Chapter 31 Tough Little Monsters
Qi An and his companion naturally headed towards the Cyber Security Department.
Actually, the sound of "running" came before the White Priest pounded on the door.
Before the power went out, Qi An opened the partition door leading to the Cyber Security Department.
As soon as the power was cut, she slammed the notebook shut, grabbed Tan Fu, and ran!
Instead of heading towards the outermost office, Qi An ran towards the main entrance of the Cyber Security Department. He had already sensed that there was another clone blocking the main entrance.
The White Priestess had a map in her mind and had already blocked their escape route!
But its map wasn't detailed enough. Qi An pulled Tan Fu and rushed towards one of the two safe houses of the Cyber Security Department.
The door to the room had been opened before the power went out.
The safe house had a side door. Qi An rushed in, his eyes sweeping over the weapon rack. He picked up a cannon barrel and a shell, shouting at the bewildered people in the room:
"Take the anti-pollution medicine and hide it under a table! Quickly!"
After she finished yelling, she rushed out through the side door.
There was another corridor outside the door, and Qi An paused for a moment in it.
The clone that had been about to break down the door of the outer office and block them from both sides, as they sensed, heard the noise and changed course, rushing towards them.
The corridor in front of the main office is connected to this corridor in both directions, forming an L-shape.
Qi An quickly loaded the cannon into the barrel, and the moment his clone popped out from around the corner, he fired a grenade!
This was the first time she had used a heavy weapon, and the huge recoil made her stagger. The wound on her shoulder, which had already formed a bloody film, reopened!
But she only grunted, then dropped the smoking cannon barrel and grabbed Tan Fu again, running away.
Before the power was cut off, Tan Fu had already used a mechanism to completely kill Insect 1.
Insect 1 was far less clever than Insect 2. It escaped for only two minutes before stepping back into the trap, where it was pierced by a cluster of honeycomb-like poison needles that fell from the sky, turning it into a hedgehog.
When attacking the power switch, the clones belonging to Bug 1 were not killed by the mechanisms in the corridor; the main body died, and the clones immediately perished.
It's a shame that there wasn't an enhanced combat drone on hand, otherwise Qi An would have dared to confront the remaining Insect 2 White Priest head-on!
A direct confrontation was not an option, but Qi An had already seen the entire underground central layer in Tan Fu's memory.
She had already created a map in her mind!
This map is definitely clearer than the one for the White Priest in Bug 2, and it also has clear markings of the locations of all of the White Priest's clones!
With a 70% mutation bonus, Qi An carried Tan Fu on his back and his speed was not slow at all.
In this maze full of holes and branching paths, Qi An's ability to escape alone would be enough to give Chong 2 a hard time!
After many twists and turns, they had passed the Crystal House and the large office of the Student Affairs Department, and were approaching the main corridor leading to the exit!
Qi An suddenly slipped.
The ground seemed to be covered with a layer of transparent, slippery liquid.
The liquid perfectly evaded human sight in the dimly lit corridor with only emergency lighting!
Qi An was running too fast, so the sudden slip caused her to fall flat on her face!
It was a backward fall, and Tan Fu landed first, with Qi An crashing heavily onto Tan Fu!
The little girl let out a sharp but short scream.
Qi An was in excruciating pain in his ankle and tailbone, but he immediately scrambled to his feet.
A pool of blood splattered on the ground, the bright red blood mixed with the sticky, oily, transparent liquid, forming a vivid, thin jelly.
This liquid! It's spread right near the exit, is it a trap set by the White Priest of Insect 2?
Is it available at every exit?
Qi An also gritted his teeth—this insect was far too clever and cunning!
The blood on the ground was vivid, but Tan Fu's face was ashen white.
She seemed to faint from the pain for a moment, but woke up when Qi An scooped her up.
"The exit is just ahead, just bear with it!" Qi An said, as he could already sense that the White Priest's main body and its large clone that had smashed the power switch were only a few hundred meters away.
She dared not delay and carried Tan Fu on her back again.
Tan Fu weakly clung to her clothes, as if trying to speak.
"If you want me to go first, you might as well shut up!" Qi An supported Tan Fu's legs, leaned forward, and tried to stand up.
But her legs felt weak, and when she stood up halfway, her legs and arms went limp!
It was as if the strength of her muscles had been suddenly drained away; she couldn't hold on for a moment and fell down again!
Qi An fell again, and Tan Fu's arm went limp, failing to hold her firmly, and he fell down once more!
