108: Enter the experimental base

Spinning and leaping, Xu Jingzhe was like a phantom in the night, his figure ethereal and unpredictable.

Suddenly, he braked sharply, sliding a short distance across the tiled roof.

He collided head-on with someone who had suddenly appeared. The immense softness in his arms absorbed the impact, and Xu Jingzhe was tightly embraced by the person.

"Hey, you Little man, not sleeping in the middle of the night and just showing off here?" Qiu Jie pinched Xu Jingzhe's handsome face and laughed.

Xu Jingzhe let out a long breath. He had thought the figure looked familiar just now; it was a good thing he hadn't attacked.

"Qiu Jie, how did you know I was here?" Xu Jingzhe asked, puzzled.

"Your Qiu Jie has a very sharp nose. I remembered the scent of your hormones the first time we met. Within a twenty-li radius, as long as you appear, I will definitely be able to smell you."

"Tell me, dressed in black in the middle of the night, carrying a long saber, which young lady are you going to abduct?"

"It's not that, I have serious business," Xu Jingzhe said.

Qiu Jie became interested and said, "What serious business? Take me, Qiu Jie, along. I definitely won't hold you back."

"It's too dangerous, it's not suitable."

"What's not suitable? Could it be that now that you've become Li Xiu's godson, you've forgotten your Qiu Jie?" Qiu Jie sighed deliberately. "Men are all the same, forgetting old loves for the new. How far have you developed with Miss Qin Shuang?"

"Holding hands, hugging, kissing, or have you already rolled in the sheets?"

Xu Jingzhe looked at Qiu Jie in surprise. This woman was truly not simple; there was nothing she didn't know.

"Let's go then. The Wang Family's Bacterial Experiment Base, do you dare to go?" Xu Jingzhe decided not to hide it from her.

"I'm going. Qiu Jie hasn't spent all those years in the Chemical Zone for nothing."

"Wait for me for five minutes!"

With a few flashes, Qiu Jie disappeared into the night. When she reappeared, she was also wearing a black outfit—tight-fitting, accentuating her curves, with a wasp waist and large hips, making one unable to help but swallow saliva.

"Qiu Jie, you might as well not have changed," Xu Jingzhe said as they walked.

"What do you mean?" Qiu Jie asked, puzzled.

"It's too white and too bright on your chest; it's reflecting light," Xu Jingzhe said dissatisfiedly.

"You brat, don't act like you're suffering when you're getting a bargain. Most men wouldn't be able to see it even if they wanted to."

Xu Jingzhe picked up speed, Qiu Jie followed, and the two gradually moved away from the downtown area.

"However, since you haven't rolled in the sheets with Miss Qin Shuang—it's said she's still a virgin at twenty-eight, which is so rare." Qiu Jie was moving very fast, without flushing or panting, showing that her strength was indeed not simple.

"I'm not interested in her. I already have a girlfriend; it's just the head of the Qin Family playing matchmaker blindly."

"Tsk tsk tsk..." Qiu Jie smacked her lips, looking meaningful.

The sky was slightly bright as the two arrived in a mountain range. This mountain range was a very famous tourist attraction in Su City, a piece of primitive old forest.

Except for outdoor enthusiasts who liked to explore and those streamers who broadcast their adventures, generally no one ventured deep into it.

The two didn't buy tickets, bypassed the detection system, climbed into the restricted area, and headed straight for the depths. They tried their best to avoid pedestrians along the way. Xu Jingzhe came to a place with an open view to look into the distance.

System: "Ding, after crossing the big river below and heading east for about five hundred li, you will reach the Wang Family's Bacterial Experiment Base."

"Qiu Jie, how much do you know about the Wang Family?" Xu Jingzhe suddenly asked.

"I don't know much, only that Wang Tai has been frequently using Moon Soil Evolution Fluid for baptism in recent years, wanting to improve his own strength, but he always fails to cross that threshold. He is probably half a foot into the ranks of the Thirty-Year Mutant."

