Chapter 577: The Demon's True Form

This woman is fast, but there is someone beside Chen Jiajun even faster than her.

Lao E, filled with killing intent, could no longer hold back; clearly seeing the woman charge directly at the boss, he also decisively made his move.

With a single kick, he sent the woman flying back at an even greater speed, slamming her fiercely into the wall and causing it to cave in.

The woman looked at the man in sunglasses before her in disbelief; she had not expected anyone to be faster than her.

Refusing to accept it, she charged over again, the knife in her hand piercing toward Lao E's heart with a sound of tearing air.

Unfortunately, with just a turn, Lao E made the knife in the woman's hand graze his clothes and miss entirely.

Afterward, Lao E pressed down on the woman's head and smashed it fiercely into the wall, then snatched the knife from her hand and began to swing it rapidly.

Lao E's speed was faster than the woman's swings; the blade light connected, rolling over her like a wheel.

When the blade light dissipated, the woman looked as if she had been subjected to death by a thousand cuts.

……

Meanwhile, inside the Laboratory.

Ju Ziyun was dragging Manager Bai by the leg through the Laboratory, searching for the whereabouts of the Potion.

Manager Bai roared at Ju Ziyun in pain: "Damn you, how dare you... lay a hand on your creator!"

Ju Ziyun had no intention of paying her any mind and continued searching inside the Laboratory. But just then, Ju Ziyun stopped in her tracks, as if she had discovered something.

The next moment, several figures charged over rapidly, and Ju Ziyun was sent flying by a powerful force.

Her entire body was knocked into a room.

Ju Ziyun patted the dust off her body and stood up; the impact she had just received had not injured her at all.

Instead, Ju Ziyun said to the young nobleman who had suddenly appeared before her: "It's only been a short while, but you've gotten stronger!"

"Damn it!" the young nobleman cursed at Ju Ziyun.

Ju Ziyun looked at him and said with a smile: "I should have killed you that night!"

"Then why didn't you kill me? Otherwise, you wouldn't be dying at my hands today!" the young nobleman provoked her directly.

"You're still the same as before, full of nonsense!" Ju Ziyun said indifferently.

"You're the one who's the same as before, not taking your brother here seriously!" The young nobleman picked at his ear and said calmly: "I advise you to be careful; I'm not the same as I was before!"

Ju Ziyun said with a smile: "What for? You should know that your level is different from mine."

As she spoke, Ju Ziyun vanished directly from the young nobleman's sight, then slammed him into the wall and lifted him up by his throat.

The young nobleman tried to strike back with his fists, but Ju Ziyun intercepted him, acting after him but arriving first.

"So slow! You're still the same as before!" Ju Ziyun mocked, throwing the young nobleman away.

Both Superpower users possessed terrifying strength and speed.

They turned into a demolition squad; every punch and collision left a deep crater in the sturdy walls.

However, in terms of ability alone, Ju Ziyun was indeed more than one grade stronger than the young nobleman.

Even in close-quarters combat, he was completely suppressed by Ju Ziyun.

Ju Ziyun was in no rush to kill him; instead, she slapped the young nobleman across the face one after another, humiliating him to her heart's content.

The young nobleman was instantly enraged and used all his methods.

Telekinesis, punches, kicks, and firearms were all used, but he was still pinned down by Ju Ziyun's foot.

"You're still the same as before, you haven't won a single time!" Ju Ziyun mocked.

But just at this moment, two abrupt gunshots rang out.

They struck Ju Ziyun's shoulder directly, forcing her to her knees.

Turning her head, she saw a man wearing gloves walk over, saying in a flippant tone: "Perfect shot! Why are you two fighting? You're both monsters anyway; don't worry, I'll see you off properly."

Seeing that her savior had arrived, Manager Bai immediately clamored: "Mr. Cui, shoot, blow their heads off, kill those two monsters!"

Unfortunately, Mr. Cui had come this time to take revenge on Manager Bai.

After all, it was she who had ordered the killing of the genetics expert, cutting off Mr. Cui's path.

It was clear how much Mr. Cui hated this woman.

So he raised his muzzle directly and pulled the Trigger on Manager Bai.

Manager Bai was just an ordinary person; she had already been battered and bruised by Ju Ziyun, and with her thigh shot through, she had already lost too much blood.

If she took another two shots, she certainly wouldn't survive.

"You can't kill this person!"

At this moment, an indifferent voice came from behind Mr. Cui, scaring him so much that the hair on his body stood on end.

Then Mr. Cui saw a group of strangers appear behind him.

