Life Dungeon Game

Judging from its shape, this is Haixi's bracelet.

The surrounding walls were covered with scratches, the rusty steel handrails were cut off, and shattered steel fragments were scattered all over the stairs. Just looking at this ruined scene, one could imagine how fierce a battle had taken place here.

In the gaps of the stairwell, between the rusty steel walls, and in the walls slashed open by a rapier, blood splattered everywhere, gleaming white.

In this battle, Hai Xi suffered serious injuries and paid a heavy price, but she eventually managed to shake off the powerful pursuer and escape.

He continued up the stairs and entered the second floor of the building.

The chaotic footprints, concealed by Haixi, were running wildly in a panic.

On the second-floor corridor, He Ao saw the body of a bodyguard in a black suit again.

He knelt on the ground, leaning back against the wall.

His face showed panic, fear, and a pleading expression.

A tiny wound pierced his skull.

It seemed he wanted to surrender, but the powerful figure who had been chasing and toying with them was unwilling to accept his surrender.

He continued forward and encountered several more corpses.

These were basically all people who wanted to surrender, but they were all pierced through vital points by that powerful man with a single sword strike.

At this point, He Ao had realized that the powerful figure was not in a hurry to kill Hai Xi, but was toying with Hai Xi and the people around her, like a cat catching a mouse but not eating it immediately.

Little by little, we instilled fear and despair in them.

However, if that's really what they were thinking, then Hai Xi is most likely still alive.

She should be hiding somewhere right now.

He briefly activated his super memory, his gaze sweeping across the entire surrounding space.

-

A huge cockroach crawled across the old, dark cutting board.

A middle-aged man dressed in a black suit and with a neatly combed hairstyle huddled behind a low, dark counter.

The bright moonlight shone through the broken windows onto the dirty floor of the old kitchen.

A figure blocked the moonlight, casting a long shadow on the floor.

The shadow moved forward little by little, passing the cabinet door where the two were hiding.

The man held his breath and, through the crack in the cabinet door, saw the dim shadow blocking the moonlight; his body trembled slightly.

In front of him was a woman with short, burgundy hair, wearing a denim tracksuit and a small jacket.

Her clothes were mostly torn, and her fair skin and gruesome wounds were exposed in the silent night.

The man couldn't see the woman's exact condition, but he knew she was seriously injured. He stared at her, trembling, completely at a loss for what to do.

The woman simply put her index finger to her lips, signaling him to be quiet.

The shadow at the doorway slowly moved forward, eventually disappearing completely from the cabinet door.

The bright moonlight once again bathed the clean floor.

The man peered through the crack at the bright light, still holding his breath nervously, afraid that the shadow might suddenly turn around and strike.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

The bright moonlight remained still, as if the figure had finally disappeared into the distance.

At that moment, the man finally let out a long sigh of relief.

At that very moment, a faint shadow descended from above, obscuring the upper half of the cabinet door.

The man paused, looking at the dim shadow.

It was an upside-down head, leaning against the cabinet door, its bloodshot eyes staring at the man through the crack in the door.

He noticed that the man was also looking at him.

He grinned, revealing a row of white teeth that shone brightly in the moonlight.

A bone-chilling cold crept up the man's back, and an abyss-like fear filled his body.

Bang... Bang...

At that very moment, a slow, deliberate knocking sounded on the door.

Immediately following was a refined and gentle voice.

"Hey you over there, leaning over the cupboard and looking down, please don't stick your butt out so high, it's very unseemly."

新年 快乐

Chapter 575 Intertwined Dominoes (Long Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets)

Upon hearing the voice, Hai Xi froze, then immediately pushed open the cabinet door and rushed out.

At that moment, the figure who had been perched on the cabinet turned around and looked towards the door. He stared at He Ao standing there, jumped down from the cabinet, and smiled. "You've come?"

Hai Xi, who popped out from under the cabinet, looked at He Ao with some surprise in her eyes, her gaze a mixture of joy and doubt. "Jess, how did you find this place?"

"This friend invited me here."

He Ao stretched out his right hand, spread it upwards, and pointed to the figure standing to the side of the cabinet.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Wade."

The figure was dressed in simple but well-made casual wear. Crimson blood splattered on his white clothes, in the hazy moonlight, resembled plum blossoms blooming in the snow. He smiled and looked at He Ao, "It seems you've seen through my plan."

"It's not difficult,"

He Ao withdrew his hand and gripped the handle of the bone axe behind his back.

“Signal jamming has been set up in all the surrounding areas. As the ‘prey,’ Hai Xi would not be allowed to communicate with the outside world. In other words, the location could not have been sent to me by Hai Xi from inside the building.”

Roy, a character in the third instance, is the owner of a small restaurant.

