211: Chapter 211 A-Rank Zombie Girl Goes Out of Control
Boom!
One punch.
The explosion-proof glass, capable of withstanding heavy sniper armor-piercing rounds, shattered into a rain of fragments instantly.
The shockwave overturned the control console.
Liu Qing was thrown to the ground; her glasses were crooked, and the computer screen in front of her flickered wildly, filled with scrolling garbled code.
"Red Alert!"
"B3 Laboratory out of control!"
She looked up and saw the dark shadow had already rushed out of the hatch.
The target was not Tang Qiqi.
It was her.
Liu Qing's face turned pale.
Her [Mechanical Dominator] could take over systems, communicate with equipment, and open all the electronic eyes of Tiangong No. 1.
But she was not Qin Yumo.
Let alone A-Grade.
If it got close, even a C-Grade Awakened Ones could pin her to the ground and beat her.
"Qiqi!"
Liu Qing's voice cracked.
"Run!"
Tang Qiqi stood her ground.
She bit down on the lollipop in her mouth.
Crack.
Sugar shards fell to the ground.
The girl who usually held small cakes and hid behind Qin Yumo, crying "Sister Yumo, save me," did not retreat this time.
Her twin tails whipped up.
Blue and white electric arcs crawled from her neck to her fingertips.
"Run my foot."
Tang Qiqi raised her hand, and lightning exploded in her palm.
"I haven't finished drawing my combat suit yet."
Number 14 lunged in front of her.
Too fast.
Tang Qiqi only had time to erect a lightning shield.
Bang!
The shield shattered.
Claws tore through the blue and white lightning, and also tore through her forearm.
Blood splashed onto the ground instantly.
Tang Qiqi groaned, sliding back half a meter.
B-Grade versus A-Grade.
It's not something that can be leveled just by risking one's life.
Number 14 let out a low growl in her throat, bypassed Tang Qiqi, and lunged at Liu Qing again.
Tang Qiqi's eyes reddened.
"Where are you looking!"
She grabbed Number 14's arm, pressing her whole body against it.
"Come on, big sister will give your big chest a charge!"
The electric current exploded at zero distance.
Boom!
The B3 laboratory was instantly filled with blue and white light.
Rows of light tubes burst.
Liu Qing lay on the ground, gritting her teeth as she dragged her body backward.
With one hand on the ground, she pressed her headset with the other, forcibly taking over all the B3 cabin lock systems.
"Sealed Cabin Two, lock."
"Three, lock."
"Four..."
She couldn't let the remaining thirteen out.
Otherwise, this wouldn't be a laboratory.
It would be a slaughterhouse.
Number 14 threw her head back and roared as she was electrocuted.
Scorched marks appeared on her skin.
But she didn't fall.
She drove a knee into Tang Qiqi's abdomen.
Bang!
Tang Qiqi flew out, hitting the titanium alloy wall.
The wall dented.
She fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Liu Qing's pupils constricted.
"Qiqi!"
Tang Qiqi propped herself up, her fingers trembling.
She wanted to stand up.
She couldn't stand steady.
Number 14 stepped forward again.
This time, her claws were aimed at Liu Qing's head.
Tang Qiqi raised her face, her mouth covered in blood.
"I said..."
She raised her hand.
She forcibly pulled out residual current from damaged circuits, light tubes, and the control console.
The electricity in the entire laboratory seemed to be drained.
A blue and white lightning web lay in front of Liu Qing.
"You aren't getting past."
Number 14 hit the lightning web.
Sizzle!
Lightning exploded.
Tang Qiqi's shoulders shook, and she spat out another mouthful of blood.
Number 14 finally gave up on Liu Qing.
She turned her head, deciding to deal with this annoying electric rat first.
She walked up to Tang Qiqi.
Tang Qiqi stared at it.
This time, she didn't even have the strength to curse.
Just as the claws were about to fall.
A girl's voice sounded over the broadcast.
Very soft.
Very hollow.
Without emotion.
"Kneel."
Two words.
All the alarm sounds on the B3 level were silenced as if someone had choked them.
Number 14's body froze in place.
The next second.
Her spine bent.
Both knees smashed into the broken glass on the floor.
Bang!
She prostrated on all fours.
Her forehead touched the ground.
An uncontrollable whimper came from her throat.
That was not a command.
It was a royal decree in the bloodline.
Liu Qing looked at the speaker.
Lin Motong's voice did not sound again.
But the pressure remained.
Like an invisible hand pressing on Number 14's spine.
The elevator door swung open with a bang.
