Chapter 1140

But the soldiers who went down with her weren't so lucky—they were ordered by General Ji Xia to stay there until she told them to come up.

"Lower the floodgate to block it, then divert river water to drain the sewer—heehee, we need to help Master Jianong speed things up."

General Ji Xia instantly understood Lin Cheng's meaning and immediately ordered the personnel in charge of the sewer's drainage control to lower the floodgate and divert river water to drain everything from the sewer!

It sounded as if a massive volume of water was entering the sewer pipes, forcing them to raise their alert—what was this sound? Master Jianong asked warily.

After carefully examining the blueprints, the disciple reached a conclusion.

"This is the sound of the river water extraction device used during sewer cleaning, but it shouldn't be cleaning time right now? How could it…"

The disciple clearly hadn't grasped the severity of the situation, but Master Jianong realized their group had likely been targeted.

"Run!"

Master Jianong abandoned his disciple, shouted a warning, and sprinted straight toward the pipe entrance. The disciple's confused cries were quickly drowned out by the rushing flood of water.

Behind them, vast quantities of diverted river water poured down from above the pipes as the floodgates opened one after another, rapidly forming a terrifying surge that swept through the narrow sewer with devastating force.

"Oh my god!"

The disciple froze in shock.

But instinct soon drove him to run as fast as he could.

Yet no matter how fast the two ran, they couldn't outpace the torrent of rushing water.

Soon, the water engulfed and swept up both of them, hurling them toward the pipe's exit, along with all the garbage and filth accumulated in Beast Barracks City over the day.

The two were completely submerged in sewage made of filth, their hearts filled with utter despair!

Above, Lin Cheng listened to the deafening flood-like roar from the sewer and watched the red dot on his mini-map rapidly moving—he wore a fatherly smile of satisfaction.

After what Master Jianong did—so inhumane—it's barely enough that he gets to swallow some shit.

I wonder if he'll think this was an accident?

Vast volumes of water drained from the sewer pipe into the Tachi River. The two inside had assumed they'd be flushed directly into the Tachi, but instead slammed headfirst into the lowered floodgate. The disciple's back was turned toward the water, so he fared better—Master Jianong, however, was pinned against the gate, and the surging sewage violently forced its way into his nose.

He didn't cough, and it was bad enough—but the moment he did, even more sewage flooded in. Combined with his nausea and urge to vomit, the mere minutes of flooding subjected Master Jianong to unbearable psychological and physical torment.

"Time's up. Raise the floodgate. Go down and capture Master Jianong."

Seeing the sewage flow from the pipe dwindle and the red dot on his mini-map remain motionless for some time, Lin Cheng told General Ji Xia to go down and apprehend him.

Inside the pipe, as the floodgate rose, General Ji Xia ordered soldiers to enter and capture Master Jianong.

The soldiers had been reluctant, but astonishingly, within moments of entering, five of them spotted Master Jianong and the disciple near the floodgate.

"Master, Master, they found us! Get up!"

Seeing the sudden appearance of soldiers, the disciple immediately hoisted Master Jianong onto his back and fled in the opposite direction. Master Jianong, still vomiting uncontrollably on his back, retained his sanity—he pulled a special potion from his space ring and injected it straight into the disciple's neck.

The sudden sting made the disciple shudder—he stared in disbelief as the potion entered his body.

"Master, you…"

"Don't blame me. If we kill these soldiers, we can escape, right? … You don't want to die, do you? Then kill them!"

"With me here, don't you think you can recover?"

The disciple found this logic convincing—he immediately set Master Jianong aside and, channeling the potion's power, began transforming into a beast. They were already tied together—no one could escape if things went wrong.

"Aaaah!"

The disciple screamed in agony.

Before the soldiers' stunned eyes, the disciple's body rapidly grew taller within seconds—his limbs elongated, sharp claws sprouted, thick fur covered his skin, and his head gradually twisted into that of a wolf.

A human had just turned into a werewolf right before their eyes.
