Because they knew they could not resist the attacks of these demon bears, several researchers chose to run to the small compartment next to them, closed the door, and left through the escape window there.
As for the security guards, after all, they did not have enough manpower today and it was impossible for them to defeat these evil bears.
How little they are paid? It's not worth risking their lives for them.
Just open the door and let the magic bear leave from here, so as not to destroy the internal environment of the laboratory, which will be considered as being worthy of the director.
Those demon bears were also confused. They had never expected that their escape plan would go so smoothly.
But there was no time to think about it now, these guys fled along the passage.
After they left the laboratory, they headed towards the forest.
Because the laboratory was located near the outer city area, the magic bear quickly ran away this time.
The only thing to be thankful for is that these demon bears were only concerned with escaping themselves, while the other test subjects were still there.
"It's over, it's over. I can already imagine what the director's expression will be when he returns... What should we do?"
"This should be considered an accident and force majeure. The director won't blame us, right?"
"Hard to say."
"If these guys run away, I'm afraid our share of Originium supply will be reduced again."
"? You are still thinking about this at this time? Is this the problem now? Why don't we report the matter quickly? These demon bears have been infected with Originium. We can't let the Originium pollution spread, otherwise it will become an ecological disaster..."
Chapter 53: Negotiations Break Down
There was not even a moment to grieve over the failure of the laboratory, as the next to appear were the adventurers in the secret realm of Lava Fury.
"So, are we just going to confront that Kronin directly? What if he really is the mastermind behind this?"
"There's no other way now. We have to hurry. The situation is urgent. We have no other choice but to do this. And I'm not completely powerless at the City Hall. The bodyguard my father left for me, Hei, is very powerful. We don't have to be afraid of what Kroening may do."
"Okay, I always feel a little uneasy..."
"Relax, it's okay. I'm here, nothing will go wrong."
Several people were brought by Ceylon to the gate of the City Hall.
"Mr. Kroning, Miss Ceylon wants to see you."
"What important matter requires you to come to the City Hall in person, my dear lady?"
The guy in front of them was a white-haired man with animal ears. Several adventurers wanted to complain from the very beginning. Why were there so many animal-eared girls and men in this city?
The guy in front of him looked at Ceylon and the adventurers who followed him with a not very pleasant expression.
"The festival arrangements are going on at full speed now, and everyone doesn't have much free time."
As soon as he opened his mouth, he wanted to chase them away.
"Kronin, let me get this straight to the point. Mount Xiosta may erupt soon. Maybe in the next second, or maybe in a few days."
"The safety of all travelers and citizens will be threatened. We need to provide them with guidance and start preparing for evacuation or shelter."
"All subsequent events of the Obsidian Festival need to be suspended immediately."
"Oh, my lady, do you know what you are saying now?"
"If someone else had spoken to me like that, I would have kicked them out long ago. But since it's you, I'm willing to explain it to you."
"You don't have to worry about the volcano. I don't know where you heard this from, but it's obviously nonsense."
"...Are you kidding me?"
"There are already many signs that the volcano has begun to become active again and it is likely to erupt in the near future."
"For example?"
"The Originium worms' frenzy, the abnormal temperature, the strange smell, etc., these are all evidence. If you still don't believe me after all this, then take a look at the information I brought. It contains a detailed analysis process and conclusions."
As Ceylon spoke, he took out the data he had collected during this period from his pocket and showed it to Kroning.
However, the man in front of him just took a look and returned the information.
"Obvious? Did the Originium worm tell you this, or did the temperature or some smell say it? I just don't understand what these baseless numbers have to do with a volcanic eruption."
"All I know is that the volcano observation system, which was arranged by the mayor himself and designed with my technology, has no problems at all. The parameters of the Xiosta volcano are no different from those in the past few years. If anything, it is more stable?"
(“Captain, I feel like this guy has absolutely no intention of having a good conversation.”
"That's right, this guy has the words 'I am a bad guy' written all over his face..."
"Nonsense, do you think I can't see it? This guy probably knows it. Everyone, be careful. If a fight breaks out, catch him as soon as possible.")
Here, Ceylon was still trying to persuade Kroning. Several adventurers had already realized that this round of negotiations was bound to fail.
Finally, Kroening asked the security guards of the city hall to arrest the adventurers, claiming that they had bewitched Ceylon.
"Come here, everyone, and capture them."
"So, this still has to be resolved by force. If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have wasted so much time..."
The four men were already prepared and attacked Kroning immediately.
The End of Skills and Tactics
"Whoosh."
"Be careful!"
"Boom."
At this time, an arrow shot towards them, but was blocked by the [Guardian] who was in the front. However, his previous equipment had been almost destroyed by the acid Originium worms, and now he was wearing fire-resistant equipment provided by the association.
