Professor Hua groaned in pain intermittently, while Ye Qingxi gasped for breath, "Professor, hang in there! Hang in there! The alarm has been sounded, and the reinforcements will be coming up from the eighteenth floor soon..."

Director Zhen was still wailing and screaming: "Mingwang! It was them! They launched a blatant attack, they must be wiped out, not a single one left alive! Death penalty! Arrest them, death penalty!"

Ye Qingxi was indeed familiar with the route. She led them around several times, managing to avoid the corridor through which the pursuers were running. Tong Su was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when she looked up and her expression suddenly tightened—

A ghostly figure, tall and strong, wielding menacing weapons, moved with such speed that he was almost invisible. He suddenly descended, landing precisely on the level above them in the blink of an eye!

They were only one floor away from them.

It's Wu Ming!

Has he caught up yet?!

Wu Ming glanced at the floor, then his body suddenly swelled, and a thick snake tail materialized from his waist—

Ye Qingxi's beastly intuition told him that something was wrong with the air. Suddenly, he raised his hand, grabbed Tong Su, and pulled her back sharply. There was a huge impact, and the ceiling shattered!

A man with a human body and a snake's tail descended from the sky, blocking their escape route.

"It's you!" Ye Qingxi gasped, her body tensing as she stared intently at the figure in front of her. "The snake-like mutant from the cruise ship!"

He pushed Professor Hua off his back and handed him back to Tong Su to support, saying, "I'll hold him off, you guys run!"

Wu Ming said calmly, "You are no match for me, get out of my way."

Ye Qingxi gritted her teeth and lunged forward recklessly: "So what! If you want to kill them, you'll have to get over my dead body first!"

He knew, of course, that he was no match for Wu Ming; in a one-on-one fight, he had an 80% chance of dying at Wu Ming's hands, but—

He can't hide!

If he hides, the others will surely die!

Tong Su raised her eyes, gave Wu Ming a deep look, and whispered, "We won't die, Professor. Let's go first."

Wu Ming glanced over casually, his gaze indifferent and cold, as if he hadn't noticed her at all.

However, Tong Su keenly sensed the reassurance hidden in the man's cold gaze.

He was trying to reassure her.

Director Zhen pointed at Wu Ming, his mouth agape as if he wanted to say something, but it seemed like it wasn't the right place to say it. Finally, he stamped his foot and, together with Tong Su, helped Professor Hua back down the corridor.

Bang bang bang—

The mercenaries jumped down one after another from the hole that Wu Ming had smashed, and opened fire in the direction of Tong Su and the other two.

Unfortunately, their bullets always seemed to hit either the fallen wall debris or the tangled battle between Wu Ming and Ye Qingxi.

Those who have honed their beast-like abilities to the extreme are impervious to blades and bullets; bullets hitting them will not harm them at all.

Before Tong Su and the others could even catch their breath, the pursuers rushed in again from the direction of the stairwell. Professor Hua gritted his teeth: "Let's go this way, there's a secret passage here..."

It was an extremely wide ventilation duct. The three of them climbed in one by one, and suddenly the duct became extremely slippery. They didn't know what Professor Hua had pulled, but the duct suddenly became extremely slippery.

It looked like a giant slide. The three of them moved forward and immediately lost control of their bodies, screaming as they fell down with the force of gravity!

Bang bang bang—

The bullets hit the pipe wall, bounced up a few times, and slid down, one even touching Tongsu's feet.

Tong Su opened the X-ray vision to look inside.

Ye Qingxi has completely transformed into a tiger; this is his strongest beast form.

Wu Ming still maintained his half-human, half-snake appearance, but the tiger was treated like a toy, being maliciously tormented and beaten by him.
