The overhead light was a stark white, and the surrounding walls were snow-white, as if everything around was white. Only Lin Ruo, who was standing there, and the corpse lying on the ground were dressed in black, and this blackness was particularly prominent at this moment.
The sound of hurried footsteps came quickly from ahead. In the echoing corridor, the sound was amplified, and Lin Ruo even felt a slight tremor from the ground.
Judging from the sound, there must be a lot of people coming. Lin Ruo had been paying attention to the surrounding situation with her mental energy. She noticed the movement of the superhumans outside immediately. Now, hearing these footsteps, the corners of her mouth curled up.
More and more superhumans ran over from the surrounding area. They were all wearing black combat suits and were all members of the hunting team.
Thinking about these people's behavior of capturing people with superpowers everywhere, and then thinking about those people whose brains were cut open in the laboratory that I just saw, those people were not even given anesthesia, how painful it must have been.
Although these people had no idea about the secret, they were ultimately accomplices in evil, capturing many innocent superhumans.
A dark light flashed in her eyes, and her hands, which were hanging at her sides, moved. A blue light flashed and disappeared in her palms.
Before the superhumans who rushed over even reached the laboratory door, a powerful stream of water, as thick as a water tank, shot out from the door and rushed towards them. Sensing the powerful superhuman energy emanating from the water, none of them dared to be careless. They all activated their superhuman shields to defend themselves and retreated at the same time.
The water stream split into countless tiny streams in the air, each colliding with the superhumans. Each stream was only as thick as a finger and seemed to have little physical strength and little impact force. However, when the water streams hit their shields, the shields did not provide any protection at all.
These streams of water actually seeped through the shield's energy and continued to lash out at them. Many of the superhumans only had time to scream before being thrown back by the water, knocked down hard. They hadn't expected such thin streams of water to have such a powerful impact.
The water did not scatter due to the impact; instead, it used the force of the impact to rush into their bodies. It did not stay in their bodies but immediately passed through them and crashed into the next target.
The water that had seeped through the bodies of these superhumans seemed to be drawn away by the water flow, and the water in their bodies left along with the strange flow. So the moment they were thrown away, they quickly became shriveled corpses.
These shriveled corpses flew backwards against the surrounding walls, making a series of tooth-ache-inducing, bone-dislocating sounds.
Seeing this, the other ability users behind them dared not rush forward and all began to retreat, their eyes filled with fear. They couldn't think of anyone else besides Lin Ruo and the others who could do such a bizarre water manipulation ability. Could it be that she was the one who broke into the laboratory?
Sure enough, as everyone in front of them fell down, a black figure came into their view. They immediately felt a chill run down their spines and their scalps tingled!
Good heavens! How did this scourge get into their base?! No wonder the alarm kept going off; they must have detected this ancestor's arrival!
Lin Ruo only revealed a glimpse of herself, yet it was enough to make them retreat recklessly. Almost the instant they saw her, they turned and ran away. Seeing Lin Ruo ahead, why would they rush forward? Were they going to charge in and die?!
"Stop pushing forward, Lin Ruo is in front! Run!"
The people at the back froze as they pushed forward after hearing a shout from one of the ability users in front. They turned and ran without even bothering to investigate further. A single name was enough to make them flee, even though they were all carrying crystal energy guns. They never thought these things could work on Lin Ruo.
But the water flow seemed unwilling to let the superhumans go, rapidly reaping their lives. As more and more water gathered, the water flow became thicker and thicker. When there was enough water, it would automatically split into two streams and rush towards the crowd in front again.
"Run!"
Lin Ruo manipulated the water flow and dug out the crystal cores of these superhumans, as well as the crystal energy guns that had fallen on the ground. These were all valuable items, and she put them all into her backpack. Fortunately, her hiking backpack had some capacity, otherwise it wouldn't have been able to hold them all.
At the same time, she also noticed that many of the superhumans in the solitary confinement cells had heard the commotion outside and were looking out through the small glass window on the door. When they saw Lin Ruo, their eyes lit up with surprise, and they kept banging on the iron door that imprisoned them, trying to remind Lin Ruo of their location.
Lin Ruo pursed her lips. Although she didn't know whether these superhumans were good or bad, they shouldn't continue to be used as experimental subjects. She expanded her spatial domain, and those tightly locked doors were instantly opened.
At the same time, all the superhumans felt a sudden pain in their heads, as if something had stabbed their brains, and their previously uncontrollable superhuman abilities were immediately usable again.
Before they could even feel happy, the person who had saved them had already disappeared.
"Everyone, hurry! We must escape this hellhole!"
Large numbers of superhumans who hadn't seen Lin Ruo ran out of the confinement room. When they reached the outside of the laboratory, they saw the shriveled corpse lying on the ground. It was obvious who had done this.
"Quick! Sister Ruo is just ahead. With her there, we'll definitely get out of here!"
"Quick, everyone, keep up!"
But how could they possibly keep up with Lin Ruo's speed? Lin Ruo killed many of the hunting team's ability users in this laboratory. By the time she left the laboratory, she had already teleported away and disappeared. When she reappeared, she had already hidden herself in the base office building on the lowest floor.
Meanwhile, chaos reigned in the office building as the base commander and deputy base commander suddenly died. Those superhumans who had long harbored ambitions naturally hoped to become the next base commander, and the struggle had begun.
Lin Ruo blended into the crowd and made his way to the base commander's office. The body was no longer in the office, but the scene had not been cleaned up yet, and there were still some bloodstains on the floor, which should belong to the base commander.
The office files had all been moved. Lin Ru frowned. There were definitely no clues left. This was truly her worst operation yet.
She searched the office for a long time but found no useful information, so she turned around and left the base.
As for whether the people she rescued could escape the base, that was beyond her consideration. She had done what she could, and the rest was up to their own fate. She couldn't help them much more.
