Chapter 138
The golden pupils were cold and deep, and they didn't look like human eyes at all. Yan Zhongjie's reaction speed was not slow, and he realized almost instantly that he was being played by Wen Xin and others.
At that moment, his face turned horrible and he realized that he had made a fatal mistake.
The mutant detector is the biggest reliance of the First Base, which is confident that it can grasp the whereabouts of mutants. With the help of the base's enhanced equipment, it can detect the whereabouts of all mutants within a radius of five kilometers, and the error rate so far is less than 0.01%.
But that is a detector with no replacement version.
A pack of hyenas smelling meat, this phrase is no exaggeration to describe the management of the First Base.
In the early years, they salivated over the huge profits created by the laboratory and never tired of stuffing people into it.
After Anqi's accident, within a few months, the data storage room alone had no less than three personnel changes. Those who "voluntarily" left either became food for the mutants or simply disappeared from the world without a trace.
The problem is that among these people who have undergone a major blood transfusion, none of them is as skilled in mutant research as Anzi!
Anqi's desire to control core research has reached an almost abnormal level. Although he has many trusted generals, no one can take over his responsibility. All the instruments in the First Base that can restrain mutants are, on the one hand, the result of a large amount of experimental data, and on the other hand, they are inseparable from Anqi's extremely high achievements in the field of mutant research.
The ultimate impact of the absence of Anqi is that the revision or update of all instruments came to a standstill six months ago.
It doesn't sound too late, but you have to know that most of the powerful S-class creatures, including Tyrannosaurus, evolved into their complete form within the past six months.
That means that the latest generation of detectors has no record of their evolutionary information at all, let alone detecting their whereabouts!
In fact, the Scaled Vipers didn't expect that they could sneak into the First Base so easily. To be on the safe side, they arranged for a little fox to interfere with their thoughts, but it turned out to be completely useless. Mimicry solved all the infiltration problems.
This just confirmed Wen Xin's analysis after communicating with Wen Jinfeng: "My brother told us to take it slow, which proves that the situation is not as critical as we thought, or it is constrained."
"According to the intelligence provided by other forces, the population movement and material loss of the First Base have not changed much in the past six months. So excluding external factors, it is likely that something big happened within them."
"The First Foundation is now the target of everyone's attention. Any unusual movement will attract widespread attention from other forces. We have not received similar intelligence. The least likely possibility is that the news was not timely or was intercepted. The most likely possibility is that the incident happened a long time ago and the subsequent impact was artificially interfered with, so it did not attract too much attention from others."
Wen Jinfeng was under surveillance and could not pass on more information to Wen Xin, nor did he have any channels to learn about the situation in the outside world. But before he was captured, an event that was enough to shake the foundation of the First Base had occurred, that is, An Qi was seriously injured and nearly died.
In addition, although there have been reports that Anqi is fine, he has never come out to take charge of the overall situation. Wen Xin is almost certain that the source of the First Base's shackles lies with Anqi.
He pointed out bluntly: "This is our chance!"
After Wen Xin told him the truth, the Scale Viper felt extremely proud of the young man.
It did not lower its guard, hiding in the dark, closely watching Yan Zhongjie's reaction. Because Wen Xin also said later that Yan Zhongjie was able to react immediately to Anqi's accident and completely block the relevant information, which was enough to prove that this person was not as arrogant as he seemed.
Yan Zhongjie, who was standing in the court at this time, undoubtedly had a strange reaction.
Hearing the miserable screams, he did not run away. Instead, he turned around and picked up the gun that had fallen to the ground as quickly as possible.
Ordinary firearms cannot cause damage to S-level skin. Even if they are specially made bullets, they have to be able to hit the person. Picking up the gun in front of Yuan Yanzhong looks like the utmost helplessness and rage.
However, the direction that Yan Zhongjie's gun was pointing was not at the original rock in the center of the courtroom, but at everyone's heads!
Yuan Yanzhong's eyes sharpened, and his palms instantly turned into hard claws, slamming Yan Zhongjie to the ground like a hurricane.
The latter, however, burst out at inhuman speed in the blink of an eye!
Yan Zhongjie was not faster than Yuan Yanzhong. After all, a Tyrannosaurus at its peak could even exceed the speed of sound, so his sudden movement was only 0.01 seconds faster than Yuan Yanzhong expected.
In just 0.01 seconds, the bullet accurately hit the fluorescent lamp above the head.
There was a loud bang, and the light bulb shattered under the huge impact, followed by a piercing alarm. From the ceiling came the sound of a series of mechanisms being activated, and dozens of spray devices extended, with gray-black powder bursting out like smoke!
In the blink of an eye, the entire joint courtroom had turned into a gray-black fog.
