The cold light from the monitor screen cast flickering shadows on the man's face as he stared at the group of figures on the screen.
"They really are... a bunch of unlovable... ants..." His deep voice betrayed no emotion, as if he were merely commenting on a group of troublesome insects.
He walked slowly to the leather sofa, sat down gracefully, crossed his legs, and lightly tapped the armrest with his fingertip: "Have all the things underneath been moved back?"
Brother Ren immediately bowed, his posture humble: "The last batch was just delivered back tonight..."
All that's left over is the food you asked us to prepare for 'that person' in advance.
"Have you replaced all the missing parts?" The boss tapped his fingers lightly on the sofa armrest...
"They've all been replaced, and there are even a few left over according to the numbers..." Blade's head drooped even lower.
"You need to bring the food you prepared back," the owner said calmly.
Blade immediately understood: [It doesn't matter if the Rock Base is destroyed; those experimental subjects can be captured again at any time, but...]
He leaned down even further, his body already hunched over: "Okay, boss. You get some rest, I'll take some men over there right now."
"Those ants jumping around too happily are really... an eyesore!" the boss suddenly said softly, his gaze still fixed on the screen.
A cold glint flashed in Blade's eyes: "I'll handle this together."
The man on the sofa stopped responding, stood up, straightened his non-existent clothes, and walked straight upstairs, showing no further interest in the ongoing massacre on the screen.
Only after the man's figure disappeared did Brother Ren leave the room, still bowing, and gently close the door behind him.
Just as the door closed, something unexpected happened on the monitor screen.
A plant is expanding and growing at an astonishing rate, its emerald green vines thrashing wildly like a giant python awakening.
Unfortunately, the two did not witness this scene.
......
At the entrance to the Rock Base, on a high watchtower, several guards were already terrified by the continuous explosions and towering flames inside the base.
With the central area engulfed in flames, and even the command post building collapsing in the inferno, the instinct for survival was fully ignited...
"Run! Run! The base is finished..."
Someone shouted hoarsely, and the guards on the watchtower practically tumbled down, frantically pulling open the gate.
The thirty Rock-type ability users guarding the gate wished they had more legs, scrambling to squeeze through the half-open door and fleeing desperately into the darkness outside the base...
They had barely run a hundred meters when they ran headlong into a menacing group—it was Si Sheng and his Starlight Base team.
Jin Xiao, with his sharp eyes, immediately recognized the rock-colored clothing worn by the fleeing people by the light of the distant fire.
"Ah Sheng, he looks like a fish that escaped from the rock and fled in panic."
"I'm not blind! Nor am I mentally challenged!" Si Sheng replied expressionlessly, his eyes sweeping over the group of panicked fugitives without the slightest pity, uttering just two words.
"Let's do it!"
The Starburst Ability users brought by Si Sheng quickly dispersed, forming a semi-encirclement that surrounded the thirty or so Rock Guards who were trying to escape.
The supernatural light flickered faintly in the darkness...
The Rock Power users surrounded in the middle turned pale, and some of them knelt down with a thud, pleading with tears streaming down their faces.
