I am getting stronger and stronger in the world of demons and monsters

Speaking of which,

The elderly man with white hair still seemed somewhat uneasy.

His expression gradually turned serious. He straightened up and looked at the disaster victims who had gathered around him.
“You must remember this.”
Either you don't have to work, or if you do work, you should work honestly and diligently!

Mr. Lin and Mr. Han Liu are incredibly powerful, so don't even think about hiding anything from them while you're packing!
Otherwise, it would definitely be discovered.

You've all seen Mr. Lin Kong's methods; he can kill hundreds of incredibly powerful gene warriors with a wave of his hand!

Everyone, please remember to tidy up diligently and work honestly. That's how you truly thank Mr. Lin and Mr. Han Liu!

"After we've finished packing, I'll do a tally, then Xiao Lu and I will go into the Gene Warrior Hall to see Captain Malone."

This elderly man with white hair, though advanced in years, was not in very good physical condition.

However, his voice was quite strong, and even though he wasn't a genetic warrior, he still possessed a certain air of authority.

Moreover, he was extremely familiar with the names of Lin Xuankong, Han Liu, Ma Long, and others, which clearly indicates that he had close contact with gene warriors and auxiliary security team members.

From this perspective, he was likely a high-ranking person who had managed many people before the Stone City Beast Disaster, which is why he knew Vice Captain Malone and others! It's estimated that he was too old and frail to have the opportunity to become an auxiliary security team member at Shelter 36. In addition, because he was too old, he never had the opportunity to take the YZMM gene serum!
Among the disaster victims who gathered around,

Clearly, many people knew this old man Zhuge, and they all nodded after hearing his explanation.

Xiao Lu looked around, glanced at the surroundings a few times, and then spoke:

“Old Hu, you dozen or so, come over here. Back when you were auxiliary security team members, you actually took care of us secretly. It's just that on the surface you had to stick with Xu Chong and his buddies and obey their orders! We can tell right from wrong, and we won't retaliate against you!”

Upon hearing this, the man named Lao Hu's tense expression relaxed somewhat.
The dozen or so auxiliary security guards around him also secretly lowered their hands from reaching for the stun guns at their waists, and then followed Lao Hu toward the man called Xiao Lu.

After all the Dragon Elephant Gene Warriors died, these auxiliary security team members were most worried about being caught in the crossfire and suffering retaliation from the disaster victims. Now that they saw that the disaster victims were most resentful of Xu Chong and his group, and did not treat them, the auxiliary security team members, the same as Xu Chong and his group, they were finally relieved.

In the underground prison room on the first basement level of the gene warrior training hall,

Lin Xuankong personally unlocked the alloy chains binding Vice Captain You Rui, and Vice Captain Ma Long breathed a sigh of relief. "Captain You, it's such a relief that you weren't harmed by that Xu Rong! It's also fortunate that Mr. Lin Kong and Mr. Han Liu arrived in time and took down Xu Rong, who was causing trouble at Shelter No. 36!"

Vice Captain You Rui was already somewhat surprised when she saw Lin Xuankong and the others break into the underground prison cell. Now, hearing what Vice Captain Ma Long said, a look of astonishment appeared on her charming and pretty face.

"Captain Malone, what did you say?"
Xu Rong was killed?

You're saying Xu Rong is dead?

And he was killed by Lin Kong and Han Liu?

Before Vice Captain Ma Long could speak, Han Liu burst out laughing, "Captain You Rui, she wasn't killed by Teacher Lin Kong and me, it was Teacher Lin Kong who single-handedly and instantly killed Xu Rong!"

Vice Captain You Rui already knew that Lin Xuankong's cultivation speed was astonishing and that he was already a top-tier ninth-order elemental gene warrior before leaving Shelter 36. Upon hearing Han Liu's words, her expression immediately changed, and she activated her gene ability to look closely at Lin Xuankong.

The next moment, Vice Captain You Rui exclaimed, "It's only been twenty-odd days since we last met, and you're already a top-tier eighth-level elemental gene warrior?"

Lin Xuankong smiled and said, "Captain You is already a top-tier eighth-level Dragon Elephant Gene Warrior!"

With the lines of large, purple-gold characters proclaiming "Old but still vigorous," Lin Xuankong naturally knew that Vice Captain You Rui had long since become a top-tier eighth-order elemental gene warrior.

