Chapter 92: Trading the Extreme Cold Core (Part 2)

The next morning, Lin Chen, Xia Nuan, and A Kai had a simple breakfast in the villa. A Kai's injuries had improved a bit,

and he could walk on his own, but his left arm and left leg couldn't exert force, and he insisted on following them to the abandoned factory.

Lin Chen couldn't refuse him, so he had to agree, telling him to be responsible for support in the armored vehicle and not to get close to the inside of the factory.

The three of them packed their weapons,

Lin Chen took the Purple Lightning Purification Gun and the Extreme Cold Core's locator—this was sent over when the mysterious person contacted him for the second time yesterday, and it could accurately locate the core on the third underground level.

Xia Nuan carried the sniper rifle, and A Kai held a pistol, sitting in the passenger seat, ready to deal with any emergencies at any time.

The armored vehicle drove toward the abandoned factory in the west of the city; the road was very quiet, and they didn't encounter any zombies or experimental guardians.

Half an hour later, the car stopped in a hidden spot near the factory. Lin Chen said to A Kai: "You wait here,

Xia Nuan and I will go in to get the Extreme Cold Core, and we'll come back immediately after we get it." A Kai nodded: "You guys be careful,

I'll watch the car, and if there's a situation, I'll send you a signal."

Lin Chen and Xia Nuan got out of the car and approached the factory gate quietly. There were no guards at the gate, only two surveillance cameras rotating.

Xia Nuan took out a dagger and threw it at the camera; the camera was smashed, and the screen instantly went black.

The two seized the opportunity to rush into the factory and, following the locator's guidance, walked toward the entrance to the third underground level.

The inside of the factory was empty, with only the sound of machinery running echoing. Walking to the entrance of the third underground level,

two guards were standing at the door, leaning against the wall and dozing off. Lin Chen and Xia Nuan looked at each other,

and rushed over at the same time; Lin Chen covered one guard's mouth with his hand, and Xia Nuan stabbed the other guard in the chest with her dagger. The two guards soon fell, without making any sound.

The two walked into the third underground level; inside was a huge laboratory, and on a platform in the middle was a transparent container,

filled with blue liquid, and a blue crystal the size of a fist was floating in the center of the liquid—it was the Extreme Cold Core. There were no guards beside the container, only a few instruments flashing with lights.

"That's it," Lin Chen walked to the container and observed carefully, "We have to be careful not to break it.

" Xia Nuan stood guard on the side and said: "Take it quickly, and let's get out of here after we get it; it's too quiet here,

and I always feel something is wrong." Lin Chen nodded, found the switch for the container, and pressed the button.

The container opened slowly, the Extreme Cold Core floated out, and Lin Chen reached out to catch it, putting it into a thermal insulation box he had prepared in advance.

Just as he put the insulation box into his backpack, Lin Chen's communicator rang; it was the mysterious person calling.

"Did you get the Extreme Cold Core?" The mysterious person's voice carried a smile, "Now, come to the rooftop of the factory,

and we'll make the trade." Lin Chen frowned: "Didn't you say just tell me the location?

Why go to the rooftop?" The other party said: "Only when I see the Extreme Cold Core will I tell you what you want to know. Don't worry, I won't lie to you."

Lin Chen and Xia Nuan had to walk toward the top floor. The rooftop was empty,

only a person in a black cloak standing on the edge, with his back to them. "Did you bring the Extreme Cold Core?

" The person turned around, wearing a mask, and his true face couldn't be seen.

Lin Chen held up the insulation box: "I brought it, now it's your turn to fulfill your promise, tell me what you promised me."

The person smiled and said: "What do you want to know? Oh, I forgot,

you didn't seem to say specifically what you wanted to know." Lin Chen's face instantly changed: "Are you playing with me?

You clearly said you'd tell me what I wanted to know, why are you reneging now?" The person spread his hands: "I didn't say I would tell you anything; you thought I knew what you wanted to know yourself.

