I hacked through the chaotic world with my blade-Chapter 1331 - 316: He Is a Hero, but I’d Rather He Were Not

Chapter 1331: Chapter 316: He Is a Hero, but I’d Rather He Were Not

"Heh, you haven’t ventured outside, right? Do you even know what it’s like out there? Do you know that Lin Fan from Sunshine Shelter has been searching for you guys all along?"

"I know, but so what?"

"So what? He can crush me like an ant. Whether it’s a perfect mutant or Jin Poshan, in his eyes, they’re all insignificant. Any product of research is viewed the same way."

"Is that so? But that’s none of your concern." The second woman waved her hand, "Take him to the laboratory, I’ll handle it personally."

Having been injected with a suppressant, Cui Xiaofei was like meat on a chopping block. Moreover, with such injuries, even a random person could easily kill him.

Without looking back after saying this, the second woman walked straight ahead.

The remaining researchers exchanged glances and looked at the blood-stained cart with expressions of disgust. It was the dirty blood of a mutant; they didn’t even want to touch it.

Then, one of the researchers pointed at Cui Tian, "What are you staring at? Hurry up and push it."

"Yes," Cui Tian replied respectfully.

Even though their tone wasn’t pleasant, he could only agree with a smile.

The researchers swaggered off, following the second woman. What lay ahead was the dissection of Cui Xiaofei, a perfect mutant whose multiple gene chain unlocks held immense research value.

As for Cui Tian, they paid him no heed.

The liaison officer at headquarters was, of course, extremely loyal. It was necessary to be loyal, otherwise, there would be no chance of survival.

Just as Cui Tian thought he might have a chance to act, a young researcher returned halfway, his face displeased. Because of his youth, he was sent with Cui Tian by those old guys.

"What are you standing there for, hurry up!" The young researcher urged impatiently, seeing Cui Tian still standing dumbfounded.

"Oh."

Cui Tian pushed the cart along the corridor, with the young researcher silently leading the way. The base under the sea was large, belonging to the Deep Sea Base Laboratory.

Although it seemed very safe here, if an earthquake or something similar happened underwater, it could easily wreak havoc here.

At this moment, Cui Tian, pushing the cart, followed the young researcher for a distance.

There was a trash can in the passage ahead.

He glanced at it from the corner of his eye, continuing to push nonchalantly. Just as they passed it, he hurriedly picked up the trash can, and with a fierce expression, smashed it towards the researcher’s head.

Bam!

The researcher, suddenly struck, had blood oozing from his forehead. In disbelief, he turned shakily, pointing at Cui Tian, his vision obscured by blood and consciousness fading, he collapsed to the ground.

As this unfolded, the base’s artificial intelligence detected the situation and instantly sounded the alarm.

Cui Tian pulled out an electronic card he carried and swiped it at an electronic door, which opened. Hurriedly, he pushed the cart inside.

"What are you doing?" Cui Xiaofei, having already prepared for death, was stunned by Cui Tian’s unexpected actions, "You don’t have to do this, you can survive."

"Thank you for saving my daughter. I don’t want you to die. Stay here, you can surely hold on until Lin Fan comes to rescue you. In fact, I knew about your intentions long ago, and you had interactions with Lin Fan early on. You should have been discovered a while ago, but the monitors here are lazy; I often take over for them."

What Cui Tian said shocked Cui Xiaofei; he didn’t expect to have been watched all along, only to have someone helping him. In retrospect, as the most perfect mutant from headquarters, it was natural they were concerned.

But now was not the time for these thoughts.

"Come with me, hide in here; I can handle it after a short rest."

"No, I understand your intention, that’s why I injected you with the suppressant. You definitely wouldn’t just sit and do nothing, but the final outcome would be your death."

"What are you going to do?"

Cui Xiaofei, truly too weak to move, watched as Cui Tian retrieved weapons from a nearby arsenal, slinging them over himself before quickly heading out.

Cui Tian stood at the door, looking at the struggling-to-rise Cui Xiaofei, shaking his head with a smile.

"Good luck, I still prefer a future full of sunshine."

Cui Tian’s expression was resolute and unwavering.

The door closed.

Cui Xiaofei’s voice was completely muffled, silencing every sound.

"Drop the weapons, drop the weapons."

The voice of the artificial intelligence continued without pause.

Cui Tian picked up the gun, relentlessly shooting at the electronic lock on the wall, directly destroying the card-swiping machine. This door had been specially modified by headquarters to effectively withstand the strength of mutants.

To destroy it with sheer force would require a mutant reaching a certain level of strength, but unfortunately, headquarters would never allow a perfectly intact mutant to appear here.

Footsteps approached.

"Are you seeking death?"

The second woman’s face was stormy enough to drip water. She hadn’t expected anyone to defy her will; in her view, it was a death wish.

Cui Tian looked at them, and without a second thought, raised his gun, unleashing a barrage on them.

Tat-tat-tat-tat...

As the bullets neared them, an invisible barrier appeared, blocking all the projectiles, which then fell to the ground like raindrops, scattering everywhere.

Meanwhile.

The artificial intelligence responded.

Red dots targeted Cui Tian’s head and heart.

"Neutralize the traitor."

Bang!

Bang!

Bullets struck Cui Tian, one shot piercing his head, another shattering his heart.