Silently and soundlessly, like ghosts.

This made Mr. Cui immediately want to fire back, then roll on the ground to dodge the opponent's attack.

"Tsk, so these are the first-generation Modified Humans? They look quite average!" A protective shield appeared on Chen Jiajun, blocking Mr. Cui's bullets directly.

Then Dumu charged over and lifted Mr. Cui up.

"Who... are you people?" Seeing the other party restrain Mr. Cui so easily, Manager Bai said in astonishment.

Chen Jiajun did not answer Manager Bai's question, but said to Ya Qi: "Heal this Manager Bai, don't let her die!"

Ya Qi nodded and, feeling a bit of heartache, fed a trace of Senzu Bean powder to Manager Bai.

A golden beam of light shone on Manager Bai, and a miraculous scene immediately occurred.

The wounds on Manager Bai's body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, just like the Super Speed Regeneration ability of these Superpower users.

This scene, falling into the eyes of the young nobleman and Ju Ziyun, caused both of them to feel a sense of disbelief.

After all, these Superpower users could at most use telekinesis; where had they ever seen such a thing?

Chen Jiajun looked at the few people present and chuckled, saying: "It seems I'm in luck. First-generation Modified Humans, second-generation Modified Humans, perfect-body Modified Humans, and the person in charge of executing this project—all gathered at once. This is truly great!"

Manager Bai looked at these strangers before her with a surprised expression and said, "Who are you people?"

Chen Jiajun said indifferently, "Who we are is not important; I need all of you to come with me for a trip!"

"Why? Mister!" Ju Ziyun stood up from the ground, patted the dust off her body, and said, "Are you planning to kidnap us?"

Chen Jiajun looked at Ju Ziyun, smiled, and said, "If that's how you want to put it, that's fine too!"

Ju Ziyun shook her head and said, "But Mister, we are not lambs waiting to be slaughtered!"

Saying this, Ju Ziyun charged directly toward Chen Jiajun.

She had figured it out: among this group, Chen Jiajun was definitely the absolute leader.

As long as she took him down, everything else would be easy to handle.

Unfortunately, just as Ju Ziyun rushed over, she was blocked by a man wearing sunglasses.

The fist she swung out was easily caught by the man.

Even though Ju Ziyun's punch was a probe, the fact that someone could catch her punch was enough to surprise her.

But before Ju Ziyun could finish being surprised, a bone-chilling killing intent made her feel a palpitation.

It felt as if she would definitely die if she didn't dodge! The sensitive Ju Ziyun immediately withdrew and retreated violently, and then a sharp blade light flashed past her neck.

Then Ju Ziyun saw that the man wearing sunglasses had two crescent-like blades in his hands.

The sharpness of those blades was such that even just looking at them made one feel a stinging pain.

This was the first time Lao E had displayed his powerful combat abilities since being summoned by Chen Jiajun.

Ju Ziyun stared at Lao E with a solemn expression; the man before her put much more pressure on her than the Nobleman did.

What's more, the few guys behind Chen Jiajun with the same attire didn't even have the intention to make a move, their gazes appearing as if they were watching a good show, which made Ju Ziyun feel even more inclined to retreat.

She only wanted to find the Potion that Manager Bai used to suppress her abilities and then leave this place.

So the next moment, Ju Ziyun actually turned around and wanted to flee.

Unfortunately, Lao E had long since seen through her actions and directly raised his hand, aiming at Ju Ziyun.

A beam of ghostly blue light erupted from Lao E's palm and directly struck Ju Ziyun, who was trying to escape.

And this beam from Lao E, after hitting Ju Ziyun, made the girl feel a sense of emptiness in her body, and she collapsed on the spot.

This scene made the hearts of Manager Bai, the Nobleman, Mr. Cui, and others twitch.

One must know that this girl, Ju Ziyun, was the most powerful individual among their Superpower users.

Even if they all went up together, they might not be Ju Ziyun's match, yet in front of this man in sunglasses, she was just like a little lamb.

After a blue beam hit Ju Ziyun, the aura on this girl weakened visibly to the naked eye; at this moment, she didn't even have the strength to stand up.

Seeing that Lao E still wanted to go up and finish her off, Chen Jiajun immediately stopped him and said, "I still have use for these people!"

Although Lao E was unwilling, he dared not defy Chen Jiajun's order and could only put away his weapons and stand behind Chen Jiajun.

