Three Towers Game

Chapter 381 Reencounter with Prince Lian
The ant is about to collapse.

Actually, it's not just Xiaoyi; many people around are also affected by the radiation and are on the verge of collapse.

These people were experimental subjects; they had undergone numerous experiments.

These people came from Longxia, Qicheng, and most of them were from Hujiang.

They were originally healthy, but through repeated experiments, they became unrecognizable.

Xiao Yi is the most special one, at least for this boy named Lin Chuan Yuan.

Because he jokingly called himself Little Ant, and didn't even know who his parents were.

Rinchuan Yuan and Xiaoyi are both wanderers, people who barely survive in the post-apocalyptic era, wandering through streets full of strange tales and eerie creatures.

They were quite lucky; they always managed to survive.

They escaped the monsters' hunt, but not the humans.

Humans dressed in lab coats and wearing gas masks captured them and imprisoned them in this underground laboratory.

At first, Xiao Yi even thought it was a good idea; the nutrient tank would make her radiant and prevent her from becoming weak. They would also provide them with clean clothes.

She would be injected with various reagents, which initially made her feel full of power.

Her senses became sharper, and her movements became swifter. Gradually, they began to be moved to special wards.

The ward was more secure, making it difficult for them to breach.

Some people's bodies began to mutate, and the little ant was terrified. Of course, she knew that the nutrient tank, clean clothes, and suitable temperature were not free lunches.

All of these come at a price.

But what she feared even more were those inhumane experiments.

Some of the mutated individuals were initially "steamed" to death in high-temperature environments and never reappeared.

Some people were even frozen solid in extremely low temperatures, their bodies shattering like ice crystals.

Even tiny ants can hear these things.

The little ant itself also began to feel it.

Fortunately, she seems to have a very strong ability to survive extreme heat or cold, as well as various pain tests.

Each time, however, she would be injected with a new reagent.

People keep dying, and people keep joining.

The people here are not human at all, but experimental subjects. They don't even have names; they are just "consumables" as those in white coats call them.

The most unique consumable is Rinkawa Haruka.

Despite receiving injections of more than thirty different medications, Lin Chuanyuan did not mutate.

On one occasion, Rinkawa was even assigned to the nuclear room.

That was a room with severely excessive radiation levels.

Anyone who spends a night in that room will experience various abnormalities and ulcers on their body.

But Rinkawa was far from that.

One day, Xiao Yi overheard that those people in white coats were planning to dissect Rin Chuan Yuan. This terrified her.

Her only pillar of support was Rin Chuan Yuan.

After learning about this, Rinkawa Touya decided to lead everyone in a prison break.

They had been preparing for a long time and had developed a plan based on their respective capabilities...

But that day was destined never to come.

Rinkawa was destined to be unable to protect the ants and everyone else here.

Because the damage to the body from radiation mutations happens much faster than they imagined.

And so, this is what Wen Xishu saw when he arrived.

The separation of life and death under the apocalypse has been played out in countless places.

When the agreement cannot be fulfilled and the promised redemption cannot be delivered, immense regret and pain will form an obsession within the heart of the qualified individual.

Wen Xishu quickly figured it out: as long as he took these people away and sent them to District 11, and then to the Pure Demon Monk, there might be hope.

This might be a way to break free from the obsession; perhaps even without killing, the mission can be accomplished.

Of course, he wasn't sure if his guess was absolutely correct.

However, he really didn't want to kill someone like Rinchuan Yuan.

He also deeply despised those who experimented on living people.

Wen Xishu decided to save the person.

But at that moment, the alarm in the underground laboratory suddenly went off.

[The lab has been invaded! The lab has been invaded! Ground defenses have begun fighting the intruders!]

Sirens blare.

Wen Xishu activated all five senses to their maximum, and he heard the staff talking.

"Quick! Protect the test subjects! Release 004 and 015!"

"Are you crazy? 004 is at risk of going out of control!"

"It's too late. The ground firepower is fierce. Even if those experimental samples are absorbed by 004, it's better than them falling into enemy hands!"

"We've been exposed, damn it, it shouldn't have happened this fast!"

004? 015?

Wen Xishu didn't know what it was. But he could guess that it was probably a radiation product like the ants, only with great power.

He guessed correctly.

Soon he heard the distinctive sound of air pressure as the hatch opened.

Hereby——

The entire laboratory and even the prison area cooled down rapidly.

Wen Xishu even heard the woman's laughter.

That was 004's laughter.

Number 004 represents the second successful experimental subject since the Toe experiment, and is also the progenitor-level radiation experimental subject.

With 004's release, the entire laboratory and even the imprisonment area were instantly enveloped in a terrifying atmosphere.

Hidden in the shadows, Wen Xishu saw two figures, one tall and one short, approaching Lin Chuanyuan and Xiao Yi.

Everyone huddled in a corner of the prison in fear.

The highest is 015, a radioactive body with powerful defenses and terrifying speed.