"I...I mean, this slime...seems poisonous!" Tan Fu was speechless and weak.
She was as weak as a puppy that hadn't eaten for three days, and her voice was like a sob: "I...I think...I can't see...things very clearly anymore!"
Qi An choked up for a moment, and she also felt that the things in front of her seemed to be doubled!
She soon spotted the White Priest!
When Qi An saw the White Priest, he felt that he was not seeing double again, because the two White Priests had merged into one as they walked!
......
In fact, she was still seeing double; the White Priest's clone and her original self had merged into one.
The toxin was a neurotoxin that took effect very quickly. Qi An's muscles were weak all over, his head was buzzing, and he was unable to move for a moment. He watched helplessly as a tentacle wrapped around his neck!
The white priest's face was close to hers, his handsome nose almost colliding with hers.
He was still smiling through gritted teeth, but this time the smile was colder, hiding a bloodthirstiness.
"They're really tough to deal with, two little girls, two little monsters!"
The two little monsters were poisoned by the White Priest and were hung on the wall by two tentacles, face to face with the White Priest, but they still did not change.
The white priest narrowed his bright, handsome eyes slightly, then immediately noticed their hands still clasped together.
After taking a closer look at Qi An and Tan Fu's condition, it quickly determined that Qi An was the one purifying Tan Fu.
She can even purify Tan Fu; she's a little monster!
Two tentacles wrapped around two slender arms, and the white priest was about to tear them apart.
However, tentacles also sprouted from Qi An's hands, and when it tried to pull them apart, it couldn't budge them!
The White Priest clearly saw Qi An's shimmering white tentacle, and his eyes widened.
A series of chaotic thoughts flashed through his mind, but his most important thought was: He must! He absolutely must! He had to corrupt those two girls immediately!
Tan Fu's brain has been highly enhanced. If she follows the previous plan and voluntarily undergoes the mutation, at most she will become a yellow-robed priestess.
But her resistance to pollution makes her a strong candidate to become the White Priestess!
What if it's even higher?
And this Qi An!
She's a bit strange, but the White Priest has a gut feeling that Qi An isn't the only possibility; she's definitely going to be even higher!
The White Priest's sharp bone spikes pressed against Tan Fu and Qi An's shoulders.
It's okay if we don't let go, it can just cut off those two arms, right? Pain will only accelerate the mutation!
The white priest plunged his dagger into flesh!
But the White Priest's abdomen was also abruptly pierced by an equally sharp tentacle!
Behind Qi An, two blade-like tentacles that grew out along with the tentacles on his hands had long been hidden behind his clothes, ready to strike!
One tentacle sliced through the bone spurs on Tan Fu's body, while another pierced into the White Priest's abdomen, then immediately curved and plunged into the back of its head!
At the same time, Qi An dug his hands into the thick tentacle on his neck and tore it out fiercely!
She is resistant to venom! When she was in her pure human form, she was poisoned by a mutated snake and was able to recover in three hours.
In a 70% mutation state, the neurotoxin can only poison her for two minutes!
Qi An's knife failed to penetrate the back of the White Priest's head, as it erected "mycelium" for defense!
Qi An was unable to pry open the thick tentacle in his neck for a moment.
As expected of the most powerful white priest, the white priest prepared for defense the moment it was attacked, and although its abdomen was covered in green blood, it only retreated slightly!
It tightened its two thick tentacles, its eyes turned completely black and cold, and clenched its fist, punching towards Qi An's sternum!
But thunderous footsteps echoed through the dark, seemingly endless corridor.
Along with the footsteps came a repulsive force, a force that seemed to come from nowhere, which actually stopped the White Priest's heavy punch!
The repulsive force only lasted for a second, but the force of the fist had already been neutralized!
A cold light rushed from the corridor, carrying an inexplicable force, which severed the two thick tentacles at the root with a single strike!
Yang Yuning rushed out of the darkness, and the instant the tentacles were severed, he waved his hand and directly overturned the White Priest.
He pinned the White Priest against the wall, leaving a dent in it!
Qi An slid down the wall and immediately caught Tan Fu as he fell.
She saw many people rushing towards Yang Yuning from behind in the dark corridor!
She said, "There are so many people outside, they have everything they want. Do you think they can be sealed away forever by the White Priest's temporary sealing method?"
Qi An ran all the way towards the exit, waiting for this sliver of a chance for timely rescue!