Stopping Lao E from a massacre, Chen Jiajun smiled at the few people and said, "Behave and come with me! My patience is limited!" Ju Ziyun climbed up from the ground with difficulty and muttered to herself, "I didn't expect there to be monsters in this world!"

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "That's because the world you've seen is only this tiny little piece! Let's go!"

Ju Ziyun looked at Chen Jiajun curiously and said, "Aren't you afraid we'll escape halfway?"

"Does it matter? It is impossible for you to escape from my hands!" Chen Jiajun said indifferently, then had his subordinates take the few people and lift them up.

On the other side, the people from the Information Department had already turned the entire Laboratory upside down.

They took away most of Manager Bai's data, as well as the kind of Potion she used for Ju Ziyun.

Ju Ziyun accepted reality and did not resist again, instead pointing at the Senzu Bean powder in Chen Jiajun's hand and saying, "Can you give me some of this?"

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "Of course, no problem, but don't you feel that the symptoms that were about to kill you have already eased quite a bit?"

Superpower users are all based on Evil Energy; their bodies are too fragile to accept the transformation of Evil Energy.

That is why situations like Ju Ziyun's happen.

But just now, Lao E's beam of Evil Energy burned away a lot of the Evil Energy inside Ju Ziyun's body, so naturally, the previous symptoms were gone.

Ju Ziyun immediately widened her eyes and felt it; it was truly as Chen Jiajun had said.

The previous feeling that seemed to make her explode had disappeared.

Instead, she felt an unprecedented weakness.

Seeing Ju Ziyun's expression, Manager Bai was also very surprised.

One must know that she had studied this project for so long and had no way to completely solve the problem on Ju Ziyun.

But this mysterious man before her seemed to be able to do it.

This caused her mad scientist personality to erupt: "How were you able to solve the problem on Ju Ziyun?"

Chen Jiajun glanced at her and said indifferently, "Now is not the time for you to ask questions; we'll talk when we get to the place!"

After everyone got into the car, Chen Jiajun had his Information Officer set fire to the Laboratory, and then immediately left with these people.

After returning to the Safe House of the Information Department, everyone finally felt relieved.

After all, Chen Jiajun didn't want to provoke the Hanguo government, and the fewer people who knew about this kind of thing, the better.

After returning to the Safe House, Chen Jiajun handed Manager Bai over to Bai Lu.

After all, the woman before him didn't look like a simple character; getting her to tell the truth was better left to a professional.

As for Chen Jiajun, Lao E, and the others, they sought out Ju Ziyun and the Nobleman.

"How is it? Is the level of Evil Energy in these two people's bodies still salvageable?" Chen Jiajun said to Lao E.

Lao E shook his head directly and said, "The Evil Energy in their bodies cannot be removed. These people don't know what method they used, but they injected Evil Energy directly into their bodies and changed their body structures, allowing them to be more adaptable to this energy!"

"Tsk, this is troublesome!" Chen Jiajun said with some irritation.

This stuff called Evil Energy doesn't belong to this world in the first place; if it continues to spread in this world, heaven knows what kind of things it will attract.

Ju Ziyun and the Nobleman heard the conversation between Chen Jiajun and Lao E and couldn't help but ask curiously, "This... Mister, may I ask what you mean by Evil Energy?"

The two were originally Modified Humans and Superpower users; just as the Nobleman said before, as long as they wanted to, they could learn a skill very quickly, and of course, that included languages.

Therefore, Chen Jiajun and Lao E's words were both understood by them.

Chen Jiajun said indifferently, "Do you think you were simply genetically modified?"

"Isn't that the case?" Ju Ziyun asked, frowning.

Chen Jiajun said indifferently, "Although the mysteries of the human body are infinite, do you really think that with the current level of civilization, it is possible to achieve what you are now?"

This sentence immediately stumped both Ju Ziyun and the Nobleman.

Their Super Speed Regeneration, telekinesis, and powerful strength and speed had clearly exceeded the scope of what humans could currently comprehend.

Relying solely on so-called genetic engineering could absolutely not achieve this level.

Ju Ziyun grasped the key to the topic: "So... the reason we are able to have this power is because of what you call 'Evil Energy'?"

Chen Jiajun nodded and said, "You could say that; this power actually does not belong to this world."

"Does not belong to this world? Where does it belong?" Ju Ziyun asked curiously.

The concept of Evil Energy was something she had never come into contact with, so she wanted to get to the bottom of it all.

Unfortunately, Chen Jiajun would not tell them about such things; if one were to speak of it, only he and his subordinates were familiar with this energy in this world.