The shorter one, who looks like a child, is 004. His abilities are unknown.

Wen Xishu quickly assessed the situation:

“The enemy of my enemy is not necessarily my friend, but the enemy of my enemy at least exacerbates the chaos. Next, as long as I defeat these two monsters... I can take them away.”

With that in mind, Wen Xishu decided to launch an attack.

All of his sequences are available.

However, he did not immediately activate the Solitary Realm. The side effects of the Solitary Realm were too great, and he did not want to be regarded as an enemy by everyone.

A terrifying power was gathering at the base of the Wenxi Tree.

"What is this! Get away, don't come near us!"

Rinchuan shouted, making a pushing motion with both hands. At that moment, 015's tall body visibly stopped.

But it was only for a moment before 015 resumed its actions.

Its muscles became even more exaggerated, and the terrifying, transparent cell wall that no experimental subject could penetrate was actually shattered by 015 with its bare hands.
Wen Xishu was stunned.

As the cell walls were breached, the test subjects launched an attack on 015.

It was a bizarre experimental subject whose body was swollen to the extreme, as if it were occupied by countless cancer cells. Half of it was human, and the other half was filled with countless lumps of flesh.

He controlled the mutated half of his body, gathering his power to punch 015.

015 simply waved his hand, instantly turning the half-body tumor into countless bubbles.

The test subject was instantly killed, its terrifying purple blood staining the walls.

"You overestimate yourself. We are the best experimental subjects, not in the same league as you consumables."

"004, can I kill them all?"

015 looked at the child.

The child was deathly pale, even his hair and eyebrows were white.

004 said:

"Whatever, I have no interest in swallowing them. They're just a bunch of trash. But that kid, we'll keep him alive."

004 pointed at Rin Chuanyuan, and in the next instant, Rin Chuanyuan's body suddenly appeared behind 004.

Rin Chuan Yuan was shocked. He originally wanted to protect everyone, but at this moment, there were two terrifying experimental subjects between them.

"Thank you for your gift," 015 said respectfully. As soon as she finished speaking, 015's terrifying muscles began to contort. All the test subjects wanted to retreat at this sight, but they had already retreated to a corner and could retreat no further.

Soon 015's arms became unusually thick, and its hands became as large as wings.

"If I slap you like this, you'll all die!"

"Stop! Stop!" Rin Chuan Yuan seemed to have witnessed the horrific scene and cried out in anguish.

He tried to get past the two test subjects, but 004 simply made a shushing gesture, which instantly immobilized Rinchuan.

A massive hand slammed down instantly! The terrifying force was enough to cause the entire prison area to collapse.

Just when Lin Chuanyuan thought he was about to be separated from everyone by life and death, two figures moved with incredible speed, instantly protecting everyone.

Wen Xishu and his shadow simultaneously launched a powerful kick, blocking 015's attack.

015's attack not only failed to kill the experimental subjects, but was also pushed back several steps by Wen Xishu's methods.

Although she really wanted to say something, considering that no one here knew her or knew her, Wen Xishu could only abide by the rules and remain silent.

But he can use gestures.

Wen Xishu maintained the kicking motion, then extended his palm, then folded his five fingers together and raised his thumb, then fiercely swung his thumb upside down.

The shadow and the Wenxi Tree were in perfect sync.

This mocking gesture infuriated 015:
"I'm going to kill you!"

The terrifying muscles twisted again, the tendons as thick as steel bars. 015 roared and then unleashed its brute force, crashing into Wen Xishu.

Wen Xishu didn't dodge; only his shadow avoided the attack, while Wen Xishu let it hit him.

This was a truly terrifying blow; the power of this blow was enough to shatter Wen Xishu's internal organs and break his bones.

Wen Xishu's figure was slammed hard against the wall, his whole body caved in.

But the next second, the immense gravity instantly rendered 015 immobile.

At the same time, Wen Xishu's body also seemed to have mutated.

The Mysterious Sequence 159: The Avengers' Karma.

Those who possess this sequence will gradually lose their blood relatives until their number falls below three. However, in return, the more your opponent hates you, the stronger your suppression of that target will be.

Wen Xishu's sarcasm was intended to incite the karmic obstacles of the avengers.

Subsequently, Wen Xishu, due to his severe injuries, triggered the power of the terrain, the power bestowed by Sirius, the Earthly Swamp Trapped Beast.

The oppressive gravity created by the terrain was amplified dozens of times due to the karmic burdens of the Avengers.

Even a powerful weapon like 015 was rendered immobile by gravity after a single attack.

Wen Xishu pointed to 004, the meaning was clear: it's your turn.

Wen Xishu's body began to become strange due to the effects of the bizarre sequence 58: Mutant Slaughter and the runes.

But this time, to be fair, the mutation effect was pretty cool.

Black bone wings sprouted from Wen Xishu's back, radiating a black obsidian-like light, making him look like a fallen angel from hell.