However, if you give me the Extreme Cold Core, I can consider telling you some trivial things."

"You're looking for death!" Lin Chen shouted angrily, raising the Purple Lightning Purification Gun at the person. But the person suddenly rushed over, his speed astonishing, and punched Lin Chen in the chest.

Lin Chen was knocked back a few steps and spat out a mouthful of blood. Xia Nuan hurriedly fired, but the person blocked the bullet with his hand, and the bullet fell to the ground.

The person swung a punch at Xia Nuan, and Xia Nuan was knocked to the ground, the sniper rifle falling to the side.

Lin Chen seized the opportunity to stand up, mobilized his Absolute Zero ability, and shot ice spikes at the person. The person dodged to the side and punched Lin Chen in the face again; Lin Chen's nose bled, and he fell to the ground.

"With just this little ability, you still want to fight me?" The person walked to Lin Chen's side and stepped on his chest,

"I'll take the Extreme Cold Core, as for what you want to know, ask in your next life.

" Lin Chen lay on the ground, trembling with anger, cursing constantly: "You liar! I won't let you go! You deserve to die!"

Just then, the blackening factor in Lin Chen's body suddenly became restless, and the consciousness of the blackened form rang in his mind: "Can you be a little useful?

Being beaten like this and only knowing how to curse, like a piece of trash!" Lin Chen was stunned;

this was the first time he had clearly heard the voice of the blackened form. "Who are you?" he asked in his heart. "I am you, the dark side you dare not face!

" The blackened form's voice carried mockery, "Watch, I'll help you deal with this liar!"

The next second, Lin Chen's eyes turned deep purple, and intense cold air radiated from his body.

He pushed away the person stepping on his chest, stood up, and stared at the opponent with cold eyes. The person was stunned, clearly not expecting Lin Chen to suddenly become stronger.

The blackened form of Lin Chen didn't speak, rushed over directly, and punched the person in the chest. The person was knocked flying, hit the rooftop railing, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The person struggled to stand up, wanting to run away. The blackened form of Lin Chen instantly caught up,

grabbed his shoulder, and twisted with force. "Crack," the person's shoulder was twisted off,

and he let out a scream. Lin Chen punched his chest continuously, the person's ribs breaking one by one, and he fell to the ground, unable to climb up again.

"That's more like it," the blackened form of Lin Chen said to Lin Chen on the ground, "Don't be so useless in the future."

With that, the blackened form receded, and Lin Chen returned to normal, looking at the person on the ground who had already stopped breathing,

his heart full of mixed feelings. Xia Nuan walked over, supporting Lin Chen: "Are you okay? You seemed like a different person just now." Lin Chen shook his head: "I'm fine, let's leave here quickly."

The two picked up their weapons and ran downstairs. A Kai saw them return,

hurriedly opened the car door: "How is it? Did you get the Extreme Cold Core?" Lin Chen nodded,

handing the insulation box to A Kai: "Got it, but encountered some trouble, it's fine now. Let's go back to the villa quickly."

The armored vehicle started and drove toward Sky Dome Villa. On the road,

Xia Nuan asked: "Who exactly was that mysterious person? Why did he want the Extreme Cold Core?" Lin Chen shook his head: "I don't know, but he's already dead,

and there shouldn't be anyone looking for trouble with us in the future." A Kai also said: "No matter what, we got the Extreme Cold Core and stopped He Shao's plan, that's enough."

The car soon drove to the villa entrance, the three got out and walked into the villa. The hamster saw them in its cage,

squeaking excitedly. Lin Chen put the Extreme Cold Core into the Infinite Space and said to the two: "Let's rest for a while, and we'll figure out how to deal with the Extreme Cold Core tomorrow,

and see if there's any movement from He Shao's side." Xia Nuan and A Kai nodded and found places to rest.

The villa returned to calm, with only the wind and snow outside continuing to fall. ===== CHAPTER 93 =====
