-Human Tribe experimental base, she and a group of her subordinates had been trying to infiltrate it.

The outbreak of the Hell Rift incident had been an opportunity.

She had thought they could take advantage of the weakened Central Federation defenses to force their way into the research institute and rescue their companions. She had not expected that the laboratory had long noticed their presence and was simply waiting for them to act.

For this raid, Gu Qingzhu had deployed all of the Demi-Human Tribe’s elite forces. Aside from a few members with poor combat talent who were left behind for logistics, they had almost gone all out.

The result was that they were completely wiped out in one sweep.

The only thing worth being thankful for was that the Central Federation had not anticipated that someone among the Demi-Human Tribe understood psychic abilities.

Although the Demi-Human Tribe members were not imprisoned in the same room, they were held on the same prison level and could establish a psychic communication network to communicate with one another.

"Miss, don’t say that. This plan was something we all devised together, and everyone agreed to it. Now that something has happened, we’ll face it together."

"That’s right. Don’t give up. It’s not over yet. We can still escape."

"I just heard the guards discussing it. The Hell Rift incident outside hasn’t been properly resolved yet. The laboratory supervisor, Ernst, and the people from the Holy Court went to Hell and haven’t returned."

"If we want to escape, now is our last chance."

"How is everyone recovering?"

"We can fight. The restraint locks can be broken, but we only have one chance."

"The Federation players we encountered before were very strong."

"Yes, they should be the modified bodies mentioned in the data. Their individual abilities are terrifying, but their resistance to psychic abilities is very low. Later, we’ll try to avoid them while escaping. If we really can’t avoid them, you draw their attention, and I’ll use psychic abilities to take them down one by one."

"No, that’s too risky."

Gu Qingzhu said, "If we encounter danger, I’ll stay behind to hold them off. The rest of you scatter and escape individually. Whoever can make it out, make it out."

"Miss..."

"Enough. The modified bodies are powerful. I’m the only one here who can tangle with them for a while. After you leave, find a way to look for Fang Heng. He can help us."

"Everyone, someone is coming."

"The opportunity is here. When they open the passage door, find a way to seize the key."

The Demi-Human Tribe members all quieted down, avoiding any mental fluctuations from the psychic communication network being detected.

"Ka...!"

The metal door at the end of the corridor in the upper-level detention zone opened.

A series of footsteps rang out.

"Supervisor!"

"Sir Dormer!"

Hearing the guards’ voices, Gu Qingzhu adjusted her breathing and silently prepared herself for a fight to the death.

This operation had failed. As the planner, she bore the greatest responsibility.

At the very least, before dying, she wanted to do whatever she could to make amends for the Demi-Human Tribe.

The footsteps gradually stopped.

Gu Qingzhu raised her head and saw the person who appeared outside the glass barrier. Her eyes instantly filled with surprise.

Fang Heng?

How was he here?

Fang Heng said, "Release them."

"Fang Heng, this is the Central Federation’s secret research institute. What you see before you are the Central Federation’s most important SSS-level New Human Project experimental products. Without authorization from higher-ups, I have no authority to release them."

Fang Heng coldly raised his head and looked at Dormer.

Dormer gritted his teeth and continued, "Even if I release them, the guards will stop them from leaving the laboratory. Do you want to become an enemy of the entire Central Federation?"

"I’ll say it one last time. Release them."

Before Dormer could say anything else, Ernst was already terrified. He shouted at the nearby guards, "Are you all deaf?! Release them all! Didn’t you hear that?!"

"Sir, you..."

The soldiers had already realized something was wrong. They secretly activated the emergency alarm, trying to buy time. "We can’t open the cells. We need authorization... Assistant! What are you doing!"

Dormer’s pupils shrank. He suddenly realized that he had lost control of his body as it slowly levitated into midair.

"I already told you. This was your last chance. Unfortunately, you didn’t cherish it."

"Stop! Let him go now!"

The soldiers raised their guns and aimed them at Fang Heng, cold sweat pouring down their foreheads.

They had no idea where this young man had come from, but his actions were unbelievably reckless.

"Oh, sure."

As Fang Heng spoke, he lightly flung his hand. Dormer was violently sent flying backward, smashing into the wall behind him and coughing up a mouthful of blood.

"Bang!!"

Almost at the same time, a surge of mental shock swept out. All the soldiers felt a loud buzz in their heads, followed by dizziness, and they all collapsed unconscious.

Fang Heng turned to face the glass barriers of the cells and thrust a punch forward.

"Bang!!"

With just a single punch, the cell room was instantly shattered.

Gu Qingzhu looked at Fang Heng, momentarily stunned.

She had already been prepared to die.

"Let’s go first. We’ll talk later."

As Fang Heng spoke, he reached out toward Gu Qingzhu, crushed the energy shackles on her wrists, then turned his back and moved down the corridor, smashing all the upper-level cell barriers one by one.

"Thank you."

There were more than twenty Demi-Human Tribe members imprisoned on the upper level, most of them quite strong. They were all shocked when Fang Heng smashed the glass barriers with a single punch, and they bowed to him in thanks.

"Fang Heng."

Gu Qingzhu took a deep breath to steady herself and said, "The Central Federation’s alarm has already been triggered. Defensive forces outside are gathering, and there are also some experimentally modified players inside the research institute. They are powerful. When we go out later, we will definitely run into their interception. Don’t be careless..."
