Chapter 2089: This is the Central Guards Brigade! How dare you cause trouble here?!
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Many people have said that the Central Guards Brigade in Yanjing is impenetrable, and now I see they weren’t wrong.”
“That’s why you need to finish your business as quickly as possible,” Fang Jing said.
“As I mentioned before, you only have thirty minutes. If it takes longer than that, I’ll leave on my own.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t need that much time. Once I’m inside, I’ll burn everything. Ten minutes should be enough.”
“How you handle it is your business; it has nothing to do with me.”
Walker smiled. “I think the time is about right. We can start now.”
“Let’s go.”
…
At 2 a.m., in the underground laboratory on the third floor of the research institute, the experiment was still ongoing.
Lin Yi’s experiment had yet to conclude.
“It seems like we’re almost there. How do you feel now?”
“It feels numb and swollen, but it’s manageable.”
“Because the process has gone on for so long, you’re experiencing a tingling sensation,” Li Hang explained.
“But the main reason is that the muscles in your arms have been further activated, leading to expansion and deformation, which is causing this sensation.”
“Expansion?”
“Yes. After the experiment ends, your arm muscles will swell, but in two or three days, they’ll return to normal. This is proof that your potential has been activated.”
“Understood.”
“Team Leader Lin, hold on a bit longer. In about half an hour, the experiment will be over,” Xu Lan said.
“No problem. I usually stay up late anyway, so I’m used to this.”
“That’s not a good habit,” Li Hang chuckled. “You may still be young, but you should take care of your health.”
“Living healthy is not an option for me. I’ll just focus on conserving my energy.”
“Haha, with a face like yours, I can see why.”
Xu Lan, standing nearby, rolled her eyes.
These men sure were something.
They were completely oblivious to her presence.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Just as Lin Yi and Li Hang were about to continue their conversation, an alarm suddenly went off, and a red light on the wall began flashing.
“Huh? What’s going on?”
“It looks like someone entered,” Li Hang said, frowning.
“Normally, at this time, only the four of us should be able to come in, right?” Lin Yi asked.
“Could it be Elder Lu or Elder Liang?”
“They’re both so old. If they wanted to come, they’d have done so during the day, not at this hour,” Lin Yi quipped.
“Messing around at this time of night is a quick way to meet an early end.”
“I’ll go check it out.”
The sudden alarm heightened the group’s alertness.
However, no one seemed overly concerned.
After all, this was the Central Guards Brigade. Who would dare intrude without cause?
Xu Lan walked out of the room, and all three men directed their gaze toward the door, waiting to hear what was going on.
Ah!
Then, out of nowhere, they heard a scream.
And then, silence.
“That was Little Xu’s voice!”
The three exchanged uneasy glances. Sensing something was wrong, Ning Che quickly said,
“You two stay here. I’ll check it out!”
“I’m coming with you!” Li Hang insisted.
“I may be a researcher, but I’m still at E-class, and there are guns in the lab. If something goes wrong, I can help.”
“Alright!”
“I’ll come too!” Lin Yi volunteered.
