Chapter 188: Liu Liansha’s Crisis
They were at the Starfish Hotel in the downtown area of Jianghai City,” the person replied.
Starfish Hotel?
Liu Liansha’s expression changed.
Isn’t this the hotel where she’s staying!?
“Bang bang bang…”
Just then, someone started knocking urgently on her hotel room door!
Liu Liansha looked at the door, her heart pounding and face turning pale.
She knew whoever was outside the door couldn’t be friendly.
Very likely, it was the team from the gene laboratory that her informant mentioned!
How did they find this place? Why did they come looking for her?
If they were looking for someone, shouldn’t they be looking for Fang Yu!?
“Could it be that I’ve been exposed…”
Thinking of this possibility, Liu Liansha’s face grew even paler, her hands starting to shake.
She had many informants under her, and any one of them could have sold her out for profit.
If that’s true, this would be big trouble.
Fang Yu is currently an enemy of the entire Dark List, and since Liu Liansha works for Fang Yu, doesn’t that mean she’s also standing against the Dark List!?
“Bang bang bang…”
The knocking on the door became more urgent.
No matter what, she had to escape quickly!
Liu Liansha looked around and ran to the floor-to-ceiling window.
But this window wasn’t the opening type – it was sealed!
Moreover, this was the 33rd floor, with a drop of nearly a hundred meters outside.
Liu Liansha was only a half-step grandmaster; falling from a hundred meters would surely turn her into paste.
“Bang bang bang!”
The knocking outside grew louder, then suddenly stopped!
Liu Liansha knew they were about to break down the door!
“What should I do!?” Liu Liansha’s face was deathly pale, her body trembling.
Right! Her master was staying nearby in Lijiang District!
She immediately grabbed her phone from the table and dialed Su Lengyun’s number.
“Bang!”
But just as she dialed the number, the door was pushed open.
“Tap tap tap…”
Footsteps sounded as five people walked in from outside.
“Liu Liansha, codename Fox, Dark List rank 67,” the leading man said in a mechanical voice.
Of the five people who entered the room, there were three men and two women.
The three men were all muscular, their skin giving off a faint bronze metallic sheen.
The two women were the same, with voluptuous figures and extremely muscular limbs, exuding strength.
All five weren’t Asian, and they each wore a green-glowing lens over their left eye.
This lens was identical to the glasses worn by that superhuman Caesar before.
Clearly, these people were gene-modified humans from the gene laboratory!
“What, what do you want?” Liu Liansha kept backing away as she faced the five people.
“Ring, ring, ring…”
Meanwhile, she had connected to Su Lengyun’s number, but no one was answering.
“Please pick up, Master… if you don’t answer, your disciple won’t survive.” Liu Liansha was extremely anxious.
“We are here on the Doctor’s orders to capture Fang Yu for laboratory research,” the leading man said. “Also, you collected intelligence for Fang Yu and caused Caesar’s death, so the Doctor wants us to eliminate you as well.”
Liu Liansha’s whole body trembled, her face turning deathly pale.
Still no one answered the phone.
“Put down the phone. Fang Yu will soon be captured too, but you won’t be around to see it.” Another man stepped forward and said coldly.
These people, after modification, were like robots – their expressions rigid, their tones flat, like cold system prompts.
“You two go deal with her,” the leading man said to the two women behind him.
The women nodded and walked toward Liu Liansha.
Liu Liansha’s heart was racing, filled with panic.
But she knew that the more panicked she became, the lower her chances of survival would be.
Must stay calm! Calm!
Liu Liansha steadied herself and put her hand in her pocket, where she kept her bewitching incense.
Then she waved her hand forward.
A pale gas immediately spread throughout the room.
“Detecting gas in the air, composition contains dokacin… gas currently dispersing in room, recommend temporarily shutting down olfactory functions.” An emotionless system prompt sounded simultaneously in all five people’s minds.
“Drugs… don’t work on us.” The two women showed rigid smiles as they slowly approached Liu Liansha.
“Swoosh!”
Suddenly, both women’s hands transformed into cold, gleaming blades.
The bewitching incense had no effect, making Liu Liansha feel desperate.
Liu Liansha bit her lip and darted to the side.
She had to escape immediately – only by getting out of the room would she have a chance to survive!
