In the vast laboratory, the chilling atmosphere dissipated as the person left. Only then did the people in the laboratory dare to breathe freely, their violently heaving chests revealing the true emotions of their owner.
Fang Minglei, as the person in charge of this laboratory, has become a nightmare for everyone here. Many of these researchers could no longer support their bodies and collapsed to the ground, their faces showing expressions of relief.
After Fang Minglei left the laboratory, he was summoned to the base's office building before he could even go to another laboratory.
The base's director is a female superhuman—Li Rao.
She was dressed in a slightly tight black combat suit, leaning back in her office chair, manipulating a silver-white metal ball in her hand. The metal ball kept changing shape in her hand, but Li Rao's eyes were not on the metal ball in her hand. She stared blankly in the direction of the office door.
Until the man who had just displayed such prowess in the lab walked into the office.
"Tsk." Li Rao immediately noticed Fang Minglei's gloomy face, and a sarcastic smile curled at the corner of her lips. "How many did you kill this time?"
Fang Minglei glanced at Li Rao, his eyes showing no emotion, and then silently turned and sat on the sofa in the base, staring at her.
Li Rao rolled her eyes, and with a flick of her wrist, the silver-white metal ball in her hand instantly transformed into a silver tray. The tray floated in mid-air, and the woman glanced to the side. A thin silver thread immediately shot out, hooking the documents on the table onto the tray, which then floated in the air and slowly flew to Fang Minglei's side.
She raised her chin. "Look, Professor."
Fang Minglei glanced at the woman before picking up the documents from the tray. His calm eyes behind his glasses suddenly stood up and his expression changed when he saw the contents of the documents.
When did this happen?
The document clearly contained information about the western mountain peak of City B, detailing the entire process of the destruction of the western mountain peak base. Although their people dared not appear in City B now and were unaware of the current situation in City B, they had secretly planted cameras in the western mountain peak before, so their organization was still very clear about everything that happened on the western mountain peak.
Li Rao flicked her fingers in the air, and the silver metal that was just a tray instantly transformed into a long silver chain that flew towards her and hung on her fingertip.
"I just received the news. As you know, our location is remote, so news is often delayed," she paused before continuing, "The base in City B should have already taken some action. If an experiment like ours is exposed, it will definitely be targeted and attacked."
Fang Minglei's eyes lingered on the last few lines of text for a long time, which clearly stated how headquarters had resolved the matter.
He always knew the organization was cautious, and the facts proved that the organization's caution was correct. So even people at their level had never met the real boss behind the scenes, just in case things were exposed.
But he also had to say that the people in the organization were cold-blooded. From the moment they discovered Lin Ruo on the radar, the organization began to purge that base because they knew that the base's military strength was no match for Lin Ruo. If they didn't clean it up quickly, they would all be wiped out.
While it's one thing to understand rationally, seeing the organization ruthlessly eliminate all those in the know at the base still makes one's heart tighten. One can't help but wonder if their base would suffer the same fate if it were discovered.
Seeing Fang Minglei remain silent, staring only at the last page of the document, Li Rao had no idea what he was thinking. She smiled sarcastically, "No need to look, no need to think, it's bound to end the same way."
"Compared to Zhou Fang and Wang Ruojing, we are the ones who are not favored by the organization. They can be eliminated without hesitation, let alone us."
Fang Minglei tightened his grip on the documents. Yes, although these experimental sites all worked for the organization, their status within the organization was different. Zhou Fang and Wang Ruojing were well-connected in the organization, and their usual material support was much greater than that of their base. If people like them could be abandoned without hesitation, what would happen to them?
“Recently, everyone in our base should try not to go out,” Li Rao said with a wave of her hand. The silver metal she was playing with immediately wrapped around her waist and turned into a beautiful belt. “Although we don’t know why Lin Ruo found them, we can’t rule out the possibility that she will continue to investigate. We have all heard about her methods. If we don’t want to get caught up in her schemes, we’d better keep our tails hidden.”
“But this time the test subject won’t work either,” Fang Minglei bit his lip, but still made up his mind, “We can’t let the experiment stop, we still need to think of a way to find a test subject.”
Li Rao's face turned cold. "Do you know how tense the situation is right now? The B City base and the C City base have been completely sealed off. Although we don't know their reasons for the sealing off, at this critical juncture, it's hard to guarantee that they haven't discovered something. If they really have discovered something, we'll all be in deep trouble when they investigate. We have to keep a low profile now, and you still want me to go and catch test subjects for you? Are you trying to get us all killed?"
Fang Minglei knew that capturing experimental subjects at this time would easily attract attention from all sides, but there were indeed not many experimental subjects left in the base. "Do you mean to temporarily suspend the base's experiments?"
Li Rao withdrew her gaze from Fang Minglei and turned to look at the base where the surroundings could only be seen by the light. They spent all day hiding in this dark place, and it was one thing to work hard for this experiment, but now that they knew their lives were threatened, who could still persevere for this?