Therefore, the defense against physical attacks is not that good.
Although he blocked it, he took several steps back and couldn't help spitting out blood.
"Are you okay?"
"It's okay, but the last blow was too strong. You guys can't withstand two blows with your strength. So you better be careful."
"Kronin, are you ignoring even what I said? Hei, what are you doing?"
"Miss, the master is out of town, you have to listen to Kronin."
"Hei, what are you talking about?"
Ceylon was still unwilling to accept the fact, but the adventurer next to her stopped her.
"Okay, let's not talk about it for now. It's obvious now that she's on Kronin's side... Let's retreat first and find a chance later."
The bodyguards nearby were gradually approaching. In order to prevent themselves from being completely surrounded, several people took Ceylon away.
As for Hei, because there were many people at the scene, in order to prevent Ceylon from getting hurt, he could only watch them leave.
"Quick, catch up."
Several people rushed all the way and arrived at the gate of the city hall.
"Let me do it, everyone get in the car."
Taking the current situation into consideration, the [Mechanic] in the team took out his work: a constructed mechanical magic-driven sports car and placed it at the door on the way here.
"Hurry up, the people behind are catching up."
"I'll drive and you guys will do the rest."
With the injection of magic power and the skill bonus of the [Mechanic], the car speed reached a magical speed.
"They ran away and took the young lady with them. Why don't you chase them quickly?"
"Hmph, want to run away?"
The crossbow in the black hand was aimed at the car.
Skill: Crossbow
Because Ceylon was still on the car, Hei couldn't use his strongest skill, and could only aim at the car's tires.
However, the crossbow arrow was dodged by a drift of the car.
"Haha, when I first got this car, I raced it in the deserted areas of the outer city every night. Even the police couldn't catch up with me."
"...Dude, you're going a little too fast. Do you have a driver's license?"
"Driver's license? What's that?"
"Fuck, I want to get off."
"It's too late. The car door has been welded shut. Stop talking nonsense here and help me pay attention to possible attacks from behind. Although my car is reinforced, it still can't block an arrow like the one just now."
An exciting chase began on the streets of Xiosta City.
Chapter 54: Plan Pass
“Ah~ah~ah, can you slow down a bit? By then, we might as well be taken away by your car before we’re caught by the guys behind us.”
"Don't be afraid. I usually race faster than this. What's so special about this?"
"Be careful ahead, watch out for the cars, watch out for the cars."
"I can't stand it anymore. I feel like I'm going to throw up."
"Hold on, don't spit it out, this is my car, if you really do it, I will never forgive you."
If we look down from a high altitude, we can see that a car that is obviously illegally modified is speeding in front of us. It avoids obstacles at an incredible angle several times and also dodges the crossbow arrows shot from behind.
Behind it, some cars and even motorcycles were chasing closely.
On one of the motorcycles, Hei used a crossbow to shoot at the tires of the car from time to time.
Looking at the distance between them, it would probably take some time for the car in front to escape.
Now, let's turn our attention back to other people.
…………………………Dividing line…………………………
People do not share the same joys and sorrows. But when you are carrying a heavy burden and moving forward, there must be someone who is ensuring your good times.
Inside the bar, in a private room.
"Drink, drink, drink."
A certain blue-haired little dragon was completely drunk and was lying on the sofa acting crazy.
"Look at that Chen, he got drunk after just a few drinks, that's really lame."
The hooded man on the side agreed.
"This Chen is just a loser."
"From what you said, you are very brave?"
"Just kidding, I'm super brave, okay? I'm a great drinker."
The two of them were chatting and drinking, and they looked like old friends.
"Hey, speaking of which, Doctor Brother, are you guys here for vacation as well?"
"Yeah, we finally solved a super-troublesome problem. Now everyone is finally relieved. We talked to the person in charge of the company (Green Lynx) and came here to rest."
"You guys are here as a group too, great then, let's go together to cheer for DDD tonight."
"Okay, no problem."
It was obvious that in just about half an hour, the two men had gone from just knowing each other to being close friends and calling each other brothers.
Beside them, Helag and [psychologist] Lao Liu looked at them helplessly.
"Mr. Liu is indeed very knowledgeable. His knowledge in many professional fields is really eye-opening."
"No, no, the old man's skills are quite high. I wonder where he worked before?"
"Haha, I'm just an ordinary security captain in a small place. I usually beat up some thugs and catch the horses that get out of control in the nearby horse farm. By the way, Mr. Liu, you guys are not here just for tourism, right..."
"We were invited. Someone gave us a commission to investigate the volcanic activity here."
"Volcanic activity, what does that mean?"