Vice Captain You Rui looked at Lin Xuankong and Han Liu with surprise in her beautiful eyes, and couldn't help but say, "You two are already top-level eighth-tier gene warriors. It's really too surprising. Even when Lin Haoyun, the strongest in our Tang Kingdom, was at the lower level of life, he didn't have such a fast rate of strength improvement as you two. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that there are gene warriors in this world who can improve their strength so quickly!"

At this point, Vice Captain You Rui seemed to have thought of something and continued to ask:
“Something’s not right. Even if you two are already top-tier eighth-order gene warriors, one of you being an elemental gene warrior and the other a material gene warrior, it would still be difficult for you to win against more than a hundred fully armed dragon-elephant gene warriors, against so many automatic weapons, and against Xu Rong, who is also at the top-tier eighth-order life level!”

How did you two manage to do that? Tell me!

Han Liu laughed and said, "Captain You, you are our guide in the genetic pathway. Whatever you want to hear, I, Han Liu, will definitely tell you without reservation. However, shouldn't we leave this cell and go to your office first? This is not a good place to chat!"

After a while,

Inside Vice Captain You Rui's office,

After listening to Ma Long and Han Liu's stories, You Rui remained silent for a long time before finally speaking:

"Actually, I have long been disgusted by the actions of Xu Rong and Xu Chong. With the help of those gene warriors who have also twisted their bottom line, these two have done countless evil deeds to satisfy their perverted desires! I only regret that my strength is insufficient and I have never had a good solution. I can only endure and cultivate like crazy, hoping to surpass Xu Rong's strength as soon as possible!"

Unfortunately, on the very day I stepped into the top level of the eighth-order life level, Xu Rong mobilized the entire power of Shelter Thirty-Six.
"This seemingly righteous captain, humph, he actually wants to get the reason why my strength has increased so rapidly from me. That's why he didn't kill me directly, but tried to coerce and bribe me into telling him the method for rapid strength improvement!" Lin Xuankong and Han Liu exchanged glances upon hearing this. Han Liu winked at Lin Xuankong. This guy with messy hair had obviously figured out that it was Lin Xuankong who had made him and Han Bao's strength increase so rapidly, so the reason why this Vice Captain You Rui's strength had increased so rapidly was probably also because of some special genetic ability of Lin Xuankong!
However, Han Liu would never say such a thing directly, since it was simply too shocking!
Vice Captain Ma Long glanced at Lin Xuankong, then at Han Liu, and then at You Rui, frowning as he muttered in a low voice, "The speed at which the three of you have improved is indeed astonishing. Now that Xu Rong knows that Captain You Rui, you have suddenly risen from the mid-stage of the eighth rank to the top level of the eighth rank, he will definitely try his best to find out the reason!"

Vice Captain You Rui sighed softly, "Actually, I don't understand why my life level has improved so quickly. Even if Xu Rong really wanted to kill me, I wouldn't be able to explain why!"

At this point, Vice Captain You Rui looked at Lin Xuankong and Han Liu.
Lin Xuankong and Han Liu spoke in unison:

"I don't understand why my level of life has advanced so quickly!"

"I, Han Liu, don't understand why either. I was planning to ask Captain You Rui about it when I came back this time!"

Upon hearing this, Vice Captain Ma Long paused, a look of doubt on his face.

You Rui looked speechless.

After chatting for a while,

Vice Captain You Rui frowned and looked at Lin Xuankong, then said:

"You've actually awakened the Water Drainage Technique, which once shook the entire continent. With this genetic ability, you don't need to worry about the consequences of killing Xu Rong at all. If word gets out, even if Commander Huang of the Stone City Ruins finds out the truth about you killing Xu Rong, he will definitely stand by your side and will increase the supply of materials to Shelter Thirty-Six in the future, just to curry favor with you! After all, an elemental gene warrior who possesses the Water Drainage Technique has an absolutely limitless future!"
The only thing you need to worry about is...

The news that you possess the genetic ability of water manipulation might attract the attention of some secret spies in Yunqin Kingdom, thereby drawing the threat of powerful figures from Yunqin Kingdom!

In my opinion, it would be better to completely block the news that you have the gene ability to draw water, and not to spread the news of your ability to Shelter No. 1 in the Ruins of Stone City for the time being!

"In the meantime, I'll contact Shelter One to temporarily suppress the news of Xu Rong's murder. This will give you more time to prepare calmly!"

At this point, Vice Captain You Rui glanced at Vice Captain Ma Long almost imperceptibly.

