Life Dungeon Game

For a moment, I didn't know what words to use to express my feelings, so I could only add, "You're amazing!"

While some high-end sports cars can perform such maneuvers, these are only shown in promotional videos for those cars, and on specially arranged racetracks.

Using an off-road vehicle in such a real-world setting, Hai Xi had only ever seen this in fantasy movies.

Faced with Hai Xi's praise, He Ao simply smiled and expressed his gratitude, saying, "Actually, this wasn't entirely due to my efforts."

He Ao himself doesn't have such good driving skills; Eve was assisting with driving throughout the process.

"And this car also deserves credit!"

Hai Xi picked up where He Ao left off. There were only two people and one car here. She had just been responsible for startling them. He Ao said that it wasn't entirely his doing, so all she could do was praise the car.

Hesy knew that some racers treated their cars like friends. The blush of excitement on her face was gradually fading, but a hint of excitement still lingered between her brows. "But this car is really good. The power it just unleashed was stronger than my previous sports car."

Impressive, right? It's from overclocking.

He Ao gripped the slightly trembling steering wheel; under Eve's forced overclocking, the car wouldn't last much longer.

However, this car itself has a good foundation, and if handled well, it should be able to hold out until it shakes off its pursuers.

The black SUV continued its rapid journey, the wind whipping across their faces in the still darkness.

The people who set up the trap obviously didn't expect He Ao to be able to bypass their encirclement, so they didn't deploy any personnel near the exit.

The two of them could almost see the underground parking lot exit ahead and the lights illuminating the road ahead as they looked up.

However, the wide expanse of light was slowly narrowing as a massive iron gate was slowly closing, about to lock the underground parking lot exit.

He stepped on the gas, and the black SUV hurtled toward the ever-closing gate.

"That modified car has caught up with us again."

Hashi glanced back and saw the white SUV, then her gaze fell on the red-haired man's hand on the roof. "What's that? What does he want?"

The man held a silver metal syringe tightly in his hand, and Hai Xi could vaguely see specks of orange light on the edge of the silver metal.

The man seemed to notice Hai Xi's gaze, and he gave a somewhat sinister smile before inserting the syringe into his arm.

He glanced at the reagent in the man's hand through the rearview mirror, his expression slightly grim. He was now almost certain that it was the gene-editing agent that Jess had been researching.

Just before the iron gate closed, the black SUV sped off, skimming the edge of the gate and landing on the wide road.

The narrow exit was not enough for the silver SUV behind to break through.

But Hai Xi always felt that things weren't that simple.

In her view, the huge iron gate slowly closed, the exit becoming narrower and narrower until it was almost completely shut.

Boom——

An arm gleaming with orange light reached out from behind the iron gate and suddenly stopped the closing gate.

I haven't been feeling well lately, so updates might be a little late. I'll resume normal updates once I've recovered. Everyone, please get some rest.

Chapter 544 What is a gene serum? (Mega Chapter, Requesting Monthly Ranking)

The massive iron gate was held firmly in place by those strong arms, while the hydraulic press that drove the gate continued to push it forward. Under the combined force of these two terrifying forces, the solid steel creased and wrinkled like paper, creating a dent.

A cluster of thick muscles bulged from that arm, and with a sudden pull, an orange phantom, propelled by the force, burst forth from the crevices of the steel, hurtling towards the black SUV that had just landed on the road like a cannonball.

Seeing this, Hai Xi, sitting in the passenger seat, did not hesitate at all. Her right hand suddenly stretched out from the car window, and a thin thread, almost invisible in the night, pierced through the void, heading straight for the neck of the orange phantom.

The phantom stretched out its hand, and a semi-transparent orange light barrier formed on its arm, blocking the flying thin alloy wire.

boom--

With a loud bang, his figure landed on the roof of the back seat of the SUV. The sturdy steel roof was almost instantly pierced through, like a hole being punched in a thin sheet of paper, allowing the orange figure to fall smoothly into the SUV.

Hai Xi reached out and retrieved the silk threads that were flying in the air.

Only then did she get a clear look at the orange phantom in front of her.

Just as she had guessed, the orange phantom was the red-haired man who had just injected the reagent.

However, the man was in a strange state at the moment; his strong muscles had atrophied to some extent, and his body size had shrunk by about one-third.

But now his body looks more explosive than before, and his body is covered with a strange, faint orange glow.

The shape of the light was quite peculiar; it didn't resemble the light emitted by some kind of light-emitting device, but rather a hazy mist formed in a luminous state.

Something unseen and unknowable is hidden behind this hazy radiance.

Hai Xi subconsciously wanted to carefully observe the hazy light, and in that instant, a hazy and chaotic murmur silently appeared in her mind.

She felt as if the world she saw was changing, and her thoughts were falling as if in a dream.

In that instant, she felt a tremendous force coming from beside her, abruptly pulling her out of the dream.

She looked up in surprise at He Ao, who was reaching out his hand beside her.

At that moment, He Ao was holding her wrist with one hand and gripping the dagger with the other, blocking the red-haired man's punch.

This real scene woke her from her 'dream' and brought her back to the real world.

"You drive."

He Ao glanced at her, but didn't ask why she had been distracted. He released his grip on her wrist and gestured for her to get into the driver's seat.

