Chapter 243: Emergency Activation Protocol
The gate opened slowly.
The hearts of Chu Zhao and his two companions sank bit by bit.
As the gate opened, the sound of guns, shouting, and screams continued to come from outside.
There was also a winding trail of blood, slithering like a snake, entering through the gate and seeping into the thick carpet.
Chu Zhao was fine.
Chu Tianyou managed to stay calm.
Chu Tianmei’s face had turned pale.
How much blood would it take for blood to flow like this?
At this moment, the door had opened up a space for people to pass through.
The Chu family of three watched as a young man with black hair and red eyes, filled with a sinister aura, dragged a body into the room.
*sigh*
He threw the body in front of the Chu family.
It turned out to be a snake almost split in half!
Chu Tianyou raised his gun, feeling anger surging in his chest, couldn’t help but shout out that name, “Luo Yan!”
Luo Yan glanced over.
At that moment, he was still maintaining the ‘Dragon Transformation’, feeling malice churning in his chest, but still within a controllable range.
Later.
No words were spoken.
Chu Tianyou pressed the button.
Luo Yan walked towards him.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The bullets were weakened by Luo Yan’s water-based magic and then hit the mystical art “Iron Armor,” creating sparks upon impact.
When they hit Luo Yan, they only left faint marks that quickly disappeared.
Not to mention that Luo Yan had activated Elemental Power and used “Iron Armor.”
Even without these, the dragon scales from ‘Dragon Transformation’ alone were enough to withstand handgun bullets.
Chu Tianyou’s attack was doomed from the start.
And with that, Luo Yan walked up to him.
Face to face with this middle-aged man.
Chu Tianyou fired another shot.
The bullet pierced through Elemental Power and mystical art, hitting Luo Yan’s forehead, ricocheting back as a stray bullet.
Grazing past Chu Tianyou’s cheek.
Immediately.
Blood trickled down Chu Tianyou’s cheek.
Chu Zhao then shouted, “Wait…”
As his words trailed off.
Luo Yan punched Chu Tianyou in the stomach.
Chu Tianyou flew up, his clothes burst into thousands of butterflies behind him.
Pieces of clothing scattered in the air.
He fell to the ground, clutching his stomach, eyes wide open in shock.
And then there was silence.
“Did you kill him?”
Chu Tianmei screamed uncontrollably, “You killed my brother!”
“You’re a devil!”
“Why are you trying to exterminate our Chu family?”
“You…”
In Chu Tianmei’s eyes, a cold light flashed.
Then she took several steps back.
She couldn’t breathe, subconsciously covering her neck with her hand, only to feel a warm palm.
Chu Tianmei raised both hands in front of her eyes.
Her palms were covered in blood!
Thud.
Chu Tianmei fell to the ground, like a fish out of water, gasping for air with her mouth wide open.
She looked towards her father.
Slowly stopped breathing.
Chu Zhao stood there, staring blankly at the pair of children on the ground.
No roaring.
No cursing.
Just feeling completely empty, lost and confused.
Footsteps approached.
Shen Biao entered.
Covered in some green and blue bloodstains.
Obviously left by a biological weapon.
He glanced at the body on the ground, then looked at Chu Zhao.
“Chu Zhao, you are under arrest.”
“You will be charged with endangering the safety of the underground city.”
“Come back with us now.”
“Do not resist unnecessarily, or we have the authority to use force.”
Only then did Chu Zhao come to his senses, with his hands behind his back, quietly sliding out a small syringe from his sleeve.
He pricked his other middle finger with it.
He proudly said, “I, Chu, do not need others to criticize my actions.”
Upon hearing this, Luo Yan squinted slightly.
Chu Zhao then looked at Luo Yan and Shen Biao and said, “You are good students, no matter what Qingyang City thinks.”
“All of you, Chu is waiting for you in hell!”
Suddenly.
Chu Zhao spat out some foam.
Then he fell to the ground, convulsing all over.
By the time Shen Biao rushed to check on him, his heart had stopped beating.
He killed himself!
Shen Biao glanced at the syringe lying on the ground and grunted, “The old man got off easy.”
That’s the truth.
If Chu Zhao didn’t commit suicide, he would surely be publicly interrogated when he returned.
At that time, his reputation would definitely be ruined.
For someone like him, suicide is easier than losing his reputation.
With the deaths of the Chu family, the base was officially taken over by the Green Sun Corps.
Shen Biao threw a stack of documents on the table and exclaimed angrily, “Look at this old man, his ambitions are not small.”
“He had long planned to use this ‘artificial giant beast’ to threaten Qingyang City, and then put his younger brother Chu Mo on the City Lord’s throne.”
“These brothers had been plotting for a long time, and Chu Zhao was able to take down this abandoned base without attracting attention because Chu Mo helped him.”
Luo Yan, who was being examined by medical personnel, lifted his head upon hearing this and asked, “What about Chu Mo?”
“When we were on a mission, another team went to visit the Finance Minister, and at the same time, they closed the city gates, not letting anyone out.”
Shen Biao said, “Can we get Chu Zhao to run, and also convince his brother to run?”
As he was speaking, his phone rang.
Shen Biao took it out to look, then awkwardly laughed, “Okay, just got a notification.”
“Chu Mo committed suicide at home.”
“Why do these brothers like to commit suicide so much?”
Hearing about Chu Mo’s suicide, Luo Yan felt a huge relief.
With the help of various forces, the Chu family was finally completely eliminated, removing this major threat.
They could now rest easy for the future.
And at that moment.
The base alarm rang again.
Luo Yan and Shen Biao were both startled.
Then they heard hurried footsteps approaching.
A team member rushed in, “Uh-oh, captain!”
“Artificial giant beast.”
“The artificial giant beast has been activated!”
Shen Biao nearly jumped up, “What, how did it get activated?”
“I’m not sure either.”
The team member shook his head, “I heard the engineer say that some kind of emergency activation protocol has been triggered.”
“Where is the engineer?”
Shen Biao banged the table, “Are you not bringing the engineer here as well!”
The team member looked helpless, then someone arrived.
Two more team members pushed in a man in a white long coat with glasses.
“Captain, this is the base’s biological engineer.”
The engineer hurriedly said, “I am just assisting, the main person in charge of this project is not me.”
Shen Biao pointed at him, “Then you should at least know why the giant beast was activated, right?”
The engineer nodded, “I suspect the emergency activation protocol was triggered.”
“This protocol can bypass the formal activation procedure. I heard the supervisor say that this protocol is linked to Mr. Chu’s life signs.”
“When Mr. Chu’s vital signs disappear for more than 20 minutes, it will take effect.”
Luo Yan immediately understood.
The giant beast started because Chu Zhao died!
No wonder he said ‘I’ll be waiting for you in hell’ before dying.
This old man still had a trick up his sleeve until the end.
Shen Biao also understood, shouting, “There must be some kind of emergency brake device, right?”
Before the engineer could reply, the room, and even the entire underground base, began to shake.
Faint roars of the giant beast could be heard from outside, followed by a continuous fall of dust above the house.