Lin Yuan stepped out first.
In a black shirt, his gaze made the entire B3 even colder.
Qin Yumo followed closely behind.
Seeing the blood on Tang Qiqi, her red hair instantly flared up.
The next second, her twin blades were drawn.
A blood-red afterimage slashed through the air.
"I'm going to chop you up!"
The blade slashed directly at Number 14's neck.
Number 14, kneeling on the ground, dared not move.
The blade was only one centimeter from her skin.
It stopped.
Two fingers pinched the blade.
Lin Yuan stood beside Qin Yumo, his voice cold.
"She is still useful."
Qin Yumo's chest heaved.
The blade was still trembling.
She stared at Number 14, the killing intent in her eyes not dissipating.
But her body was faster than her emotions.
She sheathed her blades.
She stepped back.
She lowered her head.
"Yes."
Qin Yumo walked to Tang Qiqi's side, her movements much slower than before as she crouched down.
Xia Qingqiu rushed in carrying a medical kit, her shirt buttons not even done up.
"I'll do it."
She knelt beside Tang Qiqi, her fingers pressing over the rib area, her brow furrowing.
"Three ribs are broken, internal bleeding."
A green healing light fell.
The broken bones began to reset.
Tang Qiqi coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the first thing she said after catching her breath was:
"Don't I... look a lot like a powerful Pikachu?"
Slap!
Qin Yumo slapped her on the butt.
Tang Qiqi's eyes widened instantly.
"Sister Yumo! I'm already injured like this!"
Slap!
Another one.
Qin Yumo said coldly: "Who told you to conduct experiments when Dr. Su isn't here?"
Tang Qiqi felt so wronged that tears were almost falling.
"It's usually very stable!"
"I've learned all the buttons Dr. Su presses."
"Who knew it would suddenly pull a Gold!"
Liu Qing stood by, her glasses crooked, her expression not looking too good either.
"I also have responsibility."
Her voice lowered.
"Qiqi came to ask for my help, and I didn't stop her."
"The B3 equipment is under my control, and the B-Grade samples have never had any problems."
Tang Qiqi immediately raised her hand: "Right! Little Ji is an accomplice!"
Liu Qing: "..."
Xia Qingqiu pushed up her glasses with her middle finger.
"Shut up."
Tang Qiqi instantly quieted down.
Qin Yumo still wanted to lecture her.
Lin Yuan glanced at Tang Qiqi.
[Ding! Target Tang Qiqi (Appearance 86), Favorability +1%! Current Favorability: 17%!]
Beaten like this, yet she still stopped him from killing the culprit.
Favorability didn't drop but increased.
This little thing's thought process is indeed not quite normal.
Tang Qiqi peeked at him.
"Great Demon King."
Her voice was a little lower.
"I didn't let her bite Liu Qing."
Lin Yuan walked up to her.
"So I didn't punish you."
Tang Qiqi's eyes lit up.
"Then is there a reward?"
Qin Yumo raised her hand.
Tang Qiqi immediately shrank into Xia Qingqiu's arms.
"I'm a wounded person! Wounded people have a protection period!"
In the tense laboratory, someone finally chuckled softly.
Lin Yuan didn't smile.
He walked toward Number 14, who was kneeling on the ground.
Lin Motong's voice came from the broadcast again.
"Uncle Lin."
"There is something dirty inside her body."
Lin Yuan stopped in his tracks.
"Explain clearly."
The broadcast was silent for two seconds.
Lin Motong's voice was even softer.
"Like... rotting meat that has been exposed to the sun."
Lin Yuan's eyes darkened.
This batch of medicine from the capital is tainted.
Tang Qiqi sat on the ground, her mouth still busy.
"Good grief, the gacha pool has been contaminated."
"No wonder it pulled a Gold but still blew up the furnace."
Xia Qingqiu pressed down on her shoulder.
"Talk less, your ribs just reset."
Lin Yuan took a B-Grade crystal core from his space.
The crystal core gleamed with a yellowish luster under the light.
He hadn't really tested the system left by Chen Mo yet.
Most of the high-level zombies encountered before had been killed into crystal cores.
Since Chen Mo said it could communicate after being contracted.
Then let's see if this A-Grade Zombie Girl can spit out anything useful.
Lin Yuan crouched down.
Number 14's forehead was still pressed against the ground.
Lin Motong was suppressing her.
She didn't even have the qualification to look up.
Lin Yuan pressed the crystal core against her forehead.
A system prompt popped up.
[Do you want to consume a B-Grade crystal core to activate the Zombie Contract?]
