High temperature stimulates potential. It’s so interesting. I don’t know who taught this.
Cheng Yu narrowed his eyes, sweat slid down his cheeks, dripping onto the hot floor and instantly turning into steam.
"You may not understand your potential." Lessos's expression was enthusiastic, as if he was worshipping a priceless work of art. "Tearstone is nothing. Your wings are the most useful."
A trace of disdain flashed across Cheng Yu's violet eyes. He raised the corners of his mouth and sneered, "Just you?"
Lessos stood not far away, looking at him through the explosion-proof glass, a crazy smile on his face: "You should feel honored. This is a gift from God, and you should serve this world."
god?
Cheng Yu remembered a sentence he heard on TV, what was it called.
The end of science is metaphysics.
Cheng Yu lowered his eyelids slightly, and his violet eyes glowed with a cold light in the hot and distorted air.
He licked his cracked lips, his tone carrying a hint of nonchalant sarcasm: "You're crazy, get out of here."
Bai Luoqi taught him.
Used to insult people.
He also learned other things and will look for other opportunities.
Cheng Yu slowly raised his handcuffed wrist and moved it slightly, and the iron chain immediately made a teeth-grinding twisting sound.
Lessos remained unmoved and winked at his assistant.
But there was still a calm smile on the corner of his mouth.
He is waiting.
The rune chains on the wall lit up with a dazzling red light, and the whole room seemed to be placed in a furnace.
The high temperature light made it impossible for Cheng Chengyu to open his eyes. He slowly raised his handcuffed wrists and moved them slightly. The iron chain then made a teeth-grinding twisting sound.
Seeing this, Lessos sneered: "Don't waste your energy. This is a high-density binding metal. No matter how strong you are—"
"Snap—" Before he could finish his words, a crisp breaking sound interrupted him.
Lessos's smile froze on his face. He stared in disbelief at the chain on Cheng Yu's wrist, which had been torn apart by the intense heat and immense force, turning into a pile of charred metal fragments.
Cheng Yu flexed his wrist and looked at Lesos with cold eyes.
Lesos's smile finally disappeared completely.
He suddenly pressed the button on the console, and the temperature in the room soared again, even the metal pillars were roasted red.
Cheng Yu stretched his stiff neck and felt the water in his body evaporating rapidly. Every cell in his body was screaming in pain.
Lessos watched all this through the explosion-proof glass, the smile on his face gradually widening.
“High temperatures will stimulate your potential and maximize your body’s defense mechanisms. The dormant power in your body will also be awakened in extreme environments.
The skin temperature on the surface of the body gradually rises, and the flowing sweat acts like a natural cooling device, constantly evaporating and expelling excess heat from the body.
However, this passive heat dissipation method is far from enough to resist the erosion of the surrounding high temperature environment.
Reaching out to wipe the sweat off his face, he had a premonition that he would never die here.
In the heat, his body began to change.
His muscle fibers began to tense, his capillaries expanded, and the blood flow in his heart increased significantly. Like a latent torrent, driven by some invisible force, it began to challenge his limits.
He closed his eyes and stopped forcing down the burning sensation that was trying to tear his body apart, letting it seep into his flesh and blood and merge into his soul.
When Cheng Yu opened his eyes again, there was bloodthirsty excitement in his violet eyes: "Is this what you want?" His voice was low, with an oppressive feeling that could not be ignored.
A violent impact erupted from Cheng Yu's body, and the explosion-proof glass instantly shattered into pieces, turning into countless fragments flying around, and the sharp sound of cracking echoed in the laboratory.
The explosion-proof glass shattered, and the glass fragments penetrated deeply into the skin of Lessos's face.
Cheng Yu walked out of the confinement room, her violet eyes staring at him coldly, her fiery red wings flapping gently, bringing up a scorching heat wave.
"Lesos," Cheng Yu's voice was calm, yet the chill in it was hard to ignore. "Come and get it if you can."
Lessos slumped to the ground, the bloodstains on his face piercing the broken glass looking horrifying.
He watched in horror as Cheng Yu approached him step by step, and with trembling hands he supported his body and tried to retreat, but the control console behind him blocked his way.
His hands frantically fumbled for the buttons on the console, and his voice, trembling but sharp, echoed in the laboratory: "Kill him! At any cost!"
As long as they kill Cheng Yu, this pair of wings will be enough to support them to live for a long time.
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding walls began to shake, and hidden weapons and devices slowly rose from all sides.
Several black metal automatic weapons were suspended in the air, with their muzzles pointed directly at Cheng Yu. The red laser aiming lines moved across his body like a hunter's gaze.
"Interesting." Cheng Yu glanced at these weapons and sneered. There was no fear in his violet eyes, but rather a hint of contempt.
"Buzz—"
The sound of weapons charging could be heard in the air, and the muzzles of the guns around them lit up with dazzling blue light at the same time, with the blazing energy ready to be unleashed.
"Cheng Yu!" Lesos shouted with a frenzied look in his eyes, "Don't even think you can escape! This is a newly designed nano-high-temperature weapon, specially prepared for you! Your wings and your blood belong to us..."
Before he finished speaking, a crimson light suddenly burst out from behind Cheng Yu. His fiery red wings flapped violently, bringing up a gust of hot air that directly swept the two weapons in front away and slammed heavily into the wall of the laboratory, turning into a ball of wreckage with sparks flying everywhere.
The remaining weapons reacted quickly, instantly locking onto the target and spewing out dense energy bombs.
Cheng Yu slightly turned sideways, spread his fiery red wings, and nimbly avoided the oncoming attack.
His figure shuttled through the laboratory, and every flap of his wings brought with it a sharp heat wave and awe-inspiring momentum.
A suspended weapon was trying to adjust its direction, but was caught by Cheng Yu at an extremely fast speed.
He squeezed it hard, and the hard metal shell deformed directly. He then threw it towards the remaining weapons, triggering a chain explosion.
"boom--"
The laboratory ceiling collapsed from the shock, and fire and smoke filled the air. Lessoth could only huddle behind the console and frantically hit another set of buttons.
"Activate reinforcements! Activate all automatic devices!" he roared, his voice distorted with fear.
The next second, the door deep in the laboratory opened with a bang, and a team of soldiers wearing reinforced armor came out one after another.
Cheng Yu stood in the middle of the ruins. He didn't rush to attack, but tilted his head slightly and said nonchalantly: "Just you guys?"
The soldiers in the front row did not respond, and all weapons were locked on Cheng Yu's figure at the same time.
Accompanied by a mechanical prompt sound, the energy cannon emitted a dazzling light, and dozens of blazing blue beams rushed straight towards it.
