All-out: Starting with the Awakening Special Operations Unit, search, attack, and withdrawal.

"Bang!!!"

When Chu Hong pulled the trigger again, a gunshot rang out.

The bullet pierced the armor of a member of the Dark Knight squad and went straight through his heart.

The five-man Dark Knight squad suffered two casualties.

The remaining three people, upon seeing this, all realized that the situation was dire.

Just as the captain of the Dark Knight squad was smashing Lei Xiao away with his spear, he suddenly pulled out something that looked like a syringe before anyone could react.

It got stuck in his neck.

"You all go! I'll hold them off! The president's path cannot be blocked! Today, none of you will be able to protect this secret realm of the [Clifftop Plague Hospital]!"

Looking at the captain of the Dark Knight squad, a terrifying surge of source energy suddenly erupted from his body, accompanied by a scarlet aura that swirled around him like a hurricane.

On the rooftop of the [Beast Research Laboratory], Chu Hong immediately sensed a familiar ominous aura.

"It's forbidden! That madman is trying to take us all down with him!"

beside.

Lan Yujing, who had rushed from the [Core Laboratory] to the rooftop, immediately stood in front of Chu Hong with a solemn expression. Her body shone with golden light, and the warmth of the sunlight made Chu Hong, who was standing next to her, feel a strange sense of security.

This should be one of Blue Rain Crystal's skill effects.

And just as Lan Yujing said.

The moment the captain of the Dark Knight squad injected the forbidden substance, his body, which had been shrouded in medieval knight armor like a black mist, turned into a surging, ferocious red.

"boom!"

A terrifying sonic boom was accompanied by a violent tremor in the ground.

Two assassins from the Lei Kai team who were holding back the members of the Dark Knight squad were instantly blasted away by a tremendous force, like cannonballs.

With a loud "boom!", he was blasted over a hundred meters away.

It crashed directly into the distant [Rehabilitation and Wellness Center].

Lan Yujing's pupils suddenly contracted.

Almost instinctively, their bodies immediately assumed an emergency defensive posture.

The captain of the Dark Knights, who had clearly entered a berserk state after being injected with the forbidden substance, had already charged right in front of her.

The 20-meter-tall building leaped directly to the top.

"Shield of Dawn!"

A burst of scorching energy erupted from the shield in Lan Yujing's hand.

however.

Even faster than him was the terrifying spear of the Dark Knight Captain.

"boom"!

Lan Yujing was like a garbage bag being swept away by a hurricane, flying horizontally downstairs in an instant.

In mid-air, Chu Hong even heard a sound like bones breaking.

Chu Hong saw the face of the Dark Knight captain!

but.

Upon seeing this, Chu Hong couldn't help but gasp in shock.

Beneath the armor, within the crimson energy body, was a skeleton of white bones with almost no flesh or skin visible!

"You damned rat, you piece of trash who only dares to hide in the shadows and snipe at people, why aren't you firing anymore?"

Within the skull eye sockets of the Dark Knight captain, two flame-like red lights emanated intense rage and murderous intent.

With a frenzied aura, it approached Chu Hong.

Chu Hong raised his gun.

"Bang!"

At close range, a loud gunshot rang out.

The gold-quality bullet struck the opponent's helmet precisely and bounced off.

"Bang!"

As Chu Hong retreated, he quickly pulled back the bolt again, firing another shot.

"Bang bang bang..."

When the magazine was empty, Chu Hong had been forced back to the edge of the rooftop by his opponent.

The captain of the Dark Knights smiled.

Without even glancing at Lei Xiao, who was already charging up behind him, he raised his spear.

"You should sing yourself a funeral song beforehand!"

The spear suddenly swung down, while Lei Xiao's terrifying fist from behind had already pressed into the opponent's back.

however.

The captain of the Dark Knights, however, seemed completely unafraid.

Just as the [Flying Bird Drone] emitted a sharp blast and rushed towards the opponent at extreme speed, it could only watch helplessly as the spear got closer and closer to Chu Hong.

A sudden change occurred.

"roar!!!"

Suddenly, the rooftop beneath their feet was smashed open by a ferocious, enormous dragon head.

The lightning crackled and popped, its golden light flashing like a rocket shooting into the sky.

Before the captain of the Dark Knights could react, he soared into the sky.

"BOOM!!!"

Lei Xiao was thrown away by the sudden surge of energy.

The remaining members of Lei Kai's team were stunned and disbelief-stricken when they saw the horrific state of the shattered rooftop; their emotions froze on their faces.

"roar!!!"

A demonic dragon, its body covered in barbs of keratin, dark blue in color, and with a pair of giant horns encircled by lightning on its head, suddenly appeared around Chu Hong, its form coiled around him.

Lightning flashed and dragon roared.

Chu Hong watched with a half-smile as the figure traced an arc in mid-air and fell into the distance.

"Didn't you ever think that if I, someone who handles guns, got caught in close combat and didn't run... what do you think I was waiting for?"

dragon?!

When Lan Yujing, who was seriously injured, saw this shocking scene, her beautiful face, which was covered in grime, was completely stunned.

How come this person has a dragon by their side?!

Could this thing be like the Dark Knight captain's warhorse, with a statue-like, bright red effect?

Lei Xiao, who was closest to Chu Hong at this moment and also on the roof of the [Beast Research Laboratory], felt it most clearly.

His heart pounded.

The giant dragon that was circling around Chu Hong was clearly a magical creature, and it possessed a distinct and powerful life energy.

This is not a collectible!

This is... a real demonic dragon!

Could it be that Chu Hong somehow found a dragon egg somewhere that could be brought out as a collectible, and then...

That's not right!

How do you hatch this thing?!

Lei Xiao's mind was thrown into turmoil!

In mid-air.

The captain of the Dark Knights, who had been suddenly blasted away by the sneak attack, finally broke free from the intense electric shock and even flipped over in mid-air without the Hell Horse.

The gray-black cloak behind him ripped and swayed in the wind.

He was standing directly in mid-air.

However, something seemed off about him now, and faint, beast-like roars were coming from his terrifying skeletal mouth.

Lei Xiao's expression changed.

"Everyone be careful! This guy's gone out of control!"

"Huo Jun! Take the seriously wounded to the evacuation point first! Hurry!"

The moment Lei Xiao gave the order, the captain of the Dark Knights in mid-air roared and, in the blink of an eye, brandished his spear and charged in front of Chu Hong and the others.

Beside Chu Hong was a Thunderhorn Dragon that had just hatched from the [Biological Weapon Cultivation Room] that day.

It immediately let out an angry dragon roar.

Lightning magic crackled and burst forth from the horns in an instant.

With a loud bang, it struck the charging Dark Knight captain.

however.

The lightning magic that had just launched a sudden attack that could have sent the opponent flying could only briefly stop them this time.

"Damn it! Who the hell is the boss?! There's even a second phase?!"

"You stinking sniper! Die!"

Even though the captain of the Dark Knights had lost control of his body, he was still able to roar out a furious and murderous roar the moment he launched his attack.

Lei Xiao's expression darkened, and his Core Condensation Realm strength erupted instantly.

"You retreat quickly, I'll hold them off..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lei Xiao, who was charging toward the captain of the Dark Knights, heard Chu Hong's roar from behind.

In the fleeting moment when Yu Guangyi turned his head.

My back was almost covered in a cold sweat from fright.

"Holy crap! Stop messing around!"
