Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 595 Massacre

On the phone, Li Wang didn't mention the matter of meeting him again. Instead, he asked about the whereabouts of Qinghai Laomo, Zishu, and Shanlong.

After the old demon Qinghai recited his previous statement, Li Wang hastily hung up the phone.

The old demon from Qinghai, who had lived for countless years, naturally realized immediately that he had been exposed.

Although it's unclear how Riki-Oh determined that he wasn't a Taurus, the Old Demon Qinghai believed the problem might not lie with him.

Xiao Ran had already picked up the Qilin's spiritual book and opened the Qilin's memories, but there was nothing in it about the coming of the Power King.

As for information about Li Wang, Qilin had never even heard of him.

What Xiao Ran is most worried about now is not just Li Wang, but whether the news will be leaked and whether the Changchun Association will immediately send more experts to provide support.

If that's the case, Xiao Ran should start thinking about running away with the bucket right now.

"It's too late!" After making a quick deduction, Qinghai said to Xiaoran, "Since this person is already suspected, he will definitely call the Changchun Association immediately. But it won't be easy for the people from the Changchun Association to get here now."

The old demon Qinghai analyzed it carefully.

There are now three leaders in Changchun. Po Jin is chasing Wu Man and Qie Yu, and he is a lone wolf and difficult to contact. As for the head manager, he is good at business and would not do such a risky thing.

So even if Li Wang senses something is wrong and notifies the Changchun Association now, it will take at least three days for the Changchun Association to send another expert.

Therefore, even if the Changchun Association wanted to come and provide support, it would be difficult for them to free up their resources for the time being. However, since Li Wang had already seen through Xiao Ran's disguise, the fact that he still came here in person shows that this guy's strength is probably not to be underestimated either.

It's very likely that he's a C-level professional.

With Pumpkin joining the team, even Xiao Ran would feel a lot of pressure, given that he has only recently become a professional and has not yet fully developed his professional abilities.

"It seems we need to act faster."

As Xiao Ran spoke, she cleaved the phone hidden in the wardrobe into pieces with the guillotine, then turned around and rummaged through a hidden compartment in the wardrobe to find a thick stack of documents.

These documents are all drug trial contracts signed by Kirin.

These contracts seem quite fair at first glance.

They will guarantee the safety, food, and nutrition of the test subjects, and will give them great benefits as long as they complete the test, up to 500 ghost money.

Judging from the content of the contract, there are basically no problems, which explains why many people would sign it.

However, after signing the contract, they discovered that it was in strong conflict with the hospital's rules.

This resulted in the fact that the person who signed the contract with them was Changchun Association, but the management was affiliated with the hospital.

Behind this contract, there is another contract, a transfer agreement that Qilin signed separately with the hospital.

This means transferring all these medications to the hospital in exchange for Changchun personnel exercising some management authority within the hospital.

Looking at the contents of the contract, wow, even capitalists would weep, and Judas would call it an expert.

Based on this agreement, not only does the patient belong to the hospital, but even their body and soul after death belong to the hospital.

They will be put into the reprocessing furnace, remanufactured, and then continue to be exploited by the hospital as patients, generation after generation, without end.

In fact, if it weren't for the limited number of beds in the hospital's inpatient department and the successive blows suffered by the Changchun Association, which prevented the association from having the time to spare, the hospital would probably have been gradually transformed into a meat processing plant by the Changchun Association, according to the original plan.

Injecting drugs, observing and cultivating materials, making medicine, and then putting it back into the furnace to be made again... This forms a complete service, which is definitely a labyrinthine hell.

Looking at the thick file folder in his hand, he realized that at least a hundred people had been tricked into participating in the drug trials during this period.

It's unimaginable how many ordinary people, unable to adapt to the changing world, would be lured in by the Changchun Society's bait once the Future City is established.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran's disgust for the Changchun Association had reached an extreme.

These people are a bunch of parasites, even more hateful than parasites.

"Let's go! To the observation tower."

As the three walked out of the office, they heard angry howls coming from the hallway.

"It itches, it itches! Someone please help me, ahhh!!"

The sound was coming from the hot water room, and the sound of splashing water could be heard from time to time. Xiao Ran nodded to Qinghai Laomo beside her.

Qinghai Old Demon turned around and walked away. Soon after, the screams in the hot water room stopped abruptly.

When the old demon from Qinghai returned, he couldn't help but tease, "I think we could add an itchy hell to hell, hehe, that would be too torturous."

After finishing speaking, the old demon Qinghai couldn't help but lick the corner of his lips, clearly enjoying this kind of torture.

After the three of them went downstairs, they saw some people running past them in the distance.

Judging from the direction they were running, they were probably heading towards the bathhouse. It seems they had the same idea as Qilin: the itching was so unbearable that they decided to soak in hot water to relieve itching.

"It's up to you now. Once it's done, come and meet me."

Xiao Ran assigned this task to the Old Demon of Qinghai.

"I'd be more than happy to." The thought of a whole bathhouse full of naked people soaking in hot water, groaning in pain, made Old Demon Qinghai excited.

Xiao Ran led Jin Chanzi towards the observation tower. "You seem perfectly fine," Xiao Ran said, glancing at Jin Chanzi from time to time along the way.

The curse she set up was an indiscriminate attack; in fact, even Xiao Ran herself was within the scope of the curse.

However, Xiao Ran had long ago used half of the Yin-Yang technique to conceal his aura, so the dead man's aura would not be ignited by the ghost's light.

From this perspective, Xiao Ran couldn't help but admire the magic technique created by the Plum Blossom Taoist.

