"Forget about those two guys who aren't even good for trash. If you're scared, you can go back together." Gu Lingxiao was just worried that the remaining targets would also be separated later, and there would be no one to protect them when they were rescued.
After some discussion, it was finally decided that three people would stay: "Then Godwalker, Giant Spirit, and Ghost will stay."
"You guys really can't handle these nicknames, change them." Gu Lingxiao had wanted to complain for a long time. What kind of nicknames are these? The nicknames are all so awesome, but the people are all so useless.
Especially Zhu Rong, how dare he rise up?
After hearing Gu Lingxiao's complaints, everyone looked ashamed. They hadn't thought much of it before, but now they truly felt unworthy of him.
Only Ghost was somewhat better off; his codename was just a small ghost.
After the others left, Gu Lingxiao disappeared without a trace. The other three could only wait. Gu Lingxiao left in the same direction as Cheng Yuxiang's escape route.
Some minor characters can cause trouble, and Gu Lingxiao just wants to resolve the trouble in advance.
To Gu Lingxiao's surprise, this guy hadn't run far. He was hiding on the roof of a student dormitory less than a kilometer away, where he could still roughly see where everyone had gathered before.
"Hiding here watching, they're definitely up to no good. If they don't leave, then they'll stay here forever."
When Gu Lingxiao reappeared downstairs at the dormitory, he now held a purple super-powered crystal in his hand. He casually tossed it into his backpack and began carefully searching for Professor Hua Yansong's whereabouts.
After searching most of the area, they still couldn't find a trace of him. At this point, Gu Lingxiao had a vague idea of what was going on.
In one day, Gu Lingxiao basically searched the entire Lijiang University, but did not find Hua Yansong's corpse or zombie.
There are three possibilities: they went outside Lijiang University.
It was eaten until not a trace was left.
Another possibility is that they went to the second floor of the laboratory building, but this possibility is not very high. He is more inclined to believe that they were eaten to the last crumb, and then left Lijiang University... and were eaten to the last crumb.
Based on the principle of not missing anything, Gu Lingxiao went to the second floor of the experimental building. Before going to the second floor, Gu Lingxiao glanced at the inside through the window, but only saw one of the chemistry laboratories, which was empty.
Its pollution power is also minimal.
Gu Lingxiao began to search carefully room by room. When he pushed open the door of the middle laboratory, he paused and then gently closed the door.
"Hoo~" He exhaled and slowly retreated. Inside was the top of a head, similar to a human's, but with wriggling tentacles instead of hair. The top of the head was large enough for ten people like Gu Lingxiao to stand on.
The wall between the first and second floors was breached. If it were just a complete head, it wouldn't be too big, but what if it was also connected to the body?
With most of its body hidden underground, and considering the size of its head, if it weren't a deformed child, it would be at least twenty or thirty meters above the ground.
Gu Lingxiao's previous guess that there would be even more terrifying aliens on the first and second floors has now been confirmed. It will take several stages to kill this monster, or one must step into the extraordinary sequence.
Gu Lingxiao even wanted to leave this time, to go far away, because he probably had no chance of winning against this guy.
In the end, Gu Lingxiao gritted his teeth and searched all the remaining rooms. It was this action that led him to discover the four people hiding on the far left.
Or rather, of the three, one of them has mutated and is about to become an alien, with two eyes growing on his chin and forehead, his hands becoming tentacles, and his feet becoming the hooves of an unknown creature.
"who?"
The sound of Gu Lingxiao pushing open the door instantly put the three of them on high alert, and they all turned to look at Gu Lingxiao.
"Hua Yansong?" Gu Lingxiao asked in return. One of the old men looked very much like the person in the portrait, but Gu Lingxiao still asked to confirm.
The old man struggled to his feet. "Who are you?"
Their voices were very weak. They were trapped here, unable to find food or water, and would soon starve and die of thirst.
The statement "The military hired me" is simple and clear, and everyone can understand it.
"That's great, the military has finally sent people!" A girl, besides Professor Hua Yansong, burst into tears instantly.
Hua Yansong also breathed a long sigh of relief.
Gu Lingxiao took out two bottles of mineral water from his backpack. "I'll just have some water and then leave."
Professor Hua Yansong remained relatively calm and, while drinking water, shared a lot of information with Gu Lingxiao.
"There's a monster lurking beneath this experimental building. It's huge, really huge. We don't know when it appeared, and there's a black mist of energy emanating from it. This energy is very tempting to those mutated monsters; it might even prevent them from attacking humans."
"If this energy can be collected, it could potentially stop the mutated monsters from attacking in dangerous situations."
"This mutated energy is truly powerful. An ordinary person who absorbs it will experience a tremendous boost, even surpassing the power of an evolved being. If one can control the direction of the mutation and retain their sanity, it will be the most significant chapter in the history of human evolution."
"Compared to the unlikely possibility of evolving beings, this grayish-black energy is the true path to human evolution."
Hua Yansong spoke until his throat was dry, and the fanaticism in his eyes made him look like a madman, but as the saying goes, there is only a step between genius and madness.
Perhaps this is the kind of imagination and vision that academic giants should have.
Gu Lingxiao completely ignored him; these research tasks were not something he could get involved in.
Seeing that Gu Lingxiao ignored him, Professor Hua Yansong reluctantly shut up.
"How did you get here?" This was also a question that puzzled Gu Lingxiao.
The pollution level on the first floor is so high that it's very difficult for ordinary people to bypass it and come up again.
"Sigh, back then, they were being chased by two mutated zombies. Zhang Tao lured one away by himself. He's a good kid."
As they talked, they went off-topic again.
Gu Lingxiao was speechless.
After all that, we finally got to the point: "Our only ability user here, Lü Ming, used his earth-based abilities to send us up here, but he also got infected by the corrupting power. After the zombies left, he was almost out of his mind and couldn't send us down, which is why we're trapped here."
The information at the time did not specify what the unique ability of the sole evolver was, which misled Gu Lingxiao.
Let's go.
Gu Lingxiao said something and prepared to leave with the three of them.
"What about Lü Ming? What will happen to him?"
“Carrying a time bomb can’t guarantee your safety. You have two choices: stay with him or I’ll take you away. You have thirty seconds to choose and say goodbye.” Gu Lingxiao glanced at his watch and started the timer.
"Aren't you someone sent by the military? Can't you agree to let us take him with us?" the only girl said, her voice trembling with tears.
"Twenty seconds left"
"you....."
"Fifteen seconds left"
"Xiao Fang, listen to this brother. He has turned into a monster and will hurt you. Let's go quickly." Another surviving young man hugged Xiao Fang.
The pity in his eyes seemed somewhat fake, and there was a faint smile on his lips.
