Chapter 289: Attacked at Midnight



Half a month passed in a flash, and there were only three days left before Mu Cheng and Tang Nuo's engagement.

That night, the lights in the research institute were still on at midnight, and all the researchers gathered in the weapons research and development room, waiting to witness the launch of their institute's first research product.

Mu Cheng held the laser gun in his hand, installed two secondary crystal cores and one primary crystal core into the gun, and then assembled the laser gun.

Everyone looked at the laser gun in Mu Cheng's hand, which had been assembled at the first level, and clapped their hands excitedly, "Great, it's finally done."

A male researcher smiled and said, "Dean, how about we try it somewhere else?"

Xiao Xu, a researcher who was also participating in the experiment, immediately shook his head and said, "No, this gun can only be used once before it becomes scrapped. Besides, the crystal cores fired are not to be wasted."

Mu Cheng smiled and nodded. "I know you're all curious about the power of the laser gun, but as Xiao Xu said, it can only be used once, so we can't waste it. Don't worry, this gun will be used soon. When the time comes, I'll have it recorded on video and bring it back for everyone to see."

Knowing that this gun can only be used once and will be scrapped, people naturally will not ask to take it out for trial.

Everyone took the gun and studied it over and over again, and they were so excited that they forgot the time.

At two o'clock in the morning, everyone dispersed and went back to their respective dormitories to rest.

Tang Nuo wrapped himself in a windbreaker and walked out of the water plant. The water plant operated on a two-shift system, so the entire plant was still brightly lit at this time. Tang Nuo was out on a mission today and would not be back at night, but Mu Cheng had to accompany Mu Yueqin and Li Xiaomin to look at a hotel early tomorrow morning.

She will be engaged to Tang Nuo in three days. Mu Yueqin and Li Xiaomei are busy arranging the engagement party. She hasn't even been to the hotel yet. Mu Yueqin gave her an ultimatum that she must go to the hotel at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, so she has to go back no matter how late it is tonight.

Tang Nuo brought her here in the morning, so she didn't drive. In order to hide the space, she didn't take the car out from the space, so she could only walk back.

At this time, there was no one on the street, and the only sound was Mu Cheng's footsteps.

She walked step by step on the deserted street, tapping her arms occasionally. She had arrived at the research institute early this morning and had only just finished her work, so her arms felt a little sore.

Suddenly, there were some slight noises around. Mu Cheng stopped and looked around vigilantly.

After a while, more than a dozen tall men walked out from the deserted street. As soon as they came out, they surrounded Mu Cheng. They all had white ghost masks on their faces, which looked quite scary.

Mu Cheng didn't move or speak, just stood there quietly watching these people.

One of the men stood up and said, "Miss Mu, our captain wants to see you about something. Could you please come with us?"

Mu Cheng asked calmly, "Who is your captain and what do you want me for?"

The man replied, “You’ll know when you go there.”

Mu Cheng curled her lips and sneered, "What if I don't go?"

The man smiled and said, "Miss Mu, we are not the kind of people who are gentle with women. You'd better not test our patience."

"Heh!" Mu Cheng sneered and stood still.

The man raised his hand and waved it, and a wood-type psychic immediately threw out vines, trying to tie up Mu Cheng.

"Level 2 wood ability, powerful." Mu Cheng looked at the vines that were attacking her with a smile. When the vines came close to her, she shook her body and sent out a burst of internal energy. The vines that were already close to her were immediately broken into several sections, and the wood ability user and several people around him were all blown away.