“Slash!”
Before Liu Liansha could run two steps, one woman’s palm transformed into a gun barrel, shooting a laser beam that instantly burned a hole in the floor in front of Liu Liansha.
Liu Liansha rushed in another direction.
“Bang!”
At that moment, a tremendous force struck her, sending her flying back to crash heavily into the room’s sofa.
The other woman retracted the cannon from her hand, looking at Liu Liansha.
“Target has sustained heavy damage, combat power remaining at 120, can proceed with direct elimination.” The system prompted.
The two women approached Liu Liansha slowly, holding their blades.
“Hey, Liansha?” Just then, Su Lengyun answered Liu Liansha’s call.
“Hello?” But she didn’t hear Liu Liansha’s voice.
At this moment, the two women had reached Liu Liansha and raised their blades, about to strike down.
Blood trickled from Liu Liansha’s mouth, her face full of despair.
She didn’t want to die, but it seemed there was no escape today.
“Wait, don’t kill her yet, bring her here,” the leading man said.
The women’s hands, which were about to strike down, stopped.
They retracted their blades back into hands, then grabbed Liu Liansha’s hair and lifted her up.
“Ah…”
Liu Liansha felt a sharp pain and screamed.
This scream was heard by Su Lengyun, who was still on the call.
…
In Lijiang District, Su Lengyun immediately put down her phone and walked to the door.
She was certain that Liu Liansha was in trouble!
She hurriedly opened her front door and saw Fang Yu.
Fang Yu was holding two bags of groceries he’d just bought from the supermarket, including a prepared chicken.
“Where are you going?” Fang Yu asked, seeing Su Lengyun’s anxious expression.
“Brother Yu, something’s happened to Liansha, I need to go save her.” Su Lengyun bit her lip.
When Liu Liansha’s parents sent her to Frost Cold Palace, they had asked Su Lengyun to take care of her.
If anything happened to Liu Liansha, how could Su Lengyun face her parents?
“Don’t worry, let me check where she is,” Fang Yu patted Su Lengyun’s shoulder and said.
Fang Yu focused his thoughts and determined her location through the curse mark he had left on Liu Liansha.
He also saw those gene-modified humans.
“Hey, who are these people?” Fang Yu’s voice appeared in Liu Liansha’s mind.
Liu Liansha, who had been in despair, suddenly trembled and quickly responded in her mind: “Fang Yu, come save me! I’m in room 3311 on the 33rd floor of Starfish Hotel, come quickly! If you can’t come, at least let my master come!”
“I’m outside with your master now, quite far from you. We might not make it in time.” Seeing Liu Liansha so panicked, Fang Yu couldn’t help but tease her.
“You, you tell my master! Tell her my life is in danger, she’ll definitely come!” Liu Liansha was about to cry.
The situation was extremely critical – her head was under the blade of these gene mutants, and with just a thought, they could take her head off.
Actually, by this time, Fang Yu and Su Lengyun were already heading to Starfish Hotel.
“Your master says this is a good training opportunity and wants you to figure out how to escape on your own.” Fang Yu said.
“I, I…” Liu Liansha lost all hope.
“Alright, try to stall them. Your master is already rushing over, moving so fast I can barely keep up with her.” Fang Yu said helplessly.
At this moment, Su Lengyun had transformed into a streak of light, speeding toward Starfish Hotel.
And Fang Yu was following behind her, running on the ground.
…
Starfish Hotel.
“Not only did you give Fang Yu information about Caesar, you also gave him information about many assassins on the Dark List… if this gets out on the dark web, you won’t survive three days.” The leading man looked at Liu Liansha and said emotionlessly.
“What, what do you really want?” Liu Liansha’s originally rosy lips had turned white.
“I told you, we want to capture Fang Yu for research, and kill you.” The man said.
“Her information is worthless to me, kill her as revenge for Caesar.” Just then, an androgynous voice sounded in the man’s mind.
“Yes, Doctor.” The man answered, and gave one of the women behind him a look.
“Swoosh!”
The woman’s right hand immediately transformed into a blade.
She raised her hand, swinging toward Liu Liansha’s neck.
“Crash!”
At that moment, the living room’s floor-to-ceiling window suddenly shattered.
