The moment Xiao Yi was discovered, the Crimson Cross members pounced on him like hungry wolves. Without time to think, Xiao Yi dodged the leader's swift attack with his agility, and at the same time, kicked him in the knee. The man swayed and fell to one knee.
But the others didn't give him a chance to breathe. On both sides, they swung their short sticks and hit Xiao Yi's head and waist fiercely. Xiao Yi jumped back, but accidentally bumped into the equipment behind him, and a sharp pain hit him. Before he could stand firm, two more people hugged his arms from behind, trying to subdue him.
Xiao Yi tried his best and slammed his head into the bridge of one man's nose. With a scream, the man let go. Then, Xiao Yi threw another man over his shoulder and threw him to the ground. However, the people of the Crimson Cross continued to pour in. Xiao Yi gradually became exhausted and suffered multiple injuries. His clothes were stained with blood.
Just as he was about to be lost in the crowd, he suddenly caught sight of a sharp tool on a nearby table. He seized the opportunity, broke free from the two men beside him, and dashed forward, snatching up the tool and wielding it at the approaching enemy. The sharp tool flashed in his hand, temporarily forcing the enemy back.
Forced to cooperate and fall into a maze
Xiao Yi was surrounded by the crowd, knowing that he had no chance of winning if he fought head-on at this moment. Just when he was feeling desperate, a man who seemed to be of high status stepped out from the crowd. He signaled his men to stop, a cunning look in his eyes, and he slowly said, "Xiao Yi, we can give you a chance."
Xiao Yi looked at him warily, saying nothing. The man continued, "The doctor's plan is unstoppable. Instead of resisting in vain, why not join us? You are so smart. If you can work for the doctor, you will definitely have a place in the new world in the future."
Xiao Yi thought to himself that he was currently isolated and helpless. If he pretended to agree, he might be able to gain a deeper understanding of the Scarlet Cross's conspiracy and find a way to crack it. After weighing the pros and cons, he gritted his teeth, slowly put down his weapon, and expressed his willingness to cooperate.
Seeing this, the people of the Crimson Cross put away their hostility and brought Xiao Yi to the doctor. When the doctor saw Xiao Yi, a satisfied smile appeared on his face: "I knew you would make the right choice." Then, the doctor assigned Xiao Yi a task, asking him to assist in the final debugging of the experimental subject.
Xiao Yi obeyed the arrangements on the surface, but he was always looking for opportunities in his heart. However, in the process of contact with the Scarlet Cross, he found that the internal relationships of this organization were intricate and complicated. Everyone seemed to have their own little calculations, and the doctor's true purpose became more and more confusing. He seemed to fall into a deeper mystery.
He was captured alive and tortured to extract a confession
As soon as Xiao Yi was discovered, the people of the Crimson Cross rushed over and quickly subdued him with their numerical advantage. Several people tightly grasped his limbs, making him unable to move.
The leader stepped forward, his eyes revealing cruelty and coldness, and sneered at Xiao Yi: "Hmph, you think you can slip away right under our noses? Tell me, what do you know?" Xiao Yi closed his lips tightly, glared at the other party, and did not answer.
Seeing that Xiao Yi refused to speak, the man became angry and waved his hand. His men began to punch and kick Xiao Yi. Xiao Yi endured the severe pain and never uttered a word of begging for mercy. Seeing this, the man signaled his men to bring various torture instruments and torture Xiao Yi even more cruelly.
