Peerless: After traveling through time, who would still want to be Tang San's son-in-law?

Chapter 222 Interrogation
The huge spatial fluctuations even directly broke the distortion of space caused by Huo Yuhao's simulated soul skills. For a moment, Huo Yuhao's simulated soul skills showed signs of failure.

Fortunately, the burst of blue light did not last too long. When the light converged, Huo Yuhao immediately restored the stealth effect of the simulated soul skill. As if he thought of something, Huo Yuhao felt the fluctuations of the battle above, gritted his teeth and recited a rough and mysterious spell, and a pitch-black door rose out of thin air.

Without hesitation, Huo Yuhao immediately threw the Starlight Sapphire into the Undead Demiplane, then suddenly dispersed the portal to the Undead Demiplane and rushed out of the corridor in stealth. Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, and his heart rate was still rapidly increasing.

This was the first time for Huo Yuhao, who had always been abiding by the rules, to steal something. It was a really exciting feeling. Moreover, what he stole was a product at the forefront of the world’s scientific research today, and it was also a prerequisite skill point that could be converted into two major combat power amplifiers, battle armor and mecha, in the future.

While running along the corridor, Huo Yuhao suddenly slowed down, jumped straight onto the wall, and held on to the ceiling tightly with his limbs.

Just three seconds later, chaotic footsteps were heard, and the next moment, a group of people from the Body Sect dressed in black hurriedly passed by Huo Yuhao from behind.

Even though he had simulated soul skills to cover up all auras at this moment, Huo Yuhao still subconsciously held his breath. Once discovered, he would most likely be taken back to the Body Sect.

"How was it? How much did you collect?"

"Reporting to the Sect Master, we have almost collected the data from most of the laboratories in the core area."

"Yeah, that's good. When the time comes to collect the bounty, the other materials can be sold in batches for a lot of money."

"Master, why do you think they would spend hundreds of millions of gold soul coins to offer a reward for some paper?"

"What do you know? Even if it's waste paper, it's Mingdetang's latest research data before it's sold, understand? As for what's inside, it's none of our business."

"Yes, Sect Master."

Seeing the people from the Body Sect gradually walking away, Huo Yuhao finally breathed a sigh of relief. He followed the passage he had come down through and went back to the Mingde Hall, lifted up the table and crawled out.

Mingde Hall.

Standing in the underground base, Jing Hongchen almost broke his steel teeth. What he saw in front of him could only be described as shocking.

The entire underground base was like a field that had just been turned over before sowing. It was a mess everywhere. Less than one-third of the expensive lab tables were still intact, and most of them were damaged beyond recognition. Various rare metals were seen everywhere, and the underground base was completely in tatters.

In addition, due to the fierce impact and the impact of Mingde Hall's construction on the underground structure, the underground base has begun to become unstable due to the shock of previous high-intensity battles, and collapse is not impossible.

If only the underground buildings were lost, Jing Hongchen could have endured it with gritted teeth. What was more critical was that a large number of soul mentors had died. You know, some projects can only be studied by the researchers themselves.

Even the remote monitoring soul guide developed by the eighth-level soul master Xuan Ziwen had not been successfully analyzed and imitated by even a ninth-level soul master before it was simplified.

With the death of such a large number of soul guides, many research directions of Mingde Hall may even be cut off!

"Master." Lin Jiayi came to Jing Hongchen with a trembling voice. He lowered his head and did not dare to look at him.

"What's the situation?" Jing Hongchen tried his best to calm himself down.

Lin Jiayi lowered his head and said, "The situation at the warehouse is fine. Nothing is lost. All the high-level soul guides stored are in place."

After hearing what he said, Jing Hongchen breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he was a little confused. What was there in Mingde Hall that was worthy of those guys from the Body Sect to invade with all their strength?
"But..." The two words Lin Jiayi said made Jing Hongchen's heart tighten again.

Jing Hongchen suddenly turned around, looked at his capable subordinate, gritted his teeth and said, "But what? Don't hesitate, just say it clearly."

Lin Jiayi gritted his teeth and said in a trembling voice: "However, all the information in the data room was stolen, and most of the information in the core area was not spared."

"what!"

Jing Hongchen felt his vision go dark, and almost fell down when his body swayed. Lin Jiayi hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

Data room, data room!
How did those idiots from the Body Sect think of attacking the data room? Although the data room did not store the most advanced batch of soul guide equipment data, it covered all the soul guide equipment data accumulated by the Sun-Moon Empire for thousands of years, just to make it convenient for the soul guides of Mingde Hall to check the data whenever they need it.

In addition, once the information about the core area is obtained by a force with sufficient manpower and material resources, the gap between them and the Sun-Moon Empire in soul guides can be reduced from hundreds of years to decades or even smaller with the help of this information.

"Except...except this..."

Lin Jiayi swallowed his saliva and said in a trembling voice: "Experimental subject No. 1 is missing, Hall Master."

"Wow--!"

Jing Hongchen suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.

"Hall Master? Hall Master!"

Lin Jiayi looked at Jing Hongchen who vomited blood and fainted, and was at a loss for a moment.

Because the unconscious Jing Hongchen is no longer the fat and short guy he used to be, but instead looks tall and handsome, with a vague style of Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen (the opposite of Tiangang).

After all, he was a Titled Douluo. Even though he was distracted for a moment due to the fire attack, he soon regained consciousness and stood up. Jing Hongchen trembled and ordered:
"Jia Yi, pass on my order. Everyone present today must keep their mouths shut. Anyone who dares to spread what happened today will be killed without mercy."

"Send people to all major auction houses, including ours, to keep an eye on all high-end auctions. If Subject No. 1 appears, immediately buy it back at all costs."

"In the name of Mingde Hall, we are issuing killing missions to all mercenary guilds and assassin guilds. We are offering a high reward for the heads of all members of the Benti Sect."

At this point, Jing Hongchen paused for a moment and said, "Except for the injured Mingde Hall disciples, all healthy members of the Mingde Hall are in emergency mobilization mode and must repair the underground base as soon as possible at all costs. Tell the elders to rebuild the defense of the Mingde Hall. There cannot be any blind spots. Do you understand?"

"Yes." Lin Jiayi quickly agreed. Seeing Jing Hongchen regain his composure, he felt relieved.

On the other side, Huo Yuhao followed the crowd and fled Mingde Hall after the attack, walking outside leisurely.

There was no surveillance camera capturing his whereabouts. Even if the tunnel he dug showed that he had been to the tunnel that led into the Body Sect, as long as there was no evidence to prove that he had taken it, even if they suspected him, they could do nothing to him.

After all, Moon is still alive. If he really attacks Huo Yuhao, Jing Hongchen might want to experience the scene of an Extreme Douluo breaking into Mingde Hall.