Others may feign death, but at most they use the art of breathing like a turtle; a half-master of Yin-Yang techniques directly turns himself into a dead person.

Don't underestimate this skill of playing dead; it has helped Xiao Ran solve countless problems.

Jin Chanzi is different. This guy doesn't know any Yin-Yang skills, but Xiao Ran hasn't seen the slightest bit of discomfort on his face after all this time.

Moreover, he remembered that Jin Chanzi had said that although he was born in reality, he had been cultivating in the Lost City for a very long time.

After spending so much time in a godforsaken place like the Lost City, doesn't he have any trace of filth on him?

Facing Xiao Ran's questioning gaze, Jin Chanzi proudly raised his head: "What are you thinking?? I am a primordial spirit child, with a flawless body and pure yang energy. I am the Little Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain, blessed by Heaven. Your curse technique is not enough to shake my energy. Hehe, you are still lacking in skill."

"If you're so great, just say you're the Jade Emperor. If you're so awesome, how did you end up in the hands of the Star Treasure Master, get bought by Mother Xi, and then have me come to save you?"

Xiao Ran rolled her eyes at Jin Chanzi.

Seeing this, Jin Chanzi said with a melancholy expression, "You probably won't believe me if I say I'm the Jade Emperor, but do you believe me if I say I was deliberately sold out by the Star Treasure Master to lure you into a trap?"

"I don't believe your grandma's nonsense."

As the two were talking, they arrived at the entrance of the observation tower.

There were still a few newcomers guarding the entrance to the building. Although they were itching and scratching their heads, they dared not leave their posts.

If you stay here obediently, itching is fine, but if you leave your post and are discovered by the Ghost Lord, then what awaits you is a fate worse than death.

As the guards in the observation tower, they knew all too well what would happen if someone fell into Ghost Lord's hands.

Seeing Xiao Ran and Jin Chanzi approaching, the group immediately perked up: "Fifth Brother, what are you doing here? You can't just come in like this; you need Master Gui's permission first."

Xiao Ran ignored them and turned to Jin Chanzi, saying, "Step back a bit, or you'll get splattered with blood."

Jin Chanzi nodded in deep agreement, took two steps back, and said with a profound and unfathomable expression, "You just go ahead and make your move. I'll back you up. With me behind you, all demons and monsters are like pigs and dogs."

"Heh, if Xi Mama knew how shameless you were, she would have scraped off several layers back then, enough for her to be reborn."

As he spoke, Xiao Ran's eyes turned, and the guillotine was drawn with a clang, a layer of cold light covering the blade.

"You!!" Seeing Xiao Ran draw his sword, the expressions of the guards at the door changed drastically. Just as they were about to take out their cursed items to retaliate, the blade swept across like a black dragon's tail.

The first slash was a diagonal cut. The moment the blade grazed the man's Adam's apple on the left, a burst of hidden energy exploded along the back of the blade. With a "bang!", fragments of the vertebra mixed with blood sprayed out from the back of the neck. At that moment, the man was still in the position of holding up the cursed object, unable to activate it in time.

Just as the two men on the right were about to attack, the blade suddenly slashed horizontally. A chilling, bone-deep wind swept over them, as if their consciousness were being sucked away by the blade's force. In the blink of an eye, the blade struck them head-on, and their heads exploded like ripe watermelons. Before the red and white remains even hit the ground...
At the same time that Xiao Ran made his move.

Ghost Lord and the others, who were focused on synthesizing the potion in the core area, were looking at the crystal-clear liquid being continuously drawn from the medicine bag in front of them, their faces full of joy.

"The concentration of the original solution in one medicine bag is enough to dilute at least thirty portions of Agent No. 3, which is enough to strengthen fifteen people."

Ghost Master's smile deepened; based on this alone, he was more than qualified to become the new leader of the Changchun Association.

There were several other corpses inside the observation tower, each containing a medicine pouch, enough for Changchun to train a highly skilled fighting force.

"Congratulations, Ghost Master."

Pumpkin offered his congratulations to Ghost Master from behind, saying that to become the leader of the association, one must consider not only strength, but also contributions to the Changchun Association and the resources one controls.

Pumpkin was initially assigned to the Seventh Middle School with this purpose in mind.

Unfortunately, they were outmaneuvered by Doujiao, which not only prevented them from taking control of the Seventh Middle School, but also led to its complete closure, causing Changchun Association to lose an important asset.

For this reason, even though Pumpkin has become a professional, he is not qualified to become the new leader.

"Haha, it's too early to congratulate you now, but don't worry, I will send you all the potions produced in the future as soon as they pass the trials."

"Then thank you very much, Master Gui. I will definitely remember this favor."

Pumpkin thought to himself that once he completed the enhancement of the No. 3 potion, at least two of his attributes would break through 100 points.

The addition of two 100-attribute attributes made Pumpkin incredibly excited just thinking about it.

While the group was still immersed in the vision of mass production of the No. 3 drug in the future,

A piercing alarm suddenly rang out.

Immediately afterward, the walkie-talkie on Ghost Master's waist rang, and a hoarse cry for help came through: "Ghost Master, Wuliangye... ah..."

Upon hearing the voice coming from the walkie-talkie, Ghost Master, Pumpkin, and the others felt a chill run down their spines, a bad premonition creeping in.

"Hey, American Pie, American Pie, say something!" Ghost shouted a few times while holding the walkie-talkie.

But there was no response from the walkie-talkie. Just then, Xiao Ran's voice came through: "How can a dead man talk? Ghost Master, I can't wait any longer. Send over the rest of the medicine, or... I'll burn all this consumables!"