004 looked at 015, who was unable to move under the immense gravity, and simply smiled.

He slowly walked towards 015, stroking its head as if petting a dog.

Wen Xishu was puzzled; the Earthly Swamp Beast seemed to have no effect on 004.

The next second, something terrifying happened. 015's enormous body seemed to have entered another dimension, and began to twist into a vortex shape.

Then...it disappeared.

004 seems to have risen a little.

He was somewhat disappointed:
"Only 015? But you seem to have plenty of food."

He looked at Wen Xishu.

Wen Xishu's expression turned solemn. His opponent possessed terrifying power... a power that seemed capable of absorbing an enemy with just a touch.

At this moment, 004 also turned his palm towards Wen Xishu.

Wen Xishu saw it clearly: there was a wriggling mouth on the palm, which looked extremely disgusting.

But even more disgusting things were yet to come.

In the blink of an eye, the entire prison environment changed. 004's hand with the "mouth" seemed to suddenly turn into liquid.

The liquid gradually began to wriggle and soon covered the entire prison.

During this process, Wen Xishu tried to interrupt 004 with his shadow, and the shadow unleashed a powerful ultimate kick...

But when it hit 004, there was no reaction at all.

On the contrary, 004's body grew a little taller.

004 didn't say much, but snapped his fingers, and the entire prison began to writhe. Suddenly, a mouth large enough to devour everything grew from the wall where the experimental subjects were leaning against.

When that mouth opened... you could see a stringy, sticky liquid inside.

Wen Xishu, Xiao Yi, and all the other test subjects, at this moment, due to the change in environment, gradually approached that mouth.

The ant was about to be devoured...

At the crucial moment, Shadow rushed forward and instantly sealed the mouth shut.

The enormous mouth finally closed and began to chew on the shadow.

The shadow actually launched a perfect parry the instant it closed. This was to buy Wen Xishu as much time as possible, even if it was just one frame.

Wen Xishu was at a loss with 004 for the time being.

Because the target appears to be immune to physical attacks and has the ability to absorb the power of others.

If it were a fight to the death, Wen Xishu wouldn't be worried at all, but unfortunately, he had to protect a few burdens.

The giant maw is about to devour living creatures again, but for a short time, Wenxi Tree will not be able to summon shadows again.

004 doesn't seem to have used his full strength yet.

Because that liquefied hand was still continuously infusing.

On the surrounding walls, a second mouth began to appear, then a third, then a fourth...

The more power it can absorb, the more mouths it can create; and the more mouths it has, the more it can absorb.

Wen Xishu sighed, thinking that he would probably really have to use the Realm of Self this time, and it would have to be the Realm of Self with a custom ultimate technique.

He spread his black bone wings, which, like crystal walls, acted as a shield to block the group of test subjects.

Xiao Yi and the others were rescued by Wen Xishu once again.

At the same time, Wen Xishu's expression turned icy. The Realm of Sole Self was about to open, in that instant...

Wen Xishu could feel that his mind was being affected.

An extreme sense of indifference and alienation filled my entire body.

Once the "I am the only one" power is activated, not only will the surrounding allies hate him, but he himself will also hate them... If he hadn't encountered a powerful enemy, Wen Xishu really wouldn't want to activate this power.

004 seemed to sense some kind of pressure, and he became somewhat wary. As a apex predator, he actually felt a sense of fear.

Originating from the realm of self-reliance, coupled with the power of custom-designed ultimate runes, Wen Xishu's mere activation was enough to intimidate his opponents.

But the next moment, Wenxi Tree suddenly stopped, and the Realm of My Own began to close.

A huge explosion was heard, and the entire prison shook violently.

Wen Xishu stopped because he saw three talismans.

Three talismans he had seen on Deer Island, used to ward off evil spirits.

The three talismans precisely sealed the mouth of the creature on the wall that was trying to devour the living thing.

"This is it, Master!"

"I can feel it, his presence is right here! I hope we're not too late."

Amidst the smoke and dust, a boy's voice could be heard.

Along with the sound came a powerful purifying force, strong enough to cleanse demons.

004 suddenly tried to escape, but a staff, like a javelin, pierced through 004's body, which should have been immune to physical attacks.

As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, Wen Xishu was stunned.

The boy and the monk opposite were also stunned.

"It really is you! How come you... haven't changed at all, Brother Wen Xishu!"

The boy exclaimed in surprise.

Years after the apocalypse, he thought the promise he made back then could not be fulfilled, and that those who had saved him had long since died in countless events.

But he always remembered that first encounter, and even if it was just for a fleeting dream, he would risk coming to the enemy territory.

Wen Xishu hadn't expected to encounter these two people here. It was precisely because of them that he urgently stopped the Realm of Sovereignty, preventing its side effects from taking effect.

It turns out the enemy attack came from them.

Both of them were heroes of Toe.

Leader of the Pure Demon Monks, Master Lingqing, and Prince Lian, Morita Hitomi.