Heo's gaze returned from his memories, and he looked at Wade's face. "You're Professor Moke's student?"

He glanced at Hayes, who was gradually distancing herself from Vidra, and continued,

The blood needed to make gene potions is not just a little bit; Grade B blood is not so easy to obtain. Furthermore, to make Grade B gene potions, many materials in the original recipe need to be replaced with materials of the same attribute but with stronger effects.

The blood of superhumans is an important ingredient in gene serums, and it actually involves the core of the gene serum formula. He Ao did not think that the mysterious person would easily let others know this.

"I knew then that you were doomed. You were too talented. Only you could do this project, and that mysterious boss was no good person."

He shrugged slightly. "Then the result is obvious. You snatched Hai Xi's bracelet in the previous battle. You used some method to crack the bracelet's password and sent me a location using Hai Xi's bracelet. This is not a difficult thing, and you don't even need to use hacking techniques."

This series of events is like a series of intertwined dominoes. Wade wasn't the one who pushed the dominoes down, but he was the first domino to fall.

“Professor Moke has treated you very well. I remember that everyone in your lab receives a substantial extra stipend, and he also supports and guides your ideas so that you can produce appropriate results.”

Hearing these words, He Ao simply shook his head slightly, "Talent itself is not wrong."

"You only need to trick Haixi into looking at the bracelet during the battle, and you can unlock the device by recognizing the bracelet's face and mechanical iris. Even if you don't manage to do that, I remember you had a very skilled hacker, right? He even developed software for me."

His gaze swept over the middle-aged man behind Hayes; he had just seen the man's photo on the nightly news as he passed by. "Senator candidate..."

"Mr. DeSanke was chosen."

Wade slightly raised his short sword. "But when a magnificent and extraordinary world unfolds before you, senior, will you still be content to be a junior researcher?"

The distorted will spread along with the invisible force.

Jess and his wife gave so many lectures throughout their lives, and so many people attended his lectures, that it was impossible for Jess to remember everyone's face.

He asked calmly.

He paused for a moment, then said, "You know, the professor is very trusting of his students. I easily found the experimental data on the gene serum in the hidden folder. Of course, it was at that time that I came into contact with the extraordinary world."

"Actually, you did the right thing by handing over all the research data on the gene-gene drugs. The 'boss' specifically organized a laboratory to take over that data to study the gene-gene drugs, and I was one of them. And the results we came up with were..."

Wade seemed oblivious to the escape of the two targets he had been pursuing for so long; all his attention was focused on Heo.

He Ao did not comment on his actions, but calmly stated the facts.

But this time, he came not unprepared.

He smiled and looked at He Ao. "If it's not urgent, Miss Hai Xi can also survive. After all, a C-grade is quite rare. Using her to make gene-producing blood bank drugs is the choice that maximizes her value."

Wade looked up at He Ao.

At that moment, he understood the terrifying power of He Ao.

Vader raised his hand, and a slender, silver rapier, as thin as a needle, was in his grasp. The rapier gleamed coldly in the moonlight, and a silver ring guard connected the two ends of the hilt, enveloping Vader's fingers.

"I didn't actually do anything,"

He is not only a C-rank combatant, but also one of the core members of the gene serum project. After 'Jace' left the project, he became one of the main people in charge of the project.

Vader drew his sword. "Alright, the pesky one is gone."

He knew He Ao was very strong. In the previous battle in that abandoned building, he had been sent by the mysterious man to support the mercenaries in the building, along with another C-rank who liked to wear combat uniforms.

"Actually, I'm very jealous of you, senior,"

"almost,"

The only difference was that Wade and his team failed to develop the gene serum, which proved Jess's importance. This importance allowed Jess to live a few more years, until the gene serum was finally developed.

His mind was more focused than ever before; he needed to use all his strength to deal with Heo, who was far more important to the Mystic than Hayes and DeSanc.

Heo gripped the axe handle and slowly pulled the bone axe from his back. He stared at Wade, his gaze slightly narrowed. "You seem to know a lot about gene serums?"

Vader raised his rapier. "You have such a good father and such outstanding talent."

Wade didn't quite understand what Heo was saying, but he wouldn't allow himself to fall behind.

His betrayal led to Professor Mok's murder, Roy's father's death, and Viana's exile in Dawn City. In the process of hunting down Viana, the Witch Church also gradually infiltrated Dawn City.

"I admit, in"

When I saw those materials, I did hesitate. I wasn't originally qualified to pursue graduate studies; my family couldn't afford my tuition from my third year of undergraduate studies onwards. It was my professor who subsidized my tuition, taught me, and helped me gain admission to graduate school without taking the entrance exam. I am very grateful to him.

"There were no results."
