The side door frame of the small room was instantly shattered by the explosion, and the lightning raged, even causing Lu Ning to feel a stinging pain on his skin from the electric shock.

He silently turned his head to look at Eileen behind him.

Eileen looked completely innocent: "I'll open the door, otherwise I won't be able to hit anyone."

Lu Ning withdrew his gaze and continued killing the infected.

Because Eileen had created a new location, the patients in the corridor focused their attention on the newly torn opening.

These infected individuals roared and rushed toward the opening, only to be met with bolts of purple lightning.

Lu Ning continued to wield the crimson sword, slaying one infected person after another.

With his physical body comparable to a sixth-tier physical enhancement awakener, plus the power of the Soul-Shaking Fist and the amplification of the Crimson Sword with each attack, he was able to achieve his goal.

His attacks were completely unstoppable for these diseased individuals.

With each strike, Lu Ning was able to kill several infected individuals.

These infected individuals were mostly at the fourth rank, and Lu Ning only encountered two at the fifth rank.

Even so, the overall strength of these diseased individuals remains formidable.

It should be noted that there are quite a few of these infected individuals, and if they were all to break out, they could even pose a threat to the Bureau of Mystery.

After all, as a small base city, the strongest in Base City 121 is only a fifth-tier Awakened, and the number of fourth-tier Awakened is not too many.

The difference in numbers between the two is actually not that significant anymore.

Just then, a sharp whooshing sound rang out, and Lu Ning saw a blood-red tentacle coming from the left at an extremely fast speed.

He slightly turned his body to dodge, thus avoiding the attack.

The crimson sword slashed out, instantly severing the tentacles.

A low growl sounded, followed by heavy footsteps rapidly approaching.

From the direction the tentacles shot out, a tall, fleshy monster rushed towards them.

This fleshy monster has human feet, but its body is extremely bloated, covered with tentacles, and has these six arms.

His head was also quite grotesque, and his eyes gleamed with a cold, bloodthirsty light.

Lu Ning could see that the white mist inside this fleshy monster was much denser than that of other mutated individuals.

This has exceeded the fifth order and reached the sixth order.

As soon as the fleshy monster got close to Lu Ning, it shot out a series of tentacles at him.

Facing these tentacles capable of tearing through steel, Lu Ning remained calm. He gripped the crimson sword with both hands and stepped forward.

The next moment, red and white sword light flashed, severing all the tentacles in its path and landing on the monster.

The monster was instantly cleaved in two, blood gushing out.

Eileen, who had originally intended to help, stared wide-eyed at the sight, a look of shock appearing in her eyes.

The mental pressure emanating from this patient was so overwhelming that even she found it somewhat troublesome.

Unexpectedly, Lu Ning killed him with a single blow?

Just how strong is Lu Ning?

After this mutated creature was killed, only two or three kittens remained among the remaining flesh-and-blood mutated creatures.

Lu Ning and Eileen killed them casually.

At this moment, the corridor was filled with the corpses of the infected.

Blood flowed on the carpet of flesh and blood, and was then absorbed by it.

Upon seeing this, Eileen immediately unleashed a violent bolt of lightning.

The lightning swept across the ground, turning all the corpses of the diseased patients into charred remains.

Lu Ning's hair stood on end because of the comment.

He fixed his hair and then said, "Let's go in and take a look."

The two trudged deeper into the water, one step at a time.

On both sides of the corridor were the same small rooms as before.

The blood vessels in the small room had withered, and the infected individuals inside had already rushed out to attack Lu Ning and Eileen.

As they went deeper, they soon came to an empty room.

This room is several hundred meters in circumference.

On the ceiling, which was covered in flesh and blood, blood vessels hung down.

A portion of the flesh and blood should be connected to the individual diseased individuals, but the diseased individuals have detached from the blood vessels and joined the ranks that previously besieged Lu Ning and Eileen.

There were also some blood vessels with clumps of flesh hanging from them.

These clumps of flesh seemed to be beating slightly, like a heart.

Lu Ning walked up to one of the fleshy clumps and looked at it, discovering that white mist was flowing inside the fleshy clump.

Although the concentration of the white fog wasn't very high, it was gradually increasing.

Eileen also came over.

Looking at the drooping mass of flesh, she frowned, feeling a chill run down her spine.

"These things look a bit like hanging fruits..."

Lu Ning nodded: "These are the unripe fruits."

Eileen's expression was somewhat grim: "If all these clumps of flesh and blood were to turn into the likenesses of those previous infected individuals, the combined impact would likely be enough to devastate the entire base city."

She then looked at Lu Ning and asked, "Should we destroy these things?"

Lu Ning glanced at it and said, "Wait a moment."

After saying that, he took out the Crimson Sword and slashed at the connecting blood vessels of the mass of flesh in front of him.

The blood vessels were severed, and the mass of flesh fell to the ground.

As the mass of flesh and blood landed, it seemed to trigger a life force within it.

The mass of flesh writhed wildly, with tentacles constantly reaching out, seemingly trying to take shape.

Lu Ning calmly observed this scene.

A moment later, the mass of flesh coalesced into a twisted shape resembling an octopus, but it was very small, only as tall as Lu Ning's leg.

Moreover, this thing doesn't have much mental pollution inside it, and its strength is only about second-tier.

The octopus that had materialized wriggled its tentacles and charged toward Lu Ning.

Lu Ning's feet flashed with white light as he kicked him to pieces.

He then grabbed a lump of flesh.

This time, after severing the blood vessels, he didn't let the chunks of flesh fall to the ground.

However, despite the ruptured blood vessels, the mass of flesh was still forcibly activated, and a tentacle pierced into Lu Ning's palm, its blood sharp and menacing.

Lu Ning watched expressionlessly until the mass of flesh and blood in his hand transformed into a humanoid mutant the size of an infant.

These humanoid mutants roared and tried to attack Lu Ning, but Lu Ning threw them to the ground and stomped on them until they were crushed.

"Destroy it."

As Lu Ning spoke, Eileen nodded, opened her arms, and bolts of lightning shot out, accurately striking the chunks of flesh.

As they moved through the open space, they destroyed all the clumps of flesh and blood.

As they ventured deeper into the space, Lu Ning and Eileen saw a scene on the wall.

On the wall, which was made of flesh and blood, several figures were embedded.

These figures were dressed in black trench coats from the Mist Bureau, and their bodies were pierced with veins.

At this moment, their flesh and blood had been almost completely hollowed out, turning them into dried corpses.

Eileen frowned and said, "Could these be members of the Third Operations Team? Are they being used as energy?"

Lu Ning glanced at them and said, "Get them down first, then take them out and ask the other people in the Mist Bureau."
