"How is this possible!" he exclaimed sharply. "How is this possible?! Could it be that the antidote didn't work?! What kind of toxin is in your blood?!"
"I don't know either." Chen Xiao forced a smile. "Probably similar to Alice. However... I might be able to explain this situation a little bit. Because... there's probably another substance in my body."
As he spoke, he seemed to pause deliberately, took a deep breath, and stared into Qiu Yun's eyes:
"Do you know what...purification is?"
Qiu Yun felt his strength slipping away—and not just his physical strength. He made a final desperate attempt! He still had metal in his hand! And right next to him was that steel bar!
Detonate it! Even if we lose, we'll drag this kid down with us!
But the magical energy he had once relied on vanished rapidly, like a receding tide! No matter how hard he tried, his will was no longer under his control! The steel bar was right in front of him, yet it remained unmoved, like stubborn iron. Completely beyond his control—that's right. It was just a piece of stubborn iron to begin with.
"Ability...superpower..."
A strange blue hue suddenly enveloped Qiu Yun's face!
This color is exactly the same as the color of "Black Seven" from the service center that attacked Chen Xiao back then, after it was purified and infected!
Qiu Yun's body struggled, twisted, and trembled like a fish out of water, desperately clutching his throat with both hands, letting out a howl like that of a wild beast.
He was resentful!
How could that be! You're such a newbie!
He's just a newbie!
Qiu Yun reached out a trembling hand, as if trying to grasp something. Her five fingers were like hooks, stiff, and finally, trembling, she reached into her own bosom...
His eyes were obscured by his long hair, but behind the disheveled hair, a final glint of madness flashed in his eyes!
"Huff, huff, huff..." He gasped for breath, his voice stiff and hoarse from the stiffness of his muscles: "Ha! Rookie... You've got some skills! Then, let's die together!"
He held a syringe covered with rubber in his hand, then bit off the rubber cover and plunged it into his carotid artery!
A green liquid was rapidly injected under his muscles...
Qiu Yun suddenly let out a loud howl, a howl filled with endless pain, his voice twisted in agony!
Almost instantly, the blue on his face turned a ghastly green, and his entire body muscles... even his ten fingers, visibly swelled up rapidly!
Finally, Qiu Yun placed his hands on the ground, and when he raised his head...
Horrifying blood was simultaneously seeping from his eyes, nostrils, ears, and mouth!
The blood wasn't even a pure red; it was a red tinged with a ghastly green...
It was as if—bloodstained blood! ? ?
"Let's die together. Let's die together!" Qiu Yun laughed cacklingly, his voice no longer sounding human.
Suddenly, his hands, seemingly drawn from nowhere, clenched tightly, digging fiercely into the hard floorboards! Stone chips flew everywhere, and his fingers were covered in blood and gore, but Qiu Yun seemed oblivious to it all.
His face was filled with nothing but a maniacal laugh!
Chen Xiao watched Qiu Yun with his own eyes. His entire body seemed to instantly erupt in a cloud of green mist. His eyes had turned pure green! And blood… from his face, arms, and all his exposed skin, from every pore, terrifying beads of blood rapidly seeped out!
finally……
Click click click... click click click click...
Around the abandoned factory building, the walls simultaneously emitted twisting and cracking sounds, and began to contort and shake. It was as if the steel bars hidden beneath the walls were moving like snakes!
The roof above was trembling and cracking, with large pieces of asbestos tiles, sheet metal, lime slabs, and composite panels falling off piece by piece!
A faint rumbling sound could be heard all around...
Finally, Chen Xiao struggled to roll over and curl up completely...
And he had just finished making that move...
boom!!!!!!
In the very center of this abandoned factory area, a deafening roar, like a summer thunderclap, suddenly erupted! A towering dust storm followed, and flickering flames engulfed the area. The massive factory building, its walls and roof, was reduced to fragments in the explosion! The powerful shockwave swept in all directions, even collapsing the walls of four or five adjacent factory buildings!
At that moment, even the ground trembled...
Amidst the massive explosion, Qiu Yun began to laugh wildly, but soon, a huge roof beam fell and smashed into his head, instantly crushing it to pieces.
The laughter abruptly stopped amidst the explosion...
This renowned expert in the international supernatural abilities circle couldn't believe, even in his dying moments, that he, a top-tier expert of the Black Knight, could die at the hands of a mere rookie...
Chen Xiao was knocked unconscious by the first explosion, and then countless pieces of rubble fell on him, quickly burying him...
"Um?"
The loud explosion startled the person who was hiding in a dusty, dilapidated house on the edge of the abandoned factory area. He had been curled up asleep on an abandoned machine tool table like a fat groundhog, but the explosion jolted him awake.
He wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth, which had gotten from sleeping soundly... The fat man shook his head and carefully shrank his neck...
My first reaction was to reach into my pocket... and there it was, a wad of crumpled banknotes—well, thank goodness, the money was still there.
But...no way? I've hidden in such a remote place, could it be the police?! Why is there such a commotion?
The fat man quickly peeked out from a hole in the wall, staring dumbfounded at the distance... at the massive gray dust storm that had risen from the explosion...
The fat man swallowed hard.
