You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

"Click".

A soft sound broke the suffocating darkness and silence.

Several backup emergency lights installed in the corners of the walls, using the most primitive physical circuits, lit up faintly, emitting a dim yellow glow that re-outlined the entire shelter's contours.

Although the light was dim, it was enough for people to see everything clearly.

Old Qi was completely dumbfounded.

He just knelt there blankly on the ground, holding the electronic detonator, now just scrap metal, in his hands. His cloudy old eyes were filled with disbelief and utter bewilderment.

It's like a kid who thought he had a winning hand, only to find that his opponent flipped the table and burned his cards.

The immense sense of being kicked from the pinnacle of heaven into the deepest abyss almost made his already weakened heart stop beating.

"My immortality... my life's work... everything I have..."

He muttered to himself unconsciously, two streams of turbid tears rolling down his wrinkled cheeks.

"It's all ruined...you've ruined everything..."

He suddenly raised his head and stared intently at Lin Chen with eyes filled with deep hatred.

If looks could kill, Lin Chen would probably have been torn to pieces by now.

However, Lin Chen simply looked down at him coldly.

Seeing this medical giant, once revered by countless people, now lying on the ground like a stray dog, tears streaming down his face, is truly heartbreaking.

There was not a trace of pity in his eyes.

Lin Chen moved.

He strode forward, step by step, steadily walking towards Elder Qi.

His tall figure cast a huge shadow under the dim light, like an insurmountable mountain, completely enveloping Qi Lao's small and pitiful figure.

"Tap...tap...tap..."

Every step felt like stepping on Old Qi and the Viper's hearts, causing them to tremble uncontrollably.

Lin Chen stopped in front of Elder Qi.

He slowly bent down, without saying a word, grabbed the collar of Old Qi's spotless white research coat, and lifted him off the ground as easily as picking up a chick!

Old Qi's withered body felt weightless in Lin Chen's hands.

"you……"

Old Qi was forced to look Lin Chen in the eye, and when he saw Lin Chen's eyes, all the rest of his words got stuck in his throat.

What eyes they were!

Cold, profound, devoid of any human emotion.

It was like the ancient ice beneath the deepest abyss, capable of freezing everything in the world and even the soul!

Under such gazes, Old Qi felt like a prisoner who had been stripped naked and exposed to the freezing snow, his body and soul completely frozen!

"Your immortality?"

Lin Chen finally spoke. His voice wasn't loud, but it carried a chilling aura that could penetrate to the bone.

"Your immortality is built upon the deprivation of young, vibrant lives, the draining of their marrow, and the trampling of their dignity!"

"Your hard work? Your hard work is just turning innocent people into agonizing specimens in nutrient tanks, into cold experimental materials on the operating table?!"

"Qi Bo'an!"

Lin Chen's voice suddenly rose, booming like thunder in Old Qi's ears!

"You are such a selfish and self-serving beast, willing to send countless people to hell just to survive!"

"Completely unworthy, merely wearing the cloak of a medical giant!"

"You have tarnished the word 'doctor'!"

The words had barely left his mouth!

Lin Chen retaliated with an extremely loud slap, striking Old Qi's old face hard!

"Smack—!!!"

A crisp, loud popping sound!

Lin Chen didn't use his internal energy in this slap, but the force was definitely not small!

Old Qi's face swelled up rapidly before the naked eye, and a clear five-finger mark appeared instantly!

He was thrown backward by the blow, and with a "pfft," a mouthful of liquid mixed with blood and broken teeth spurted out.

Among them was a well-made, bright yellow... denture!

The dentures traced an arc through the air before crashing to the ground several meters away, shattering into pieces.

Old Qi was completely stunned by the blow, seeing stars, his ears ringing, and half of his cheek burning with pain. He instantly lost consciousness.

"What awaits you is not immortality!"

Lin Chen's voice was like a judgment from hell, cold and merciless.

"But it is the law, the most severe and impartial judgment!"

"And, may you spend your short and miserable remaining life alone and in agony in a cold prison!"

After saying that, Lin Chen loosened his grip.

Old Qi's body, as if all his energy had been drained, collapsed to the ground with a thud, like a tattered garbage bag, and he could not get up again.

After doing all that, Lin Chen didn't even bother to look at him again.

Just then.

"boom!"

At the entrance to the shelter, the alloy door that Lin Chen had pried open was suddenly smashed open from the outside by a tremendous force!

"Don't move! Police!"

"Don't move!"

Li Mingyu led a team of fully armed special police officers, charging in like tigers descending a mountain, guns at the ready!

When they rushed in and saw what was inside, everyone was stunned.

The intense gunfights or hostage standoffs they had imagined never materialized.

All that could be seen were ten grotesquely dismantled "giant" corpses lying haphazardly on the ground.

A woman in a red dress was slumped in a corner, with a wet patch beneath her, trembling like a sieve.

An old man in a white lab coat, his face covered in blood, lay sprawled on the ground like a lump of mud, his fate unknown.

And then there was that man, like a god or demon, standing alone in the center of the arena, his clothes perfectly neat and tidy—Lin Chen!

Li Mingyu swallowed hard.

He knew he was late again.

Or rather, as long as Brother Lin is around, these so-called elite special police officers will always be relegated to following behind and cleaning up the battlefield.

"Lin...Brother Lin!"

Li Mingyu jogged forward, his eyes brimming with such intense admiration that they were almost overflowing.

"Where...where am I?"

"The main culprit is Qi Bo'an."

Lin Chen pointed to Old Qi on the ground, and then to the poisonous snake in the corner.

"Accomplice, codename Viper."

"Take them all."

"yes!"

Li Mingyu perked up and waved his hand.

Two special police officers immediately stepped forward, one on each side, and lifted up Old Qi, who was still convulsing on the ground. They used cold handcuffs to cuff his hands, which had once saved countless lives and also destroyed countless lives.

The other two SWAT officers, with disgusted expressions, pinched their noses and dragged the venomous snake, which was already delirious with fright, out of the way.

Thus, the mysterious organization that had been entrenched in the capital for many years and had secretly committed countless heinous crimes—the "Longevity Club"—was brought to light.

Within its most solid and core fortress, Lin Chen uprooted it completely in a way that was almost devastating and like a dimensional reduction attack!
