Chapter 265: The Fourth Checkpoint

Jian Changsheng fell into silence.

He turned his head looking at the black human figure on the next bed, an indescribable flavor in his heart... he faintly felt, this young man next door, seemed to also not be that simple.

He was just about to say something again, when the room door was opened again.

"Time to continue the experiment."

"Wait, didn't his experiment just end not even an hour ago?"

"His situation is special. If we don't quickly experiment to ingest more dosages of Potion, just relying on his current unstable body he will collapse at any time... This time with Dr. Yi taking charge, we should be able to stabilize his situation."

"Perhaps we were too impatient in the last experiment..."

"Alright, take him away first, Dr. Yi will be here immediately."

As the crowd spoke, they pushed Zhao Yi out of the room. Jian Changsheng immediately closed his eyes, pretending to not have woken up yet. Waiting until they completely left, only then did he reveal a gaze of pity.

Of course, to Jian Changsheng this was undoubtedly good news. With these White Coat Wearers all going to conduct experiments, his movements would be much more convenient.

Jian Changsheng took a deep breath, directly biting down ruthlessly on his lips. Scarlet fresh blood immediately flowed out. A surge of tremendous strength filled his body, easily tearing apart all the binding straps.

He lightly flipped off the bed, sweeping a glance at the surroundings through the Glass window at the door. After confirming there was no one, he then opened a tiny crack in the door...

"Off you go."

Jian Changsheng wiped his fingertip between his lips, a drop of fresh blood being lightly flicked out by him, his figure vanishing out of thin air on the spot.

...

"Time is about up."

While Chen Ling continued patrolling on the second floor, he also constantly paid attention to the clock on the wall. Waiting until the minute hand reached the 59th minute, he then vigilantly watched the surroundings, while slowly approaching the channel going towards the third floor.

The moment it hit the hour, a burst of light coughing sounds transmitted from the other end of the channel.

"Spades?" Chen Ling spoke softly.

"It's me." Jian Changsheng's voice rang out. "What do you need me to do?"

"In the central position of the channel, there is an eye facing the second floor, able to distinguish the identities of passing personnel... you deal with it from behind it."

Jian Changsheng's eyes narrowed slightly. He looked towards the direction Chen Ling said, sure enough discovering a mysterious eyeball on the top of the channel, facing the other end of the channel, the flesh and blood on its surface slowly squirming, like a living creature.

Jian Changsheng didn't know what principle this thing worked on, and also didn't know if taking a cloth or some other thing to cover it would be useful. In case the other party really had its own thoughts and reacted, directly warning the entire base, then he would purely be a clown... After pondering for a long time, Jian Changsheng still decided to settle the matter once and for all.

Just to be safe, Jian Changsheng tightly clenched both fists, heavily hammering a few times towards his own ribs. As the bones shattered, he issued a burst of painful muffled groans, fresh blood slowly seeping out from the corners of his mouth...

Under the effects of [Blood Robe], Jian Changsheng's strength rapidly climbed. He flicked out a drop of blood and instantly flashed behind the eyeball, and then fiercely stretched out his hand grabbing towards the back of the eyeball!

Pa——!

The next moment, that eyeball explosively shattered in his palm with a bang!

Jian Changsheng felt his palm was incomparably sticky and greasy, like having grabbed and popped a fish eye bare-handed. But seeing that it seemed to not have caused a big commotion, he still sighed in relief...

"Well done, Spades." Seeing the eyeball was resolved, Chen Ling then straightaway passed through the channel.

Seeing the unfamiliar young Enforcer in front of him, Jian Changsheng was stunned for a moment,

"You... how did you become like this?"

Subsequently he reacted. "You are someone from the Path of the Actor?"

Jian Changsheng after all grew up in the Stars Chamber of Commerce, and also had some understanding regarding some basic information of other Divine Pathways. But in his impression, previously when Chen Ling exchanged blows with him he clearly used [Blood Robe]... No, this guy's skills seemed to have always been very strange.

Chen Ling did not answer. After a mysterious smile, he then went straight deep into the third floor.

"Did you find the Lord of the Aurora?"

"Found him, he's on the fourth floor, I can't go down."

"You've been to the fourth floor's checkpoint?"

"..." Jian Changsheng seemed to have recalled some not-too-good memories, letting out a muffled 'En'.

"What is the checkpoint like?"

"How should I put it..." Jian Changsheng scratched his head. "Have you seen that kind of auntie who, after you enter the elevator, moves a small stool and sits there helping you press the floors?"

Chen Ling was stunned for a moment. "What do you mean? The fourth floor's checkpoint is an auntie?"

"No... not an auntie, it's a very beautiful woman."

Jian Changsheng sighed. "At that time I looked at this channel from the outside and it didn't seem anything special, so I thought to first go in and take a look... As a result just as I walked to that end of the channel, there was a red-haired woman sitting by the door, seemingly reading a book?

I realized something was wrong at the time, and immediately lay down pretending to be a Mushroom, rolling all the way to her side, wanting to probe whether she was exactly an ordinary staff member or something else...

As a result after I rolled over, the moment she lifted her foot she pressed me down! Moreover I felt unable to move my entire body up and down, as if being pressed down by an entire huge mountain."

Hearing this, even Chen Ling couldn't resist being astonished:

"The fourth floor's checkpoint, is a person?"

The previous three checkpoints were made so complicated, being both secret codes and Ritual Artifacts. Chen Ling still thought the fourth checkpoint would be a high-level Ritual Artifact or mechanism. He didn't expect it was actually a person?

What kind of person, could then become the guard of the most confidential and most important region of the entire Aurora Domain?

"And then?"

"And then those White Coat Wearers hurried over ah. Fortunately I pretended to be a Mushroom at the first notice, not letting them raise suspicions... Otherwise, the mission would have already failed by now."

"How was their attitude towards that woman? Did they mention any titles?"

Jian Changsheng thought carefully. "The attitude was quite respectful... As for titles none were mentioned, they just kept saying 'You You You'."

"What clothes was she wearing?"

"An ordinary white shirt, suit pants, other than looking very beautiful there wasn't anything special... Otherwise why would I say, she's like a waiter helping people press elevators?"

Chen Ling fell into deep thought.

He wanted to go deep into the fourth floor of the Aurora Base, and find the Lord of the Aurora, this checkpoint was unavoidable... Then how could he pass through?

"Hearts, do you have a way?" Jian Changsheng looked somewhat urgently towards the back. "This floor's checkpoint was destroyed by us, they will discover it sooner or later... the time left for us is not much ah!

How about we take a gamble, directly charging in front of that woman, joining hands to resolve her?

Looking at her appearance, she doesn't seem very formidable either..."

Chen Ling shook his head, his gaze looking towards the channel leading to the fourth floor, his eyes narrowing slightly:

"No..."

"You just wait on the third floor first... This checkpoint, I will pass it myself."