"Wang Tai is that strong?" Xu Jingzhe was startled internally.

Qiu Jie shrugged, her proud chest jiggling, and said, "He is, after all, the head of a second-tier family. How could he be the family head without some strength?"

The river was turbulent; an ordinary person falling into the water would inevitably be washed away. Fortunately, there were a few stone shoals in the big river to step on.

Xu Jingzhe stepped back dozens of meters, ran forward, and his legs exerted sudden force. He leaped high, carving an arc in the air. His amazing jumping ability surprised Qiu Jie. He landed steadily on the nearest stone shoal.

Xu Jingzhe looked at Qiu Jie, who shook her head and then gave a charming smile.

She also rushed forward. The moment she leaped, she spread her arms, her clothes becoming a paraglider, and she glided forward freely and gracefully.

Xu Jingzhe scratched his head. The power of technology, indeed.

Five hundred li was not far for the two of them; they arrived in two hours.

The scenery here was excellent, with lush vegetation and rolling mountains. The leisurely chirping of birds occasionally reached their ears, making people feel as if they were in another world.

Taking a deep breath, the air was fragrant, and their spirits were instantly refreshed.

System: "Ding, there are hidden enemies ahead, you must be careful. The perimeter security of the base was destroyed by me last night."

Towering ancient trees were entwined with vines, and the ground was crisscrossed with tree roots and covered in moss. The silence of the primitive forest and a sense of vastness rushed towards them.

Xu Jingzhe made a gesture to Qiu Jie, and she understood immediately.

The two silently disappeared into the mountain forest. With the cover of dense leaves, Xu Jingzhe discovered the first hidden person.

Wearing a ghillie suit, he had almost merged with the tree. If he hadn't emptied his mind and relied on the werewolf's powerful hearing to amplify subtle sounds, he would not have felt the enemy's heartbeat.

Holding his breath and focusing, Xu Jingzhe reached the highest point. His body was as agile as a monkey, and he didn't make a sound the moment he landed.

The Black Gold Long Saber severed the neck of the ambushing sniper. Because it was too sharp and the strike was too fast, the blood hadn't even had time to flow out before Xu Jingzhe put the sniper's head back on.

From a distance, it looked just like he was alive.

There weren't many snipers arranged on the perimeter of the base. Firstly, the Bacterial Experiment Base was hidden, and secondly, it had the most advanced surveillance system in Su City.

The two took care of three snipers and arrived in front of a cliff face. The cliff was covered with weeds and even had bird nests.

Xu Jingzhe stared at it, stunned. Could this be the entrance?

"Big shot, how do we get in?" Xu Jingzhe asked in his mind.

System: "Ding, this door has no network. If there is no key, it can only be opened with great force, but such a big commotion would inevitably attract attention."

Xu Jingzhe looked at Qiu Jie. It was fortunate he brought her this time; otherwise, it would have been really difficult to handle.

"Qiu Jie, it's up to you," Xu Jingzhe said.

"Hold me." Qiu Jie looked at Xu Jingzhe with a smile, her red lips alluring.

Xu Jingzhe opened his arms and hugged Qiu Jie.

The air vibrated, and the two entered the Bacterial Experiment Base, right at the entrance.

The passageway was very spacious, with many detection instruments on the stone walls on both sides. Having invaded the Skynet here last night, under the system's control, the infrared detection system did not sound an alarm. One after another, metal gates opened, and the two moved inward. After passing five gates, their eyes lit up; a circular corridor was beneath their feet.

The corridor was in sections; the connecting parts were made of level-one alloy, while the rest was made of glass.

Looking forward, both were extremely shocked. The interior of this mountain had been hollowed out, and in the center, the Bacterial Experiment Base was suspended! The experiment base was huge, occupying two-thirds of the space, and there were four more circular corridors connected to the base within their line of sight.

Xu Jingzhe estimated that there were also circular corridors connected to the other end of the base. Based on the distance of each corridor, there should be eight corridors connecting the Bacterial Experiment Base to the mountain.
