The rescue team leader was shouting and guiding everyone to run with him.

"Quick, quick, quick! I think we've been discovered, follow me, I have a secret escape route!"

But before he could take a few steps, Jiang Xiao lifted him up like a little chick.

Jiang Xiao's arm exerted force, suspending the rescue team leader's entire body in the air.

This sudden scene made everyone else stop in their tracks, watching in shock.

"Captain, it seems Shi Shi's lesson just now wasn't deep enough for you, huh? A secret route? The one that would get us all killed?"

Jiang Xiao's tone was icy, his gaze sharp as a knife, seemingly piercing into the depths of the rescue team leader's soul.

A flash of panic flickered in the rescue team leader's eyes. He struggled to explain, but his lips trembled a few times without uttering any meaningful sound.

His eyes darted around, clearly searching for someone to help.

But everyone present was intimidated by Jiang Xiao's aura, and no one dared to step forward.

"I, I don't know what you're talking about..."

The rescue team leader's voice was weak, his face pale, with beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

"You think I'll believe all of this is just a coincidence? The commotion outside, the abnormalities here, and your panic that seems so contrived."

Jiang Xiao's words were sharp, each word stabbing into the rescue team leader's heart like a needle.

The rescue team leader swallowed, clearly driven to desperation.

His eyes began to wander, not daring to meet Jiang Xiao's eyes.

"Alright, alright! I admit..."

The rescue team leader suddenly broke down, his voice laced with sobs.

"But I was forced too! If they find out I leaked the wastewater information to outsiders, I don't think I'll survive..."

'Crack~'

Without hesitation, Jiang Xiao coldly snapped his neck.

"Heh, you have no integrity? Well, I'm not a good person either."

Everyone else remained motionless, retracting their necks and not daring to move.

Although Jiang Xiao killed the rescue team leader right in front of them, everyone seemed unexpectedly calm inside.

First, the old men who initially had poor psychological endurance had matured considerably after the incident with the maggots in the face.

And then there's the fact that...

It's amusing...

This is the demon child after all!

Do you know what demon means?

Even though the prophecy mentioned the demon child saving the world from this crisis, it didn't say the demon child was a good person.

As for the rescue team members, although their faces showed some complexity, they didn't say anything.

Because they didn't know each other, it was just a temporarily formed team.

Although the captain had taken care of them before.

But if it weren't for Jiang Xiao, they would likely have been led to a "dead end" by the captain.

Once everyone calmed down, they all turned to Jiang Xiao, asking what they should do next.

"What should we do?"

Jiang Xiao sneered.

"Now, I estimate that every move we make is being watched by surveillance cameras, do you have any better idea than taking direct action?"

"Now, our most important task is to find the system controlling these cameras and destroy them."

Shi Shi frowned, and as she spoke, some cameras on the ceiling of the room exploded.

"We'll split into two groups, one group stays here on guard since the cameras in this room are destroyed, it shouldn't be a problem for the time being."

Then Jiang Xiao looked at Shi Shi.

"The combat group is responsible for creating chaos and diverting the enemy's attention. Shi Shi, come with me."

Shi Shi nodded, indicating she understood.

She knew that her combat power was among the best here.

The others obediently followed Jiang Xiao's words, huddling quietly in the corner of the room.

Even though they felt more or less fear, not causing trouble in this situation was already the best they could do.

Jiang Xiao and Shi Shi quickly moved towards the control room, cautiously making their way through the corridors, trying to avoid making any sound.

Just then, there was a sudden series of orderly but careful footsteps outside the lab's big door.

The sound was faint, almost undetectable, but Jiang Xiao and Shi Shi, with their keen perception, immediately realized the urgency of the situation.

"Dad, it seems we've been discovered."

Shi Shi smirked, a sly glint appearing in her eyes.

"Don't be careless, this world has many ways to counter the bizarre, and... are you sure your body can withstand a barrage of heavy weapons?"

Honestly, Jiang Xiao didn't want his body to face a Maxim heavy machine gun directly.

There might also be tear gas or flashbangs or other disgusting stuff.

Seeing Shi Shi's indifferent attitude, Jiang Xiao had to play his trump card.

"There might even be stink bombs, worse than the smell of the dead in the city."

"Eww~"

Shi Shi's face immediately showed a look of disgust, she couldn't be careless now, at least she couldn't let the stink bomb odor get on her.

"Wait?"

Jiang Xiao's body suddenly stopped, his ears slightly twitching, capturing a subtle noise from the door.

"Someone's there."

Shi Shi nodded, she heard it too, her small ears becoming alert, ready to deal with any potential crisis.

At that moment, a deafening explosion occurred, the door was blasted open, debris flying everywhere.

"Damn it!"

Unprepared, Jiang Xiao was showered with glass and wood shards from the doorway.

At that time,

a fully armed squad appeared at the doorway, wearing thick protective suits.

Each of them held a heavy weapon, wearing the most advanced combat helmets.

Jiang Xiao and Shi Shi reacted almost simultaneously, their bodies erupting with incredible speed, sprinting in different directions to try and divert the enemy's fire.

"Open fire!"

A cold voice in the squad commanded.

Bullets poured down like torrential rain, the intense gunfire echoing in the narrow corridors.

Jiang Xiao and Shi Shi dodged the bullets with agility, their movements nearly surpassing human limits.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, some soldiers screamed, clutching their heads and squatting down, as if in severe pain, rolling on the ground.

The black gleam in Shi Shi's eyes slowly dissipated, her voice filled with frustration.

"Didn't manage to blow their heads off... what kind of helmets are these?"

It hurts!

Jiang Xiao tried to dodge the bullets, but failed to avoid a single one, fortunately, they didn't cause any substantial harm when they hit him.

Shit!

The problem was the enemy was shooting too much, too densely, and most of it was aimed at him.

They barely fired at Shi Shi.

Thank goodness, after the enemy's barrage, it was Jiang Xiao's turn to counterattack.
