35 The House Where People Are Chased (VIII)

They were waiting here to kill her.

Zhu Ning placed his palm against the wall and could feel the "pulse" under his palm with every breath.

Boom boom boom——

It sounded like a heartbeat coming from deep within the cave.

Steel is a traditional structure, with steel bars poured into cement. The steel bars are like a grid, and also like a person's meridian skeleton.

In an instant, Zhu Ning connected with the entire house, every door, every wall, every tiny screw. She was diagnosing the pulse and stroking the skeleton of the wall.

In Huang Yaruo's opinion, Zhu Ning's behavior was very strange. She leaned against the wall as if she was praying.

Suddenly, her fingers on the wall curled slightly, and then the whole house shook.

The steel bars twisted inch by inch and gradually broke away from the wall. It seemed as if Zhu Ning was peeling off his skin and pulling out his bones.

Huang Yaruo looked at Zhu Ning in disbelief. She was demolishing a house? She could demolish a house with her bare hands?

In just a moment, the interior of the house exploded.

The incandescent lamp on the ceiling shook wildly, and with a bang, the lamp she had carefully selected fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

The wallpaper peeled back like scraps of newspaper. Pieces of wall paint and broken bricks crashed down, hitting the sofa and television that Huang Yaruo had carefully selected.

The TV was smashed to pieces, the sofa cracked, and the fallen refrigerator hit the snail man, causing him to scream.

Huang Yaruo watched the entire house collapse, even a little stunned. The house she had bought with all her savings and lived in for fifteen years was dying.

boom!

The largest ceiling collapsed.

Huang Yaruo reacted quickly. She stopped staring at her furniture and put on the dead witcher's helmet and protective clothing to protect her head.

She covered her ears, but she thought she could hear the house talking to her, and as the house began to crumble, she heard the house cry out.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts."

“Mom, mom—”

"Shut up!" Huang Yaruo covered her ears tightly. She didn't want to listen anymore.

I'm not your mother!

Devil! You are a devil!

The house shook, and the loud bang, along with the house's sobbing, kept drilling into Huang Yaruo's ears. She squatted beside Zhu Ning, covering her ears and closing her eyes, ignoring the crying.

Zhu Ning was concentrating on demolishing the house. She could not hear the crying and shouting, but only the sound of steel breaking.

The honeycomb was easier to manipulate because it was fully covered in metal, but the house was more difficult to dismantle. With her absolute control, the steel continued to twist and was squeezed into a piece of scrap metal by her.

There was some moisture under her nose on the inside of the helmet, but she didn't have time to wipe it.

There was a system reminder in my ear: [Please do not overuse your mental value.]

Damn it, if she didn't overuse it, Zhu Ning would have died here today. Between dying in a house and having her mental value damaged, she would rather choose the latter.

【Spirit value is decreasing】

【Spirit value is decreasing】

[Decreased by 30 percent]

[Down 40 percent]

[Has dropped by 50 percent]

Bang, Zhu Ning retracted his hand and stopped in time when it was 50%.

She was gasping for breath and her nose was bleeding from the inside of her helmet, but she couldn't even reach out to wipe it. The blood was flowing everywhere, making her look extremely embarrassed, and even more embarrassed was her current state.

In an instant, she lost her hearing and sight. Her five senses were clearly enhanced by genetic drugs and were far superior to those of ordinary people, but now she had lost all five senses.

Her vision went dark, as if everything was moving away from her.

If losing control of one's body is the first level of terror, then the second level of terror is losing all five senses.

Zhu Ning tried to steady herself against the wall, but as soon as she reached out, she realized that the wall had vanished under her grip. She couldn't find her way in the darkness, and couldn't even hear a sound.

Bang!

Someone supported her. The person was very thin and had been tortured for many years until he was just a bag of bones.

Zhu Ning's body was too heavy for her, but she still supported Zhu Ning and prevented her from falling.

"Hello!" she heard a very faint voice, "What's wrong with you?"

With a swish sound——

It was as if water was flowing from her left ear to her right ear, and then back to her left ear. After the water flowed away, her ear canal was unobstructed again.

"Hello? Hello!" Huang Yaruo was speaking.

Zhu Ning blinked her eyes, her vision slowly returning. The outline of broken walls and ruins appeared before her eyes. The entire house was in ruins, and they seemed to be standing in a pile of rubble.

There was mucus at Zhu Ning's feet, and the dead snail man had turned into a pool of water.

There were contaminated spores all around him. The blood-red contaminated spores covered the entire space like fireflies in summer. There were more and denser contaminated spores than last time.

? !

Zhu Ning was listening to the reward when suddenly this sentence came out of nowhere, and the danger was predicted again.

Zhu Ning pushed Huang Yaruo suddenly, and before Huang Yaruo could react, she was pushed to the ground by Zhu Ning.

Bang!

A bullet came flying. Huang Yaruo was wearing a demon hunter's protective suit that was bulletproof. She quickly ran behind the ruins.

Zhu Ning raised her head. She had just used metal manipulation and her brain was not yet recovered, but at this critical juncture, this talent was the best to use.

The bullet stopped suddenly one meter in front of Zhu Ning, and Zhu Ning used metal manipulation to raise a defensive wall.

"There's a suspected mutant ahead." The hearing enhancement from the genetic drug took effect, and she heard someone talking. "Repeat, there's a suspected metal mutant ahead."

Zhu Ning's eyes were blurry and the inside of her helmet was covered in blood. Everything she did was an instinctive reaction.

