Upon hearing Xu Xiwang's suggestion, Su Yueyao nodded, and the two quietly sneaked inside.
The further you go in, the dimmer the lights become, until finally, you can't see the road ahead at all.
The two walked in cautiously.
Xu Xiwang kept an eye on the situation ahead while also observing his surroundings.
Seeing Xu Xiwang's serious expression, Su Yueyao also put aside her playful thoughts and carefully observed her surroundings.
Suddenly, Su Yueyao saw a place ahead with red lanterns lit up.
Seeing this, Xu Xiwang quickened his pace and walked forward.
Su Yueyao quickly followed after them.
The two had only taken two steps when they heard a rumbling sound ahead. Then, a hole cracked open in the floor, and a huge black python crawled out.
The python opened its mouth and roared wildly at Su Yueyao and Xu Xiwang.
Upon seeing this, Su Yueyao turned pale and trembled uncontrollably, making it difficult for her to even stand. She had no choice but to grab Xu Xiwang's arm and lean on him to keep her balance.
Seeing that the two humans dared not move, the python became even more arrogant, hissing incessantly, and then swallowed Su Yueyao and Xu Xiwang whole.
Seeing this, Xu Xiwang quickly stepped in front of Su Yueyao and kicked the python.
Thud! Thud!
The python, in pain, swayed a few times before lunging again.
This time, Xu Xiwang and Su Yueyao were pinned down.
The python opened its blood-red maw and lunged at Xu Xiwang and Su Yueyao.
As the python drew ever closer, Su Yueyao closed her eyes, looking utterly desperate.
This time, I'm definitely going to die!
However, after waiting for a long time, I still didn't feel any pain.
Su Yueyao opened her eyes and found that she had not been bitten by the python.
She looked up and saw Xu Xiwang.
Xu Xiwang pierced the python's head with a single shot, pinning it to death in the darkness.
"Yueyao, don't you have so many treasures? Take some out for self-defense."
"Most of my treasures are heavy weapons like rockets. I'm afraid that if I launch one, it might collapse the lab, and then we'd both be buried inside."
Seeing Su Yueyao's aggrieved expression, Xu Xiwang was both amused and exasperated.
"We've been traveling for so long and haven't seen any treasures, but we've seen a whole bunch of monsters. We don't even know if there are any treasures here."
"There should be. In the past few months, I've heard several groups of adventurers and mercenaries say they're coming here to find a huge treasure, priceless."
The two continued on their way, encountering many small mutated monsters along the way, all of which Xu Xiwang easily dealt with.
Upon reaching the end, they discovered that it connected to a huge venue.
It was filled with all sorts of instruments.
Most importantly, these instruments are still running!
Su Yueyao stared at the instruments with some surprise, wondering why this laboratory, which had been abandoned for ten years, showed no signs of decay.
Su Yueyao was about to step forward to investigate when Xu Xiwang stopped her.
Xu Xiwang grabbed Su Yueyao's arm and whispered:
"Be careful, it might be a trap."
Su Yueyao nodded and followed Xu Xiwang into the hall.
As soon as Su Yueyao entered the hall, she felt a little dizzy.
She rubbed her temples and then discovered a luminous pearl in the hall, emitting a soft blue glow.
"Yueyao, I have a very strange feeling."
Xu Xiwang frowned and said, "It seems like there's an invisible hand controlling all of this. The instruments here aren't damaged at all, as if they've been precisely calculated."
Upon hearing this, Su Yueyao's expression changed. "We can't leave here, otherwise we'll be controlled by that invisible hand."
"What should we do?"
Su Yueyao shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either.
She glanced at the instruments around her, thought of the Hulk she had encountered before, and then thought of the strange events happening here, and a sense of foreboding washed over her.
"Yueyao, what's wrong?"
Xu Xiwang asked, puzzled.
"fine."
Su Yueyao shook her head, her mind a jumbled mess, unsure of what to do next.
"The equipment in this hall has seven mechanisms in total. If you press them randomly, it will self-destruct."
Xu Xiwang scanned the entire hall with the device and said something that shocked Su Yueyao.
Seven agencies?
"But this also means that there really is a crucial treasure here!"
Just then, Xu Xiwang noticed that behind the huge black glass in front of them, it seemed as if a pair of crimson eyes were staring at the two of them!
Xu Xiwang felt a chill run down his spine, his heart pounded, and a nameless fear surged through him. He instinctively took a few steps back.
"Xu Xiwang, are you alright?"
Seeing Xu Xiwang's tense expression, Su Yueyao said with some concern.
"Look at that glass."
Su Yueyao looked for a while and said, "There's nothing there!"
As soon as Su Yueyao finished speaking, she felt the scene in front of her change instantly, and a row of instruments appeared in front of her.
Where exactly is this place? Why are there so many instruments here, and what do they represent?
Su Yueyao looked at Xu Xiwang beside her.
Xu Xiwang was also studying the instruments in front of him.
"Yueyao, this should be the core of that treasure. All the instruments here are set up according to certain rules. I suspect..."
Xu Xiwang paused for a moment, then continued, "This laboratory is a super-large gene-based pharmaceutical factory."
"What? All of these instruments belong to the gene-producing factory?"