So Chen Jiajun shook his head and said, "I cannot tell you about this! But you only need to know that this thing cannot bring you power; it can only bring suffering!"

Chen Jiajun was not fooling the two of them with this statement; Evil Energy was power from Hell, and this kind of power would bring much suffering.

The Nobleman sneered and said, "Anyway, we are in your hands, so say whatever you want!"

Chen Jiajun said indifferently to the Nobleman, "Do you think I am lying to you?"

The Nobleman snorted coldly and did not speak.

Chen Jiajun said indifferently to Lao E behind him, "Lao E, let them see what they will become after being invaded by Evil Energy!"

Lao E nodded, and subsequently, an extremely evil, tyrannical, and cold aura emanated from his body.

This caused the temperature of the entire Safe House to drop by several degrees.

Then, right before the terrified eyes of Ju Ziyun and the Nobleman, Lao E's entire person underwent a terrifying change.

That Lao E possessed a human form and a legal identity was the system's doing, but that did not mean he could not reveal his true form.

Following a terrifying transformation, Lao E's entire skin turned into a layer of ink-black.

A pair of terrifying horns sprouted from his forehead, sharp claws grew from his hands, and a pair of bat-like wings spread out from his back, emitting a terrifying aura.

Deep green, terrifying magic runes appeared on his skin all over his body. His eyes turned blood-red, and the gas he exhaled became scorching hot.

His massive body, with its bulging, explosive muscles, was like a mountain of flesh.

This was the original form of a Titan Demon!

Seeing this scene, a feeling of fear welled up from the bottom of the hearts of both Ju Ziyun and the Nobleman.

It was as if they felt the sensation of all misfortune, sadness, and beautiful things disappearing before their eyes.

In less than a moment, the two of them were already soaked in cold sweat.

Lao E's transformation only lasted for a moment before it stopped.

Chen Jiajun said indifferently to the two, "Felt it? If you cannot control the energy inside your bodies, then the result will be like this—monsters that only know how to kill and destroy!"

"Even one day, you will personally kill every living thing around you and destroy the entire human civilization!"

Hearing this, the expression on Ju Ziyun's face was exceptionally grave.

After she ran out of the Laboratory, she felt the most beautiful emotions of humanity.

Whether it was her foster parents or her best friend, they were among the people Ju Ziyun cared about the most.

She absolutely would not allow herself to become such a thing.

Yet the Nobleman's expression was completely different; his face held only shock and fear.

After Chen Jiajun finished explaining to the two, he said to Lao E, "Do you have a way to completely destroy the Evil Energy inside their bodies?"

Lao E shook his head and said, "Not to mention that each time I perform Evil Energy burning on them, it will cause irreversible damage to them, the most important thing is that someone used a method I don't know to plant a spark inside their bodies. My suggestion is... just kill them all!"

Hearing Lao E's extremely cold words, both Ju Ziyun and the Nobleman became vigilant.

They were not lambs waiting to be slaughtered! Chen Jiajun rolled his eyes and said to Lao E, "Don't always think about killing and fighting for no reason; after all, we haven't found the source of the matter yet!"

"They will lose control!" Lao E said to Chen Jiajun after a moment of silence.

Chen Jiajun looked at the young man and woman before him and said indifferently, "At least for now, they won't be your match, right?"

Lao E did not deny it, only nodded.

Chen Jiajun snapped his fingers and said, "Then let's wait until we find the final source before talking!"

Hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Ju Ziyun and the Nobleman both breathed a sigh of relief.

Before Chen Jiajun could finish speaking, Bai Lu walked over.

Bai Lu organized her thoughts and then said, "Through the things in this Chief Bai's brain, I learned that this plan actually started a long time ago!"

"A long time? How long?" Chen Jiajun asked curiously.

Bai Lu said with a serious expression, "This technology has existed since the World War II era, originating from the human experiments of the Nazis during World War II!"

"After the Nazis were defeated, these scientists were absorbed by countries like the United States, and in the 1970s of the last century, they held the Ashiluoma Huiyi on genetic recombination technology."

Chen Jiajun sneered, "I knew it, it must be those United States Gweilo troublemakers! The base nature of these Anglo-Saxon pirates is in their bones."

Chen Jiajun had been curious from the beginning: how could a tiny country like Hanguo conduct research of this level, and even have them research true Superpower users?

Now it seems that things were indeed not as simple as he had imagined.

Presumably, the United States Gweilo were afraid that the matter would be exposed, so they specifically handed the human experimentation work to their colony, Hanguo. (End of chapter)