There was indeed an ambush. This house was an experimental subject. Someone came after Zhu Ning came in.

Zhu Ning knew too much, and they were waiting here to kill her.

After Zhu Ning cleaned up the contaminated area, he exposed himself to the killer, and the next challenge was assassination.

Twenty minutes ago, four heavily armed assassins had been lying in wait in the corridor, staring intently at the green door like wolves hunting in the dark.

They just received the news that a man in a cleaner's uniform entered Experiment No. 777, suspected to be sent by Prometheus to purify the contaminated area.

There were two orders from the higher-ups. If she was swallowed by the green door, then there would be no danger and the team could be withdrawn smoothly, just like the witcher who had entered before.

If she purified the contaminated area, they would kill the invaders as soon as possible. They were a mature killer team that specialized in killing people.

After waiting for twenty minutes, strange things began to happen behind the green door, and suddenly a loud noise came from inside.

Click, click—

It was as if someone had taken the house apart and chewed it up. After about three minutes, the house suddenly became quiet.

With a bang, the dilapidated green door opened, revealing the broken walls behind it and countless contaminated spores flying around.

The worst-case scenario came into play, and Subject 777 was purified.

It was also the first time the killer saw the person behind the door. A woman wearing a pure black cleaner's overalls and a helmet was standing behind the ruins.

She seemed a little exhausted, and Huang Yaruo beside her was supporting her. Did she do all this by herself?

There was no time to think, as all their cameras were turned on and instructions from their superiors came through the earphones.

"Kill her."

"Kill her now."

When a person has just finished purifying a contaminated area, she will be in a trance for a moment. This is the moment when she is most relaxed and it is also the best time to hunt.

With a bang—

The killer's instincts were faster and they shot.

The order from above was to kill on the spot without leaving any survivors, so they didn't intend to leave any room for mercy, and their bullets were all aimed at the opponent's eyebrows.

But the bullet did not hit Zhu Ning's body, but stopped one meter in front of her.

An invisible barrier rose in front of Zhu Ning. Within a one-meter range, bullets were like toys in her palm.

A person with super powers?

Isn't she wearing a cleaner's uniform? How could she be a mutant?

The killer immediately realized that something was wrong and had miscalculated. If he had known that the target of the mission was a person with superpowers, he should have sent a person with superpowers over.

"The target of the mission is suspected to be a person with metal-type abilities." He communicated with his companions.

"Change the air bomb."

It usually only takes three minutes to hunt a person, especially a person with special abilities. If the target is not found within three minutes, it means that the mission is likely to fail. Now it has been more than a minute.

Zhu Ning instinctively pushed Huang Yaruo away. With his brain not working well, he was trying hard to think about the current situation.

The contaminated area was not completely purified. After the house was crushed, it turned into a strange hole. The space was filled with blood-red contaminated spores, and the people lying in ambush were just outside the space.

The contaminated spores are still floating around here. This is a densely populated residential area. Once contaminated, the entire community will become a polluted area, and everyone will become a pollutant.

Zhu Ning should be thankful that his mind was still clear. He had to deal with the enemy first, so he sorted out the important events in an instant.

The people who came were very professional and were equipped with a sniper who was in the opposite building.

Just now, a bullet hit Zhu Ning right in the middle of his eyebrows. It came from the rooftop of the building opposite. Zhu Ning's current eyesight allows him to see a very subtle metallic luster behind the rooftop.

Zhu Ning used to be a sniper, so she can quickly find the enemy's approximate location.

She knew a common sense that to eliminate a team, one must first eliminate their eyes - the sniper.

Zhu Ning's metal manipulation range was only two meters, and she couldn't use this talent to kill the opponent, so she clicked on the system panel.

System: [Do you want to use the item: Pigman's Guillotine?]

Zhu Ning: "Use it."

The sniper held his breath and hid on the rooftop of the opposite building. He had just talked to his companions when they discovered that Zhu Ning could control metal. They immediately concluded that Zhu Ning was a metal-related mutant.

He put away the traditional bullets and was about to replace them with air bullets.

The man was a well-trained sniper. It only took him 30 seconds to make the judgment and reload, but these 30 seconds gave Zhu Ning an opportunity.

He had just changed his weapon and had not yet raised his gun when he suddenly felt a flash before his eyes. The sniper's pupils suddenly contracted, and a guillotine appeared out of thin air in the sight, getting bigger and bigger.

Zhu Ning can control metal, this was his first reaction.

The sniper took the opportunity to dodge, running at a very fast speed, but no matter how he dodged, the guillotine followed him like a snake. This was definitely not a traditional metal-based ability, so why could it have tracking capabilities?

What kind of supernatural power is this?

With a snap, the guillotine chopped down from top to bottom, cutting him in half while he was still thinking, with a 100% hit rate.

[The Pigman's Guillotine has been used and is now in cooldown. The next use will be in 24 hours.]

After eliminating one sniper, there were still four enemies. At the moment Zhu Ning used the pigman's guillotine, another killer had already changed guns.

Bang!

The air bullet was ejected, and the material was wrapped in air, without any metal, so Zhu Ning could not control it.

[Do you want to use the rotten fish head speed-up function? It will consume 3 health points? ]

Zhu Ning: "Use it."

Killer No. 2 was hiding in the shadow of the stairwell. He just fired the shot and when the bullet was only one meter away from Zhu Ning, Zhu Ning moved. She suddenly turned into a shadow and was behind Killer No. 2 in the blink of an eye, but it was too late.

Bang!

This time it was Zhu Ning's turn to shoot.
