At this moment, what happened at the gate of the base was like a storm that swept across the entire base.
Everyone's ears were filled with the same news: the doctor they once admired and respected was actually the culprit who pushed the entire world into the abyss of doom!
What is even more shocking is that what they have always believed to be the results of Xu Yi's independent research and development was actually stolen by him from Professor Xie.
This shocking fact was like a bombshell, instantly detonating the entire base. The people who had originally been full of awe for the Xu family now had their faith completely shattered. They could not accept such a person managing the entire base.
The Xu family's status within the base plummeted as a result, and their once glorious image was completely shattered. Furthermore, when the Xu family decided to shield Xu Yi and allow him to continue researching the antidote for the zombie virus in the laboratory, they developed a deep distrust of their family members.
Ever since that incident, Xu Yi's emotions became extremely agitated. He angrily threw the things on the table to the ground.
His face flushed crimson, veins bulged on his forehead, his teeth chattered, and he roared, "What are you doing here again?! You can't see your wife and children until you catch Xie! Get out of here!"
However, just as Xu Yi finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly echoed in the room: "Are you looking for me?"
Hearing this voice, Xu Yi's body trembled violently, his pupils contracted sharply, and he took a few steps back involuntarily. He looked at Xie Qi who suddenly appeared in front of him in horror, and a strong sense of fear and uneasiness surged in his heart.
The figures of Xie Qi and Lu Ze appeared in front of Xu Yi one after another like ghosts. Xie Qi's eyes were cold and sharp, as if they could penetrate people's hearts.
Xu Yi instinctively wanted to turn around and run away, but when he tried to move his feet and was about to call for others, Lu Ze used his special ability without hesitation.
Suddenly, a dazzling flash of lightning streaked through the air, quickly forming a chain of flashing electricity. Accompanied by bursts of thunder and lightning, the chain tightly wrapped around Xu Yi's neck.
"Just stay still. If you dare to make a sound, I'll make you turn into ashes in the next second." Lu Ze's voice was cold and ruthless, full of threats and warnings.
Xu Yi's mouth, which had just opened, froze instantly. His legs became weak due to extreme fear and he fell heavily to the ground.
At this moment, he had completely lost the courage and strength to resist. He could only curl up silently, not daring to move at all.
His voice trembled with fear. “You…you can’t…you can’t kill me. This is the base. My…my dad. If you kill me, my dad won’t let you go.”
However, Xie Qi did not look threatened at all. He just smiled slightly and said calmly: "I'm afraid your father can't take care of himself." After that, he walked towards Xu Yi step by step.
"What are you going to do! Let me go..."
Before Xu Yi could finish his words, Xie Qi stabbed the other person's heart with a knife. The other person did not expect Xie Qi to be so decisive. Blood gushed out of his mouth, and he died with his eyes wide open.
Xie Qi didn't hesitate at all because he simply didn't want to listen to the other person's nonsense. 948 had already told him that the luck Xu Yi had snatched away had completely dissipated.
As long as the other party is killed, the subsequent plot will not be disrupted by unknown factors and will develop along the established route.
Just as Xu Yi's life gradually faded away until it was zero, the system's voice sounded again.
"Ding—the mission progress is 80% complete"
Hearing this prompt tone, Xie Qi's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. At this moment, Lu Ze frowned, took the dagger from Xie Qi's hand, and carefully put it away.
"Why don't you let me do it?"
Lu Ze's eyes revealed a hint of worry and confusion. He didn't understand why Xie Qi was unwilling to rely on him to solve the problem when he was standing right here.
"Your ability recognition is too high." Xie Qi sighed softly. He knew that Lu Ze was very capable, but it was precisely because of this that he was more likely to attract other people's attention.
Then, Xie Qi raised his hand and rubbed the other person's tense cheek, and gently comforted him: "Okay, don't worry, there are many people in the base who want to kill him now, and no one will find out that it's me."
Seeing that Lu Ze was still worried, Xie Qi had no choice but to hold his hand and said intimately: "Take me away from here quickly, my wife, before anyone else notices."
Hearing this address, Lu Ze was shocked. He had never thought that Xie Qi would call him by such an intimate name. These two words seemed to have a magical power, making his ears turn red instantly.
He murmured a promise, then tightly embraced Xie Qi's waist and jumped out of the window without hesitation. Their figures disappeared into the darkness like two flashes of lightning.
The next day, the two went to Professor Wu's laboratory together.
"Wait a moment, it will be ready soon."
Professor Wu comforted Xie Qi while continuously drawing his blood.
He was holding a transparent syringe in his hand, and the red liquid in the syringe was being sucked into it continuously. As time went by, the syringe gradually became fuller and more and more blood was inside.
Lu Ze, standing nearby, appeared particularly nervous. He clenched his fists tightly, his gaze never leaving the scene.
"Okay." Professor Wu said softly. Hearing this, Lu Ze finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He watched Professor Wu carefully remove the needle, then gently press a cotton ball on the spot on Xie Qi's arm where blood had just been drawn.