He Ao had just unbuckled her seatbelt.

At the same time, He Ao's figure moved backward, and as he knocked away the red-haired man's fist, the dagger in his hand transformed into a streak of light, slashing towards the red-haired man's neck.

The red-haired man suddenly stepped back, his body crashing into the rear windshield, which already had a hole in it.

He Ao's figure also passed through the main and secondary...

Using the gap between the driver and passenger seats, I easily entered the back row.

After He Ao was no longer there to stop her, Hai Xi quickly got into the driver's seat, took control of the vehicle, and then turned off the autopilot function that He Ao had just activated.

To ensure safety, the federal government's autonomous driving systems have many limitations and are not suitable for the dangerous environment we are in now.

Just as Haixi got into the driver's seat, several white SUVs, roaring like the red-haired man's, rushed out from the other end of the street and sped closer.

Hai Xi slammed on the gas pedal and sped along the road under the cover of night.

In that very short time, in the back seat of the car, He Ao had already exchanged blows with the red-haired man several times.

Compared to the two of them, the rear space of the SUV was too cramped, so much so that the two of them could only lean against the back seats and fight each other with their fists flying.

However, He's weapon was a short dagger, which allowed him to use it quite freely in this environment, while the larger red-haired man was more restricted.

But every time He Ao tried to hurt him, a golden barrier would spread out from his body, blocking He Ao's attack.

“You are very capable. Whatever this woman offers to hire you, we can offer double the commission.”

After being subdued by He Ao, the red-haired man briefly stopped, leaned against the door on the right side of the back row, and said in a hoarse voice.

He Ao held the dagger in his hand, watching the faint glow on the red-haired man's body gradually dissipate.

Gazing at these radiant lights, He Ao's mind echoed with distorted murmurs.

These rays of light are the inevitable result of using gene-editing agents.

The fundamental knowledge behind the creation of gene serums was actually occult knowledge from Jess's father's book, and the several breakthroughs in gene serum research were achieved by Jess in a state of chaos and madness.

Therefore, Jess could not be certain whether the gene serum was a scientific creation or a mystical creation.

Or perhaps it is a creation made by scientifically utilizing mysticism.

The gene serum developed by Jess can only be used via intramuscular or intravenous injection. After use, it will temporarily grant the user the appearance of the talent sequence corresponding to the serum.

Unlike the secret elixirs of the talent sequence, which require special and rare main ingredients, the synthesis of gene potions does not require particularly powerful and rare extraordinary materials. It only requires extraordinary factors made from the blood of some beasts or extraordinary individuals who possess the talent sequence.

This ability to mass-produce undoubtedly possesses the attributes of industrial science, but the principle behind how the gene serum grants power to its users remains a mystery. At least Jess, the creator of the gene serum, does not know how the serum works.

He only knew 'it's okay to do this,' but he didn't know 'why it's okay to do this.'

However, Jess himself speculated that the source of the potion's power might be related to the gods.

Because every time he used gene-enhancing agents on experimental animals, Jess would often sense some indescribable, immense power during the process of the agents taking effect, and this sensation would further increase his madness.

Later, through observing the researchers around him, he realized that this was impossible.

The power of name is not something everyone can sense; the vast majority of people cannot perceive it. Perhaps a few people can perceive it, but they cannot perceive it repeatedly.

To touch this indescribable power requires a very strong soul perception ability. The stronger the soul, the higher the possibility of touching this power, but it is only a possibility.

Of the many researchers in the lab, only one researcher had ever glimpsed this great power by chance, and he went insane on the spot, before Jess could save him.

Since then, Jess has tried to keep researchers out of the testing of gene-based drugs.

Of course, Jess himself could always glimpse this indescribable power, so his mental state deteriorated.

Hai Xi's actions just now showed that she had glimpsed the indescribable power that caused the gene serum to take effect. If He Ao hadn't helped her, she probably would have lost all her sanity and transformed into a superhuman monster.

Although as a powerful superhuman, Hysey's intuition should be very strong, according to Jess's previous deductions, the probability of her being able to easily glimpse that terrifying power is very low.

I don't know if Hai Xi's luck is good or bad.

Seeing that He Ao did not reply but instead stared at the radiance of his body, the red-haired man continued, "Are you curious about my power? If you wish, you can also possess these powers."

He glanced at Haixi, who was still driving, and said, "Well, if you catch this woman, I can pay you double the commission she paid you, and let you experience even greater power."

He had realized He's power, so he began to consider using other means to quell the matter.

"Brother, what's your decision?"

He glanced at Heo, who seemed to be deep in thought, and then quickly looked at Haixi, who was driving in front.

Hayes kept her hands steady on the steering wheel, quickly dodging vehicles on the street, seemingly unconcerned about Heo's attitude.

However, the red-haired man noticed that Hashi's arm was somewhat stiff.

This proves that the woman doesn't seem entirely confident that Heo won't turn around and attack her.

This proves that Hayish and the powerful superhuman in front of her are not really familiar with each other and do not have long-term mutual trust.

The red-haired man smiled.

His attempt to sow discord might be effective. He glanced at the still-calm Heo, then suddenly stood up and punched Hayes in the temple while he was driving.

A brief hesitation can determine the outcome of a battle.
