Lu Sheng held his breath and listened intently to the conversation among the people in the office.
What do these monsters want with Jiang Shuguang? What could this middle-aged retired cadre, who lost his son and is now single-mindedly focused on developing scientific parenting methods, possibly have that these people covet?
Surely it can't be a secret Chinese folk remedy for having children?
Just as Lu Sheng was guessing, the alluring young woman with a face full of red spots near the door suddenly moved her fingers, and a black figure fell heavily to the floor with a thud.
Then, a pungent, nauseating stench wafted over, making Lu Sheng and Xiao Ning's eyes burn.
“Smells cannot be blocked by spatial magnetic fields,” Xiao Ning said, spreading his hands innocently.
Lu Sheng ignored him, her brows furrowed as she stared at the dark figure huddled beside the long table.
The figure that suddenly fell to the ground was none other than Jiang Shuguang! It seems that this woman with red spots on her face is a high-level spatial ability user, and her space can hold living things!
Space-type ability users are considered rare in the post-apocalyptic world. Not only are they few in number, but the conditions for upgrading are also extremely demanding.
Most spatial ability users only have a few square meters of usable space, while a lucky few with higher ability levels can expand their space to tens of square meters. However, these spaces are almost always only suitable for storing inanimate objects and are not heat-insulated.
In the three years since the apocalypse, apart from Lu Sheng, they have never seen a superhuman who can put living things into his space.
The woman in front of them had a space that could actually fit a grown man who was over 1.8 meters tall!
These bizarre and ugly things are indeed not to be underestimated.
Jiang Shuguang was bound hand and foot, staggering and lying on the ground. His body was covered with a multitude of old and new wounds, most of which were thin, rough whip marks, interspersed with burns and various strangely shaped cuts.
Some of the old wounds had become infected and suppurated, and the wounds were covered with foul-smelling rotten flesh and pus. Maggots could be faintly seen wriggling in the gaps between the skin and flesh!
These disgusting insects were gnawing at the bits of flesh and trembling fat in Jiang Shuguang's wound, their swollen bodies burrowing into the bloody, mangled wound.
Zhang Shuguang twisted his body with a ferocious expression, his face flushed red from the effort to endure the pain, and his entire face was covered with muddy sweat.
"Tsk tsk."
Even Xiao Ning was speechless.
Cruelty is indeed a vile quality ingrained in the genes of island nations.
"She's very stubborn; she won't talk even after all this interrogation." The woman with red spots sat gracefully in the chair, deliberately grinding her delicate high heels against the wound on Jiang Shuguang's back.
Jiang Shuguang gritted his teeth and didn't utter a sound.
The middle-aged man at the head of the long table stared fiercely at Jiang Shuguang. "Haven't he suffered enough? Continue the interrogation, continue questioning. I don't believe he's made of iron."
"Why did they arrest Jiang Shuguang?" Lu Sheng leaned slightly towards the door.
Xiao Ning touched his nose and said in a light tone, "I heard that they wanted the quantity and location of nuclear bombs stored within the territory, but Commander Jiang refused to tell them, so they suffered a bit."
"A nuclear bomb?" Lu Sheng looked up in surprise.
There are only a handful of nuclear-armed states in the world, and the number and location of their nuclear weapons are top secrets at the national level. As a defeated nation in World War II, this island nation was forced to halt its nuclear weapons research. If these radioactive monstrosities, having infiltrated from the ocean, were to obtain nuclear weapons, it would pose a devastating crisis to other bases within China.
“Stubbornness won’t help. We have plenty of ways to make you open your mouth.” The woman with red spots used the tip of her shoe to gently nudge Jiang Shuguang’s chin with a seductive gesture.
Just as she lowered her head, Jiang Shuguang suddenly raised his head and spat out a mouthful of turbid blood viciously into the woman's face!
The woman couldn't dodge in time and got sprayed all over her face. She frantically wiped it off with her sleeve.
Jiang Shuguang's eyes, which had been dull and gray from the torment, finally lit up with a glimmer of light. "Don't even think about it. Even if I die, I will take these secrets with me!"
Upon hearing this, the woman with red spots contorted her face with rage, making her already horrifying appearance even more terrifying.
She deliberately poked Jiang Shuguang's bloody wound with the tip of her shoe, pushing it in several times. "You really think we wouldn't dare kill you!"
Just as she raised her foot to kick Jiang Shuguang, a flash of white light suddenly appeared before her eyes.
The next second, a bone-chilling cold came from her raised ankle.
The woman felt the weight on her feet suddenly lighten, but the next moment, a piercing pain shot through her ankle!
A foot wearing a red high heel rolled to the door.
Before the woman could even react, her right leg had been severed with a single blow!
Lu Sheng moved with lightning speed, kicking the woman with red spots off the chair and grabbing Jiang Shuguang by the collar, throwing him to Xiao Ning behind him.
Jiang Shuguang's practice of treating women as breeding machines and running a human breeding farm is certainly despicable, but there are many possible outcomes for him, but he cannot be coerced by this monster from the archipelago!
The dozen or so people around the long table froze for a second, then simultaneously stood up and rushed toward Lu Sheng!
The young man with the huge tumor on his head released a barrage of sharp ice blades, which instantly attacked Lu Sheng like a large net.
A surging water dragon shot out at a tricky angle, heading straight for Lu Sheng's slender waist.
Without hesitation, the remaining people unleashed their superpowers, bombarding Lu Sheng and Xiao Ning relentlessly.
The water dragon roared through the air, emitting a piercing compressed sound, and instantly rushed in front of Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng's slender body nimbly retreated two steps, and the spot where she had just stood was instantly smashed into a deep pit with a diameter of half a meter by the water dragon.
Taking advantage of Lu Sheng's moment of dodge, the others launched a barrage of attacks, giving her no chance to catch her breath.
