"sit down."

Tang Long raised his hand, gesturing for Wang Hu to sit down first.

"I'll definitely go, but not to my death."

His voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable penetrating power.

"That thing in the city center can kill people from a distance, which means it has some kind of unpredictable means. If you lead a large group of people in, you'll lose your head before you even see its face."

Wang Hu paused for a moment, his lips moved, he groaned, and sat back down.

Tang Long continued, "This mission is about quality over quantity. You need to have a strong mentality and special expertise."

His gaze swept over everyone present.

"Wang Hu, you're one of them."

"Luo Yongchao, your sniping skills are indispensable."

"Wu Zheng, you are meticulous. You used to be a transporter at the city's grain depot, so you are very familiar with the city's terrain. You went along too."

Wu Zheng, who was guarding the door, was stunned for a moment, not expecting to be called on.

But then his gaze hardened: "Captain Tang, as long as my daughter can grow up safely at the base, I'll go anywhere, even if it means being boiled in oil, let alone going to the city center."

Tang Long nodded slightly, then looked at Zhao Fan and Liu Qiang: "You two, stay and guard the base. The base's population has exploded! Internal stability is equally important."

"Yes!" they all replied in unison.

Tang Long then selected several experienced veteran police officers, forming a team of ten.

Just then, Su Yan, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.

Count me in.

All eyes were on her.

"No way!" Tang Long refused without even thinking. "It's too dangerous."

"The opponent is using a mental attack. My ability might be able to counter it or provide a warning," Su Yan insisted.

She looked at Tang Long, her eyes not pleading, but only stating a rational opinion.

"I'm not going there to hold them back; I'm going there to increase the chances of success."

Tang Long looked at the other person and hesitated for a moment.

A few seconds later, he nodded.

"Okay, you can go! But be careful."

"Cough cough."

Just then, in a corner of the conference room, Chen Ming suddenly cleared his throat.

"Since we're going to risk our lives, how can we not bring back some of my newly researched gems?"

He adjusted his glasses, a smug look on his face.

"I have something that can increase your chances of survival by 30%."

Everyone looked at him in surprise.

Only Tang Long's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed in surprise, "You figured it out?"

Upon hearing this, the others realized that the core team was aware of Chen Ming's research on potential-enhancing drugs during this period.

"You'll find out when you come with me." Chen Ming kept everyone in suspense, then turned and walked out. "The product is finished, and we're just waiting for you to inspect it."

The group exchanged glances and followed Chen Ming out.

A few minutes later, the group arrived at the laboratory.

Chen Ming led everyone to an experimental table protected by an alloy shield.

He entered the password, and the metal cover slowly rose, revealing ten neatly arranged syringes inside.

The syringe contained a dark red liquid that gleamed strangely under the light.

"I call this thing 'Type I Potential Agent'," Chen Ming said, picking up a vial as if showing off his masterpiece.

"This was made using destruction crystals, mimicking their so-called gene inducers."

Tang Long picked one up and examined it under the light: "How's the effect?"

"Its power is definitely not as good as the original," Chen Ming readily admitted.

He pointed to some tiny particles in the medicine.

"However, it's not without its advantages. For example, I added a diluted solution of the life-saving potion to it beforehand."

Tang Long was stunned for a moment.

Chen Ming explained, "The energy of the destroying crystal is essentially to cause genes to go berserk for a short period of time, thereby unleashing powerful force, but the price is the collapse of the gene chain, which means exploding and dying."

"The people at the grain depot have the necessary stabilizers to control this process."

"We didn't have any stabilizers, so I changed my approach."

"The life potion has a powerful energy repair function. I mixed the two in a specific ratio so that the energy of the destruction crystal could push the genes to the brink of collapse, but was held back by the life potion."

Chen Ming shrugged.

"So, although the power isn't that great, the advantage is that you don't have to worry about killing yourself."

He couldn't help but sigh at the end.

"If we didn't lack the formula for the stabilizer, I would prefer you to use the original gene inducer; that stuff is truly terrifying in its power."

"What I have is, in the end, just a half-finished product made by taking shortcuts. I haven't tested it on real people yet, so I don't know how effective it is, how long it lasts, or what the side effects are."

He had barely finished speaking.

Wang Hu had already taken a syringe from his hand.

"I'll do it."

Without saying a word, he rolled up his sleeves and plunged the needle into his arm, slowly injecting the dark red liquid into his veins.

"You..." Chen Ming wanted to stop him, but it was too late.

Wang Hu pulled out the syringe and threw it on the table.

For the first few seconds, he didn't react much, only curiously clenching his fist.

But soon, his face began to flush red, and the veins on his neck bulged out like writhing earthworms.

"Ughhhh!"

Wang Hu let out a suppressed growl, and his muscles swelled up at a visible speed, stretching his combat uniform taut.

A fierce and violent aura emanated from him.

"I have this feeling, I want... I want to... I want to fight someone!"

"No! To be precise, it's an impulse to destroy everything." His eyes were somewhat bloodshot, as if he was trying hard to control himself.

Tang Long's gaze sharpened, and he grabbed Wang Hu's arm.

"Come on, let's go outside!"

On the open ground behind the base.

Tang Long and Wang Hu stood facing each other.

At this moment, Wang Hu's eyes were bloodshot, his breathing was like a bellows, and his whole body was radiating an astonishing heat.

"Captain Tang, watch out! I...I feel like I could kill a bull with one punch!" Wang Hu grinned, his voice becoming somewhat rough.

"Then let me see just how capable you are."

No sooner had Tang Long finished speaking than Wang Hu charged forward like a raging bull, his speed more than twice as fast as usual.

Tang Long dodged to the side, and Wang Hu's fist whistled past him before slamming into the wall behind him.

boom!

Bricks and stones flew everywhere, leaving a large crater in the wall.

"Holy crap! That's incredible!" Liu Qiang, who was watching from a distance, was stunned.

Luo Yongchao nodded: "That's really impressive."

"..."

the other side.

Tang Long did not take the attack head-on, but instead kept moving around, testing Wang Hu's strength and speed.

He was initially cautious, merely dodging.

A few minutes later, he noticed that although Wang Hu's strength and speed had increased dramatically, his attack patterns had become chaotic, and he seemed to be throwing punches based on instinct.

"Is that all you've got?" Tang Long provoked him.

Wang Hu roared and his attack became even more ferocious.

Tang Long stopped dodging and flicked his right hand. A jet-black vine shot out from his palm and transformed into a long whip.

The Whip of Order!

Snapped!

The whip drew a sharp arc in the air and struck Wang Hu's back with precision.