The gray-black powder was an imitation of the crystal. Although it was not as good as the crystal in making the mutants lose all their mobility in an instant, it was enough to make them weak.
Feeling the familiar pressure, Yuan Yanzhong's blood surged. He turned around and shouted in the direction of the scale vipers: "All of you get out of here, leave this court!"
Just as he finished speaking, a great force came from under the palm of Yuanyan. It was Yan Zhongjie.
"Hahahaha, it's too late to run now!"
The middle-aged man who was pinned down by the Tyrannosaurus Rex began to struggle madly, regardless of everything. His pupils lost their original color and were gradually covered by an ominous scarlet, eventually turning into vertical pupils like a ferocious beast.
These eyes, devoid of any emotion and filled with the brutality of beasts, reminded Yuan Yan of those transformed mutants.
The source of mass-produced mutants is at the First Base. Perhaps it is because they are eager to fill the gap left by Anqi's accident, but the experiments in creating artificial mutants are more hasty and more inhumane than those in creating mutants.
Therefore, mass-produced people with special abilities will all have a very fatal side effect, which is that most of them will always fall into madness uncontrollably, with only bestiality and no rationality!
Yan Zhongjie's current reaction was very similar to that of those superpowered people when they had an attack. But what was even more terrifying was that his skin was shaking irregularly.
It's not that the nerves are acting up, it's that the surface layer of skin is suddenly "alive" in an unnatural way! So rather than shaking, it looks more like countless tiny worms buried under the blood vessels, wriggling at the same time!
Yan Zhongjie also underwent the transformation experiment!
"There's a problem with Yan Zhongjie, everyone get out!"
Li Yongming was one of the first to react. Seeing that something was wrong, he quickly elbowed the staff member, and after escaping from the restraints, he picked up his gun and opened fire, while calling on the alliance members to leave the place as soon as possible.
For a moment, the entire courtroom was filled with gunshots, the sound of people evacuating, and inexplicable screams of panic.
In this extremely short period of time, Yan Zhongjie's body changed again. His flesh and blood swelled, and his skin stretched. It was as if a dozen pairs of invisible hands appeared from the sky and grabbed Yan Zhongjie's skin from different directions with all their strength.
Seeing that he was about to turn into a twisted and deformed monster——
Bang!
Yuan Yan's eyes were cold and without any hesitation, he strangled the neck of this "monster" before it was completely formed.
Yan Zhongjie's head drooped softly, the howling in his mouth stopped abruptly, and the changes in his body stopped.
But unexpectedly, the next moment, the flesh and blood that had apparently calmed down began to wriggle violently again and launched an attack on the original rock.
If Yuanyan had not reacted quickly and retracted his claws in time, he would have been "bitten" off a piece of flesh by those crazy flesh and blood!
“Ahhhh, hahahaha, ahhhhhaha—”
"It's all because of you. It's all because of you that I've become like this!"
Without any restraints, Yan Zhongjie staggered to his feet from the ground, his deformed body covered with gray-black powder, his rolled-up eyeballs swollen with bloodshot, and the cries from his mouth sounded like both great pain and a wild laugh.
The mutant experiment was carried out under the leadership of Dr. Anqi and with the approval of Yan Zhongjie.
The former regards variants as works of art, and the latter regards them as tools to consolidate their rights.
Not only was he bitten back by the tool, but he was also forced to this extent. Yan Zhongjie endured the inhuman pain while blaming all of it on Yuan Yanzhong, with a strong hatred that almost overflowed from his eyes.
"The First Foundation is the master who created you, but you would rather submit to an outsider. You actually betrayed your master!"
"You beasts, you are all a bunch of ungrateful beasts! I will make sure you all die without a complete corpse!"
.
The ground beneath his feet suddenly began to shake continuously. The little panda was so scared that he pulled out his airplane ears: "Is it an earthquake?"
Wen Xin quickly discovered the clue: "No, the tremor came from the city center."
He reached out and touched the little panda's head twice, a hint of worry appearing in his eyes.
The Joint Court was in the city center, and it looked like a conflict had broken out between the two groups. He had no idea what kind of backup Yan Zhongjie would have to deal with the S-class mutant after losing the support of Dr. Anqi, and he could not make any countermeasures in advance.
Now, the infiltration operation is going smoothly. Wen Xin knows that he cannot be distracted by other things now, and he can only choose to trust Tuanzi.
The sudden movement really attracted a lot of people's attention. The guards who were hiding in the health center popped their heads out from behind the door one after another, looking towards the direction of the city center with suspicion.
They whispered to each other, seemingly hesitating whether to rush over to provide support.
Wen Xin counted the heads carefully and found that there were about twenty people attracted by the movement and there should be some more below.
He pressed the button without hesitation.
Bang!