For Vice Captain You Rui, the fact that the refugees in Shelter 36 knew about Xu Rong's death wasn't a big deal, since they had no way to contact other shelters or spread any news from there. However, Vice Captain Ma Long was different; he even had the ability to traverse some of the ruins of Stone City to reach other shelters and deliver the news.
After seeing You Rui finish speaking, Ma Long suddenly looked at him, his expression changed, and he decisively said, "Captain You, don't look at me. We've worked together for two years, Captain You should know me very well!"

Han Liu then spoke up, "After we returned this time, Vice Captain Ma Long was unaware of Lin Shi's and my strength. He was originally prepared to fight Xu Rong and the others to the death, giving us a chance to escape! Captain You, we can doubt others and prevent them from accessing the external communication equipment, but Vice Captain Ma Long is absolutely trustworthy! In addition, even the news that you, Vice Captain You Rui, were defeated and imprisoned by Xu Rong was told to us by Vice Captain Ma Long!"

He recounted what happened after he returned to Vault 36.
After listening, You Rui couldn't help but sigh. "Although most gene warriors have long lost their nature due to their immense power, there are still a few gene warriors who still have some basic human decency. However, such gene warriors are true loners in the gene warrior organizations of this world today, constantly feeling out of place and tormented by their inner struggles!"

When Malone heard her say this, he couldn't help but sigh and shake his head, saying, "In fact, which genetic warrior didn't rise from an ordinary person to a higher level of life? And which genetic warrior's parents weren't ordinary people? Unfortunately, too many genetic warriors no longer care about these things, and even deliberately make themselves forget them. The pleasure brought by power and position has long since made most genetic warriors prisoners of power and position!"

Some genetic warriors from the Yunqin Kingdom even made a statement,
Gene warriors who cultivate to the end can obtain an eternal and noble life!
Most of the genetically engineered warriors have already accepted these words from the bottom of their hearts; they will certainly no longer consider themselves the same race as ordinary people!

"Prisoners of power and authority!"

Han Liu repeated a sentence, then looked at Deputy Captain Ma, "Ha, I didn't expect that Deputy Captain Ma, with his full beard, would have such a philosophical way of speaking?"

Upon hearing this, Vice Captain Malone couldn't help but give a wry smile.

Vice Captain You Rui ignored Han Liu's teasing of Ma Long and instead looked at Lin Xuankong, frowning as she said:

"Lin Kong, although I haven't had much contact with you, I have a feeling that your personal goals and pursuits are far more ambitious than the rest of us!"
In my opinion, now that you've returned to Vault 36, why not establish your own power base here and develop it rapidly from here!
Now that you possess the almost superhuman genetic ability of water manipulation, the Stone City Ruins, a place that is quite dangerous for other genetic warriors, are actually full of resources for you!

You can obtain a large amount of source beast flesh and blood from the ruins of this stone city, refine SW alloy from it, and develop a large quantity of YZMM gene potions. This will allow you to turn more refugees into your gene warriors. When the time is right, you can even use your superior numbers to hunt down seventh-tier source beasts, thereby obtaining seventh-tier source stone crystals and advancing to the seventh-tier life level!

Hunt down seventh-tier source beasts to establish power and acquire large quantities of YZMM gene serum!

Lin Xuankong looked at Vice Captain You Rui with slight surprise upon hearing her words, thinking to himself: If this charming and beautiful teacher You hadn't yet reached the seventh-order life level, I would have suspected that she had awakened some kind of gene ability to see through people's hearts!

"To refine large quantities of YZMM gene-modifying agents?"

Han Liu spoke with some surprise:

"Can the flesh and blood of the Source Beasts be used to extract YZMM gene potions?"

How do you refine it? Deputy Captain You, do you know how to refine this YZMM gene serum?

If it could be refined, wouldn't Vault 36 achieve gene serum freedom, resulting in a surge of gene warriors?

Vice Captain You Rui raised her eyebrows and said:

"The extraction of YZMM gene serum is extremely complex, and I naturally do not know how to extract it. However, I know that there is a biologist in this Vault 36 who has mastered this technology!"
This biologist, having long known of the twisted mentality of most gene warriors, had remained hidden among the disaster victims, concealing his identity! Consequently, many believed he had perished in the Source Beast Disaster in Stone City, unaware that he was in Shelter Thirty-Six! (End of Chapter)
